RDP powder for Russia
RDP powder for Russia: Revolutionizing Construction Materials
When it comes to construction materials, there is one key ingredient that is gaining increasing popularity for its versatility and affordability – RDP powder. Short for Redispersible Polymer Powder, RDP powder has revolutionized the manufacturing and construction industry with its ability to enhance the properties of building materials such as cement, tile adhesives, and plasters. And now, this game-changing material is available in Russia.
RDP powder is a fine, white powder that is obtained by spray-drying polymer emulsions. It is a highly stable and water-soluble material that has excellent re-dispersibility in water, making it an ideal additive for many construction applications. With its ability to improve the durability, flexibility, and workability of building materials, RDP powder has quickly become a go-to choice for many builders and manufacturers worldwide.
One of the main benefits of RDP powder is its versatility. It can be used in a wide range of applications, from wall putty and ceramic tile adhesives to exterior insulation finishing systems and self-leveling compounds. It is also highly resistant to water, heat, and freeze-thaw cycles, making it ideal for use in harsh environments.
But the benefits of RDP powder extend beyond just its physical properties. It can also aid in cost savings for builders and manufacturers by decreasing the amount of raw materials needed and increasing the shelf life of the finished product. Furthermore, it is an eco-friendly option since it reduces the amount of waste generated during the manufacturing and construction process.
Russia has now joined the list of countries that have access to RDP powder, including Morocco, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Malta, and the United States. With its growing popularity in the construction industry, RDP powder is sure to be in high demand in Russia as well, especially in its booming construction market.
In conclusion, RDP powder is a game-changing material that has taken the manufacturing and construction industry by storm. Its versatility, durability, and eco-friendliness make it an ideal choice for builders and manufacturers worldwide. Now, with its availability in Russia, builders and manufacturers in this region can also reap the benefits of this innovative product.

Why does hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) have an odor?
HPMC can be divided into two types: instant soluble and heat soluble. Instant soluble HPMC quickly disperses in cold water, disappearing in the water. At this stage, the liquid does not have viscosity because HPMC is only dispersed in the water and not completely dissolved. After about 2 minutes, the viscosity of the liquid gradually increases, forming a transparent and viscous colloidal solution. Heat soluble HPMC tends to agglomerate in cold water but can rapidly disperse in hot water, disappearing in it. As the temperature decreases to a certain point, viscosity slowly appears until a transparent and viscous colloidal solution is formed. Heat soluble HPMC can only be used in putty powder and mortar, as it tends to agglomerate in liquid adhesives and coatings and cannot be used effectively. Instant soluble HPMC has a wider range of applications and can be used in putty powder, mortar, liquid adhesives, and coatings without any restrictions.
How to choose the appropriate hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) for different applications?
For putty powder, a viscosity of around 100,000 is generally sufficient, while mortar requires a higher viscosity, around 150,000, to be effective. Moreover, the most important function of HPMC is water retention, followed by thickening. In putty powder, as long as it has good water retention and a lower viscosity (70,000-80,000), it can still be used. Of course, a higher viscosity provides relatively better water retention. However, when the viscosity exceeds 100,000, the impact of viscosity on water retention becomes less significant.
Why does hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) have an odor?
1. Whiteness: Although whiteness alone does not determine the usefulness of HPMC, higher-quality products usually have better whiteness.
2. Fineness: HPMC is typically available in 80 and 100 mesh sizes, with fewer options in 120 mesh. Finer particles generally indicate better quality.
3. Transmittance: When HPMC is dissolved in water and forms a transparent colloidal solution, higher transmittance indicates fewer insoluble impurities.
4. Specific gravity: Higher specific gravity is generally better. A higher specific gravity is often due to a higher content of hydroxypropyl, which results in better water retention.
What is the difference between the cold-water soluble type and the thermal soluble type of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) in the production process?
In simple terms, "non-ionic" refers to a substance that does not ionize in water. Ionization refers to the process in which electrolytes dissolve in specific solvents (such as water or alcohol) and dissociate into freely moving charged ions. For example, table salt we consume daily—sodium chloride (NaCl)—when dissolved in water, ionizes and produces freely moving sodium ions with a positive charge and chloride ions with a negative charge. In other words, when HPMC is placed in water, it does not dissociate into charged ions but exists in molecular form.
