Latex Based Systems

Latex-based systems are versatile building materials suitable for interior and exterior finishing of buildings, including the repair of cracks. Latex-based joint compounds are pastes used to fill gaps between wallboards, while joint fillers are ready-to-use mortars used for joint filling. Latex-based putty is a surface smoothing finishing product requiring good sanding ability, adhesive strength, and workability. These products offer reliable performance and are ideal for both commercial and residential use, ensuring a high-quality finish.

YibangCell® cellulose ethers are a versatile product line that enhances the processability and water retention properties of joint compounds, joint fillers, and putties. When used in ready-mixed mortar, these cellulose ethers improve water retention, ensuring that the inorganic cementitious material is fully hydrated. This helps to prevent the reduction of bond strength, as well as the cracking caused by excessive drying. Additionally, cellulose ether has a certain air-entraining effect, which is particularly evident in the products designed for ready-mixed mortar. These products produce appropriate, uniform, and small air-entrainment, which improves the strength and plastering of the mortar. Moreover, the cellulose ether product designed for ready-mixed mortar has a retarding effect, which prolongs the opening time of the mortar and reduces the difficulty of construction. Overall, YibangCell® cellulose ethers provide excellent benefits for various construction applications, ensuring high-quality results and reliable performance.
