culminal™ UP 1268 modified methylhydroxyethylcellulose


introducing culminal™ UP 1268 modified methylhydroxyethylcellulose (MHEC), an enhanced performing additive for premium quality cementitious tile adhesives (CTA)

description

The trend in the construction industry is for larger tiles and more significant amounts of low carbon footprint cement, which requires formulations with longer open time, leading to greater adhesion to the wall. These functional attributes are among many in achieving superior performance for today's cementitious tile adhesives (CTA).

Ashland addresses these performance gaps with its latest innovation, culminal™ UP 1268 modified MHEC. Using concepts for culminal™ PLUS and culminal™ UP, Ashland integrated multiple advanced technologies to create an enhanced product through hybrid technology.

Culminal UP™ 1268 modified MHEC delivers the best of both technologies, specifically excellent wetting properties and high early and final adhesion strength. This modification can be used in regular and fast-set CTA.
