Improved Performance for Construction Products Through Rheology
- 30 min

Don't miss out on the opportunity to learn more about the innovative and efficient ways to control the flow characteristics of construction materials by watching this webinar! Hosted by Elementis, a leading producer of various rheology chemistries, this seminar will focus on hectorite clays and acrylic emulsions used in construction applications.
Hectorite clay-based rheological additives offer superior performance properties, such as thixotropic flow and improved workability, compared to traditional cellulose products. By reducing friction between sand and cement particles, these additives provide an enhanced "slip effect" for easier pumping and spraying. Moreover, their platelet structure reduces stickiness, improving application speed and surface quality.
Acrylic emulsions, such as ASE and HASE, are pH activated and easy to incorporate into your formulation. Join us for an in-depth discussion on their chemistry and testing data.
Our Elementis application labs and technical experts will be on hand to support you in maximizing the benefits of these innovative rheology solutions.
