Dry Mortar

Improve Workability and Anti-Slipping in the Mortar
The trend of using dry mix mortar is increasing by 6-10% globally every year since there are many benefits compared to conventional mortar such as consistent quality, lower operating cost, and improved productivity by using automatic mixing and spraying machine. The most important additives for dry mortar application are water retaining agent, thickener and rheology modifier. Water retaining agent is used to hold water for cement hydration and the rheology modifier is added to adjust mortar flow-ability for smooth application.

Starch Ether is known as a rheology modifier to improve workability and provide anti-sagging to mortar. You can now experience the new innovation of dry mortar which productively allows convenience while troweling, time-saving, stable quality, viscosity and cost optimization with our innovative starch ether as an additive.

SMS’s starch ether products are developed to provide these functions suitable to many types of mortar. e.g. plastering, masonry, repair mortars, skim coat, wall putty, tile adhesive, in both cement and gypsum-based products.
