APPLICATION of Tylose MHF 10015 P4: CONSTRUCTION

Tylose MHF 10015 P4

Product properties

Tylose MHF 10015 P4 is a medium viscosity, modified methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose.

Tylose MH 10015 P4 is a water-soluble, non-ionic, modified methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose powder with standard etherification. 

Tylose MH 10015 P4 provides fast consistency development, very high sag resistance and water demand, moderate water retention and influence on cement hydration, and high heat stability. 

This grade of methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC) is ideal for use in cement tile adhesives.

Packaging, storage and safety instructions

This Tylose type is supplied in multilayer paper bags with polyethylene intermediate layer and/or in big bags. 

When kept in clean, dry conditions in its original packing, Tylose can be stored for a long time. 

During storage a slow loss of viscosity can be measured. Tylose absorbs water from moist air. 

Once opened, container must be resealed and kept tightly closed.

Like all fine particle organic substances, cellulose ethers constitute a dust explosion hazard. 

Dust formation and deposits must be kept to a minimum so that no ignitable dust/air mixtures can form. 

Ignition sources such as naked flames, hot surfaces, sparks and static electricity should be avoided.
