High-performance VAE RDP for self-levling tile adhesives
1. Flexible VAE RDP plays a crucial role in enhancing the performance of Self-Leveling Compounds(SLC),particularly in demanding or thick-bed applications.
2. Differences & Specific Applications in Self-leveling mortars
| RDP Type | Glass Transition Temp. (Tg) | MFFT Range | Dosage Level in SLU | Primary Mechanical Impact on SLU |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rigid RDP | ≥ +10 °C to +16 °C | +4 °C to +8 °C | 1.5% – 3.0% | Maximizes compressive strength (>25-35 MPa), abrasion resistance, and surface hardness; prevents dusting. |
| Semi-Flexible RDP | -5 °C to +8 °C | 0 °C to +4 °C | 1.0% – 2.5% | Balances compressive strength (>20 MPa) with moderate flexural strength and substrate bond. |
| Flexible RDP | -15 °C to 0 °C | ≤ 0 °C | 2.0% – 5.0% | Enhances strain elongation, flexural strength, and dynamic crack bridging on wood/steel subfloors. |
| Hydrophobic RDP | -5 °C to +10 °C | 0 °C to +5 °C | 1.0% – 2.5% | Reduces water absorption (<5%), blocks capillary damp, and prevents efflorescence in outdoor SLU. |
Key Advantages of Rigid Key Benefits of Rigid RDP in Self-Leveling Mortars
1. Superior Flexibility and Crack Resistance
-- Self-leveling mortars are subject to thermal expansion,contraction,and subtle structural movements.Flexible RDP lowers the elastic modulus(E-modulus)of the cured compound,allowing the floor layer to absorb mechanical stresses without cracking,shrinking,or tenting.
2. High Bond Strength and Adhesion
-- VAE RDP significantly improves interfacial adhesion between the self-leveling underlayment/overlayment and various substrates—including wooden floors,existing tiles,and dense non-porous concrete—preventing delamination over time.
3. Excellent Impact and Abrasion Resistance
VAE RDP forms a continuous latex film within the cementitious matrix.This flexible polymer network increases toughness,resistance to heavy dynamic loads,rolling chair casters,and foot traffic.
4. Improved Deflection Tolerance on Critical Substrates
When applying self-leveling compounds over flexible or"yielding"substrates(such as plywood,OSB,or heated floor systems), flexible VAE RDP provides the needed elasticity to accommodate subfloor movement.
5. Enhanced Cohesion and Cohesive Strength
VAE RDP acts as a secondary binder along with cement and gypsum,binding fine aggregates together and enhancing internal cohesive strength,which reduces dusting and surface chalking.
Package and Storage
| STORAGE GUIDELINES | |
|---|---|
| Dry Conditions | Store in a cool, dry place with relative humidity (RH) below 50%–60%. Note: RPP is thermoplastic and hygroscopic; elevated temperatures combined with moisture cause powder to soften and form hard clumps. |
| Sealing Requirement | Keep in original, unopened multi-layer paper bags with PE inner liners. Reseal opened bags tightly immediately after use. |
| Environmental Safety | Keep away from direct sunlight, rain, and heat sources (e.g., radiators or steam pipes). |
| PACKAGING & LOGISTICS | |
| Standard Packaging | • 25 kg net weight multi-layer paper-plastic bag • 500 kg jumbo bag on pallet (Customized packaging available upon request) |
| Container Loading (FCL) | • 20' FCL: 520 bags = 13 metric tons • 40' HQ FCL: 1,120 bags = 28 metric tons |
| Shipping Time | 5 – 10 business days |
