Creating a perfect tile adhesive formula depends on using the right additives. LANDU offers four key ingredients that transform ordinary tile adhesives into exceptional bonding agents. Our additives help your formula achieve better water retention, stronger adhesion, and improved workability. Moreover, they make your product easier to use and more reliable for installers.
| Additive Type | Main Benefits | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| HPMC | Water retention, anti-sag, workability | General-purpose tile adhesive formulas |
| HEMC | Enhanced bonding, flexibility, reduced shrinkage | Premium tile adhesive formulas |
| RDP | Flexibility, adhesion strength, thermal resistance | High-performance tile adhesive formulas |
| HPS | Quick thickening, improved workability, anti-slip | Fast-setting tile adhesive formulas |

A quality tile adhesive formula needs to bond tiles firmly to surfaces. Additionally, it must remain workable long enough for proper installation. Furthermore, it should prevent tiles from sliding down vertical surfaces. Finally, it needs to maintain strength over time despite temperature changes and moisture exposure.
The right additives in your tile adhesive formula make all these properties possible. Therefore, selecting the proper ingredients is crucial for manufacturing reliable products.
LANDERCOLL HPMC improves your tile adhesive formula by keeping water in the mix longer. This additive creates the perfect environment for cement hydration. As a result, your adhesive develops maximum strength. Also, HPMC extends open time, giving installers more flexibility during application.
How HPMC enhances your tile adhesive formula:
"Adding just 0.2-0.3% HPMC to your tile adhesive formula can increase water retention by up to 98%, dramatically improving bond strength." - LANDU Research Center
LANDERCOLL HEMC takes your tile adhesive formula to the next level. This premium additive combines excellent water retention with enhanced bonding strength. Furthermore, it creates a smoother, more workable mixture that spreads easily. Most importantly, HEMC reduces cracking and improves long-term durability.
Benefits of HEMC in your tile adhesive formula:
ACCURATE RDP transforms your tile adhesive formula with flexibility and strength. This powerful binder creates a polymer network that securely bonds tiles to various substrates. Additionally, RDP allows your adhesive to handle structural movements without cracking. Consequently, installations last longer, even in challenging environments.
Why RDP is essential for modern tile adhesive formulas:
Adding 3-5% RDP to your tile adhesive formula can increase tensile adhesion strength by up to 300% compared to standard cement-based adhesives. This makes it perfect for large-format tiles and outdoor applications.
NOVASTAR HPS makes your tile adhesive formula more user-friendly. This rapid thickener creates the perfect consistency instantly. Therefore, installers can apply your product more easily. Also, HPS prevents sagging on vertical surfaces while maintaining excellent water retention. As a result, tiles stay in place during installation.
How HPS transforms your tile adhesive formula:

C1 and C2 are classification standards for tile adhesive formulas. C1 adhesives provide standard adhesion strength (≥0.5 N/mm²). Meanwhile, C2 adhesives offer improved adhesion (≥1.0 N/mm²). Adding LANDU RDP to your formula helps achieve C2 classification. This results in stronger bonds, especially for large or heavy tiles.
For standard tile adhesive formulas, add 0.2-0.3% HPMC by weight. For premium formulas, you may increase to 0.3-0.4%. The exact amount depends on your specific requirements. Our technical team can help you determine the optimal dosage for your product.
Yes, combining additives often creates superior tile adhesive formulas. For example, using HPMC with RDP provides excellent water retention and flexibility. Similarly, combining HEMC with HPS improves both adhesion and workability. Our experts can recommend the best combinations for your specific needs.
For outdoor tile adhesive formulas, increase the RDP content to 3-5%. Additionally, select HPMC or HEMC grades with good temperature stability. Finally, include waterproofing additives for maximum protection. These adjustments help your formula withstand weather changes and temperature fluctuations.
