Elotex HD1501 Vinyl acetate and vinyl versatate National Starch and Chemical-Elotex Polyvinyl acetate emulsions & derivatives (PVAcā¦) ADHESIVE Redispersible polymer binder Vinyl acetate and vinyl versatate Particularly suitable for outdoor use in systems containing cement where good water repellant and low water absorption properties are demanded. Use in systems with water repelling and waterproofing properties Redispersible powder with very broad performance spectrum Improved processing properties Improved water retention capability Reduced water demand High final strengths Increased cohesive force (cohesion) Increased adhesive bond strengths, in particular on rigid polystyrene foam slabs and mineral wool slabs Increased flexural strength and abrasion resistance Increased plasticity and flexibility Greatly improved freeze-thaw cycling resistance Reduced cracking Excellent water repelling and waterproofing properties in cement-bound systems Marked reduction of water absorption Denser, more compact mortar structure Very good alkali resistance Redispersible vinyl acetate and vinyl versatate polymer binder. Possesses strong hydrophobicity and water repellency. Provides high final strengths, cohesion and adhesion. Offers resistance to flexural strength, abrasion, freeze-thaw cycling and alkali. Reduces cracking.
