Product Applications
SE-22 is suitable for dry-mix mortars, adhesives, and plaster systems that need better on-site handling and stable vertical application. Typical uses include:
Tile adhesive formulations to help reduce sagging and improve application stability
Mortars to enhance workability and consistency during mixing and troweling
Plasters / renders for smoother application and improved wetting
Roller plasters for easier spreading and more uniform finishing

Dosage Guideline:
For best results, the recommended dosage should be optimized based on your raw materials and target performance.

Packaging & Delivery

- Standard packaging:25 kg net paper bags or on cIients’ requirement
- OEM or neutral packaging available upon request
- Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): 3 metric tons.
- Typical lead time: 7–15 days after order confirmation
- Trade terms: FOB / CIF / DDP under Incoterms® 2020
Storage and Shelf life
- Store in a dry and cool place.
- High humidity and temperature increase the risk of caking.
- Do not stack pallets on top of each other to avoid compaction.
- “Best use before end” date is on the label; storage beyond it doesn’t necessarily mean unusable, but required properties must be checked for quality assurance.
Safety & Compliance
SE-22 Starch Ether is safe, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly. It complies with ISO 9001 and EU REACH standards.
For detailed handling and safety information, refer to the MSDS.

SE-22 is a Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether (HPS) additive designed for building dry-mix systems to improve workability (constructability), provide good sag resistance, and enhance wettability for smoother application and finishing.
SE-22 is suitable for dry-mix building formulations such as tile adhesives, mortars, plasters/renders, and roller plasters, and related construction mixes.
SE-22 provides sag resistance (anti-sag), helping the mix hold on vertical surfaces and improving application stability during troweling/spreading.
