ORP® Hydroflex 60
Hydrophobic Redispersible Powder for Dry-Mix Mortars

INTRODUCTION
ORP Hydroflex 60 is a redispersible powder produced by drying an emulsion of Vinyl Acrylic copolymer with
PVOH as protective colloid. The specific chemical composition of the polymer allows coalescence of the
redispersed polymer at low temperatures and provides good adhesion to cementitious substrates.

ORP Hydroflex 60 is used to modify mixtures containing hydraulic binders. Due to its particular chemical /
physical composition, ORP Hydroflex 60 improves adhesion, abrasion resistance,flexibility and water
resistance of mortars containing hydraulic binders such as cement, gypsum or lime. Especially in the systems
that require water resistance, flexibility and abrasion resistance at the same time ORP Hydroflex 60 provides
excellent performance.

APPLICATION AREAS
Tile Grouts:
Having excellent abrasion resistance, flexibility and water resistance ORP Hydroflex 60 can be used in tile grouts
formulations, between 2.0 – 4.0 %.

ETICS (Exterior Thermal Insulation Coating Systems) Plasters:


Because of providing excellent water resistance, flexibility and compressive strength ORP Hydroflex 60 can be
used also in ETICS plaster formulations, between 2.0 – 4.0 %

Water Proofing Mortars:


ORP Hydroflex 60 can be used in one component water proofing mortars, between 7.0 – 15.0% because of
having excellent flexibility, hydrophobicity and water resistance.

PRODUCT HANDLING – STORAGE – SHELFLIFE

Packaging: Pallet with 18 paper bags, each 25 kg, also 500 or 1000 kg of big bags.
Packages must be stored in a dry and cool warehouse. Pallets must not be stacked on top of each other to avoid
caking due to the thermoplasticity of the polymer. Packing must be closed well after usage for protection against
humidity and caking. It has to be used within 6 months after the date of delivery.
