"Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether is a game-changer for construction materials, offering excellent water retention and workability with minimal dosage requirements."
Introduction
Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether is a white, powdered polysaccharide compound derived from natural plants. It shares a similar chemical structure with cellulose and offers comparable properties. This valuable additive is produced through modification, etherification, and drying processes, without any plasticizing agents.
When combined with cellulose ether, HPS starch ether works perfectly in neutral and alkaline systems. Additionally, it's compatible with most additives used in gypsum and cement products. One of its most impressive features is rapid thickening ability at very low dosages (typically between 0.01%-0.1%), which provides powerful water control and anti-slip properties.
As NOVASTAR, a trademark under LANDU, we specialize in manufacturing and developing high-quality Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether specifically for building materials. Our products enhance the performance of:
With our strong R&D capabilities and comprehensive service approach, NOVASTAR provides not just HPS starch ether but also modified additives, tailored formulations, and detailed guidance. This ensures that we meet every client's specific requirements.
Functions
The high hydroxypropyl content in starch ether creates stable hydrophobicity in the system. This important feature converts free water into bound water, which significantly improves water retention. As a result, Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether provides:
These benefits are especially crucial for various types of mortars in construction applications.
When hydroxypropyl groups are substituted in the starch ether, they increase expansion in water. This process compresses the space for particle flow, which naturally increases viscosity and creates a thickening effect. Therefore, Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether significantly contributes to anti-slip performance in vertical applications.
Mortar containing HPS starch ether can be easily applied without sticking to tools. Once the external force is removed, the viscosity increases quickly. This thixotropic property makes Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether-based mortars much easier to pump and apply, saving time and labor on construction sites.

Applications
In plaster and skim coat mortars, fluidity and sag resistance often work against each other. However, NOVASTAR Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether perfectly balances these properties. This makes it especially valuable for machine-spraying plaster applications that require both high flowability and excellent anti-sagging performance.
NOVASTAR HPS starch ether quickly adjusts the viscosity of tile adhesives while ensuring durable installation. It's particularly important for Grade E tile adhesives, which must maintain an extended opening time of 20-30 minutes and achieve a tensile strength of 0.5MPa. These requirements make Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether an essential ingredient in high-performance tile adhesive formulations.
With an impressive temperature range from -30°C to 80°C, NOVASTAR Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether works excellently in adhesion mortars for EIFS finish systems. It improves water retention and adhesion while preventing cracking and shrinkage caused by temperature changes.
