Emulsion joint filler
Ready-mixed joint fillers are emulsion based jointing compounds. As the name suggests they are ready to use and so do not require any water supply at the job site. Ready-mixed joint fillers are designed for embedding tape and are normally used indoors for jointing plasterboards or for repairs. They have a higher flexibility than gypsum based or cement based jointing compounds.
For ready-mixed joint fillers Tylose® H and MO grades with a medium to high viscosity level are recommended.

Building materials
Tylose® is an essential component in many building materials. It is mainly responsible for water retention, consistency and adhesion. The homogeneity, stability and workability of mortars are improved by the use of Tylose®. Using Tylose® enables the manufacturing of modern and efficient construction materials, such as machine plasters and thin bed adhesives.
