Abstract

See full text

A cellulose ether blend useful as an adhesive in finishing compounds, comprising a high viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose having a viscosity from about 4,000 to about 120,000 cps and a low viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose having a viscosity from about 5 to about 3,000 cps, wherein the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose blend is at least from about 10:1 to about 1:2 high viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose to low viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose. Both the high and low viscosity cellulose ethers have a methoxyl substitution of about 25 to about 32 weight percent and a hydroxypropyl substitution of about 3 to about about 13 weight percent. The cellulosic blend can be used in tape joint compounds, tile adhesives, grouts, spray textures and stucco compositions.
