HPS for Wall Putty
Tenessy HPS for Wall Putty
Hydroxypropyl Starch Ether (HPS) is a high-performance additive widely used in cement-based and gypsum-based wall putty formulations. Derived from natural starch and modified through etherification, HPS provides excellent water retention, thickening, and workability enhancement.
In wall putty, HPS plays a critical role in improving application smoothness, open time, and overall consistency. It ensures that the putty spreads easily on walls, forms a strong bond with the substrate, and provides a smooth, even surface ready for painting or finishing.
How Does HPS Work in Wall Putty?
When added to wall putty formulations, HPS dissolves in water to form a stable, viscous solution
that interacts with cement particles and fillers. This reaction enhances the physical properties
of the putty in several ways:
- Improves water retention, preventing premature drying and enhancing adhesion to the wall.
- Increases viscosity and consistency, resulting in a smoother, creamier texture during application.
- Enhances workability, making it easier to spread and level without sagging or cracking.
- Extends open time, allowing applicators more flexibility and reducing waste.
Through these combined effects, HPS ensures a stable and easy-to-use wall putty
with superior surface quality.

Benefits of Using HPS in Wall Putty
- Excellent Workability – Provides a smooth, easy-to-spread texture for both hand and machine application.
- Enhanced Water Retention – Keeps the surface moist for proper curing, resulting in stronger adhesion and fewer cracks.
- Improved Consistency – Ensures a uniform mixture with excellent leveling and surface coverage.
- Longer Open Time – Gives applicators more time to adjust and finish the surface before hardening.
- Better Surface Finish – Produces a denser, smoother, and more paint-ready wall surface.
- Crack Resistance – Reduces surface shrinkage and prevents micro-cracking.
