Master Flow
Whatsapp Order
Master Flow is a high-performance concrete plasticizer and superplasticizer designed to improve the workability and flow of concrete mixtures without increasing water content. It enhances concrete slump, making placement and compaction easier, especially in large pours or complex formworks. Master Flow promotes better dispersion of cement particles, leading to improved strength development, reduced bleeding, and increased durability. It is widely used in ready-mix concrete, precast elements, and infrastructure projects to achieve superior surface finish and mechanical properties.

Calcium Chloride Dihydrate
Calcium Chloride Dihydrate (CaCl₂·2H₂O) is a hydrated form of calcium chloride, appearing as white crystalline granules or flakes containing two molecules of water of crystallization. It is highly soluble in water and exhibits strong hygroscopic and deliquescent properties. This compound is widely used in industrial, pharmaceutical, food, and agricultural sectors due to its moisture absorption, de-icing, dust control, and calcium supplementation capabilities. Compared to anhydrous calcium chloride, the dihydrate form has lower hygroscopicity but is easier to handle and store.
Calcium Hydroxide (Hydrated Lime)
Calcium Hydroxide, commonly known as Hydrated Lime or Slaked Lime, is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ca(OH)â‚‚. It appears as a white, odorless, powder or crystalline solid. It is produced by treating quicklime (calcium oxide) with water in a process called slaking. Calcium Hydroxide is moderately soluble in water, forming a strongly alkaline solution known as limewater. It is widely used in construction, environmental, chemical, agricultural, and water treatment applications due to its caustic, neutralizing, and flocculating properties.
Caustic Soda Pearls
Caustic Soda Pearls are small, solid, spherical particles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) produced by a controlled cooling and solidification process. These pearls offer superior flowability, uniform size distribution, and reduced dust generation compared to flake or powder forms. They are highly soluble in water, exhibiting a strong alkaline nature with vigorous exothermic dissolution. Caustic Soda Pearls are widely used across industries including chemical manufacturing, water treatment, pulp and paper processing, and detergents due to their purity, ease of handling, and efficient dissolution characteristics.
Cellulose Ether
 Cellulose ether refers to a group of chemically modified cellulose derivatives where hydroxyl groups on the cellulose backbone are substituted with ether groups such as methyl, hydroxyethyl, or carboxymethyl groups. These modifications improve solubility, viscosity, and film-forming properties while maintaining biodegradability and non-toxicity. Cellulose ethers are white to off-white powders or granules that dissolve in water to form viscous, stable solutions. They are widely used as thickeners, binders, stabilizers, and film formers in industries such as construction, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, and paper.
CMC Sodium (Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium)
CMC Sodium, or Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium, is a water-soluble anionic cellulose ether derived from natural cellulose. It appears as a white to off-white, odorless, tasteless powder or granule. Known for its excellent thickening, stabilizing, emulsifying, and water-retention properties, CMC is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, personal care, industrial, and detergent applications. It functions by modifying the rheological properties of solutions and suspensions, offering control over viscosity and flow. Its biocompatibility, non-toxicity, and biodegradability make it suitable for both human use and environmentally friendly formulations.
Corn Starch Industrial Grade
Corn Starch Industrial Grade is a finely milled, white powder derived from the endosperm of maize (Zea mays). Unlike food-grade starch, industrial grade is tailored for non-food applications where its thickening, adhesive, and film-forming properties are exploited. It consists primarily of amylose and amylopectin polysaccharides and is valued for its biodegradability, renewability, and cost-effectiveness. Industrial corn starch is used extensively as a raw material or functional additive across a wide variety of manufacturing processes, including paper, textiles, adhesives, and packaging industries.
Eagle Homopolymer 510/50 50%
Eagle Homopolymer 510/50 50% is a high-purity homopolymer solution, typically referring to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) or a similar water-soluble polymer supplied at 50% concentration. This product offers excellent film-forming, adhesive, thickening, and stabilizing properties, making it versatile in applications such as adhesives, textile sizing, paper coating, and packaging. The homopolymer’s controlled molecular weight and solution viscosity provide consistent performance and ease of handling. The 50% aqueous solution form facilitates easy mixing and incorporation into various formulations.
Master Cast
Master Cast is a high-quality gypsum-based casting material designed for producing precise and durable molds, prototypes, and decorative castings. It offers excellent flowability, rapid setting time, and high strength after curing. Master Cast is widely used in ceramics, sculpture, dentistry, and industrial mold-making applications where fine detail reproduction and surface smoothness are critical.
