What is Redispersible Polymer Powder?

RDP is a dry polymer powder that redisperses in water to form a flexible polymer solution, used to improve adhesion and flexibility in construction materials.

Celotech RDP-Vinabond® can prevent structural failure and enhance your construction materials longevity dramatically. As a versatile, spray-dried thermoplastic resin, Vinabond® upgrades mortar performance significantly to meet the demands of modern, sustainable building solutions.

Redispersible Polymer Powder Uses:

  1. Exterior Systems (EIFS)
  2. Tile Adhesives
  3. Specialty Mortars
  4. High-Performance Compatibility

Functions of Redispersible Polymer Powder

  1. Enhances Adhesion – Improves bonding strength in tile adhesives, mortars, and repair compounds.
  2. Increases Flexibility – Reduces cracking in cement-based materials under stress or movement.
  3. Improves Workability – Enhances mortar consistency for easier application and finishing.
  4. Strengthens Durability – Extends the lifespan of construction materials in harsh conditions.
  5. Enables Crack Resistance – Prevents micro-cracks in plasters, renders, and self-leveling floors.
  6. Facilitates Redispersion – Reforms a stable emulsion when mixed with water for consistent performance.
  7. Compatible with Additives – Works synergistically with cellulose ethers and other modifiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, RDP works well with:

  • Cellulose ethers

  • Starch ethers

  • Defoamers

  • Air-entraining agents

  • Retarders/accelerators

Grades vary by:

  • Polymer composition

  • Glass transition temperature (Tg)

  • Minimum film-forming temperature (MFFT)

  • Particle size distribution

  • Redispersion characteristics

Typically 2–5% of the dry mortar weight, depending on performance requirements.
RDP plays an important role in polymer-modified mortars nowadays. Because RDP can improve flexibility and crack resistance, increase adhesion, extend open time, increase cohesion and strength, improve workability and impermeability.
When mixed with water, RDP redisperses into a film-forming polymer that enhances adhesion, flexibility and durability in cement-based products.

Common polymer bases include:

  • Vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE) – widely used due to good adhesion and flexibility

  • Styrene-acrylate(SA) – offers excellent water resistance and weatherability

  • Pure acrylics (Acrylic polymers) – used when superior UV and alkali resistance is needed

  • Usually: Vinyl acetate & Vinyl versatate (VeoVa) copolymers – sometimes used for enhanced hydrophobicity
