Tile adhesive is a relatively new material, which is used to bond different building materials and create connection and strength in tiling and ceramic work. Due to its ingredients, tile adhesive has many advantages over traditional tiling mortar. These construction materials are sold in ready-made bags. Applying tile adhesive in construction is a simple process, in this way, they mix the ready mortar with water and fill the empty joints between tiles, ceramics, stone and mosaic.
Ceramic tile adhesive compounds
tile adhesive from a combination of chemical and mineral substances such as; Inorganic Portland cement, fine sand and adhesive additives are prepared. In the preparation of tile adhesive, it has been tried to use materials that have the highest adhesive strength, are as light as possible, and also take the least amount of energy and time in the way of execution and tiling.
Characteristics of ceramic tile adhesive
· High adhesive strength
Tile glue has more adhesive strength than other mortars used in tiling. This feature originates from the elements present in it.
· High resistance and strength
Ready tile adhesive after drying has an extraordinary resistance against It has pressure and also strengthens the structure. The high strength of the tile adhesive makes the desired structure less damaged by building loads and events such as earthquakes. The tile is highly resistant to water and moisture. In fact, after using this type of mortar in tiling and drying it, the penetration of water and moisture into the desired structure will be approximately zero. This feature is highly used in the tiling of toilets and bathrooms.
· How to apply tile adhesive simply
Anyone who knows a bit of construction can easily use tile adhesive. The lightness of this type of mortar also helps the ease of implementation of this construction material. Tiling is used less than other mortars. This issue, plus its other unique features, has made tile adhesive considered a low-cost building material.
Applications of ceramic tile adhesive
Tile glue is used to connect many building materials. Tile work, mosaic work, ceramic work, stone work, etc. are among the things that are done using tile glue. These building materials are used in different parts of a building due to its great functionality and also its impermeability against moisture. Different parts of a building where ceramic tile adhesive is used include; Toilets, bathrooms, swimming pools, parking lots, industrial units and outdoor spaces are used.
