Get to know ceramic tile adhesive

Modern people are paying more and more attention to decoration, and everyone likes a warm and comfortable house decoration style with harmonious matching and overall color tones. But it's difficult for us to judge the quality of the decoration ourselves, just like when laying tiles, we often use tile adhesive as an auxiliary material. Do you really know how to use it? Here are a few small knowledge about ceramic tile adhesive that you haven't heard of before.

1.  Tile adhesive is easy to use

Real tile adhesive is actually easy to use, just add water and stir to use. Tile adhesive is a product made by precise proportioning of cement, sand, and other additives, without the need for additional materials. Moreover, tiling is also convenient, and when paired with a toothed scraper, it can greatly improve work efficiency. By following the product instructions, you can quickly learn how to use it.

2. The quality of tile adhesive is very good

Ceramic tile adhesive is a kind of high polymer ceramic tile adhesive mortar. The bonding strength of ceramic tile adhesive is far more than that of cement mortar, and it has better water resistance, frost resistance, aging resistance, and convenient application effect. Can effectively paste large sized ceramic tiles and stone materials to prevent the occurrence of hollowing and falling bricks. The performance of ceramic tile adhesive has become mature and reliable. In many developed countries, ceramic tile adhesive has already replaced cement. In the domestic construction industry, it has also been used for decades.

3. Ceramic tile adhesive is not entirely rigid

CTA is a polymer modified cement-based ceramic tile adhesive using dry powder pre-mixing technology. Due to the varying cement content in different types of ceramic tile adhesives, not all ceramic tile adhesives are rigid. With the development of material technology, various flexible tile adhesives have emerged, and flexible tile adhesives are more suitable for use in areas where there is vibration at the base, such as elevator shafts, flues, door frames, etc.

4 ceramic tile adhesive tiling does not require soaking tile in water

When many craftsmen use traditional cement to tile, they are accustomed to soaking the tiles in water first. In fact, when using tile adhesive, the tiles do not need to be soaked in advance because the tile adhesive itself has good water retention. This is the advantage of ceramic tile adhesive compared to traditional cement mortar.

5. Ceramic tile adhesive is safe and environmentally friendly

When hearing about tile glue, many people think that the word "glue" means glue, which in everyone's eyes means unhealthy, environmentally unfriendly, and contains formaldehyde. So there is also a saying that goes, 'Where there is glue, there is formaldehyde.' So is it true? Ceramic tile adhesive is an ideal green and healthy material composed of inorganic aggregates, high molecular polymers, and other materials. This type of material adopts clean production technology, and the raw materials are non-toxic, pollution-free, radiation free, and environmentally friendly. So tile adhesive does not contain harmful substances and will not cause harm to the human body.

Ceramic tile adhesive is favored by people for its ideal bonding effect and beautiful appearance. It has stronger adhesion and can not only firmly adhere to tiles, but also be used for the installation of gypsum boards and fiber boards, effectively preventing phenomena such as hollowing and falling tiles. Therefore, ceramic tile adhesive has become an excellent choice for tile laying!
