In order for the tile adhesive to reliably fix the cladding, it is necessary to maintain specifications mixtures according to GOST. This task lies largely on the shoulders of the manufacturer, but consumer awareness, proper use of the mixture and acceptable storage conditions are no less important.

The main criterion is the place of operation

Main types

The properties of tile adhesive vary depending on its composition. The components and their ratio directly determine the compressive strength and density of the mixture. For each type of material, GOST prescribes its own requirements.

The following adhesive compositions are most often used for laying tiles:

• Cement– this includes Portland cement, sand and various types of modifying additives. It is easy to handle, but hardens quite quickly, so it is not recommended to prepare a large volume of the mixture.
• Dispersive– consists of epoxy resin and a special hardener. To work with it, a catalyst is introduced. This adhesive has properties such as strength and water resistance, making it well suited for the bathroom.
• Polyurethane– stable polyurethane particles and hardeners are added to the composition of such a mixture. It is used even in unfavorable environments.

Cement mortar- a common and simple option

Storage and shelf life

Depending on what the tile adhesive is made of, not only its characteristics vary, but also its shelf life. Taking into account these features, two types are distinguished:

• dry powder;
• ready-made mastic.

For the first group of mixtures, it is important to observe the storage period and conditions. The cement mortar must be in a dry place and not in contact with direct sun rays. The average warranty is 6-9 months.

Here's the expiration date liquid glue depends on when the package is opened. To ensure that its properties remain at the proper level and comply with GOST, it is not advisable to store excess mixture. A couple of months are allowed, but there is no guarantee of quality.

Record the opening date, for example, with a marker on the can

Glue weight

The indicator you are interested in is not the gross of the pack itself, but the average consumption of the mixture per square meter coated surface.

Approximate consumption is also controlled by GOST standards. When calculating, it is taken as a basis specific gravity tile adhesive used with a layer thickness of only one millimeter. This value is indicated on the packaging.

To calculate volume weight required tile adhesive, determine the thickness of the composition layer. It depends on the size of the tile and the quality of the surface. The total weight per square meter is determined simple multiplication specific gravity per layer thickness in millimeters. Then multiply by the surface area. This way you can determine the gross value of the mixture you need.

Specifications

Tile adhesive has different composition, but according to the standards, it must meet the established requirements of GOST:

• Strength – defined as the maximum permissible load on the surface and compressive forces.
• Density - measured in grams per square meter, it additionally characterizes the weight of the mixture.
• Shrinkage is surface deformation.
• Viscosity is the concentration of adhesive particles and the ability to fix the cladding without displacing the base.
• Drying speed affects the shelf life, since hardened glue cannot be used. Consumption directly depends on density. Defined as the weight of the mixture per square area.
• Elasticity - the composition should be applied well and not crumble.
• Water resistance – does not allow moisture to pass through.
• Adhesion is the quality of adhesion to various types of surfaces.

These are the main technical characteristics according to GOST, which you need to focus on when purchasing a mixture.

Viscosity and drying speed - main characteristics

Shrinkage

One of the most important indicators to determine the advisability of using a particular composition is the degree of shrinkage of the tile adhesive. Pay special attention to this property when finishing the surfaces of newly constructed buildings and repaired coatings.

GOST sets the maximum acceptable standards For of this property. Before purchasing glue, pay attention to this indicator. To prevent the use of an unsuitable composition from resulting in you having to carry out repeated repairs within a year, in most cases it is recommended to use a mixture with zero shrinkage.

If we are talking about wood, buy elastic tile composition, which is able to compensate for the movement of the base.

Density and compressive strength

The thickness of the glue layer determines its wet height. In this case, the weight of the composition is taken into account. This indicator indirectly demonstrates the presence of certain impurities in the solution.

Another parameter characterizes the tile adhesive in an already hardened state. Compressive strength is essentially the maximum permissible pressure to the surface during operation. The class of concrete is determined in the same way. The higher this indicator, the better the strength of the coating, and therefore, it will last much longer even under conditions of significant load placed on it.

Terms of use

In order not to degrade the quality characteristics of the tile adhesive, you need to handle it correctly.

Appearance and strength of masonry

An important point is to determine the volume of the required mixture. Here they calculate the weight of the glue per area to be treated and mix only as much as you have time to use before the components harden. Epoxy glue is more difficult to work with. It is diluted using a catalyst. Due to its high viscosity, application may be difficult.

The installation process involves using a spatula to spread a layer of tile adhesive over the surface. The size of the teeth is selected according to the thickness of the solution. In case of serious unevenness, it is additionally applied to the tile itself. A layer that is too thin or thick will impair the quality of the installation. It is important to remove voids and air accumulation under the tiles. Excess at the joints is removed immediately after compaction, before hardening.

Choosing a suitable adhesive for tiles is possible only on the basis of a thorough analysis of all its characteristics and comparing them with your requirements. Take into account the reputation of the manufacturer and the storage conditions of the product in the store or warehouse. Proper Use guarantees the quality of the cladding.

Tile adhesive is the second most important material, the quality and properties of which determine the final result when tiling surfaces. The range of adhesive compositions offered by modern manufacturers is wide, so without knowing the specific characteristics various types adhesives and comparing them with GOST requirements, it is difficult to make a choice in favor of a specific material.

In order for the tile adhesive to reliably hold the cladding, it is important to maintain the technical characteristics of the mixture in accordance with GOST

To choose the right mixture, consider the following questions:

• general requirements for adhesive mixtures;
• groups of tile adhesives;
• properties and areas of application.

General requirements for tile adhesive

All types of adhesive mixtures for laying tiles must have a certain set of necessary technical characteristics, which, depending on the type of adhesive, may differ in value. Let us list these properties.

During operation (before the solution hardens):

• ease of preparation;
• elasticity (should fit well on the surfaces to be glued);
• sufficient lifespan (the ability to work out the prepared amount of mixture, correct displaced tiles before the glue hardens);
• high adhesion (adhesion of the solution to the surfaces of the material and base);
• low fluidity and resistance to slipping (holding the tiles in place on a vertical surface).

First of all, the glue must have increased water and frost resistance.

After the tile adhesive has cured:

• compressive and shear strength;
• water resistance;
• heat resistance;
• frost resistance;
• resistance to chemical agents;
• elasticity (the ability to absorb the stresses of the cladding material that arise when temperatures change).

Groups of tile adhesives

Based on the material of their components, all adhesive mixtures for ceramics are divided into 3 groups:

• compositions for cement based;
• water-dispersed solutions;
• polyurethane adhesives;
• adhesives based on epoxy reactive resins.

Let's look at these groups and their subgroups.

Cement-based compositions

Cement-based adhesives are a dry mixture of cement, sand and certain chemical components, the set of which may vary. The requirements for the technical characteristics of cement adhesive mixtures are set out in GOST 31357-2007 “Dry building mixtures with a cement binder. General technical conditions", GOST 31358-2007 "Dry construction floor mixtures with cement binder. Specifications" and GOST 4.233-86 "Construction mortars. Nomenclature of indicators".

Tile cement adhesive is a dry mortar

Characteristics

These adhesives, depending on the variety, are intended for finishing external and internal surfaces with tiles made of natural and artificial materials. Standard packaging of the mixture is 25 kg bags.

The specific gravity of the dry material is on average 1.3 g/cm3, the density of the ready-to-use solution is 1.8 g/cm3.

The compressive strength of fully cured adhesive, according to GOST, must be more than 10 MPa for universal compositions and at least 15 MPa for materials marked “Elastic”, “With increased fixation” and “For floors”.

The composition of the tile adhesive is mixed with water according to the instructions clearly stated on the packaging and used in two ways - by applying it to ceramics and laying it on the surface of the base. The cement in the solution is gray or white (for glass tiles and mosaics made of smalt) flowers.

Cement-based adhesive solutions retain water during the hardening process, allowing the joints to be grouted within 24 hours, while the adhesive gains full strength within up to 2-3 weeks.

Shelf life

When purchasing such mixtures, you should pay attention to the release date of the material, since after the expiration date, lumps form in the composition due to hygroscopicity. The shelf life of such mixtures in the manufacturer's packaging ranges from 6 to 9 months, so when purchasing, you must take into account that this period must expire before the repair is completed - each overdue month deprives the cement of 5% of its activity, and the polymer components may generally lose their properties.

Cement adhesive mixtures, in turn, are divided into 2 subgroups:

• thick-layer (leveling);
• thin-layer.

Thick-layer cement adhesive mixtures

These mixtures are used to level the base under the tiles if the differences in surface levels are 1-3 cm. The use of such compositions allows you to avoid plastering the base and reduce repair time.

To provide long term operation, it is important to choose the right adhesive composition

The composition of the leveling adhesive, which includes cement, sand of various fractions and a set of polymers, ensures the strength of laying tiles made of any material. Material of the “reinforced” brand is used even for the installation of cladding made of natural stone and porcelain stoneware, the specific gravity of which due to high density one and a half to two times the weight of conventional ceramics. Varieties of thick-layer adhesives for external and interior works, for rooms with high humidity And high temperature air.

The compressive strength of thick-layer adhesives after complete drying must be at least 10 MPa.

The disadvantage of leveling mixtures is their strong shrinkage, which makes it difficult to calculate the need for material and does not make this method of leveling surfaces economical.

Thin-layer cement-based adhesives

Thin-layer cement-based adhesives are used for laying tiles on surfaces whose level differences do not exceed 1 cm.

The layer of glue applied to the back side of the ceramic must be at least 5 mm. As in leveling mixtures, thin-layer compositions use special additives that increase individual characteristics material necessary for its use in specific conditions, but the specific gravity of the adhesive changes slightly from this. Varieties of such adhesives with enhanced adhesion and strength for laying heavy tiles also exist.

The compressive strength of thin-layer compositions after drying should not be lower than 10 MPa.

The advantages of thin-layer mixtures are low consumption (1-1.5 kg per 1 square meter) and shorter drying times than thick-layer mixtures.

The disadvantage is low moisture resistance and there is no “moisture resistant” marking, which forces the use of only moisture-resistant mixtures.

Water-dispersion (polymer) adhesives are one-component aqueous solutions polymer particles based on acrylic, latex or polyvinyl acetate (PVA). Used for ceramic tile cladding of leveled concrete, plastered and plasterboard bases, forming a waterproof shell. Sold in sealed plastic containers of various sizes. The specific gravity of the ready-to-use solution is approximately equal to the weight of the cement-based adhesive and is 1.3 g/cm3; the same value is taken as the density.

The technical characteristics of such adhesive compositions are regulated by the requirements of GOST 28780-2004 “Polymer adhesives. Technical conditions" and GOST 12172-74 "Phenol-polyvinyl acetal adhesives. Technical conditions".

Dispersion adhesive is a composition of tile adhesive based on water based, which includes acrylic or cellulose-glycolic acid and special additives - chalk, latex

These materials are produced in the form of thick white, colored solutions and pastes. Glue particles suspended in water when the water evaporates or goes into the base are connected to each other and form an adhesive film.

Instructions for use are usually presented on the container in an accessible form.

Advantages:

• ease of preparation for use;
• ease of application;
• connection strength;
• high moisture resistance;
• heat resistance;
• low consumption;
• absence of flammable components in the material;
• long shelf life when stored in airtight containers;
• environmental friendliness.

Flaws:

• impossibility of use for leveling surfaces;
• high price compared to cement adhesives.

Water-based adhesive is the most common on the market

Polyurethane adhesives

Polyurethane-based adhesives are one- or two-component compositions. The technical characteristics of these adhesives must meet the requirements of GOST 30535-97 “Polymer adhesives. Nomenclature of indicators".

Curing of one-component compositions occurs due to moisture environment, reacting with the components of the solution. Two-component substances harden when the components are mixed in a certain ratio.

It must be taken into account that some types of polyurethane adhesive expand during curing and are therefore unsuitable for laying tiles.

The material has high strength, sufficient elasticity and resistance to impact chemical substances. Effectively bonds together surfaces of even dissimilar materials (metal - glass, stone - wood), has almost zero moisture absorption, and is insensitive to large differences temperatures (from -50 to +120 degrees Celsius) and pressure. The composition, in addition to a strong connection of materials in a short time, provides waterproofing of the base.

Industrially produced one-component and two-component polyurethane adhesive

The adhesive solution is applied with a brush or roller not to the tile, but to the base. A necessary condition The strength gain of polymer glue when used is thorough mixing of the solution and precise adherence to the proportions of the components in a two-component design.

Advantages of the material:

• strength and durability of the connection;
• high adhesion to any surfaces;
• moisture and heat resistance (suitable for underfloor heating);
• resistance to chemicals;
• rapid strength gain (possibility of repairs in a short time);
• the ability to choose a variety of glue for specific conditions without overpaying for versatility;
• low consumption and no shrinkage;
• environmental friendliness after hardening.

Flaws:

• The need to have skills in using this glue;
• The presence of a pungent odor in some varieties;
• Relatively high price.

When working with polyurethane glue, you should wear protective gloves, and if the solution gets on your skin, wash it off immediately warm water with soap.

Epoxy adhesives are divided into two- and multi-component. Solvent-free epoxy adhesive consists of a resin (the main binder) and a hardener (a liquid or powder activator). Binder mixed in a certain proportion with a hardener, after which the mixture is applied to the grease-free surfaces of the tile or base, and the product is glued in place.

A mixture of synthetic resin, mineral fillers and organic additives, hardening due to a chemical reaction

The setting time of the adhesive is approximately 20 minutes, and complete curing occurs after a few hours. The surfaces to be bonded must not be porous. IN difficult cases To increase strength, epoxy adhesive is reinforced with dry powdered fiberglass.

These adhesives have high technical characteristics, and therefore are used in critical places and in industries with aggressive finishing operating conditions.

The compressive strength of compositions based on reactive resins must be at least 15 MPa.

Advantages:

• high strength with low demands on the thickness of the adhesive layer;
• elasticity and high adhesion;
• waterproof;
• frost resistance;
• long shelf life;
• low specific gravity (1300-1500 kg/m3);
• no shrinkage.

Flaws:

• flammability;
• high price.

Conclusion

Having decided which type of glue to use for repairs, it is advisable to write down from GOST the characteristics that this material should have, and when purchasing, compare them with the data, albeit incomplete, indicated on the packaging. The shelf life is calculated from the date of production of the material, and not from the date of purchase.

And areas

Often modern interior design decorates with fashionable glass transparent mosaic, translucent tiles or light a natural stone designed to bring more light into the room, making it airy and voluminous. However, it is not recommended to lay such decorative elements on ordinary mortar, since it is made of gray cement, which will darken the surface and destroy the integrity visual perception. To ensure that such problems are avoided, it is recommended to use tile adhesive LITOKOL LITOPLUS K55 white (25 kg). What is its main difference?

Glue Features

As the main binder for the production of a dry mixture, high-strength white cement, giving the finished solution a neutral light color. Tile adhesive not only does not darken transparent Decoration Materials, but also serves as a substrate to highlight them against the general background of the surface being decorated. Moreover, the solution contains latex additives that provide high adhesion to any popular bases: prefabricated and monolithic concrete, GVL, drywall, cement plasters, it is also possible to install using the “tile-on-tile” method, without the need to dismantle the old coating.

In addition, it is necessary to highlight:

• Water - weather - and frost resistance - allows you to carry out work in rooms with varying degrees of humidity and outdoors, for example, tiling bathrooms, showers, kitchens, pool bowls, fountains and so on.
• Tile adhesive LITOKOL LITOPLUS K55 white (25 kg) is resistant to slipping and lacks vertical sliding, allowing decoration in any order, starting from the middle or from the top of the base.
• By developing the material, I increased the time of working with the finished solution, thereby allowing adjustments or within 40 minutes, which is convenient as professional craftsmen, and for beginners.

Performance specifications for tile adhesive include its use in conjunction with the “Warm Floor” system.

Tile adhesive

In our building materials store you can choose tile adhesive from any manufacturer, according to the most favorable prices, we work with the most well-known manufacturers tile adhesives.

Tile adhesive is used mainly for laying tiles (ceramic tiles), laying artificial stone, laying paving slabs.

Tile adhesive the one you buy should be high if you want your tiles to be securely glued.

In our store you will find tile adhesive of the highest quality.

Glue consumption per 1 m2. Tile adhesive consumption rates.

There is no way to repair without glue. But the question always arises: how much glue to buy, for example, for laying tiles? It seems that there will be more glue than there won’t be enough in the midst of repairs. It is necessary to resolve this issue at a minimum to calculate repair costs.

So, tile adhesive is usually packaged in kilograms. Therefore, you need to determine the glue consumption per 1 square meter, and then calculate the total amount based on the area of ​​the room. But there is no clear answer to the question of how much tile adhesive is consumed per 1 square meter. It all depends on many factors.

1) Glue type

Tile adhesive is divided into 3 groups: dispersion adhesive, epoxy adhesive and cement-based adhesive. The most economical and easiest option for work is cement-based glue (diluted with water). Depending on the thickness of the layer, the average consumption of such glue is 1-1.9 kg. Dispersion adhesive is ready for use; it is resin-based and has a liquid structure. Epoxy adhesive also contains a resin, to which a catalyst is added when used.

2) The second factor is the size of the tiles

The larger the size of the tile, the heavier it is, which means the thickness of the adhesive base should be greater. So, for tiles measuring 10x10, a layer of cement adhesive of 2 mm is required, for tiles 20x30 - 3mm, for tiles 30x30 or more - 4-5 mm.

Measuring the thickness of the adhesive base is quite difficult. Even if the glue layer looks even in appearance, in reality this may not be the case. So, rely on the size of the spatula teeth. So, for tiles 30x30 cm, a spatula with 8 mm teeth is suitable. When applying glue, the spatula must be held at an angle of 90 degrees relative to the wall, then the thickness of the adhesive layer can be more accurate. For optimal distribution of the glue, it must first be applied with a spatula without teeth and only then “combed” through the adhesive base. Therefore, the glue consumption also depends on the size of the spatula (this is often indicated in the instructions). So for example, if you use Ceresit CM12 adhesive, then the consumption will be 4.2 kg per square meter, provided that you use a trowel with 10 mm teeth for 30x30 tiles.

3) Type of tile

Different types of tiles, absorbs different quantities glue. Porcelain tiles absorb the least glue, glazed tiles a little more, and finally, the porous surface of cotto tiles absorbs the most glue. self made It also absorbs a lot of glue.

In addition, if the surface of the tile is uneven, then a small layer of glue should be applied to it, which will increase consumption.

4) Another factor on which glue consumption depends is the tile laying technology and the type of base

The ideal surface for laying tiles should be smooth, even, and free of cracks. In this case, glue consumption is minimal, because it is only necessary to ensure adhesion of the tiles to the surface.

If the surface has differences or cracks, they are most often compensated for by leveling with glue. There are specially designed adhesives that also level the wall, usually these are used if the difference in differences is not more than 3 cm. Such adhesive will also be needed for laying tiles that have differences on the back side, for example, for clinker.

Not only the back side of the tile has different porosity, but also the surface on which it is laid. The higher the porosity, the more glue is absorbed. This means that to securely fasten the tiles you will need additional expenses. For example, concrete walls absorb less glue than a cemented base.

5) The composition of the glue and the brand are no less important

The glue contains various additives that give it certain properties (frost resistance, etc.). Accordingly, these additives change the structure of the glue, making it liquid or, conversely, thicker. Therefore, the consumption of glue of different brands, but the same volume, may be different.

So for each type of glue and for a certain glue trademark its own consumption rate. For example, for Eunice Granite glue this norm is 1 kg, but for Litokol K80 glue the norm is slightly more - 1.35 kg.

6) Weather conditions also affect working technique

The optimal temperature suitable for laying tiles varies between 18-25 degrees. But the maximum standards are much wider: from 5 to 38 degrees Celsius. The higher the room temperature. Them more glue you will need it because moisture evaporates very quickly. At sub-zero temperature the glue may lose its properties altogether.

7) Glue consumption depends on the work technique, as well as the qualifications of the craftsman

The amount of glue consumed depends on the technique of its application. So, when the spatula is tilted at an angle of 65 degrees, the glue consumption will be greater than at 45 (the difference is 20-30%). The shape of the spatula can also play a significant role. It is most economical to work with a V-shaped spatula, followed by a U-shaped spatula. More glue is consumed on spatulas with teeth. square shape. And of course, the glue consumption of an experienced craftsman will clearly be less than that of an amateur. So, if this is your first time laying tiles, it is better to buy extra glue.

Calculation of glue volume

There are several ways to calculate required quantity glue.

Option one Suitable for those who buy glue again, have already worked with it and know all the features of the consumption of glue of this brand. In this case, when purchasing a certain glue, you can go to the official website of the representative company. Very often such sites offer a calculation option - a calculator. All you need to do is enter the tile size, area of ​​the room and the specific type of adhesive. You will receive the final answer in kilograms.

Second option. We offer you an approximate calculation of the consumption of cement-based adhesive. We take the most favorable conditions, glue consumption weighing 1.3 kg. We multiply this value by the thickness of the adhesive layer (let’s assume that the tile has dimensions of 30x30 cm, then the thickness of the adhesive layer will be 4 mm). We get the result: 5.2 per 1 square meter. Accordingly, if you need to lay out 10 squares, then the consumption is 52 kg. For tiles of other sizes, only the thickness of the adhesive base changes. However, this result can hardly be called accurate, if only because all adhesives are different. However, a rough estimate will give you some reference point.

Option three– suitable for those who urgently need to know how much glue is needed per 1 m2.

To do this, the following parameters are required: half the thickness of the tile (mm), average consumption of purchased glue. We multiply these indicators and get the result. This method is the most inaccurate, because... Even porcelain tiles from the same batch have different thicknesses.

The most popular brands of glue: consumption rates

We bring to your attention the average statistical indicators of glue consumption per 1 square meter of the most popular, high-quality and in demand brands in the construction industry.
