Description
This course will focus on the long-term durability and quality of polymer binders in ceramic tile adhesives, and on their ability to protect against the impact of stress on ceramic tile. The seminar provides in-depth knowledge, compares non-modified and modified CTAs, and provides information on the differences between KS, ISO and ANSI standards.
Requirements
An interest in trends in high-quality CTAs and polymer technology
Topics
Theory:
- Introduction to WACKER
- Introduction to European tile trends and high-quality CTAs
- Comparison test between non-modified and modified CTAs
- Comparison between KS, ISO and ANSI standards
Seminar objectives
High-quality CTAs are part of a global market trend toward high-end ceramic tiles, and this makes flexibility a key consideration. Chamber and impact testing will demonstrate why flexibility is an important property for ceramic tile adhesives. As the global leader for high-quality polymer binders, WACKER POLYMERS has developed a class of optimized binders, whose characteristics include outstanding leveling properties.
Target audience
Technical and managerial employees from applications technology and R&D departments of construction and engineering companies in the dry-mix mortar-industry
