How many types of tile adhesive are there?
According to TCVN 7899 and ISO 13007, tile adhesives are classified into three types: C (Cement-based. These are further classified into several grades: C1, C1T, C2, C2TE), D (dispersion resin–based), and R (reaction resin–based).
Why do different areas require different types of adhesives?
Because each area is exposed to different conditions (sun and rain, vibration, moisture, load, etc.), an appropriate adhesive with suitable bond strength, flexibility, and water/outdoor resistance is required to prevent debonding, hollow spots, and tile failure.
Why should tile adhesive be used instead of cement slurry?
Tile adhesive provides stronger bonding strength, more stable installation, reduces voids behind the tiles, and extends the lifespan of the structure.
Which substrates is this product suitable for?
Concrete, cement mortar, treated surfaces, and selected tile-on-tile applications.
Is it suitable for exterior applications?
Yes, when properly applied and matched with suitable exposure conditions.
What are common mistakes when using this product incorrectly?
Incorrect water ratio, poor surface preparation, or using the wrong adhesive type.
Who is this product suitable for?
Professional installers, homeowners, and construction projects requiring durability.
Does this product support sustainable construction?
Yes. Reduced tile failure minimizes repair, material waste, and lifecycle emissions.
