Flowable Mortar

Flowable Mortar Key Challenges

Flowable mortar refers to mortar with good flowability, such as cement-based self-leveling mortar and grouting materials. Its good flowability can improve construction efficiency, but it also presents the following problems:

  • The mortar is prone to bleeding, increasing construction difficulty.
  • Insufficient flowability makes it difficult to spread.
  • Insufficient early strength and poor abrasion resistance.
  • Numerous air bubbles or pores result in an uneven surface.
  • Unstable setting time can also affect construction.

Since flowability and suspension stability are inherently contradictory, admixture stability is crucial. Celotech provides you with stable additives that address these problems at their source.

Celotech Flowable Mortar Solutions

A high-quality flowable mortar often requires the coordinated action of multiple additives.

Disclaimer: Use the above dosage as a reference. Adjust it based on your formulation, application conditions, and performance needs. Conduct a small-scale trial before on-site production.

Special Application Recommendations for Flowable Mortar

The formula can be adjusted according to requirements in different construction environments:

  • High-temperature and dry environments: Add Celopro® to improve water retention, and add an appropriate amount of Gypstar® to extend working time.
  • Low-temperature or high-humidity environments: Add an appropriate amount of Ultraplast® to improve fluidity and optimize construction smoothness.
  • Requires a smooth surface: Add Foamsolver® to suppress air bubbles and improve mortar density.
  • Requires high early strength: Add Vinabond® RDP to improve early hardness and abrasion resistance.

A proper formula can achieve a balance of fluidity, strength, workability, and setting time, ensuring the stability and high-quality performance of the flowable mortar on site.

Common Application Scenarios

  1. Self-leveling floors
  2. Grouting of equipment foundations
  3. Filling of narrow spaces
  4. Repair and reinforcement projects
  5. Complex mold casting
