Adimar Standard

Adimar Standard ceramic tile adhesive manufactured by AYMAR S.A.U. is an adhesive for traditional use, in accordance with the UNE-EN 12004:2017 standard, designed with marble aggregates, cement and special additives that give it adhesion, sliding and water retention properties suitable for the placement of ceramic pieces.

 

Composition

Composed of crushed marble aggregates used in construction (EN 12620 and EN13139), portland cement (EN 197-1 and UNE 80601) and additives of both organic and inorganic nature that give it better characteristics in adhesion and sliding.

  • Instructions of use
  • Recomendations of use

Adimar standard has ideal characteristics for the installation of ceramic tiles with a medium-high degree of absorption (>5%) in interior floor and wall coverings, on conventional cement-based substrates. It is not suitable for outdoor use.

  • Preparation of the substrate: the substrate on which the application is to be carried out must be resistant, dry, level, free of dust and free of any traces of release agent.
  • Preparation of the mixture: add 6-6.5 l of water per bag and mix manually or mechanically with a low speed electric mixer to eliminate any possible presence of lumps in the paste, allow the mixture to stand for 5 min. and carry out a brief re-mixing.
  • Application of the paste: apply the product on the substrate using a toothed flame, to regularize the thickness, in a maximum extension of 2 m2, applying sufficient pressure so that the minimum contact with the cement is 80%. Lay the tiles, pressing them until the grooves are flattened and the tiles are correctly set with the help of a rubber mallet. It is necessary to verify, with the fingertips, periodically that the adhesive has not formed a film on its surface, if this happens the product must be combed again taking into account that we are still in the margin of the open time of this (if the temporary strip since its application has exceeded the above mentioned open time the adhesive must be removed and reapplied).
  • The application temperature must be between 5 °C and 35 °C on the substrate.
  • Do not apply outdoors
  • Do not apply on substrates with residual humidity > 5%.
  • Check the planimetry of the substrate with a 2 m ruler, verifying that the deviations must be less than 5 mm.
  • In the case of superior deviations it is necessary to regularize them before the placement.
  • Do not use in areas where there is danger of stagnant water.
  • It is advisable to leave a minimum joint between tiles of 2mm applying in it the UNIVERSAL JOINT 0/15 or the TECHNICAL JOINT 0/16 On very absorbent substrates it is advisable to moisten it and to wait until it is dry.
  • For applications on gypsum substrates, use Adimar Gypsum.
  • With white body tiles use Adimar porcelain white, Adimar flexible or Adimar superflex.
