Construction technology of ceramic tile grouting agent
Bottom layer treatment: Use metal scrapers, brooms and other tools to sweep away the dust and cement agglomerates in the mortar joints. If the bottom layer of mortar joints is too dry in summer, it is necessary to Spray water to moisten properly. However, it must be ensured that there are no water stains on the ceramic tile surface during construction.
Mixing: Use clean tap water for mixing, and do not mix other materials. River water, domestic wastewater, industrial wastewater and other sewage are prohibited. Therefore, impurities contained in such sewage will cause discoloration of ceramic tile grouting agents, especially white and colored ceramic tile grouting agents.
Containers and tools for holding water and mixing should be kept clean and clean.
The mixing ratio of ceramic tile grouting agent is about 1:4.
The mixed ingredients should be used up within 2-4 hours, otherwise they need to be discarded.
The mixing method is: first add most of the water required for mixing into the container, then slowly add the caulking material while stirring with a mixer, while adding the caulking material or remaining water. , mix until appropriate softness.
Under the same construction conditions, the amount of water added to the gray joint material should remain the same, so as to ensure the uniformity of color tone.
The mixing of ceramic tile grouting agent should be completed at one time, and it is not advisable to add water and readjust it midway.
Since the surface of the tiles is unglazed and not very rough, but there are also very fine pores, in order to successfully complete the exterior wall tiles, the following operations are recommended:
1 When the seam width reaches 8MM or more, it is recommended to use the seam feeding method for construction
2. If full batch construction is used, it must be able to be cleaned in place with a sponge after pinching dry water at one time (that is, when the worker is doing the work) When jointing, you should use clean water immediately after the first scrubbing to remove the adsorbed pores on the surface of the tiles). This construction can make subsequent large-area cleaning convenient, quick and clean.
After the ceramic tile grouting agent is applied, within the above specified time, if it rains, rainproof measures must be taken. Once the grouting agent is exposed to rain, it will turn white and cause different colors. .
When constructing high-rise ceramic tiles with grouting agent, it is recommended to use horizontal segmented construction, that is, after the tile grouting agent in the upper construction section is applied, the cleaning is completed, and then the grouting agent in the lower construction section is applied. </p
