Cement based renders and trowelling compounds

Tylose® MC is an important additive ensuring there is sufficient water retention in renders and trowelling compounds.

Cement based renders and trowelling compounds

Renders are mixtures of mineral binders, aggregates and auxiliaries. Depending on the process, there is a distinction between hand and machine application. They are used for base coating, insulation, renovation and decorative purposes. Renders based on cement or cement/hydrated lime can be employed for exterior and interior work. Machine applied renders are mixed in continuously or discontinuously working plastering machines. These enables coverage of large wall and ceiling areas by a highly efficient technique.

Cement based jointing and trowelling compounds are used for repairing systems and to smooth coarse walls and floors. Grouts are applied to fill the gaps between ceramic or stone tiles.

Filter applications by:

    Base coats

    Base renders are used to coat walls and ceilings. They form the substrate for further coatings such as decorative finish coatings and tiles. Cement based base renders can be used internally and externally.

    One coat renders

    Exterior use, one-layer renders function as multi-layer exterior plastering systems (base renders and decorative finish coatings). They are generally coloured and are specified as monocouche or monocapa. Formulation of these products varies from region to region.

    Decorative renders

    For reasons of design and weather protection, decorative finish renders are mainly used as an exterior final coating. Usually they are white but can also be coloured with inorganic pigments.

    Skim coats

    Cement based skim coats are used for the final coating of even substrates in a layer thickness of 2-4 mm. If necessary, they can be applied in two or more layers. Skim coats are particularly widespread in Asia. White cement is often used as a binder, especially in India.

    Self-levelling compounds

    Self-levelling floor compounds are used to smooth and level all kinds of substrates and can be used as an underlay for e. g. tiles and carpets. To avoid sedimentation and to maintain the flowability, low viscosity Tylose® grades are used.

    EIFS base coats

    The EIFS base coat is a cementitious mortar that is used as composite or levelling mortar on top of different insulation boards, e. g. made of expanded polystyrene (EPS), glass or mineral wool, with an alkaline resistant fibre mesh in it.

    Grouts

    Grouts are used to fill joints between tiles and can be applied in different widths. They are available in many different colours.

    Waterproofing systems

    Waterproofing systems are divided into rigid sealing slurries and so called flexible sealing membranes according to EN14891. In general, rigid sealing slurries are used to protect construction parts against moisture and water. Flexible waterproofing systems are based on polymer modified cementitious mortars. They are mainly used beneath tiles in wet areas like kitchens, bath rooms and balconies.

    Construction materials are optimised with the following properties of Tylose:

    • Water retention
    • Consistency control
    • Adhesion improvement
    • Stabilising of air pores
    • Improvement of workability
    Building materials

    For dry mortars we offer modified and non-modified Tylose grades of both MHEC and MHPC.
