WACKER’s High-Performance Binders Enable Low-Carbon Tile Adhesives
The cement industry contributes eight per cent of global CO? emissions, prompting a shift towards low-clinker alternatives like CEM II to meet climate-neutral goals by 2050. However, replacing CEM I in tile adhesives affects tensile adhesion strength and early strength, particularly after water immersion.
WACKER’s research confirms that VINNAPAS® E-grade dispersible polymer powders can enhance tensile adhesion strength, ensuring CEM II adhesives meet C2TE standards (EN 12004). Terpolymer-based modifications significantly improve water resistance, helping manufacturers maintain performance while reducing carbon footprints.
With its innovative polymer solutions, WACKER supports the industry’s transition towards sustainable, high-performance construction materials.
