Abstract

This paper discusses the standardization of adhesives for tiles and grouts for ceramic tiles. An experimental study was conducted on grouts for tiles in order to determine consistency and water retention rates, flexural and compressive strength, water absorption by capillary and the permeability of the material, calculating the relative deviation. An experimental study was also carried out to determine grout elasticity in order to determine transverse deformation and flexural strength, comparing to patterns established by Brazilian and European standards (EN 12002). As a result it was found that the standardization of adhesives for tiles should enter its final analysis stage and that the study of elasticity for both adhesives and grouts for tiles should be widely discussed both by inter-laboratorial essays as well as in technical meetings.
