THE INFLUENCE OF VISCOSITY MODIFYING ADMIXTURE ON THE SHRINKAGE OF PLASTERING MORTARS

Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 4

Abstract

This paper presents the influence of viscosity modifying admixture on the shrinkage size of plastering mortars. The composition of cement and cement-lime mortars has been modified by the use of cellulose ethers polymer admixture of various viscosity. Shrinkage tests were performed using the Graf-Kaufman apparatus. Shrinkage deformation analysis was supplemented with chosen properties of pastes and mortars in the plastic and hardened state. The beneficial effect of cellulose ether admixture on the reduction of plastering mortars’ shrinkage strains was found.
