681 MARMERCOL

Product Typification

Super-elastic, moisture-resistant and white paste tile adhesive with very favourable consumption. Ideal for bonding light-coloured natural stone and glass mosaic, but also ceramic wall and floor tiles on almost any wall made of cement, plaster, sheet material or existing tiling. Suitable for indoor use.

Basis	:	Ready-for-use dispersion adhesive with an acrylic base.
Colour	:	White.

Product advantages:

No discoloration of the tiles caused by the adhesive
Moisture-resistant
Super elastic
High initial adhesion strength

Performances

Alkali resistance	:	681 Marmercol is resistant against an alkaline environment.
Classification	:	D2TE according to NEN EN 12004-2:2017. A super elastic dispersion-based tile adhesive with an increased flow resistance and an extended open time.
Consumption	:	Approx. 0.9 kg/m² when installing normal wall tiles on smooth subfloors.
Curing	:	Minimum 24 hours. When fixing tiles with a moisture-absorption capacity < 3%, fully vitrified tiles and natural stone wait for minimum 48 hours. Drying and reaching of the final bond strength of the adhesive depending on temperature, relative humidity, subfloor and type of tile.
Humidity resistance	:	After drying 681 Marmercol is moisture-resistant and therefore very suitable for application in the so-called "wet areas". The adhesive cannot be used under water (swimming pools).
Specific weight	:	1.4 kg/l.

Application

Application:

For fixing:

light-coloured marble
glass-mosaic and glass tiles

but also:

wall tiles
tiles with a moisture-absorption capacity < 3%
building and insulation materials.

On almost all walls, e.g.:

cement-based subfloors
gypsum-based subfloors
various sheet material
old tiles.

Working Process

Open time	:	20-30 Minutes, depending on temperature, relative humidity, subfloor and type of tile.
Waiting time	:	None.
Application temperature	:	From 5º C to 25 ºC (temperature of the surrounding as well as the subfloor). During bonding of the adhesive the temperature during day and night should be > 5 °C.
Curing	:	Minimum 24 hours. When fixing tiles with a moisture-absorption capacity < 3%, fully vitrified tiles and natural stone wait for minimum 48 hours. Drying and reaching of the final bond strength of the adhesive depending on temperature, relative humidity, subfloor and type of tile.
Storage	:	Store free from frost. Protect against temperatures > 35 ºC.
Shelf Life	:	12 Months, in unopened packaging. After use close the open packaging well.
Moisture resistance	:	After drying 681 Marmercol is moisture-resistant and therefore very suitable for application in the so-called "wet areas". The adhesive cannot be used under water (swimming pools).

* The mentioned values have been established in our laboratory and must be considered as guidelines in view of possible variations in climatic circumstances, subfloor compositions and layer thickness.

Consumption:
Approx. 0.9 kg/m² when installing normal wall tiles on smooth subfloors.

Substrate:

681 Marmercol is suitable for almost any type of wall that is clean, free from grease and dust, smooth and dry.
If necessary level stony walls with 658 Wandoforte or 955 Wandostuc.
Prime moisture-absorbent and somewhat friable walls with 099 Dispersion Primer.
Affix non-absorbent subfloors e.g. old tiles with tile adhesive or prime with 051 Europrimer Quartz.
In accordance with the manufacturers recommendations gypsum plasterwork has to be at least 10 mm thick.
For bonding of the adhesive, either the tile and/or subfloor should be able to absorb moisture.
The subfloor should be suitable for the required application.
In advance always seek our technical data sheets. In doubt about the application ask for technical advice.

User manual:

Apply the adhesive on the wall and make adhesive strips with the recommended adhesive spreader (see spreading capacity/notched spreader). Make sure that the entire back of the tile is covered with adhesive. Otherwise the adhesive strips will shine through the natural stone.
Place the tiles immediately with a shuffling movement into the adhesive. On non-absorbent subfloors wait for 10-15 minutes to allow the adhesive to set-off before placing the tiles.
After drying of the adhesive (minimum 24-48 hours) the joints can be filled with Eurocol grouting cement.
Clean tools and hands immediately with water.

Spreading capacity/notched spreader for ready-for-use tile adhesives:

The smoothness of the subfloor and type of tile are determining for the adhesive spreader to be used. For walls inside a minimum adhesive transport of 60% is required (divided over the back of the tile). For tiles on facades a minimum adhesive transport of 80% is required (divided over the back of the tile).

Notched spreader no. 18 : Spreading capacity approx. 1.3 kg/m²

Notched spreader no. 19, 4x4 mm : Spreading capacity approx. 1.8 kg/m²

Notched spreader no. 12, 6x6 mm : Spreading capacity approx. 2.5 kg/m²

Contains methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone (3:1) and benzisothiazolinone. May produce an allergic reaction.
