Classification and designation of tile adhesive according Standard EN 12004
Standard EN 12004 is applicable to ceramic tile cementitious adhesives, dispersion adhesives and reaction resin adhesives for internal and external tile installations on walls and floors. The standard gives the terminology concerning the products, working methods, application properties, etc, for ceramic tile adhesives.
Standard EN 12004 specifies:
1) ADHESIVE TYPE CLASSIFICATION
2) PERFORMANCE CLASSES
3) OPTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
