Viscoelastic mineral binder matrix: SikaRecent Research Landscape

Standard rigid flooring transmits impact noise and fire risks through structural vibrations. This composition engineers the internal damping properties of the mortar to dissipate acoustic energy and provide thermal insulation.

What technical problems is Sika addressing in Viscoelastic mineral binder matrix?

Acoustic and thermal energy transmission

(7)evidences

Standard mortar mixtures suffer from gravitational flow and slow curing when applied to slopes. Preventing material migration and acoustic transmission during the setting phase ensures structural uniformity and immediate usability.

Insufficient low temperature adhesion

(6)evidences

Binder matrices often lose flexibility and bonding strength in cold environments, leading to delamination. Improving adhesion at low temperatures ensures structural integrity and consistent noise attenuation across diverse thermal conditions.
