The addition of excess mixing water, undermixing and overmixing are common causes of many customer complaints related to plastic and hardened physical properties. The addition of Melment improves the wetting out and mixability of the grout, mortar or plaster. It reduces yield stress which means less mixing energy and time is required. It improves homogeneity of the various mineral and chemical components and because the mix looks wetter more quickly, the addition of excess mixing water is less likely to occur. Variations in workability, finishability, set, strength, bond, abrasion resistance, color and durability are less likely to occur when Melment is in the formula.
Customer satisfaction is enhanced if the product mixes and performs as advertised.
