This research investigates polymer additives' effect on waterproofing and physical properties of dry-mix mortar, highlighting construction quality improvements.
Seepage remains a critical challenge in construction, compromising the durability and quality of structures. Dry-mix mortar, widely adopted for its standardized quality and enhanced longevity compared to traditional mortar, requires further improvement in waterproofing properties. Polymer additives, capable of forming a robust bonding membrane during curing, offer a promising solution to enhance mortar’s waterproofing performance. This study investigates the optimal polymer additive content, evaluates their impact on the physical and mechanical properties of mortar, and compares the waterproofing efficiency of additive-enhanced mortar against conventional mortar. The findings provide a scientific foundation for integrating polymer additives into mortar production, advancing the quality and sustainability of construction projects.
