What is the difference between cement self-leveling and traditional cement mortar ground leveling?

Cement self-leveling and traditional cement mortar ground leveling are both used as one of the ground construction treatment methods, and the demolition methods are different.

1, using different cement.

In the construction process, polymer self-leveling cement is used for cement self-leveling, and ordinary cement mortar is used for traditional cement mortar ground leveling.

2, the performance is different

The traditional cement mortar floor has low moisture regain, high rigidity and easy cracking. The construction thickness needs 20mm, and the overall benefit is average. The smoothness of self-leveling cement is very flat, and the decorative materials are beautifully laid, saving materials. It can be put into use after 24 hours, with good moisture regain resistance, good flexibility and no cracking. The construction thickness of 3~5mm can meet the requirements and the overall benefit is good.

3. Different construction methods

The traditional cement mortar floor is not easy to level, the construction speed is slow, and there are big defects in leveling. First, the flatness control is not allowed and the leveling thickness is high. Secondly, the leveling of cement mortar is done by hand according to certain standards. Cement mortar has no leveling performance, so the construction is limited and the finished ground will be uneven.

Self-leveling ground, using polymer self-leveling cement for ground treatment, has many advantages such as high ground strength, good thickness controllability and flatness much higher than that of cement mortar. Its liquid fluidity is good, and it can flow from high to low, making the ground flat.
