During mixing (EN 1937) every 15sec a sample
is taken and the ow is measured. Casein based
formulations need approx. 3 times (90sec)
longer mixing time than formulations based on
Melux
3003 F (30sec).
The short mixing time makes them especially
suitable for machine applied SLUs.

3.3.2 Flexural Strength
Flexural Strength of Mortar Prisms (4cm x 4cm x 16cm)
Using Melux
3003 F
provides improved early strength (after 4h)
compared to casein and cellulose ether.
Thus, required time for foot trafc hardness
and oor covering installation is substantially
shortened.
