Mapei Planicrete Latex Cement Mortar Admixture
PLANICRETE LATEX is a synthetic rubber emulsion used to replace part of the mixing water in cementitious mortars. Its core function is to significantly improve the adhesion of cementitious materials and enhance multiple physical properties, producing high-performance polymer-modified mortars.

Applications
- Adhesive floor screeds
- Rendering of interior/exterior wall mortars, improving adhesion and weather resistance
- Repairing holes and damaged concrete surfaces
- Bonding layer before applying fresh screeds or mortars over existing cementitious substrates
Advantages
- Improves plasticity, water retention and trowellability of cement mixes
- After curing, significantly increases adhesion to substrates, flexural strength, abrasion resistance and freeze-thaw resistance
- Gives cementitious materials better impermeability and improved chemical resistance to diluted acids/alkalis, saline solutions and oils
- Wide range of applications
