The importance of the porosity of mortars, tiles and bricks in relation to their bonding strengths
The bonding strengths between a wide range of mortars to tiles, bricks and a hardened cement paste were determined. These were related to the porosities, measured by mercury porosimetry, of the component materials. Both the porosity and the composition of the mortars affected the bonding strengths. However, the pore size distribution rather than total pore volume was found to be of greater importance in determining the bonding strength.
