Abstract

An application for a pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition includes a approximately 75% sand and 25% of a light-weight cement mix comprising a cement (either Portland cement or hydraulic cement), hydrous lime, sodium tall oil, sodium stearate, sodium C14-16 Alpha Olefin, linear alkyl benzene; and silicon dioxide.

Claims (44)

1. A pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition comprising:

70 to 80 percent sand; and

20 to 30 percent light-weight cement mix composition comprising:

a cement selected from the group consisting of Portland cement and hydraulic cement;

hydrous lime;

sodium tall oil;

sodium stearate;

sodium C 14-16 Alpha Olefin;

linear alkyl benzene;

silicon dioxide.

2. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 35 to 90 percent Portland cement by weight.

3. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 35 to 90 percent hydraulic cement by weight.

4. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 2 to 10 percent hydrous lime by weight.

5. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 1 to 3 percent sodium tall oil by weight.

6. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 1 to 2 percent sodium stearate by weight.

7. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 1 to 2 percent sodium C 14-16 Alpha Olefin by weight.

8. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 1 to 3 percent linear alkyl benzene by weight.

9. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the light-weight cement mix composition comprises from 10 to 20 percent silicon dioxide by weight.

10. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 1 , wherein the pre-mixed mortar, stucco, or masonry composition is provided in a 65 pound bag.

11. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 10 , wherein mixing the contents of the 65 pound bag with water produces an equivalent amount of pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition as a standard 80 pound bag pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition.

1 to 2 percent sodium stearate by weight;

1 to 2 percent sodium C 14-16 Alpha Olefin by weight;

1 to 3 percent linear alkyl benzene by weight;

10 to 20 percent silicon dioxide by weight.

16. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 15 , wherein the pre-mixed mortar, stucco, or masonry composition is provided in 65 pound bags.

17. The pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition of claim 16 , wherein mixing the contents of the 65 pound bag with water produces an equivalent amount of pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition as a standard 80 pound bag pre-mixed mortar, stucco or masonry composition.
