Thinset mortar is also commonly referred to by several other names in the construction and tiling industry, including dry-set mortar, thin-bed mortar, cementitious adhesive, and simply tile mortar. Because it is sold primarily as a dry powder blend composed of Portland cement, fine silica sand, and water-retaining polymer additives, professionals frequently call it dry-set mortar. In technical architectural specifications and building manuals, it is often formally classified as a polymer-modified portland cement mortar designed specifically for adhering ceramic, porcelain, natural stone, and glass tiles to solid subfloors or vertical wall surfaces during remodeling projects.
