An ingredient of mortar (6)

I believe the answer is:

cement

(Other definitions for cement that I've seen before include "Join firmly together" , "Mortar; strengthen" , "Ingredient of concrete" , "Stuff that binds or bonds" , "Binding substance as for bricks" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
