Clinker is a solid material produced in the manufacture of Portland cement as an intermediary product. Clinker is ground to a fine powder and used as the binder in many cement products.
Cement clinker is a solid material produced in the manufacture of portland cement as an intermediary product. Clinker occurs as lumps or nodules, usually 3 millimetres (0.12 in) to 25 millimetres (0.98 in) in diameter. It is produced by sintering (fusing together without melting to the point of liquefaction) limestone and aluminosilicate materials such as clay during the cement kiln stage
SRC is a type of cement where its clinker is blended with specific proportions of gypsum and bypass materials. This combination not only makes it durable against sulfate-induced damage but also provides a strong and reliable construction material.
SRC distinguishes itself by its minimal Tri Calcium Aluminate (C3A) content, a crucial characteristic. C3A is a chemical reaction with sulfate ions found in soil and water, which can lead to concrete expansion and cracking. As sulfate attack progresses, the affected concrete's strength and durability can significantly decrease. Sulfate attack can also manifest as surface scaling and deterioration of the concrete.
The concrete may become discolored, pitted, and crumbly. If sulfate attack continues unabated, it can lead to structural issues, including reduced loadbearing capacity, which can compromise the safety and integrity of the concrete structure. This unique property of SRC plays a vital role in inhibiting such expansion and cracking, strength and durability deterioration, especially in areas where the soil has elevated sulfate levels.
SRC is employed in a wide range of construction endeavors, including the infrastructure in sulphate-rich soils, construction of dams, coastal and marine structures like ports and platforms, sewage and Water treatment plants, repair and rehabilitation, underground Structures, and foundational work.
Aluminate Cement is a light-colored premium quality Calcium Aluminate Cement process in Rotary Kiln using the best raw materials. Calcium Alumina Cement gives early strength and improves refractory and physical properties like abrasion resistance providing a stable cement matrix. Alumina Cement is recommended in refractory applications and concrete combining mechanical performance with ease of installation.

Description:
Limestone Cement 32.5N (EN 197-1 CEM II/B-L) is a high-performance cement made with a blend of clinker and limestone. This cement is designed for various construction applications, providing reliable strength and durability. With a 28-day compressive strength of 43 MPa, it is ideal for residential buildings, infrastructure projects, and more. The addition of limestone makes it a more sustainable and eco-friendly option compared to traditional Portland cement, reducing environmental impact while maintaining excellent performance.
A cement is a binder, a substance used for construction that sets, hardens, and adheres to other materials to bind them together. Cement is seldom used on its own, but rather to bind sand and gravel (aggregate) together. Cement mixed with fine aggregate produces mortar for masonry, or with sand and gravel, produces concrete. Cement is the most widely used material in existence and is only behind water as the planet's most-consumed resource.
Cements used in construction are usually inorganic, often lime or calcium silicate based, and can be characterized as either hydraulic or non-hydraulic, depending on the ability of the cement to set in the presence of water (see hydraulic and non-hydraulic lime plaster).
Non-hydraulic cement does not set in wet conditions or under water. Rather, it sets as it dries and reacts with carbon dioxide in the air. It is resistant to attack by chemicals after setting.
Hydraulic cements (e.g., Portland cement) set and become adhesive due to a chemical reaction between the dry ingredients and water. The chemical reaction results in mineral hydrates that are not very water-soluble and so are quite durable in water and safe from chemical attack.
This allows setting in wet conditions or under water and further protects the hardened material from chemical attack. The chemical process for hydraulic cement found by ancient Romans used volcanic ash (pozzolana) with added lime (calcium oxide).
Portland cement is by far the most common type of cement in general use around the world. This cement is made by heating limestone (calcium carbonate) with other materials (such as clay) to 1450 �°C in a kiln, in a process known as calcination that liberates a molecule of carbon dioxide from the calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide, or quicklimeâ??which then chemically combines with the other materials in the mix to form calcium silicates and other cementitious compounds. The resulting hard substance, called 'clinker', is then ground with a small amount of gypsum into a powder to make ordinary Portland cement, the most commonly used type of cement (often referred to as OPC).
Portland cement is a basic ingredient of concrete, mortar, and most non-specialty grout. The most common use for Portland cement is to make concrete. Concrete is a composite material made of aggregate (gravel and sand), cement, and water. As a construction material, concrete can be cast in almost any shape, and once it hardens, can be a structural (load bearing) element. Portland cement may be grey or white.
