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.
We supply the Required Grade and Type of Cement that have been procured from the Top Brands and made available to the customers at the required Specification for the best prices in the Bulk quantities required.
It is obvious that Cement is a very useful binding substance in construction. The usage of cement in diverse fields of construction has made it a very significant civil engineering material.
Cement mixed with water and fine aggregate produces mortar, sand, and gravel to create concrete. It is the most-consumed resource and is widely available in the market.
Thanks to our more than 7 years of experience, we have developed a wide range of products sourced from the most experienced manufacturers in Asia and in general.
A cement is a binder, a substance that sets and hardens independently, and can bind other materials together. The word "cement" traces to theRomans, who used the term opus caementicium to describe masonry resembling modern concrete that was made from crushed rock with burnt lime as binder. The volcanic ash and pulverized brick additives that were added to the burnt lime to obtain a hydraulic binder were later referred to as cementum,cimentum, cäment, and cement.
Cements used in construction can be characterized as being either hydraulic or non-hydraulic. Hydraulic cements (e.g., Portland cement) harden because of hydration, a chemical reaction between the anhydrous cement powder and water. Thus, they can harden underwater or when constantly exposed to wet weather. The chemical reaction results in hydrates that are not very water-soluble and so are quite durable in water. Non-hydraulic cements do not harden underwater; for example, slaked limes harden by reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide.
The most important uses of cement are as an ingredient in the production of mortar in masonry, and of concrete, a combination of cement and anaggregate to form a strong building material.
