Manufacture of Portland Cement Introduction Historically cement can be traced back to the early Roman Empire It contributed to the building of the great structures of the Roman Empire Portland cement is a fine powder generally gray in colour It is composed primarily of calcium silicates calcium aluminates and calcium ferrites When mixed with water hydrated cement solidifies to an

It is also known as Portland cement because after setting into hard mass it resembles with the rocks found in Portland in United Kingdom It is fine grey powder which is made from limestone and clay The chemical formula of cement is 2 O 2 O 3 Raw Material Required for Manufacturing of Cement

The Chemistry of Portland Cement While ASTM C595 and ASTM C1157 white cements are often used the Standard Specification for Portland Cement ASTM C150 is used herein as an example because it best describes the chemical and physical characteristics of portland cement The most common cement designation in C150 is Type I for normal or general use

Portland cement clinker overview Portland cement clinker is a dark grey nodular material made by heating ground limestone and clay at a temperature of about 1400 °C 1500 °C The nodules are ground up to a fine powder to produce cement with a small amount of gypsum added to control the setting properties This page gives a thumbnail sketch

Portland cement’s chemistry comes to life in the presence of water Cement and water form a paste that surrounds and binds each particle of sand and stone Through a chemical reaction of cement and water called hydration the paste hardens and gains strength The character of concrete is determined by the quality of the paste

In the most general sense portland cement is produced by heating sources of lime iron silica and alumina to clinkering temperature 2500 to 2800 degrees Fahrenheit in a rotating kiln then grinding the clinker to a fine powder The heating that occurs in the kiln transforms the raw materials into new chemical compounds

A few basic chemistry notes Some very basic chemistry will help a lot with understanding how cement is made and how it works If you missed out on chemistry at school or it just seems a long time ago the following short notes might be useful Basic Chemistry 1 Chemical symbols
