  4. Raw Materials Necessary for Portland Cement Manufacture Must Provide the Following • Calcium • Silica • Alumina • Iron

  6. Traditional Manufacture of Portland Cement 1. Stone is first reduced to 125 mm (5 in.) size, then to 20 mm (3/4 in.), and stored. Source: PCA, 2003

  7. Raw materials are ground to powder and blended. or 2. Raw materials are ground, mixed with water to form slurry, and blended. Source: PCA, 2003

  15. Clinker Gypsum Source: PCA, 2003

  16. Grinding • Clinker is ground with gypsum (calcium sulfate) to produce portland cement • Fine grinding is necessary for high early strength • 85-95% -325 mesh (45 microns) • ~ 7 trillion particles per pound • Gypsum absorbs water and prevents setting of C3A during shipment

  24. Clinker Phases • Alite or 3CaO•SiO2or C3S • Hydrates & hardens quickly • High early strength • Higher heat of hydration (setting) • Belite or 2CaO• SiO2or C2S • Hydrates & hardens slower than alite • Gives off less heat • High late strength (> 7 days) • Modern cements are manufactured to be higher in alite for early strength

  25. Clinker Phases • Aluminate or 3CaO• Al2O3or C3A • Very high heat of hydration • Some contribution to early strength • Low C3A for sulfate resistance • Ferriteor4CaO• Al2O3 • Fe2O3orC4AF • Little contribution to strength • Lowers clinkering temperature • Controls the color of cement
