Composition of Ordinary Portland Cement Calcium, Cilica
The chief chemical components of ordinary Portland cement are: Calcium, Silica, Alumina, Iron. Calcium is usually derived from limestone, marl or chalk while silica, alumina and iron come from the sands, clays & iron ores. Other raw materials may include shale, shells and industrial byproducts. The chief compound which usually form in process of mixing:
CIVL 1101 Part 3 Properties of Portland Cement
When Portland cement is mixed with water, it undergoes a chemical reaction which leads to the hardening of the material. This process is called hydration and the results are the hydration products. The hydration process can be quantified by two characteristics; (1) the

Study on the physical and chemical properties of Portland
20/7/2019· The Portland cement used in this work was prepared by mixing 5% gypsum and 95% Portland cement clinker. The chemical and phase compositions for the cement are listed in Table 1.The Blaine specific surface is 354 m 2 /kg for the cement. Diethanol amine (C 4 H 11 NO 2, DEA), ethylenedichloride (ClCH 2-CH 2 Cl, EDC) and NaOH were used as chemical reactants for THEED.
