Abstract: The modern types of concrete are a mixture of aggregates, cement, water and optional additives and admixtures. In particular, polymer additives seem to be a promising type of component that can significantly change concrete and mortar properties.
You have to know how to determine cement slurry density, slurry yield, the weight of additives and cement sack (94 lb in general, you can find 110 lb too like in Mexico) and parameters like additives absolute volume.
Ordinary Portland cement is one of the most widely used type of Cement. Types, properties, constituents, manufacture, uses and advantages of Ordinary Portland Cement is discussed. In 1824 Joseph Aspdin gave the name as Portland cement as it has similarity in colour and quality found in Portland stone, which is a white grey limestone in island of …
This review paper explores the diverse range of cement additives and their significant impact on the properties of cementitious materials. Cement additives play a crucial role in enhancing various aspects of cement performance, including strength, durability, workability, and setting time.

In this article, the term "powder" refers to the cement and mineral additives (FA, LP, BP and K). The fresh properties of SCMs that were determined are the initial and final setting times, mini slump flow diameter, and mini V-funnel flow time.
This document discusses various cement additives and their uses. It covers categories of additives including accelerators, retarders, extenders, weighting agents, dispersants, fluid loss control additives, and specialty additives. Specific additives are described in detail, outlining their applications, mechanisms of action, effects on slurry properties like …
Cement - Composition, Properties, Major Cements: Portland cement is made up of four main compounds: tricalcium silicate (3CaO · SiO2), dicalcium silicate (2CaO · SiO2), tricalcium aluminate (3CaO · Al2O3), and a tetra-calcium aluminoferrite (4CaO · Al2O3Fe2O3). In an abbreviated notation differing from the normal atomic …
The fundamental difference to understand is that cement is an ingredient in concrete, and it can contain "cement additives." Concrete contains cement, sand, aggregate, and water, and it may contain various "concrete admixtures" that enhance its properties during mixing.
Concrete Admixtures. Sika develops and markets a complete range of admixtures and additives for use in concrete, cement, and mortar production. These products enhance specific properties of the fresh or hardened concrete, such as workability, watertightness, durability, load-bearing capacity, or early and final strength.
The effect of pozzolan additives (silica fume (SF) and nanosilica (NS)) on the strength, durability and microstructural properties of concrete made with recycled aggregates (RAs) was investigated in this study.
Cement Additives. Cement additives are materials added to cement for the optimization of the cement properties and the cement grinding process. Cement additives are classified into different product groups such as grinding aids, strength enhancers and performance enhancers.
