Clinker in Cement

Clinker in Cement, In general, it is necessary to grind the grains of this material in a mill and turn them into powder particles. Of course, other compounds are also added to the clinker to add physical and chemical properties to the cement. The first and most important additive is gypsum, which strengthens the most important property of cement, namely its compressive strength.

Another substance that is added to the cement composition at a weight of 0.1% is triethanolamine. This substance prevents the accumulation of powder particles in the cement production process. Other additives that are added to the clinker in the cement production process include the following:

Ethylene Glycol

Oleic Acid

Dodecyl-Benzene Sulfonate

Clinker in Cement for Portland grade

Portland cement is the most common type of cement made from clinker. Other types of cement produced by combining chemical additives with clinker include: Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag Cement Pozzolana Cement Silica Fume Cement
