Cement is a mixture of compounds consisting mainly of silicates and aluminates of calcium formed out of silica, calcium oxide, aluminum oxide and iron oxide. We can state that cement is a hydraulic material made by finely grinding clinker (produced by burning a mixture of iron, calcium, aluminium and silica containing materials) together with Gypsum and other additives such as slag, pozzolana and fly ash.

In other words, Cement is an adhesive that is used to bind sand and aggregates to make concrete, the most versatile of building materials. Cement is manufactured by blending calcium, silicon, aluminum, iron and other ingredients (typically limestone, shale and clays) in a thermo chemical reaction to produce clinker, which is then ground to a fine powder (microns) and mixed with ground gypsum and other additives to make cement.

OPC and PPC Cement Manufacturing by Mohta Cement Pvt. Ltd

Mohta Cement Pvt. Ltd is one of the leading manufacturer and supplier of OPC Cement and PPC Cement.

(OPC) Ordinary Portland cement: –

Cement is prepared by heating limestone with small quantities of other materials (such as clay shells, silica and sand) to 1450°C in a kiln. The resulting hard substance, called ‘clinker’, is then ground with a small amount of gypsum into a powder to make ‘cement’ the most commonly used type of cement. This cement is called Ordinary Portland Cement.

It is the most common cement used in general concrete construction when there is no exposure to sulphates in the soil or groundwater.OPC is the most common type of cement in general use around the world, used as a basic ingredient of concrete, mortar, stucco, and most non-specialty grout.

Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)

Portland Pozzolana Cement also commonly known as PPC cement. These types of cement are manufactured by using pozzolanic materials as one of the main ingredient. This Cement is a kind of Blended Cement which is produced by either inter grinding of OPC clinker along with gypsum and pozzolanic materials in certain proportions or grinding the OPC clinker, gypsum and Pozzolanic materials separately and thoroughly blending them in certain proportions.

Difference between OPC and PPC Cement & Uses Are –

• Portland Pozzolana Cement is a variation of Ordinary Portland Cement. Pozzolana materials namely fly ash, volcanic ash, are added to the OPC so that it becomes PPC. Pozzolana materials are added to the cement in the ratio of 15% to 35% by weight.
• Both are ecofriendly materials but Pozzolana Cement uses natural and industrial waste thus reducing the environmental pollution.
• OPC is available in 3 grades namely grade 33, grade 43 and grade 53. Pozzolana is available in one grade and its strength matches the strength of grade 33 OPC after curing.
• OPC is the most commonly used cement in construction. PPC is highly resistant to sulphate attacks hence its prime use is in construction of dams ,foundations , buildings near the sea shore , reservoirs , marine construction to name a few.
• PPC is cheaper than OPC.
• PPC has low initial setting strength compared to OPC but hardens over a period of time with proper curing.
