Cement. Cement is a finely milled mineral powder, usually grey in colour. The most important raw materials for the production of cement are limestone, clay, and marl. Mixed with water, cement serves as an adhesive to bind sand, gravel, and hard rock in concrete. Cement hardens both in the air and under water, and remains in its hardened state ...

The ore rocks are quarried and crushed into smaller …
اقرأ أكثرRequirement of White Cement Raw Material. The mineral composition of white cement clinker is basically the same as that of ordinary portland cement (OPC) clinker, mainly C 3 S and C 2 S. The difference is that there is little iron phase mineral C 4 AF in white cement clinker, which is because Fe 2 O 3 has a great impact on the whiteness of cement.
