Blast furnace Cement III/B 42.5 N-LH/SR

You are in: Home 9 Products 9 Blast furnace Cement III/B 42.5 N-LH/SR

Description

Cement III/B 42.5 N-LH/SR is a blast furnace cement with a 42.5 resistance class with standard early resistance, low hydration heat and sulphate resistance conforming to UNI EN 197-1. In addition this cement has a high sulphate resistance (HSR) conforming to UNI 9156.

Composition

Cement III/B 42.5 N-LH/SR is composed of a percentage of clinker between 20 and 34%, a percentage of blast furnace slag between 66 and 80% and a maximum of 5% secondary components.
These percentages do not take into account the addition of calcium sulfate and of additives.

Conformity

The cement conforms to UNI EN 197-1, UNI 11834 for IAS certification and 305/2011/UE (CPR) guidelines.

Blast furnace Cement

TYPE III/B 42,5 N-LH/SR

The high mechanical strength combined with resistance to chemical attack derived from sulphates and a limited hydration heat make it ideal for:

Concrete in chemically aggressive environments in classes XD1, XD2, XD3, XS1, XS2, XS3, XA1, XA2, XA3

Reinforced concrete both above- and in-ground with high final strengths

Concrete for sewage works

Concrete for large-volume placements

CAM compliant concretes
