Penna Power PPC Cement
PPC is a special blended cement as per BIS specification, IS: 1489, and is produced by inter-grinding Ordinary Portland Cement clinker with high quality processed fly ash along with gypsum. Due to its inherent characteristics, PPC aids in creating corrosion resistant concrete that is far superior to concrete made with OPC. The use of blended cement in concrete reduces crack formation, improves workability, inhibits sulphate attacks and reduces the heat of hydration. Moreover, its 28 days strength proves to be much better than OPC 53 Grade.
BUILD HOMES
CEMENT
Build homes for the masses of India in its cities, towns and villages as well as enduring structures for infrastructure.
OPC is manufactured by inter-grinding 95% of cement clinker with 5% of gypsum in a closed circuit ball mill with a high-efficiency separator to the required fineness.
Advantages of Using OPC
OPC is an all-purpose type of cement and can find applications in any concrete structure. As it is premium quality cement, with fast setting and fast strength development, most builders prefer OPC to ensure on-time project completion. In M20, M25 and M30 types of concrete, OPC is used to attain high initial strength and also to achieve a lower specific cement consumption. Since OPC comprises low percentage of minor constituents, such as alkalis and chlorites, its durability and soundness are ensured.
OPC’s Areas of Application
OPC is used in high-rise industrial buildings, slabs and roofs of apartments and bridges.
PPC is manufactured by inter-grinding 65% of cement clinker with 30% of fly ash and 5% of gypsum in a closed circuit ball mill with a high-efficiency separator to achieve the required fineness.
Advantages of Using PPC
Using PPC eliminates surface cracks due to low heat of hydration. Setting time is slightly more than OPC, which gives PPC more workable time. Strength development continues even after 28 days, giving ultimate higher strength to the concreate. Our addition of Fly Ash improves particle size distribution and gives a perfect concrete matrix. PPC is less porous than OPC, making it even more resistant to chemical attack. PPC is a more eco-friendly type of cement, with less production energy required to make each ton of cement by blending in high strength Fly Ash, a by-product from thermal power plants, which historically was disposed of through environmentally un-friendly, long-term land-filling.The manufacturing cost of PPC is lower than of OPC.
PPC’s Areas of Application
Suitable for RCC work in residential buildings and cement brick manufacturing. More suitable for marine works and for the construction of all types of buildings in coastal areas. Construction of dams, roads and runways. Better surface finish due to higher fineness.
