Sand Portland cement

The results of R&D of compositions and properties of sand cement performed by GP «Institute NIISM» in cooperation with OAO Krasnoselsk-Stroymaterialy are presented. Relevant technical, legal and regulatory documents were developed; experimental pilot batches of sand cement were produced and tested in manufacturing of a number of construction materials. Its economic efficiency due to the reduction of the amount of clinker in the cement was proven. Sand Portland cement is commercially produced by PRUP Belorussky Cement Plant and PRUP Krichevcementnoshifer.
