Determination of the indicators of cement quality by automatic analyzers

Using analytical equipment manufactured by LECO Corporation (USA) for laboratory analyses of cement for such parameters as moisture content, loss on ignition (LOI), and the content of sulfur and carbon is described. The use of automatic analyzers can significantly reduce the complexity and time spent on these types of research with the accuracy of the results meeting the requirements of GOST 5382-91 "Cements and materials of cement production. Methods of chemical analysis".
