Get PriceA cement is a binder a chemical substance used for construction that sets hardens and adheres to other materials to bind them together Cement is seldom used on its own but rather to bind sand and gravel aggregate together Cement mixed with fine aggregate produces mortar for masonry or with sand and gravel produces concrete
Get PriceThere are four stages in the manufacture of portland cement 1 crushing and grinding the raw materials 2 blending the materials in the correct proportions 3 burning the prepared mix in a kiln and 4 grinding the burned product known as clinker together with some 5 percent of gypsum to control the time of set of the cement
Get PriceConcrete is a combination of cement sand or other fine aggregates and a coarse aggregate ranging in size from 19 to 25 mm People use concrete in a wide range of construction applications Some applications of the different types of cement include Plastering masonry construction pointing and other purposes
Get PriceIn layman s terms the difference between aggregate cement and concrete is as follows Aggregate is a mineral or rock that has been broken down into smaller pieces On the other hand cement is a fine powder that acts as adhesive to bind the aggregate together so it becomes harder than just loose rocks placed together on their own
Get Price• Chemically cement is a mixture of calcium silicates and small amounts of calcium aluminates that react with water and cause the cement to set • Calcium derives from limestone and clay mudstone or shale as the source of the silica and alumina • The mix is completed with the addition of 5% gypsum to help retard the setting time of the cement
