Among cement types, Portland Cement is the most common. It is usually made by heating limestone (calcium carbonate) in a kiln with clay. This process is known as calcination and it liberates carbon dioxide from the calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide. This compound is then mixed with the other materials to form ‘clinkers’ i.e. cementitious compounds such as calcium silicates. These clinkers are then mixed with a small amount of gypsum into a powder to make Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC.)
As Ordinary Portland Cement is made of limestone, it’s important to source the best limestone possible to produce the best quality cement. And when it comes to this, no one can beat Wonder Cement.
Wonder Cement mines limestone using eco-friendly blasting technology called NONEL (Shock Tube.) The newly mined limestone is then sent for crushing, grinding and packaging. This entire process is fully automated and adheres to strict quality standards. To ensure these standards are met, the ROBOTIC (POLAB) system has been deployed by Wonder Cement.
Ordinary Portland Cement by Wonder Cement is ideal for applications like high-rise buildings, commercial and industrial complexes, roads, runways, bridges and flyovers, heavy defence structures, etc.
OPC by Wonder Cement has many incredible benefits. Some of them are:
Due to its low percentage of alkalis, chlorides, magnesia and free line in its composition, the concrete made of Ordinary Portland Cement is highly durable and sound
OPC has an almost negligible amount of chloride, this results in restraining corrosion of the concrete structure even in highly hostile environments
Due to its high strength, one can save a significant amount in cement consumption while making concrete of grades M15, M20, M25, and M35 with OPC
Apart from OPC, Wonder Cement also makes Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) and Xtreme.
