PPC CEMENT

 

 

What is PPC cement and How its Made?

PPC stands for Portland Pozzolana Cement, a type of cement made by blending clinker (created by heating limestone and clay) with gypsum and pozzolana materials like fly ash or volcanic ash. The addition of pozzolana enhances the strength and durability of the cement, making PPC cement a more robust option compared to regular Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC).

Factors That Make PPC Cement Suitable for Home Construction

Top ten factors that make PPC cement the best type of cement for home construction:

 

  1. Solid and Durable: The strong compressive strength of PPC cement ensures long-lasting structures that remain sturdy and stable for future generations.

     

  2. Eco-friendly: PPC cement is an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cement because it has a lower carbon footprint.

     

  3. Reduce Heat Generation: Lower heat hydration minimises cracking during the curing process.

     

  4. Easy Workability: PPC cement’s fine particles produce a smoother and more cohesive mix, which reduces the possibility of honeycombing or segregation in the concrete.

     

  5. Weather Resistance: It is highly resistant to aggressive surroundings and extreme weather conditions. It is well suited to coastal and high-humidity environments. 

     

  6. Durability: PPC cement considerably minimises the probability of alkali-aggregate reactions, lowering the risk of chemical reactions that could weaken the structure.

     

  7. Waterproofing: PPC cement has excellent impermeability which prevents water seepage and moisture-related damage.

     

  8. Cost-Effective: PPC cement’s durability and long-term performance decrease maintenance expenses. 

     

     

Additional Tips to Use PPC Cement for Homebuilding

 

  1. Proper Storage: Store PPC cement in a dry, enclosed area to prevent moisture absorption and maintain its quality.

     

  2. Mixing Ratios: Follow the recommended cement-to-sand ratios to achieve optimal strength.

     

Curing Process: Proper curing is essential to maximise the durability of PPC cement.
