PROFI 42,5 N
Portland-composite cement

Universal cement for all concrete works that require high end strengths with normal run-up and higher load capacity of the structure. Ideal cement for the production of ready-mixed concrete. The lower development of heat of hydration predetermines it also for concreting in warm weather.


Characteristics

CEM II/B-M (S-LL) 42.5 N is a cement made by finely grinding Portland clinker, gypsum and limestone with blast furnace granulated slag (21-35% according to EN 197-1). It achieves a 2-day strength in the range from 21 to 24 MPa and a normalized 28-day strength of 49 to 53 MPa.


Usage

  • concrete of even higher strength classes
  • monolithic and massive concrete structures
  • sprayed concrete
  • concrete products
  • underlying concrete and cement screeds


Advantages

  • very good workability and volume stability
  • very good pumpability of concrete
  • moderately rapid increase in strength
  • moderately high hydration heat
  • high end strengths
