Screened slag is superior to river sand because the river sand/ crushed rock fines contain fossils and other irregular particles, such as clay and silt, that affect quality and durability. JSW screened slag meets all the requirements of IS:383-2015.
The Multi-fold Advantages of SSC
Screened slag doesn’t contain fossils and clay
Controlled physical and chemical properties
Improved durability of the structure
Gives improved bonding
Improves cohesiveness of Concrete / Mortar / Plaster mixes
Negligible silt content, thereby improving the strength parameters
Gives Improved strength to the concrete as compared to Natural sand
