Portland Slag Cement (PSC)
PSC
consists of 25-70% granulated slag, 3% gypsum and the rest is clinker.
Granulated slag is, essentially, a non-metallic product comprising more than
90% glass content with silicates and alumino-silicates of lime. At Sagar
Cement, we use superior quality slag conforming to IS: 12089 standards for
producing PSC.
Characteristics
Higher
level of compressive strengths in concrete when compared to OPC
Higher
flexural strength to concrete, which enhances its structural stiffness and
minimises load deflections
Reduces
the ingression of harmful substances such as chlorides and sulphates due to low
permeability
Environment-friendly
due to reduced GHG emissions
