As per specification of BDS EN 197-1:2010, CEM-I, 52.5 N Crown Portland Cement is a cement prepared by mixing of Clinker of 95-100% and Gypsum 0-5%. This cement is also called Portland Cement (PC). Clinker is produced by intimate mixing together of calcareous and argillaceous materials, burning them at clinkering temperature up to about 1450-1500°C.
The resulting product (calcined product) is then cooled which is called clinker. It is then ground with gypsum at required fineness to obtain Portland cement. So, it may be said that cement is a finely ground mixture of calcium aluminates and silicates capable of setting and hardening by chemical reaction in presence of water. It is a binding material, which is used in engineering constructions. It is one of the most utilized building materials of the world.
Fineness of Crown Portland Cement CEM-I is tested by air permeability method-Blaine Test. The specific surface of cement is commonly varying from 300-350 m2/kg.

The setting time of Crown Portland Cement CEM-I is tested by Vicat test method. Initial setting time for Portland cement is not less than 45 minutes. According to BDS EN Standard, there is no specific requirement for final setting time for Portland cement CEM-I but for regular practice crown cement maintains final setting time is not more than 375 minutes.

For acquisition of raw materials, all materials are tested by QA & Lab department before they are imported. After getting the QC passed certificate raw materials are approved for import & production of cement. At the time of cement production samples of cement are also tested each and every hour frequently. For quality assurance of cement, it is tested on various parameters. To do that, the chemists of Crown Cement PLC conduct Blaine, setting time, the compressive strength test by making concrete/mortar cubes for different test at-3 days, 7 days and 28 days, as per ASTM C-150 guideline, and 2 days & 28 days as per BDS EN guideline at quality control at laboratory. Chemical test also done according to standard requirements. After conforming all the parameters cements are permitted to deliver in highest quality to our valued customers.
