white CSA CEMENT Calcium Sulfo Aluminate

An innovation in cement technology for aesthetic and technical applications.

is a special Calcium Sulfo Aluminate cement (CSA) designed for decorative concrete, terrazzo, flooring, glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), dry-mixed mortars, architectural precast, fiber cement and more. Specially selected high purity raw materials, optimized calcination and carefully monitored grinding guarantee a consistent white color.

Features:

• Fast setting • High early strength (1-day strength equals the 28-day strength of ordinary cement) • Continuous strength development (no loss of strength in time) • Rapid drying (C4A3Š autogenously binds excess water) • Shrinkage compensated – (little to NO shrinkage) • Low alkali

Benefits:

• Ideal for making “ fast set concrete” • Allows for quick-demolding • Rapid return to service • Compatible with various aggregates • Reduces efflorescence Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement increases strength, reduces set times, and decreases shrinkage of concrete mix designs. ,used as a stand-alone binder or blended with white portland cement delivers high early strength to incredibly durable concrete and mortar. Conventional retarding admixtures can be used to increase working time sacrificing early strength development

Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement is ideal for applications requiring high early strength and rapid setting. Concrete and mortar formulated with CSA cement are capable of obtaining the 28-day strength of ordinary cement in just one day.

Suitable projects include:

• Concrete runway repair • Bridge deck repair • Tunneling • Roadway repairs • Non-shrink grout • Concrete floor overlayment • Concrete repair mortar Low Carbon Footprint

The amount of energy used to produce Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement is significantly lower than for portlandcement. Portlandcement requires kiln temperatures of more than 1,500° (2,700° F)whereas CSA cement kiln temperatures are around 1,250°C (2,250°F). CSA clinker is softer than portlandcement clinker, requiring less energy to grind. These factors contribute to significant energy savings which delivers a carbon footprint 33% smaller than portlandcement.

Zero to Low Shrinkage

CSA cement achieves higher early strength than portlandcement allowing for the formulation of non-shrink and low-shrinkage concrete and mortar products. CSA cement utilizes nearly 100% of the mix water during hydration process, leaving very little water to contribute towards shrinkage. Hydration temperature is considerable lower than comparable quick setting systems Additionally, because of high early strength development, little or no shrinkage occurs after initial set.
