Q. What is cement made of?

A.Cement is made from lime, silica, and phosphorus, and also from alumina and iron oxide. Limestone is the primary component of cement and makes up 60-65% of it. Do you know? - the presence of 19 to 25 percent silica in water results in the formation of powerful chemicals. Small amounts of iron oxide (0.5 to 6%) contribute color and strength, while alumina (3 to 8%) helps set quickly. Both are present in small amounts. Other parts include calcium sulphate (gypsum), which controls how fast it sets, and magnesia, which makes it stronger. By carefully mixing these materials, we can create different kinds of cement that meet specific building needs, leading to strong and lasting structures.
