Alumina Cement
Alumina cement’s main component is calcium aluminate unlike OPC(ordinary portland cement) which has calcium silicate as its main component.
Alumina cement is made by fine grinding of clinker which forms by dissolving alumina and calcium together at right ratio. Alumina cement is used for self-leveling mortar, ceramic flooring, tile adhesives, etc, and controls characteristics such as mortar’s rheology, curing, strength, shrinkage, etc.
Especially, Ternal White contains high alumina content and white appearance which is suitable for places where color and aesthetic qualities are important.
