This book was released on 2020-02-03 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bulky document on cement science and manufacturing technology is difficult for a college junior to easily understand. Thus, it is better to write a short and precise book that contains only the necessary basic content. This introductory book is designed as a short and concise resource for undergraduate university students studying chemical science (chemistry and chemical engineering), material science, geology, and construction technology. It emphasizes different types of cement, admixtures, and how to analyze the chemical compositions of cement in the laboratory. Technical procedures of cement analysis are very important for determining and comparing chemical compositions. This book describes the detailed procedures for different test parameters.
