MASCEM |
|
| |
|
MASCEM is the trade name of
a specially manufactured Portland-fly ash cement produced
by blending good quality fly ash with Ordinary Portland
Cement (CEM I).
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
CERTIFICATIONS
MASCEM is certified to MS 1227
: 2003 Specification for Portland-fly ash cement
(fly ash content (fly ash content 6 - 35%). MASCEM
also conforms to CEM II/B-V of MS 522-1 : 2007 (EN
197-1 : 2000). |
 |
|
|
|
APPLICATIONS
MASCEM is suitable for applications
in marine environment, mass concreting, sulfate
environment, water retaining structures, basement
and other structures which require low heat of
hydration.

PROPERTIES

|
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
MARINECEM is produced using the most advanced energy efficient cement production process.
The use of high quality ash to replace a portion of the clinker served to reduce significantly
the total embodied CO2/ton of the product. Every ton of fly ash used to replace clinker
saves around 900kg of CO2 being released into the environment and this makes MASCEM a more sustainable cement.

AVAILABILITY
MASCEM is available in bulk from YTL Westport cement plant.
|
|
|
QUALITY ASSURANCE
MASCEM is produced under stringent quality assurance, environmental management and health & safety
systems. It is certified to MS ISO 9001, MS ISO 14001 & OHSAS 18001.

HIGHER RESISTANCE TO SULFATE ATTACKS
The UK Building Research Establishment (BRE) Digest 363 : 1996 and BS 5328 : Part 1 : 1997
have recommended the use of high PFA content cement (>25% by mass of combinations) be extended to
the most severe Class '4' and Class '5' sulfate conditions.

PROTECTION AGAINST ALKALI-SILICA REACTIVITY
MASCEM reduces risk of damage and expansion caused by alkali-silica reaction. Recommendations
and guidelines are given in BS 5328: Part 1 : 1997, UK Concrete Society Technical Report No.30(1995) and
BRE Digest 330:1997.
