MasterCem ES 2156 - Cement additive engineered for enhancement of cement early strength and reduction of unit grinding energy / increase of cement mill throughput
What is MasterCem ES 2156?
MasterCem ES 2156 is a liquid, ready-to-use
cement additive designed to enhance cement
performance. In addition to acting as a Grinding Aid
in the milling process and a flow aid in cement
conveyance, MasterCem ES 2156 improves
specific cement properties by the activity of its
chemical components. These act in the
modification of clinker characteristics and in the
enhancement of its hydraulic properties.
Products of the MasterCem ES 2000 series are
specifically designed to increase early strength of
cement. These benefits can be used either for
achieving superior product performance or for
cement optimization while maintaining the original
performance level. Typical early strength
improvement is +10-25% at 1-2 days vs. plain
control. However, product performance is
dependent on grinding equipment characteristics,
process conditions, raw material properties and
cement type. To best benefit from cement additives,
mill and separator process parameters may need to
be adapted.
MasterCem ES 2156 improves the flow
characteristics of cement with positive impact on
cement conveyance and reduction of pack-set in
storage.
What is MasterCem ES 2156 used for?
MasterCem ES 2156 is developed for application
in the cement grinding process in:
- Ball mills (closed and open circuits)
- Vertical mills
- Other cement grinding systems
What are the benefits of MasterCem ES 2156?
MasterCem ES 2156 offers the following benefits
to cement producers:
- Cost reduction due to lower unit grinding energy (kWh/t) and optimization of cement fineness and composition while maintaining cement properties.
- Capacity extension due to higher mill throughput and optimized cement recipe.
- Sustainability due to reduced clinker factor and specific CO2 emissions. Gain of carbon credits.
- Product differentiation due to enhanced cement performance and improved properties for the final application.
- Improved cement handling due to faster
cement conveyance through the plant and in the
distribution logistics. Reduction of plant stops and
optimized storage in silos. Very low dust
generation during application and therefore a
good working environment.
