CEM II/A-LL 42.5 N

Applications

  • Concrete DIN EN 206-1/DIN 1045-2
  • Recommended strength classes C8/10 to C35/45
  • Prestressed concrete according to DIN 1045-1

CEM II/A-LL 42.5 N

Composition:

TAPP Portland limestone cement CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N is a hydraulic binder according to EN 1971.
The main components of TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N are Portland cement
clinker brick and a selected limestone with high purity. Calcium sulphate is added to
control hardening.

Strict production control throughout the production process ensures an even quality
at a high level.

Properties:

The main advantages of TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N are in the fresh concrete
area. Fresh concrete holds together well, is supple and therefore easier to
process and pump. The good water retention prevents bleeding of the fresh
concrete.

This improves the appearance of exposed concrete surfaces.
TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N has a low chromatecontent. Addition of a chromate
reducer brings the content of watersoluble Chrome VI down to < 2 ppm.

Use: 

TAPP Portland limestone cement CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N can be used to
produce any concrete according to DIN EN 2061/DIN 10452.

TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N is also approved for concretes with a high frost and
thawing salt resistance.

TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N has the following areas of use:

Premixed concrete industry

Concretes made using TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N will remain processable and
compactioncapable well for a relatively long period of time.

Screeds

Screed mortars made with TAPP CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N can be transported very
well, compact very well, can be smoothed well and do not emit any water.


Concrete additives:

The addition of concrete additives is permitted according to DIN EN 2061/DIN
10452 when they comply with the relevant provisions or when subject to general
buildingsupervisory approval.

Approved concrete additives must only be used subject to the conditions named in
the approval notice.

When producing prestressed concrete according to DIN 10451 with direct
composite, only fly ash and silica dust or inert rock meals according to DIN EN
12620 as well as pigments proven not be to harmful for prestressing steel must
be used as additives.

An initial test according to DIN EN 2061/DIN 10452 is required when adding
concrete additives.

Concrete admixtures:

The addition of concrete admixtures is permitted according to DIN EN 2061/DIN
10452 when they comply with the relevant provisions or when subject to general
buildingsupervisory approval and are used subject to the conditions named there.

An initial test according to DIN EN 2061/DIN 10452 is required when adding
concrete admixtures.

Quality monitoring:

TAPP Portland limestone cement CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N is subject to internal
monitoring in our works labs.

Delivery:

Loose in the silo train and packed in bags with a content of 25 kg.
Storage:

TAPP Portland limestone cement CEM Il/ALL 42.5 N must be stored dry and
protected from moisture.
