CEMENT GRINDING AID

EUCEM CGA 5A is a technical grade diethylene glycol which has been proven to be a cost effective additive for the grinding of Portland cement. Depending on cement and plant characteristics, EUCEM CGA 5A is also effective in improving cement flow characteristics and preventing pack set.

Features & Benefits

• Mill production is increased up to 15% depending on the efficiency of the equipment and the characteristics of the material to be ground.
• Grinding energy requirements and therefore grinding costs are reduced.
• The particle size distribution of the ground cement is improved, resulting in a more thorough hydration.
• Improved performance in both closed and open circuit systems at equal specific surface area or equal sieve residues.
• The mechanical strengths of cements are maintained or increased at all ages.
• Bulk density is increased.
• Powder flow characteristics are improved before, during and after storage.
• Pack set tendencies and coating are reduced.
• The risk of false set is reduced due to the lower grinding temperatures.
