Calcium Aluminate Cements, available with both 70% and 80% alumina content, are very white, high purity hydraulic bonding agents providing controlled setting times and strength development for today's high performance refractory products.
Calcium Aluminate Cement Applications
calcium aluminate cements are for use in refractories designed for service up to 1800°C (3300°F):
- Vibration and self-flowing castable mixes
- Quick-setting mortar, joining mixtures, self-leveling floors, and compensation compounds
- Refractory castables for:
- Iron and steel industry
- Nonferrous metals industry
- Petrochemicals industry
Calcium Aluminate Cements
70% alumina cements provide the superior performance required by today's conventional and low moisture refractory concretes and mortars, with high consistency in casting properties and final product performance.
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| CA-14 W | General purpose "Winter" version with faster setting properties; high purity calcium aluminate cement most often used in low moisture, low cement and ultra low cement castable refractories |
| CA-14 M | General purpose "Moderate" version with median setting properties; high purity calcium aluminate cement most often used in low moisture, low cement and ultra low cement castable refractories |
| CA-14 S | General purpose "Summer" version with slow setting properties; high purity calcium aluminate cement most often used in low moisture, low cement and ultra low cement castable refractories |
| CA-270 | Calcium aluminate cement with very low water demand, excellent flow properties and high strength |
80% alumina cements are for applications where rapid setting, high early strength development and good strength at intermediate temperatures are required.
