 — Overview on Cement and cement types, its manufacturing process and mineral additives. Looking for cements and cement additives? Cement is a binding that sets, hardens, and adheres to other material to bind them together. It is manufactured through a closely controlled chemical combination of calcium, silicon, aluminum, iron …

Iron ore provides the necessary iron oxide in the cement mix. It acts as a fluxing agent, reducing the melting temperature of the raw materials and facilitating clinker formation. Iron oxide is crucial for production, ensuring the other raw materials for making cement fuse properly to form a solid and durable final product.
