Clinker or kiln slag refers to dark gray grains with a diameter of 3-25 mm, which is produced by heating clay and limestone at a temperature of 1400-1500 degrees Celsius without any change in its properties. It can be stored in a dry place for a long time. Cement factories buy clinker for cement production in areas where raw materials are scarce or not available. Cement is generally produced in two ways. In the wet method, clinker, which is the raw material for cement production, is mixed with water and grounded, but in the dry method, the cement raw materials are combined and grounded in a dry form.
Cement and clinker are not two similar materials. Cement is a powder-like material used in the construction industry, while clinker is used to produce cement. During the cement production process, clinker is created in the furnace, so that the raw materials that enter the furnace are heated, and when the temperature of the furnace increases and reaches its highest point, clinker is produced with a sudden decrease in temperature. Types of clinker differ according to the type of cement that is produced.
Clinker is combined with clay and additives and is used in the form of gray balls as a practical material in the production of cement. Various materials are used to create specific characteristics in manufactured cement. Including gypsum, which is added to clinker and gives important properties to cement and increases its compressive strength. In addition, it prevents the accumulation and coating of powder on the surface of the wall of the mill. The most important cement produced by factories is Portland cement, but certain active compounds of chemical mixtures may be added to clinker to produce other types of cement such as pozzolanic cement, silica foam, etc.
Cement factories usually use clinker as a raw material if their access to other materials is limited or expensive. Clinkers are classified into types 1, 2, and 5 in terms of composition, each of which has its own use, which has enabled construction companies to easily use these products for implementation of any projects.
Clinker is also known as furnace slag and has a dark gray color, the diameter of which varies between 3 and 25 mm. If 5 units of organic sulfur trioxide are used in the production of clinker, it is called type 2 clinker, of course, the percentage of other raw materials is also very important, which is checked and analyzed separately in the laboratory unit.
The clinker of each factory has different analysis and purities, and according to the type of clinker, the properties will also be different, but the analysis of clinker in general is as follows:
