Portland cement clinker is a hydraulic material which shall consist of at least two-thirds by mass of calcium silicates, (3 CaO·SiO 2, and 2 CaO·SiO 2), the remainder consisting of aluminium- and iron-containing clinker phases and other compounds. The ratio of CaO to SiO 2 shall not be less than 2.0.

Clinker is a nodular material produced in the kilning stage during the production of cement and is used as the binder in many cement products. The lumps or nodules of clinker are usually of diameter 3-25 mm and dark grey in color. It is produced by heating limestone and clay to the point of liquefaction at about 1400°C-1500°C in the rotary ...

Portland cement is the main cementitious component of foamed concrete. It has been used at dosages varying from as high as 1400 kg/m 3 to as low as 75 kg/m 3 but in practice, usually between 300 and 500 kg/m 3 ( ACI 523.1R-06, 2006; British Cement Association, 1994; Jones & McCarthy, 2005b; Papayianni & Milud, 2005 ).

Initial estimates suggest that 4.3 Gt of cement were produced globally in 2020. This is a modest increase from 4.2 Gt the previous year, driven in large part by infrastructure-related stimulus projects in China. China is the largest cement producer, accounting for about 55% of global production, followed by India at 8%.
