POWER MAX
PowerMAX 42,5 is a premium cement that combines excellent strength performance at all ages with versatility and enhanced durability benefits. PowerMAX 42,5 combines high technical performance for large projects with all round versatility for the small user. The characteristics of superior workability, high early and 28-day strengths in particular makes PowerMAX 42,5 the effective solution to the productivity demands of construction projects. The attribute of low heat of hydration reduces the risk of cracking in large concrete pours with lowered peak temperatures at all ages.
Applications for Power Max 42,5
Composition and Conformance PowerMAX 42,5 is produced at our plants by intergrinding Portland Cement Clinker with limestone and a strength enhancing additive. The product conforms to the KS EAS 18-1 cement standards as adopted from the EN-197 specification that is equivalent to the Uganda specification US 310-1 or US EAS 18-1. The product is classified as a CEM II/A-L 42,5 N Portland Limestone Cement.
Technical Data PowerMAX 42,5 meets all applicable physical and chemical requirements of the harmonized East African cement standard as per data below. Bamburi Ceme nt manufactures PowerMAX 42,5 in accordance with strict quality assurance and quality control procedures to ensure optimum product performance and consistency. There are many variables that affect concrete performance that are beyond the control of the manufacturer. Skilled persons should use cement with special attention given to batching, mixing, placing, finishing and curing. The judicious selection of concrete constituent materials with special emphasis on aggregates coupled with proper concrete mix design process will assist users in obtaining good results.
Benefits of using Power Max PowerMAX 42,5 retains the early age gain strength characteristics and 28 day strengths of Powerplus cement while having the following enhanced attributes:
Material and Safety Data INHALATION: Wear approved dust masks as breathing cement dust may cause nose, throat, lung irritation or choking. EYES: Wear glasses or safety goggles to prevent contact with eyes. Eye contact with cement may cause serious and potentially irreversible injuries. SKIN CONTACT: Wear impervious gloves, shoes and protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Prolonged skin contact with wet cement may cause serious burns. Repeated contact may cause contact dermatitis. INGESTION: In case of accidental ingestion, do not induce vomiting.
