HIGH ALUMINA CEMENT

ROMCEM are a range of hydraulically setting refractory binders (High Alumina Cement)  manufactured under strict quality assurance system. The rheological properties of ROMCEM are well adapted for casting & gunning. Supplied in 50 kg HDPE bags packed with an extra moisture resistant barrier inside. Like all other hydraulic binders these products must be stored in a dry condition. They have a shelf-life 6 months. However in many instances properties are retained for over a year also.

 

ROMCEM-50

ROMCEM-50 containing 50 per cent Alumina is ideally suitable for making conventional and insulating castables. The principle components are Calcium Aluminates with low iron content because of which it has a high refractoriness. Its high Monocalcium Aluminate phase provide refractory castables made with ROMCEM-50 rapid hardening properties with excellent mechanical strength.

The properties indicated in the table are determined as per the Indian Standard methods.

 

ROMCEM-65

ROMCEM-65 is a high purity hydraulic refractory binder containing about 65 per cent Alumina, which is designed to be used at temperature around 1600^OC. If used with selected refractory aggregates, even higher refractoriness can be achieved.

The high Alumina with relatively low iron content impart superb corrosion, abrasion resistances and excellent thermo-mechanical properties. With an incorporated balance between CA & CA₂  phases in the product, extreme fineness of around 4000 (cm²/g) along with other properties, ROMCEM-65 is recommended for use in all high refractory technology castables where applications like -  rapid hardening combined with exceptional mechanical performance at high temperatures are required.
