General advantages of PCB cement

  • Used for most types of projects where the concrete quality requirements are not too high.
  • There is no need for concrete to develop strength too quickly, low heat of hydration and low construction costs.
  • Reduces the risk of concrete cracking due to heat of hydration.
  • Creates mortar with high flexibility and strength.

So how are PCB30 cement and PCB40 cement different? The biggest difference between these two cement lines is the compressive strength limit after 3 days of age and 28 days of age according to TCVN 6260:2020.

Targets PCB30 cement PCB40 cement
Compressive strength After 3 days 14 N/mm2 (Mpa) After 28 days ≥ 30 N/mm2 (Mpa) After 3 days 18 N/mm2 (Mpa) After 28 days ≥ 40 N/mm2 (Mpa)
Application Increases the flexibility of mortar, enhances waterproofing and environmental resistance, and has good water retention ability. Increases the sustainability of the project and is suitable for Vietnam's climate. Cement quality is always stable, cement strength always has a large surplus, helping to save the amount of cement when used. Recommended for use in construction, painting, and plastering construction items. All civil and industrial projects. Transport works, irrigation works, infrastructure works Works with high intensity requirements and early development. In particular, it is suitable for structures such as foundations, columns, roofs, beams or large concrete structures with high compressive strength, bending strength and high chemical resistance.
Expense Lower Higher
