Portland Cements
Type I,II
This is a general-purpose cement that is suitable for all uses where the special properties of other types of Portland cement are not required.
Type I,II Low Alkali
Has moderate sulfate resistance properties and is used when provisions against moderate sulfate attack are important.
Type III Low Alkali
Provides higher strengths at an earlier age as compared to Type I. Type III is very similar to Type I, except its particles have been ground finer, making it more reactive. Type III Portland cements are useful when quick form turn- around times are necessary.
