Composition and Conformance
The natural pozzolana used in PPC enhances its performance by reacting with calcium hydroxide released during cement hydration, leading to improved durability, reduced permeability, and increased resistance to aggressive environments. This makes PPC 32.5N an environmentally friendly and sustainable choice for construction projects.
We set the discipline that applies engineering, physics, engineering mathematics, and materials science principles to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering disciplines since early times.
Technically, mechanical engineering is the application of the principles and problem-solving techniques of engineering from design to manufacturing to the marketplace for any object. Mechanical engineers analyze their work using the principles of motion, energy, and force.
Why Choose PPC 32.5N from East African Portland Cement PLC?
Enhanced Durability and Long-Term Performance:
