What is the difference between concrete mortar and cement paste?
Cement paste is formed when cement is mixed with water. However, cement mortar is formed when cement is mixed with fine aggregate (sand) and water.The strength of cement mortar is more when compared to cement paste.Shrinkage will be less in cement mortar and high in cement paste.

Is white cement stronger than grey cement?
YesWhite cement is stronger than grey cement.Due to low content of iron oxide and high content of limestone the strength is greater .
Applications where tensile strength is the primary factor in material selection?
-Re-inforced cement concrete -High temperature services
What is correlation between strength of mortar to strength of concrete?
mortar are mixing by sand & cement and concrete is mixing by cement, sand & stone

Does cement rot?
No, cement won't rot.But cement losses its strength when it is not used for longer period.It is expected that there will be 50% of loss in strength when the cement is not used for more than 2 years.
