Advantages of using sulphate resisting cement,
- It is used in marine construction
- Used in foundations and basements where soil is infested with sulphates.
- Concrete to be used in construction of sewage treatment works.
- Used in fabrication of pipes which are likely to be buried in sulphate bearing soil.

∙ 14y agoThe sulphate resistant cement is made with low C3A content is found to be effective. Such cement with low C3A and comparitively low C4AF content is known as sulphate resisting cement. This cement has a high silicate content.The specification generally limits the C3A content to 5 percent.

What are the chemical properties of cement?
Portland Cement is made by baking limestone to remove the carbonate, and to this is added some gypsum (to provide sulphate) and diatomaceous earth (effectively a very finely divided silica). When curing, many complex chemicals are formed, the crystals of which give cement its strength. Silicates, sulphates, and carbonates.
