Sulphate Resisting Portland Cement is a type of Portland cement in which the amount of Tricalcium aluminate (C3A) is restricted to lower than 5 % and (2 C3A + C4AF) is lower than 25%. SRC can be used for structural concrete wherever OPC or PPC or Slag Cement is usable under normal conditions. The use of SRC is particularly beneficial in such conditions where the concrete is exposed to the risk of deterioration due to sulphate attack. The use of SRC is recommended for following applications:

PPC has 80 per cent clinker, 15 per cent Pozzalona and 5 per cent gypsum and accounts for 18 per cent of the total cement consumption. It is manufactured because it uses fly ashburnt claycoal waste as the main ingredient.
