• Slag cement, which performs high strength against chemical attacks thanks to its structure, has a low heat of hydration and is known to be more resistant than CEM I type portland cement in the long term, can be used in dams, harbours, treatment plants, irrigation canals, bridges and many other projects and is preferred more and more thanks to its economic quality. Moreover, this product which requires less use of clinker is a type of cement which has minimum impact on the environment in today's conditions. Slag cement reduces concrete costs and increases strength. Concrete which contains granulated blast furnace slag cement is less permeable, has lower hydration, higher operability and workability, higher strength and higher resistance against harmful attacks in many forms when compared to normal concrete. While type CEM III/A product contains slag at the rate of 36-65%, type CEM III/B product contains slag at the rate of 66-80%.
