Full Description
This document describes the analytical procedures used to determine the content of C
3A in the clinker starting from a chemical analysis on cement. The method can be applied to CEM type I and IV for thedetermination of the requirement of C
3A, as defined on EN 197-1.This document describes two methods, traditional wet and XRF analysis (EN 196-2), which can be considered to be equivalent, in the scope of this CEN/TR 17365, for the determination of Al
2O
3, Fe
2O
3 and SO
3.The same methods are described in EN 196-2, but for the scope of this document, the X-ray fluorescence(XRF) is the preferred method to be used for the determination of Al
2O
3, Fe
2O
3 and SO
3.
