ALUMINA TO IRON RATIO (AR) >2.5 viscous clinker melt, high early strength, high heat of Al O hydration AR = 2 3 < 1.3 less viscous (wetter) brick infiltration, coating Fe2O3
washing, low early strength
SILICA RATIO Modulus (SR) (SM) >3 hard-to-burn clinker, scarce / thin coating, high thermal SiO2 SR = loading, dusty clinker, high early strength Al2O3 + Fe2O3 < 2 excess & unstable coating, brick fluxing, clinker
balling, snowman and ring formation
> 98 hard-to-burn, high free lime & C3S higher early strength, higher fuel consumption. < 90 easy to burn, excess coating, excess liquid phase, possible brick infiltration, reduced cement strength, low free lime.
