Clinker Cement Specification and Composition

This document specifies the parameters and composition of clinker, which is an intermediate product in the cement manufacturing process. It lists 16 parameters that clinker should meet, including physical parameters like size and moisture content, chemical parameters like calcium oxide and silica levels, and mineralogical phase contents. The clinker's composition must fall within tight ranges to ensure it meets requirements for cement production.
