Sieving Portland Cement for Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC)

What is Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC)? Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a next-generation building material known for its exceptional strength, durability, and long-term structural stability. UHPC is used in demanding applications such as bridges, tunnels, infrastructure repair, and architectural facades, offering significantly improved lifespan and performance compared to conventional concrete. The key to UHPC’s extraordinary properties lies in precisely controlling the particle size of its main ingredient—Portland cement.

Contract Manufacturing Experience

Achieving precise particle size distributions is critical to the performance of UHPC. Fine particles below 20 microns significantly increase the cement’s surface area, accelerating hydration reactions and enhancing strength. Traditional sieving methods often fail due to the extreme fineness and tendency for agglomeration, resulting in inconsistent particle distribution and reduced product quality. Properly screened cement powder ensures predictable strength, improved durability, and optimized workability in UHPC applications.

Elcan Industries brings extensive expertise in sieving ultra-fine powders required for UHPC. Our specialized high-energy Hi-Sifter screening machine efficiently sieves Portland cement down to sizes as fine as 20 microns, preventing screen mesh blinding by continuously applying vertical energy into the screen, breaking up cement agglomerates. For applications requiring even finer separations down to 10 microns, our Elbow Jet Air Classifier provides an unmatched no-screen solution. Manufacturers can trial their cement powders at our advanced particle processing facility, allowing full-scale optimization before production.
