A polymer of calcium aluminate and water glass as cement substitute.

Key Points

• To explore the potential of a polymer made from calcium aluminate and water glass as an effective substitute for traditional cement.
• Developed a polymer combining calcium aluminate and water glass.
• Conducted emissions analysis comparing traditional cement to the polymer substitute.
• Component emissions from ordinary Portland cement (OPC) reduced from 8% to below 2% with the use of the polymer substitute.
