CA70 Refractory Cement is a high-purity calcium aluminate cement containing approximately 70% alumina (Al₂O₃). It is specially developed as a high-performance hydraulic binder for monolithic refractory applications requiring excellent mechanical strength, controlled setting behavior, and reliable high-temperature performance.
With its high calcium aluminate content and low impurity levels, CA70 Refractory Cement is widely used in low cement castables, ultra-low cement castables, self-flow castables, wet shotcrete, and other high-performance refractory formulations.
CA70 Refractory Cement is available in three grades: CA70, CA70W, and CA70S. Each grade is formulated with different setting and workability characteristics to meet different installation conditions and temperature requirements.
