Navrattan Green Crete is a ‘Geopolymeric’ cement from Navrattan Green Cement Industries Pvt. Ltd. It is ecological friendly cement because Navrattan Green Crete uses a proprietary binder derived through a species of algae and follows a guarded extraction process which ultimately transforms an enzyme of the algae into a highly concentrated Elastic Polymeric powder. The process for manufacturing Navrattan Green Crete involves several organic sources of feedstock, domestic and marine plants including seaweed. The process has potentially improved the product’s ability to meet the economic and ecological challenges.
The magic of Navrattan cement polymer is that it binds by Covalent bonding which is the joining of two atoms when the two share a pair of electrons. Individual polymer chains in the cement proprietary binder are linked together by these covalent bonds to form one single molecule with all of the aggregates. Besides, a thin plastic film cross-links and permeates the entire mixture adding flexibility.
Due to the covalent bonding nature of Navrattan Green Crete, it becomes monolithic and cures by an Exothermic Reaction, which intrinsically expels the water.
Here are the structural qualities of Navrattan Green Crete:
- The cement is stronger than a conventional cement and has higher compressive and tensile strength as compared to Portland cement and requires significantly less energy to produce, thus leaving a substantially smaller carbon footprint.
- High-performance green buildings built with green materials use less, waste less, and produce less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional buildings.
- Navrattan Green Crete meets and exceeds all the same testing standards like OPC and excels in every category.
- Navrattan Crete has a Low Coefficient of Expansion which helps it to work best in freezing and tropical regions of the world.
- The cement is Hydrophobic and therefore highly resistant to water, acids, corrosion, sulfates, and more.
- Navrattan Green Crete completely stops oxidation, ensuring that your structures are forever.
- The Cement is environment friendly, sustainable, reliable, durable and affordable.
- Navrattan Green Crete gives the cement super-insulating abilities no matter what aggregate is used – including cellulose or rock.
The structural qualities of the cement make it ideal for Waterproofing basements, Pipe coatings, countertops, Wastewater tanks, Sewerage, Fish farms, Boat hulls, Docks, etc. The innovative cement can be adjusted for quick setting applications as in pre-setting, slip forming, extruding. It can be formulated to have an adjustable set time from a few minutes to several hours.
