Chemical Analysis of the Parameters Determining the Quality of a Case of Cement from Cement Sold on the Mbuji-Mayi Markets

This study aims to assess the quality of cement used in civil engineering. We have used the following approaches and techniques for data analysis: calcination conydexiométrie gravimetric and photometric. The results show that as regards the content of SO₃, MgO, Cao and alkali oxide, the cements are within the limits of the standards required by the Congolese Control Office (OCC). In view of these results, the conclusion is that the cements used in Mbujimayi can be effectively put to several uses that do not require special cements.
