The difference between cement and concrete and the advantages and disadvantages of concrete.

Cement and concrete are different. Cement is a cementing material, while concrete is a cementing fixture made of cement (cementing material) mixed with aggregate and water. The main difference between cement and concrete is generally reflected in the difference in materials and objects.

Different shape

Concrete is generally liquid and cement is generally powder.

The main components are different.

The main components of concrete are cement, sand, water and stone, while the main components of cement are limestone, clay and iron minerals.

Different material properties

Concrete is a substance, a mixture of cement, sand, stone and water. Cement is the binding material and auxiliary material for building decoration and construction.

Different hardness

The hardness of concrete is relatively high, while that of cement is relatively low.

Different wear resistance

Concrete has high wear resistance and good durability, while cement has lower wear resistance than concrete and is easy to be worn.

Different scope of application

Concrete is generally used for thermal insulation and waterproof construction, while cement is generally used for civil and industrial buildings.

superiority

The raw materials used in concrete are generally rich, and can be made into any shape, which has a wide range of uses and good acid, fire and oil resistance. And good radiation protection.

disadvantaged

The self-weight of concrete is generally large, the tensile strength is not high, and the early strength is also relatively low.
