Cemex Fly Ash 450-N is suitable for use in non-hydraulic lime mortars to induce a hydraulic set and accelerate the setting process.
The material a by-product of the combustion of higher-ranking coals (and permitted co-combustion materials) for electricity generation and has been generally known in the UK as pulverized-fuel ash (PFA).

450-N conforms to the normal fineness (N) Category of BS EN 450-1, whilst still meeting the requirements for Loss on ignition Category B (2-7%). The maximum permitted residue on a 45ยต sieve is 40% but test results on the product would normally be well within this limit. The powder has a bulk density normally in the range of 800-1000 kg/m3.
