Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) makes concrete more impermeable, denser as compared to OPC. The long-term strength of PPC is higher compared to OPC. PPC produces less heat of hydration and offers greater resistance to the attack of aggressive waters than normal OPC. PPC can be used for all types of construction. Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC) PPC is a type of blended cement. It consists of 15-35% pozzolanic material, 4% gypsum and the rest is clinker. PPC as per BIS code is equivalent to that of 33 grade. Since the pozzolanic material reacts with calcium hydroxide liberated by the hydrating Portland cement and forms cementatious compounds, PPC makes the concrete more impermeable and denser. It can be confidently employed in construction of hydraulic structures, marine works, mass concreting etc. It protects concrete against alkali-aggregate reaction.
Advantages of PPC:
Trivia
Pozzolana is a natural or artificial material containing silica in a reactive form. Though it does not possess cementitious properties, it can chemically react with calcium hydroxide, when finely divided, at ordinary temperature to form compounds (calcium silicates) possessing cement properties.
Characteristics

Characteristics
Most popular general-purpose cement Accounts for ~50% of the total cement produced in India As per BIS requirements, the minimum 28-day compressive strength should be minimum 43 MPa and maximum 58 MPa
Ordinary Portland Cement
Ordinary Portland cement is the most commonly used cement for a wide range of applications. These applications cover ordinary, standard, high strength concretes, masonry and plastering works, precast concrete products for e.g., blocks, pipes etc., and specialized works such as precast and prestressed concrete.
