Description

A hard durable cement. Oxychloride cement is made from a mixture of magnesium chloride and magnesium oxide in water. Extenders such as sawdust, sand, stone, or chalk may be added. Oxychloride cement was patented by M. Sorel, a French chemist in the 1870s. It is called a hydraulic cement because it will harden even when it is under water.
