Calcium aluminate (Ca₂Al₂O₅) is an inorganic ceramic compound commonly found as a primary phase in Portland cement clinker and calcium aluminate cement systems. It is valued in construction and refractory applications for its rapid hydration kinetics, early strength development, and chemical durability, making it particularly useful where fast setting, high-temperature performance, or aggressive chemical environments are critical design requirements.
