CaCd is a calcium-cadmium ceramic compound with a rock salt crystal structure, representing an intermetallic or compound ceramic in the alkaline-earth/transition-metal family. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established in high-volume industrial production, studied for its mechanical properties and potential applications in structural ceramics and advanced materials systems. Its notable stiffness and density profile make it relevant for investigations into durable ceramic matrices, though cadmium toxicity and environmental concerns significantly limit practical deployment in consumer or biomedical applications.
