Also known as aluminous cement or high alumina cement (HAC), calcium aluminate cements (CACs) were developed to be impervious to sulfate.
CACs are also known as high-alumina cements (HACs) or aluminous cements, which resulted out of a drive to create cements that are resistant to sulfate.
Three important calcium aluminate hydrates develop during HAC hydration, namely two meta-stable phases, C2AH8, and CAH10, and the stable phase C3AH6.
Calcium aluminates (CACs) may be known by many other names such as aluminous cement or high alumina cement (HAC).
Rapid Prototyping (RP), also called Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF), can involve photolithography and stereolithography.
Rapid Prototyping (RP), also called Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF), can involve laser fusion or selective laser sintering.
Vision systems are used in industry for inspection, quality control, improvements to the safety of the working environment and for the guidance of robots.
