Difference between Calcination and Portland cement

Calcination vs. Portland cement

The IUPAC defines calcination as "heating to high temperatures in air or oxygen". Portland cement is the most common type of cement in general use around the world as a basic ingredient of concrete, mortar, stucco, and non-specialty grout.
