Microstructural formation of gypsum by setting in the presence of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)

Abstract: The role of a polymer as a retarder additive is to enhance workability of the gypsum paste by modifying its setting process and to improve its properties. The study focuses on the influence of water-soluble cellulose derivative hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) on the setting kinetics as well as on the properties and the microstructure of gypsum. The influence of HPMC (used in mass fractions of up to 1.5%) on the kinetics of crystallization/hydration of hemihydrate calcium sulfate was investigated by heat f… Show more

“…During the hydration of calcium sulfate hemihydrate, calcium sulfate dihydrate (gypsum plaster) is formed. Three steps can be distinguished in the hydration reaction of calcium sulfate hemihydrate: the dissolution of hemihydrate yielding a partially saturated gypsum solution, the nucleation and growth of gypsum crystals, and the final formation of solid material through the entanglement of gypsum needle-like crystals (Mucha et al, 2020).…”
