Abstract:Herein, an in situ high-temperature synchrotron X-ray diffraction study of gypsum is performed in the temperature range of 30-200 °C to investigate the continuous structural change from gypsum to soluble anhydrite through hemihydrate. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis curves reveal that dehydration occurs in two stages. The diffraction peaks of hemihydrate with the trigonal space group P3121 gradually become sharper above 90 °C, whereas those of gypsum become less intense and cannot be disti… Show more
