The effect of time on CaS and CO2 reaction were …

placing gypsum in a glass tube immersed in a paraffin bath and slowly heating the latter while recording the temperature of the gypsum by means of a thermometer. At 1280C and at 1680C there were breaks in the otherwise even rise of temperature, indicating that heat was being absorbed and an endothermic reaction was occurring.

No decomposition occurred at 114°C but complete decomposition to a mixture of gypsum and hemihydrate, together with amorphous material, occurred at 120°C. Upon stepwise reduction of temperature to 115°C, some reformation of ettringite occurred together with hemihydrate, while nearly complete reformation of ettringite occurred at 110°C.

The second stage was the conversion of 2Ca 2 SiO 4 ·CaSO 4 to Ca 2 SiO 4 (decomposition rate >60%), and three-dimensional diffusion was the controlling step. This …

Gypsum exposed to high temperature exhibits significant shrinkage, which could be reduced by a suitable filler. ... On the TG curve of the binary (gypsum-lime) binder, the decomposition of residual calcium hydroxide, (which was not entirely consumed by carbonation at after 28 days) can be seen in the interval 370–475 °C. The calcium ...

This would tend to increase the decomposition temperature[7]. Such problems can be avoided by using a fluidized bed reactor, where temperature homogenit.v and high mass and heat transfer rates can be obtained. 3.2 Gypsum decomposition Gypsum (CaSO~. 2H20) becomes anhydrous at temperatures above 160: CaSOa" 2H20 ---* CaSO4 + 2H20 (2) At ...

The mass loss attributed to the calcite decomposition was similar in both samples. Microstructure of pastes. The SEM images of microstructure of all gypsum pastes (magnification 20,000 ×) ...

Decomposition of gypsum bonded investments was investigated by means of TG-DTA and X-ray diffraction. The decomposition began at about 900 degrees C and led to the formation of CaSiO3 as a major product and Ca2SiO4 as a minor one. ...

In this study, Temperature Programmed Decomposition (TPD) and Sequential Chemical Extraction (SCE) were applied to FGD gypsum to identify the Hg species in it. The FGD gypsum samples were collected from seven coal-fired power plants in China, with Hg concentrations ranging from 0.19 to 3.27 μg/g.

From the point of view of a sustainable and environment-friendly society based on the recycling of material resources, it is preferable to utilize waste gypsum as a substitute for lime, which is currently produced by the calcination of limestone. In the present work, the reductive decomposition of CaSO4 was investigated under an atmosphere of CO: 2 vol%, CO2: 30 …

Here, only MSW-gypsum decomposition is shown since MSW decomposition showed no mass-loss in this temperature zone for all the different O 2 concentrations examined here. This reveals that a significant interaction between MSW and gypsum occurs in the high temperature zone during pyrolysis, but these peaks are apparent as O 2 is added.

Abstract: The paper assesses the influence of the calcination temperature of synthetic gypsum binder on the binding properties of innovative gypsum pastes, as well as on masonry and plastering mortars.
