The dehydration process of gypsum under high pressure

The effects of pressure on the dehydration of gypsum materials were investigated up to 633 K and 25 GPa by using Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron X-ray diffraction with an externally heated diamond anvil cell. At 2.5 GPa, gypsum starts to dehydrate around 428 K, by forming bassanite, CaSO4 hemihydrate, which completely …

Formation of α-Hemihydrate Inside of a Gypsum Crystal …

Gypsum (calcium sulfate dihydrate) is one of the most used inorganic binding materials in the world. During calcination, calcium sulfate subhydrates are formed and, for technical reasons, are mixed with water to form dihydrate again. Therefore, the dehydration process of gypsum and the rehydration of hemihydrate were investigated. …

Kinetics and Mechanism of the Dehydration of Calcium …

We studied the kinetics and mechanism of the dehydration reaction of calcium sulfate dihydrate to hemihydrate under controlled temperature and water vapor partial pressure. From kinetic and reaction rate curves obtained using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under isothermal and isobaric conditions, we determined the overall …

2 Gypsum dehydration during cement production

Depending on the mill temperature, the gypsum becomes partially or completely dehydrated to hemihydrate or anhydrite respectively. According to [8] the temperatures at which gypsum dehydration to hemihydrate can take place lie between 95 and 170 °C. The results of [9] indicate that gypsum dehydration can even begin at temperatures below …

Calcium Sulfate Dihydrate

Naturally occurring crystals are calcium sulfate dihydrate, CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O, known as gypsum, and anhydrous calcium sulfate, II-CaSO 4. When gypsum is heated, dehydration occurs to form hemihydrates, CaSO 4 ·1/2H 2 O, followed by anhydrite, III-CaSO 4. The hemihydrates and the anhydrite have two modifications, α and β, …

Measuring Crystal Water in Hydrates by Thermogravimetry

When dehydration or decomposition causes a weight change and the DTG signal (TG differential signal) passes over the upper limit threshold, the temperature temporarily stops rising. At this temperature, an isothermal plateau (quasi-isothermal condition) is maintained and the weight change due to dehydration or decomposition is measured.

The thermal dehydration of synthetic gypsum

The kinetics of the dehydration of gypsum is dependent on the origin of the gypsum and on the impurities in the gypsum samples. ... No hemihydrate was observed. At 60, a very small amount of the hemihydrate is observed, indicating the very slow dehydration of the dihydrate at temperatures below 95 (using a heating rate of 5 …

The thermal dehydration of synthetic gypsum

Using a heating rate of 5°C min −1, the very slow dehydration of CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O and impurities in the gypsum samples start at temperatures lower than 95°C. The main dehydration of the calcium sulphate dehydrate part of synthetic gypsum occurs between 95 and 170°C (heating rate 5°C min −1 ) and seems to proceed via a process …
