Considering Portland cement to be $90/ton and gypsum to be $30/ton (Kimball and Jewell 2016), a one cubic meter of mixture with the density of 1.4 (gr/cm3) with 8% Portland cement (112 kg, or of the total binder content) would cost $10.08, while a mixture of 2% gypsum (28 kg, or 25% of the total binder content) and 6% Portland cement (84 ...
To mitigate such effect, the construction industry developed new formulations of alkali-free accelerators, which contain sulfate ions in their composition to balance the C 3 A/SO 3 ratio. However, mixes with these accelerators may still behave as undersulfated [3, 6, 10] so that extra doses of sulfate are required to control C 3 A and C 4 AF hydration.A proper addition of …
The effects of the w/c and gypsum content on the hydration of CSAB cement and the formation of strätlingite were investigated with a series of experiments including mechanical testing, quantitative X-ray diffraction (XRD, QXRD), isothermal calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Gypsums shorten cement setting and thickening times opposite to the commonly known retardation effect due to the lower content of C3A and its acceleration on C3S hydration. Dihydrate and hemihydrate gypsums show a greater promotion effect on strength at 30 and 50 °C, while anhydrous gypsum presents a greater enhancing effect at 80 °C ...

LC3 cement is a type of cement that uses high additions contents, counting on the synergistic reaction between calcined clay and limestone to obtain mechanical strengths similar to those of traditional cements. This research intends to investigate the influence of the gypsum content on the compressive strength of a LC3 cement.
An interesting effect of initial Gypsum content on the Pseudo Formula Mass of CSH calibrated using the internal standard for PONKS analysis has been observed as can be seen in Fig. 10. The Pseudo Formula Mass of CSH steadily increases with the increase of initial Gypsum content starting from 6% and almost linearly up to 30%.
The retardation mechanism of gypsum is: when cement is hydrated, gypsum reacts with C3A quickly to generate calcium sulfoaluminate hydrate which deposits and forms a protection film on the cement particles to hinder the hydration of C3A and delay the setting time of cement. If the content of gypsum is too little, the retardation affect will be ...
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of gypsum and Portland cement as binding agents on the stabilization of soft sediment. Eight combinations of gypsum and Portland cement were studied to identify the optimum gypsum content for a total binder content of 8% (by wet weight of sediment). Samples were cured for 7 and 28 days at high and low temperatures …
For the most reactive type of cement with a high content of both C3A and alkalies, a reduced gypsum-hemihydrate ratio from 80/20 to 20/80 reduced the yield stress, while the plastic viscosity was not much affected. ... For a less reactive type of cement, the effect of the gypsum-hemihydrate ratio was not so pronounced, but for the lowest ratio ...

The CSAB system with additional gypsum will have ettringite as the major hydration product. The surplus gypsum will promote ettringite formation at the expense of monosulfate, limiting its capacity to bind carbon dioxide. The microstructure of PC system will also be influenced by blending it with CSA admixture or CSAB cement and gypsum.
