The hammer mill, being a short-time calcining system, grinds, dries, calcines and classifies the raw gypsum in a single step. The resulting stucco is suitable for the production of plasterboard, gypsum fiberboard and gypsum wall blocks. A hammer mill can process moist FGD gypsum, pre-crushed natural gypsum, or a mixture of both.
In order to prepare high strength plaster molds for investment casting, polypropylene and aluminum silicate hybrid fibers of contents 0.50 wt% were introduced into powder mixture of gypsum and mullite. The effects of different ball milling times on strengths of plaster molds were investigated in this work. To this end, modified mullite and gypsum …

3.2.1 gypsum gauging plaster for finish coat, n—a calcined gypsum plaster designed to be mixed with lime putty for the finish coat. 3.2.2 gypsum neat plaster, n—calcined gypsum mixed at the mill with other ingredients to control working quality and setting time. 3.2.2.1 Discussion—Neat plaster is either fibered or unfi-bered.
It is necessary to consider the dual problems of poor performance and low production efficiency that stem from the highly utilised water/gypsum ratios in the traditional preparation of phosphorus building gypsum (PBG)-based building materials. These problems cannot be easily overcome because that PBG tends to agglomerate at low water/gypsum …
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 70 °C.
