Thermal behaviour and kinetics of dehydration of gypsum in ...
Thermal expansion of gypsum is strongly anisotropic being larger along the b axis mainly due to the weakening of H2 O1 hydrogen bond. Dehydration of gypsum has been investi gated in isothermal conditions within the 348–403 K range with a temperature increase of 5 K. Dehydration proceeds through the CaSO 42H 2O ?
