Anhydrite, when dissolved, forms a solution of calcium sulfate, which at common temperatures and pressures is in equilibrium with the solid phase of gypsum, but not with anhydrite.

A microscope study has been made of the development of crystals of calcium sulphate hemihydrate produced on, or in, sheets of the dihydrate in the form of selenite by calcining under controlled conditions. The crystal forms were shown to be strongly dependent upon both temperature and ambient water vapour pressure.
· The growth rate of calcium sulphate dihydrate crystals, gypsum, in aqueous suspension has been shown to be screw dislocation controlled in the supersaturation range < C C s < composition experiments show that the overall rate of growth decreases with increasing mass of the crystals.
Dihydrate crystals that grow on the nuclei of crystallization in the form of radiation long needlelike crystals Spherical crystalline body of radiating crystal fibers. What happen if gypsum
In a recent court case in Ireland, pyriteinduced swelling of a mudstone aggregate backfill has been proven to have occurred and to have arisen from the growth of gypsum crystals in and around the aggregate fragments. There is a lack of published information on the subject and considerable debate exists regarding features associated with forceful crystallization.

· Gypsum hemihydrate was formed by dehydrating waste gypsum board in a sodium sulfate solution at 100 °C for 1 h to form needlelike crystals. The large gypsum dihydrate was formed by lowering the temperature of the gypsum hemihydrate suspension below 80 °C.
Calcium(II) sulfate dihydrate, Gypsum stone, Hydrated calcium sulfate, Mineral white [Note: Gypsum is the dihydrate form of calcium sulfate; Plaster of Paris is the hemihydrate form.] White or nearly white, odorless, crystalline solid.
Gypsum is monoclinic and usually occurs as twinned tabular crystals although it may also occur as simple. Gypsum also forms fine granular masses, at times coarse. In its typical form, gypsum is colorless or white but if impurities are present then it may be red, brown or orange and it cleaves into plates that can be bent but are not flexible.
· Gypsum crystals form as the water in Lake Lucero evaporates. Gypsum is a hydrous, soft sulfate mineral, specifically a calcium sulfate dihydrate, which means it has two molecules of water in its chemical composition. This is seen in its chemical formula is CaSO 4 2H 2 0.

limited gypsum discharge capacity, and/or a potential market for this purer gypsum. This highyield process (approximately %) produces a relatively strong acid (approx. 36% of P 2 O 5 ) and a dry gypsum (less than 8% humidity) by natural rehydration of hemihydrate and dihydrate.

Gypsum occurs naturally in salt deposits and deserts, where "desert rose" crystals form in combination with quartz inclusions. In natural salt deposits, gypsum and anhydrite sometimes form a caprock,, a massive layer of material covering the deposit.
· process (x = 2, gypsum as the final crystal form) and the nondihydrate process (also known as the hemihydrate process because hemihydrate is involved, although it is not necessarily the final crystal form). The dihydrate process is the earliest developed industrial phosphoric acid production technology.
386 Maleic anhydride (C 4H2O3) was used as crystal modifier and % of C 4H2O3 from the mass of dry materials (gypsum) was added to solution. The results revealed that when the systems containing Al 3+, Mg 2+, F[20] as well as Fe 3+ and Na + in addition to dihydrate gypsum are processed under hydrothermal conditions at 128 °C
rosette crystal arms and to complete elimination of surface crystals at a sufficiently high antiscalant dosage. The present study demonstrates that gypsum scale development is affected by the formation of surface crystals on the membrane surface, thereby suggesting that there is merit
High Pressure Form of Calcium Sulphate. tWaterShort Gypsum".. and the small crystals which are formed are so entangled in each other that a very hard mass results." Gypsum is composed of calcium sulphate dihydrate () and has the very useful property of being
