How is gypsum useful in setting and hardening of cement?

थोडक्यात उत्तर

उत्तर

C3A readily combines vvith water and liberates a large amount of heat. The added gypsum retards the dissolution of C3A by forming insoluble calcium sulpho-aluminate 3CaO.Al2O3.xCaS04.7H20. This reaction prevents high concentration of alumina in the cement solution which retards the early initial set of the cement
