摘要:
An additive for accelerating the setting reaction of gypsum products is disclosed. It comprises a gypsum accelerator combined with a bisulfate salt. The gypsum accelerator is calcium sulfate dihydrate. The accelerator may optionally be ground with a sugar, a starch and/or boric acid. A process utilizing this additive combination is also disclosed. The bisulfate salt is most advantageously prewet with a portion of the calcium sulfate hemihydrate feed before being combined with the gypsum accelerator, water and the remaining portion of the calcium sulfate hemihydrate feed in the main mixer.

A set accelerator for at least one of accelerating the hydration rate and reducing the set time of an aqueous slurry of calcium sulfate hemihydrate is described. The set accelerator consists of a mixture of ground calcium sulfate dihydrate and zinc sulfate material. Aluminum sulfate material is an optional component of the set accelerator. The set accelerator is particularly useful in accelerating the hydration rates of sprayable plasters. A fluid form of the set accelerator may be made by suspending the solids in water. The fluid form is advantageously used in ready mixed setting type joint compounds.
摘要:
This method relates to making a joint compound that includes predispersing a dedusting agent in water to make a predispersed dedusting agent. Dry components, including at least one filler, are combined to make a dry mixture. Process water is pumped into a vessel and the predispersed dedusting agent is introduced to the vessel. The dry mixture is then added to the vessel and all components are blended to make a homogeneous product.

The invention is directed to a joint tape for finishing a joint between boards comprising a nonwoven substrate that does not swell substantially in the presence of water. The invention further provides a method of finishing a joint between boards comprising (i) applying a joint tape of the invention to a joint between boards by embedding the joint tape in a first coat of joint compound, (ii) applying a second coat of joint compound over the tape, wherein step (ii) is carried out before the joint tape and joint compound applied in step (i) have substantially dried, and optionally (iii) applying a third fill or finish coat of joint compound over the tape, wherein step (iii) is carried out before the joint tape and second coat have substantially dried.
摘要:
A composition comprising calcined gypsum, trimetaphosphate ion, and a water-soluble linear polymer formed by the addition reaction of ethylene oxide and/or alkoxy-substituted ethylene oxide with water, having enhanced strength when set and exhibiting high plasticity and workability such that it readily can be applied to a substrate, is disclosed.
摘要:
A plaster composition for making molds for reproduction by casting is disclosed. Calcium sulfate hemihydrate, potassium sulfate and potassium sodium tartrate are mixed together. The potassium sulfate and potassium sodium tartrate are in a ratio of from about 1:1 to about 10:1. Potassium sodium tartrate is present in an amount of from about 1 to about 10 pounds per ton of dry calcium sulfate hemihydrate, and the total of the potassium sulfate and potassium sodium tartrate is from about 2 to about 35 pounds per ton of calcium sulfate hemihydrate. Methods of making and using molds of this composition are also disclosed.

摘要:
A dosage size multi-chambered, container having separate sealed compartments is provided and includes constituent materials for forming a wallboard joint compound. The container includes a first compartment containing a first mixture including calcined gypsum, a set preventer and water, and a second compartment sealed from the first compartment with a seal and containing a second mixture including a set initiator and water, wherein upon breaking of the seal, the first and second mixtures are combinable by kneading action to provide a dose of the wallboard joint compound.

摘要:
An acoustical panel includes an acoustical layer has an interlocking matrix of calcium sulfate dihydrate, polyethylene glycol and at least one of the group fibers, a lightweight aggregate and mixtures thereof. The acoustical layer has voids in the interlocking matrix that are configured to absorb sound. The polyethylene glycol is selected to agglomerate dust at temperatures generated by friction when panel is cut.A method of making the acoustical panel includes making a slurry comprising calcium sulfate hemihydrate, polyethylene glycol, water and at least one of the group consisting of a lightweight aggregate, fibers and combinations thereof. Foam is added to the slurry, preferably at the mixer discharge. A continuous strip of acoustical layer material is formed from the slurry. The acoustical panels are formed by cutting the strip into individual panels. Finally, the partially hydrated calcium sulfate hemihydrate is allowed to fully set.
