Seeing this title, I feel incredible, gypsum has such a role, ah, the original gypsum in the production of aerated bricks as a regulator in the process of gas. It is a commonly used cementitious material. Gypsum not only acts as a regulator of gas evolution process, but also participates in hydrothermal synthesis reaction, which can improve product strength, reduce shrinkage and improve frost resistance. Gypsum in the production of aerated brick mainly has the following aspects:

　　，參加鋁粉的發(fā)氣反應(yīng)，當(dāng)有石膏存在時(shí)，同鋁粉在與水反應(yīng)時(shí)生成的氫氧化鋁反應(yīng)生成硫鋁酸鈣。因此，在某些加氣磚(如水泥-礦渣-砂，水泥-砂)中，水泥中石膏被鋁粉的反應(yīng)消耗過(guò)多時(shí)，由于水泥中鋁酸鹽成分得不到石膏的抑制就可能發(fā)生快速凝結(jié)，這時(shí)應(yīng)補(bǔ)充加入石膏。

　　Firstly, it participates in the gasification reaction of aluminium powder. When gypsum exists, it reacts with aluminium hydroxide formed when aluminium powder reacts with water to produce calcium sulphoaluminate. Therefore, in some aerated bricks (such as cement-slag-sand, cement-sand), when gypsum in cement is consumed too much by the reaction of aluminium powder, rapid setting may occur because aluminate in cement can not be inhibited by gypsum, gypsum should be added at this time.

　　第二，抑制石灰的消化，使其消化時(shí)間延長(zhǎng)，并降低終消化溫度。

　　Second, inhibit the digestion of lime, prolong the digestion time and reduce the final digestion temperature.

　　第三，可以抑制水石榴子石的生成，從而使游離的鋁離子進(jìn)入CSH(I)中，其中部分轉(zhuǎn)化為鋁代托勃莫來(lái)石，而AI2O3本身也能促進(jìn)CSH(I)向托勃莫來(lái)石轉(zhuǎn)化，阻止其向硬硅鈣石轉(zhuǎn)化，因而強(qiáng)度提高，收縮值降低。

　　Thirdly, the formation of hydrogarnet can be inhibited, so that free aluminium ions can enter CSH (I), some of which can be converted into aluminium-substituted tobermorite, while AI2O3 itself can also promote the transformation of CSH (I) to tobermorite and prevent its transformation to anhydrite, thus increasing its strength and decreasing its shrinkage value.

　　第四，提高坯體及制品的強(qiáng)度，改善收縮等性能。石膏在靜停過(guò)程中的坯體內(nèi)參與生成水化硫鋁酸鈣和C-S-H凝膠，使坯體強(qiáng)度提高。增強(qiáng)了坯體適應(yīng)蒸壓時(shí)溫差應(yīng)力和濕差應(yīng)力的能力。在蒸壓過(guò)程中，石膏可以促進(jìn)水熱反應(yīng)的進(jìn)行，使CSH(I)向托勃莫來(lái)石轉(zhuǎn)化。

　　Fourthly, the strength and shrinkage of green bodies and products should be improved. The gypsum participates in the formation of hydrated calcium sulphoaluminate and C-S-H gel during the static shutdown process, so as to increase the strength of the green body. It enhances the ability of green body to adapt to temperature and humidity differential stresses during autoclaving. In the autoclave process, gypsum can promote hydrothermal reaction and make CSH (I) transform to tobermorite.

　　看完上面的敘述您是不是明白了，石膏的作用真的很大，用途也是如此的廣闊。

　　After reading the above narrative, do you understand that gypsum really plays a very important role and has such a wide range of uses?
