This analysis was performed with two different ways of STPP addition： One was that the STPP was added into Plaster of Paris（POP）, then recycled plaster（R-SP） was obtained after a series of processes and the other was that the STPP was directly put into recycled plaster（R-PS）. The conclusions confirmed that STPP increased the water demand and delayed the hydration of R-PS. With regard to its hardened performance, STPP provided hardened recycled gypsum with a loose structure which led to the lower strength and higher water absorption than recycled plaster（R-P） without STPP. On the contrary, the water requirement and the setting time were decreased and shortened by STPP in R-SP, respectively. A dense structure was also possessed by R-SP which contributed to the high strength and low water absorption. The analysis shows that STPP is selectively chemisorbed on the（111） face of R-PS crystals, it inhibits the growth in c axis direction, resulting in the extending of setting time and the transformation of morphology, making the hardened R-PS crystals coarsened, which results in high W/P and low strength. Whereas the low W/P is made by both the rod-like crystals of low length-radius possessed by R-SP and the relatively high ζ-potential absolute value caused by –（PO_3Ca） on the surface of R-SP, leading to the complete development of crystals and their close overlapping, thus bringing about the increase of strength.展开更多

At the same milling time, R-P had the characteristics of high specific surface area, fine particle diameter and uneven size distribution compared with POP, so R-P possessed both good grindability and poor grading. The water absorption, dissolution rate and mass loss in dry-wet cycle of the hardened recycled gypsum(hardened RG) increased, while the water saturated strength and dry-wet cycle strength decreased significantly compared with the hardened virgin gypsum(hardened VG). Therefore, poor wettability could be seen in R-P. The analyses indicated that the changes of grindability and grading could be attributed to the reduction in hardness and the increase in the porosity of hardened RG and that the poor wettability of R-P was caused by the increase of large pores and the changes of microstructure of hardened RG.展开更多
