Gypsum powder, inherently a fine-textured white powder, is composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate and forms one of the key ingredients in the manufacturing process of the gypsum board. Exhibit the stability in physical characteristics, this remarkable material carries significant strength, durability, and flexibility.
A hallmark trait of gypsum powder is its moisture-resistant attribute, which provides it with a unique ability to resist the occurrence of mold, mildew, and warping. These properties guarantee robustness and longevity to the final product i.e. the gypsum board. Also, gypsum powder maintains its dimensional stability even in extreme climate changes, making it a preferred choice for construction purposes.
Gypsum powder plays an instrumental role in the formation of gypsum board. Its ability to mix readily with water and the subsequent hardening properties makes it an ideal binder in the manufacture of gypsum board. It provides the gypsum board with required consistency, facilitates moldability, endows mechanical strength, and provides excellent fire resistance properties.
The qualities of soundproofing and thermal insulation are second to none with gypsum board, and all credit goes to the gypsum powder. Apart from this, the fact that gypsum board can be recycled, thereby making it an environmentally sustainable product, stems largely from the inherent properties of gypsum powder that forms its base.
The use of high-quality gypsum powder is paramount in ensuring superior productivity and outcome in the creation of gypsum boards. This is where SBM’s SCM Ultrafine Grinding Mill comes into the picture. The mill, having a new superfine powder (325-2500 mesh) production capacity, has been developed through the accumulation of years of experience in grinding mill production. This piece of equipment is a result of fusion between advanced Swedish machine manufacturing technology and sophisticated Chinese technologies.
The output size of the SCM Ultrafine Grinding Mill ranges from 325 to 3250 mesh, catering to the varied requirements of the industry. The mill has a tremendous capacity of 0.5-25TPH, capable of handling an input size of 0-20mm. Investing in such state-of-the-art equipment will ensure the derivation of superior quality gypsum powder that will in turn translate to the manufacture of high-quality, durable and reliable gypsum boards.
