describe the setting reaction of a gypsum stone
when hemihydrate mixes with H2O a suspension is formed, the hemihydrate dissolves until it forms a saturated solution. Saturated hemihydrate solution ppts out dihydrate since the solution is supersaturated in dihydrate. Since the solution is then not saturated in hemihydrate it continues to dissolve. Dissolution of hemihydrate and pptation of dihydrate contitinues until no more dihydrate pptates out of solution

retarders -decrease rate of chemical rxn and lengthen working time(borax, colloidal systems(ie blood, saliva, agar), NaCl(28%), glue, gelatin, potassium citrate(K3C6H5O7))

temp and humidity - EXACT OPPOSITE OF ALGINATE EFFECTS increased water temp >50C retards set time but >100C no rxn at all

Rate and duration of spatulation - longer adn faster spatulation shortens set time because gypsum crystals formed are broken up and form satellite nucleis of crystallization
