Properties of gypsum composites with shavings. Issue 2 (September 2019) - Regulska, Katarzyna
Abstract: Gypsum composites have been gaining increasing interest within last decades. Nowadays, the environment-supporting options are regaining more advocates. Among other solutions, organic fillers are of interest. The physical and mechanical properties of gypsum composites with shavings were tested and are described in the paper. The influence of gypsum mixture composition, the water/gypsum ratio and appropriate mineralization on the composite properties were examined. Present study focuses on the durability, thermal properties, natural radioactivity and susceptibility to biological corrosion of gypsum composites with shavings.
