About Gypsum
Gypsum is a hydrated calcium sulfate mineral primarily used in construction materials, particularly drywall and plaster production, which accounts for over 70% of global demand. Industrial applications include cement manufacturing, soil amendment, and chemical production. International trade involves crude gypsum, calcined gypsum (plaster of Paris), and finished wallboard products. Major producing regions include China, Iran, India, Canada, and the United States, with substantial exports from Thailand and Mexico. Buyers should verify moisture content and purity levels, as these directly affect processing efficiency and product quality; specifications typically require calcium sulfate dihydrate content above 80% and moisture below 8% for optimal calcination performance.
