Background. Dental plaster, white orthodontic gypsum, and construction gypsum have β-hemihydrate particles. Setting time is an essential property of dental gypsum, which can affect the strength of the material. This research aimed to compare construction gypsum, dental plaster, and white orthodontic gypsum’s initial and final setting times. Methods. Three groups were included in this experimental laboratory study: construction gypsum (A), dental plaster (B), and white orthodontic gypsum (C). Each group consisted of 10 samples. Gypsum manipulation consisted of using 120 gr of powder and 60 mL of water. Gypsum powder and water were mixed using a gypsum mixer at 120 rpm. A homogeneous mixture was poured into a mold, and the setting time was measured using a Gillmore needle, according to ASTM C266-03. The initial setting time test was measured using 113.4 grams and a 2.12-mm needle. The final setting time was measured using 453.6 grams and a 1.06-mm needle. This test was repeated until the needle failed to penetrate the gypsum’s surface. All the data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey tests using SPSS 23. Results. The average initial setting time for groups A, B, and C were 10.39±1.19, 16.17±1.40, and 24.46±1.51, respectively. The average final setting time for groups A, B, and C were 15.97±0.79, 24.31±0.88) and 33.37±0.66, respectively. One-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey tests showed significant differences in the initial and final setting times between the three groups (P<0.05). Conclusion. There were differences in setting time between dental plaster, white orthodontic gypsum, and construction gypsum. The construction gypsum’s setting time is suitable as a type II dental gypsum, according to ADA No.25.

Calcium Sulfate Hemihydrate

ABSTRACT Background The surgeon may implant calcium sulfate pellets (aka gypsum) as a resorbable antimicrobial vehicle at the surgical site in severe cases of osteomyelitis. Gypsum setting times with or without antibiotic additives are found scattered throughout the literature, but often factors known to alter setting time are either not disclosed or not held constant between experiments. To our knowledge, no prior study compares the setting time of calcium sulfate plaster mixed with the four commonly used antibiotics under constant conditions as presented here. Purpose To compare the setting times of calcium sulfate hemihydrate mixtures containing vancomycin, cefazolin, tobramycin, or amphotericin B. Materials and methods Groups consisted of samples comprised of 6.3 gm calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CSH) mixed with approximately 1/4th a vial of lyophilized antimicrobial (vancomycin, cefazolin, tobramycin or amphotericin B) with CSH powder to normal saline ratio of 1.7 gm/ml and mixed for 30 seconds at controlled speed and humidity. Each sample initial setting time (Ti) and final setting time (Tf) were established by Gillmore needles method according to ASTM standard C266- 08 apparatus specifications. Results Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance by ranks revealed that antibiotic type affected the initial and final setting times of gypsum (p < 0.05). Post hoc analysis using Dunn's multiple comparisons indicated that there was no difference between control Ti (7.2 ± 1.1 min) and that of vancomycin or cefazolin group (9.8 ± 1.7 or 14.2 ± 1.3 min, respectively, p > 0.05), but the Ti of the tobramycin and amphotericin B groups (31.8 ± 5.7 and 140.4 ± 18.0 min) differed from the control Ti (p < 0.05). Likewise, there was no difference of control Tf (p > 0.05, 12.2 ± 1.1 min) when compared to vancomycin or cefazolin groups (22.2 ± 6.9 or 25.7 ± 4.1 min), but that the Tf of tobramycin and amphotericin B groups (76.3 ± 5.9 and 200.0 ± 21.1 min) each differed from the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion This experiment is aimed to help surgeons plan when they should begin preparing their calcium sulfate antibiotic beads during surgery. As a general guideline, allow 15 minutes to set when adding a 1 gm vial of vancomycin or cefazolin, 30 minutes for adding a 1.2 gm vial tobramycin, and 2.5 hours for adding a 50 mg vial of amphotericin B.

Through the test of citric acid of cement paste, setting time and compression strength changes, and combined with XRD, SEM, discusses the influence of citric acid on cement hydration process. The results show that: citric acid can effectively increase the initial cement fluidity, when the content is exceed to 0.1%, the 60 min flow loss of increased gradually. Citric acid retarding effect increases with dosage, but there is a critical dosage, when the dosage is less than 0.1%, the initial setting time and final setting time increased slowly; When the dosage more than 0.1%, the initial setting time increased slowly, but the final setting time increases rapidly; With the increase in citric acid dosage, AFt diffraction peaks increases, while the CH peak decreases, indicating that the citric acid accelerated the initial hydration of C3A, while inhibiting C3S hydration and promoting AFt generation

This paper introduces a new-type alkali-free and chlorine-free high performance liquid accelerated admixture. The accelerated agent is mainly composed of the following components: fluoride magnesium aluminum silicate is main accelerator, alcohol amine polymer is activator, and amide polymer is stabilizer. When dosage of the admixture is greater than 4%, the cement initial setting time is less than 5 min, the final setting time is less than 10 min, and the 28 day compressive strength ratio of mortar is more than 100%. The mechanism is the accelerating of agent on hydration of C3A and C3S. There are large hydration calcium flu silicate (11CaO·4SiO2·CaF2) and hydration calcium aluminates at the later stage of hydration.

Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the compressive strength and setting time of MTA and Portland cement (PC) associated with bismuth oxide (BO), zirconium oxide (ZO), calcium tungstate (CT), and strontium carbonate (SC). Methods. For the compressive strength test, specimens were evaluated in an EMIC DL 2000 apparatus at 0.5 mm/min speed. For evaluation of setting time, each material was analyzed using Gilmore-type needles. The statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA and the Tukey tests, at 5% significance. Results. After 24 hours, the highest values were found for PC and PC + ZO. At 21 days, PC + BO showed the lowest compressive strength among all the groups. The initial setting time was greater for PC. The final setting time was greater for PC and PC + CT, and MTA had the lowest among the evaluated materials (P<0.05). Conclusion. The results showed that all radiopacifying agents tested may potentially be used in association with PC to replace BO.

This paper deals with the setting time and pozzolanic activity of cement when ultra fine natural steatite powder (UFNSP) is used as replacement for cement. Initial setting time, final setting time, and mortar cube strength were studied, due to the replacement of ultra fine natural steatite powder with cement at 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% by mass of cement. The setting time of fresh cement-binder paste and compressive strength of mortar cubes are observed. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were applied to investigate the microstructural behaviour and chemical element distribution inside cement-binder matrix. Results indicate that the length of dormant period is shortened. The replacement of ultra fine natural steatite powder with cement reduces initial setting time, and final setting time and increases mortar cube compressive strength.

Approximately 2.78 Mt of coal fly ash is produced in the Philippines, with a low utilization rate. Using fly ash-based geopolymer for construction will lessen the load sent to landfills and will result in lower GHG emissions compared to OPC. It is necessary to characterize the fly ash and optimize the geopolymer components to determine if it can replace OPC for in situ applications. The activator-to-precursor ratio, the water-to-solids ratio, and the sodium hydroxide-to-sodium silicate ratio were optimized using a randomized I-optimal design from the experimental results of 21 runs with five replicates, for a total of 105 specimens of 50 mm × 50 mm × 50 mm paste cubes. The engineering properties chosen as the optimization responses were the unconfined compressive strength (UCS), the initial setting time, and the final setting time. The samples were also ambient-cured with the outdoor temperature ranging from 30 °C to 35 °C and relative humidity of 50% ± 10% to simulate the on-site environment. Runs with high unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and short setting times were observed to have a low water-to-solids (W/S) ratio. All runs with a UCS greater than 20 MPa had a W/S ratio of 0.2, and the runs with the lowest UCS had a W/S of 0.4. The initial setting time for design mixes with a W/S ratio of 0.2 ranged from 8 to 105 min. Meanwhile, five out of seven design mixes with a W/S ratio of 0.4 took longer than 1440 min to set. Specimens with an alkali activator ratio (NaOH/WG) of 0.5 (1:2) and 0.4 (1:2.5) also had significantly lower setting times than those with an alkali activator ratio of 1. The RSM model was verified through confirmatory tests. The results of the confirmatory tests are agreeable, with deviations from the expected UCS ranging from 0 to 38.12%. The generated model is a reliable reference to estimate the UCS and setting time of low-calcium FA geopolymer paste for in situ applications.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of phosphogypsum on the properties of both cement pastes and mortars. Normal Portland cement CEM Ι 32,5N, Limestone Blended cement CEM ΙΙ B-L32,5N, and Slag cement CEM ΙΙ A-S32,5N were used. These cements were partially substituted by 0,2,4,6,8,10,and 15% of phosphogypsum. The test program was divided to two stages. In the first stage, tests were conducted according to BSEN 196, namely setting times (initial and final), soundness, and compressive strength (at ages 7 and 28 days). In the second stage, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were conducted on selected mixes from first stage. The results show that the three types of cements with the various replacement percentages of phosphogypsum met the limit of initial setting time, as well as, provided soundness of 2 mm. Also, in terms of compressive strength, it was proven, that it is possible to partially replace the three tested types of cements by phosphogypsum by up to 8%and 15% with regard to cement/sand ratio of (1:3) and (1:2) respectively.

It is studied the influence of triethanolamine (TEA), diethylenetriamine (DEA), Triisopropanolamine (TIPA), aminoethyl ethanolamine (AE), and polyvinyl alcohol ammonium phosphate (PAAP) at different dosages on the properties of fresh and hardened cement pastes and mortars prepared by Portland cement, including standard consistency water, setting time, the cement paste fluidity, and compressive and flexural strength. It is showed that the high polarity alcohol amine molecules exhibit strong chemical interactions with cement matrix, which are reflected in modified macroscopic properties of the cement system. All alcohol amine admixtures increased the standard consistency water and decreased cement paste fluidity of Portland cement. TEA significantly shortened the initial setting time and final setting time of Portland cement. On the other hand, TIPA, DEA, AE and PAAP extended the initial setting time of cement but shortened the cement final setting time. All alcohol amine admixtures except TIPA at 0.2 and 0.5 dosage increased the compressive and flexural strength of the Portland cement mortars at 3 days. Especially when the dosage of PAAP is 1, the compressive strength of the Portland cement mortars at 3 days is increased 10.5MPa. All alcohol amine admixtures except AE at 0.2 and 0.5 dosage increase the compressive and flexural strength of the Portland cement mortars at 28 days, Especially when the dosage of TIPA is 1, the compressive strength of the Portland cement mortars at 28 days is increased 8.8MPa.

Abstract This study aimed to assess the physicochemical properties of a repair material in the Brazilian market, BioMTA, in comparison to other two materials currently in use (Biodentine and MTA Angelus). The initial setting time was evaluated using Gillmore needle. The pH was measured with a pH-meter after 24 h, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days. The radiopacity was determined using the equivalence in millimeters of aluminum (mm Al) from digitized occlusal radiographs. Solubility was determined after immersion in water for 7 days. The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (a=0.05). The BioMTA initial setting time (5.2 min) was lower than the other materials (p<0.05). All materials showed an alkaline pH at 21 days. At 24 h, BioMTA was the most alkaline material (p<0.05); and at 3, 7, 14 and 21 days there was no difference between BioMTA and Biodentine (p>0.05), both being more alkaline than MTA Angelus (p<0.05). The radiopacity of BioMTA (4.2 mm Al) was significantly higher compared to Biodentine (p<0.05) and lower than MTA Angelus (p<0.05). The solubility of the materials was -4.2%, -1.6% and 4.1% for BioMTA, MTA Angelus and Biodentine, respectively, with a significant difference between them (p<0.05). Therefore, it can be concluded that BioMTA displayed a shorter setting time, an alkaline pH, a higher radiopacity, and a gain in mass.

Initial Setting

The effects of triethanolamine on the compressive strength and setting time of fly ash cementitious materials, slag cementitious materials, and limestone cementitious materials were investigated. The results show that the dosage of 0.04% of triethanolamine can significantly improve the 3d, 7d and 28d compressive strength of fly ash cementitious materials. It possesses less impact on the setting time. The dosage of 0.04% of triethanolamine can significantly improve the 3d and 7d compressive strength of slag cementitious materials while the effect of late strength is not obvious. It extends the initial setting time and the final setting time is not changed, which has retarding effect. The results of hydration heat and XRD show that triethanolamine extends the induction period of cement hydration, and gypsum is exhausted in advance during the hydration process. Triethanolamine promotes the transformation of AFt to AFm and there is no effect on the type of hydration products.
