What is Gypsum Retarder?

Gypsum Retarder is a specialized admixture designed to control the setting time of gypsum-based products. By moderating the hydration process of calcium sulfate hemihydrate, it ensures a more manageable working time without compromising the final strength or durability of the material.

The use of Gypsum Retarder provides key benefits: extended open time, improved workability, and greater flexibility in applications ranging from plaster and joint compounds to gypsum boards and decorative elements. It helps avoid premature setting, reduces waste, and allows for smoother finishing and shaping.

For projects requiring precise application, complex molds, or large-scale plastering, Gypsum Retarder ensures reliable performance, consistent quality, and enhanced construction efficiency—making it an indispensable additive in gypsum-based systems.

Advantages

The linear change of setting time with the dosage is relatively gentle, which can make the gypsum mortar have higher surface strength, improve the construction performance of the gypsum mortar, and have little effect on the strength.
