• Sustainable: It is a natural mineral that is abundant and easy to mine, making it a sustainable building material.
• Cost Effective: It is a reasonably priced material with outstanding value. It is readily available, easy to transport, and simple to work with.

Properties:

• Hardness: Gypsum powder has a Mohs hardness of 2, which means it is a relatively soft material.
• Solubility: It is soluble in water, which makes it easy to mix with other materials.
• Density: Gypsum powder has a density of 2.3 grams per cubic centimeter, which means it is a lightweight material.
• Color: It is a white or grayish-white color.

The Environmental Impact of Gypsum Production

The production of gypsum powder can have a significant environmental impact. Gypsum mining and processing have been linking to habitat loss, water pollution, and soil erosion. However, there are several measures that can be taken to minimize the environmental impact of gypsum production, such as using recycled gypsum and implementing sustainable mining practices.
