Re: [papercreters] gypsum

That one missed me by a mile! All I could think of was a picture buried on one of my webpages of me wearing a tux  : )

Suit......................... bad joke. Just before sending you the message I was reading about the problems with the space station. Looking at pics of them doing spacewalks and repairs, my friend asked if I was looking for halloween costume. The conversation carried over to the post I was sending you, no harm intended only smiles.

  Thank you for the info on gypsum, it's what I thought but I wanted confirmation.

Peace Bob

If ground finely it may help with the fire resistance, as most minerals would. Definitely no harm in putting it in, better than landfill  : )

Suit?

Thanks Spaceman, just thinking about all the drywall seen in debris bin and wondering if I could save some landfill space, wasn't sure if it would help with fire retardant, insulation etc.

  Peace Bob     ..by the way I like the suit, Halloween costume or real.  lol

Hydrated gypsum like drywall is pretty much just bulk. To be useful it has to be fired to drive off the water, like lime. At that point it is great as plaster and concrete adjuncts.

A simple question that I can't find in archives (I haven't looked real   deep). Adding gypsum from old drywall any effects good or bad.  Peace Bob
