Comprehensive Testing for Western Gypsum Plaster as per IS 2547 Part 1

Our Gypsum Testing Capabilities

We conduct a wide range of tests on gypsum plaster to assess both its chemical composition and physical properties, helping clients ensure that their materials meet industry specifications and performance criteria.

Chemical Testing

We analyze critical components such as:

• Sulfur Trioxide (SO₃)

• Calcium Oxide (CaO)

• Magnesium Oxide (MgO)

• Sodium Oxide (Na₂O)

• Free Lime

These tests help determine the suitability of the plaster for construction purposes and adherence to IS 2547 standards.

Physical Properties Testing

Our physical testing suite includes:

• Setting Time: To measure how quickly the plaster sets under specific conditions.

• Flexural/Transverse Strength: To assess the material's resistance to bending forces.

• Residue on 90 Micron Sieve: To evaluate the fineness of the plaster.

• Normal Consistency: To determine the water requirement for workable consistency.

• Compressive Strength: Tested at both 1-day and 7-day intervals to gauge the plaster’s strength over time.

• Loose Bulk Density: To measure the weight of the material per unit volume in its loose state.

Sample Requirements

For comprehensive analysis, we require a 25 KG bag of gypsum plaster to ensure accurate testing across all parameters.
