Abstract: The gypsum has been limited in building field due to its poor water resistance. The modified flue gas desulfurization (FGD) building gypsum with well water resistance and low cost was fabricated with the FGD building gypsum and ordinary Portland cement as raw materials in this paper. The effect of cement content on physical properties, phase composition, and microstructure of hydrated samples was systematically investigated. Results show that with the increase of the ordinary Portland cement content, the content of AFt, CH, and C-S-H increases, which fill the pores, so that the water absorption decreases first and then increases, while the softening coefficient, contact angle, and hardness show an opposite trend. When the content of cement is 18% (mass fraction), the hydrated sample shows a well water resistance. This study provides a technical basis for the preparation of the FGD building gypsum and its products with well water resistance, low-cost, and environment-friendly, which also has an important significance to the popularization and application of the FGD gypsum.

Key words: flue gas desulfurization building gypsum, ordinary Portland cement, water resistance, contact angle
