Abstract
Abstract A process for the manufacture of a gypsum board wherein Alpha type hemihydrate gypsum by-produced in the wet process of phosphoric acid manufacturing is ground and mixed with water and a metal ion of iron or aluminum to form an aqueous slurry containing said gypsum and said slurry is enclosed between two sheets of board paper while maintaining the pH value of said slurry at 4 to 7, thereby said slurry sets to form said gypsum board.
