Crystal structures of cementitious compounds - Part 3: Calcium sulfates

Summary, in English

The crystal structures of the following calcium sulfate phases are reviewed: CaSO4.2H(2)O (C (S) over barH(0.5), monoclinic); CaSO4.0.6H(2)O (C (S) over barH(0.6), pseudotrigonal, monoclinic); CaSO4.0.5H(2)O (C (S) over barH(0.5), monoclinic); CaSO4 (111, CS, pseudohexagonal, orthorhombic), CaSO4 (II, CS, orthorhombic). Drawings of the atomic structures, crystal data and literature references are included. The relationships between crystal structure and properties of the materials are discussed.
