Four kids of powder admixtures(A, B, C, D) based on anhydrite were manufactured by mixing at a fixed rate of II-anhydrite, fly ash and active silica as an industrial by-product. Fluidity properties of cement paste such as mini-slump, apparent viscosity with elapsed time, as well as setting time of cement pastes of these admixtures substituted up to 11wt% of cement were compared to those of cement paste(SS) substisuted by marketed high-strength powder admixture(S). Among these powder admixtures, the fluidity of cement pastes(PA, PC) substituted by A and C powder admixtures manufactured from II-anhydrite and fly ash had an excellent property than that of cement paste substituted by marketed powder admixture and also a good fluidity-retention effect with elapsed time by adding of superplasticizer. The setting time of cement paste substituted by powder admixtures based on anhydrite slightly retarded than that of cement paste substituted by marketed powder admixture.

The purpose of this study evaluates possibilities of waste phosphogypsum into concrete by steam curing admixture. The waste phosphogypsums were classified into 4 forms(Dihydrate, $\beta-Hemihydrate$, III-Anhydrite and II-Anhydrite) which were changed to in low temperature of calcination. Also, various admixtures were made of waste phosphogypsum(PG) and pozollanic fine powderers (Fly-ash, Blast Furnace Slag), and the basic properties of the cement mortars incorporating with these admixtures were examined and analyzed under a verity of experimental conditions. As a result, III-Anhydrite, these is similar to II-Anhydrite from compressive strength and are great in the effect of strength improvement. also, it was proved that specimens made on type III-Anhydrite of waste phosphogypsum and blast furnace slag increased on the compressive strength of cement mortar. Therefore, III-Anhydrite phosphogypsum calcined at lower temperature could be used as steam curing admixture for concrete 2th production.

As II-anhydrite reacts with C3A(aluminate), C4AF(ferrite) at initial hydration of cement and assists the hydrolysis of C3S(calcium silicate), the production rate of ettringite(3C3A.3CaSO4.32H2O) and C-S-H gel was acclerated. It was known that compressive strength of cement concrete improved due to the effect of II-anhydrite. For the checking these effects of II-anhydrite, the fluidity and compressive strength of cementmortar admixed with II-anhydrite and pozollanic fine powders were investigated. By means of SEM analysis, the surface structure of mortar with the condition of steam curing at curing days=28 was investigated. As a result of this experiment, it was examined that II-anhydrite had an increase on the fluidity of cementpaste and compressive strength of mortar.

This paper presents the research results performed to develope the shrinkage-free grout with high early strength. Alumina cement and anhydrite were utilized as the expensive tool to gain the shrinkage-free grout. The compressive strength, length change, and ettringite formation of the grout were investigated with compressive test, length change test, and X-ray diffraction. The more anhydrite was added into the grout, the larger the early expansion of the grout. In addition, the more anhydrite formated the more ettringite. From this study, It was conformed that the grout mixture with shrinkage-free property and high early strength is the mixture with the ratio of alumina cement and anhydrite of 40:60 by weight.

The manufacture property of anhydrous calcium sulfate (anhydrite Ⅱ) from flue gas desulfurization (FGD) gypsum discharged from domestic thermoelectric power plants to apply as an auxiliary material of cement and concrete by high temperature treatment were investigated. The FGD gypsum was completely converted to anhydrite Ⅱ at the temperature of 700$^{\circ}C$ and the retention time of 1 hr. In the phase transformation process, particle size was also changed. The chemical composition, particle size and heat property of anhydrite Ⅱ made from the FGD gypsum were similar to them of natural gypsum. In the leaching test of sulfate ion (SO$_4^{2-}$) at the temperature of 90$^{\circ}C$ and the retention time of 1 hr, the amount of leached SO$_4^{2-}$ for the anhydrite Ⅱ that was sintered at 700$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr was about 50 wt.% based on that of natural gypsum. In addition, the amount of leached SO$_4^{2-}$ for the anhydrite Ⅱ by adding the slaked lime of 3 wt.% decreased about 70 wt.% comparing with that of natural gypsum. In the application test, the compressive strength of cement and concrete manufactured by using the anhydrite Ⅱ as an auxiliary material were similar or superior compared with them of cement and concrete done by natural gypsum as an auxiliary material.

In order to investigate the reaction in the system of anhydrite II-blast furnace slag, the paste hydration which made up with a liquid/solid ratio of 0.45 for 1, 3, 7, 14, 28days by the addition of accelerators to 10~30wt.% slag with natural gypsum calcined for 1hour at 500/$700^{\circ}C$ was studied by combined water determination, XRD, DTA, DSC and SEM. As a result of this experiment, it was found that hydration rate was faster in the system calcined at 50$0^{\circ}C$. Therefore the anhydrite was converted to calcium sulfate dihydrate in the hydration for 1day but the slag was not almost reacted. For the gypsum calcined at $700^{\circ}C$, the hydraton rate in the system of K2SO4 addition was faster than others in the earier period, but the activated effect of the system of Al2(SO4)3 addition was regarded as the highest over 3days. As the amount of slag was increased, they dydration rate was delayed and ettringite was observed in the case of K2SO4 system. However both Al2(SO4)3 and AlK(SO4)2 systems showed calcium sulfate dhydrate only as hydrated products.

Effects of the dosage change, from 0 to 2.0 wt% based on cement weight, of naphthalenic (NSF) and polycarboxylic(NT-2) superplasticizers, on the fluidity of cement paste substituted by 10 wt% II-anhydrite and fly ash respectively as well as II-anhydrite and fly ash itself were investigated. Dispersion properties between particles in suspension were investigated by zeta potential test. Initial fluidity and slump loss in the paste system were observed through mini-slump and apparent viscosity changes with elapsed time. Zeta potential on the particle surface was a tendency to increase according to increasing of NSF dosage. Especially, zeta potential of fly ash has the highest value among all particles equivalent to NSF dosage. In the fluidity of cement paste substituted by inorganic particles, the specimen with substitution of 10 wt% II-anhydrite and fly ash for cement was more effective than cement itself to improve initial fluidity and retain stable fluidity of cement paste. In addition, effect of NT-2 and NSF to improve the fluidity of cement paste, addition of 1.0 wt% NT-2 was more effective than 1.5wt% NSF.

High volume slag concrete is attracting new attention and are thought to have promising potential for industrial applications, partly due to the climate debate, but especially due to their very low heat of hydration and their good durability in chemically aggressive environments. However, High volume slag concretes tend to have slower strength development especially. In this study, the effect of anhydrite ($CaSO_4$) on the mechanical and durability performance of high volume slag concrete were investigated. The main variables were anhydrite contents (0, 4, 6, 8, 10%). Test results show that 4~8% anhydrite concrete have improved engineering properties (hydration, compressive strength, shrinkage, creep, carbonation) as control concrete at early ages.

This study investigated the compressive strength, flexural strength, setting time, and rebound when blast furnace slag and anhydrite, which are widely used mineral admixtures for concrete, are applied to shotcrete. When Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) was replaced at a rate of 10% with blast furnace slag and anhydrite, the initial and final setting time requirements were all satisfied. However, when OPC was replaced at a rate of 20%, final setting was delayed, revealing that this mixture was not suitable for shotcrete. Compressive strength test results showed that the mixture with 10% OPC replacement rate met the target strength at 1 day and 28 days for permanent tunnel support usage. Particularly, the mixture designed with OPC replacement by blast furnace slag and anhydrite at rates of 5% showed the highest compressive strength. Rebound measurements revealed that this mixture exhibited excellent performance with 23% reduction in the rebound compared to the shotcrete that was produced with only OPC binder.

Under concentrational paste and dilute suspension systems, we have been tested the effects in the dosage of two superplasticizers [naphtalenic(NSF) and polycarboxylic(NT-2)] which has been varied from 0 to 2.0 wt%, in both one case of cement Ⅱ-anhydrite and fly ash itself and the other case that cement has been substituted 10wt% to Ⅱ-anhydrite and fly ash. The result of tested zeta potential tells that zeta potential values increase in addition to increasing of the NSF dosage. And it's effect was high in case of fly ash. We has confirmed the 10wt% substitution of Ⅱ -anhydrite and fly ash would be more effective than the cement itself in initial fluidity and stable fluidity. And in case of NT-2 and NSF, addition of 1.0wt% NT-2 improved the fluidity of paste cement more than that for NSF.
