Anpak TD

Anpak TD is a hemihydrate plaster (CaSO4x1/2 H2O) produced from naturally occurring gypsum mineral. It is off-white in colour.

This product is used in the ceramics tableware industry to produce working moulds for the jiggering and jollying when a long mould life and high mechanical properties are required.

Anpak TD is particulary adapted to cast jiggering and jollying moulds for large pieces.

Technical data

Chemical Properties
Chemical Composition	CaSO4x1/2 H2O
Chemical Name	Hemihydrate plaster

Mechanical Properties
Dry compressive strength (Mpa)	19
Flexural Strength (MPa)	5
Hardness Shore D	73

Setting Parameters
Initial setting time (minutes)	10 - 20
Linear Expansion (%)	0.24
Vicat Ring Fluidity (cm)	14 - 19

Physical Properties
Particle Size Distribution (mesh size and % weight retained)	Sieve - weight retained +200μm = max 0.04%

Plaster to Water Ratio
Plaster to water mix ratio (by weight)	1.80 :1
Plaster to Water Ratio (by weight)	1.80:1
Water to plaster ratio ( by weight)	55.6%

The recommended plaster to water ratio is between 1.65:1 and 1.80:1, with a mixing time of approx. 2 to 4 minutes, depending on batch size and plaster shop process. Water and Plaster must be measured carefully to ensure constant performances. The precise consistency to use will need to be adjusted to suit the individual application. Changes to plaster to water ratio will influence product performance particularly setting time, strength and permeability.
