Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate 500gm

Original price was: KSh700.00.Current price is: KSh500.00.

Calcium sulfate dihydrate, chemically represented as CaSO4·2H2O, appears as a fine, white to off-white powder. It is odorless and typically occurs as a crystalline solid. In its natural form, it is known as gypsum, which can be found in various geological formations. When heated, gypsum loses its water of crystallization, transforming into calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CaSO4·0.5H2O), commonly known as plaster of Paris, which has important applications in construction and art.
