Low-temperature dehydration of gypsum single crystals
On the basis of the analysis of the electron spin resonance spectrum of the SO 3 − radical ion, it is established that the transformation of gypsum (CaSO 4 · 2H 2 O) into bassanite (CaSO 4 · 0.5H 2 O) with partial removal of water molecules occurs through the formation of an anhydrous metastable pha...
