Abstract: Calcium sulfate alpha hemihydrate and foundry sand are milled to cement fineness and form a hydraulic binder, as a mixture with both high early setting strength and excellent water resistance. The composition relies upon a sulfate activation of the foundry sand rather than an alkali activation thereof.
