What is "gypsum"?

Gypsum is a mineral widely used in various industries. It is produced by heating gypsum rock, which is then crushed into a fine powder and mixed with water to create a moldable paste. This paste hardens into a solid material, making it suitable for various applications. In construction, it is essential for creating plaster and drywall, providing smooth and durable surfaces for walls and ceilings. In agriculture, gypsum is used as a soil conditioner, enhancing soil structure and supporting plant growth by providing essential nutrients like calcium and sulfur. Additionally, gypsum is used in medicine for creating surgical and orthopedic casts that restrict movement and support fractured or injured bones during the healing process.
