Hydrated Lime

Hydrated Lime

At Gypsona, it is not engineering reliability and performance and purity into each batch of lime that we do; it is our custom. Whether it’s solid AAC blocks, greener flyash bricks or efficient industrial process, our hydrated lime is a reliable strength, durability and innovation base.

What Are Hydrated Lime?

Calcium Hydroxide [Ca(OH)₂] also known as as hydrated Lime is a fine dry powder formed when quicklime is acted upon by water. It is essential in such a way that:

  •  Construction and building material manufacturing
  •  Water treatment and pH control
  •  Environmental protection
  •  Agriculture and soil stabilization
  •  Chemical synthesis

Lime for AAC Blocks Manufacturing

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks are famous for their lightweight, insulator, and load bearing capabilities. The secret of superior features? High-quality hydrated lime.

What are the benefits of Gypsona’s Hydrated Lime in AAC?

  • Increased compressive strength
  • Enhanced workability of the slurry
  • The equal structure of pores for improved insulation
  • Increased reaction to aluminum powder to better optimize gas formation

Example:
The move from Gypsona’s 90% Ca(OH)₂ to lime has resulted in 25% less curing time and 40% greater consistency in block density in industrial tests.

Lime for Flyash Bricks Manufacturing

Flyash bricks are sustainable, energy-efficient alternatives to traditional clay bricks—and hydrated lime is the key ingredient.

Why Our Lime Works Best for Flyash Bricks:
  • •  Acts as an activator for the pozzolanic reaction
  • •  Improves binding strength between particles
  • •  Increases durability and resistance to water
  • •  Enhances surface smoothness of bricks

Comparative Strength Test (Mpa):

Brick Type Compressive Strength Water Absorption
Without Lime 6.0 16%
With Gypsona Lime 9.2 12%
