JB-VERMIGYP

Vermiculite Gypsum Plaster Preparation Vermiculite is a micaceous mineral (hydrated silicates of Aluminium, Magnesium and Iron) which are insoluble in water and other organic solvents. It occurs as golden brown to greenish flakes. It is abundantly found in Andhra Pradesh, Tamilnadu, Karnataka and Rajasthan. Andhra Pradesh is the leading producer of Vermiculite in India. Vermiculite is mined as a rock & is crushed & graded prior to exfoliate. Vermiculite is exfoliated (heated at 870° C) before its final use. The bulk density of vermiculite in natural form is between 600-1050 Kg/m’ and after exfoliation 65-130 Kg/m’. It is used in buildingmaterial to make them acoustic and fire resistant. Vermiculite is also used as a packaging medium and for annealing of steel. In horticulture.it is used as a growing material.

Prepration

Vermiculite gypsum plaster is prepared by mixing of exfoliated vermiculite with a definite proportion of gypsum plaster. It is very versatile mineral because of its thermal stability. Due to longer setting time wastage is less as compared to others. Vermiculite gypsum plaster is clean to handle & is sterile due to high temperature treatment.

Advantages

Used for both interior and exterior building structures.

Improved coverage & workability

Long time durability

Light-weight

Better adhesion to a wide range of back-grounds

Excellent fire resistance

Sound acoustic

Non toxic & odourless

Applications

Make a 4-6 mm plaster points on the surface to be plastered & the maximum thickness of applied plaster should be in the range of 3-15 mm.

The level should be checked by marking the points parallel & right angles to each other

Then treat the background /surface with water to remove dirt & allow the surface to soak water

Add plaster in the water & mix it thoroughly by hands/ mechanical stirrer, making a homogeneous paste.

Now apply the plaster on the desired surface by holding plaster hawk in the left &trowel in your right hand.

Then use aluminum straight edge to remove the extra plaster covering the entire area & then allowing it to set.

Technical Steps

Always clean the tools properly with a brush after each application

Always use clean water & clean bucket avoiding any leftover in the pop paste.

Precautions

Always add gypsum vermiculite plaster to the water and not water to the powder.

Clean the bucket regularly before mixing new batch to avoid shortening of setting time & to avoid loss of plaster strength.

Clean the tools properly after each application results of the product used.

o avoid line marks & to get better

For ceilings it is most important that concrete slab should be clean, dry and free from mould oil.

It is always advisable to wet the wall & ceilings surface to achieve good workability.

Handling & Storage

Always back fold bag after taking out material to keep it free from moisture

Bags should be stored in a dry place free from water

As a thumb rule, first in first out stock management is advisable.
