Scope
GB/T 21371-2019 is the English-translated version of 用于水泥中的工业副产石膏.
GB/T 21371-2019 covers industrial by-product gypsum used in cement, the calcium sulfate by-products discharged from industrial manufacturing that are also called chemical or synthetic gypsum.
It gives the terms and definitions, technical requirements, test methods, judgment rules, transportation and storage, and applies to the acceptance and use of such gypsum for adjusting the setting time of cement.
Radioactivity is checked to GB 6566, and the effect on cement is measured by comparing a contrast cement made with natural gypsum against a test cement in which 30 % to 100 % of that gypsum is replaced: consistency, setting time and soundness to GB/T 1346, mortar fluidity to GB/T 2419, mortar strength to GB/T 17671 and compatibility with water-reducing agents to JC/T 1083.
It replaces GB/T 21371-2008, was issued on 18 October 2019 and has applied since 1 September 2020.

3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this Document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 By-product gypsum
The general term for by-products with calcium sulfate as the main component that are discharged from industrial manufacturing.
NOTE 1: Also known as chemical gypsum, synthetic gypsum.
5 Test Methods
5.3 Radioactive material limits
It shall be tested according to GB 6566.
5.4 Influence of industrial by-product gypsum on cement properties
5.4.1 Preparation of contrast cement
It is the P·I Portland cement, which is prepared by the Category-G and Class-2 above (including Class-2) gypsum specified in GB/T 5483, with SO3 content of 2.0%~2.5%, 80µm sieve residue of less than 4%, and specific surface area of 350m²/kg±10m²/kg.
5.4.2 Preparation of test cement
It is P·I Portland cement that is prepared by using Portland cement clinker for preparing contrast cement and by replacing natural gypsum with 30%~100% of the assessed industrial by-product gypsum. During the preparation, the 80µm sieve residue of the cement shall be controlled to less than 4%, the specific surface area shall be within the range of 350m²/kg ± 10m²/kg, and the difference between the SO3 content and the contrast cement SO3 content shall be within 0.2%.
5.4.3 Standard consistency water consumption, setting time and stability of cement
It shall be tested according to GB/T 1346.
5.4.4 Fluidity of cement mortar
The preparation of cement mortar is carried out according to GB/T 17671; and the fluidity test operation of cement mortar is carried out according to GB/T 2419.
5.4.5 Strength of cement mortar
It shall be tested according to GB/T 17671.
5.4.6 Compatibility of cement and water-reducing agent
It shall be tested according to JC/T 1083.
6 Judgment Rules
When any one of 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6 does not meet the requirements of this Standard, it cannot be used in the manufacturing of cement. […]
