In conjunction with water, a mixture can be used to prepare a sprayable slurry that hydrates to form a machinable plaster composition. The mixture includes from about 80% to about 98% by weight calcium sulfate hemihydrate, from about 1% to about 5% by weight adhesive binder for adhering said plaster mixture to a substrate and from about 0.001% to about 10% of a polysaccharide. The mixture is made into a slurry by the addition of from 10% to about 50 weight water based on the weight of the mixture.

Sprayable machinable media

A mixture is used in conjunction with water is used for preparing a slurry that hydrates to form an exterior gypsum cement. The mixture includes 30-70% by weight hydraulic cement, 30-70% by weight calcined gypsum and 0.05-2.5% polycarboxylate. When the mixture is added to water less than 40 weight % based on the weight of the mixture, a slurry is formed that expands very little while it cures.

High molecular weight additives for calcined gypsum and cementitious compositions

A composition is disclosed for a mixture to be used in conjunction with water for preparing a slurry that hydrates to form a high strength flooring compound. The mixture includes from about 50% to about 98% by weight calcium sulfate hemihydrate, having at least 25% of the calcium sulfate hemihydrate in the beta-calcined form. A polycarboxylate dispersant is included in the mixture in amounts from about 0.2% to about 10% by weight. The mixture also includes 0.05&#x2013;50% by weight enhancing component. When combined with recommended amounts of water, a slurry is formed that is useful as a flooring composition.
