A process for making calcined gypsum in slurry or powder form. The process includes adding at least two types of crystal modifiers to the slurry. The first crystal modifier is to control crystal morphology of the calcined gypsum (such as succinic and/or malic acid). The second crystal modifier is to prevent or retard setting to control set time (such as tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP)) to form a water stable product. An accelerator is typically added at the site of use for specific applications such as setting type joint compound, media casting, exterior/interior coating, and sprayable fireproofing. A composition made by the process and a kit for using the composition are also disclosed.

We claim: 1. A process of manufacturing a stable product comprising α-calcium sulfate hemihydrate consisting essentially of the steps of: mixing calcium sulfate dihydrate, water and at least one first crystal modifier, to control particle morphology, to form a mixture, the at least one first crystal modifier selected from at least one member of the group consisting of maleic acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, monosodium gluconate, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid or sodium salt thereof, and aspartic acid; calcining the mixture in a reactor at conditions sufficient to form a calcined slurry comprising water and alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate; adding to the calcined slurry at least one second crystal modifier as a set preventer or set retarder, when the calcination is essentially complete and the slurry contains at least a majority of the water from the reactor, to form the stable product, the at least one second crystal modifier selected from at least one member of the group consisting of citric acid, tartaric acid, polyacrylic acid, aspartic acid; monosodium gluconate, tri-polyphosphate, gelatin, organic polyphosphonic compound, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid or sodium salt thereof, diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid, tetra-sodium pyrophosphate, and sodium polyacrylate, wherein the stable product is a ready-mixed slurry composition comprising the calcined slurry and the at least one second crystal modifier as the set preventer or set retarder, and packaging the stable product to produce packages of the stable ready mix slurry product, wherein there is an absence of drying before said adding to the calcined slurry at least one second crystal modifier, wherein there is an absence of filtering before said adding to the calcined slurry at least one second crystal modifier, wherein there is an absence of drying before said packaging, and wherein there is an absence of filtering before said packaging. 2. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one first crystal modifier is added to the calcium sulfate dihydrate and water before said step of calcining. 3. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one first crystal modifier is mixed with the calcined slurry in the reactor during the step of calcining, but prior to completion of the calcination. 4. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier is selected from at least one member of the group consisting of citric acid, tartaric acid, aspartic acid; monosodium gluconate, tri-polyphosphate, gelatin, organic polyphosphonic compound, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid or sodium salt thereof, diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid, and tetra-sodium pyrophosphate; wherein adding the at least one second crystal modifier to the calcined slurry produces a mixture consisting of said water of the calcined slurry, said alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate of the calcined slurry, said at least one first crystal modifier, and said at least one second crystal modifier. 5. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier is mixed with the calcined slurry in the reactor. 6. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier is mixed with the calcined slurry downstream of the reactor. 7. The process of claim 1, wherein the weight ratio of water to calcined gypsum downstream of the reactor is from about 0.15 to about 0.5, and wherein the composition has a viscosity of from about 5,000 centipoise to about 48,000 centipoise, and said composition forms an interlocking matrix of set gypsum when mixed with an activator for the reaction of calcium sulfate hemihydrate with water to form set gypsum. 8. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one first crystal modifier comprises succinic acid. 9. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one first crystal modifier comprises maleic acid. 10. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one first crystal modifier comprises potassium sulfate. 11. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier is selected from the group consisting of tetrasodium pyrophosphate and citric acid. 12. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier comprises tetrasodium pyrophosphate. 13. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier comprises tetrasodium pyrophosphate and citric acid. 14. The process of claim 1, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier comprises tetrasodium pyrophosphate and citric acid in a ratio of tetrasodium pyrophosphate to citric acid is 4:1. 15. The process of claim 1, wherein the stable product has a shelf life of at least 12 months, wherein the at least one second crystal modifier is selected from at least one member of the group consisting of citric acid, tartaric acid, aspartic acid; monosodium gluconate, tri-polyphosphate, gelatin, organic polyphosphonic compound, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid or sodium salt thereof, diethylene triamine penta-acetic acid, and tetra-sodium pyrophosphate; wherein adding the at least one second crystal modifier to the calcined slurry produces a mixture consisting of said water of the calcined slurry, said alpha-calcium sulfate hemihydrate of the calcined slurry, said at least one first crystal modifier, and said at least one second crystal modifier. 16. The process of claim 1, further including adding an accelerator to the stable product to form a setting slurry product. 17. The process of claim 16, wherein the setting slurry product is flowable for at least 0.25 hours after being mixed with an activator. 18. The process of claim 1, wherein said at least one first crystal modifier comprises a first amount of citric acid and said at least one second crystal modifier comprises a second amount of citric acid. 19. The process of claim 1, wherein the stable product comprises water and calcined gypsum in a weight ratio from about 0.15 to about 0.5, the water being substantially the water added to the mixture prior to calcining; heat supplied for calcining by delivering steam to a jacket around the reactor in which the slurry is located during calcining.
