The influence of sodium oxalate on anhydrite hydration process and crystal morphology of its dihydrate products was studied by determination of the hydration rate, hydration temperature and ion concentration in the liquid phase of anhydrite in combination with the investigation of the microstrueture of the hardened paste. The activation mechanism of sodium oxalate was analyzed from the standpoint of the crystal growth of gypsum. The addition of Na2 C2O4 increased the hydration rate of anhydrite, concentrated the hydration heat, shortened the hydration latency period, and accelerated the hydration process, accordingly leading to the refinement of gypsum crystal,the compactness of hardened gypsum paste, and the increases of its strength, so it was a highly efficient activator of anhydrite hydration. The activating mechanism of sodium oxalate could be summarized as follows: sodium oxalate reacted with anhydrite, and calcium oxalate precipitation and soluble sulfate salt were then formed, which increased the SO4^2- concentration in the liquid phase, and increasing the supersaturation degree of gypsum crystallization decreased the critical nucleus radius of dehydrate gypsum, and it accelerated the crystal nucleation and growth, and sodium oxalate accelerated the dissolution of anhydrite.
