The invention concerns the use of a selected polycarboxylic type dispersant for aqueous calcium sulfate hemihydrate compositions that, simultaneously with its dispersing action, can control the initial setting and/or final setting times for these compositions. The invention also concerns aqueous calcium sulfate hemihydrate compositions comprising a polycarboxylic type dispersant or a mixture of polycarboxylic type dispersants.
