[edit] Use with plaster

I believe cream of tartar is employed by plasterworkers, mixed with plaster of Paris in the skim coat to retard the rate of drying and thus to allow longer working time. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 141.155.18.176 (talk • contribs) .

[edit] Disambiguation link

Added a link to clarify homonym of Argol (small village in finistère département in France). Mille sabord 22:08, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Cream of tartar isn't the same stuff. It's potassium hydrogen tartarate, whereas this page is about dipotassium tartarate.67.158.76.126 20:57, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Formula

Potassium acid tartrate has the formula KHC4H4O6. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 142.150.8.71 (talk • contribs) .

That would be potassium acid tartrate, not dipotassium tartrate. —Keenan Pepper 03:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
