Bonferroni's test was performed for pair-wise comparisons after F test in one-way ANOVA, which was used to test the effect of materials on the surface roughness for each subgroup stratified by gypsum products and storage time; P-values for all F tests were <0.05. The t tests were performed to do all pair-wise comparisons of roughness among different time points from one-way within-effect mixed model after Bonferroni's adjustment. 1 < 3 indicated the mean of Algiace (1) was significantly less than that of Jeltrate (3). 1,2,3 > 4,5,6,7 indicates 1 > 4, 1 > 5, 1 > 6, 1 > 7 ; 2 > 4, 2 > 5, 2 > 6, 2 > 7 ;3 > 4, 3 > 5, 3 > 6 and 3 > 7. NS = not significant.
