PLASTERS AND GYPSUM CEMENTS

 

Casting Plaster

A quick curing casting plaster which allows minimal paint absorption while providing excellent strength and chip resistance. Setting time: 27 to 37 minutes.

 

Hydrocal White

A basic hydrocal cement with a use consistency of 45 lbs. of water per 100 lbs. of plaster. Can be carved or added to. Setting expansion about twice that of casting or pottery plaster. Setting time: 25 to 30 minutes.

 

Hydrocal FGR-95

A unique, high strenth gypsum cement for use with glass fiber for fabricating glass-reinforced gypsum cement products. Setting time: 50 to 70 minutes.

 

Hyrdostone

Hard and strong especially suitable where high resisitance to water absorption is necessary. Cannot be worked under a template. Used in high-quality art novelty and statuary castings. Should not be cast in glue molds, but works well in plaster, rubber, or koroseal. Setting time: 17 to 20 minutes.

 

Ultracal 30

Surface hardness and compressive strength are higher and setting expansion is lower than Hydrocal B-11, but has similar workability and setting characteristics. Setting time: 25 to 35 minutes.

 

#1 Pottery

This is the most widely used plaster in the ceramic industry. It is a high quality white plaster and is an excellent choice for longer-lasting slip casting molds. Setting time: 27 to 37 minutes.
