Molda SN14

Molda SN14 is a formulated hemihydrate plaster used in ceramics to produce working moulds for sanitaryware slip casting in ceramics. This product uses the multicasting technology to bring a high quality and performance plaster stability such as workability time, demoulding time, mechanical properties and absorption capability.This product can be also used in tableware and refractories slip casting or for modelling plasterwork

Benefits

High constant workability, mechanical strength and absorption

Excellent mould surface aspect

Instructions for use

The recommended plaster to water ratio is between 1.30:1 and 1.50:1, with a mixing time of approx. 2 to 4 minutes, depending on batch size and plaster shop process.Mixing utensils should always be clean and free from set plaster. Use distilled water only. For consistent results, attention must be given to the correct proportioning and mixing of the plaster and water.Add the weighed quantity of plaster slowly into the measured volume of water and allow to soak. Do not mix fresh plaster with that which has been mixed for some time previouslyChanges to plaster to water ratio will influence product performance, particularly setting time and strength and absorption capability.The following graphs help illustrate how varying ratios will affect compressive strength and water absorption.
