Evaluation of used plaster of paris recyclebility for mould making

The use of plaster of Paris is widespread mainly in the manufacture of ceramic products, especially of clay using a plaster mold. Plaster molds used to produce cast products such as claypots, dishes, decorative lighting, tiles, sculpture and many more. However, the plaster mold has a particular life...
