This mixture was initially conceived for 3D printing; however, due to the impossibility of carrying out the printing, we decided to reuse the mixture to evaluate its behavior inside a mold.
Our surprise arose when, after a week of drying, the bottom part still appeared damp. This is because the mold material has hydrophobic properties, preventing the escape of moisture. This excessive moisture retention has caused the material sample to warp.
