I have been working in the home renovation industry for quite some time now. The Plaster of Paris is used as an ingredient in many of our projects, especially when it comes to the house walls. Clients often ask me about how long does Plaster of Paris take to set, so let me help you out with this query through this answer!
Plaster of Paris (PoP) is a white material that gains hardness in the presence of water in about thirty minutes. The preparation method calls for heating gypsum at 373 degrees Kelvin. Its chemical formula is as follows: CaSO4.1/2 H2O. The Plaster of Paris has gotten this name because of the fact that gypsum can be found in a huge number in the city of Paris.
What are the uses of Plaster of Paris
Used in bone fracture and strain as a medical aid.
Used as a filler to cover gaps and imperfections on the walls.
Works as a fireproofing material.
Used to make chalks.
It is popularly used in making casts as well as statues and moulds.
Used in the method of fresco painting. Replicas are made out of Pop because of the material’s non-shrinking property when kept in water.
Dentists use this material to develop teeth moulds for their patients.
Pop also acts as a protective coating for ceilings and walls.
How long does Plaster of Paris take to dry
The Plaster of Paris takes just a few minutes to set. However, if you’re using it to create moulds, close to 1 hour of time would be needed to remove the PoP from the mould.
I hope that you’ll now be able to understand the Plaster of Paris drying time.
