January 18, 2018
I am making molds for a kiln i have designed. Do I have to account for any shrinkage of the material once dried. So if my insulation brick is to be 20 x 20 x 2.25, do I need to make it bigger so it is the proper size when dried? If so how much is recommended?
1 Answer
Yes there will be shrinkage. The manufacture does not offer any recommendation as what you are doing has never been preformed by them.

Could I use this product to use as an oven bottom? Will it cure at 1-1/2 inch thick?
1 Answer
This material is indeed able to be used for this exact purpose. The manufacturer recommends casting any shape thicker than 1 1/4 inches in two stages. For your application, pour a layer approximately 3/4 of an inch thick and allow it to partially set. While the first layer is still soft, pour the second layer. This will ensure that the first layer will have adequate exposure time to oxygen, allowing it to begin the reaction needed to set properly.
