BabyRice Chromatic (Colour Change) Alginate Impression Moulding Material Powder - just add Water 2kg Fast Set is available in Casting & Printing Kits

2kg CHROMATIC ALGINATE (colour changing white-pink-white, fast setting)

This BabyRice Alginate is a high grade colour change (chromatic) alginate impression powder - which is totally safe for use on even the newest newborn skin as the alginate's main ingredient is seaweed! It conforms to British safety standards BS 4269 Pt.2:1991 & ISO 1563:1990).

Each 2kg (made up of 4 separate 500g packs) will create up to 10 hand/foot impression moulds for a newborn baby and 4-6 hand/foot moulds for a toddler aged 3.

The impression mould will deteriorate quickly, so please don't make any moulds if you haven't got any plaster to hand.

Each pack comes with basic instructions for water - powder ratio mix.

NOTE: once the impression mould has been made, you need to make your cast within 15-20 mins (using Plaster), as the alginate will start to break down! If immediate casting is not possible, the alginate mould should be sealed in a polythene bag along with a damp cloth.

Very accurate moulding, 29 Dec. 2013
Great for high resolution moulding of things that do not require highly elastic moulding materials.It would be hard to mould an entire hand without somehow splitting the moulding process into two sides to enable the hand to be removed. However flexible e ough to mould one finger.Very fast setting an inversly proportional to temperature.Good colour indicator.J

Great but 90 seconds ??, 5 Jun. 2014
I did not see than was alginate which becomes solid in 90 seconds. I use it for moulding my hands and face and you have to be really quick if you want to use it. Otherwise nice product which came fast !
