Cause dehydration to oral soft tissues
2. Interfacial properties
Requires separating medium before pouring of
gypsum cast and die materials
3. Mechanical properties
Rigid after setting and should not be used in
patients with sever undercuts
Brittle after setting and could be fractured in clean
cut lines during impression removal from shallow
undercuts (i.e. fractured parts could be assembled).
