Pickling is heating the discolored casting in an acid.
The best pickling solutions for gypsum bonded investments is a 50% hydrochloric acid solution.
The hydrochloric acid aids in the removal of any residual investment, as well as of the oxide coating.
The disadvantage of hydrochloric acid is that the fumes from the acid are likely to corrode laboratory metal furnishings. In addition, these fumes are a health hazard and should be vented via a fume hood.
A solution of sulfuric acid may also be more advantageous in this respect.
Ultrasonics are also useful for cleaning the casting.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

10. INTRODUCTION TO GYPSUM
PRODUCTS
• Gypsum is a white
powdered mineral widely
found in nature.
• Used for making dental
casts since 1756.
• Chemical name
Calcium sulphate
dihydrate.(CaSO.2H2O)
• In dentistry, gypsum is
used in the form of
Calcium sulphate
hemihydrate.
(CaSO.½H2O)
10
11. TYPES OF

from gypsum to form calcium sulphate
hemihydrate.
Gypsum Gypsum product + water
2CaSO4.2H2O (CaSO4)2.H2O + 3H2O
Calcium sulphate dihydrate Calcium sulphate hemihydrate
• Application of gypsum product in dentistry
involves the reverse of the above reaction.
(CaSO4)2.H2O + 3H2O 2CaSO4.2H2O
18. Method of manufacturing
Model & die materials
DENTAL PLASTER: (Plaster
of Paris/ Soft plaster)
1) Produced by dry
calcination.
2) Grounded gypsum is
heated in an open
vessel/kettle at 110-130
°C.
3) β hemihydrate crystals
are formed.
DENTAL STONE:
1) Calcination is done
under steam pressure in
an autoclave at 120-
130°C at 17lbs/sq.inch
for 5-7 hours.
2) α hemihydrate crystals
are formed.
HIGH STRENGTH (α
MODIFIED) STONE:
1) Wet Calcination is done
by boiling gypsum in
30% calcium chloride
solution.
19. Manipulation
Water to powder ratios
Gypsum Product Water (ml) Powder (g) W/P ratio
(ml/g)
Plaster 50 - 60 100 0.55
Stone 20 – 35 100 0.30
Theoretical
ratio
18.6 100 0.186
Theoretical ratio (0.186) is enough to satisfy
chemical reaction.
Excess water is absorbed by porosities.
20. Manipulation
HAND MIXING:
• Instruments required are
rubber bowl & stiff spatula
• Water & plaster are taken
according to recommended
ratio.
• Water is taken first in bowl.
• Mixing is done vigorously
with the help of stiff
spatula.
• Continue spatulation till a
smooth creamy mixture is
formed.
• Vibrate the mix to avoid air
entrapment.
22. SETTING REACTION
• Setting starts
rapidly after mixing
P/W.
• Water becomes
saturated with
hemihydrate.
• Dissolved
hemihydrate is
then converted into
dihydrate.
• Crystals of dihydrate
grow form specific sites
called nuclei of crystals
(crystals are ultimate
units of the substance
from which it was
formed)
• These may be small
particles of impurities,
unconverted gypsum
crystals (calcium
sulphate dihydrate)
within the hemidyrate.
23. SETTING REACTION
• If more water is
added, centers of
nucleation are
more widely
dispersed by the
dilution effect.
• With greater
spaces between
crystals leading to
a significant
reduction in
strength
• Two stages can be
identified during
setting.
• Initial set: During this
stage the material
becomes rigid but not
hard and can be
carved but not
moulded (8-16
minutes).
• Final set: The material
becomes hard and
strong, however
hydration reaction is
not necessarily
completed.(30- 40
minutes).
24. Exothermic Reaction
• The hydration of the
hemihydrate is
exothermic, so heat is
given out during
setting.
• Temperature is
maximum during the
stage of final setting.
• Temperature rise is
negligible at the time
of initial set.
• The magnitude of the
temperature rise
depends on the bulk
of the material used.
25. Measurement of Setting of
Gypsum
TESTS FOR MEASURING
SETTING
• Loss of gloss test for
initial set.
• Gillmore test for initial
setting.
• Gillmore test for final
setting.
27. READY-FOR-USE CRITERION:
Ready-for-use criterion is a measure of time at
which the set material can be handled safely.
Ready-for-use criterion is not judged by any specific
test.
Comes with experience.
Technically set material is considered ready for use
when the compressive strength is 80%. (attained in
1hr)
Modern products reach ready-for-use stage in 30
min.

RESISTANCE.
4) REPRODUCTION OF
DETAILS.
1) SETTING EXPANSION
I. Normal setting expansion.
II. Hygroscopic setting
expansion.

May be desirable (investment
materials) or undesirable
(impression plaster, dental
plaster, stone)
NORMAL SETTING EXPANSION
29. PROPERTIES OF
GYPSUM PRODUCTS
Control of normal setting
expansion
1) Mechanical mixing.
2) Increase in W/P ratio.
3) Use of modifiers.
4) 4% solution of Potassium
sulphate.
5) Sodium chloride.
6) Borax.
HYGROSCOPIC SETTING
EXPANSION
• Occurs when placed under
water before initial set stage.
• Expansion is greater than
normal setting expansion.
• Used to expand gypsum
bonded investments.
• Reduced W/P ratio increases
the hygroscopic setting
expansion.
• Increased spatulation
increases the hygroscopic
setting expansion
30. PROPERTIES OF
GYPSUM PRODUCTS
2) STRENGTH
• Strength increases rapidly as
material hardens.
• Greater the water = lesser the
strength.
1) Wet strength:
Strength of gypsum when water
is more than necessary for
reaction.
2) Dry strength:
Strength of gypsum when excess
free water is lost due to
evaporation.
FACTORS AFFECTING STRENGTH
1) Temperature.
2) W/P ratio.
3) Spatulation.
4) Addition of
accelerators &
retarders.
31. PROPERTIES OF
GYPSUM PRODUCTS
3) HARDNESS & ABRASION
RESISTANCE
• Good surface hardness &
abrasion resistance is
essential.
• Hardness is related to
compressive strength.
• However surface hardness
& abrasion resistance are
not related.
• Commercial hardening
solutions are available.
4) FLOW
• Depends upon W/P ratio.
• Correctly proportioned mix
has sufficient flow.
• Vibrating the mix improves
flow of gypsum.
• Flow reduces as gypsum
reaches initial set.
• Produce accurate details.
• Important in case of
duplicating casts
