46
Q

when should you pour reversible hydrocolloid

47
Q

why do you place reversible hydrocolloid in tempering batch

A

lowers temp to decrease viscosity and because it’s boiling from previous baths

77
Q

people with allergic rxns to polyether are allergic to what

A

aromatic sulfonate catalyst

78
Q

is polyether hydrophobic or hydrophilic
