What is agar and what is it for ?
Agar is a material composed primarily of water and marine algae. It shows high precision in making molds, but less than silicone, therefore it is rather not used to duplicate models for combined and precise works. The advantage of agar is its low price and the possibility of multiple use. The disadvantage is the long preparation process, the short lifetime of the mold, and in the case of duplicating the models in the refractory mass, the disposability of the matrix made. Making an agar mold begins with melting it, i.e. bringing it to a liquid state. For this purpose, the agar is diced with a regular knife and thrown into an agar dish. The smaller the cube, the faster the agar dissolves.

Repligel PG - agar for duplicating plaster models
Repligel PG is an agar mass suitable for duplicating plaster models.
Thanks to the use of a special recipe, the surface of the cast negative remains dry after the agar has set and does not react with the plaster model.
The material allows you to obtain high-quality replicated models even with sharp contours and deep undercuts.
Repligel PG can be used many times just like traditional agar - this allows for a significant reduction in the costs of duplicating models - we especially recommend it to technicians who work with the thermal injection method of acetal and nylon.
Instruction:
- the gel should be cut into small pieces (the smaller the better), placed in an agar dish or other melting device;
- heat to 90-95 °C stirring constantly, stirring prevents lumps from forming and helps to obtain a uniform gel consistency;
- Avoid overheating the gel (boiling) as this causes water to evaporate and shortens the shelf life of the product;
- To minimize water evaporation during heating, keep the agar dish closed;
- Never add water when first melting the agar;
- After melting, the gel must be cooled to 47-48 °C;
- Before duplicating, place the model in warm water for 15-20 minutes to "soak" it.
ATTENTION:
Before duplicating, the model on the surface must be absolutely dry to prevent water from the plaster surface from reacting with the agar;
setting time at room temperature is approximately 1 hour;
once the model has been released, the agar should be washed and sealed in a container until reused - this process (washing) also replenishes the water lost during melting;
However, add 50-100ml of water per 6 kg of gel if the gel dries out during storage.
Characteristics:
- accurate reproduction of details;
- tear-resistant;
- high durability;
- color pink.

Agar Sheraform 6kg
White mass for duplicating agar-based models.
Very precise, with a consistency similar to silicone.
Characteristics:
- white color;
- extremely durable material;
- very smooth casting surfaces - qualitatively comparable to the effects given by silicone;
- resistance to tearing;
- mass for repeated use.
Instruction:
- When using for the first time, do not add water;
- the melting temperature should not exceed 90/92 °C, a higher temperature may damage the mass;
- mix until the mass is completely liquid, otherwise there will be lumps;
- before duplicating, rehydrate the model in lukewarm water for 15 to 30 minutes;
- operating temperature 45 to 50 °C;
- setting time minimum 60 minutes;
- If cold water is used to cool the agar to accelerate setting, it is necessary to wait until the mould reaches room temperature before pouring the investment material;
- To reuse, add 50 to 100 ml of water.
Melting the mass in the microwave:
- cut the agar into small pieces, pour water over it, stir, then pour off the water;
- place the prepared mass in a non-metallic container in the microwave;
- turn on the device for 60 seconds at full power;
- remove and stir for about 30 seconds;
- repeat steps 3 and 4 2 or 3 times until the mass reaches approximately 84 °C
- pouring the prepared model with agar.
