What effect does using a more diluted gypsum-bonded investment mixture have?

Show Answers

Yield a casting with a finer surface finishReduce the amount of setting expansionCause an increase in setting expansionEnhance thermal expansion properties

Explanation

When the gypsum-bonded investment is mixed thinner, it results in less setting expansion because the dilution lowers the concentration of reactive components responsible for expansion during the setting process.
