+ | =====recipe for the double fabric with psyllium and hemp (2022)===== | ||
+ | this is for a bigger skin, bigger quantities | ||
+ | - water: 1800ml | ||
+ | - psyllium: 100 gr | ||
+ | - glycerine: 130gr or 100ml | ||
+ | - colours: acryl mixed in the mass (first soluted in water) | ||
+ | => attention: normally these measures are by volume, so the amounts indicated here are only to use together! | ||

I put each of the containers for 2 hours in a warm-air oven heated to 50°C to kickstart the drying process. The paste became more solid after this, and I hope it will be a good remedy against mould invasions. I will leave the rest of the drying process in a natural way. | I put each of the containers for 2 hours in a warm-air oven heated to 50°C to kickstart the drying process.

I've put the recipients another 2 times for 2 hours (every 2 days) in the 50°C heated oven (only warm air). After 6 days I took the pieces of celllulose out of the containers. They are solid rubber and very flexible. There is a slight difference between the piece with more glycerin and the one with less glycerin. The one with less is more elastic but not so solid. | I've put the recipients another 2 times for 2 hours (every 2 days) in the 50°C heated oven (only warm air).

- | The pieces look really fine when I stick them with their jelly/ | + | I think I finally found the right combination of quantities/ |
Another small experiment is to work with half spheres. I made a sphere out of plaster and I put strips of cellulose (1 day old) in a woven pattern on top. The purpose is to check if the cellulose after drying takes on the spherical form, without the support of the plaster cast. | Another small experiment is to work with half spheres.
