can you show how to use this material when already created ? and how hard/soft it is?
Hi Anastasia, thanks for the video! Could you please tell me the quantities of avocado pits powder, water and gelatine? I'd like to try it at home :)
Para qué sirve?
Beautiful! Why use a wooden mold with textile instead of a plastic mold?
probably so that it could breath, which lets it dehydrate on both side
I use the wooden mold because the gelatin stick to the frame and in this way it does not deform during the drying process that happens faster when the air can dehydrate the bioplastic from both sides
Cual es el tiempo de descomposición? Gracias por el vídeo ❤
looks good!
how long did it take it to biodegrade? did it develop molds?
how long do you dehydrate?
24hours with a ventilator and then we let it dry completely for a few days
Can it be done by a plastic mould
yes, definetely, just be careful because if the mix is too hot when you pour it , the plastic may melt.
what are the measurements of each ingredient?
240ml water 48grams gelatine 9 crashed avocado pits ( this makes a rigid bioplastic)
Y luego?
