Abstract

In a forming method and a mold wherein a slip is cast into the mold and wherein the mold is removed after hardening of the slip, the mold is patterned by the use of a water-soluble binder. The mold absorbs a water content in the slip to soften and to become easy of removal, while the slip has the water content absorbed to harden promptly. Therefore, the forming method and the mold are especially suited to produce a cast article of complicated shape.
