An air-dry clay moldable and workable for sculptural applications, comprising a formulation of: (1) caulk or caulk base material and (2) a thickening agent and/or a detackifier in sufficient proportions to form a clay that can air dry to a substantially solid form at room temperature. The clay may include both a thickening agent and detackifier. The caulk or caulk base material comprises by weight percent: 40-90%, or 50-80%, or 60-75% of the formulated clay.

Objects made of waterglass-bonded sand, methods of making such objects and kits useful for making such objects. In some embodiments, an object according to the teachings herein is a final goods (as opposed to being an intermediate goods) such as a toy, a medallion, a building block, furniture, a wall, a portion of a sand castle and a sand castle.

The invention provides a pourable composition comprising calcium sulfate hemihydrate; optionally, cement; one or more anionic surfactants selected from alkyl anionic surfactants, alkyl ether anionic surfactants, alkyl aryl anionic surfactants, and combinations thereof; one or more set accelerator additives; and water.

The present invention provides a fiber-reinforced cement composition comprising; cement, fiber, silica, filler, expanded perlite, and polymer. The fiber-reinforced cement composition according to the present invention has low density, high toughness and flexural strength, and not contains volatile composition. When it is molded into workpiece, the workpiece is lightweight, easy to be cut and/or lathed into desired shapes, drilled and fixed with screws and/or repeatedly nailed at the same position, tolerant to humidity, termites and insects, inflammable and does not produce powder when cut, drilled and/or lathed that is hazardous to the workers. Therefore, it is suitably applicable for being utilized as a material for manufacturing furniture parts.

Latex-based formulations for coating and sculpting applications may provide blending a wet mixture with a dry mixture or blending a wet composition with a dry powder. The formulation may then be applied to a surface. In some embodiments, after the formulation is applied to a surface, the formulation may be set to the surface by covering the formulation applied to the surface with a material and/or the formulation may be self-setting on the surface. The formulation may fill gaps in the surface, thereby reducing cracks and shrinkage of the surface. The formulation may be applied to surfaces in a plurality of applications that may include, but are not limited to, sculpting, molding, and cosmetic repairs.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising clay and a sample of biological material of human, animal or vegetable origin. Moreover, the invention relates to the use of said composition for manufacturing an emotional or commemorative object, or a reliquary.

The purpose of the composition of the invention is to create an emotional bond between an object comprising said composition and the user who acquires it.

A decorative coatings method, system, device, and composition, wherein the initial part may be the blending of several materials to create the face coat. The next step may be the application of this face coat into a mold. Then the backfilling of this mold with another blended material that is not usually associated with the face coat. The method ensures the adhesion of the backfill to the face coat. The specific mixtures allow the materials to bond and form a solid product when removed from the mold.
