Much of that research involves experimenting with artisanal materials, finishes and techniques, as another "Duch Invertual" Jeroen Wand did by dipping vases in different types of plaster to create intriguing patterns.
In order to identify the types of plaster used in construction and maintenance of the site, as well as understand spatiotemporal patterns associated with the use of plaster, we systematically sampled plaster floors and possible wall/ceiling plaster in more than ten room contexts within five monumental structures.
Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and polarized light microscopy (micromorphology) were used in tandem, demonstrating that two types of plasters exist at the site – geogenic, prepared from crushed/pulverized chalk and pressed into flat surfaces, and pyrogenic lime plaster.
Green described a type of pin-in-plaster technique in which the distal pin is inserted into the second and third metacarpals and the proximal pin is inserted through the ulna at least 6 cm from the tip of the olecranon, both covered by the sterile short arm cast.
The paper presents results of a research on various types of external plasters, traditional and thin-layered, subjected to ageing tests, both in simulate and natural environment.
In this work the performance of different types of premixed plasters, suitable for confronting rising damp problems, along with different coatings (silane siloxane coating and potassium silicate paint) were evaluated.

For this type of dislocation, literature suggests that plaster immobilization for more than two weeks following reduction may lead to limited ROM [ 12, 13].
Immediate post-operative management including the use of plaster of Paris or thermoplastic resting splints, type of dressing and time to removal of sutures varies between surgeons and centres.
