Process for producing molded articles.

摘要

Provided is a process for producing molded articles having excellent flexural strength, flexibility and dimensional stability, which comprises autoclave-curing at not lower than 100 DEG C an aqueous composition comprising a hydraulic material (A) and a polyvinyl alcohol (B) powder, said polyvinyl alcohol (B) powder being contained in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the weight of said hydraulic material (A). Also provided are molded articles comprising a hydraulic material (A) and a polyvinyl alcohol (B), said polyvinyl alcohol (B) being contained in an amount of 0.1 to 20% by weight based on the weight of said hydraulic material (A), said molded article having a structure comprising said polyvinyl alcohol (B) having once dissolved and then solidified being dispersed therein in the form of islands. These molded articles have excellent flexural strength, flexibility and dimensional stability.
