There's several purposes of heating the investment one of them is to remove the wax by softening or burning another purpose is:

Avoid the rapid cooling of the alloy or ceramic so it can fill the place of wax significantly

We heat it just because we want the wax to be removed

Nothing of the above

The temperature of the investment should be approximately the same as the metal temperature

True

False

The requirements of investment material are/is

The investment should be capable of reproducing the shape, size and detail recorded in the wax pattern.

The investment mould should be capable of maintaining its shape and integrity at the alloy casting elevated temperatures

The investment should have a sufficiently high value of compressive strength at the casting temperature

All of the above
