No, plaster of Paris and white cement are not the same. Plaster of Paris is a porous material that will disintegrate outside in the rain. White cement is more durable and should last outside in the rain.
Yes, but the method for making sure the material separates from the plaster mould is quite involved. Some mould makers use shellac, followed by a soap treatment. There are several steps to the process, and you will probably have to destroy the mould as you break the positive out. For detailed steps on how to do this, research "plaster waste moulds"
plaster.
Painting on dry plaster as opposed to painting on wet plaster. Painting on wet plaster is more permanent because the paint is infused with the plaster.

The mineral gypsum could be used to produce plaster and joint compounds, spackling, drywall, some floor and wall underlayments, as well as an additive in some paints, caulking, and grouts.
Plaster of Paris is a type of building material based on calcium sulphate hemihaydrate CaSO4·1/2H2O. It is created by heating gypsum to about 150 °C. 2 CaSO4·2H2O → (2 CaSO4·H2O) + 3 H2O (released as steam).

No. Horsehair was replaced as a strengthening additive in plaster by asbestos. Where one was used the other was not needed. However, the only way to know for certain whether asbestos was used in a plaster is to have a piece of it analyzed in a lab by a qualified technician.

First you need to recognize that "plaster" is not a singularly defined material; it is a family of quite different materials that harden by different mechanisms. The three most common plasters are (1) Plaster of Paris, (2) Lime Plaster, and (3) Cement Plaster.(1) Plaster of Paris is CaSO4.H2O, a partially-dehydrated form of Gypsum, which is a hydrated Calcium Sulfate crystal CaSO4.2H2O. When Plaster of Paris is mixed with water, it re-hydrates and turns back into Gypsum, which then hardens into a material similar to mortar or concrete but considerably softer. Water is the material that makes Plaster of Paris harden.(2) Limestone When exposed to atmosphere the Calcium hydroxide turns back to limestone, causing the plaster to set.(3) Cement Plaster is a mixture of Portland Cement powder, sand or other filler, water, and either Plaster of Paris or Lime Plaster. Due to the great variety of minerals that makeup Portland Cement and Cement Plaster, the hardening is a complex process that cannot be ascribed to the action of any one of the ingredients.
No, it won't.
Plaster of Paris.
plaster. ------------ Answer #2 Plaster, Clay, Dirt(packed around the material and then compressed,) solidified carbon, stone, and/or any base metal that can be cut or shaped. Anything requiring a highly heated material to placed within should be solid and heat resistant. Most of these would either be a metal or stone as they withstand higher temperatures than plaster, clay, and carbon.
