ad alta tenuta


Explanation:
setting = presa, tenuta

presa, però, è più riferito alla rapidità (presa rapida), dunque direi 'ad alta tenuta'

ciao sarila, secondo me "materiale rigido" è troppo generico, la frase parla di un impression material che "sets firmly", quindi che quando lo metti ha una tenuta così alta che poi diventa difficile da rimuovere, quindi più che alla solidità intrinseca del materiale si allude al setting
