Not only urethane is a good photoelastic material convenient to form. Some gels can also be used.

* Gelatine for example have been used in different labs by [lim *et al.*](https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.119.184501), [Kilcast *et al.*](http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1365-2621.1984.tb12494.x/full) and [Workamp and Dijksman](https://arxiv.org/abs/1709.10311). It can be cross-linked for a better stability. The method is explained in [this tutorial]()
