Claim:
1. A method for producing a molded body, comprising: forming a first mold cavity by placing a second mold on a planar surface or a curved surface of a first mold having the planar surface or the curved surface; forming a first molded part on the planar surface or the curved surface of the first mold by filling the first mold cavity with a first material slurry which contains a first material powder, a dispersant, and a gelling agent, so as to mold the first material slurry, and by causing the molded first material slurry to set; forming a second mold cavity by placing a third mold on the planar surface or the curved surface of the first mold from which the second mold is removed and on which the first molded part is formed; and forming a second molded part on the planar surface or the curved surface of the first mold by filling the second mold cavity with a second material slurry which contains a second material powder different from the first material powder, a dispersant, and a gelling agent, so as to mold the second material slurry in such a manner that the second material slurry comes into contact with the first molded part, and by causing the molded second material slurry to set; the method yielding the molded body in which the first molded part and the second molded part are bonded together and which has a planar surface or a curved surface having a region where the first molded part is exposed, and a region where the second molded part is exposed.
