:
- ceramic foundry sand offers longer work life and reduction of sand usage
- ceramic foundry Sand’s spherical shape compared with angular shaped grains allows for easier separation from cast parts and improved collapsibility resulting in lower scrap and casting efficiency
- SAFE – to environment compared with silica (silicosis)
- Lower thermal expansion and Thermal Conductivity. Casting dimensions are more accurate and lower conductivity provides better mold performance
- Requires 40-50% less resin
- Can be used as a single sand
- Offers lower true specific gravity and specific surface area
- Improved durability compared with other foundry sands
