The Chemically Bonded Sand Basics course is an introduction to the binder systems used in the chemically bonded sand systems. Presented in THORS’ highly visual and interactive learning format, this course equips foundry employees with a more robust and comprehensive understanding the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of foundry grade chemically bonded sand.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the classification of the binder system used in chemically bonded sand.
- Understand the different curing processes of inorganic and organic binder systems.
- Recall the sand types, sand size, sand shapes along with the sand reclamation process.
- Understand the physical properties of the binder system.
- Understand the mixed sand properties.
