kolkata method for sand testing in foundries

Application of Foundry Sand In Civil Constructionsand test and it s different types for casting process

the foundry sand is used in the construction it also can be used in the regions where the temperatures are high acid soluble matter in foundry sand has no effect on concrete since its presence is in very negligible amount The other contents of the foundry sand are the same as found in the natural sand that is used for theSand test used to determine foundry sand properties for casting method In this sand reject for two reason such as sand defects due to sand property and metallurgical defects In this defects arise from sand testing and making the additiv The green sand is made from silica sand
