Cold-Box Process - Sipurid
New generation Cold Box - Properties1. OH groups reduced
> Viscosity of the base resin is reduced> Less solvent required – 50%
2. Increased molecular mass> Amount of isocyanate can be reduced
3. Silicate embedded in resin matrix – chemical bond> Improved thermal stability> Less organic in the resin / system> Less emission (gas, odour, condensates)

Conclusion
For the succesfull production of complex castings the used binder systemsand additives have to be chosen accordingly
Modern binder systems with low gas evolution and small emission footprint
Additives with controlled sintering properties and low gas evolution
