Foundry chromite sand

Foundry Chromite Sand is special sand with excellent properties at high temperatures. It provides high resistance to the liquid metal penetration and produces more rapid cooling of the casting than other sands. Thermal expansion is much lower than silica sand, thus reducing the sand’s expansion problems.
The foundry chromite sand is compatible with all chemical processes of agglomeration of moulds and cores. Currently used large amounts of chromite sand in the foundry industry for the manufacture of moulds and cores. Chromite sand applies to all steel types and is very appropriate for chrome steel, chrome-nickel, and manganese steel.

Foundry Chromite Sand Application
  • Chromite Sand in the foundry industry
    Its properties enable the material to be used in high duty grey iron and steel foundries as core and mould making sand. Its high thermal conductivity gives it good chilling properties, low thermal expansion gives rise to good dimensional stability. Its basicity being close to neutral allows the use of a wide range of resin bonding systems and inorganic binders, it has a high refractoriness and a broad sieve distribution.
  • Chromite Sand in the steel industry
    In steel production, Chromite Sand is used as well filler for protection of the sliding gate in large steel holding ladles.
  • Chromite Sand in the glass industry
    When ground to a fine flour, Chromite Sand is used for the production of green glass beverage containers.
