Abstract
Producing casting molds by blending flowable, granular material such as sand with a binder system including reactants to form polyurethane, i.e., polyisocyanates and polyols, and a solvent consisting of an ester having as its acid component an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid with from six to twelve carbon atoms, or a benzene polycarboxylic acid with at least three COOH groups; and having as its alcohol component an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, arylaliphatic, or aromatic alcohol having from six to thirteen carbon atoms.
Claims3
A composition useful for producing casting molds comprising about 100 parts of a flowable, granular solid, about two parts of a mixture including polyisocyanate and a polyol in proportions to form polyurethane upon reaction and an ester solvent, said solvent constituting from 40-60% of the resultant mixture, said ester having an acid component selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid having from six to twelve carbon atoms and a benzene polycarboxylic acid having at least three COOH groups and an alcohol component having from six to thirteen carbon atoms and selected from aliphatic alcohol, cycloaliphatic alcohol, arylaliphatic alcohol, and aromatic alcohol.
