| Abstract: |
The article focuses on how casting defects are frequently misattributed to resin and coating chemistry when the true root causes lie in flawed foundry processes. Topics include recurring defect patterns like core-stripping failures, burn-on, and gas blows, the tendency to blame input materials rather than process controls, and the need to scrutinize fundamentals like sand temperature, dip tank mixing, and moisture control. |
