GEOPOL® Technology – Ecological and Economical Solutions to Foundry Problems
Characteristics
GEOPOL® technology is an ecological geopolymer-based inorganic binder system producing moulds and cores from mixtures for casting ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Application area
Self-hardening mixtures curable with SA series hardeners:
- High bonding ability, binder dosage 1.4 to 2.0 %.
- Ecological and economical system for producing moulds and cores.
- Mixture workability of 2 to 90 minutes.
- Good break down after pouring.
- Mechanical reclamation – mechanical abrasion can be used.
- Operational use of 100% recycled sand for backing sand.
- Operational use of 70 to 75% recycled sand for facing sand.
Mixtures curable with CO2:
- Binder dosage of 2.3 to 3.0 %.
- Ecological and economical system for producing moulds and cores.
- Mixtures suitable for manufacturing cores by shooting.
- Good break down after pouring.
- Low CO2consumption.
- Seamless core storage life.
