Linings for ingot molds and foundry molds

Abstract

Abstract An exothermic ingot mold lining is water insoluble and can be formed by filtration, but at the same time has high reactivity, and comprises by weight refractory material 35 to 60 percent, asbestos 3 to 7 percent, wood flour 4 to 10 percent, manganese dioxide 11 to 21 percent, cryolite 0.5 to 7 percent, fluorspar 0.5 to 6 percent, binder 4 to 7 percent, and powdered aluminum 10 to 32 percent, the aluminum substantially all passing a No. 45 screen and including 10 to 70 percent that passes a No. 250 screen. The aluminum is thus a mixture of fine and coarse powder.
