Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a wash coating composition to be applied to the surfaces of foundry sand cores and molds to reduce their deterioration from handling and exposure to atmospheric humidity. The coating comprises an organic liquid which can be a chlorinated hydrocarbon, a suspending agent which can be a clay, a vegetable gum or an amine-treated bentonite, a refractory powder which can be graphite, coke, mica, silica, alumina, magnesia, talc or zircon flour, and an organic polymer or copolymer which can be a vinyl toluene/butadiene copolymer, styrene/butadiene co-polymer, vinyl toluene/acrylate copolymer, styrene/acetylene copolymer, straight acrylates and styrene/butadiene copolymers.
