Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 21
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A method of manufacturing a foundry core comprising mixing sand and heat-accelerated curable binder system wherein the binder system is produced by the following steps, the percentages being a percent of sand: (a) crosslinking 1-3% of saccharide-containing matter with 0.15-3% of 40% glyoxal aqueous solution; (b) controlling, by accelerating or retarding, the rate of reaction by the use of 0.3-1.0% alkali halide as a catalyst using 0.4% water, 0-10% betonite, 0-10% silica flour, 0-10% iron oxide, and 0-1% of a material selected from the group comprising wax, wax emulsion, asphalt emulsion, and wax-asphalt emulsion, the reaction being at such a temperature and pressure relationship as to maintain a liquid condition during the reaction. (c) forming the mixture to desired shape and causing it to cure to a hardened state.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
129 words
A method of manufacturing a foundry core comprising mixing sand and heat-accelerated curable binder system wherein the binder system is produced by the following steps, the percentages being a percent of sand: (a) crosslinking 1-3% of saccharide-containing matter with 0.15-3% of 40% glyoxal aqueous solution; (b) controlling, by accelerating or retarding, the rate of reaction by the use of 0.3-1.0% alkali halide as a catalyst using 0.4% water, 0-10% betonite, 0-10% silica flour, 0-10% iron oxide, and 0-1% of a material selected from the group comprising wax, wax emulsion, asphalt emulsion, and wax-asphalt emulsion, the reaction being at such a temperature and pressure relationship as to maintain a liquid condition during the reaction. (c) forming the mixture to desired shape and causing it to cure to a hardened state.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 including the step of curing the core for 5-120 seconds in a hot box.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
A method as claimed in claim 2 wherein the hot box is between 250°-550° F.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the saccharide-containing matter is selected from the group comprising sucrose, maltose, corn syrup, corn syrup solids, glyco proteins, hydrolyzed pregelled starches, and hydrolyzed pregelled flours.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
39 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein the saccharide-containing material is a hydrolyzed-gelatinized amylaceous material having alkaline viscosities of less than 20 seconds using a 1.3 g sample and less than 100 seconds using a 5.2 g sample.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
25 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 where the alkali halide is selected from the group comprising KCl, KBr, KI, NaCl, NaBr, NaI or NaF.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
33 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 where the glyoxal solution and alkali halide are admixed with water sufficient to dissolve the alkali halide prior to admixture with the rest of the ingredients.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method as claimed in claim 7 wherein the alkali halide is selected from the group comprising KCl, NaCl, KBr or NaBr.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
32 words

Claim 11
Dependent Claim
22 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 which includes the step of removing the core from the form and drying the core.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
32 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 which includes the step of surface coating the core with a material selected from the group comprising water and water-containing core wash prior to drying.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
15 words
A method as claimed in claim 11 wherein the drying is performed in an oven.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method as claimed in claim 10 wherein the alkali halide is KCl, KBr, NaCl or NaBr.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
25 words

Claim 21
Dependent Claim
29 words
A method as claimed in claim 19 wherein additional water is added at the time of mixing the glyoxal and alkali halide mixture with the rest of the ingredients.
