More Information
Summary:Ceramic foundry media is provided. The ceramic foundry media have a size of about 80 mesh to about 10 mesh, an average largest pore size of less than about 20 microns, and a surface roughness of less than about 4 microns. The ceramic foundry media are formed by drip casting. A slurry of finely divided particles is flowed through nozzles and formed into droplets under the influence of vibration. Uniform sized, smooth surface, spherical green particles are formed. The green particles are dried and sintered to form the foundry media.
