A Study of Methods for Testing Gelatinized Corn Flour Mold and Core Binders

Abstract

Several tests used in the manufacture and testing of gelatinized corn flour binders have been discussed and investigated. Tentative limits for specifications have been suggested where the test seems appropriate. It should be pointed out that as more is learned about these materials it may be necessary to change certain limits and add or eliminate tests. In using these materials in the foundry the importance of using weight measurements instead of volume measurements cannot be over-emphasized because there are large differences in density between various brands.
