Abstract
A process of making sand cores and molds without the necessity of using an amine gas or sulphur dioxide gas to act as a catalyst by coating sand with a foundry resin which is capable of holding the sand in the proper shape after molding of the core or mold which foundry resin may be of a conventional construction. After the core or mold has been formed, hot air having a temperature of at least 180.degree. F. and in the range of from there to 1000.degree. F. is passed through the formed core to harden the core or mold at a rate sufficiently high to satisfy high production conditions without the necessity of toxic amines or sulphur dioxide.
