Dynamic Testing of Green Sand
E. 25% Western bentonite, 75% Southern bentonite. AFS sand tests measured properties of each green sand system (Table 1). The key variable was compactability, a mechanical property related to the percentage decrease in height during compaction at the molding machine. Moisture and compactability are the key tests for controlling water additions.
