Five kinds of matrices, differing in grain size compositions, determined by the laser diffraction method in the Analysette 22NanoTec device, were applied in investigations. Individual kinds of matrices were used for making core sands in the Cordis technology. From these sands the shaped elements, for determining the apparent density of compacted sands and their bending strength, were made by the blowing method. The shaped elements (cores) were made at shooting pressures being 3, 4 and 5 atn. The bending strength of samples were determined directly after their preparation and after the storing time of 1 hour.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Influence of the Matrix Grain Size on the Apparent Density and Bending Strength of Sand Cores}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/101962/PDF/afe-2017-0005.pdf}, doi={10.1515/afe-2017-0005}, keywords={Moulding sand, Core sand, Blowing method, Inorganic binder, Bending strength}, }
