Two brands of hardeners were applied in the tested compositions, the first one was developed by the SAND TEAM Company, marked SA72 and the new hardener offered by the KRATOS Company, marked KR72. The main purpose of investigations was to determine the influence of reclaim fractions and the applied hardener on the basic moulding sands properties, such as: bending and tensile strength, permeability and grindability. The unfavourable influence of the reclaim additions into moulding sands on the tested properties as well as an increased hardening rate, were found. Moulding sands, in which the hardener KR72 of the KRATOS Company was used, were less sensitive to the reclaim additions.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Influence of the Reclaim Addition on Properties of Moulding Sands with the Geopol Binder}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/88522/PDF/25_paper.pdf}, doi={10.1515/afe-2015-0025}, keywords={mechanical properties, Inorganic binder, Moulding sand, Geopolymer binder, Technological properties}, }
