A study on mold material and coating effect in sand casting process
Surface finish is the most desired characteristics to be on product surface. This is because surface finish is a predictor of the performance of a mechanical component, since irregularities in the surface may form nucleation sites for cracks or corrosion. In this study, the impact of mold material a...
