The drive for sustainable manufacturing worldwide has caused a renewed interest in inorganic sodium silicate binders, particularly in the solid hydrous silicate variant for sustainable sand casting. This study investigates the performance of microwave hardened solid foundry binder across various sand casting stages, utilizing two different pattern materials and a range of mold aggregates during microwave absorption tests. The methodology involves analyzing mold quality with a focus on microwave hardened solid inorganic foundry binder, resulting in promising mold strength outcomes. Critical relationships between microwave heating power, time, and mold strength are established. Molding trials with different sands and subsequent casting trials using ductile iron EN-GJS-600-3 and aluminum alloy AlSi10Mg demonstrate the effectiveness of this technique. These findings reveal that microwave hardening presents a viable solution to the challenges of conventional furnace heating in sand casting, contributing to enhanced productivity and sustainability in the foundry industry.
