Ceramsite sand is high grade green casting material, made of high Alumina Calcined Bauxite, processed through fusing, spraying, sieving, get rid of impurity and special procedures. With ideal spherical shape, excellent fluidity and filling property, Ceramsite sand is widely used in various sizes of steel/iron/alloy casting parts. It is suitable for various bonds of casting mold and can meet different needs of various customers.

Performance/ Advantage:
Ceramic sand, often referred to as high-temperature ceramics or refractory sand, is used primarily in the foundry industry for its excellent heat resistance and dimensional stability at high temperatures.
Ceramic sand is processed to have uniform grain sizes and shapes, which helps in creating more precise molds and cores with better surface finish on the final metal castings. The sand is mixed with binders and sometimes with additives to improve its performance under high temperatures and to facilitate the removal of the mold after casting.
As the shape is spherical with high density, ceramsite sand have excellent fluidity and filling character.
The surface of ceramsite sand is glazed and compact，it can be evenly covered by the bond such greatly reduce the resin consumption.
With higher content of mullite phase than sintered sand, ceramsite sand is featured with high refractoriness.
Very low thermal expansion ensures fewer or no casting defects.
Each single bead has high strength and is not easily broken, the adhesive on its surface can easily fall off during regeneration. The ceramsite sand produced can be recycled many times and can basically be reused 8 to 10 times, greatly reducing casting costs.
Ceramsite Sand is a versatile material widely used across various industries due to its unique properties, such as high strength, low density, and excellent thermal and chemical resistance. Foundry Spherical Sand 's unique properties make it a highly adaptable material with applications across various industries, from construction and water treatment to agriculture and environmental protection. Its combination of lightweight, high strength, and thermal resistance ensures it meets the demands of a wide range of industrial and commercial uses.
