| After thermal exposure, the test specimens remained intact allowing for the investigation of additional data, including impact strength, visual observation for cracks, mass change measurement that relates to pyrolysis of binder bridges and the amount of loose, unbonded sand generated at the mold metal interface. Even though specimen #2A has had less thermal exposure than specimen #1A, there is probably a large thermal defect, s uch as a transverse crack in the matrix between the laser spot and the detector spot, that gives this result. Decomposition is initiated by thermal exposure or by chemical contamination. |
