Zusammenfassung:Defects can arise in a product of a metal casting process from reactions occurring at a metal-mold interface. A method that reduces the defects uses an organic binder system by introducing a separate third component to a two-part polyurethane-based binder system used in the cold box or no bake process. The third part is added only after the first two parts are mixed with a refractory molding material to provide a shapeable foundry mix. The third part is an alkyl silicate, such as tetraethyl orthosilicate ("TEOS"), an alkyl orthoformate, such as trimethyl orthoformate (TMOF) or triethyl orthoformate (TEOF), or combinations thereof.
