Answer» RIGHT choice is (d) Co2 moulding For explanation I would say: Carbon dioxide moulding is also known as sodium SILICATE process is one of the widely used processes for preparing of moulds and cores. BASICALLY, sodium silicate is used as a binder, but it binds the sand particles only in the presence of Co2. Co2 is passed through the MOULD to tighten it, as SHOWN in below figure. |
