Moulding material mixture of natural and / or
ceramic sands with a
phenol-
formaldehyde resin-free binder for
foundry moulding sands, wherein the binder is either ➢as a one-component binder based on
polyurethane and / or
polyurea, comprising an aromatic or aliphatic oligomeric and / or polymeric
isocyanate or a mixture of several aromatic and / or aliphatic oligomeric and / or polymeric isocyanates with partially delayed reactivity, and as an additive a non-functional
diluent, wherein the isocyanates consist entirely or partially of pre-crosslinked reaction products, and wherein the pre-crosslinking is brought about by the reaction with di- or polyfunctional polyols with a stoichiometric deficit of
hydrogen-active compounds, resulting in a residual content of free
isocyanate groups in the range of 5 to 35%, and wherein the one-component binder is suitable for a multi-phase curing process using water-
alcohol mixtures, or ➢ as a two-component binder based on
polyurethane and / or
polyurea, comprising . a component A with an average
hydrogen functionality of 2.0 to 3.9, with an average
equivalent weight of 450 to 900 g / eq of the reactants and with functional and / or non-functional additives that control the reactivity, non-functional admixtures that promote processability and ensure stability, wherein the reactants of component A are polyether
alcohol mixtures of hydroxyl and / or mercapto groups and / or internal
nitrogen-containing individual components, wherein the
hydrogen-active compounds of the mixture of component A • two- to eight-functional polyether alcohols obtained by anionic or cationic ring-opening
polymerization of cyclic ethers and simultaneous addition of the resulting polyether chains to OH / NH
starter molecules and / or • Polythiols resulting from the
esterification reaction of 3-
mercaptopropionic acid with two or more alcohols or which are hydrogen-active
polysulfide polymers with free
SH groups, are selected and combined, and • an
isocyanate-containing component B is present.
