Kaist SuperSand is a premium, fully sintered ceramic sand engineered specifically for high-end foundry applications. Composed of a high-purity Mullite and Corundum mineralogical structure, this advanced material is designed to exceed the limitations of traditional quartz and fused ceramic sands, offering unmatched stability in complex sand moldings and cores.
By integrating a low angular coefficient and superior refractoriness, Kaist SuperSand significantly reduces casting defects such as sand burn-on, sintering, and veining. Its exceptional reclamation rate and environmental compatibility make it the ideal choice for foundries seeking to optimize production costs while adhering to strict green manufacturing standards.

With a temperature resistance ≥1800℃, it effectively prevents sand burn-on and veining in high-temperature casting.
Reclamation rate reaches up to 98%, lasting 10x longer than quartz sand and 3x longer than fused ceramic sand.
Low thermal expansion coefficient ensures tight dimensional accuracy and minimizes casting defects.
An angular coefficient ≤1.1 improves surface accuracy and permeability of the cast products.
Lower bulk density allows producing 25% more sand cores per unit weight compared to fused ceramic sand.
Neutral pH and dust-free properties support a green workshop and compatible acid/alkali resin usage.
Particle size distribution (45μm - 2000μm) is fully customizable to meet specific molding requirements.
Neutral chemical properties make it perfectly compatible with both acid and alkali resin systems.
100% raw material utilization in production ensures zero waste during the manufacturing of SuperSand.
Bulk density similar to quartz sand prevents layered segregation during mixing processes.
Uniform core-making density guarantees stable quality and higher regeneration rates for waste sand.
Ideal for complex sand moldings, mechanical/thermal reclamation, and high-end green castings.

Ceramic sand offers significantly higher refractoriness, a much higher reclamation rate (up to 98%), and lower thermal expansion, which reduces casting defects and lowers long-term material costs.
Due to its lower bulk density (1.45-1.6 g/cm3), you can produce approximately 25% more sand cores from the same weight of material compared to fused ceramic sands, reducing procurement costs.
Yes, Kaist SuperSand is a neutral material, making it highly versatile and applicable to both acid and alkali resin systems.
It is designed for use with sand reclamation systems, including both mechanical and thermal reclamation methods, achieving a recycling rate of up to 98%.
We offer a wide range of mesh sizes from 20 to 270 (45μm to 2000μm). The distribution can be customized based on your specific AFS requirements and casting needs.
Absolutely. Its high recycling rate minimizes industrial solid waste discharge, and its stable, dust-free properties ensure a greener and cleaner workshop environment.
