In 1996, Hüttenes?Albertus introduced a new patented environment-friendlier Cold-Box System that ? compared to classical Cold-Box Systems - provides a major reduction of odor emissions during core production, a reduction of benzene, toluene and xylene emissions as well as several other significant technical advantages such as the following:

• Problem-free stripping of cores from the core box
• Minimization of the resin buildup in the core box
• Reduction of catalyst consumption
• Productivity increase
• Avoidance of casting defects such as erosions and scabs due to the high thermal resistance of the new Cold-Box Systems
• Improvement of the dimensional stability of the castings

Increase in schooting sequence trough reduction of adhesion tendency		Improvement of the dimensional stability of the castings
Reduction of catalyst consumption		Reduction of flushing time

These systems combine Cold-Box resins and activators that are dissolved in a vegetable oil derived solvent and not in the previously preferred high-boiling aromatic hydrocarbon.

The second generation of these new Cold-Box systems is meanwhile available on the market, and offers not only substantial economic advantages, but also good collapsibility properties in aluminum castings.
