Binders, prepared; for foundry moulds or cores

HS v2022 Code: 382410

About binders, prepared; for foundry moulds or cores

HS code 382410 covers the production of prepared binders used in the foundry industry for the creation of moulds and cores. These binders play a crucial role in the manufacturing of metal castings, as they help to hold the sand or other materials together during the casting process. The foundry industry is an integral part of the broader manufacturing sector, providing essential components and parts for a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, and construction.

Production process

The production of prepared binders for foundry moulds and cores typically involves the blending and processing of various chemical compounds, such as resins, catalysts, and other additives. These components are carefully measured and mixed to create a binder with the desired properties, such as strength, flexibility, and heat resistance. The binder is then packaged and distributed to foundries for use in their mould and core-making processes.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of HS code 382410 binders include resins, catalysts, and other chemical compounds. Specialized equipment, such as mixing tanks, blending machines, and packaging machinery, are also necessary for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce to ensure the proper formulation and quality control of the binders.

Production outputs

The primary output of HS code 382410 is the prepared binders used in the foundry industry for the creation of moulds and cores. These binders are then consumed by foundries, which use them to produce metal castings for a wide range of applications. Other industries that may consume the output of HS code 382410 include 732110 (Stoves, ranges, grates, cookers (including those with subsidiary boilers for central heating), barbecues, braziers, gas-rings, plate warmers and similar non-electric domestic appliances, and parts thereof, of iron or steel), 842139 Filtering or purifying machinery and apparatus for gases n.e.c. in heading 84.21, and 848410 Gaskets and similar joints of metal sheeting combined with other material or of two or more layers of metal; sets or assortments of gaskets and similar joints, dissimilar in composition, put up in pouches, envelopes or similar packings; mechanical seals.
