Ceramsite sand

Summary

Ceramsite sand is an artificial foundry sand originating in China. It is a substitute for chromite sand and zircon sand in the foundry and petroleum industries.[1] Ceramsite sand has been used in 3D printing to produce molds, but the printed layer is prone to deviation from the location of the original object, known as pushing dislocation.[2]
