Abstract
A case study of the comparison of the properties of conventional foundry sand and light weight cenosphere/microsphere particles has been undertaken. This analysis was initiated by the preparation of their respective specimens, followed by the actual testing of these samples. Properties such as Compression strength, Shear strength, Permeability and Hardness were determined. In addition the grain form and microstructure of the specimens prepared was also analyzed. This analysis clearly indicates the possibility of the usage of cenospheres as a replacement of foundry sand.
