In each case the sprayed metal was found 6 Claims, 1, 22 193) to be tightly adherent while the final metal shell was This invention relates to a parting agent for sprayed 10 It has been found that the desired results may be obmetal shells and to the method for making such shells and tained regardless of whether the pattern 18 formed of such more particularly to a COInPOSli'OI] adapted to be applied widely different materials as wood, clay, plaster of Paris, to a pattern or form for use in making sprayed metal or metal e range of compositions found to be best shells and to the method for making such snells whereby suited for the treatment or conditioning of the pattern tight adherence between the pattern and the sprayed metal surface is as follows: shell is assured while at the same time enabling their P nt ready separation.

Accordingly, it is an object of my invention to provide a composition suitable for coating a pattern or form to the final She I have l 3 332;? gigggg gfgaj melting p 01m meta S m spraying after cleaning, the surface of the pattern with Having described my invention in terms of its preferred shell While enabling their ready separation.
In order to maintain fidelity of reproduction of the contour of the pattern over a wide range of complexity, I have found it to be essential that the sprayed metal adpletion, the sprayed metal shell must be easily parted from the pattern without damage. Obviously, these two generally conflicting requirements must be reconciled to enable successful metal spraying. As a result of extensive investigation I have found that both low temperature metals such as zinc and tin and high temperature metals such as copper, steel, nickel 4 r D am vnomium l'ncludmg than anoya may be ggi g duplicated, depositing on the coated surface sprayed metal moval from the pattern. More specifically, I have found that a liquid mixture comprising polyvinyl alcohol, a fine grain powder such as silica flour, powdered graphite or powdered copper, and sufficient thinner, such materials, i.e., methylethyl ketone and ethyl alcohol being well ing essentially of a mixture of about 18 to 55% polyvinyl alcohol, about 20 to 60% silica flour and about 1530% thinner, said silica fiour having a maximum coarseness of about 200 mesh size.
