			*No-Bake uses Sand and a [[Thermoset]] Plastic Mixture of the relevant Plastic Precursors and Catalysts which cures around the sand, holding it in place, in a similar manner to [[Composite Materials]]
			*Greensand Casting Can Have Various Binders which will make it either:
			**Self-Hardening (Minor Overlap with [[No-Bake Sand Casting]]
			**[[Gas Hardening]]
			***An example is when [[Sodium silicate]] is used. Carbon Dioxide is used to "Cure" the mold after forming
			**Thermohardening
