A process for making foundry cores and molds is disclosed as well as the cor e and molds which are produced as well as a sand binder. The binder is a resin which includes a lignin dissolved in a suitable solvent reacted and/or cured with an isocyanate material. The lignin used contains no more than 2 % sodiu m ions. A polyether polyol may be added which has a functionality of greater than 3 and preferably at least 6. A tin catalyst is disclosed for use in the system which has a valence of +4 and one soluble in the system. A material i s added to the system to give the mold or core a resistance to the water in co re and mold washes. Suitable materials are propylene oxide derivatives of bis phenol A.
