Abstract: A sand casting caking agent contains an acid-curable resin and an organosilicon compound of the general formula (I): ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 is hydrogen or an alkyl having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R is a substituted or nonsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, Y is an alkoxy group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, n is an integer of from 1 to 6 and m is either 0 or 1. Casting molds containing the agent of the present invention exhibit superior moisture resistance.
