Preparation method of sand core material for casting copper parts
The patent application of the invention is a divisional application entitled "sand core material for casting copper parts and a preparation method thereof", with the application date of 2012/05/25 and the application number of 201210167907.8.
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of metal casting, in particular to a preparation method of a sand core material for copper part casting.
Background
At present, in the copper casting industry, most of sand core materials use water-insoluble furan resins, additives, curing agents and the like as binders, and some of the sand core materials use phenolic resins as binders. Both the water-insoluble furan resin and the phenol resin have the following disadvantages: 1. the cost is high; 2. the collapsibility is poor, the sand shaking time of the casting is long, and the production efficiency is low. In addition, the water-insoluble furan resin can emit pungent odor in the production process, and the workshop operation environment is affected.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a preparation method of a sand core material for casting copper parts, which is low in cost and good in collapsibility.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
the preparation method of the sand core material for casting the copper part is realized by the following steps:
firstly, preparing materials: respectively preparing 40-140 meshes of sea sand and a binder, wherein the binder accounts for 2-3wt% of the sea sand, and the binder mainly comprises the following components in percentage by weight:
respectively weighing the sea sand, the modified urea-formaldehyde resin, the water, the curing agent and the reinforcing agent according to the proportion;
mixing the modified urea-formaldehyde resin and the water together, uniformly stirring, adding the reinforcing agent, and uniformly stirring to obtain a first mixture;
thirdly, adding the curing agent into the sea sand, uniformly mixing, and standing for 1-15 minutes to obtain a second mixture;
and fourthly, uniformly mixing the first mixture and the second mixture together, and standing for 1-1.5 minutes to obtain the sand core material for casting.
The curing agent adopts Diethylenetriamine (DETA), ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine or dicyanodiamine.
The reinforcing agent adopts silane bonding reinforcing agent, polyacrylamide or starch modification reinforcing agent.
The modified urea-formaldehyde resin is modified by acrylic ester or vinyl acetate.
After the scheme is adopted, the resin serving as the main component of the adhesive is the low-price modified urea-formaldehyde resin, and the cost of the adhesive is about 45% of that of the adhesive adopting furan resin or 40% of that of the adhesive adopting phenolic resin, so that the sand core material for casting the copper part prepared by the method has the advantage of low cost.
On the other hand, the modified urea-formaldehyde resin as the main component of the binder has higher coking rate at the casting temperature of the copper part, so that the sand core material has better collapsibility, and multiple tests show that the sand core manufactured by the sand core material can shorten the sand shaking time of a casting piece by 10-15 minutes, thereby improving the production efficiency.
The sand core material prepared by the method can save the production cost of the sand core for a company by more than 30 ten thousand yuan per year according to the production scale of the applicant. The sand core made of the sand core material prepared by the method can shorten the single sand shaking time of a casting by 10-15 minutes, improve the production efficiency and generate considerable economic benefit.
Detailed Description
The sand core material for casting the copper part is mainly prepared from sea sand of 40-140 meshes and a bonding agent with the dosage of 2-3wt% of the sea sand; wherein, the adhesive mainly comprises the following components by weight ratio:
the preparation method of the sand core material for casting the copper part is realized by the following steps:
firstly, preparing materials: respectively preparing 40-140 meshes of sea sand and a binder, wherein the binder is 2-3wt% of the sea sand, and the binder mainly comprises the following components in percentage by weight (the percentage of each component is calculated by taking the total amount of the binder as a base):
mixing the modified urea-formaldehyde resin and the water together, uniformly stirring the mixture by a stirrer (or soaking the modified urea-formaldehyde resin in the water for 48 hours), adding the reinforcing agent, and uniformly stirring the mixture by the stirrer to obtain a first mixture;
thirdly, adding the curing agent into the sea sand, uniformly mixing, and standing for 1-15 minutes to obtain a second mixture;
and fourthly, mixing the first mixture and the second mixture together, uniformly stirring, and standing for 1-1.5 minutes to obtain the sand core material for casting. The formulated sand core material should be used up within 1 hour.
In the invention, the curing agent adopts Diethylenetriamine (DETA), ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine or dicyanodiamine; the reinforcing agent is a silane bonding reinforcing agent, polyacrylamide or starch modification reinforcing agent; the modified urea-formaldehyde resin is modified by acrylate or vinyl acetate. Here, Diethylenetriamine (DETA), ethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, dicyanodiamine, silane adhesion enhancer, polyacrylamide, starch modification enhancer and modified urea resin modified with acrylate or vinyl acetate are conventional chemical raw materials available in chemical markets. The modified urea-formaldehyde resin modified with acrylate or vinyl acetate has improved toughness and aging resistance (see the modification of urea-formaldehyde resin such as pentopaz, from "glass fiber" 2004, stage 4, P18-P20).
In the invention, because the modified urea-formaldehyde resin as the main component of the adhesive has stronger toughness, the sand core manufactured by the sand core material also has the characteristic of higher strength, thereby the damage rate of the sand core is lower, the surface smoothness is good, the inner cavity of the casting manufactured by the sand core is smoother and cleaner, air holes are not easy to generate, and the casting yield can be improved by 1-2%.
