Definitions

  • the invention relates to an ester of the formic acid comprising sizing composition as a coating composition for molds.
  • the sizing composition is suitable for core and molding, especially those made using waterglass as a binder.
  • Molds are available from a refractory material, such as quartz sand, to form into a casting mold and set by a suitable binder to ensure sufficient mechanical strength of the mold.
  • a refractory molding material such as quartz sand
  • a suitable binder for the production of molds is thus used a refractory molding material and a suitable binder.
  • the refractory molding base material is preferably present in a free-flowing form, so that it can be filled into a suitable mold and compacted there.
  • the binder produces a firm cohesion between the particles of the molding base material, so that the casting mold obtains the required mechanical stability.
  • both organic and inorganic binders can be used, the curing of which can be carried out in each case by cold or hot processes.
  • Cold processes are processes which are carried out essentially at room temperature without heating the casting mold.
  • the curing is usually carried out by a chemical reaction, which is triggered for example by the fact that a gas is passed as a catalyst through the mold to be cured.
  • hot processes the molding material mixture is heated to a sufficiently high temperature after molding to expel, for example, the solvent contained in the binder or to initiate a chemical reaction by which the binder is cured, for example, by crosslinking.
  • binder systems which are based on inorganic materials or contain a very low proportion of organic compounds.
  • binder systems have been known for some time. Binder systems have been developed which can be cured by the introduction of gases. Such a system is for example in the GB 782205 A described in which an alkali water glass is used as a binder, which can be cured by the introduction of CO 2 .
  • CO 2 a gas containing an alkali silicate
  • binder systems have been developed which are self-curing at room temperature.
  • thermosetting binder systems are for example from US 5474606 A in which a binder system consisting of alkali water glass and aluminum silicate is described.
  • the waterglass-based binder system consists of an aqueous alkali silicate solution and a hygroscopic base, such as sodium hydroxide, added in a ratio of 1: 4 to 1: 6.
  • the water glass has a modulus SiO 2 / M 2 O of 2.5 to 3.5 and a solids content of 20 to 40%.
  • the binder system still contains a surface-active substance, such as silicone oil, which has a boiling point ⁇ 250 ° C.
  • the binder system is mixed with a suitable refractory material, such as quartz sand, and can then be shot into a core box with a core shooter.
  • a suitable refractory material such as quartz sand
  • the hardening of the molding material mixture takes place by removal of the water still contained.
  • the drying or hardening of the casting mold can also take place under the action of microwaves.
  • inorganic binders also have disadvantages compared to organic binders, for example the known inorganic binders have a low stability of the casting molds produced therewith against high humidity or against water. For a storage of the molded body over a longer period, as usual with organic binders, not secured possible.
  • the US 7770629 B2 proposed a molding material mixture containing a water-based binder in addition to a refractory molding material. A proportion of a particulate metal oxide is added to the molding material mixture. Precipitated silica or fumed silica is preferably used as the particulate metal oxide.
  • the methods described for the production of molds and cores usually also include the application of a refractory mold coating, which is also called sizing, at least on those surfaces of the basic shape, which come into contact with the cast metal.
  • a refractory mold coating which is also called sizing, at least on those surfaces of the basic shape, which come into contact with the cast metal.
  • the purpose of the mold coatings is to influence the molding surface, to improve the casting appearance, to metallurgically influence the casting and / or to avoid casting defects.
  • the commonly used sizing agents contain as base materials e.g. Clays, quartz, diatomaceous earth, cristobalite, tridymite, aluminum silicate, zirconium silicate, mica, and / or chamotte and also coke and graphite. These bases are the purportive portion of the sizings which cover the mold surface and close the pores against the penetration of the cast metal.
  • the surface of the casting mold can be modified and matched to the properties of the metal to be processed.
  • the size can be used to improve the appearance of the casting by creating a smooth surface because the size compensates for irregularities caused by the size of the grains of the molding material.
  • the sizing may metallurgically influence the casting by, for example, selectively transferring additives to the casting at the surface of the casting via the sizing which enhance the surface properties of the casting.
  • the sizings form a layer which chemically isolates the casting mold from the liquid metal during casting. This prevents any adhesion between the casting and the casting mold so that the casting can be easily removed from the casting mold.
  • the sizing can also be used to selectively control the heat transfer between the liquid metal and the casting mold in order, for example, to effect the formation of a specific metal structure by the cooling rate.
  • the curing of the inorganic binder used is nowadays increasingly via a condensation reaction initiated by elevated temperatures, in which the formation of the binder bridges takes place via the splitting off of water.
  • this is a reversible reaction, i. by contact and reaction with water, the bonds can be cleaved again, the extent of this back-reaction is highly dependent on the process parameters for core production.
  • the process parameters typically used in series production fast cycle times, high temperatures
