Description
United States Patent Ofltice 2,847,741 Patented Aug. 19, 1958 2,847,741 METHOD OF MAKING WASHED SHELL MOLD Application November 29, 1954 Serial N 0. 471,930
4 Claims. (Cl. 22-193) No Drawing.
This invention relates to shell molding and more particularly to the elimination of characteristic surface defects in low carbon, low alloy steel castings produced in conventional shell molds.
As is known in the art, such molds are generally formed of a mixture of silica or zirconite sand and a thermo-setting phenolic resin, either in powder form or in a solvent to achieve uniform coating of the grains of sand.
In some mixtures dust suppressants are used for health purposes and sometimes a release agent is incorporated in the mixture to prevent the shell from sticking to the pattern which is heated during forming of the shell mold to set the resin.
Although such shell molds ordinarily produce commercially acceptable iron castings and stainless steel castings, it is Well known in the art that low carbon, low alloy steel castings, such as those formed, for example of grade 8" steel, are subject to characteristic surface defects when formed in such molds. It is also known that this and other difficulties exist with respect to certain grades of stainless steel and malleable iron. Prior art efforts to solve this problem have largely been directed in one of two channels. One approach to the problem has been to discover a substitute for the sand, such as, for example, olivine, which is a relatively expensive magnesium silicate within the range of forsterite to fayalite. Although such sand substitutes improve the qualities of low carbon, low alloy steel castings, they are expensive and have not completely solved the difficulty.
Another prior art approach to this problem has been the incorporation of ceramic powder in the shell mold mixture. After formation of the shell mold, the phenolic resin has been burned out either by heating the entire mold or by burning the casting surfaces of the mold with a torch. Although such expediencies have eliminated the characteristic surface defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings produced in shell molds, the expense of such processes is prohibitive, and it has been found that they tend to destroy the dimensional accuracy of the molds.
According to the present invention, it has been discovered that the characteristic surface defects of such low carbon, low alloy steel castings results from a reaction between the molten steel and the mold, and between components of the mold. It is believed that this reaction is at least partially caused by the gases produced in the formation of silicon carbide by combination of carbon in the phenolic resin with the sand, and it is further believed that the molten steel participates in this reaction by developing high temperatures sufficient to cause the production of such gas, and possibly the carbon in the steel accentuates the formation of such gas by participating in the reaction. It has also been discovered that the molten steel tends to pick up carbon from the mold when this reaction occurs, thereby resulting in undesirable carbon fluctuation in portions of the surface of the steel castings.
The use of mold washes to prevent the steel from contacting the shell mold has generally been regarded as impractical due to the fact that such washes destroy the dimensional accuracy of the mold which is produced to very close tolerances.
Accordingly, the tion is to eliminate the characteristic surface defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings formed in conventional shell molds, without the necessity of altering the conventional shell mold mixture and Without the necessity of burning the phenolic resin from the mold after formation thereof.
A more Specific object of the invention is to wash the casting contacting surfaces of a conventional shell mold Without destroying the dimensional accuracy thereof.
Another object of the invention is to wash the casting contacting surfaces of a shell mold with a material which penetrates the surfaces and is preferably inert with respect to the molten steel and with respect to the phenolic resin and the sand in the presence of molten steel, to prevent the formation of gases or other phenomena causing the characteristic surface defect of low carbon, low alloy steel castings produced in conventional shell molds.
A further object of the invention is to devise a mold wash in the form of a slurry of water, and a wetting agent, such as, for example, alcohol and finely divided material such as titanium dioxide, manganese dioxide and cerium oxide in a particle size capable of penetrating the casting surface of a shell mold to a sutficient depth to prevent the reaction which causes the characteristic surface defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings.
it has been discovered, in this connection, that grades of cerium oxide, manganese dioxide and titanium dioxide powders are ineffective for the purpose above described when the particles range in size from about 7 to 15 microns or greater. However, it has been found that manganese dioxide, titanium dioxide and cerium oxide powders, having a. particle size of from about .2 to about .75 micron, substantially eliminate such characteristic defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings produced in shell molds, the casting contacting surfaces of which have been sealed with a slurry of such powder and a wetting agent in water. In this connection, it has been found that the maximum efiiective particle size of such powders when used on conventional shell molds is about one micron, although it will be understood that the size of the pores in the shell mold determines the effective size of the wash particles which must penetrate the pores to be effective for the purposes above set forth. The penetration is necessary to provide a barrier to reaction of the shell components beneath the casting contacting surfaces thereof without developing a layer on the casting contacting surfaces substantially thicker than 20 microns.
It has been found that the wash particles are most effective when the casting surface of the shell mold has been penetrated by such particles to a depth of at least of an inch and preferably of an inch.
According to the invention, after a conventional shell mold has been produced in the usual manner, as above described, the casting contacting surfaces of the mold which define the casting cavity in which the casting is to be formed by molten steel poured in the usual manner are washed, as for example, by brushing, spraying, or flushing with a slurry of particles, such as titanium dioxide, manganese dioxide, or cerium oxide and. a wetting agent in water. The wash is applied until it has penetrated the casting surfaces of the mold, but has not built up a layer on such surfaces in excess of 20 microns. The washed shell is then dried by the application of heat as, for example, by heating in an oven, or by infra red drying, or by application of a torch primary object of the present invenflame to the layer. It has been discovered that this prevents the reaction which causes the characteristic surface defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings without destroying the dimensional accuracy of the mold.
The shell mold is then filled in the usual manner with molten low carbon, low alloy steel herein defined as a steel having a carboncontent not substantially in excess of about 1.5 percent by weight and a content of chromium, manganese, nickel, molybdenum, copper, vanadium, titanium and aluminum, singly or in any combination thereof within a range of about nil to 15 percent by weight. It has been found that steel castings produced in this manner are substantially free from the characteristic surface defects of low carbon, low alloy steel castings formed in shell molds according to conventional practices.
A Wash which has been particularly effective for the purposes above described has been devised in accordance with the following formulation:
150 parts by weight of water 100 parts by weight of titanium dioxide, particle size about..4 micron of a part by weight of cellulose gum 7 /2 parts by weight of a phenolic resin core binder.
What is claimed is:
1. A method of producing low carbon, low alloy steel castings comprising making a shell mold having sand particles bonded together by a thermo-setting resin, said mold having. a porous surface. defining a contour of a' casting tially in excess of 1 micron and then filling saidmold with said molten steel.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein the layer particles are titanium dioxide.
3. A method according to claim 1, wherein the layer particles are manganese dioxide.
4. A method according to claim 1, wherein the layer particles are cerium oxide.
