Definitions
- the present invention relates to an aggregate particle for a mold that has excellent heat resistance and thermal shock characteristics, has few cracks even in a heating cycle, can be reused repeatedly, and has a large waste reduction effect.
- the sand (particles) used in the mold is roughly classified into skin sand used for the portion in contact with the casting and backing sand for backing the skin sand.
- the skin sand in contact with the casting is combined with a binder (furan resin, alkali phenol resin, etc.) to form a space into which the molten metal flows.
- a binder furan resin, alkali phenol resin, etc.
- skin sand is hereinafter referred to as mold aggregate particles or simply aggregate particles. However, this does not exclude the use of aggregate particles as back sand.
- Aggregate particles are required to have sufficient heat resistance because the melt temperature is high (1200 to 1800 ° C.). If the heat resistance is low, the aggregate particles will sinter and firmly bond at high temperatures, making it difficult to remove the casting from the mold and not being able to easily return to the original particle size. It is also difficult to reuse the particles.
- the amount of binder used can be reduced, which is effective for cost reduction.
- furan resin is cheaper than alkali phenol resin, but its viscosity is low and the aggregate particle surface is not smooth. If the addition amount is not increased, sufficient binder strength cannot be exerted. Will increase costs.
- silica sand has been widely used as skin sand.
- silica sand has large thermal expansion and poor casting accuracy, and has a problem that the crystal structure changes easily due to heat and is easily destroyed, and only about 10% is a waste product after being used once.
- An alternative to silica sand is chromite sand, which has a high cooling capacity.
- chromite sand contains Cr, so there are strong environmental regulations for disposal.
- Patent Document 1 proposes aggregate particles in which synthetic mullite is made into spherical granules and fired at about 1600 ° C. Although this aggregate particle can produce a stable mold having a relatively high strength with an alkali phenol resin, it has insufficient heat resistance and is difficult to reuse, and is produced by firing, so the surface of the aggregate particle is smooth. In addition, there is a problem that it is difficult to obtain sufficient binder strength with a furan resin having a low viscosity.
- Patent Document 2 proposes an electrofused mullite sand that has been granulated from a melt.
- SiO 2 content is as high as 20% or more, there is a problem that the production yield of aggregate particles is lowered because it is likely to be fibrous when dissolved and refined.
- Fe 2 O 3 CaO, MgO , K 2 O, TiO 2 , etc. is large, an insufficient heat resistance, it between the aggregate particles are easily sintered, re hardly utilized, a problem that.
- Patent Document 3 proposes Al 2 O 3 —SiO 2 -based sand in which the SiO 2 content is reduced from the mullite composition and the corundum crystal phase is the main crystal phase.
- the corundum crystal phase is the main crystal phase, the thermal shock resistance is low, and when subjected to thermal shock, there is a problem that cracks easily occur and the reuse rate is low.
- the aggregate particles contain transition metals such as Fe, alkali components, and the like in an amount of about 10% by mass as oxides, resulting in a problem that heat resistance is low and reuse is difficult.
- Patent Document 4 describes, in addition to the above, zircon sand, olivine sand, etc. as water-soluble core foundry sand. Zircon begins to decompose from around 1500 ° C., and a reaction between silica and a cast product occurs during casting, which makes it difficult to reuse. Similarly, olivine sand has insufficient heat resistance.
- Patent Document 5 proposes zirconia-based aggregate particles that do not contain a glass phase.
- this aggregate particle does not contain a glass phase, and the particle itself collapses due to a volume change associated with the phase transition. Therefore, the removability of the cast from the mold, which is the intended use, is improved, but it cannot be reused.
- the present invention is excellent in heat resistance and thermal conductivity as an aggregate particle suitable for a mold having excellent dimensional accuracy and cooling rate, easy to take out a cast product, high recycling rate, and significantly reducing the amount of waste generated.
- the purpose of the present invention is to provide aggregate particles for molds that have high thermal shock resistance and can be reused repeatedly.
- Al 2 O 3 , ZrO 2 and SiO 2 are essential components as chemical components, the total amount of the three components is 50% by mass or more, the crystal phase is mainly corundum and baderite, There is provided an aggregate particle for a mold characterized by containing a glass phase in addition to a crystalline phase.
- the aggregate particle of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the present aggregate particle) contains ZrO 2 , Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 as essential components, and the total amount of the three components is 50% by mass or more, and the crystal phase is Since it is mainly a eutectic of corundum and badelite, it has high heat resistance and does not substantially sinter in the use environment. Therefore, the aggregate particles constituting the mold with the binder lose the binder force after pouring and cooling and easily fall apart and return to the original aggregate particles, so that the cast can be easily taken out from the mold. Since it can be easily recovered from the mold as the original aggregate particles after use, it can be reused very efficiently, and waste from the mold can be significantly reduced.
- the aggregate particles have a total content of TiO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 of 3% by mass or less, the effect is remarkable.
- the crystal phase does not substantially contain mullite, the reuse can be efficiently performed.
- This aggregate particle has a small coefficient of thermal expansion, so that it has good dimensional accuracy of the casting and is suitable for precision casting, and has a thermal conductivity that can sufficiently cool the casting. Further, since the aggregate particles have high strength and high thermal shock resistance, the aggregate particles are hardly destroyed by thermal shock during casting. Therefore, in addition to being able to cool the mold by spraying water as a dust countermeasure, it is easy to reuse and has a high waste reduction effect.
- the aggregate particles contain a glass phase, the aggregate particles substantially absorb the volume change based on the phase transition of zirconia, the particles as a whole have no volume change, and the particles hardly self-collapse.
- the aggregate particles can ensure the strength of the particles themselves while taking advantage of the characteristics of zirconia, and there is no change in the shape of the particles. Therefore, it can be reused any number of times, and waste can be reduced.
- the amount of dust generated can be reduced, which is effective for improving the working environment of casting.
- this aggregate particle When this aggregate particle is granulated from the melt, it contains a matrix glass phase, so the particle surface becomes smooth and the particle surface has almost no irregularities. Sufficient binder strength can be obtained. Therefore, there is an effect of reducing the cost of the entire mold.
- grains of this invention is shown.

- the crystal phase is mainly corundum and badelite. Corundum and badelite form a eutectic.
- the addition of the vaterite crystal phase to the corundum crystal phase is a disadvantage of the corundum crystal itself, the problem is that the thermal shock resistance is low, cracking easily occurs when subjected to thermal shock, and the reuse rate during repeated use decreases. The point is improved. This is considered to be due to the addition of a vaterite crystal phase to the corundum crystal phase, thereby imparting a toughness (toughness) property to the aggregate particles.
- the aggregate particles are preferably substantially free of mullite crystals as the crystal phase.
- mullite crystals When mullite crystals are not included, sufficient heat resistance and thermal conductivity can be obtained, so that the aggregate particles hardly sinter during use and can be easily reused.
- it since it does not contain mullite crystals, it has excellent thermal shock resistance and does not easily crack even when subjected to thermal shock, and can be reused repeatedly.
- substantially free of mullite crystals means that no clear mullite crystal peak is observed by X-ray diffraction measurement, or the intensity of the main peak is 100 even if a peak is observed. This means that the relative strength is 5 or less.

なお、2008年1月22日に出願された日本特許出願2008-011852号の明細書、特許請求の範囲、図面及び要約書の全内容をここに引用し、本発明の明細書の開示として、取り入れるものである。
