Study on Surface Stability of Alkaline Phenolic Resin Sand
Alkaline phenolic resin sand,as an environmentally friendly resin sand,has been widely used in the production of steel castings.However,there is a problem of poor surface stability,which leads to sand inclusion and sand sticking defects in steel castings.In this paper,the surface stability standard detection method of self-hardening sand is used,and the alkaline phenolic resin sand is taken as the main research object.Firstly,the surface stability requirement that meets the actual production demand is 99%.Secondly,the alkaline phenolic resin and powder additives are screened,and two kinds of powder additives are selected.The optimum process scheme obtained after orthogonal optimization experiment is as follows:resin addition amount is 1.2%,raw sand is Dalin sand 40/70,magnesium oxide 0.1%,soluble starch 0.1%.The results show that the optimized scheme 1 h strength is increased to 0.55 MPa compared with that before optimization.The 24 h strength is increased to 0.93 MPa,and the surface stability is increased to 99.12%.The surface quality of the cast steel is better,and the sand inclusion and burning-on defects are less.
