New Possibilities in Thermal Analysis of Molding Materials

Svidró J., Diószegi A.

Journal of Casting & Materials Engineering

2018

Vol. 2, no. 4

67--70

Molding material-related studies within the research activities concerning foundry technology have always been limited despite the significant effect of molding mixtures on the quality of cast parts. One reason behind this trend is the difficulty in interpreting the results of such complex systems like molds and cores. This paper provides a new possibility for studying the heat-absorption performance of materials used as molding media in metal casting processes. By further developing the Fourier thermal analysis method of cores and molds introduced by earlier studies, the investigation of unbonded sand has become available. The heat-absorption properties of the components can be hereby separated and studied respectively. Thermal analyses were performed on sphere-shaped resin-bonded cores with various binder levels as well as on unbonded sand samples. The temperature data collected from two points of the samples were then used for the calculation of the novel thermophysical properties. The results revealed not only quantitative but qualitative differences in the characteristics of the binder decomposition processes, providing a deeper understanding on the thermal behavior of molding materials. The outcome of the research provides more accurate data, which is the key for the improved simulation of casting processes.

Evaluation of electromagnetic absorbing capacity of materials in foundry industry

Nowak D., Stachowicz M., Pigiel M.

Archives of Foundry Engineering

2010

Vol. 10, iss. 1 spec.

In the paper, a research on determining the standing wave ratio as a measure of electromagnetic absorbing capacity of moulding materials is presented. Preliminary tests performed using a microwave strip line showed that high-silica, chromite and magnesite moulding sands are characterised by low absorbing capacity of microwaves. It was demonstrated that microwave absorbing capacity is significantly affected by chemical compounds included in the examined substrates. It was found that use of a microwave strip line permits precise determining characteristic microwave absorbing capacities of various moulding materials and thus their suitability for microwave drying/hardening of moulds and cores or for other foundry processes. Such a microwave drier can be applied for identifying mass components and for determining e.g. base granularity by means of precisely determined reflection ratios |Γ| and positions of minimum signal values.
