Description
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATION

The present application is the US national stage of PCT/CN2018/073201 filed on Jan. 18, 2018, which claims the priority of the Chinese patent application No. 2017100641767 filed on Feb. 4, 2017, which applications are incorporated herein by reference.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the technical field of modification of a curing agent for casting, and particularly to a curing agent for casting a water glass.


BACKGROUND

Casting is one of the most polluting industries in the machinery manufacturing industry, in which the adhesive for mold and core-making is the main source of pollution. Currently, organic adhesives such as furan resin and urethane resin are widely used in the foundry. When molten metal is poured into the sand mold, the organic adhesives may be burned and decomposed to release toxic gases and harmful substances such as toluene, xylene, phenol, carbon monoxide and suspended matter. In order to avoid emissions of decomposition products during the casting process, inorganic adhesives may be considered.


Typically, water glass is an inorganic adhesive synthesized by silica sand and soda ash. Water glass is one of the most resource-rich substances on the earth and is the casting resin with the least impact on the environment. However, under the same amount of addition, the mechanical properties of the water glass adhesive are lower than that of the organic resin, and the water glass has poor sand collapsibility, which hinders its promotion and application. Therefore, the specific strength of the water glass is improved by adding a water glass reinforcing agent (a curing agent for casting water glass).


Amorphous silicon dioxide can be used as the above-mentioned water glass reinforcing agent. For example, Chinese Patent having a publication No. CN101027147A discloses a mold-making material mixture for preparing sand molds for metal processing, including a refractory mold-making base material and a water glass-based adhesive, wherein a certain proportion of particulate amorphous silicon dioxide is added to the adhesive as a reinforcing agent. Although the mold-making material mixture can greatly improve the strength of the sand mold after molding, the particulate amorphous silicon dioxide as the reinforcing agent is a solid powder, which has poor continuity of addition and is inconvenient for metering and addition; the working environment deteriorated due to the dust flying during the feeding; and especially when used in ester hardened water glass sand, the additions of multiple components increase the complexity of the operation. Therefore, the amorphous silicon dioxide is disadvantageous for industrial applications.


On the other hand, compared with the amorphous silicon dioxide from other sources, amorphous silicon dioxide prepared by a thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 (amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4) is preferred, because a mold core with higher weight can be obtained with the same amount of addition, which indicates that the sand mold particles are stacked more closely. In addition, in the preparation of a mixture, the amorphous silicon dioxide prepared by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 exhibits particularly excellent properties, and the mixture has lower viscosity and better fluidity, and is more convenient to be added and used.


However, if the above-mentioned amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 is stored in liquid for more than three months, when it is used as a curing agent of water glass, it will show a sharp reduction in the adhesive strength and even fail to play the role of self-hardening.


Therefore, if the above-mentioned amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 is prepared into a liquid form of water glass reinforcing agent, it is doubtful whether the water glass reinforcing agent can still exert a strong adhesion-enhancing effect.


SUMMARY

In view of the above-mentioned technical problems in the prior art, the objective of the present invention is to provide a curing agent for casting water glass with a strong adhesion-enhancing effect, a long shelf life and a convenient operation, and a method for producing the curing agent for casting water glass and an application thereof.


The present inventors have conducted in-depth research on solving the above-mentioned technical problems, and the results show that a water-free curing agent for casting water glass prepared by dispersing amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by a thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 in an ester can solve the above technical problems, thereby completing the present invention. That is, the present invention includes:


1. A curing agent for casting a water glass, including: an ester and an amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by a thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4; wherein the curing agent for casting the water glass does not contain water.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The present invention is described in detail hereinafter with reference to the specific embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the scientific terms in the present specification have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art, and if there is a conflict, the definitions in the present specification shall prevail.


First, in one aspect, the present invention provides a curing agent for casting a water glass (curing agent of the present invention), which includes:


an ester, and


an amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by a thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4; wherein


the curing agent for casting the water glass does not contain water.


In the present specification, the term “ester” refers to a product obtained by an esterification reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid or an inorganic oxyacid, preferably a product obtained by an esterification reaction between an alcohol and an organic carboxylic acid. As the alcohol forming the ester, ethylene glycol or glycerin (glycerol) is preferred. As the carboxylic acid forming the ester, acetic acid or inorganic oxyacid (such as carbonic acid) is preferred. The ester contained in the curing agent of the present invention should be in a liquid state under normal conditions. Specific example of the ester includes, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of monoacetin, diacetin, triacetin, ethylene glycol diacetate, propylene carbonate, γ-butyrolactone, and a dibasic ester.


Preferably, the curing agent of the present invention may further include an alcohol. The curing agent without alcohol is easy to be agglomerated during transportation, which requires a large speed to disperse, thus causing difficulties in the transfer and use of the curing agent. Through a large number of exploration experiments, the results showed that containing a certain amount of alcohol not only can make the curing agent of the present invention have an appropriate viscosity, but also can achieve the original effect after slightly stirring the coagulation generated after transportation or being placed for a long time, which is convenient to use.


In the present specification, the term “alcohol” refers to a compound formed by substituting a hydrogen atom on a side chain of an aliphatic hydrocarbon, an alicyclic hydrocarbon, or an aromatic hydrocarbon with a hydroxyl group. The alcohol contained in the curing agent of the present invention should be in a liquid state under normal conditions. Specific example of the alcohol includes, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of ethanol, methanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol, isobutanol, benzyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, and polyethylene glycol. The alcohol is less toxic, and the polarity of the alcohol can be between water and ester. A particularly preferred example is ethanol, because the suspension of the curing agent of the present invention can be more uniform and stable when the ethanol is used; and ethanol is also an optimum choice in terms of economy and environmental friendliness.


The amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 is in the form of particles, and the particulate amorphous silicon dioxide preferably has a particle size of less than 50 μm, more preferably less than 10 μm, particularly preferably less than 5 μm. The particle size can be determined by sieving analysis, and the sieve residue on the sieve having a mesh size of 10 μm is particularly preferably less than 7 wt %, preferably less than 4 wt %.


In the present specification, the term “water-free/does not contain water” means that at least no water is intentionally added to the curing agent of the present invention. Various components (such as the ester, the alcohol, the amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4) constituting the curing agent of the present invention may contain a trace amount of water which is usually allowed. However, it is preferred to remove at least a part or all of the water before the curing agent of the present invention is produced. The present inventors have found that the presence of water greatly impairs the adhesion-enhancing effect of the curing agent of the present invention, resulting in a significant reduction of its adhesion-enhancing effect after a long-term storage. Accordingly, the water content of the curing agent of the present invention is preferably less than 3 wt %, more preferably less than 2 wt %, more preferably less than 1 wt %, more preferably less than 0.5 wt %, more preferably less than 0.2 wt %, more preferably less than 0.1 wt %, more preferably less than 0.05 wt %, more preferably less than 0.02 wt %, and more preferably less than 0.01 wt %.


In the present specification, the term “contain(s)” and “include(s)” means that it may include other components in addition to the components indicated. Examples of the other components include additives commonly used by those skilled in the art, such as a coupling agent (for example, a silane coupling agent or a carbonate coupling agent). In addition, in the present specification, as an embodiment, the term “contain(s)” or “include(s)” may be replaced with a closed expression “is/are” or “consist of/is composed of”.


The present inventors have found that when the proportion of various components in the curing agent of the present invention is within a certain range, the technical effects of the present invention can be better achieved. Therefore, it is preferred that the curing agent of the present invention includes: 35-65 parts by weight of an ester, 5-20 parts by weight of an alcohol, and 20-45 parts by weight of the amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4, relative to total 100 parts by weight of the curing agent of the present invention. In addition, a weight ratio of the ester to the amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 is preferably (0.78-3.2):1, more preferably (1.0-2.5):1. This enables the curing agent of the present invention to perform well in the aspects of adhesion-enhancing effect, shelf life and operation.


In another aspect, the present invention provides a method (manufacturing method of the present invention) for preparing the curing agent of the present invention, which includes the following steps:


(1) first adding the ester weighed according to a ratio into a stirring tank of a high-speed mixing machine and stirring;


(2) adding the alcohol weighed according to the ratio as needed; and


(3) keeping a stirring speed above 800 rpm, adding the amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 weighed according to the ratio, and continuously stirring for 10-20 minutes to obtain a suspension as the curing agent for casting the water glass.


In the present specification, the term “according to the ratio” means according to the above-mentioned weight ratio in the curing agent of the present invention.


In the preparation method of the present invention, preferred examples of the ester and the alcohol are as described above.


The rotation speed in step (3) above is set to be above 800 rpm, and appropriate adjustment can be made, for example, within the range of 800 to 1000 rpm, preferably 900 to 1000 rpm.


In the case where the curing agent of the present invention further contains other components, the preparation method of the present invention may further include the steps of adding the other components. The other components may be added separately or together with the above ester or alcohol, or may be mixed with the above ester or alcohol for addition. Preferably, the ester is added first and then the other components are added.


The present inventors have found that by mixing the above components to prepare the curing agent of the present invention, the one-time addition of the curing agent for casting the water glass can be realized when it is applied to the preparation of the water glass self-hardening sand, without powder pollution, having simple operation, convenient metering and addition, which is advantageous for industrial production. Moreover, even if the curing agent of the present invention is stored for more than 90 days before use, the adhesion-enhancing effect will not be weakened, the strength of the water glass sand can still be significantly enhanced, and after molding, the manufactured sand mold or mold core can still maintain relatively high strength after being stored for a long time, which greatly improves the mechanical properties of the sand mold or mold core.


Although the mechanism of action of the present invention is not clear, one explanation is that in the presence of water in the system, the amorphous silicon dioxide obtained by the thermal decomposition of ZrSiO4 interacts with the water to accelerate the decomposition of the ester, and by excluding water from the system, the decomposition of the ester is suppressed.


Accordingly, in another aspect, the present invention provides an application of the curing agent of the present invention for producing a sand mold or a mold core. The sand mold or mold core is preferably used for a metal casting, and preferably, the metal casting is a steel casting.


Moreover, in another aspect, the present invention also provides a water glass self-hardening sand. Moreover, relative to total 100 parts by weight of the water glass self-hardening sand, the water glass self-hardening sand includes: 95-98 parts by weight of a quartz sand, 1.8-3.6 parts by weight of a water glass, and 0.2-1.4 parts by weight of a curing agent for casting water glass; and the curing agent for casting water glass is the curing agent of the present invention.
