Abstract
The object of the invention is a method for the layered construction of bodies comprising refractory molding base material and resol resins as binders having, in addition to phenol, ortho- and/or para-substituted phenols as monomer structural elements and three-dimensional bodies produced according to this method, and a binder for 3-dimensionally constructing bodies, in particular molds and cores for the metal casting.
Claims20
A method for the layered construction of a body comprising at least the following steps:
- a) bringing together at least one refractory molding base material and at least one ester to obtain a molding material mixture that is impregnated with ester,
- b) spreading a thin layer with a layer thickness of 1 to 6 grains of the molding material mixture,
- c) imprinting selected regions of the thin layer with a binder comprising an alkaline resol resin for curing the regions,
- d) multiple repetition of the steps b) and c) for the completion of an at least partially cured three-dimensional body,
- wherein the alkaline resol resin can be obtained from the conversion of formaldehyde with at least phenol and at least ortho- and/or para-substituted phenol, wherein the substituent is an aliphatic, branched or unbranched, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical with 1 to 15 carbon atoms, and the molar ratio of ortho- and/or para-substituted phenols (A) to phenol (B) is from 1:greater than 2 to 1:15 (A:B) and
- wherein the binder has a viscosity of 3 mPa·s to 100 mPa·s, as determined with a Brookfield rotational viscosimeter, spindle No. 21 at 100 rpm and 25° C.
