Notes on oxygen free copper casting

Oxygen free copper refers to pure copper that does not contain oxygen or any deoxidizer residue. In the production and production of anaerobic copper rod, processed anaerobic copper is used as the raw material for production and casting. The quality of oxygen free copper rod made of good quality is also excellent.

1. Overcome casting cracks

The method of reducing the temperature gradient of the casting wall is a more effective method worth paying attention to. The metal mold is used as the appearance, the iron pellet sand is used as the mud core, and the mud core is attached to the drainage. The effect of overcoming the casting crack is very obvious.

2. Argon gas protection casting

Because oxygen free copper has a strong tendency of oxygen and inspiration, protective measures should be taken for copper liquid when it comes out of the oven and pouring. Nitrogen and argon gas can be used. With argon gas protection, the oxygen content of castings can be almost not increased by closed pouring method.

3. The selection of paint

For oxygen free copper, it is better to use zirconium paint or spray acetylene flame black on zirconium paint. Practice has proved that the casting surface poured with this kind of paint is smooth, no signs of gas, and the smoke black has deoxidation.

4. The use of metal type temperature

The use temperature of the metal mold has an effect on the crack, density, surface finish and subdermic pores of the casting. It has been proved by practice that the use temperature of the metal mold of pouring oxygen-free copper is better controlled at about 150℃.

5. Process measures

The casting of oxygen free copper is more difficult, and other processes need to be assisted, such as the control of pouring speed, the design of pouring system, casting solidification, etc. The principle of non-ferrous metal casting can be applied and the characteristics of the casting itself can be combined with reasonable selection of technological measures.
