It is important to note that the input process parameters like amount of resin, hardener, curing time of the sample and number of ram strokes while preparing the sample have significant contribution on deciding the properties of resin bonded sand system. In the present investigation, the properties of the resin bonded sand system, such as compression strength and permeability are considered as the responses. The effect of the selected process parameters on the properties of chromite-based resin bonded sand system have been accomplished by utilizing central composite design of experiments approach. The result indicates that the selected process parameters significantly affect the properties of the resin bonded sand system. The results are further conformed by conducting confirmation experiments. Key-Words: - Chromite sand, central composite design of experiments, compression strength, permeability. 1 Introduction With the rapid developments in foundry industry, variety of resin bonded sand systems has been introduced for mould and core making. These systems are called cold-box process, as the mould/core is allowed to cure at the room ISBN:
2 temperature. The advantage with resin bonded sand system is that it produces castings with better surface finish and high dimensional accuracy. Further, cold box is very beneficial to save energy in production and is especially suitable for large volume production. It is important to note that the properties of the resin bonded sand system depends on the adhesive force between the binder to sand grains and the cohesive force of the resin film itself. Most of the research work on moulding sand during 1960s and 1970s was based on experimental and theoretical approaches. Marek [1] developed the relationship between permeability and transformation zones, mould pressure, void space control, etc., through substantial mathematical equations. In addition to this, Frost and Hiller [2] established the pressure and hardness distributions in sand moulds. Later on, Wenninger [3] utilized the rigid water theory to explain sand-clay-water relationships. This approach was completely theoretical and not supported by a large number of experiments. It is important to note that limited work has been reported in the literature on resin bonded sand mould/core system. Ding et al. [4] identified new additives for strengthening of coldsetting resin sand using additive method. It was observed that the strengthening mechanism of the cold-setting resin sand mainly depends on the fracture mechanism between triphenyl phosphate and resin film. A new phenol formaldehyde resin binder systems which can react with carbon dioxide gas was developed by Liu et al. [5]. The compression strength of the carbon dioxide cured resin bonded sand system was found to be increased with time. Moreover, Zhang et al. [6] analyzed the reasons for strength loss mechanism of phosphate bonded sand mold/core with the help of electron probe x-ray micro analyzer. The results showed that the addition of magnesium enhanced hydroscopy resistance of phosphate membrane to a large extent. Further, experimental determination of thermomechanical properties of cold-box sand during the solidification of the casting was studied by Caylak and Mahnken [7]. The experimental results at room temperature showed a strength differential effect in tension and compression, where compression strength was found to be much higher. It is important to note that several researchers were tried to establish the analytical relationships between the process parameters and the responses. However, it could be difficult to establish the said input-output relationships due to the inherent complexity of the process. Moreover, the statistical modeling using Design of Experiments (DOE) [8] was proven to be an effective tool for studying the complex relationships of number of independent variables on response factor of a particular process. Statistical design of experiments [9, 10] and Taguchi methods [11 13] were used to study and control the properties, and behavior of different sand systems. In the present work, experiments are conducted utilizing the concept of central composite design of experiments and response surface methodology to study the influence of various input process parameters on the responses. It is important to note that percentage of resin, percentage of hardener, curing time and number of strokes is considered as input parameters and compression strength and permeability are treated as responses. Once the experiments are conducted, non-linear regression equations representing the relationship between the said inputs and outputs are developed. Further, the statistical adequacy and prediction accuracy of the developed models are tested with the help of ANOVA and experimental test cases, respectively. 2 Experimental Details The chromite-based resin bonded sand system consists of three major constituents, namely chromite sand, resin and hardener. It is important to note that chromite sand is used to cast metals with high density and high melting point when compared with silica sand and is less costly compared to Zircon sand. In the present study, phenol formaldehyde and tetrahydropthalic anhydride are used as resin and hardener, respectively in the resin bonded sand system. Figure 1 shows the input and output parameters considered in the present study. Fig. 1: Input and output variables of chromite-based resin bonded sand system. While conducting the experiments, percentage of resin, percentage of hardener, number of strokes and curing time has been considered as independently controllable process parameters with significant contribution on mould/core properties. The working ranges of the input parameters are determined by consulting the experts from foundry and literature. Table 1 shows the ranges of the input process parameters used for conducting the experiments. ISBN:
3 Table 1: The Process parameters and their chosen levels Parameter Levels Low (-1) Medium (0) High (+1) % Resin % Hardener Number of strokes Curing time Once the levels of the input process parameters are determined, the experiments are conducted with the help of central composite design (CCD) of experiments. The experimental design consists of 27 (refer to Appendix-A) sets of experiments that allow for the estimation of linear, square and two-way interaction effects of the input parameters. Further, three replicates are considered for each combination of input variables. The grain fineness number (GFN) of the chromite sand used in the present study is equal to 41. Standard procedure has been used to prepare the test specimens. Specified quantity of hardener is added to the chromite sand and mixing is done uniformly. Then the required quantity of resin is added to the sand-hardener mixture and mixed it properly, so that the reaction product of resin and hardener is coated to sand particles uniformly. The prepared sand is then poured in the core box and rammed with the help of ramming machine (refer to Fig. 2(a)) to acquire the desired compaction.

4 Then the prepared core is kept a side for the amount of time, which is equal to the curing time specified in the design matrix to acquire the bonding strength. The compression, shear and tensile strengths are measured using universal sand testing machine (refer to Fig. 2(b)) and the permeability of the core is measured with the help of permeability meter (refer to Fig. 2(c)). The test specimen shown in Fig. 3 is prepared as per the conditions specified in the central composite design matrix. Experiments are conducted to determine compression strength and permeability of the cores produced with different combinations of the variables. 3 Results and Discussion The experimental data collected using CCD method is used to develop non-linear regression models with the help of MINITAB software. The statistical analysis of the developed regression models have been performed through ANOVA test. The inputoutput relations are studied with the help of surface plots for the responses permeability and compression strength 3.1 Response - Permeability Equation (1) shows the non-linear model expressed as a function of input process parameters (in coded form), that represents the permeability of the chromite-based resin bonded sand core system. (1) To examine the effect of various input parameters and their interaction terms on permeability, a significance test (refer to Table 2) has been conducted. The term Coef in Table 2 represents the coefficients used in equation (1) for showing the relationship between the input parameters and the response. The term SE Coef indicates the standard error for the estimated coefficient, which measures the precision of the estimate. The value of the standard error represents the precision of the coefficient. The T value is obtained as the ratio of corresponding value under coefficient and standard error. The P value is the minimum value for a preset level of significance at which the hypothesis of equal means for a given factor can be rejected. Table 2: Results of the significance test for the nonlinear model of permeability Term Coef. SE Coef. T P constant A B C D A B C D AB AC AD BC BD CD As the P values of A, B, C, B2, AB, AC, AD, BC, BD and CD are found to be less than 0.05 (corresponding to 95% confidence level), these factors are considered to make significant contribution on the response permeability. Moreover, the terms D, A2, C2 and D2 are found to be non-significant as their P values are found to be more than Thus, the relationship of percentage of resin and number of strokes are having only linear relationship with permeability. This can be observed from the figures 4(a), (b), (c), (d) and (f). Moreover, both the linear and non-linear terms of curing time are found to be non-significant. However, it is interesting to know that, its interaction with all the factors is found to be significant. The following observations are drawn from the above surface plots for the response - permeability. 1. Fig. 4(a) shows the effects of variation of percentage resin and hardener on permeability. It was observed that the permeability has shown a linear variation with the increase in percentage of resin, whereas the permeability is found to be increased drastically with the increase in percentage of hardener. This may be due to the reason that increases in percentage of resin and hardener results in more rounded grains, which leaves more radial space between the grains. ISBN:

(c) (d) 2. Increase in percentage of resin has shown a linearly increasing permeability. The reason for this same as the one explained above. Moreover, the increase in number of strokes has reduced the permeability (Fig. 4(b)). It may be due to the reason that increase in number of strokes will result in higher compaction and lower permeability. 3. Fig. 4(c) has shown a similar trend as that of the Fig. 4(b). With the increase in percentage resin the permeability is seen to be increased, and with the increase in curing time the permeability is found to be decreased. This may be due to the fact that long curing time helps in the formation of cohesive bonding between the resin layers of the sand grains. 4. Permeability has shown a parabolic variation with minimum at the mid value of percentage hardener (Fig. 4(d)). 5. Permeability is found to be increased with increase in percentage of resin, but there is a ISBN:
6 decrease in permeability with increase in curing time (Fig. 4(e)). The reason is same as the one explained above. 6. Both the number of strokes and curing time would reduce the permeability when they are increased from their respective lower levels to higher levels (Fig. 4(f)). This may be due to the higher compaction results from increasing the number of strokes and more cohesive bonding due to long curing time. 7. However, it is to be noted that, the range of variation in permeability with different parameters and their combination is not found to be much. In order to obtain the non-linear regression equation in un coded form, the input parameters are converted with the following relationship. where A, B, C and D represent the input parameters, such as percentage of resin X1, percentage of hardener X2, number of strokes X3 and curing time X4, respectively in the coded form. The response equation in un-coded form can be written as shown in Eqn. (2). Table 3: Results of ANOVA for the response - permeability Source DF Seq SS Adj. SS Adj. MS F P Regression Linear Square Interaction Residual error Lack-of-fit Pure error Total It is important to note that all the terms are found to be significant on permeability as the value of P is found to be less than Moreover, the coefficient of correlation for this model is seen to be equal to The results indicate that the developed nonlinear regression model based on central composite design is statistically adequate for making predictions. 3.2 Response Compression Strength The mathematical relationship given in Eqn. (3) shows the non-linear relationship of compression strength of chromite-based resin bonded sand system with the input process parameters in coded form. (2) Table 3 shows the results of ANOVA performed for testing the significance of the factors on permeability. The term DF in Table 3 represents the degree of freedom that indicates the number of terms that will contribute to the error in prediction. Moreover, the terms Seq. SS and Adj. SS gives the sum of squares for each term and sum of squares after removing the insignificant terms, respectively. Similarly, the Adj. MS is the mean square obtained after removing the insignificant terms from the response. The F value of regression is used to test the hypothesis. (3) The significance test shows that the linear term C, square terms C2, D2 and interaction terms AC, AD, BC are found to make non-significant contributions on compression strength as their values are seen to be more than The surface plots are also drawn for the response compression strength, and the following observations are drawn. 1. The combined increase in percentage of resin and of hardener is seen to increase the compression strength (refer to Fig. 5(a)). This may be due to the reason that lower quantity of hardener may not be sufficient to activate all resin available resulting in some unused resin. ISBN:
7 2. From Fig. 5(b), compression strength is found to increase initially with percentage of resin, reaches maximum and decreases slightly at the end. This might be due to the increased thickness of coating of resin on sand grains. (e) (a) (f) Fig. 5: Surface plots of compression strength with: (a) Percentage of resin and hardener (b) percentage of resin and number of strokes (c) percentage of resin and curing time (d) percentage of hardener and number of strokes (e) percentage of hardener and curing time (f) number of strokes and curing time. (b) (c) (d) 3. Compression strength is found to increase rapidly with percentage of resin and seen to increase steadily with the curing time (Fig. 5(c)). This may be due to the reason that long curing time allowed the amount of resin to form more bonding with the surrounding grains. 4. The increase in percentage hardener increases the compression strength in a non-linear manner, whereas the compression strength varies linearly with the increase in number of strokes (Refer to Fig. 5(d)). The increase in number of strokes may further increase the bonding strength that already formed by the resin and hardener. 5. From Fig. 5(e), when the percentage of hardener is increased along with curing time, the compression strength is found to increase. The long curing time allowed the hardener to react more and form strong bonding between the grains. 6. Compression strength has shown a non-linear relationship with increase in number of strokes. Moreover, compression strength is found to increase non-linearly with the increase in curing time (Fig. 5(f)). The reason for this is same as the one explained above. The compression strength in un-coded form is presented in Eqn. (4). ISBN:
8 (4) The results of ANOVA test show that all the terms, such as linear, square, interaction and lack of fit terms are found to be significant on compression strength. Moreover, the coefficient of correlation for compression strength is found to be equal to From these results it is clear that developed nonlinear model for the response compression strength is statistically adequate and will be used for making predictions. Once the non-linear regression models are developed, their prediction accuracy has been tested with the help of twenty experimental test cases. The average absolute percentage deviation in prediction of the responses permeability and compression strength are seen to be equal to and 7.568, respectively. From these results it can be concluded that the non-linear models has given reasonably good predictions for all the responses. 4 Conclusion Experimental investigations are performed to determine the influence of various input process parameters on the properties of chromite-based resin bonded sand system. Central composite design of experiments is used to conduct the experiments. The experimental results show that permeability and compression strength are influenced by the input process parameters. Further, MINITAB software is used to develop the non-linear regression models for the responses permeability and compression strength. Once the models are developed, their statistical adequacy has been tested ANOVA test and coefficient of correlation values. It is to be noted that all the models developed are found to be statistically adequate. To validate the developed models, twenty test cases are examined and the deviations in predictions are determined. The results of this validation show that non-linear models developed for chromite-based resin bonded sand core system has given better predictions for both the responses. References: [1] C.T.
