The invention discloses high-compactness modified alkaline phenolic resin self-hardening sand for pump valve castings. An adopted modified phenolic resin adhesive in the resin sand has the advantages that the viscosity is low, the bonding strength is high, the plasticity is good, the brittleness is low, the contents of free phenol and free formaldehyde are lower, the use amount is lower, the hardening speed is decreased, and the like, so that the use and reuse performance of the molding sand can be effectively improved; through the addition of polylactic acid fiber and porous polypropylene fiber added in the sand, the thermoplasticity time during the casting pouring process is longer, the stress generated after sand heating is relieved, the retention time of a sand mold is prolonged, the castings are prevented from cracking, the air permeability is improved, the rearrangement and densification of the sand are facilitated in the fiber low-temperature fusion introduction instant liquid state, and the precision of pump valve castings is improved.
