Problems solved by technology

Potassium dichromate solution is a common release agent in the industry to assist electroforming demoulding, but it will appear uneven during the coating process on the surface of the mold with structure, which will cause mold electroforming during the demoulding process. Difficult demoulding or local damage to the microstructure of the mold surface after demoulding, resulting in a decrease in the precision of the mold surface and damage to the mandrel at the same time
The main reason is that the surface of the metal mandrel has poor hydrophilicity, which leads to the distribution of potassium dichromate solution on the surface of the mold in the form of droplets. In addition, the existence of the surface structure only forms a local anti-adhesion effect

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the coating uniformity of a release agent by using a nano coating, and relates to the technical field of coatings and industrial manufacturing. The method comprises the following steps that (1), a potassium dichromate release agent solution is prepared, wherein deionized water is added into a beaker, potassium dichromate powder is added into the beaker, and stirring is conducted; and (2), a Cr coating is manufactured, wherein a cleaned core mold is fixed to a sputtering bin rotating table, a bin door is closed, a circulating cooling-water machine and a mechanical pump are started, vacuumizing is conducted on a sputtering bin, a molecular pump is started after the required vacuum degree is reached, a power supply is switched on for sputtering after argon is introduced, and the thickness of a deposited film is monitored by utilizing a film thickness gauge. The nano-thickness Cr film is deposited on the surface of the core mold, the surface is modified, and the surface energy of the core mold is improved, so that the potassium dichromate solution is favorably attached to the surface of a copper mold, the coating uniformity is realized, more favorable conditions are provided for electroforming demolding of the core mold, and the surface quality of a casting is improved; and the coating time of the release agent can be shortened, and the uniformity of the Cr coating manufactured through the sputtering method is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coating and industrial manufacturing, in particular to a method for improving the coating uniformity of a release agent by utilizing a nano-coating. Background technique [0002] The complex shape of the surface structure of the metal mold is usually obtained by using the precision electroforming process. Mold surface accuracy depends on electroforming release quality. During the demoulding process of electroforming, the excessive bonding force between the core mold and the replica will cause damage to the functional structure of the mold surface. Therefore, it is necessary to coat a layer of release agent on the surface of the core mold for demoulding before electroforming. Potassium dichromate solution is a common release agent in the industry to assist electroforming demoulding, but it will appear uneven during the coating process on the surface of the mold with structure, which will cause mold electr...
