dc.description.abstract | Zinc alloy casting industry using green sand
molding is increasingly becoming to very
competitive circumstance. So, this paper is to
produce tertiary alloy of Zinc-Aluminium-
Magnesium (Zn-3Al-2Mg) with different
composition of bentonite and silica sand in the
green sand mould. However, Zinc alloy casting
using green sand still now plays an important
role in the foundry society, because it allows us
to manufacture at low cost and also sand can be
recycled. . The mentioned method of mould is
differing in composition of bentonite with 5%-
17%. Differ in the composition of bentonite and
silica sand give differ in result. Sample with 13%
of bentonite is the best surface properties while
sample of 5% and 17% of bentonite gave dull
surface properties. Meanwhile, for the hardness
test and the tensile strength, the results show the
same with the surface properties. The
morphologies give not much difference from
each other. Sample of 13% of bentonite have the
most amount of grain boundaries and the grain
boundaries size is much bigger than the others. | en_US |
