| Summary: | The synthesis of a low cost no-bake furan resin with a high strength was researched in this paper. Through the analysis of main factors influencing the strength of furan resin, an orthogonal experiment was conducted to optimize synthesis of urea-formaldehyde furan resin with 3% nitrogen. The critical factors and their optimal levels were confirmed, and high strength property was obtained. Subsequently, some active substitute materials, including polyols A agent, methyl alcohol, mother liquid of xylitol, polyols B agent and ethanol, were used for partly substitution of furfural alcohol, the main material component of furan resin. A good combination of the substitute materials was determined to achieve a high strength, and the overall proportion of substitute materials to the resin is 20%. In this study, the substitution mechanism on furan resin was also characterized and analyzed by IR.
