Shrinkage Behavior of Expandable Polymethyl Methacrylate (EPMMA) Pattern for Evaporative Pattern Casting (EPC)
storage temperature and time of the pattern on the shrinkage behavior of EPMMA pattern were investigated systematically.It was found that the shrinkage rate of EPMMA pattern is about 0.1% when the pattern is released from the mold
then the shrinkage rate increased gradually with the increase of storage time
and the shrinkage rate stably keeps 0.5%~ 0.6% with about thirty days at ambient temperature or fifteen days at 50 ℃.It was also found that the molding steam forming has the most remarkable effects on the shrinkage rate of the rate
