The invention discloses an expandable copolymer resin used for manufacturing a lost foam casting model and a preparation method thereof, wherein the molecular weight of the expandable copolymer resin is 150000-300000, and the expandable copolymer resin comprises mixed monomers, deionized water, a cellulose ether dispersant, sodium salt, an initiator, a foaming agent and a molecular weight regulator; the mixed monomers comprise MMA and ST, wherein MMA accounts for 70-95% wt of the mixed monomers, and ST accounts for 5-30% wt of the mixed monomers. The model formed by the expandable copolymer resin has the advantage of reducing or eliminating carbon defects of castings when casting cast iron and cast steel. |
