Technical field
The present invention relates generally to Nitrogen trifluoride (NF 3) gas refining, and relate more specifically to by removing carbon tetrafluoride (CF 4) method of refining nitrogen trifluoride gas.
Background technology
In semi-conductor industry, Nitrogen trifluoride has purposes variously, comprises the fluorine source as plasma etching, the cleaning agent of CVD reactor, and semi-conductive dry ecthing agent.In addition, Nitrogen trifluoride can be used to rocket fuel.Along with the development of semi-conductor industry, gas of nitrogen trifluoride has very big demand.Make demand become geometric progression ground to increase to the growing demand of not having any environmental pollution gas to gas of nitrogen trifluoride.Certainly, gas of nitrogen trifluoride requires to have high purity in these purposes.
Nitrogen trifluoride can be used prepared in various methods, comprises directly fluoridizing of ammonia, makes the reaction of ammonia and fluorine with plasma, and with ammonium fluoride or hydrogen fluoride as raw material electrolysis NH 4The molten-salt electrolysis of xHF (x:1.8~2.1).
In most cases when these methods of use, impurity is as nitrous oxide (N 2O), carbon dioxide (CO 2), carbon tetrafluoride (CF 4), dinitrogen difluoride (N 2F 2), or the like, produce in a large number simultaneously, therefore to obtain to be suitable for the high purity N F of semi-conductor industry 3Gas must carry out purifying.
Especially, use usual way, as distillation, body absorption or the like is from NF 3The middle removal as producing NF 3Impurity and the CF that produces 4Be difficult, since their boiling point, molecular weight, and heat of adsorption is all close.In addition, carbon tetrafluoride even the existence of trace is arranged, because form the solid residue of carbon for example or carborundum, also can give rise to trouble when conductor etching.
U.S. Pat .5,069,887 (obligee Takashi et al) have disclosed a kind of method of removing the carbon tetrafluoride refining nitrogen trifluoride gas with synthetic zeolite.In the method, zeolite 5A, the crystallization water that it comprises 1 to 10% weight is used as adsorbent, and the carbon tetrafluoride content that the Nitrogen trifluoride of generation has is 10ppm or littler, has satisfied the requirement of electronics industry.Yet, the shortcoming of this method be the water content of synthetic zeolite must be adjusted in the preset range and the adsorption temp scope very narrow.
Use the visible U.S. Pat .5 of another kind of process for purification of synthetic zeolite, 069,690, (obligee Philip et al.), this Patent publish the dynamics gas-solid chromatography.In the method, the zeolite with certain porosity of hydrothermal treatment consists is used as adsorbent, and discontinuous admixture of gas pulse absorbs attached dose of bed by this porous, and a kind of gas of this adsorbent dynamics ground absorption is easier than other gas of absorption, causes NF 3The selection of gas separates.Yet the hydrothermal pretreatment of control zeolite pores rate is difficult to carry out.In addition, the term of validity of zeolite, promptly the period of saturation is too short, this zeolite method can not be used for business-like large batch of Nitrogen trifluoride and purify.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem
Undertaken by the present inventor, cause of the present invention, to NF 3Deeply and carefully and comprehensively studying of method for refining obtains finding, that is, when exchange of process alkaline-earth metal ions and dipping, zeolite 3A, 4A or 5A, as molecular sieve, can be effectively from NF 3And CF 4Optionally adsorb NF in the mixture 3
Technical scheme
The present invention relates to use through alkaline-earth metal ions exchange and the refining NF of impregnated zeolite 3A 3The method of gas, and zeolite 3A, 4A or the 5A that wherein adopt through alkaline-earth metal ions exchange and dipping.
Commercially available zeolite 3A, 4A and 5A, itself can not be used for purifying NF 3, because they can not distinguish NF in absorption 3And CF 4Zeolite 3A and 4A have less aperture, so that can not adsorb NF fully 3And CF 4, and the aperture of zeolite 5A is even as big as adsorbing NF simultaneously 3And CF 4Therefore, only at NF 3The selection absorption aperture that requires adsorbent to have compare CF 4Molecular dimension little, but than NF 3Molecular dimension big.
The aperture of change zeolite can be used with the ion-exchange or the dipping of metal cation and be realized.Feature of the present invention is that 4A or 5A are to change the aperture of zeolite with ion-exchange of appropriate bases earth metal and dipping zeolite 3A.That is, zeolite 3A, the aperture of 4A or 5A is adjusted to predetermined size by the ion-exchange with alkaline-earth metal, then by further accurately controlling with metal impregnation.
Usually, be used for ion-exchange of the present invention and be widely used in metal ingredient is loaded into such as silica, silica-alumina is on the carrier of zeolite or the like.Especially, zeolite is useful for the adaptability of cation exchange for loading metal ion.The cation of zeolite can exchange according to the kind of ion and concentration and other cations of solution.Except being used for the separating metal ion, the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of zeolite is a kind of method for the acidity and the introducing metal ion of control zeolite.Typically, zeolite A type is synthetic as cation with sodium ion.Have the effective aperture that has about 0.4nm (4A type) as the zeolite A type of cationic sodium ion.When potassium ion becomes 0.3nm (3A type) and becomes 0.5nm (5A type) during as cation when calcium ion in the effective aperture during as cation.On zeolite, cation can exchange according to concentration and other type of cationic kind and solution.When loading by ion-exchange, active material can be evenly distributed on the carrier very much.
Dipping is by contacting with carrier with the solution that comprises active component, and active material is loaded into a kind of method on the carrier.According to contact technique, absorption is arranged, spraying, evaporation drying and incipient wetness method.In absorption method, carrier is dipped in the solution that comprises active component, so that active component is attracted on the carrier surface.The evaporation drying method is usually evaporated so that the mode that active component is fixed on the carrier is finished by carrier is immersed in the solution that comprises active component and with solution.Must be careful when adopting this method, because the big pickup of active component may block the minute aperture of carrier.As for spray-on process, be a kind of of evaporation drying method, comprise that the solution that will comprise active component is ejected on the carrier that shakes or stir in evaporimeter.By spray-on process, active component is impregnated on the carrier surface more, rather than enters in the micropore of carrier.According to incipient wetness method, in the solvent that has with the micropore equal volume of carrier, there is the solution of active component to be adsorbed on the carrier, then remove solvent through super-dry.
According to the present invention, provide a kind of by optionally removing CF 4The method of refining nitrogen trifluoride, wherein the mixture of carbon tetrafluoride and Nitrogen trifluoride is introduced in the pillar of having filled zeolite, zeolite wherein is through alkaline-earth metal ions exchange and flooded, so Nitrogen trifluoride optionally is adsorbed onto on the zeolite and from the zeolite desorption, and carbon tetrafluoride passes through pillar.

Be used for ion-exchange and dipping prepare zeolite, the aqueous solution contains the precursor of metal that remains ion-exchange, and wherein concentration of metal is 0.01 to 3M, and preferably concentration is 0.5 to 1.5M.For example, when the concentration of aqueous solution that comprises the metal of wanting ion-exchange is lower than 0.01M, can not realize ion-exchange fully.On the other hand, when concentration of aqueous solution surpassed 3M, the ion-exchange capacity of zeolite did not further increase along with the increase of solution concentration.
In the aqueous solution, zeolite and metal preferably carried out ion-exchange 0.5 to 24 hour at 50 to 80 ℃ at 35 to 100 ℃, and preferred 2 to 12 hours, stir simultaneously with 5 to 100rpm rotating speed, preferred rotating speed 10 arrives 50rpm.After ion-exchange, zeolite comprises the amount of alkaline-earth metal preferably based on 20 to 95% of the whole weight metals of zeolite.
Except exchanging with alkaline-earth metal ions, zeolite also floods with alkaline-earth metal.For this reason, the aqueous solution that comprises the alkaline-earth metal that is used to flood of required amount with above-mentioned precursor preparation.Then, will immerse in the above-mentioned aqueous solution through the zeolite of alkaline-earth metal ions exchange and keep at room temperature, then, in evaporimeter, with this Zeolite dehydration 0.5 to 24 hour, preferred 2 to 10 hours.This dipping can be regulated the micropore diameter of zeolite 3A to the size that requires.The amount of alkaline-earth metal dipping is preferably based on 0.1 to 5% magnitude of zeolite gross weight.
It is spherical being used for zeolite of the present invention, particle size range from 4 to 100 orders, preferably from 8 to 40 orders.After exchanging with alkaline-earth metal ions, the zeolite with this particle diameter to be heat-treated, treatment temperature is 150-600 ℃, preferred 200-500 ℃, the processing time is 0.5-100 hour, preferred 2-50 hour, more preferably 4-20 hour.
Make zeolite can be used as adsorbent in this temperature range heat treatment, its adsorption capacity that has is enough to realize purpose of the present invention.For example,, heat treatment carries out if being lower than under 150 ℃ in temperature, zeolite, even the processed long period, the adsorption capacity after operation reduces sharp, therefore has very little Nitrogen trifluoride adsorbance.It is believed that this is that the moisture in the zeolite has occupied the position that major part can be adsorbed the Nitrogen trifluoride molecule, makes the NF of per unit volume zeolite owing to be lower than 150 ℃ of processing down in temperature 3The adsorption capacity variation.Therefore, in order to make zeolite dehydration fully, the temperature that heat treatment is carried out preferably is higher than 150 ℃.
On the other hand, heat treatment temperature is higher than the breaking of micropore of 600 ℃ of aggravation changes of zeolite crystal structures or zeolite, reduces the adsorption capacity of zeolite widely.The result makes zeolite the problem that can not adsorb Nitrogen trifluoride occur, or it is saturated to reach absorption after gas permeation in the short time.
The heat treatment of zeolite is preferably carried out in the presence of not dampish substantially slumpability gas, as nitrogen, and helium, neon, argon, xenon, or the like.Equally, heat treatment can be carried out under suction inert gas minimizing pressure.
At length, a kind of heat treatment method is to place zeolite granular and the heating that skim has the requirement Size Distribution in the drier bottom, makes inert gas flow through the thin layer of zeolite particles simultaneously.Yet the absorption of heat treatment and gas of nitrogen trifluoride and purifying should carry out in same container.Promptly, most preferred method is, have after zeolite granular bed that appropriate size distributes forms in a container or pillar, flowing through inert gas heat-treats, zeolite cools off not taking out under container or the pillar then, and will comprise that the admixture of gas of Nitrogen trifluoride introduces the zeolite granular bed.Container or pillar can be made of common material, as stainless steel, and copper, nickel, iron, or the like.
As mentioned above, after finishing heat treatment, zeolite is cooled off naturally or force cool to room temperature (25 ℃) or low temperature more.During cooling, must avoid moisture to enter zeolite granular.
According to the present invention, use the preliminary treatment synthetic zeolite to carry out Nitrogen trifluoride and make with extra care by following four steps.
At first, Nitrogen trifluoride and carbon tetrafluoride mist are introduced in the pillar, have wherein filled hot pretreated and through alkaline-earth metal ions exchange and impregnated zeolite 3A, 4A or 5A make NF 3Be adsorbed onto on the zeolite molecular sieve.
When the admixture of gas that comprises Nitrogen trifluoride saw through, the temperature range of pillar should be at-100 to 50 ℃, preferred-50 to 30 ℃.More preferably gas permeation temperature is lower, still, because practical operation can not be lower than-129 ℃, NF 3Boiling point, make with extra care under-100 ℃ or higher temperature and carry out.Be higher than 50 ℃, then require unnecessary thermal source.
For the mist that comprises Nitrogen trifluoride is passed through, inert gas can be used as carrier.Any gas, only otherwise and NF 3Or the zeolite reaction, all can use.The example of the inert gas that can together use with the target mist comprises nitrogen, helium, neon, argon, and xenon.Inert gas preferably use amount is based on NF 3, CF 4With 20 to 80vol% of the inert gas cumulative volume of introducing.
As for the zeolite bed, preferred diameter is 1 to 50cm and highly is 5 to 200cm.When admixture of gas passed through the zeolite bed, admixture of gas preferred flow speed was 1 to 25g/cm 2Hr, pressure are 1 to 10kg/cm 2According to the present invention, the NF that obtains through this process for purification 3The CF that gas has 4Content is 0 to 30ppm.
Secondly, use the NF of blowing method to optionally adsorbing 3Collect.Zeolite purges with inert gas.For this reason, inert gas is with 1 to 100g/cm 2The mass velocity of hr is preferably with 30 to 60g/cm 2The mass velocity of hr is by the zeolite bed.Any gas, only otherwise and NF 3React with zeolite, all can be used for NF 3Collection, example has nitrogen, helium, neon, argon, and xenon.Mass velocity is defined as linear velocity and multiply by fluid density (linear velocity X fluid density).Passage with constant cross-section area is favourable, especially when handling gas, because, both having made that linear velocity changes with heating/cooling in purge, the mass velocity maintenance is constant.
In purge, zeolite preferably remains under-30 to 50 ℃ of temperature, is preferably 20 to 30 ℃.If temperature is too low, will the time of costing a lot of money finish purge.On the other hand, too high-temperature can make the impurity desorption during purging that is chemically bound on the adsorbent, and therefore makes the NF that obtains 3The purity of gas reduces.
The 3rd, make adsorbent reactivation by temperature increase and desorption process, therebetween, the impurity that is present in the adsorbent is removed fully in a small amount.If absorption-purge is repeated, and do not have temperature increase and desorption, adsorbent further reduces in each adsorption capacity of taking turns absorption.Therefore, temperature increase and desorption process are necessary.
Temperature increase uses moving air or inert gas to carry out, and promoting speed is 0.1 to 20 ℃/min, and preferably speed is 1 to 5 ℃/min, can rise to 500 ℃, preferably to 200 ℃.
At last, after collection process, if the NF that obtains 3The content of gas through measuring its impurity is higher than predetermined standard, then repeats for first to the 3rd step.
