Definitions
- the present invention provides a highly hard and highly active Ti-Cu based alloy suitable for use as a catalyst material capable of catalyzing, for example, hydrogenation of carbon monoxide.
- Catalysts for use in the reaction in which carbon monoxide is hydrogenated to produce hydrocarbons and water have pretty widely been investigated, which include ruthenium-bearing alumina and Ti-Cu based alloy catalysts.
- ruthenium-bearing alumina and Ti-Cu based alloy catalysts have pretty widely been investigated, which include ruthenium-bearing alumina and Ti-Cu based alloy catalysts.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a Ti-Cu based alloy suitable for use as a catalyst material having increased catalytic activity and improved mechanical properties by further refining the size of the microcrystalline structure and stabilizing the presence thereof in the Ti-Cu based alloy.
- a Ti-Cu based alloy catalyst material having a composition including at least one element selected from the group consisting of V, Ni, Zr, Cr, Mn, Fe and Co as a partial substitute element for Ti and/or Cu in a composition represented by the general formula Ti 100-a Cu a , wherein "a" is, in atomic %, 30 ⁇ a ⁇ 50, 0.1 to 20 atomic % in the general formula Ti 100-a Cu a being substituted with said at least one element, in which a fine Ti-Cu intermetallic compound having a mean particle size of 10 nm or less is uniformly precipitated in an amorphous phase and/or an ⁇ -Ti matrix.
- the above intermetallic compound is contained in the alloy catalyst in an amount of 5 to 90% by volume.
- a process for producing the aforestated Ti-Cu based alloy catalyst material which comprises preparing an alloy having the above-specified Ti 100-a Cu a composition in which 0.1 to 20 atomic % thereof is substituted with at least one element selected from the group consisting of V, Ni, Zr, Cr, Mn, Fe and Co, the alloy having an amorphous phase and/or ⁇ -Ti matrix; and heating the alloy at a temperature ranging from the transformation temperature T x of a non-equilibrium phase minus 50 K (i.e., T x - 50 K) to the transformation temperature T x plus 100 K (i.e., T x + 100 K) so as to precipitate a fine Ti-Cu intermetallic compound in the matrix.
- the transformation temperature T x of a non-equilibrium phase is referred to "transformation temperature" or "T x " unless otherwise specified.
- Fig. 1 is a graph indicating the relationship between the particle size of the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 and the reaction rate measured in the hydrogenation of CO.
- Fig. 2 is a graph indicating the relationship between the volume percentage of the intermetallic compound contained in the same alloy as in Fig. 1 and the reaction rate measured in the hydrogenation of CO.
- Fig. 3 is a graph indicating the relationship between the heat treatment temperature applied in preparing the same alloy as in Fig. 1 and the particle size of the intermetallic compound.
- Fig. 4 is a graph indicating the relationship between the heat treatment time taken in the heat treatment of the same alloy as in Fig. 1 at 400°C and the particle size of the intermetallic compound.
- Fig. 5 is a micrograph showing the crystalline structure of the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Zr3 obtained by the present invention.
- Fig. 6 is a micrograph showing the crystalline structure of the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 obtained by the present invention.
- Ti and/or Cu in the Ti 100-a Cu a composition is partially substituted with at least one additional element selected from the group consisting of V, Ni, Zr, Cr, Mn, Fe and Co in an amount of 0.1 to 20 atomic % of the composition.
- fine particles of Ti-Cu intermetallic compound having a mean particle size of 10 nm or less are uniformly precipitated throughout an amorphous phase and/or ⁇ -Ti matrix.
- Fig. 1 shows a graph indicating the relationship between the particle size of the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 and the reaction rate measured in the hydrogenation of CO.
- the intermetallic compound be contained in the matrix in an amount of 5 to 90% by volume.
- the amount is less than 5% by volume, not only is it too small to cause the resultant catalyst to exhibit desired catalytic activity but also the mechanical strength of the alloy catalyst is likely to be poorer than in the range of 5 to 90% by volume.
- the amount of the intermetallic compound exceeds 90% by volume, not only is it too large to cause the resultant catalyst to have desired catalytic activity improvement but also the activity lowering by sintering is likely to occur during the use of the catalyst.
- Fig. 2 shows a graph indicating the relationship between the volume percentage of the intermetallic compound contained in the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 and the reaction rate measured in the hydrogenation of CO.
- the matrix may be an amorphous phase, a fine Ti matrix phase or a phase of a mixture thereof.
- the matrix is an amorphous phase, a structure in which fine Ti crystals and a Ti-Cu intermetallic compound have been precipitated would result.
- the matrix consists of fine Ti crystals, a structure in which a Ti-Cu intermetallic compound has been precipitated therein would result.
- the above alloy having an amorphous phase and/or ⁇ -Ti matrix may be prepared by rapid solidification in which the cooling rate is 104 to 106 K/sec.
- the cooling rate is lower than 104 K/sec, any alloy having the composition according to the present invention and having the desired matrix cannot be obtained.
- the cooling rate exceeding 106 K/sec cannot be attained by any industrial quenching means utilizing the currently available liquid quenching, etc.
- the heat treatment for precipitating a Ti-Cu intermetallic compound must be conducted at a temperature ranging from the transformation temperature T x minus 50 K to the transformation temperature T x plus 100 K.
- the transformation temperature is the crystallization temperature of the amorphous phase.
- the temperature is lower than the transformation temperature T x minus 50 K, it is hard to attain precipitation of the Ti-Cu intermetallic compound which effectively acts in the catalytic activity desired in the present invention, so that the heat treatment takes a prolonged period of time.
- such a heat treatment is not practical and makes it difficult to form the intermetallic compound at a desirable volume percentage.
- Fig. 3 shows a graph indicating the relationship between the heat treatment temperature applied in preparing the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 and the particle size of the intermetallic compound.
- Fig. 4 shows a graph indicating the relationship between the heat treatment time taken in the heat treatment of the alloy of Ti 48.5 Cu 48.5 Mn3 at 400°C and the particle size of the intermetallic compound.
- the heat treatment time be at least 0.01 hr.
- the heating must be conducted at a temperature of at least T x plus 100 K for obtaining effective particle size. It is industrially difficult to achieve particle size control by uniformly heating within the above short period of time.
- the reason for limiting the substitution with at least one additional element in the Ti 100-a Cu a composition to 0.1 to 20 atomic % is that an amorphous phase and/or ⁇ -Ti matrix required to form the desired microcrystalline structure can be obtained by the limitation, and that, outside the above range, it is difficult to stably obtain such a matrix.
- Heating at 400°C in a vacuum for 1 hr converts a Ti-Cu based amorphous alloy to a crystalline structure of Ti-Cu intermetallic compound phase having a coarse particle size as large as about 1 to 2 ⁇ m.
- the addition of the above additional element to the amorphous alloy suppresses the growth of crystal grains, so that a crystalline structure results which has a size of about 1/10 to 1/1000 of that of the crystalline structure formed when no such additional element is added.
- This crystalline structure is a Ti-Cu intermetallic compound phase corresponding to the respective compositional proportions of Ti and Cu.
- the refining of the crystalline structure as indicated above catalytically activates and improves the properties of the alloy to thereby render the same excellent as a catalyst material.
- An alloy having a given composition was prepared by the use of an arc melting furnace.
- the alloy was inserted into a silica tube having a small opening at its tip, and heated to melt the alloy.
- the silica tube was placed just above a 200-mm roll, and the molten alloy was injected through the small opening of the silica tube under an argon pressure of 0.7 kg/cm2 while rotating the roll at a speed as high as 4000 rpm so as to cause the injected alloy to contact the roll surface, thereby effecting quench solidification of the alloy.
- a thin ribbon having a width of about 1 mm was obtained.
- the thin ribbon was heated at 400°C for 1 hr in a vacuum to thereby crystallize the same.
- Tables 1 and 2 show data on the catalysts in which Zr and Mn were employed as the additional elements.
- the present invention provides a Ti-Cu based alloy catalyst material which is excellent in mechanical properties and catalytic activity.
- the Ti-Cu based alloy catalyst effectively catalyzes chlorofluorocarbon decomposition, benzene hydrogenation, carbon monoxide hydrogenation, alcohol dehydration and other reactions.
