Abstract
The invention relates to a method for wet chemical production of a plurality of libraries of materials consisting of solids, whereby the solids are separated from reaction mixtures in microreaction chambers on a base plate serving at the same time as substrate for the library. Depending on the material chosen for the substrate of the library, solids can be subsequently investigated in a non-destructive manner, e.g. by means of reflecting or penetrating microarea X-ray scattering.
Description
Kombinatorisches Verfahren zur Herstellung und Charakterisierung von kristallinen und amorphen Materialbibliotheken im Mikrogramm- Combinatorial process for the production and characterization of crystalline and amorphous material libraries in microgram
Maßstabscale
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur naßchemischen Herstellung von aus einer Vielzahl von Feststoffen bestehenden Materialbibliotheken, wobei die Feststoffe aus Reaktionsmischungen in Mikroreaktionskammem auf einer Bodenplatte abgeschieden werden, die zugleich als Bibliothekssubstrat dient.The present invention relates to a process for the wet chemical production of material libraries consisting of a large number of solids, the solids being separated from reaction mixtures in microreaction chambers on a base plate which also serves as a library substrate.
Der größte Engpaß in der Entwicklung neuer Wirkstoffe, Polymere und Materialien ist die Entdeckung geeigneter neuer Leitstrukturen. In Bereichen der organischen, biochemischen und pharmazeutischen Chemie hat sich die Kombinatorik als ein wichtiges Werkzeug zur Entwicklung neuer Verbindungen innerhalb weniger Jahre etabliert (z.B. Special issue: Combinatorial Chemistry, Acc. Chem. Res., 1996, 29; G. Löwe, Chemical Society Reviews, 1995, 24 (5), 309; S. R. Wilson, A. W. Czarnik, Combinatorial Chemistry - Synthesis and Applikation, John Wiley & Sons, 1997). Im Gegensatz dazu sind auf dem Gebiet der anorganischen Festkörpersynthese bzw. Materialforschung oder der technischen Katalysatorentwicklung nur wenige Beispiele bekannt, bei denen die kombinatorische Materialsuche zum Einsatz kommt. Berichtet wurde die Herstellung von Materialbibliotheken durch kombinatorische Synthesen, mit dem Ziel neue supraleitende Materialien (X.-D. Xiang et al. Science, 1995, 268, 1738), neue magnetoresistente Materialien (G. Briceno et al., Science, 1995, 270, 273) und neue lumineszierende Materialien (E. Danielson et al., Science, 1998, 279, 837) zu finden. Allen diesen Verfahren ist gemeinsam, daß die Applikation der Substanzen als dünne Filme über Elektronenstrahlverdampfung oder RF-Sputtern unter reduziertem Druck zur Bildung einer Materialbibliothek führt. Formgebend wirkt dabei eine physikalische Maske, was bereits zu Bibliotheken von bis zu 25000 Materialien geführt hat. Die erste kombinatorische Erzeugung einer Materialbibliothek auf naßchemischen Weg durch Einsatz von Ink-Jet-Technologie führte zur Entwicklung lumineszierender Materialien (D. Sun
et al., Adv. Mater. 9, 1046-1049, 1997). Nachteilig ist, daß dieses Verfahren nur bei Normaldruck und niederen Temperaturen eingesetzt werden kann.The greatest bottleneck in the development of new active ingredients, polymers and materials is the discovery of suitable new lead structures. In the fields of organic, biochemical and pharmaceutical chemistry, combinatorics has established itself as an important tool for the development of new compounds within a few years (e.g. Special issue: Combinatorial Chemistry, Acc. Chem. Res., 1996, 29; G. Löwe, Chemical Society Reviews, 1995, 24 (5), 309; SR Wilson, AW Czarnik, Combinatorial Chemistry - Synthesis and Application, John Wiley & Sons, 1997). In contrast, only a few examples are known in the field of inorganic solid-state synthesis or material research or technical catalyst development, in which the combinatorial material search is used. The production of material libraries by combinatorial syntheses has been reported, with the aim of new superconducting materials (X.-D. Xiang et al. Science, 1995, 268, 1738), new magnetoresistant materials (G. Briceno et al., Science, 1995, 270, 273) and new luminescent materials (E. Danielson et al., Science, 1998, 279, 837). All these processes have in common that the application of the substances as thin films via electron beam evaporation or RF sputtering under reduced pressure leads to the formation of a material library. A physical mask has a formative effect, which has already led to libraries of up to 25,000 materials. The first combinatorial generation of a material library using the wet-chemical method using ink-jet technology led to the development of luminescent materials (D. Sun et al., Adv. Mater. 9, 1046-1049, 1997). The disadvantage is that this method can only be used at normal pressure and low temperatures.
Viele der bisher bekannten Materialien, speziell die für die Katalyse wichtigen porösen Stoffe, können ausschließlich naßchemisch, häufig nach dem Hydrothermalverfahren (z.B. M.W. Anderson et al., Angew. Chem., 1995, 107, 1115; D. P. Serrtano et al., Microporous Materials, 4 (1995), 273) hergestellt werden. Die Verfahren unterscheiden sich dabei lediglich durch die gewählten Temperatur- und Druckbereiche, die Variation der stöchiometrischen Verhältnisse der gewählten Vorstufen sowie in der Wahl der Templatmoleküle (L. D. Rollmann, Inorganic Compounds with unusual Properties-Il, 1979, 387). Je nach Probenvolumen und Versuchsführung dauert eine Synthese unter hydrothermalen Bedingungen 2 Stunden bis mehrere Wochen. Hinzu kommen Aufarbeitung und Charakterisierung des Produktes. Wichtigste Analysenmethode ist hier die Pulverdiffraktion zur Aufklärung der Phasenstruktur. Von besonderer Bedeutung für die Anwendung solcher Materialien in Gebieten wie der Katalyse oder der Sensorik ist deren Porenarchitektur, die durch Zugabe von Templatmolekülen in der Hydrothermalsynthese steuerbar ist. Der große Zeitaufwand pro Synthese und die Vielfalt möglicher Mischoxide und Templatmoleküle hat bisher hier jede systematische und erschöpfende Untersuchung dieser Materialklassen unmöglich gemacht. Aufgrund der Vielzahl an Möglichkeiten polynärer Mischungen oxydischer Materialien sowie der generell möglichen Templatmoleküle zur Beeinflussung der Porenarchitektur solcher Stoffe ist eine Übertragung der Methoden der kombinatorischen Chemie auf die Hydrothermalsynthese attraktiv.Many of the previously known materials, especially the porous substances important for catalysis, can only be wet-chemically, often by the hydrothermal method (e.g. MW Anderson et al., Angew. Chem., 1995, 107, 1115; DP Serrtano et al., Microporous Materials , 4 (1995), 273). The methods differ only in the selected temperature and pressure ranges, the variation in the stoichiometric ratios of the selected precursors and in the choice of template molecules (L. D. Rollmann, Inorganic Compounds with unusual Properties-Il, 1979, 387). Depending on the sample volume and the test procedure, a synthesis under hydrothermal conditions takes 2 hours to several weeks. The product is also refurbished and characterized. The most important analytical method here is powder diffraction to clarify the phase structure. Of particular importance for the use of such materials in areas such as catalysis or sensor technology is their pore architecture, which can be controlled by adding template molecules in hydrothermal synthesis. The large amount of time per synthesis and the variety of possible mixed oxides and template molecules has made any systematic and exhaustive investigation of these material classes impossible. Due to the multitude of possibilities of polynary mixtures of oxidic materials as well as the generally possible template molecules for influencing the pore architecture of such substances, it is attractive to transfer the methods of combinatorial chemistry to hydrothermal synthesis.
Über die erstmalige Anwendung kombinatorischer Methoden in der Hydrothermalsynthese berichteten Akporiaye, Karlsson und Wendelbo (D. E. Akporiaye, I. M. Dahl, A. Karlsson, R. Wendelbo, Angew. Chem., 1998, 110, Nr. 5, 629; D. E. Akporiaye, I. M. Dahl, A. Karlsson, R. Wendelbo, zum Patent angemeldet, norwegische Antragsnummer 97.0788). Sie entwickelten einen Autoklaven, mit dem gleichzeitig 100 Hydrothermalsynthesen (Reaktionsvolumina von je 500 mL) bei Temperaturen bis zu 200°C durchgeführt werden können. Nachteilig ist,
daß dieses Verfahren keine Materialbibliothek erzeugt, sondern die entstandenen Feststoffe müssen den einzelnen Minireaktoren entnommen und einzeln standardmäßig charakterisiert werden. Diese Handhabung der Proben nach der Synthese erweist sich als sehr umständlich und limitiert entscheidend die Stärke dieses kombinatorischen Ansatzes.Akporiaye, Karlsson and Wendelbo (DE Akporiaye, IM Dahl, A. Karlsson, R. Wendelbo, Angew. Chem., 1998, 110, No. 5, 629; DE Akporiaye, IM Dahl) reported on the first use of combinatorial methods in hydrothermal synthesis , A. Karlsson, R. Wendelbo, patent pending, Norwegian application number 97.0788). They developed an autoclave with which 100 hydrothermal syntheses (reaction volumes of 500 mL each) can be carried out at temperatures up to 200 ° C. The disadvantage is that this process does not generate a material library, but the resulting solids must be removed from the individual mini-reactors and individually characterized by default. This handling of the samples after synthesis proves to be very cumbersome and crucially limits the strength of this combinatorial approach.
Wir haben nun gefunden, daß sich Materialbibliotheken mit minimalsten Materialmengen (Reaktionsvolumina von 2 μL oder weniger) auf naßchemischem Wege herstellen lassen. Hierzu werden in Mikroreaktionskammem die z. B. in Form von Bohrungen in eine Platte („Reaktionsplatte") eingebracht sind, eine Vielzahl von Reaktionsmischungen unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung gleichzeitig zur Reaktion gebracht, wobei sich die erzeugten Feststoffe auf der darunter befindlichen Reaktorbodenplatte abscheiden. Anschließend werden die Feststoffe von der überstehenden flüssigen Phase befreit, kalziniert und haften dann örtlich separiert auf der Bodenplatte. Durch geeignete Wahl des Materials der Reaktorbodenplatte kann diese gleichzeitig als Bibliothekssubstrat dienen. Alternativ können die Feststoffe, oder jeweils ein Teil davon mittels einer mit einer Klebeschicht versehenen Folie auf diese übertragen werden, so daß eine kopierte Materialbibliothek mit anderem Bibliothekssubstrat entsteht.We have now found that material libraries with minimal amounts of material (reaction volumes of 2 μL or less) can be produced by wet chemistry. For this purpose, the z. B. are introduced in the form of holes in a plate ("reaction plate"), brought a large number of reaction mixtures of different composition to react simultaneously, the solids produced being deposited on the reactor bottom plate underneath. The solids are then freed from the supernatant liquid phase , calcined and then adheres locally to the base plate. By suitable choice of the material of the reactor base plate, this can simultaneously serve as a library substrate. Alternatively, the solids, or a part thereof in each case, can be transferred to this by means of a film provided with an adhesive layer, so that a copied material library with another library substrate is created.
Je nach Wahl des Materials der Reaktorbodenplatte bzw. der Folie können unterschiedliche Analysenverfahren zur Charakterisierung der Feststoffe eingesetzt werden, so z. B. die reflektierende Mikrobereichs-Röntgenbeugung, wenn die Bodenplatte aus Röntgenstrahlen elastisch streuendem Material besteht, das wenig Streuuntergrund verursacht. Geeignete Materialien hierfür sind einkristalline Platten, vorzugsweise aus Si, Cu, Quarz, Rutil, Anatas, Zirkondioxid, Ge, AI, Saphir, Fe, Ti, Zr, Co, Ni, oder Sn, besonders bevorzugt eine (711) Si-Einkristallscheibe. Für eine Untersuchung mit durchdringender Mikrobereichs-Röntgenbeugung eignen sich durchstrahlbare Materialien, z. B. Kapton, Kevlar, Teflon, Mylar, PVC, Polyethylen, Polypropylen, Polycarbonat, AI, Be oder Mg in Schichtdicken < 100 μm, bevorzugt < 10 μm.
Der Reaktor zur Erzeugung der Materialbibliotheken ist schichtweise aufgebaut: Über der Reaktorbodenplatte, die als Bibliothekssubstrat dienen kann, befinden sich mindestens zwei Reaktionsplatten aus inertem Material mit Bohrungen von 0,05 - 20 mm Durchmesser, die als Mikroreaktionskammem dienen. Die oberste Reaktionsplatte besteht aus Hartmaterial, z. B. Stahl. Darüber befindet sich eine Abdichtungsschicht ohne Bohrungen, z. B. aus Teflon, darüber nochmals eine Schicht aus Hartmaterial, mit der über geeignete Vorrichtungen die Reaktorschichten zusammengepreßt und abgedichtet werden. Bei geeigneter Wahl der eingesetzten Materialien sind Reaktionstemperaturen bis ca. 1000 °C möglich; wird Teflon zur Abdichtung verwendet, sind maximal 350 °C möglich.Depending on the choice of the material of the reactor base plate or the film, different analytical methods can be used to characterize the solids. B. the reflective micro-range X-ray diffraction, if the base plate consists of X-rays elastically scattering material that causes little scattering. Suitable materials for this are single-crystalline plates, preferably made of Si, Cu, quartz, rutile, anatase, zirconium dioxide, Ge, Al, sapphire, Fe, Ti, Zr, Co, Ni, or Sn, particularly preferably a (711) Si single crystal disk. For an examination with penetrating micro-range X-ray diffraction, radiatable materials are suitable, e.g. B. Kapton, Kevlar, Teflon, Mylar, PVC, polyethylene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, Al, Be or Mg in layer thicknesses <100 microns, preferably <10 microns. The reactor for generating the material libraries is built up in layers: above the reactor base plate, which can serve as a library substrate, there are at least two reaction plates made of inert material with bores of 0.05 - 20 mm in diameter, which serve as microreaction chambers. The top reaction plate consists of hard material, e.g. B. steel. There is a sealing layer without holes, e.g. B. made of Teflon, over it again a layer of hard material with which the reactor layers are compressed and sealed using suitable devices. With a suitable choice of the materials used, reaction temperatures of up to approx. 1000 ° C are possible; if Teflon is used for sealing, a maximum of 350 ° C is possible.
Der Reaktor kann sehr klein dimensioniert werden mit extrem kleinen Reaktorvolumina und entspricht den höchsten Sicherheitsanforderungen. Die sinnvolle und praktikable Miniaturisierung der Materialbibliothek wird derzeit lediglich zum einen durch die Fokussierbarkeit des Röntgenstrahls bei der Messung der Röntgenbeugung und zum anderen durch die Dimensionierung der Flüssigdosierung limitiert. Während mit einem kleinsten Röntgenstrahl- durchmesser von 50 μm bereits 10 Proben pro mm analysiert werden könnten (= 10.000 Proben / cm2), sind bei einer dosierbaren Probenmenge von 0,5 μL nur 5 Proben pro mm bei einer Mikroreaktorhöhe von 10 mm realisierbar (= 2.500 Proben/cm2 = 2.500.000 Proben /dm2).The reactor can be dimensioned very small with extremely small reactor volumes and meets the highest safety requirements. The sensible and practicable miniaturization of the material library is currently limited on the one hand by the focusability of the X-ray beam when measuring the X-ray diffraction and on the other hand by the dimensioning of the liquid dosage. While 10 samples per mm could already be analyzed with a smallest x-ray diameter of 50 μm (= 10,000 samples / cm 2 ), only 5 samples per mm with a microreactor height of 10 mm can be realized with a dose quantity of 0.5 μL ( = 2,500 samples / cm 2 = 2,500,000 samples / dm 2 ).
Durch die Anwendung der kombinatorischen Techniken auf Syntheseoptimierungen, systematische Variationen der Zusammensetzungen und Herstellungsbedingungen lassen sich Feststoffsynthesen schnell optimieren und die Entdeckung neuer Feststoffe drastisch beschleunigen. Damit kann die Materialentwicklung im normalen Labor ohne zusätzliche Sicherheitsmaßnahmen kostengünstig durchgeführt werden. Der Reaktor läßt sich aufgrund der geringen Dimensionen auch problemlos in Handschuhboxen unter Inertgas handhaben und bei entsprechender Modifizierung mit Reaktivgasen wie Ammoniak, Chlor, Methan, Boran, HCI, Wasserstoff, Sauerstoff oder Fluor beschicken, hermetisch verschließen und so zur Synthese neuer Materialien
einsetzen.By applying combinatorial techniques to synthesis optimization, systematic variations in composition and manufacturing conditions, solid synthesis can be quickly optimized and the discovery of new solids can be drastically accelerated. This allows material development in the normal laboratory to be carried out cost-effectively without additional safety measures. Due to its small dimensions, the reactor can also be easily handled in glove boxes under inert gas and, with appropriate modification, can be charged with reactive gases such as ammonia, chlorine, methane, borane, HCl, hydrogen, oxygen or fluorine, hermetically sealed and thus used to synthesize new materials deploy.
Eine automatisierte Untersuchung aller Feststoffe einer so hergestellten Materialbibliothek ist z. B. durch die Phasenidentifikation der einzelnen Materialien mit Hilfe des kommerziellen GADDS-Mikrodiffraktometers der Fa. Bruker-AXS (M. Schuster, H. Goebel, Appl. Phys. 28 (1995) A270-A275; H. Goebel, PCT Int. Appl. WO 9522758 A1 ) möglich. Durch dieses Konzept wird die direkte Identifizierung der gebildeten Substanzen ermöglicht. Eine gesonderte Probenpräparation für die Messung entfällt. Neben der Phasenidentifikation durch die zerstörungsfreie Mikrobereichsröntgenbeugung steht die komplette Bibliothek für weitere Untersuchungen wie katalytische Aktivität über Wärmdifferenzbilder (Maier, Holzwarth, DE A19757 754.7 vom 23.12.97), Lumineszenz, Magnetwiderstand und andere Charakterisierungen zur Verfügung.An automated examination of all solids in a material library produced in this way is e.g. B. by the phase identification of the individual materials using the commercial GADDS microdiffractometer from Bruker-AXS (M. Schuster, H. Goebel, Appl. Phys. 28 (1995) A270-A275; H. Goebel, PCT Int. Appl WO 9522758 A1) possible. This concept enables direct identification of the substances formed. There is no separate sample preparation for the measurement. In addition to the phase identification through the non-destructive micro-area X-ray diffraction, the complete library is available for further investigations such as catalytic activity via thermal difference images (Maier, Holzwarth, DE A19757 754.7 from December 23, 1997), luminescence, magnetic resistance and other characterizations.
Das Verfahren bezieht sich im besonderen auf die Darstellung oder Abscheidung von kristallinen und amorphen Feststoffen aus der flüssigen Phase wie Lösungen, Emulsionen, Suspensionen oder Solen. Geeignet sind vor allem die Bereiche der Sol-Gel-Synthese (C.J. Brinker, G.W. Scherrer "Sol-Gel-Science, the Physics and Chemistry of the Sol-Gel-Process", Academic Press, New York 1990), Hydrothermalsynthesen (Kirk-Othmer (3.) 6, 321), Hydrometallurgie, Zersetzung von präkeramischen Stoffen zur Erzeugung von Hartstoffen (D. Segal, Chemical Synthesis of Advanced Ceramic Materials, Cambridge University Press, New York 1989) und Polymerisationen.The method relates in particular to the preparation or deposition of crystalline and amorphous solids from the liquid phase, such as solutions, emulsions, suspensions or sols. The areas of sol-gel synthesis (CJ Brinker, GW Scherrer "Sol-Gel Science, the Physics and Chemistry of the Sol-Gel Process", Academic Press, New York 1990), hydrothermal syntheses (Kirk- Othmer (3.) 6, 321), hydrometallurgy, decomposition of preceramic materials to produce hard materials (D. Segal, Chemical Synthesis of Advanced Ceramic Materials, Cambridge University Press, New York 1989) and polymerizations.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren eignet sich z. B. zur Entdeckung neuer Materialien auf dem Gebiet der anorganischen Feststoffe, insbesondere auf dem Gebiet der Mischoxide, Mischcarbide, Mischnitride und Mischboride. Diese Stoffe finden Anwendung auf vielen Gebieten des tägliche Lebens und der industriellen Produktion als Leitstrukturen für Katalysatoren, Lichtleiter, Beschichtungen, Halbleiter, Supraleiter, ferromagnetische Stoffe, magnetische Widerstände, optische Materialien, Hartstoffe, lumineszierende und fluoreszierende Materialien, Sensoren, NLO-Materialien, Spezialwerkstoffe und vieles
mehr. Insbesondere ist die Substanzklasse kristalliner, poröser Materialien, wie die der Zeolithe oder der amorphen porösen Mischoxide, Mischcarbide oder Mischnitride, von großem Interesse für die Industrie. Sie werden als Katalysatoren zur Ölraffination in der Petrochemie ebenso wie zu Herstellung von Pharmaka, Fein- und Großchemikalen technisch eingesetzt. Eine breite Vielfalt von Oxidationsreaktionen wird von ihnen katalysiert: aromatische Hydroxy- lierung, Olefin-Epoxidation, Keton-Ammoximation, Alkoholoxidation und Alkanoxyfunktionalisierung, um nur einige Beispiele zu nennen. Ähnlich vielversprechend sind die stabilen amorphen Mischoxide, deren Eigenschaften gleichermaßen bedeutend sind wie die der kristallinen Stoffe, deren Herstellung aber meist einfacher ist als die der kristallinen wohldefinierten Materialien.The inventive method is suitable for. B. for the discovery of new materials in the field of inorganic solids, in particular in the field of mixed oxides, mixed carbides, mixed nitrides and mixed borides. These materials are used in many areas of daily life and industrial production as lead structures for catalysts, light guides, coatings, semiconductors, superconductors, ferromagnetic materials, magnetic resistors, optical materials, hard materials, luminescent and fluorescent materials, sensors, NLO materials, special materials and a lot more. In particular, the substance class of crystalline, porous materials, such as that of the zeolites or the amorphous porous mixed oxides, mixed carbides or mixed nitrides, is of great interest to industry. They are used industrially as catalysts for oil refining in petrochemicals as well as for the production of pharmaceuticals, fine and large chemicals. They catalyze a wide variety of oxidation reactions: aromatic hydroxylation, olefin epoxidation, ketone ammoximation, alcohol oxidation and alkanoxy functionalization, to name just a few examples. The stable amorphous mixed oxides are similarly promising, their properties are just as important as those of crystalline substances, but their production is usually simpler than that of crystalline, well-defined materials.

Die „Mischung" gibt dabei das molare Verhältnis der eingesetzten Metallalkoxide (und somit der oxidischen Materialien im sich bildenden Produkt) zum eingesetzten Templatmolekül wieder. Als Quellen für SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2 und AI2O3 wurden Tetraethoxsilan (Si(OEt)4, TEOS), Ti(OEt)4, Ti(O'Pr)4 oder Ti(OnPr)4, Zr(OnPr)4 und AI(OsecBu)3 verwendet.

The "mixture" shows the molar ratio of the metal alkoxides used (and thus the oxidic materials in the product being formed) to the template molecule used. As sources for SiO 2 , TiO 2 , ZrO 2 and AI 2 O 3 became tetraethoxysilane (Si (OEt) 4 , TEOS), Ti (OEt) 4 , Ti (O'Pr) 4 or Ti (O n Pr) 4 , Zr (O n Pr) 4 and AI (O sec Bu) 3. Since after the evaporation of the alcohols the externally presented samples were filled up to 7.5 mL with distilled water, an excess of water: metal = 40: 1 is present in all samples for hydrothermal synthesis.

Holes A1 - G3 (Fig. 2) are filled with 1 to 2 μL of the batches from Table 1. The “Mixture” represents the molar ratio of the metal alkoxides used (and thus the oxidic materials in the product being formed) to the template molecule used.

Die Reaktion erfolgt im geschlossenen Reaktor bei einer Temperatur von 200°C über einen Zeitraum von 36 h.The reaction takes place in a closed reactor at a temperature of 200 ° C over a period of 36 h.
Nachbehandlung der Materialbibliothek:Post-treatment of the material library:
Nach der Reaktion erfolgt das Abheben der oberen Stahl- und Teflonplatte, die Produkte in den Mikroreaktionskammem werden von der Mutterlauge durch Entfernen der überstehenden Flüssigkeit mittels herkömmlicher Techniken, wie z.B. poröser Magnesiastäbchen, abgetrennt. Dies erfolgt idealerweise natürlich mittels entsprechender Werkzeuge in einem Arbeitsgang. Im Anschluß daran werden die Substanzen mehrfach mit 2 μL dest. Wasser auf dieselbe Weise gewaschen. Danach kann der offene Reaktor mit den Produkten getrocknet und bei Verwendung von Teflon als Reaktorplatte bis maximal 350 °C kalziniert, vorzugsweise bei 130°C, werden, was zu einer guten Haftung der entstandenen Feststoffe auf dem Reaktorboden führt. Nach Abnahme der beiden Reaktionsplatten aus Stahl und dem Tefloneinsatz kann die so entstandene Materialbibliothek (ursprüngliche Bodenplatte) weiterbehandelt oder untersucht werden. Im Falle der hier angestrebten Zeolithsynthese wurde die Materialbibliothek bei 600°C für 10 h in einem Ofen getempert. Falls die Produkte in vertikaler Anordnung analysiert werden sollen, kann die Haftung der Proben durch Aufsprühen eines geeigneten amorphen Lackes auf der Bibliothek verbessert werden. Dieser läßt sich anschließend bei erhöhten Temperaturen wieder abdampfen bzw. oxidativ entfernen.After the reaction, the upper steel and Teflon plate are lifted off, the products in the microreaction chambers are removed from the mother liquor by removing the supernatant liquid using conventional techniques, e.g. porous magnesia stick, separated. Ideally, of course, this is done in one operation using appropriate tools. Following this, the substances are washed several times with 2 μL dist. Washed water in the same way. The open reactor with the products can then be dried and, if Teflon is used as the reactor plate, calcined to a maximum of 350 ° C., preferably at 130 ° C., which leads to good adhesion of the solids formed to the reactor base. After removing the two steel reaction plates and the Teflon insert, the resulting material library (original base plate) can be further processed or examined. In the case of the zeolite synthesis sought here, the material library was annealed in an oven at 600 ° C. for 10 h. If the products are to be analyzed in a vertical arrangement, the adhesion of the samples can be improved by spraying a suitable amorphous lacquer on the library. This can then be evaporated again at elevated temperatures or removed by oxidation.
Identifizierung der Feststoffe:Identification of the solids:
Die Identifizierung der Phasen der entstandenen Produkte erfolgte mit einemThe phases of the resulting products were identified with a
GADDS-Mikrobereichsröntgendiffraktometer mit Göbelspiegel und einem HI-
STAR-Detektor. Die Si-Platte wurde auf einem xyz-Probentisch befestigt und anschließend, nach Eingabe der Rasterparameter und Speicherung der zu messenden Punkte, vollautomatisch in Reflexion gemessen. Die Pulverdiffrak- togramme wurden mit einem 500μm-Kollimator integral über die gesamte „spot"- Fläche aufgenommen, mittels gebogener Göbelspiegel ist eine Fokussierung des Röntgenstrahls bis auf 50μm mit hoher Röntgenintensität möglich. Somit sind einzelne Partikel im Mikrometer-Bereich einer röntgenanalytischen Untersuchung zugänglich. Unter den gewählten Meßbedingungen werden keine Reflexe des Siliziumprobenträgers gefunden. Bei Verwendung einer dünnen Folie als Reaktorboden oder beim Übertragen der Bibliothek auf eine dünne Folie, die mit einer Klebschicht versehen ist, läßt sich das Diffraktogramm auch im Transmissionsmodus aufzeichnen. Die erhaltenen Diffraktogramme werden zweckmäßigerweise zur späteren Auswertung abgespeichert und können von Hand oder vollautomatisch mit Vergleichsbibliotheken identifiziert werden.GADDS micro-range X-ray diffractometer with Göbel mirror and a HI STAR detector. The Si plate was attached to an xyz sample table and then, after entering the grid parameters and storing the points to be measured, measured automatically in reflection. The powder diffractograms were recorded integrally over the entire "spot" area with a 500μm collimator. The X-ray beam can be focused to 50μm with high X-ray intensity by means of a curved Göbel mirror. Individual particles in the micrometer range are therefore accessible for X-ray analysis. No reflections from the silicon sample carrier are found under the selected measurement conditions .. If a thin film is used as the reactor bottom or if the library is transferred to a thin film which is provided with an adhesive layer, the diffractogram can also be recorded in the transmission mode later evaluation saved and can be identified manually or fully automatically with comparison libraries.
Die Auswertung der Diffraktogramme ergab, daß die in Abb.2 grau unterlegten Punkte kristalline Anteile, während alle nicht unterlegten Punkte amorphe Materialien enthalten. Die Struktur der kristallinen Phasen wurde durch Vergleich ihrer Diffraktogramme mit einer Diffraktogrammbibliothek identifiziert. Die Reaktionsmischungen zur Erzeugung der Feststoffe in den Punkten A1 und F1 entsprechen der klassischen Synthese. In Abb. 3 wird die Pulveraufnahme des konventionell erzeugten Zeolithen (oben) mit den Diffraktogrammen der Punkte A1 und F1 verglichen. Die Abbildung belegt, daß mit Mikrogramm- mengen der Materialbibliothek das identische Material erzeugt wurde wie in der konventionellen Synthese.
The evaluation of the diffractograms showed that the dots with a gray background in Fig. 2 contain crystalline components, while all the dots not highlighted contain amorphous materials. The structure of the crystalline phases was identified by comparing their diffractograms with a diffractogram library. The reaction mixtures for producing the solids in points A1 and F1 correspond to the classic synthesis. In Fig. 3 the powder uptake of the conventionally produced zeolite (top) is compared with the diffractograms of points A1 and F1. The figure shows that the same material as in conventional synthesis was generated with microgram quantities from the material library.
