Description

  The present invention relates to a nuclear reactor structural material such as a nuclear reactor shroud accommodated in a nuclear reactor.

In light water reactors that use water as a coolant, most of the nuclear reactor structural materials that make up the reactor come into contact with high-temperature water containing O ₂ and H ₂ O ₂ that are generated by the water splitting action of radiation. Corrosion or stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of the reactor structural material due to them is a problem.

  In addition, such corrosion or stress corrosion cracking is a portion where the reactor structure is welded (hereinafter referred to as a welded portion) or a portion where different metals are in contact by screwing or the like (hereinafter referred to as a dissimilar metal contact portion). ) Is particularly problematic. The reason why corrosion or stress corrosion cracking is likely to occur in the welded part is that the welded part becomes unstable material due to the influence of heat, such as coarsening of the metal structure, and the welded part. In this case, it is considered that tensile residual stress is generated under the influence of heat during welding. On the other hand, the reason why corrosion and stress corrosion cracking are likely to occur at the dissimilar metal connection part is that the galvano potential of each metal is different, so that a local battery can be formed at the dissimilar metal contact part, which increases the corrosion potential on the base metal side. This is considered to be because it is easy (because it is an anode reaction that emits electrons).

  If such corrosion or stress corrosion cracking occurs, it may be possible to repair or replace the reactor structural material where the corrosion or stress corrosion cracking has occurred. In the present situation, it is impossible to repair or replace the reactor structural material.

Therefore, various methods have been proposed for preventing corrosion or stress corrosion cracking of the reactor structural material due to O ₂ and H ₂ O ₂ (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3). Reactor structure materials having improved corrosion resistance by providing a semiconductor layer such as titanium oxide having corrosion resistance on the surface of austenitic stainless steel or the like used as a reactor structure material have been proposed (for example, Patent Documents 4 to 4). 10).

  However, these semiconductor layers such as titanium oxide have a problem that they cannot be used for a long time because of their low durability such as peelability. In addition, when a semiconductor layer such as titanium oxide is peeled off, there is a problem that stress corrosion cracking occurs in which a crack is generated in the material due to the interaction between tensile stress and corrosion, and the crack progresses with time. It was.

  First, a multifunctional material having a multifunctional layer that can be used in the present invention will be described.

  The first multifunctional material used in the present invention has a surface layer made of titanium, a titanium alloy, a titanium alloy oxide, or a titanium oxide at a high temperature using a combustion flame of a gas mainly composed of hydrocarbon. It is obtained by heat treatment, carbon is doped in a Ti-C bond state, durability (high hardness, scratch resistance, wear resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), heat resistance) The surface layer has a multifunctional layer composed of a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer that is excellent in function and functions as a visible light responsive photocatalyst.

  That is, the first multifunctional material used in the present invention has at least a surface layer composed of a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer and is doped with the carbon in a Ti-C bond state, and has excellent durability and a visible light response type. It has a multi-functional layer that functions as a photocatalyst.

  The first multifunctional material used in the present invention uses, for example, a gas combustion flame mainly composed of hydrocarbons on the surface of a substrate whose surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide. And can be produced by heat treatment at a high temperature. In other words, this results in a structural member in which a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is integrally formed on the surface of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide, which is the surface layer of the substrate, and the surface is excellent in durability and visible. It becomes the 1st multifunctional material which functions as a photoresponsive photocatalyst. The substrate whose at least surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide may be composed of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide as a whole, or It is comprised by the surface part formation layer and core material which consist of titanium, a titanium alloy, a titanium alloy oxide, or a titanium oxide, and those materials may differ. That is, in this case, a structural member in which a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is integrally formed on the surface of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide, or titanium oxide, which is the surface layer of the composite material substrate, is formed on the surface. However, it is good also as a 1st multifunctional material which is excellent in durability and functions as a visible light responsive photocatalyst.

  If at least the surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide and the surface portion forming layer and the core material are different from each other, the thickness of the surface portion forming layer The thickness may be the same as the thickness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer to be formed (that is, the entire surface portion forming layer becomes a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer) or may be thick (that is, the thickness of the surface portion forming layer). Part of the direction becomes a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer, and part remains as it is). The material of the core is not particularly limited as long as it does not burn, melt, or deform during the heat treatment in the manufacturing method of the first invention. For example, iron, iron alloy, non-ferrous alloy, ceramics, other ceramics, high temperature heat resistant glass, etc. can be used as the core material. Examples of the substrate composed of such a thin film-like surface layer and a core material include, for example, a method of sputtering, vapor deposition, thermal spraying, etc., on a surface of the core material made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide, or titanium oxide. Or a film formed by applying a commercially available titanium oxide sol on the surface of the core material by spray coating, spin coating or dipping.

  Various known titanium alloys can be used as the titanium alloy, and are not particularly limited. For example, Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-6Al-6V-2Sn, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo, Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al, Ti-7Al-4Mo, Ti-5Al-2.5Sn, Ti- 6Al-5Zr-0.5Mo-0.2Si, Ti-5.5Al-3.5Sn-3Zr-0.3Mo-1Nb-0.3Si, Ti-8Al-1Mo-1V, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr- 2Mo, Ti-5Al-2Sn-2Zr-4Mo-4Cr, Ti-11.5Mo-6Zr-4.5Sn, Ti-15V-3Cr-3Al-3Sn, Ti-15Mo-5Zr-3Al, Ti-15Mo-5Zr, Ti-13V-11Cr-3Al or the like can be used.

  In the production of the first multifunctional material, a gas combustion flame mainly composed of hydrocarbons, particularly acetylene can be used, and it is particularly desirable to use a reducing flame. When using a fuel with a low hydrocarbon content, the carbon doping amount is insufficient or none, resulting in insufficient hardness and insufficient photocatalytic activity under visible light. It becomes. In the production of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention, the hydrocarbon-based gas means a gas containing at least 50% by volume of hydrocarbon, for example, containing at least 50% by volume of acetylene, As appropriate, it means a gas mixed with air, hydrogen, oxygen or the like. In the production of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention, the gas containing hydrocarbon as a main component preferably contains 50% by volume or more of acetylene, and the hydrocarbon is most preferably 100% of acetylene. When unsaturated hydrocarbons, especially acetylene having a triple bond, are used, in the process of combustion, especially in the reducing flame part, the unsaturated bond part decomposes to form an intermediate radical substance. It is considered that carbon doping is likely to occur because of its high activity.

  In the production of the first multifunctional material of the present invention, when the surface layer of the substrate to be heat-treated is titanium or a titanium alloy, oxygen that oxidizes the titanium or titanium alloy is necessary, and air or It needs to contain oxygen.

  In the production of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention, the surface of the substrate whose surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide is used with a gas combustion flame mainly composed of hydrocarbons. In this case, the surface of such a substrate is mainly composed of hydrocarbons even if it is heated at a high temperature by directly applying a combustion flame of a gas mainly composed of hydrocarbons to the surface of the substrate. Heat treatment may be performed at a high temperature in a combustion gas atmosphere of a component gas, and this heat treatment may be performed in a furnace, for example. When heat treatment is performed at a high temperature by directly applying a combustion flame, the above-described fuel gas may be burned in a furnace and the combustion flame may be applied to the surface of the substrate. When heat treatment is performed in a combustion gas atmosphere at a high temperature, the above fuel gas is burned in a furnace and the high-temperature combustion gas atmosphere is used. In addition, when at least the surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide in a powder form, such powder is introduced into the flame and heated by being retained in the flame for a predetermined time. By treating or maintaining such powder in a fluidized hot combustion gas in a fluidized bed for a predetermined time, the entire particle is carbon doped titanium oxide doped with carbon in Ti-C bonds. Alternatively, a powder having a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which carbon is doped in a Ti—C bond state can be obtained.

  Regarding the heat treatment, the surface temperature of the substrate is 900 to 1500 ° C., preferably 1000 to 1200 ° C., and a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with carbon in a Ti—C bond state is formed as the surface layer of the substrate. It is necessary to heat-treat. In the case of the heat treatment in which the surface temperature of the substrate ends below 900 ° C., the durability of the substrate having the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer obtained is insufficient and the photocatalytic activity under visible light is also insufficient. On the other hand, in the case of heat treatment in which the surface temperature of the substrate exceeds 1500 ° C., the ultrathin film peels off from the surface of the substrate during cooling after the heat treatment, and the durability (high hardness, The effect of scratch resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), heat resistance) cannot be obtained. Moreover, even in the case of the heat treatment in which the surface temperature of the substrate is in the range of 900 to 1500 ° C., if the heat treatment time becomes long, the ultrathin film is peeled off from the surface of the substrate during cooling after the heat treatment, Since the effects of durability (high hardness, scratch resistance, wear resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), heat resistance), which are important functions of the first multifunctional material, cannot be obtained, cooling after heat treatment Sometimes it is necessary to have a time that does not cause peeling on the surface of the substrate. That is, the heat treatment time is sufficient to make the surface layer a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with carbon in a Ti-C bond state. It must be a time that does not result in peeling of the thin film. This heat treatment time is correlated with the heating temperature, but is preferably about 400 seconds or less.

  In the production of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention, carbon containing 0.3 to 15 at%, preferably 1 to 10 at% of carbon is Ti—C bond by adjusting the heating temperature and heat treatment time. A carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped in a state can be obtained relatively easily. When the carbon doping amount is small, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is transparent, and as the carbon doping amount increases, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer becomes translucent and opaque. Therefore, it is excellent in durability (high hardness, scratch resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), heat resistance) by forming a transparent carbon-doped titanium oxide layer on a transparent plate-shaped core material and A transparent plate functioning as a visible light responsive photocatalyst can be obtained, and durability (high hardness, scratch resistance, anti-resistance properties) can be obtained by forming a transparent carbon-doped titanium oxide layer on a plate having a colored pattern on the surface. A decorative board that is excellent in wear resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), heat resistance) and functions as a visible light responsive photocatalyst can be obtained. In the case where at least the surface layer is made of titanium, titanium alloy, titanium alloy oxide or titanium oxide, and the substrate is composed of the surface portion forming layer and the core material, and the thickness of the surface portion forming layer is 500 nm or less. When heated to the vicinity of the melting point of the surface portion forming layer, a large number of small island-like undulations floating in the sea are generated on the surface and become translucent.

  In the first multifunctional material having a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with carbon in a Ti—C bond state, the thickness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is preferably 10 nm or more, and has high hardness and scratch resistance. In order to achieve the properties and wear resistance, the thickness is more preferably 50 nm or more. When the thickness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is less than 10 nm, the resulting multifunctional material having the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer tends to be insufficient. The upper limit of the thickness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer is not particularly limited, although it is necessary to consider the cost and the effect achieved.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention is a conventional chemically modified titanium oxide or a titanium compound Ti—O—X doped with various conventionally proposed atoms or anions X. Unlike titanium oxide containing, the carbon is contained in a relatively large amount, and doped carbon is contained in a Ti-C bond state. As a result, it is considered that mechanical strength such as scratch resistance and abrasion resistance is improved and Vickers hardness is remarkably increased. Moreover, heat resistance is also improved.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention has a Vickers hardness of 300 or more, preferably 500 or more, more preferably 700 or more, and most preferably 1000 or more. A Vickers hardness of 1000 or more is harder than that of hard chrome plating. Therefore, the first multifunctional material of the present invention can be significantly used in various technical fields in which hard chrome plating has been conventionally used.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer, which is a multifunctional layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention, responds not only to ultraviolet rays but also to visible light having a wavelength of 400 nm or more, and functions effectively as a photocatalyst. Therefore, the first multifunctional material used in the present invention can be used as a visible light responsive photocatalyst and exhibits a photocatalytic function not only outdoors but also indoors. The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention exhibits super hydrophilicity with a contact angle of 3 ° or less.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention is also excellent in chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), and after being immersed in an aqueous solution of 1M sulfuric acid and 1M sodium hydroxide for one week, When the wear resistance and photocurrent density were measured and compared with the measured values before the treatment, no significant change was observed. Incidentally, with respect to commercially available titanium oxide films, generally, the binder dissolves in acid or alkali depending on the kind thereof, so that the film peels off, and there is almost no acid resistance and alkali resistance.

  Furthermore, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the first multifunctional material used in the present invention can be used as a catalyst that also responds to radiation such as gamma rays. That is, the inventors have previously invented that a thermal spray film such as titanium oxide suppresses stress corrosion cracking, scale adhesion, etc. of the nuclear reactor structural member in response to radiation, but the first used in the present invention. Similarly, when the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of the multifunctional material 1 is used as such a radiation-responsive catalyst, the potential of the substrate can be lowered to suppress pitting corrosion, overall corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, There is an effect that scales and dirt can be decomposed by oxidizing power. It is simpler than other radiocatalyst film-forming methods, and is excellent from the viewpoint of durability such as chemical resistance (corrosion resistance) and wear resistance.

  In addition, the second multifunctional material has a specific condition in which a combustion flame of unsaturated hydrocarbon, particularly acetylene, is directly applied to the surface of a substrate having at least a surface layer made of titanium, titanium oxide, titanium alloy or titanium alloy oxide. Or by heating the surface of the substrate in a combustion exhaust gas atmosphere of an unsaturated hydrocarbon, particularly acetylene, under specific conditions, and the surface layer is made of titanium oxide or a titanium alloy oxide. A layer in which fine columns are erected is formed, and the layer in which the fine columns are erected is cut in a direction along the surface layer so that at least a part of the titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide is formed on the substrate. A member in which a layer in which a fine pillar made of is exposed is exposed, a large number of continuous narrow protrusions made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on a thin film, and a fine pillar standing on the protrusion But Both of which have a large number of protrusions made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on at least a part of the surface, both of which are useful multifunctional materials. Being a fine column that is a projection made of the titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide, and a continuous narrow projection is carbon-doped, so that the photocatalytic activity is high and functions as a visible light responsive photocatalyst, Furthermore, VOC can be easily adsorbed, has high hardness, and has excellent peeling resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance (corrosion resistance), and heat resistance.

  That is, the second multifunctional material used in the present invention has a large number of protrusions made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on at least a part of the surface. A layer in which fine columns made of titanium alloy oxide are forested is exposed, or a large number of continuous narrow projections made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on a thin film and forested on the projections Fine columns are exposed, and the protrusions, for example, the fine columns and the narrow protrusions are carbon-doped.

  The second multifunctional material used in the present invention is obtained by subjecting the surface of a substrate having at least a surface layer made of titanium, titanium oxide, a titanium alloy or a titanium alloy oxide to a heat treatment with a combustion flame of, for example, an unsaturated hydrocarbon, particularly acetylene. In the surface layer, a layer in which fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide are erected is formed, and then, for example, thermal stress, shear stress, tensile force is applied, and the tiny columns are erected The layer is cut in a direction along the surface layer, and a layer in which fine columns made of the titanium oxide or the titanium alloy oxide are forested is formed on at least a part of the substrate, usually on a large part of the substrate. By obtaining an exposed member, and a member in which a large number of continuous narrow protrusions made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on the thin film and fine columns standing on the protrusions are exposed Can be manufactured, ie A multifunctional material Both have a number of projections of at least a portion of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide on the surface, both these two is a second multifunctional material used in the present invention.

  The substrate whose at least surface layer is made of titanium, titanium oxide, titanium alloy or titanium alloy oxide, the entire substrate may be composed of titanium, titanium oxide, titanium alloy or titanium alloy oxide, Or you may be comprised by the core part which consists of a surface part formation layer which consists of titanium, a titanium oxide, a titanium alloy, or a titanium alloy oxide, and another material.

  At least the surface layer is made of titanium, titanium oxide, a titanium alloy or a titanium alloy oxide, and the substrate is composed of a surface portion forming layer made of titanium, titanium oxide, a titanium alloy or a titanium alloy oxide and a core material made of other materials. The thickness (amount) of the surface portion forming layer is equal to the amount of the layer in which fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide are formed ( That is, the entire surface portion forming layer is a layer in which fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide are erected), or may be thicker (that is, a part of the surface portion forming layer in the thickness direction is A fine column made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide becomes a forested layer, and the rest remains unchanged.) The material of the core material is not particularly limited as long as it does not burn, melt or deform during the heat treatment in the production of the second multifunctional material used in the present invention. For example, iron, iron alloy, non-ferrous alloy, glass, ceramics, or the like can be used as the core material. Examples of the substrate composed of such a thin film surface layer and a core material include, for example, a method of sputtering, vapor deposition, thermal spraying, etc., on a surface of the core material made of titanium, titanium oxide, titanium alloy or titanium alloy oxide.

The thickness of the surface layer is preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 4 μm or more.

  Various known titanium alloys can be used as the titanium alloy, and the titanium alloy is not particularly limited and can be the same as the first multifunctional material.

  In the production of the second multifunctional material used in the present invention, for example, it is desirable to use a combustion flame of a gas mainly containing an unsaturated hydrocarbon, particularly acetylene, and particularly to use a reducing flame. In the production of the multifunctional material of the present invention, a gas containing at least 50% by volume of unsaturated hydrocarbon, for example, a gas containing at least 50% by volume of acetylene and appropriately mixed with air, hydrogen, oxygen or the like is used. preferable. In the production of the second multifunctional material used in the present invention, the fuel component is most preferably 100% acetylene. When unsaturated hydrocarbons, especially acetylene having a triple bond, are used, in the process of combustion, especially in the reducing flame part, the unsaturated bond part decomposes to form an intermediate radical substance. Has a strong activity, and carbon doping is likely to occur, and doped carbon is contained in a Ti-C bond state. Thus, when carbon dope arises in a micro pillar, the hardness of a micro pillar will become high, As a result, mechanical strength, such as hardness of a multifunctional material and abrasion resistance, will improve, and heat resistance will also improve.

  In the production of the second multifunctional material used in the present invention, the surface layer is subjected to heat treatment by directly applying a combustion flame to the surface of the substrate made of titanium, titanium oxide, titanium alloy or titanium alloy oxide, or the substrate. The surface is heated in a combustion exhaust gas atmosphere. This heat treatment can be carried out, for example, by a gas burner or in a furnace.

Spray. Even if the hot intermediate is allowed to cool, thermal stress is generated, but the degree is low.

  When shearing stress is applied and the layer in which the fine pillars are erected is cut in a direction along the surface layer, for example, a relatively reverse force is applied to the front and back surfaces of the intermediate by frictional force. In addition, when a layer in which fine columns are erected is cut in a direction along the surface layer by applying a tensile force, for example, the surface and the back surface of the above intermediate body are removed from those surfaces using a vacuum suction disk or the like. Pull in the opposite direction in the vertical direction. When using only a member in which a layer in which fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide are forested is exposed on at least a part of the substrate, oxidation is performed on the intermediate thin film. A portion corresponding to a member in which a large number of continuous narrow protrusions made of titanium or a titanium alloy oxide and fine columns standing on the protrusions are exposed can be removed by polishing, sputtering, or the like.

  In a member in which a layer with fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide is exposed on at least a part of the substrate obtained as described above, the layer with fine columns is set Although the height of the layer in which the fine column stands is changed depending on the height position of the fine column cut in the direction along the surface layer, the height of the layer in which the fine column stands is generally 1 to The average thickness of the fine pillars is about 0.2 to 3 μm.

The height of the protrusion on each small piece is about 2 to 12 μm, and the height of the fine column is the height of the fine column obtained by cutting the layer in which the fine column stands in the direction along the surface layer. Although the height varies depending on the position, the height of the layer in which the fine pillars stand is generally about 1 to 5 μm, and the average thickness of the fine pillars is about 0.2 to 0.5 μm. However, a layer in which the fine columns are erected is cut in a direction along the surface layer, and depending on the conditions, there are cases where a large number of continuous narrow protrusions are exposed without the presence of the fine columns. This member can also adsorb VOCs and has a large surface area, so it has high activity as a photocatalyst. Further, this member can be used as it is or after being pulverized, and the pulverized product can easily adsorb VOC and has a large surface area, so it has high activity as a photocatalyst.

  In the second multifunctional material used in the present invention, carbon-doped fine columns made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide, a large number of continuous narrow projections, and fine columns standing on the projections are carbon-doped. Therefore, it responds not only to ultraviolet rays but also visible light having a wavelength of 400 nm or more, works particularly effectively as a photocatalyst, and can be used as a visible light responsive photocatalyst, and exhibits a photocatalytic function not only outdoors but also indoors. .

  The shape of each fine column of the layer in which the fine column made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide constituting the second multifunctional material used in the present invention stands is judged from the micrographs of FIGS. As described above, a prismatic shape, a cylindrical shape, a pyramid shape, a conical shape, an inverted pyramid shape, or an inverted conical shape, etc., which extends straight or perpendicular to the surface of the substrate, is curved or bent There are those that extend, those that branch and extend, and those that are complex. Moreover, as the whole shape, it can show by various expressions, such as a frost column shape, a raising carpet shape, a basket shape, a row column shape, and the column shape assembled with blocks. In addition, the thickness and height of the fine columns, the size of the base (bottom surface), and the like vary depending on heating conditions and the like.

  A number of continuous narrow protrusions made of titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxide and fine columns standing on the protrusions are exposed on the thin film, which is the second multifunctional material used in the present invention. As can be seen from the photomicrograph of FIG. 12, the member can be viewed as having a number of consecutive narrow protrusions appearing outside the walnut shell, pumice. It can be seen that the narrow-width protrusions are bent in the shape of a water bath or a stagnation. In addition, the shape of the fine column standing on the protrusion is the same as the shape of each fine column in the layer where the fine column on the base is standing, but the junction between the fine column and the thin film Therefore, the density of the fine columns standing on the protrusion is generally smaller than the density of the fine columns in the layer where the fine columns on the base are standing.

  The third multifunctional material used in the present invention is provided with a multifunctional layer containing titanium oxide or titanium alloy oxidized powder (hereinafter referred to as carbon-doped titanium oxide powder) doped with carbon by a technique such as coating on the surface of the substrate. It is a thing. The multifunctional layer in this case is formed by a coating agent containing carbon-doped titanium oxide and an inorganic binder. Here, examples of the inorganic binder include alkoxysilanes such as ethyl silicate, partial condensates of alkoxysilanes, and silica sols.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide powder used for such a third multifunctional material uses a titanium powder as a substrate and, as in the first multifunctional material production method, a gas containing hydrocarbon, particularly acetylene as a main component. It can be formed by heat treatment using a combustion flame or the like. In this case, when the particle size of the powder is small, it is possible to make the entire particle carbon-doped titanium oxide by heat treatment as described above. However, in this application, only the surface layer needs to be carbon-doped titanium oxide. Therefore, the particle size of the powder is not limited at all. However, considering the ease of heat treatment and the ease of production, it is preferably 15 nm or more.

  The carbon-doped titanium oxide powder can be obtained by pulverizing the fine columns of the second multifunctional material or the thin film having fine columns.

  In any case, the carbon-doped titanium oxide powder is particularly preferably one in which carbon is doped in a Ti—C bond state, and the effect thereof is as described above.

  Below, the function of the multifunctional material used by this invention is demonstrated in detail based on an Example and a comparative example.

Examples 1 to 3 (first multifunctional material)
Carbon dope in which carbon is doped in a Ti—C bond state as a surface layer by heat-treating a titanium plate having a thickness of 0.3 mm using an acetylene combustion flame so that its surface temperature is about 1100 ° C. A titanium plate having a titanium oxide layer was formed. By adjusting the heat treatment time at 1100 ° C. to 5 seconds (Example 1), 3 seconds (Example 2), and 1 second (Example 3), respectively, the amount of carbon doping and the thickness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer were reduced. Titanium plates with different carbon doped titanium oxide layers were formed.

The carbon content was calculated | required with the fluorescent-X-ray-analysis apparatus about the carbon dope titanium oxide layer with which the carbon formed in this Example 1-3 was doped in the state of Ti-C bond. Assuming the molecular structure of TiO ₂ -xCx based on the carbon content, the carbon content of Example 1 is 8 at%, TiO _1.76 C _0.24 , the carbon content of Example 2 is about 3.3 at%, and TiO _1.90. Regarding C _0.10 and Example 3, the carbon content was 1.7 at% and TiO _1.95 C _0.05 . In addition, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbon formed in Examples 1 to 3 was doped in a Ti—C bond state was superhydrophilic with a contact angle of about 2 ° with water droplets.

Comparative Example 1
A commercially available titanium oxide sol (STS-01 manufactured by Ishihara Sangyo Co., Ltd.) was spin-coated on a titanium plate having a thickness of 0.3 mm, and then a titanium plate having a titanium oxide film whose adhesion was improved by heating was formed.

Comparative Example 2
A commercially available product in which titanium oxide was spray-coated on a SUS plate was used as the substrate having the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 2.

Test Example 1 (Vickers hardness)
The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state and the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1 were subjected to indenter: Belkovic using a nanohard nesting tester (NHT) (manufactured by CSM Instruments, Switzerland). When the film hardness was measured under the conditions of type, test load: 2 mN, load unloading speed: 4 mN / min, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with carbon in the state of Ti-C bond in Example 1 had a Vickers hardness. Was a high value of 1340. On the other hand, the Vickers hardness of the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1 was 160.

  These results are shown in FIG. For reference, the literature values of the Vickers hardness of the hard chromium plating layer and nickel plating layer (Tomono, “Practical Plating Manual”, Chapter 6, Ohmsha (1971)) are also shown. It is clear that the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state has higher hardness than the nickel plating layer and the hard chromium plating layer.

Test Example 2 (Scratch resistance)
For the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state and the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1, a microscratch tester (MST) (manufactured by CSM Instruments, Switzerland) was used as an indenter: Rockwell. The scratch resistance test was performed under the conditions of (diamond), tip radius 200 μm, initial load: 0 N, final load: 30 N, load speed: 50 N / min, scratch length: 6 mm, stage speed: 10.5 mm / min. A “peeling start” load at which a small film peels off within the scratch mark and an “overall peel” load at which the film peels across the scratch mark were determined. The results were as shown in Table 1.

Test Example 3 (Abrasion resistance)
The carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state and the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1 were tested at a test temperature using a high-temperature tribometer (HT-TRM) (manufactured by CSM Instruments, Switzerland). A wear test was performed under the conditions of: room temperature and 470 ° C., ball: SiC sphere having a diameter of 12.4 mm, load: 1 N, sliding speed: 20 mm / sec, rotation radius: 1 mm, test rotation speed: 1000 rotations.

  As a result, for the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1, peeling occurred at both room temperature and 470 ° C., but for the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbon of Example 1 was doped in a Ti—C bond state, No significant trace wear was detected under both room temperature and 470 ° C conditions.

Test Example 4 (Chemical resistance (corrosion resistance))
After immersing the titanium plate having the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state in a 1M sulfuric acid aqueous solution and a 1M sodium hydroxide aqueous solution for 1 week at room temperature, When the wear resistance and the photocurrent density described below were measured, no significant difference was observed in the results before and after immersion. That is, it was confirmed that the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with the carbon of Example 1 in a Ti—C bond state has high chemical resistance (corrosion resistance).

Test Example 5 (Structure of carbon-doped titanium oxide layer doped with carbon in a Ti-C bond state)
For the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbon of Example 1 was doped in a Ti—C bond state, the acceleration voltage was 10 kV, the target was Al, and Ar ion sputtering was performed for 2700 seconds using an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS). Done and started the analysis. If this sputtering rate is 0.64 Å / s corresponding to the SiO ₂ film, the depth is about 173 nm. The result of the XPS analysis is shown in FIG. The highest peak appears when the binding energy is 284.6 eV. This is judged to be a C—H (C) bond commonly found in Cls analysis. The next highest peak is seen when the binding energy is 281.7 eV. Since the bond energy of the Ti—C bond is 281.6 eV, it is determined that C is doped as a Ti—C bond in the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of Example 1. As a result of XPS analysis at 11 points at different positions in the depth direction of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer, similar peaks appeared in the vicinity of 281.6 eV at all points.

  Ti-C bonds were also confirmed at the boundary between the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer and the substrate. Accordingly, the hardness is increased due to the Ti—C bond in the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer, and the film peeling strength is significantly increased due to the Ti—C bond at the boundary between the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer and the substrate. Is expected.

Test Example 6 (wavelength response)
The wavelength responsiveness of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbons of Examples 1 to 3 were doped in a Ti—C bond state and the titanium oxide films of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were measured using an Oriel monochromator. Specifically, a voltage of 0.3 V was applied to each layer and film between the counter electrode in a 0.05 M aqueous sodium sulfate solution, and the photocurrent density was measured.

  The result is shown in FIG. FIG. 3 shows the obtained photocurrent density jp with respect to the irradiation wavelength. The wavelength absorption edge of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbons of Examples 1 to 3 are doped in a Ti—C bond state extends to 490 nm, and the photocurrent density increases as the carbon doping amount increases. Was recognized. Although not shown here, it has been found that when the carbon doping amount exceeds 10 at%, the current density tends to decrease, and when the carbon doping amount exceeds 15 at%, the tendency becomes remarkable. Therefore, it was recognized that the carbon doping amount has an optimum value of about 1 to 10 at%. On the other hand, in the titanium oxide films of Comparative Examples 1 and 2, it was confirmed that the photocurrent density was extremely small and the wavelength absorption edge was about 410 nm.

Test example 7 (light energy conversion efficiency)
For the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbons of Examples 1 to 3 are doped in a Ti—C bond state and the titanium oxide films of Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the formula η = jp (Ews−Eapp) / I
The light energy conversion efficiency η defined by Here, Ews is the theoretical decomposition voltage of water (= 1.23 V), Eapp is the applied voltage (= 0.3 V), and I is the irradiation light intensity. The result is shown in FIG. FIG. 4 shows the light energy conversion efficiency η with respect to the irradiation light wavelength.

  As is clear from FIG. 4, the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbons of Examples 1 to 3 are doped in a Ti—C bond state has extremely high light energy conversion efficiency, and the conversion efficiency in the vicinity of a wavelength of 450 nm is a comparative example. It was recognized that the conversion efficiency in the ultraviolet region (200 to 380 nm) of the 1 and 2 titanium oxide films was superior. Further, the water decomposition efficiency of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbon of Example 1 is doped in a Ti—C bond state is about 8% at a wavelength of 370 nm, and an efficiency exceeding 10% can be obtained at 350 nm or less. I understood.

Test Example 8 (Deodorization test)
A deodorizing test was performed on the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer in which the carbons of Examples 1 and 2 were doped in a Ti-C bond state and the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1. Specifically, after acetaldehyde generally used in deodorization tests is enclosed in a 1000 ml glass container together with a substrate having a carbon-doped titanium oxide layer, the influence of concentration reduction due to initial adsorption can be ignored. Visible light was irradiated with a fluorescent lamp with a UV cut filter, and the acetaldehyde concentration was measured by gas chromatography at every predetermined irradiation time. The surface area of each film was 8.0 cm ² .

  The result is shown in FIG. FIG. 5 shows the acetaldehyde concentration with respect to the elapsed time after irradiation with visible light. The acetaldehyde decomposition rate of the carbon-doped titanium oxide layers of Examples 1 and 2 is higher than the acetaldehyde decomposition rate of the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1, and the carbon doping amount is large. It was found that the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of Example 1 having a higher energy conversion efficiency has a higher decomposition rate than the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of Example 2.

Test example 9 (antifouling test)
An antifouling test was carried out on the carbon-doped titanium oxide layer of Example 1 and the titanium oxide film of Comparative Example 1. Each coating was placed in a smoking room in the Central Research Institute of Electric Power Co., Ltd., and surface contamination after 145 days was observed. There is no direct incidence of sunlight in the smoking room.

  A photograph showing the results is shown in FIG.

The results are shown in Table 2. Moreover, the carbon dope titanium oxide layer formed in Examples 4-7 was super hydrophilicity whose contact angle with a water droplet was about 2 degrees.

  As is apparent from the data shown in Table 2, when the heat treatment was performed with the combustion gas of natural gas so that the surface temperature became 850 ° C., only a film having a Vickers hardness of 160 was obtained, but the surface temperature was 1000 ° C.

Therefore, the Cherenkov light emitted in the reactor Is irradiated everywhere in the reactor shroud 120, and corrosion and the like can be further prevented. In addition, the reactor shroud 120 having this multi-functional layer is excellent in the peeling resistance of the multi-functional layer, and the multi-functional layer is difficult to peel off, so that stress corrosion cracking can be further prevented. Furthermore, since the reactor shroud 120 having this multi-functional layer has high strength and excellent heat resistance, it is possible to construct a nuclear reactor 100 that can be operated at a higher temperature and pressure than before.

  Next, the reactor shroud 120 to which the second multifunctional material is applied by the second method or the third method is slightly inferior to that described above in terms of durability, but has high photocatalytic activity, and visible light and radiation. It functions as a responsive photocatalyst, has high hardness, excellent peeling resistance, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and radiation resistance, and also has excellent peeling resistance for multi-functional layers, so that organic matter and microorganisms attached to it The surface can be kept clean, and the surface of the surface is visible, ultraviolet, and ultraviolet as in the case where the first multifunctional member is applied by the first method or the third method. When irradiated with light or radiation (X-rays, γ-rays, β-rays, etc.), the corrosion potential of the surface is lowered by the action of electrons activated by radiation-induced surface activity. Very good reactor shroud 12 0.
