Description
本発明は、無機バインダーを使用し、有機物を使用せずに、セラミックファイバーの成形体内に無機バインダーを均一に担持して、高品質の無機質繊維成形体を製造する方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a high-quality inorganic fiber molded body by using an inorganic binder and supporting an inorganic binder uniformly in a ceramic fiber molded body without using an organic substance.
従来から、セラミックファイバーを用いた無機質繊維成形体は、融点が高く、溶融金属にも濡れにくいため、バーナータイルや炉の内張材、或いはタンディシュなどとして使用されている。この無機質繊維成形体を製造する方法として、水にセラミックファイバーを分散させたスラリーに、アルミナゾルやシリカゾルなどの無機バインダーを懸濁させ、金型を用いてファイバーを脱水しながら成形した後、乾燥する方法がある。 Conventionally, an inorganic fiber molded body using ceramic fibers has a high melting point and is hardly wetted by molten metal, and thus has been used as a burner tile, a furnace lining material, or a tundish. As a method for producing this inorganic fiber molded body, an inorganic binder such as alumina sol or silica sol is suspended in a slurry in which ceramic fibers are dispersed in water, and the fiber is molded while dehydrating using a mold, and then dried. There is a way.
しかし、無機バインダーとして使用するコロイド粒子は、乾燥時に成形体表面に移動(マイグレーション)し易いとう問題があった。即ち、濡れた状態の成形体を乾燥すると、水の蒸発によって表面の水が減少し、これに伴って成形体内部から水が表面に移動して蒸発し、最終的に乾燥する。その際、無機バインダーのコロイド粒子も水と一緒に移動するため、無機バインダーが成形体表面に濃縮される結果、成形体表面は硬くなるが、内部は柔らかくなってしまう。 However, the colloidal particles used as the inorganic binder have a problem that they easily move (migrate) to the surface of the molded body during drying. That is, when the molded body in a wet state is dried, water on the surface is reduced due to evaporation of water, and accordingly, water moves from the inside of the molded body to the surface to evaporate and finally dry. At that time, since the colloidal particles of the inorganic binder move together with the water, the inorganic binder is concentrated on the surface of the molded body. As a result, the surface of the molded body becomes hard, but the inside becomes soft.
このマイグレーションを防止する方法が、従来から種々検討されてきた。例えば、米国特許第3224927号明細書などに記載されるように、セラミックファイバーと無機バインダーのスラリーにカチオン性澱粉を添加することにより、無機バインダーであるコロイダルシリカのコロイド粒子を凝集させて繊維に固定する方法がある。しかし、この方法では、得られる成形体中に有機物が含まれるため、炉などに取り付けて加熱したときに有機物が燃焼し、煙と異臭が発生する。そのため、煙を嫌う工業炉向けには最終的に焼成工程が必要となり、焼成時間がかかるうえコストアップの原因となっていた。 Various methods for preventing this migration have been studied. For example, as described in US Pat. No. 3,224,927, colloidal silica colloidal particles, which are inorganic binders, are aggregated and fixed to the fibers by adding cationic starch to the slurry of ceramic fibers and inorganic binders. There is a way to do it. However, in this method, since an organic substance is contained in the obtained molded body, the organic substance is burned when attached to a furnace or the like and heated, and smoke and off-flavor are generated. For this reason, a firing process is finally required for industrial furnaces that do not like smoke, which takes time for firing and causes an increase in cost.
また、特開昭58−104059号公報や、特開昭60−33244号公報には、セラミックファイバーと無機バインダーであるコロイダルシリカのスラリーに、硫酸バンド(硫酸アルミニウム)などの凝結材を加えた後、高分子凝集剤のポリエチレンオキサイドを添加して、コロイダルシリカを繊維に定着させる方法が記載されている。しかし、この方法においても、高分子凝集剤を加えるので、これを除去するための焼成工程が必要であった。また、凝結剤に含まれる塩素や硫黄が炉内でガス化するため、これを処理する必要もある。 JP-A-58-104059 and JP-A-60-33244 disclose that a coagulant such as a sulfuric acid band (aluminum sulfate) is added to a slurry of ceramic fiber and colloidal silica that is an inorganic binder. A method of fixing colloidal silica to fibers by adding polyethylene oxide as a polymer flocculant is described. However, in this method as well, since a polymer flocculant is added, a firing step for removing this is necessary. Moreover, since chlorine and sulfur contained in the coagulant are gasified in the furnace, it is necessary to treat them.
また、特開平4−59675号公報には、セラミック繊維を寒天やゼラチンなどのゲル化剤の溶液中に分散させたスラリーを調整し、このスラリーを加熱又は冷却することによってゲル化固化せしめ、得られたゲル体を乾燥後焼成する無機繊維質多孔材料の製造方法が記載されている。しかし、この方法では、ゲル化剤として寒天やゼラチンなどの有機物を使用するので、やはり最終的に焼成工程が必要となる。 JP-A-4-59675 prepares a slurry in which ceramic fibers are dispersed in a solution of a gelling agent such as agar or gelatin, and heats or cools the slurry to cause gelation and solidification. A method for producing an inorganic fibrous porous material is described in which the obtained gel body is dried and then fired. However, in this method, since an organic substance such as agar or gelatin is used as a gelling agent, a baking step is finally required.
特開平1−242737号公報には、SiやAlなどのアルコキシドを加水分解し、これにゲル化促進剤として(NH4)2CO3を添加して調整した溶液を、繊維成形体の成形用バインダーとして用いる方法が記載されている。しかし、使用する金属アルコキシドが高価であるうえ、ゲル化時間はコロイドの濃度、温度、pHに対して敏感なため制御が難しく、ゲル化が短時間に起きると成形ができなくなり、逆に時間が長すぎると成形効率が低下するという問題があった。 In JP-A-1-242737, a solution prepared by hydrolyzing an alkoxide such as Si or Al and adding (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 as a gelation accelerator thereto is used for forming a fiber molded body. A method for use as a binder is described. However, the metal alkoxide used is expensive and the gelation time is difficult to control because it is sensitive to the concentration, temperature, and pH of the colloid. If it is too long, there is a problem that the molding efficiency is lowered.
また、特開昭59−187700号公報には、無機質繊維とベントナイトなどの無機質充填剤を水に分散させたスラリーに、硫酸アルミニウムのような水溶性アルミニウム塩を添加して混合し、次いで撹拌しながらpH7〜10になるまでアルカリを添加してアルミニウム塩を加水分解させ、形成された水酸化アルミニウムを含むスラリー状原料混合物を脱水成形し、乾燥する方法が記載されている。しかし、この方法は、無機質充填剤が必要なうえ、面倒なpH調整を行う必要があった。 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 59-187700 discloses that a water-soluble aluminum salt such as aluminum sulfate is added to and mixed with a slurry in which inorganic fibers and an inorganic filler such as bentonite are dispersed in water, and then stirred. In addition, a method is described in which an alkali is added until the pH becomes 7 to 10 to hydrolyze the aluminum salt, the slurry-like raw material mixture containing the formed aluminum hydroxide is dehydrated and dried. However, this method requires an inorganic filler and requires complicated pH adjustment.
上記したように、無機質繊維成形体の製造の際に無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防ぐためには、帯電して互いに反発することで安定な状態となっているコロイド粒子を凝集させるか若しくはゲル化させる等して、成形体内に固定させる必要がある。しかしながら、上記した従来の方法では、凝結材、ゲル化剤、凝集剤などの添加を必要とし、更には有機物を添加する場合には最終的に焼成工程を必要とし、あるいはpH調整など複雑な工程を必要としていた。 As described above, in order to prevent migration of the inorganic binder during the production of the inorganic fiber molded body, the colloidal particles that are in a stable state by charging and repelling each other are aggregated or gelled. Need to be fixed in the molded body. However, the above-described conventional methods require the addition of a coagulant, a gelling agent, a flocculant and the like, and further, when an organic substance is added, finally requires a baking step, or a complicated step such as pH adjustment. Needed.
本発明は、このような従来の事情に鑑み、凝結材、ゲル化剤、凝集剤、pH調整剤などの添加物を必要とせず、有機物を一切使用せず且つ焼成工程を経ることなく無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防止することができる、簡単で効率的な無機質繊維成形体の製造方法を提供することを目的とするものである。 In view of such conventional circumstances, the present invention does not require an additive such as a coagulant, a gelling agent, a flocculant, and a pH adjuster, does not use any organic matter, and does not undergo a firing step. It is an object of the present invention to provide a simple and efficient method for producing an inorganic fiber molded body capable of preventing the migration of the above.
本発明者らは、無機質繊維成形体の製造の際に無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防ぐ方法について種々検討した結果、コロイダルシリカのようなコロイド粒子からなる無機バインダーを凍結すると、コロイド粒子が粗大化して、無機質繊維の成形体内に均一に分散した状態で担持され、通常の乾燥工程によっても無機バインダーが表面側に移行しないこと、しかも、この現象は配合された無機バインダーの濃度によらないことを見出し、本発明を完成させたものである。 As a result of various investigations on methods for preventing migration of an inorganic binder during the production of an inorganic fiber molded body, the present inventors frozen colloidal particles such as colloidal silica, and the colloidal particles became coarse, It is carried in a state of being uniformly dispersed in the molded body of inorganic fibers, and the inorganic binder does not move to the surface side even by a normal drying process, and this phenomenon is found not to depend on the concentration of the blended inorganic binder, The present invention has been completed.
即ち、本発明が提供する無機質繊維成形体の製造方法は、水に分散させたセラミックファイバーに無機バインダーを加え、吸引成形により成形して、得られた湿潤状態の成形体を凍結させた後、融解・乾燥することを特徴とする。 That is, the method for producing an inorganic fiber molded body provided by the present invention includes adding an inorganic binder to ceramic fibers dispersed in water, molding by suction molding, and freezing the obtained molded body in a wet state. It is characterized by melting and drying.
また、本発明が提供する無機質繊維成形体の他の製造方法は、水に分散させたセラミックファイバーを吸引成形により成形し、得られた湿潤状態の成形体に無機バインダーを含浸させ、その湿潤状態の成形体を凍結させた後、融解・乾燥することを特徴とする。 Another method for producing an inorganic fiber molded body provided by the present invention is to form ceramic fiber dispersed in water by suction molding, impregnate the obtained wet molded body with an inorganic binder, It is characterized by melting and drying after freezing the green body.
本発明によれば、バインダーなどの添加剤として有機物を一切含まず、従って有機物を除くための焼成工程を経ることなく、無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防止でき、内部まで優れた強度を有する高品質の無機質繊維成形体を製造することができる。しかも、凍結による粒子の粗大化は無機バインダーの濃度によらないので、無機バインダーの配合量を自由に決定でき、通常品から高強度品まで製品設計が容易である。 According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent migration of an inorganic binder without containing any organic substance as an additive such as a binder. A fiber molded body can be manufactured. Moreover, since the coarsening of the particles due to freezing does not depend on the concentration of the inorganic binder, the blending amount of the inorganic binder can be freely determined, and the product design from a normal product to a high strength product is easy.
また、凝結材、ゲル化剤、凝集剤、pH調整剤などの添加物を使用しないため、工程が簡便で制御が容易であるうえ、不純物が極めて少なく、従って耐熱性などの特性に優れた無機質繊維成形体を得ることができる。しかも、ろ過抵抗が低いので、厚物成形品も容易に成形できるなど、種々の形状の成形体が成形可能であると共に、成形時の排水中に有機物が含まれないため、廃水処理設備の負荷を軽減することができる。更に、有機物を使用しないため高温での乾燥が可能であり、焦げや変色も起こらず、高品質の無機質繊維積層体を短時間で効率よく製造することができる。 In addition, since no additives such as a coagulant, gelling agent, flocculant and pH adjuster are used, the process is simple and easy to control, and there are very few impurities, so it has excellent properties such as heat resistance. A fiber molded body can be obtained. In addition, since the filtration resistance is low, it is possible to form molded products with various shapes, such as easy molding of thick molded products, and because organic matter is not included in the wastewater during molding, the load of wastewater treatment equipment Can be reduced. Furthermore, since no organic substance is used, drying at a high temperature is possible, and neither burn nor discoloration occurs, and a high-quality inorganic fiber laminate can be efficiently produced in a short time.
本発明における第1の方法では、セラミックファイバーを水に分散させ、更に無機バインダーを加え、吸引成形により成形体を形成した後、得られた湿潤状態の成形体を、乾燥させることなく、そのまま凍結させる。湿潤状態の成形体を凍結させる方法には特に制限はなく、冷凍庫などに入れて、0℃以下の温度、好ましくは−10℃以下の温度で凍結させればよい。その後、凍結した成形体を融解・乾燥する。乾燥方法も特に制限されず、例えば、乾燥機に入れて、100℃程度以上の温度で融解・乾燥すればよいが、効率的に乾燥を行うためには110℃以上の温度が好ましい。 In the first method of the present invention, ceramic fibers are dispersed in water, an inorganic binder is further added, a molded body is formed by suction molding, and the obtained molded body in a wet state is frozen as it is without being dried. Let There is no particular limitation on the method for freezing the molded body in a wet state, and it may be frozen in a freezer or the like at a temperature of 0 ° C. or lower, preferably −10 ° C. or lower. Thereafter, the frozen molded body is thawed and dried. The drying method is not particularly limited. For example, it may be melted and dried at a temperature of about 100 ° C. or higher in a drier, but a temperature of 110 ° C. or higher is preferable for efficient drying.
また、本発明の第2の方法では、セラミックファイバーを水に分散させ、これに無機バインダーを加えることなく、吸引成形により成形体を形成する。次に、得られた湿潤状態の成形体に無機バインダーを含浸させた後、そのまま凍結させる。その後、凍結している成形体を融解・乾燥することによって、上記第1の方法と同様に、無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防止して、無機質繊維成形体を製造することができる。また、この第2の方法によれば、無機バインダーが製造ラインに循環しないので、ラインのメンテナンスが簡単になるという利点がある。 In the second method of the present invention, ceramic fibers are dispersed in water, and a molded body is formed by suction molding without adding an inorganic binder thereto. Next, after impregnating the obtained molded body in a wet state with an inorganic binder, it is frozen as it is. Thereafter, by melting and drying the frozen molded body, the migration of the inorganic binder can be prevented and the inorganic fiber molded body can be produced in the same manner as in the first method. Further, according to the second method, since the inorganic binder does not circulate in the production line, there is an advantage that the maintenance of the line is simplified.
上記の凍結工程によって、コロイダルシリカのようなコロイド粒子からなる無機バインダーの微粒子(粒径10〜20nm)は、粒径が10μm〜5mm程度にまで粗大化する。このように粗大化した無機バインダー粒子は、セラミックファイバーの成形体内を移動することができず、しかも凍結している成形体を加熱して融解しても粗大化した粒子径が維持される。従って、凍結している成形体を加熱・乾燥したとき、水は成形体内を表面に移動して蒸発するが、粗大な無機バインダー粒子は成形体内に均一な状態で保持されるため、無機バインダーのマイグレーションを防止することができるのである。 By the above freezing step, the fine particles (particle size 10 to 20 nm) of the inorganic binder made of colloidal particles such as colloidal silica are coarsened to a particle size of about 10 μm to 5 mm. The coarsened inorganic binder particles cannot move within the ceramic fiber molded body, and the coarsened particle diameter is maintained even if the frozen molded body is heated and melted. Therefore, when the frozen molded body is heated and dried, water moves to the surface of the molded body and evaporates, but the coarse inorganic binder particles are held in a uniform state in the molded body. Migration can be prevented.
上記した本発明方法においては、通常の場合、湿潤状態の成形体を完全に凍結させることにより、無機バインダーが全体に均一に分散され、全体に均一な硬さを有する成形体が得られる。しかし、完全(100%)に凍結させず、例えば80%だけ凍結させることも可能であり、その場合には、成形体内部がある程度の硬さを有し、且つ表面を十分に硬くすることができる。例えば、円筒形状などの成形体では、内部に比べて表面側が硬いほうが好まれ、外周加工を行わずに使用するものもある。 In the above-described method of the present invention, in general, by completely freezing the wet compact, the inorganic binder is uniformly dispersed throughout and a compact having uniform hardness is obtained. However, it is possible to freeze completely (100%), for example, only 80%. In that case, the inside of the molded body has a certain degree of hardness and the surface can be sufficiently hardened. it can. For example, in the case of a molded body having a cylindrical shape or the like, it is preferable that the surface side is harder than the inside, and there are some which are used without performing outer periphery processing.
また、凍結による無機バインダー粒子の粗大化は、無機質繊維成形体中の無機バインダー濃度に影響されない。従って、成形体中の無機バインダーの配合量は任意に決定でき、無機バインダーの液濃度や吸引時間により制御することができる。しかし、水の量が多くなり過ぎと、凍結時に成形体の体積膨張が起こり好ましくない。その場合には、無機バインダーの含浸後に吸引脱水することにより、水の配合量が無機質繊維成形体の空隙量の90%以下となるように制御することが望ましい。 Further, the coarsening of the inorganic binder particles due to freezing is not affected by the inorganic binder concentration in the inorganic fiber molded body. Therefore, the compounding quantity of the inorganic binder in a molded object can be determined arbitrarily, and can be controlled with the liquid density | concentration and suction time of an inorganic binder. However, if the amount of water is too large, the volume expansion of the molded body occurs during freezing, which is not preferable. In that case, it is desirable to control so that the blending amount of water is 90% or less of the void amount of the inorganic fiber molded body by suction dehydration after impregnation with the inorganic binder.
上記無機バインダーとしては、例えば、コロイダルシリカ(シリカゾル)、アルミナゾル、チタニアゾルなど、従来から無機質繊維成形体の製造に使用されているコロイド粒子状のものを使用することができ、中でもコロイダルシリカが好ましい。また、無機バインダーの配合量についても、特に制限はなく、成形体が必要とする特性に応じて、例えば必要とする強度や硬度が得られる範囲内で、任意に定めることが可能である。尚、セラミックファイバーとしては、シリカアルミナファイバー、ムライトファイバー、アルミナファイバー、ロックウール、ガラスファイバーなどを使用することができる。 As the inorganic binder, colloidal silica particles conventionally used for the production of inorganic fiber molded bodies such as colloidal silica (silica sol), alumina sol and titania sol can be used, and colloidal silica is particularly preferable. Moreover, there is no restriction | limiting in particular also about the compounding quantity of an inorganic binder, According to the characteristic which a molded object requires, it can set arbitrarily within the range in which required intensity | strength and hardness are obtained, for example. As the ceramic fiber, silica alumina fiber, mullite fiber, alumina fiber, rock wool, glass fiber or the like can be used.
また、本発明の無機質繊維成形体の形状は、セラミックファイバーを水に分散させたスラリー、または更に無機バインダーを添加したスラリーを吸引成形する際の成形型を変えることによって、ボード状だけでなく、円筒状など、あらゆる形状とすることが可能である。尚、成形の際に成形型から吸引排出され水と無機バインダーは、回収してスラリーに再配合することができる。 In addition, the shape of the inorganic fiber molded body of the present invention is not limited to the board shape by changing the molding die when the slurry in which the ceramic fiber is dispersed in water or the slurry to which the inorganic binder is further added is suction molded. Any shape such as a cylindrical shape is possible. The water and inorganic binder that are sucked and discharged from the mold during molding can be recovered and re-mixed in the slurry.
[実施例1]
配合槽に水2m3と濃度40wt%のコロイダルシリカ液1.5m3を入れ、次いでシリカアルミナファイバー50kgを加え、撹拌機で2分間分散してスラリーを作製した。得られたスラリーを成形槽に送り、スラリー中に金型を沈め、スラリーを撹拌しながら3分間吸引して、金型上に厚さ160mmの板状の成形体を成形した。
[Example 1]
2 m 3 of water and 1.5 m 3 of a colloidal silica liquid having a concentration of 40 wt% were placed in the blending tank, 50 kg of silica alumina fiber was added, and the mixture was dispersed with a stirrer for 2 minutes to prepare a slurry. The obtained slurry was sent to a molding tank, a mold was submerged in the slurry, and the slurry was sucked for 3 minutes while stirring to mold a plate-shaped molded body having a thickness of 160 mm on the mold.
その後、吸引したまま金型ごと成形体をスラリーから引き上げ、更に1分間吸引して脱水した。成形体内に担持されるコロイダルシリカの量は、この大気中での吸引時間を長くすることで少なくなり、短くすることで多くなる。吸引除去されたコロイダルシリカは、気液分離器で分離され、貯留槽へ送って次の配合に用いた。 Thereafter, the molded body together with the mold was pulled up from the slurry while being sucked, and further dehydrated by sucking for 1 minute. The amount of colloidal silica carried in the molded body is reduced by increasing the suction time in the atmosphere, and is increased by shortening. The colloidal silica removed by suction was separated by a gas-liquid separator and sent to a storage tank for use in the next formulation.
得られた成形体を脱型した後、湿潤状態の成形体を冷凍庫に入れ、−10℃で10時間以上保持して完全に凍結させた。凍結した成形体を冷凍庫から出し、乾燥機に入れて110℃に保持して2日以上乾燥した。 After demolding the obtained molded body, the wet molded body was put in a freezer and kept at −10 ° C. for 10 hours or more to be completely frozen. The frozen molded body was taken out of the freezer, placed in a dryer, kept at 110 ° C. and dried for 2 days or more.
その後、機械加工により900×600×150mmのボード状とした。得られた無機質繊維成形体は、密度が300kg/m3、曲げ強度が0.3MPa、表面硬度が60及び内部硬度が60であった。尚、無機質繊維成形体の表面硬度及び内部の測定は、アスカーゴム硬度計C型によった(以下の実施例も同じ)。 Thereafter, it was formed into a board shape of 900 × 600 × 150 mm by machining. The obtained inorganic fiber molded body had a density of 300 kg / m 3 , a bending strength of 0.3 MPa, a surface hardness of 60, and an internal hardness of 60. In addition, the surface hardness and the internal measurement of the inorganic fiber molded body were based on the Asker rubber hardness meter C type (the following examples are also the same).
比較のため、凍結しなかった以外は上記と同様にして、同じ形状と寸法の無機質繊維成形体を製造した。得られた無機質繊維成形体は、無機バインダーであるコロイダルシリカのマイグレーションが起こるため、表面硬度が90及び内部硬度が10であった。 For comparison, an inorganic fiber molded body having the same shape and size was produced in the same manner as above except that it was not frozen. The resulting inorganic fiber molded body had a surface hardness of 90 and an internal hardness of 10 because migration of colloidal silica, which is an inorganic binder, occurred.

その後、吸引したまま金型ごと成形体をスラリーから引き上げ、更に3分間吸引して脱水した。得られた成形体を脱型した後、濃度10wt%のコロイダルシリカ液を成形体に含浸させ、−10℃の冷凍庫に入れ、10時間以上保持して完全に凍結させた。凍結した成形体を乾燥機に入れ、110℃で2日以上乾燥した。 Thereafter, the molded body together with the mold was pulled up from the slurry while being sucked, and further dehydrated by sucking for 3 minutes. After the resulting molded body was demolded, the molded body was impregnated with a colloidal silica solution having a concentration of 10 wt%, placed in a freezer at −10 ° C. and held for 10 hours or more to completely freeze. The frozen molded body was put in a dryer and dried at 110 ° C. for 2 days or more.
その後、機械加工により900×600×150mmのボード状とした。得られた無機質繊維成形体は、密度が320kg/m3、曲げ強度が0.4MPa、表面硬度が65及び内部硬度が65であった。
Thereafter, it was formed into a board shape of 900 × 600 × 150 mm by machining. The obtained inorganic fiber molded body had a density of 320 kg / m 3 , a bending strength of 0.4 MPa, a surface hardness of 65, and an internal hardness of 65.
