Description

本発明は、ルチル型酸化チタン粒子及びその製造方法、特に、高アスペクト比を有し、単結晶であるルチル型酸化チタン粒子及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to rutile-type titanium oxide particles and a method for producing the same, and more particularly to rutile-type titanium oxide particles having a high aspect ratio and being a single crystal and a method for producing the same.

酸化チタンは、正の複屈折性を有するため、例えば、光学用途等の複屈折の調節が要請される用途での応用が期待される。ここで、前記複屈折の調節を行なうためには、例えば、粒子を含む高分子膜を溶液製膜する場合には、乾燥過程における溶液の蒸散過程において粒子を面内に配向させるために、粒子はnmサイズであって、且つ、針状、棒状、紡錘状、平板等の球状でない形態であることが必要である。あるいは、粒子を含む膜は、その製膜方法によらず、製膜時に延伸されるため、粒子はnmサイズであって、且つ、針状、棒状、紡錘状等の高アスペクト比であることが必要である。   Since titanium oxide has a positive birefringence, it is expected to be applied in applications where birefringence adjustment is required, such as optical applications. Here, in order to adjust the birefringence, for example, when a polymer film containing particles is formed into a solution, in order to orient the particles in the plane in the evaporation process of the solution in the drying process, It is necessary to have a nanometer size and a non-spherical shape such as a needle shape, a rod shape, a spindle shape, or a flat plate. Alternatively, since the film containing particles is stretched during film formation regardless of the film forming method, the particles have a nanometer size and a high aspect ratio such as a needle shape, a rod shape, or a spindle shape. is necessary.

前記酸化チタンの結晶型には、アナターゼ型、ルチル型、及びブルッカイト型が存在する。このうち、ルチル型粒子を得る方法としては、例えば、アナターゼ型粒子を約900℃にて加熱焼成する方法が知られている。しかし、この方法では、アナターゼ型粒子の段階の粒子形態やサイズを維持したルチル型粒子を得ることが難しいことから、長径がnmサイズのルチル型粒子を得ることも困難である。また、この方法では、一旦アナターゼ型粒子を得てからでなければルチル型粒子を得ることができず、工程が煩雑となる。   The crystal form of the titanium oxide includes an anatase type, a rutile type, and a brookite type. Among these, as a method for obtaining rutile type particles, for example, a method in which anatase type particles are heated and fired at about 900 ° C. is known. However, with this method, it is difficult to obtain rutile type particles that maintain the particle form and size at the stage of anatase type particles, and it is therefore difficult to obtain rutile type particles having a major axis of nm size. Further, in this method, rutile type particles cannot be obtained unless anatase type particles are once obtained, and the process becomes complicated.

一方、アナターゼ型粒子を介さずに、ルチル型粒子を直接得る方法としては、気相中での熱分解法が知られているが(特許文献1参照)、この方法では、球状等の低アスペクト比のルチル型粒子が得られてしまい、針状、棒状、紡錘状等の高アスペクト比のルチル型酸化チタン粒子を得ることができない。
また、アナターゼ型酸化チタン粒子については、針状、棒状、紡錘状等の粒子が得られた旨の報告があるが(非特許文献1参照)、ルチル型酸化チタン粒子については、そのような報告は見出されていない。
On the other hand, as a method for directly obtaining rutile-type particles without using anatase-type particles, a thermal decomposition method in a gas phase is known (see Patent Document 1). In other words, rutile type particles having a high aspect ratio such as needles, rods, and spindles cannot be obtained.
As for anatase-type titanium oxide particles, there are reports that particles such as needles, rods, and spindles have been obtained (see Non-Patent Document 1), but for rutile-type titanium oxide particles, such reports are available. Has not been found.

したがって、アナターゼ型酸化チタン粒子を高温焼成する方法以外で形成可能であり、高アスペクト比を有し、複屈折の調節が要請される用途で応用し得るルチル型酸化チタン粒子及びその製造方法は未だ提供されておらず、その開発が強く望まれているのが現状である。
一方で、非特許文献2のようにルチル型の粒子を直接形成させる方法も存在するが、得られる粒子は球状であって、高分子膜中に添加した場合に、針状や棒状で実現できる配向性付与(粒子のある結晶軸をある方向に並べること)ができない。
Therefore, rutile type titanium oxide particles that can be formed by methods other than the method of firing anatase type titanium oxide particles at a high temperature, have a high aspect ratio, and can be applied in applications requiring adjustment of birefringence, and methods for producing the same are still available. It is not provided and the development is strongly desired.
On the other hand, there is a method of directly forming rutile-type particles as in Non-Patent Document 2, but the obtained particles are spherical and can be realized in a needle shape or a rod shape when added to a polymer film. Orientation cannot be imparted (the crystal axes with particles are aligned in a certain direction).

また、特許文献2、特許文献3(比較例2)、及び特許文献4(比較例2)等においては、高アスペクト比を有するルチル型酸化チタン粒子が知られているが、それぞれ以下のような問題点がある。
特許文献2では、酸化錫(SnO)を含む粒子となってしまうことから、高純度なルチル粒子とはならない。
特許文献3(比較例2)では、小さな粒子が凝集して、多結晶の針状粒子が形成されているので、針状や棒状粒子の長軸方向が、結晶(単位格子)のc軸方向に一致しているとは限らない。そのため、このような粒子を高分子膜中に添加し、何らかの配向を実現しても、前記複屈折の調節を行なうことができず、あるいは、調節が行なえたとしてもより多くの粒子を添加する必要がある。
In Patent Document 2, Patent Document 3 (Comparative Example 2), Patent Document 4 (Comparative Example 2) and the like, rutile-type titanium oxide particles having a high aspect ratio are known. There is a problem.
In Patent Document 2, since it becomes particles containing tin oxide (SnO 2), not a high purity rutile particles.
In Patent Document 3 (Comparative Example 2), since small particles aggregate to form polycrystalline needle-like particles, the major axis direction of the needle-like or rod-like particles is the c-axis direction of the crystal (unit cell). Does not necessarily match. Therefore, even if such particles are added to the polymer film and some orientation is realized, the birefringence cannot be adjusted, or even if the adjustment can be made, more particles are added. There is a need.

さらに、特許文献4(比較例2)では、粒子の顕微鏡写真とその比表面積の値から多結晶粒子である可能性が高い。多結晶粒子の場合、上述のように、針状や棒状粒子の長軸方向が、結晶(単位格子)のc軸方向に一致しているとは限らない。そのため、このような粒子を高分子膜中に添加し、何らかの配向を実現しても、前記複屈折の調節を行なうことができず、あるいは、調節が行えたとしてもより多くの粒子を添加する必要がある。   Furthermore, in Patent Document 4 (Comparative Example 2), there is a high possibility that the particles are polycrystalline particles from the micrograph of the particles and the value of the specific surface area. In the case of polycrystalline particles, as described above, the major axis direction of needle-like or rod-like particles does not always coincide with the c-axis direction of the crystal (unit cell). Therefore, even if such particles are added to the polymer film and some orientation is realized, the birefringence cannot be adjusted, or even if the adjustment can be made, more particles are added. There is a need.

(Rutyl-type titanium oxide particles and production method thereof)
The rutile-type titanium oxide particles of the present invention have an average maximum minor axis of 5 to 50 nm, an average maximum major axis of 30 to 300 nm, and are single crystals. In addition, the manufacturing method of the rutile type titanium oxide particle of this invention is clarified through description of the said rutile type titanium oxide particle of this invention.
“Single crystal” refers to a crystal whose direction of crystal axis does not change at any position of the crystal. The aggregate of single crystals is polycrystalline.
As a method for discriminating between a single crystal and a polycrystal, the following methods may be mentioned. That is, by selecting a particle under observation with a transmission electron microscope and taking a diffraction image of the particle with an electron beam diffractometer provided in the microscope, if the diffraction pattern becomes a spot shape, If it becomes a crystal or ring shape, it can be identified as polycrystalline.

前記酸化チタン粒子が、ルチル型であるかアナターゼ型であるかは、例えば、X線回折(XRD)にて得られた粒子の結晶相を同定することにより確認することができる。
前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子の形状としては、平均最大長径及び平均最大短径が上記範囲内であれば特に制限はないが、例えば、針状、棒状、紡錘状等であることが好ましい。
Whether the titanium oxide particles are rutile or anatase can be confirmed, for example, by identifying the crystal phase of the particles obtained by X-ray diffraction (XRD).
The shape of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles is not particularly limited as long as the average maximum major axis and the average maximum minor axis are within the above ranges.

本発明において、前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子の平均最大短径は、上述のように5〜50nmであるが、5〜30nmであることが好ましく、5〜20nmであることがより好ましい。前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子の平均最大長径は、上述のように30〜300nmであるが、30〜200nmであることが好ましく、30〜100nmであることがより好ましい。前記平均最大短径あるいは平均最大長径が上記範囲外であると、例えばこの粒子を樹脂中に分散させた場合等に、その透明性が大きく低下することがある。   In the present invention, the average maximum minor axis of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles is 5 to 50 nm as described above, preferably 5 to 30 nm, and more preferably 5 to 20 nm. The average maximum major axis of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles is 30 to 300 nm as described above, but is preferably 30 to 200 nm, and more preferably 30 to 100 nm. When the average maximum minor axis or the average maximum major axis is out of the above range, for example, when the particles are dispersed in a resin, the transparency may be greatly lowered.

前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子の短径は、例えば、得られたルチル型酸化チタン粒子を透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)にて観察し、撮影した粒子写真をスキャナーで取り込んで画像ファイルとして保存し、この保存した画像ファイル(電子ファイル)に対し、株式会社マウンテック製、画像解析式粒度分布ソフトウェア「Mac−View」Ver.3を用い、観察できる粒子を取り込み、更にこのソフトによって計算されたその短手方向(幅)の最も大きい箇所の径(最大短径)を平均化して求めることができる。

The short diameter of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles can be determined by, for example, observing the obtained rutile-type titanium oxide particles with a transmission electron microscope (TEM), capturing the photographed particle photograph with a scanner, and saving the image file. For the saved image file (electronic file), image analysis type particle size distribution software “Mac-View” Ver. 3 can be obtained by taking in particles that can be observed and averaging the diameter (maximum short diameter) of the largest portion in the short direction (width) calculated by this software.
Similarly, the major axis of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles can be determined by averaging the diameter of the largest part in the longitudinal direction (maximum major axis).

本発明において、前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子のアスペクト比は、好ましい形状の粒子を得る観点から、2以上であることが好ましく、4〜10であることがより好ましい。前記アスペクト比が2未満であると、粒子が粒状又は球状に近くなり、例えば樹脂中に分散させた場合に、分子配向に伴って粒子配向が発現する確率が減少乃至ゼロとなってしまうことがある。前記アスペクト比は、例えば、平均最大長径/平均最大短径により求めることができる。   In the present invention, the aspect ratio of the rutile-type titanium oxide particles is preferably 2 or more, and more preferably 4 to 10 from the viewpoint of obtaining particles having a preferable shape. When the aspect ratio is less than 2, the particles are almost granular or spherical, and when dispersed in a resin, for example, the probability that the particle orientation appears with the molecular orientation may be reduced to zero. is there. The aspect ratio can be obtained by, for example, average maximum major axis / average maximum minor axis.

光学用途に応用した場合に、光散乱による透過率減少を起こす粒子の含有率を下げ、実質的に散乱の少ない状態を実現する観点から、前記ルチル型酸化チタン粒子の径のバラツキとしては、短径及び長径のいずれにおいても、変動係数が0.4以下であることが好ましく、0.3以下であることがより好ましい。前記変動係数が、0.4を超えると、平均値より長い粒子の混合比が増加し、例えば樹脂中に分散させた場合に、該樹脂の光透過率が低下することがある。   From the viewpoint of reducing the content of particles that cause a decrease in transmittance due to light scattering and realizing a state of substantially less scattering when applied to optical applications, the variation in the diameter of the rutile titanium oxide particles is short. In any of the diameter and the major axis, the coefficient of variation is preferably 0.4 or less, and more preferably 0.3 or less. If the coefficient of variation exceeds 0.4, the mixing ratio of particles longer than the average value increases. For example, when dispersed in a resin, the light transmittance of the resin may decrease.

前記変動係数とは、前記平均最大短径又は前記平均最大短径に対する短径又は長径の標準偏差の比で表され、下記数式(1)で求められる。
ただし、前記数式(1)中、rは最大平均短径又は最大平均長径を表し、nは短径及び長径を測定した粒子の数を表し、rはi番目に測定した粒子の短径又は長径を表す。
The coefficient of variation is represented by the ratio of the standard deviation of the minor axis or major axis to the average maximum minor axis or the average maximum minor axis, and is obtained by the following mathematical formula (1).
However, in the equation (1), r is the maximum average minor diameter or represents the maximum average major axis, n represents the number of particles was measured minor and major diameter, minor diameter or r i was measured i-th particle Represents the major axis.

前記nの値は、100以上と定義するが、より大きい方が好ましく、200以上であることがより好ましい。前記nの値が、100未満となると、粒子の分散を正確に反映できなくなることがある。変動係数を百分率で表示する場合には、上記数式(1)の値を100倍した値として表示することができる。例えば、前記変動係数の値が、0.40以下である場合には、百分率表示では、40%以下と表示することができる。   The value of n is defined as 100 or more, but is preferably larger and more preferably 200 or more. If the value of n is less than 100, the dispersion of particles may not be accurately reflected. When the coefficient of variation is displayed as a percentage, it can be displayed as a value obtained by multiplying the value of Equation (1) by 100. For example, when the value of the variation coefficient is 0.40 or less, 40% or less can be displayed in percentage display.

前記変動係数は、例えば、分散させた粒子を透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)にて観察し、撮影した粒子写真をスキャナーで取り込んで画像ファイルとして保存し、この保存した画像ファイル情報を、株式会社マウンテック製、画像解析式粒度分布測定ソフトウェア「Mac−View」Ver.3を用いて1粒子ごとに測定し、集計することで求めることができる。   The coefficient of variation is obtained by, for example, observing dispersed particles with a transmission electron microscope (TEM), capturing a photograph of the photographed particles with a scanner, and saving the image file as an image file. Manufactured by Image Analysis type particle size distribution measurement software “Mac-View” Ver. It can be obtained by measuring every particle using 3 and counting.
