Description

本発明は、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持したカーボン、このカーボンを含有する電極材料、この電極材料を用いた電極及び電気化学素子に関する。 The present invention relates to carbon in which metal oxide nanoparticles are highly dispersed and supported, an electrode material containing the carbon, an electrode using the electrode material, and an electrochemical element.

従来より、加水分解反応、酸化反応、重合反応、縮合反応等、液相反応において金属酸化物、金属水酸化物などの不溶性生成物を生成する反応方法が知られているが、このような反応方法としては、ゾル−ゲル法が代表的である。しかしながら、このゾル−ゲル法は金属塩の加水分解反応、重縮合反応等によるものであり反応速度は遅く、均一な生成物を得ることができない。その問題点を解決する方法として、触媒を用いて反応を促進する方法が知られている。このほか、反応性のよい反応物を用いたり（特許文献１）、撹拌方法を改善した例（特許文献２）がある。
さらに、このような液相反応によって生成される水酸化金属水和物が電気エネルギー貯蔵素子として用いられる試みがある（特許文献３） Conventionally, there are known reaction methods for producing insoluble products such as metal oxides and metal hydroxides in liquid phase reactions such as hydrolysis reactions, oxidation reactions, polymerization reactions and condensation reactions. As a method, a sol-gel method is representative. However, this sol-gel method is based on a hydrolysis reaction, polycondensation reaction, etc. of a metal salt, and the reaction rate is slow, so that a uniform product cannot be obtained. As a method for solving the problem, a method of promoting a reaction using a catalyst is known. In addition, there are examples in which reactants having good reactivity are used (Patent Document 1) and the stirring method is improved (Patent Document 2).
Furthermore, there is an attempt to use a metal hydroxide hydrate produced by such a liquid phase reaction as an electric energy storage element (Patent Document 3).

しかしながら、このような方法によっても反応を促進することができず、結果として均一な生成物を得ることができないという問題点があった。また、電気エネルギー貯蔵素子として好適なナノ粒子とすることができないという問題点があった。そこで、本発明は、従来にない液相反応において反応を促進する方法を用いて作成した金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持したカーボン、このカーボンを含有する電極材料、この電極材料を用いた電極及び電気化学素子を提供することを目的とする。 However, there is a problem that the reaction cannot be promoted even by such a method, and as a result, a uniform product cannot be obtained. Moreover, there existed a problem that it could not be set as a suitable nanoparticle as an electrical energy storage element. Accordingly, the present invention provides a carbon in which metal oxide nanoparticles prepared using a method for promoting a reaction in an unprecedented liquid phase reaction are highly dispersed and supported, an electrode material containing the carbon, and an electrode using the electrode material And it aims at providing an electrochemical element.

本発明の金属酸化物ナノ粒子を担持したカーボン、このカーボンを含有する電極、及びこの電極を用いた電気化学素子を作製するための反応方法は、化学反応の過程で、旋回する反応器内で反応物にずり応力と遠心力を加えて化学反応を促進することを特徴としている。この反応方法においては、反応物にずり応力と遠心力の双方の機械的エネルギーが同時に加えられることによって、このエネルギーが化学エネルギーに転化することによるものと思われるが、従来にない速度で化学反応を促進させることができる。 The reaction method for producing the carbon carrying the metal oxide nanoparticles of the present invention, the electrode containing the carbon, and the electrochemical device using the electrode is carried out in a rotating reactor in the course of the chemical reaction. It is characterized by promoting a chemical reaction by applying shear stress and centrifugal force to the reactant. In this reaction method, mechanical energy of both shear stress and centrifugal force is applied to the reactant at the same time, which seems to be due to the conversion of this energy into chemical energy. Can be promoted.

さらに、この反応は、旋回する反応器内で反応物を含む薄膜を生成し、この薄膜にずり応力と遠心力を加えることによって、薄膜内の反応物に大きなずり応力と遠心力が加わり、さらに化学反応を促進することができる。 In addition, this reaction produces a thin film containing the reactants in a swirling reactor, and by applying shear stress and centrifugal force to the thin film, large shear stress and centrifugal force are applied to the reactants in the thin film. Can promote chemical reactions.

そして、このような化学反応を促進させるには、外筒と内筒の同心円筒からなり、内筒の側面に貫通孔を備えるとともに、外筒の開口部にせき板を配置してなる反応器において、内筒の旋回による遠心力によって内筒内の反応物を内筒の貫通孔を通じて外筒の内壁面に移動させ、外筒の内壁面に反応物を含む薄膜を生成するとともに、この薄膜にずり応力と遠心力を加えることによって実現することができる。 And in order to promote such a chemical reaction, the reactor which consists of a concentric cylinder of an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder, is equipped with a through-hole in the side surface of an inner cylinder, and arrange | positions a slat in the opening part of an outer cylinder. In this, the reactant in the inner cylinder is moved to the inner wall surface of the outer cylinder through the through-hole of the inner cylinder by centrifugal force due to the turning of the inner cylinder, and a thin film containing the reactant is generated on the inner wall surface of the outer cylinder. This can be realized by applying shear stress and centrifugal force.

ここで、薄膜の厚みを５ｍｍ以下とすることによって、この反応方法の効果を高めることができる。この場合、反応器の内筒内の反応物に加えられる遠心力を１５００Ｎ（ｋｇｍｓ-2）以上とすることによって、本発明の反応方法の効果を高めることができる。また、この化学反応は金属塩の加水分解反応または縮合反応に用いることができる。以上の化学反応によって、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を形成することができる。 Here, the effect of this reaction method can be enhanced by setting the thickness of the thin film to 5 mm or less. In this case, the effect of the reaction method of the present invention can be enhanced by setting the centrifugal force applied to the reactant in the inner cylinder of the reactor to 1500 N (kgms −2 ) or more. Moreover, this chemical reaction can be used for the hydrolysis reaction or condensation reaction of a metal salt. Metal oxide nanoparticles can be formed by the above chemical reaction.

本発明のカーボンは、化学反応の過程で、旋回する反応器内で反応物にずり応力と遠心力を加えて生成した金属酸化物ナノ粒子と、旋回する反応器内でずり応力と遠心力を加えて分散したカーボンとからなり、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンであることを特徴としている。このような金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンは、金属酸化物ナノ粒子の生成とともにこの金属酸化物ナノ粒子とカーボンが均一分散され、反応終了とともにカーボンの表面に金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させた状態となって形成される。このカーボンは前述した反応方法によって、反応物とカーボンを混合した状態で、反応させると同時に分散させることによって作成することができる。 The carbon of the present invention is produced by applying shear stress and centrifugal force to a reactant in a swirling reactor in the course of a chemical reaction, and generating shear stress and centrifugal force in a swirling reactor. In addition, the carbon is characterized by being composed of dispersed carbon and carrying highly dispersed metal oxide nanoparticles. The carbon in which such metal oxide nanoparticles are supported in a highly dispersed state is uniformly dispersed as the metal oxide nanoparticles and carbon are formed as the metal oxide nanoparticles are generated. Is formed in a highly dispersed state. This carbon can be produced by the reaction method described above, by reacting and dispersing the reactant and carbon in a mixed state.

このカーボンは電気化学素子用電極材料として用いることができる。この電極はナノ化しているため、比表面積が格段に拡大しているので、リチウムイオンの貯蔵電極として用いた場合には出力特性が向上し、プロトンの貯蔵電極として用いた場合には容量特性が向上する。したがって、この電極を用いることによって、高出力、高容量特性を有する電気化学素子を得ることができる。 This carbon can be used as an electrode material for electrochemical devices. Since this electrode is nano-sized, the specific surface area is greatly expanded, so that the output characteristics are improved when used as a lithium ion storage electrode, and the capacity characteristics when used as a proton storage electrode. improves. Therefore, by using this electrode, an electrochemical element having high output and high capacity characteristics can be obtained.

以上のように、前記の化学反応方法は、ずり応力と遠心力の双方が同時に反応物に加えられることによって、この機械的エネルギーが反応に必要な化学エネルギーに転化することによるものと思われるが、従来にない速度で化学反応が進行する。この方法を金属塩の加水分解、縮合反応に適用することによって、反応が瞬時に進行して本発明でカーボンに担持させる金属酸化物ナノ粒子を生成することができる。 As described above, the chemical reaction method seems to be due to the fact that both mechanical stress and centrifugal force are simultaneously applied to the reaction material, whereby this mechanical energy is converted into chemical energy necessary for the reaction. The chemical reaction proceeds at an unprecedented rate. By applying this method to hydrolysis and condensation reactions of metal salts, the reaction can proceed instantaneously to produce metal oxide nanoparticles supported on carbon in the present invention.

さらに、この化学反応過程で、反応物にカーボンを添加することにすることによって、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンを得ることができ、このカーボンを電極として用いることによって、高出力、高容量特性を有する電気化学素子を実現すことができる。 Furthermore, by adding carbon to the reactants in this chemical reaction process, carbon in which metal oxide nanoparticles are supported in a highly dispersed state can be obtained. By using this carbon as an electrode, high output can be obtained. In addition, an electrochemical device having high capacity characteristics can be realized.

本発明の金属酸化物ナノ粒子を担持したカーボンを製造するための電気化学素子反応に用いる反応器の１例である。It is an example of the reactor used for the electrochemical element reaction for manufacturing the carbon which carry | supported the metal oxide nanoparticle of this invention. 実施例１において得られた酸化チタニウムナノ粒子を高分散担持させたケッチェンブラックのＴＥＭ像である。2 is a TEM image of ketjen black on which titanium oxide nanoparticles obtained in Example 1 are supported in a highly dispersed state. 実施例３において得られた酸化ルテニウムナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンナノチューブのＴＥＭ像である。6 is a TEM image of carbon nanotubes obtained by carrying highly dispersed ruthenium oxide nanoparticles obtained in Example 3.

以下に本発明の金属酸化物ナノ粒子を担持したカーボンを製造するための化学反応方法について、さらに詳細に説明する。
この化学反応方法は、例えば図１に示すような反応器を用いて行うことができる。図１に示すように、反応器は開口部にせき板１−２を有する外筒１と貫通孔２−１を有し旋回する内筒２からなる。この反応器の内筒内部に反応物を投入し、内筒を旋回することによってその遠心力で内筒内部の反応物が内筒の貫通孔を通って外筒の内壁１−３に移動する。この時反応物は内筒の遠心力によって外筒の内壁に衝突し、薄膜状となって内壁の上部へずり上がる。この状態では反応物には内壁との間のずり応力と内筒からの遠心力の双方が同時に加わり、薄膜状の反応物に大きな機械的エネルギーが加わることになる。この機械的なエネルギーが反応に必要な化学エネルギー、いわゆる活性化エネルギーに転化するものと思われるが、短時間で反応が進行する。 Hereinafter, the chemical reaction method for producing carbon carrying the metal oxide nanoparticles of the present invention will be described in more detail.
This chemical reaction method can be performed, for example, using a reactor as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the reactor includes an outer cylinder 1 having a cough plate 1-2 at an opening and an inner cylinder 2 having a through hole 2-1 and swirling. By putting the reactant into the inner cylinder of this reactor and turning the inner cylinder, the reactant inside the inner cylinder moves to the inner wall 1-3 of the outer cylinder through the through hole of the inner cylinder by the centrifugal force. . At this time, the reaction product collides with the inner wall of the outer cylinder due to the centrifugal force of the inner cylinder, becomes a thin film, and moves up to the upper part of the inner wall. In this state, both the shear stress between the inner wall and the centrifugal force from the inner cylinder are simultaneously applied to the reactant, and a large mechanical energy is applied to the thin-film reactant. This mechanical energy is considered to be converted into chemical energy necessary for the reaction, so-called activation energy, but the reaction proceeds in a short time.

この反応において、薄膜状であると反応物に加えられる機械的エネルギーは大きなものとなるため、薄膜の厚みは５ｍｍ以下、好ましくは２．５ｍｍ以下、さらに好ましくは１．０ｍｍ以下である。なお、薄膜の厚みはせき板の幅、反応液の量によって設定することができる。 In this reaction, since the mechanical energy applied to the reaction product is large when it is in the form of a thin film, the thickness of the thin film is 5 mm or less, preferably 2.5 mm or less, more preferably 1.0 mm or less. The thickness of the thin film can be set according to the width of the dam plate and the amount of the reaction solution.

この反応方法は反応物に加えられるずり応力と遠心力の機械的エネルギーによって実現できるものと考えられるが、このずり応力と遠心力は内筒内の反応物に加えられる遠心力によって生じる。したがって、本発明に必要な内筒内の反応物に加えられる遠心力は１５００Ｎ（ｋｇｍｓ-2）以上、好ましくは７００００Ｎ（ｋｇｍｓ-2）以上、さらに好ましくは２７００００Ｎ（ｋｇｍｓ-2）以上である。 This reaction method is considered to be realized by the mechanical energy of the shear stress and the centrifugal force applied to the reactant, but the shear stress and the centrifugal force are generated by the centrifugal force applied to the reactant in the inner cylinder. Thus, the centrifugal force applied to the reactants in the inner cylinder necessary for the present invention is 1500 N (kgms -2) or more, preferably 70000N (kgms -2) or more, more preferably 270000N (kgms -2) or more.

以上の本発明の反応方法は液相反応であれば、加水分解反応、酸化反応、重合反応、縮合反応等様々な反応に適用することができる。 As long as the reaction method of the present invention is a liquid phase reaction, it can be applied to various reactions such as a hydrolysis reaction, an oxidation reaction, a polymerization reaction, and a condensation reaction.

なかでも、従来ゾル−ゲル法で行われていた金属塩の加水分解反応、縮合反応よる金属酸化物の生成に適用することによって、均一な金属酸化物ナノ粒子を形成することができる。 Among these, uniform metal oxide nanoparticles can be formed by applying to the metal salt hydrolysis reaction and condensation reaction conventionally performed by the sol-gel method.

金属酸化物の金属としては、Li, Al, Si, P, B, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Nb, Mo, Ru, Pb, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, W, Ce等を挙げることができる。酸化物としては、例えばMxOz、AxMyOz、Mx(DO4)y、AxMy(DO4)z（M:金属元素 A：アルカリ金属又はランタノイド元素 D: Be, B, Si, P, Ge等 ）で表される酸化物であり、これらの固溶体とすることもできる。 Metal oxides include Li, Al, Si, P, B, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Nb, Mo, Ru, Pb, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, W, Ce, etc. can be mentioned. Examples of oxides are MxOz, AxMyOz, Mx (DO4) y, and AxMy (DO4) z (M: metal element A: alkali metal or lanthanoid element D: Be, B, Si, P, Ge, etc.) It is an oxide, and these solid solutions can also be used.

以上の金属酸化物ナノ粒子は電気化学素子用電極に好適な活物質として作用する。すなわち、ナノ粒子化することによって比表面積が格段に拡大して、出力特性、容量特性が向上する。 The above metal oxide nanoparticles act as an active material suitable for an electrode for an electrochemical device. That is, by making nanoparticles, the specific surface area is greatly expanded, and the output characteristics and capacity characteristics are improved.

さらに、このような金属塩の加水分解反応、縮合反応よる金属酸化物の生成反応において、反応過程でカーボンを加えることによって、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンを得ることができる。すなわち、図１の反応器の内筒の内部に金属塩とカーボンを投入して、内筒を旋回して金属塩とカーボンを混合、分散する。さらに内筒を旋回させながら水酸化ナトリウムなどの触媒を投入して加水分解、縮合反応を進行させ、金属酸化物を生成するとともに、この金属酸化物とカーボンを分散状態で、混合する。反応終了とともに、金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンを形成することができる。 Furthermore, in such a metal salt hydrolysis reaction and a metal oxide production reaction by a condensation reaction, carbon in which metal oxide nanoparticles are highly dispersed and supported can be obtained by adding carbon during the reaction process. That is, a metal salt and carbon are introduced into the inner cylinder of the reactor shown in FIG. 1, and the inner cylinder is swirled to mix and disperse the metal salt and carbon. Further, while turning the inner cylinder, a catalyst such as sodium hydroxide is added to cause hydrolysis and condensation reaction to proceed to produce a metal oxide, and the metal oxide and carbon are mixed in a dispersed state. Along with the completion of the reaction, carbon in which metal oxide nanoparticles are supported in a highly dispersed state can be formed.

ここで用いるカーボンとしては、ケッチェンブラック、アセチレンブラック等のカーボンブラック、カーボンナノチューブ、カーボンナノホーン、無定形炭素、炭素繊維、天然黒鉛、人造黒鉛、活性炭、メソポーラス炭素等を挙げることができ、これらの複合材を用いることもできる。 Examples of the carbon used here include carbon blacks such as ketjen black and acetylene black, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanohorns, amorphous carbon, carbon fibers, natural graphite, artificial graphite, activated carbon, mesoporous carbon, and the like. Composite materials can also be used.

以上の金属酸化物ナノ粒子を高分散担持させたカーボンは場合によっては焼成して、バインダーと混錬、成型し、電気化学素子の電極、すなわち電気エネルギー貯蔵用電極とすることができるが、この電極は高出力特性、高容量特性を示す。 The carbon in which the above metal oxide nanoparticles are supported in a highly dispersed state may be calcined in some cases, kneaded with a binder, and molded to form an electrode for an electrochemical element, that is, an electrode for storing electrical energy. The electrode exhibits high output characteristics and high capacity characteristics.

ここで、この電極を用いることができる電気化学素子は、リチウムイオンを含有する電解液を用いる電気化学キャパシタ、電池、水系の電解液を用いる電気化学キャパシタ、電池である。すなわち、本発明の電極は、リチウムイオン、プロトンのレドックス反応を行うことができる。さらに金属種および酸化還元電位の異なる対極の選択によって、負極、正極として作動する。したがって、リチウムイオンを含有する電解液または水系の電解液を用い、対極として活性炭、リチウムがレドックス反応するカーボン、プロトンがレドックス反応する高分子、さらにはリチウムまたはプロトンがレドックス反応する金属酸化物を用いることによって、電気化学キャパシタ、電池を構成することができる。 Here, the electrochemical element which can use this electrode is an electrochemical capacitor using an electrolyte containing lithium ions, a battery, an electrochemical capacitor using an aqueous electrolyte, and a battery. That is, the electrode of the present invention can perform a redox reaction of lithium ions and protons. Furthermore, it operates as a negative electrode and a positive electrode by selecting a counter electrode with different metal species and redox potential. Therefore, an electrolytic solution containing lithium ions or an aqueous electrolytic solution is used, and activated carbon, carbon in which lithium is redox-reacted, polymer in which proton is redox-reactive, and metal oxide in which lithium or proton is redox-reactive are used as a counter electrode. Thus, an electrochemical capacitor and a battery can be configured.
