Abstract
Description
本発明は、誘電体セラミックス、圧電セラミックス及びその原料として有用なビスマス鉄酸化物の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a dielectric ceramic, a piezoelectric ceramic and a method for producing bismuth iron oxide useful as a raw material thereof.
Ｐｂ（Ｚｒ，Ｔｉ）Ｏ３（以下、「ＰＺＴ」という）は、優れた圧電特性を示す材料として知られているが、地球環境問題の観点から強誘電体とする機能性材料では、鉛を含む材料の使用が厳しく制限されつつある。現在、鉛を含まないＰＺＴの代替材料として、ＢｉＦｅＯ３およびそれを用いた固溶体が注目されている。 Pb (Zr, Ti) O 3 (hereinafter referred to as “PZT”) is known as a material exhibiting excellent piezoelectric characteristics. The use of containing materials is being severely restricted. At present, BiFeO 3 and a solid solution using the same are attracting attention as an alternative material for PZT not containing lead.
ＢｉＦｅＯ３の製造方法としては、例えば、下記特許文献１には、酸化ビスマス及び酸化鉄を乾式混合し、焼成する固相法が提案されている。また、下記特許文献２には硝酸鉄及び硝酸ビスマスを硝酸水溶液に溶解した溶液に、炭酸水素アンモニウムとアンモニア水を添加してビスマス鉄複合酸化物を得、次いで、ビスマス鉄複合酸化物を非イオン性高分子凝集剤で凝集させて凝集物を得、次いで、該凝集物を４００℃以上６５０℃以下で焼成する方法が提案されている。 As a method for producing BiFeO 3 , for example, Patent Document 1 below proposes a solid phase method in which bismuth oxide and iron oxide are dry-mixed and fired. Further, in Patent Document 2 below, ammonium bicarbonate and aqueous ammonia are added to a solution in which iron nitrate and bismuth nitrate are dissolved in an aqueous nitric acid solution to obtain a bismuth iron composite oxide, and then the bismuth iron composite oxide is converted into a non-ion. A method has been proposed in which agglomerates are obtained by aggregating with a functional polymer flocculant, and then the agglomerates are fired at 400 ° C. or higher and 650 ° C. or lower.
しかしながら、ＢｉＦｅＯ３は、Ｂｉの揮発性が高いことから、焼成中にＢｉが揮発し、組成がずれて不純物が生成しやすく、不純物含有量の少ない高純なものを製造することが難しいことが知られている。 However, since BiFeO 3 has high volatility of Bi, Bi is volatilized during firing, the composition tends to shift and impurities are easily generated, and it is difficult to manufacture a high purity product with a small impurity content. Are known.
このため、例えば、非特許文献１には、不純物が少ないＢｉＦｅＯ３の製造方法として、化学両論組成よりも過剰のＢｉ２Ｏ３を加えて焼成し、不純物と未反応のＢｉ２Ｏ３を硝酸で溶かして取り除く方法が提案されている。 Therefore, for example, in Non-Patent Document 1, as a method for producing BiFeO 3 with less impurities, Bi 2 O 3 in excess of the stoichiometric composition is added and baked, and impurities and unreacted Bi 2 O 3 are mixed with nitric acid. A method of removing it by melting with is proposed.
ところが、非特許文献１に開示されている製造方法では、工程が煩雑になり工業的に有利な方法とは言い難い。 However, the manufacturing method disclosed in Non-Patent Document 1 is not an industrially advantageous method because the process becomes complicated.
従って、本発明の目的は、工業的に有利な方法で、不純物含有量が少ないＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物を製造する方法を提供することにある。 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3 having a low impurity content by an industrially advantageous method.

Second process for producing bismuth iron oxide of the present invention is a method for producing a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3,
While supplying an aqueous solution (liquid A) containing bismuth ions, iron ions, and acid ions to the reaction vessel, an aqueous solution (liquid B) containing bicarbonate ions or carbonate ions and ammonium ions is supplied. The step of supplying and reacting, and at least the pH of the reaction liquid in the reaction container after supplying the entire amount of the liquid A and the liquid B to the reaction container is in the range of 5.5 to 8.5. The coprecipitate preparation step (2) for adjusting the supply amount of the liquid A and the liquid B and performing a reaction to obtain a coprecipitate,
Using the coprecipitate as a firing material, firing at 450 to 600 ° C. to obtain a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3 ;
It is a manufacturing method of the bismuth iron oxide characterized by having.
本発明の第二の形態のビスマス鉄酸化物の製造方法は、ＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物の製造方法であって、共沈体調製工程（２）と、焼成工程と、を有する。 Second process for producing bismuth iron oxide of the present invention is a method for producing a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3, has a coprecipitate preparation step (2), a firing step, the .
本発明の第二の形態のビスマス鉄酸化物の製造方法に係る共沈体調製工程（２）は、反応容器に、Ａ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給して、反応を行うに当たって、少なくとも、反応容器にＡ液及びＢ液の全量を供給した後の反応容器内の反応液のｐＨが５．５〜８．５の範囲になるように、Ａ液及びＢ液の供給量を調節して、反応を行い、共沈体を得る工程である。つまり、共沈体調製工程（２）は、Ａ液とＢ液の全量を反応容器に供給した後の反応液のｐＨが５．５〜８．５になるように、Ａ液及びＢ液を反応容器に供給する。よって、共沈体調製工程（２）では、反応開始前及びＡ液とＢ液の供給途中は、反応液のｐＨは５．５〜８．５であってもなくてもよく、Ａ液とＢ液の全量を反応容器に供給した後の反応液のｐＨが５．５〜８．５になるように、Ａ液とＢ液の供給量が調節されていればよい。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2) according to the method for producing the bismuth iron oxide of the second aspect of the present invention, the liquid B is supplied to the reaction vessel while supplying the liquid B, and the reaction is performed. Adjust the supply amount of A solution and B solution so that the pH of the reaction solution in the reaction vessel is in the range of 5.5 to 8.5 after supplying the whole amount of A solution and B solution to the reaction vessel. Thus, the reaction is performed to obtain a coprecipitate. That is, in the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the liquid A and the liquid B are adjusted so that the pH of the reaction liquid after supplying all of the liquid A and the liquid B to the reaction vessel is 5.5 to 8.5. Feed into reaction vessel. Therefore, in the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the pH of the reaction solution may or may not be 5.5 to 8.5 before the start of the reaction and during the supply of the A solution and the B solution. The supply amount of A liquid and B liquid should just be adjusted so that the pH of the reaction liquid after supplying the whole quantity of B liquid to a reaction container may be set to 5.5-8.5.
共沈体調製工程（２）に係るＡ液及びＢ液は、共沈体調製工程（１）に係るＡ液及びＢ液と同様である。 The liquid A and the liquid B according to the coprecipitate preparation step (2) are the same as the liquid A and the liquid B according to the coprecipitate preparation step (1).
共沈体調製工程（２）では、反応容器に、Ａ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給して、反応容器内で、共沈反応を行わせて、共沈体を得る。そして、共沈体調製工程（２）では、反応容器にＡ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給し、且つ、反応容器へのＡ液及びＢ液の供給量を調節することにより、反応溶液にＡ液及びＢ液の全量を供給した後の反応容器内の反応液のｐＨを、５．５〜８．５の範囲、好ましくは７．０〜８．０の範囲に調節する。反応容器にＡ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給し、且つ、反応液のｐＨを上記範囲に調節して共沈反応を行うことにより、共沈体の精密な組成制御が可能となり、このことにより、焼成を経て単相のＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物が得られる。一方、先にＡ液の全量を反応容器内に入れておき、その中に、Ｂ液を供給する場合、反対に、先にＢ液の全量を反応容器内に入れておき、その中に、Ａ液を供給する場合や、反応容器にＡ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給して反応を行ってはいるものの、Ａ液とＢ液の全量を供給した後の反応液のｐＨが上記範囲から外れている場合は、反応液中のビスマスイオン及び鉄イオンを効率的に共沈体へと用いることができなくなり精密な組成制御が困難となる。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), while supplying the liquid A to the reaction vessel, the liquid B is supplied, and a coprecipitation reaction is performed in the reaction vessel to obtain a coprecipitate. Then, in the coprecipitate preparation step (2), while supplying the liquid A to the reaction vessel, the liquid B is supplied, and the supply amount of the liquid A and the liquid B to the reaction vessel is adjusted. The pH of the reaction solution in the reaction vessel after supplying the entire amount of solution A and solution B is adjusted to a range of 5.5 to 8.5, preferably 7.0 to 8.0. By supplying the liquid B while supplying the liquid A to the reaction vessel and adjusting the pH of the reaction liquid to the above range and performing the coprecipitation reaction, it becomes possible to precisely control the composition of the coprecipitate. Thus, a bismuth iron oxide represented by single-phase BiFeO 3 is obtained through firing. On the other hand, when the total amount of the liquid A is first put in the reaction container and the liquid B is supplied therein, the total amount of the liquid B is first put in the reaction container. In the case of supplying the A liquid, or while the A liquid is supplied to the reaction vessel and the B liquid is supplied to carry out the reaction, the pH of the reaction liquid after supplying the whole amount of the A liquid and the B liquid is the above If it is out of the range, bismuth ions and iron ions in the reaction solution cannot be efficiently used for the coprecipitate, and precise composition control becomes difficult.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、反応容器へＡ液とＢ液が供給されているときの反応容器内で、Ａ液内のイオンとＢ液内のイオンとが十分に接触できるように、反応液を撹拌する。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the ions in the A liquid and the ions in the B liquid can be sufficiently brought into contact with each other in the reaction container when the A liquid and the B liquid are supplied to the reaction container. Stir the reaction.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、反応容器へのＡ液及びＢ液の供給速度及び全供給量は、Ａ液及びＢ液の全量を供給した後の反応液のｐＨが上記範囲内に維持される供給速度及び全供給量であればよく、Ａ液及びＢ液中の各イオンの濃度、反応容器のスケール、反応方式、撹拌機器設備能力、送液機器設備能力等に合わせて、適宜選択される。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the supply rate and the total supply amount of the liquid A and the liquid B to the reaction vessel are maintained within the above-mentioned range in the pH of the reaction liquid after the total amount of the liquid A and the liquid B is supplied. The supply rate and the total supply amount to be used may be selected appropriately according to the concentration of each ion in the liquid A and the liquid B, the scale of the reaction vessel, the reaction method, the stirrer equipment capacity, the liquid feed equipment capacity, etc. Is done.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、Ａ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給して、反応容器内で、共沈反応を行わせる方法としては、例えば、（１）バッチ式の反応容器に、予め、水溶媒（Ｃ液）を入れておき、Ｃ液が入れられている反応容器に、Ａ液とＢ液を供給する方法、（２）バッチ式の反応容器に、Ａ液とＢ液を供給する方法等が挙げられる。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), while supplying the liquid A, the liquid B is supplied and the coprecipitation reaction is performed in the reaction vessel. For example, (1) a batch type reaction vessel is used. A method in which an aqueous solvent (liquid C) is put in advance, and liquid A and liquid B are supplied to a reaction container in which liquid C is placed. (2) liquid A and liquid B are fed into a batch-type reaction container. The method etc. which supply are mentioned.
なお、本発明において、「反応容器に、Ａ液を供給しつつ、Ｂ液を供給する。」とは、反応容器へのＡ液の供給時間と反応容器へのＢ液の供給時間とが、完全に又は一部重なっていることを指す。そして、反応容器へのＡ液の供給時間と反応容器へのＢ液の供給時間とが、完全に重なっていること、すなわち、Ａ液の供給開始とＢ液の供給開始とが同時であり且つＡ液の供給終了とＢ液の供給終了が同時であることが、共沈体中のＢｉとＦｅの組成調節が容易になる点で好ましいが、本発明の効果を損なわない程度であれば、完全に重なっていなくてもよい。 In the present invention, “supplying solution B while supplying solution A to the reaction vessel” means that the supply time of solution A to the reaction vessel and the supply time of solution B to the reaction vessel are Refers to complete or partial overlap. And the supply time of the A liquid to the reaction vessel and the supply time of the B liquid to the reaction vessel are completely overlapped, that is, the supply start of the A solution and the supply start of the B solution are simultaneous and The end of the supply of the A liquid and the end of the supply of the B liquid are preferable in terms of facilitating the adjustment of the composition of Bi and Fe in the coprecipitate. It does not have to overlap.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、反応容器内の反応液の温度、すなわち、共沈反応の反応温度は、好ましくは５０℃以下、特に好ましくは１５〜３５℃である。反応容器内の反応液の温度が上記範囲であることにより、十分な原料の溶解性が得られ、金属イオンの反応性が高くなり、精密な共沈体の組成制御をし易くなるため、設備管理、工程管理に有益となる。また、アンモニア成分の揮発が抑制され、臭気対策等の作業面でも大きなメリットを得ることができる。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the temperature of the reaction solution in the reaction vessel, that is, the reaction temperature of the coprecipitation reaction is preferably 50 ° C. or less, particularly preferably 15 to 35 ° C. Since the temperature of the reaction solution in the reaction vessel is within the above range, sufficient raw material solubility is obtained, the reactivity of metal ions is increased, and precise coprecipitate composition control is facilitated. Useful for management and process management. Further, the volatilization of the ammonia component is suppressed, and a great merit can be obtained in terms of work such as odor countermeasures.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、モル換算のビスマスイオン及び鉄イオンの合計の全供給量（ｍｏｌ）に対する重炭酸イオン及び炭酸イオンの合計の全供給量（ｍｏｌ）の比（（重炭酸イオン＋炭酸イオン）／（ビスマスイオン＋鉄イオン））は、好ましくは０．５〜２．１、特に好ましくは０．５１〜１．０である。モル換算のビスマスイオン及び鉄イオンの合計の全供給量（ｍｏｌ）に対する重炭酸イオン及び炭酸イオンの合計の全供給量（ｍｏｌ）の比（（重炭酸イオン＋炭酸イオン）／（ビスマスイオン＋鉄イオン））が上記範囲であることにより、焼成して得られるビスマス鉄酸化物が単相になり易い共沈体が得られる点で、好ましい。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the ratio of the total supply amount (mol) of bicarbonate ions and carbonate ions to the total supply amount (mol) of bismuth ions and iron ions in terms of moles ((bicarbonate ions + Carbonic acid ion) / (bismuth ion + iron ion)) is preferably 0.5 to 2.1, particularly preferably 0.51 to 1.0. Ratio of total supply amount (mol) of bicarbonate ion and carbonate ion to total supply amount (mol) of total bismuth ion and iron ion in mol ((bicarbonate ion + carbonate ion) / (bismuth ion + iron When the ion)) is in the above range, it is preferable in that a coprecipitate easily obtained when the bismuth iron oxide obtained by firing becomes a single phase is obtained.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、モル換算の酸イオンの全供給量（ｍｏｌ）に対するアンモニウムイオンの全供給量（ｍｏｌ）の比（アンモニウムイオン／酸イオン）は、好ましくは１．００〜２．００、特に好ましくは１．０２〜１．６０である。モル換算の酸イオンの全供給量（ｍｏｌ）に対するアンモニウムイオンの全供給量（ｍｏｌ）の比（アンモニウムイオン／酸イオン）が上記範囲であることにより、反応液のｐＨを所望の範囲に制御し易くなり、金属イオンの反応性が高くなり、精密な共沈体の組成制御がし易くなる。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), the ratio (ammonium ion / acid ion) of the total supply amount (mol) of ammonium ion to the total supply amount (mol) of acid ion in terms of mole is preferably 1.00-2. 0.00, particularly preferably 1.02-1.60. The ratio of the total supply amount (mol) of ammonium ions to the total supply amount (mol) of acid ions in terms of mole (ammonium ions / acid ions) is within the above range, so that the pH of the reaction solution is controlled within a desired range. It becomes easy, the reactivity of a metal ion becomes high, and it becomes easy to perform precise composition control of a coprecipitate.
共沈体調製工程（２）において、Ａ液及びＢ液の供給速度は、一定であることが好ましいが、反応後の反応容器内の反応液のｐＨを所望の範囲内で維持できるのであれば、Ａ液又はＢ液の供給速度は一定でなくてもよい。 In the coprecipitate preparation step (2), it is preferable that the supply rates of the liquid A and the liquid B are constant, as long as the pH of the reaction liquid in the reaction vessel after the reaction can be maintained within a desired range. The supply rate of liquid A or liquid B may not be constant.
共沈体調製工程（２）を、バッチ式の反応容器を用いて行った場合、反応容器へのＡ液及びＢ液の供給終了後、引き続き反応液の撹拌を継続する熟成を行ってもよい。熟成を行うことにより、反応液中の未反応成分を低減することができる。熟成を行うときの反応液のｐＨは、好ましくは５．５〜８．５、特に好ましくは７．０〜８．０である。熟成の際の反応液のｐＨが上記範囲であることにより、析出したビスマス成分及び鉄成分が再溶解し難く、組成変化が起こり難く、高収率で共沈体を得ることができる。熟成の際の反応液の温度は、５５℃以下、好ましくは１５〜３５℃である。熟成温度が上記範囲であることにより、熟成の効果が得られ易い。 When the coprecipitate preparation step (2) is performed using a batch-type reaction vessel, after completion of the supply of the liquid A and the liquid B to the reaction vessel, aging may be performed to continue the stirring of the reaction solution. . By aging, unreacted components in the reaction solution can be reduced. The pH of the reaction solution when aging is preferably 5.5 to 8.5, and particularly preferably 7.0 to 8.0. When the pH of the reaction solution at the time of aging is in the above range, the precipitated bismuth component and iron component are difficult to redissolve, composition change hardly occurs, and a coprecipitate can be obtained in high yield. The temperature of the reaction solution during aging is 55 ° C. or less, preferably 15 to 35 ° C. When the aging temperature is in the above range, the aging effect is easily obtained.
共沈体調製工程（２）を行った後、常法により固液分離し、共沈体を得、必要に応じて更に熟成を行ったときは、熟成を行った後、常法により固液分離し、共沈体を得、必要により、共沈体の水洗、乾燥を行う。 After performing the coprecipitate preparation step (2), solid-liquid separation is performed by a conventional method to obtain a coprecipitate, and when further aging is performed as necessary, after aging, the solid-liquid is prepared by a conventional method. Separate and obtain a coprecipitate, and if necessary, wash and dry the coprecipitate.

This is a step of obtaining bismuth iron oxide. The firing step according to the method for producing the bismuth iron oxide of the second aspect of the present invention is the first step of the present invention except that the coprecipitate obtained by performing the coprecipitate preparation step (2) is used as the firing raw material. It is the same as that of the baking process which concerns on the manufacturing method of the bismuth iron oxide of the form.
焼成工程における焼成温度は、４５０〜６００℃、好ましくは５００〜５５０℃である。焼成温度が上記範囲であることにより、結晶性が高く、Ｘ線回折的にＢｉ２Ｆｅ４Ｏ９やＢｉ２Ｏ３等の不純物のピークが少ないＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物が得られる。焼成時間は、適宜選択されるが、粒径の揃った主相率の高いＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物が得られる点で、好ましくは３時間以上、特に好ましくは５〜３０時間である。焼成雰囲気は、特に制限されず、大気雰囲気、酸素雰囲気のいずれでもよい。 The firing temperature in the firing step is 450 to 600 ° C, preferably 500 to 550 ° C. When the firing temperature is within the above range, a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3 having high crystallinity and few impurity peaks such as Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 and Bi 2 O 3 in X-ray diffraction is obtained.

焼成工程では、焼成を複数回行ってもよい。例えば、１回共沈体の焼成を行い、次いで、焼成物を冷却及び粉砕後、再び焼成物の粉砕物を焼成してもよい。 In the firing step, firing may be performed a plurality of times. For example, the coprecipitate may be fired once, and then the fired product may be cooled and ground, and then the fired product may be fired again.
焼成工程を行った後、焼成物を適宜冷却し、必要に応じて、粉砕、解砕、分級等を行い、ＢｉＦｅＯ３で表されるビスマス鉄酸化物を得る。 After performing the firing step, the fired product is appropriately cooled and, if necessary, pulverized, crushed, classified, etc., to obtain a bismuth iron oxide represented by BiFeO 3 .

The larger the reaction scale, the more easily the molar ratio of bismuth and iron in the coprecipitate obtained by performing the coprecipitate preparation step (1) or (2) becomes larger. This modification of the method for producing bismuth iron oxide is preferable in that the molar ratio of bismuth and iron in the coprecipitate can be close to 1.000. That is, in the method for producing bismuth iron oxide of the present invention, aging is performed after the coprecipitate preparation step (1) or (2) or following the coprecipitate preparation step (1) or (2). After that, a part of the coprecipitate is collected from the reaction solution, and the collected material is analyzed. During the analysis of the collected material, the reaction solution after the coprecipitate preparation step (1) or (2) is left without stirring or is aged. Then, when the analysis of the collected material is finished, based on the result, the liquid D is supplied while stirring the reaction liquid, and the molar ratio adjusting step is performed. Next, the calcining step is performed using the molar ratio adjusting coprecipitate obtained by performing the molar ratio adjusting step as a firing raw material.
