The present invention relates to a method, a cosmetic, a haptic agent, a cleaning agent based on adsorptiveness, and the like, and a method for producing the same, using the static adsorptive properties of the clay mineral fine particles.

本発明品は、沖縄本島南部に分布する泥灰岩(海シルト)を原料とするが、本発明の発明者が先に提案した特開2002-29924号に記載のとおり、その化学的組成は雲母(48〜56%)、スメクタイト(28〜35%)、クロライトおよびカオリナイト(14〜18%)などからなる。 The product of the present invention is derived from marlstone (sea silt) distributed in the southern part of Okinawa Main Island. As described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-29924 previously proposed by the inventor of the present invention, the chemical composition is It consists of mica (48-56%), smectite (28-35%), chlorite and kaolinite (14-18%).

ところが、特願2003−278656号に記載のとおり、前記の泥岩微細粒子の特異な特質に着目し、種々の試験を行なっている間に、泥岩微細粒子を用いた粘土パックを皮膚に施した場合、パックの表面と隣接する皮膚との間にも数10mVの電圧が検知された。腱鞘炎や関節炎などの場合、強い疼痛のため伸展や屈曲が困難な症状が現れるが、異常の存在する手指や関節などにこの粘土パックを施したところ、痛みが即座に薄れ、手指や関節の伸展や屈曲も可能となる効果が現れた。このように、沖縄本島南部に分布する島尻泥岩(方言名はクチャ)の粘土は比較的強い静電気を発生し、この粘土パックを皮膚に施すことで、鎮痛作用や代謝促進効果などの顕著な治療効果があることが確認された。
特開2002-29924 特願2003−278656
However, as described in Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-278656, when a clay pack using mudstone fine particles was applied to the skin while paying attention to the unique characteristics of the mudstone fine particles, while conducting various tests A voltage of several tens of mV was also detected between the surface of the pack and the adjacent skin. In cases of tendonitis or arthritis, symptoms that make it difficult to stretch and flex due to strong pain appear, but when this clay pack is applied to abnormally existing fingers or joints, the pain immediately fades and the fingers and joints extend. And the effect of being able to bend appeared. In this way, the clay of Shimajiri mudstone (the dialect name is Kucha) distributed in the southern part of the main island of Okinawa generates relatively strong static electricity. It was confirmed that there was an effect.
JP2002-29924 Japanese Patent Application 2003-278656

前記のような強い吸着性により皮膚の汚れ成分や歯の汚れに付着し、水洗で簡単に落とせる洗浄効果を持つ。この吸着の機序には、この鉱物微細粒子の持つ高い陽イオン交換容量が関連しており、比較的強い荷電を自然に有することが分った。そこでこの粘土鉱物粒子の内、より荷電の明瞭な粒子を電気泳動装置による通電で選択的に採取し、製品の特長を増強させる製法を実現する。 Due to the strong adsorptivity as described above, it adheres to the dirt components of the skin and dirt of the teeth, and has a cleaning effect that can be easily removed by washing with water. This adsorption mechanism is related to the high cation exchange capacity of the mineral fine particles, and it has been found that it naturally has a relatively strong charge. Therefore, we will realize a production method that enhances the features of the product by selectively collecting particles with clear charge from the clay mineral particles by electrification with an electrophoresis device.

本発明の技術的課題は、このような問題に着目し、海シルトの微細粒子の特性をより効果的に発揮できる粘土微細粒子を実現することにある。また、この粘土で作ったパックを皮膚に施すことで電圧が生じ体内電流が流れ、瞬間的に鎮痛効果を示す事も分った。この静電気発生の特性をより有効に引き出す工夫として電解質を加えることで新しいタイプの鎮痛湿布薬の開発が出来た。また粘土粒子自体がマイナスに荷電しており、溶液を還元化す
る作用を持つだけでなく、電圧・電流を流すことで溶液がより強く還元性を発揮する事が分かり、マイナスイオン発生効果の応用範囲が拡大した。
The technical problem of the present invention is to realize such fine clay particles that can effectively exhibit the characteristics of the fine particles of sea silt, paying attention to such problems. It was also found that applying a pack made of this clay to the skin produced a voltage, causing current in the body to flow and showing an analgesic effect instantaneously. A new type of analgesic poultice has been developed by adding an electrolyte as a device to extract the characteristics of static electricity generation more effectively. In addition, the clay particles themselves are negatively charged, which not only has the effect of reducing the solution, but it can also be seen that the solution exhibits stronger reductivity by applying voltage and current. The range has been expanded.

この泥灰岩を構成している主な粘土鉱物はいずれも陽イオン交換容量(CEC )の高い鉱物として知られており、これら鉱物の表面に陰性の電荷を有するので、これを原料とする外皮用剤や美容料が製造出来る外に、歯磨き、貴金属類や台所用等の洗剤等とその吸着洗浄剤の製造方法、並びに当該粘土鉱物が有する荷電を利用した身体深部組織への静電気治療の効果を持つ医薬品の製造、摘出臓器の細胞の生存時間を延長させる組織保存材や細胞培地、還元水等とその製造、更には陰イオンを発生する性質を特徴とする製品とその製造方法などが本発明に含まれる。 The main clay minerals that make up this tuff are all known as minerals with high cation exchange capacity (CEC), and the surface of these minerals has a negative charge. In addition to manufacturing cosmetics and cosmetics, toothpaste, precious metals, detergents for kitchens, etc., and methods for producing adsorbent cleaning agents, and the effect of electrostatic treatment on deep body tissues using the charge of the clay minerals This includes the manufacture of pharmaceuticals that have the characteristics, tissue preservation materials that extend the survival time of cells in the isolated organs, cell culture media, reduced water, and their production, as well as products that have the property of generating anions and their production methods. Included in the invention.

本発明の技術的課題は次のような手段によって解決される。請求項1は、沖縄本島南部地域の特殊土壌とされる泥灰岩の海シルトの微細粒子の表面が陰性の荷電を有していることを利用し、
沈殿槽に入れた海シルトの水懸濁液中の上側に陰極を、下側に陽極をそれぞれ配置して、電気泳動法で陰極と陽極との間に電圧をかけ電流を流すことによって、マイナスに荷電している微細粒子を直流電気による電気泳動で陽極側に凝集・沈殿させ、その後に取り出して乾燥させること、
前記沈殿槽中の上層の水を上部の排液口から排水する際に、陰極側に泳動で集積する有機物などの異物と結合した部分も分離排出して除去すること、
前記沈殿槽の前段に設けた原料採取用沈殿槽に入れた原料海シルトの水懸濁液中の所望の水位に採取口を設定することによって、沈降できずに浮遊している上側の粒子サイズのより小さな微細粒子を前記採取口から後段の前記沈殿槽に移送すると共に、有機物などの異物は液面に浮遊させること、
を特徴とする超微細粘土鉱物の製造方法である。
沖縄本島南部地域の特殊土壌とされるシルト岩の構成鉱物粒子の水懸濁液を作成し、この中の約5ミクロン以下の微細粒子をフィルターで濾過・分別してから、沈殿によって微細粒子分画を採取する水簸法に準じた方法を用いる。しかし、荷電を有する超微細粒子は水中での沈殿速度が遅く長い作業時間が掛かり、フィルタープレスを使用するとフィルターから漏れるサイズのため、作業時間短縮と微細粒子を捕集する目的で、請求項1のように、電気泳動法で電圧をかけて電流を流し微細粒子の凝集と沈降速度を速める方法を採ると、マイナスに荷電している微細粒子を陽極側に凝集・沈殿させ、その後に取り出して乾燥できる。
また、前記沈殿槽中の上層の水を上部の排液口から排水する際に、陰極側に泳動で集積する有機物などの異物と結合した部分も分離排出して除去することによって、粒子サイズによる分別精製により粒子径別に分離・採取することと、異物と結合した部分の分離除去が可能となる。
更に、海シルト岩の中から所望の粒子サイズを分離採取するために、複数の沈殿槽を設けると共に、前段の原料採取沈殿槽中の所望の水位に採取口を設定し、採取した海シルトを後段の沈殿槽に移送する。原料採取沈殿槽中に各種粒子サイズの海シルトを含む水懸濁液を入れて静置すると、粒子サイズの大きい粒子ほど沈降速度が速く、粒子サイズの小さい粒子ほど沈降しにくい。したがって、原料採取沈殿槽中の下寄りに採取口を設置すると、粒子サイズの大きな粒子が採取でき、水面寄りに採取口を設置すると、粒子サイズのより小さな粒子を採取して、次の段の沈殿槽に移送することができる。
前段の原料採取沈殿槽では、有機物などの異物は液面に浮遊させるので、前記の採取口に吸入される恐れはない。
The technical problem of the present invention is solved by the following means. Claim 1 utilizes the fact that the surface of fine particles of marlstone sea silt, which is a special soil in the southern region of Okinawa main island, has a negative charge,
By placing a cathode on the upper side and an anode on the lower side in an aqueous suspension of sea silt in a sedimentation tank, and applying a voltage between the cathode and the anode by electrophoresis, a negative current is passed. Agglomerated and precipitated fine particles that are charged to the anode side by electrophoresis with direct current electricity, then taken out and dried,
When draining the upper layer of water in the settling tank from the upper drainage port, separating and removing the portion combined with foreign substances such as organic substances accumulated by migration on the cathode side,
By setting the sampling port at a desired water level in the water suspension of the raw material sea silt placed in the raw material collecting settling tank provided in the preceding stage of the settling tank, the upper particle size floating without being settled The smaller fine particles of the above are transferred from the sampling port to the subsequent precipitation tank, and foreign matters such as organic matter are floated on the liquid surface,
Is a method for producing ultrafine clay minerals.
An aqueous suspension of siltstone constituent mineral particles, which are considered to be special soil in the southern part of the main island of Okinawa, is prepared. Fine particles of approximately 5 microns or less are filtered and separated by a filter, and then the fine particles are separated by precipitation. Use a method in accordance with the Minamata method for collecting potato. However, since charged ultrafine particles have a slow sedimentation rate in water and take a long working time, and use a filter press to leak from the filter, the purpose is to shorten the working time and collect fine particles. If a method is applied to apply an electric current by electrophoresis to increase the agglomeration and settling speed of fine particles, the negatively charged fine particles are agglomerated and precipitated on the anode side and then taken out. Can be dried.
In addition, when draining the upper layer water in the settling tank from the upper drainage port, the portion combined with foreign substances such as organic substances accumulated by electrophoresis on the cathode side is separated and discharged to remove, depending on the particle size. Separation and collection by particle size by separation and purification, and separation and removal of the portion combined with foreign substances are possible.
Furthermore, in order to separate and collect the desired particle size from the sea silt rock, a plurality of sedimentation tanks are provided, and a sampling port is set at a desired water level in the raw material collection sedimentation tank in the previous stage, and the collected sea silt is collected. Transfer to the subsequent settling tank. When an aqueous suspension containing sea silt of various particle sizes is placed in a raw material collection sedimentation tank and left to stand, the sedimentation rate is faster for particles with a larger particle size, and sedimentation is more difficult for particles with a smaller particle size. Therefore, if a sampling port is installed in the lower part of the raw material collection sedimentation tank, particles with a large particle size can be collected, and if a sampling port is installed near the water surface, particles with a smaller particle size are collected and the next stage is collected. It can be transferred to a settling tank.
In the raw material collection / precipitation tank in the previous stage, foreign substances such as organic substances are floated on the liquid surface, so there is no fear of being sucked into the collection port.

請求項2は、前記の採取口が上下移動可能であることを特徴とする請求項1に記載の超微細粘土鉱物の製造方法である。A second aspect of the present invention is the method for producing an ultrafine clay mineral according to the first aspect, wherein the sampling port is movable up and down.
図9に示す矢印のように上下移動可能な採取口8を設置し、原料採取沈殿槽1a中に原料海シルト岩の水懸濁液を入れておく。そして、粒子サイズのより小さな微細粒子を採取するには、採取口8を上側に移動させると、沈降できずに浮遊している上側の微細粒子がポンプアップされて、鎖線の原料注入管4aで後段の沈殿槽1に移送され、電気泳動法による吸着凝集と異物の分離除去が行われる。なお、液面Lに浮遊している有機物などの異物は採取口8に吸入されないので、好都合である。A sampling port 8 that can move up and down as shown by an arrow in FIG. 9 is installed, and a water suspension of the raw material sea siltstone is placed in the raw material collection and precipitation tank 1a. In order to collect fine particles having a smaller particle size, when the collection port 8 is moved upward, the fine particles on the upper side that are floating without being settled are pumped up, and the raw material injection pipe 4a of the chain line is used. It is transferred to the subsequent settling tank 1 where adsorption aggregation and electrophoretic separation and removal are performed by electrophoresis. It should be noted that foreign matters such as organic substances floating on the liquid surface L are not sucked into the sampling port 8, which is convenient.

請求項3は、海シルトの陰性に荷電した微細粒子の電気化学的特性により電気的吸着性を発揮する、請求項1または請求項2に記載の方法で製造した超微細粘土鉱物を用いて製造してなることを特徴とする歯磨き、皮膚パック用化粧品、皮膚用クレンジングジェル、頭髪用シャンプー又は台所用器具、貴金属若しくは鏡面磨きに用いる洗浄剤である。Claim 3 is produced using the ultrafine clay mineral produced by the method according to claim 1 or 2 which exhibits electroadsorption due to the electrochemical characteristics of the negatively charged fine particles of sea silt. A cleaning agent for use in toothpaste, skin pack cosmetics, skin cleansing gel, hair shampoo or kitchen appliance, precious metal or mirror polish.
このように、海シルトの陰性に荷電した微細粒子は、有機物等で汚染されている表面を洗浄する性質を有するため、海シルトの微細粒子を利用して、歯磨きその他の洗剤を実現できる。表面洗浄剤としては、歯磨きに止まらず、台所などの水周りや器具洗浄剤、貴金属その他の鏡面磨き等に強い効果を発揮させることが出来る。なお、洗浄と同時に脱臭効果も発揮する。As described above, the negatively charged fine particles of sea silt have a property of cleaning the surface contaminated with organic substances and the like, and therefore, toothpaste and other detergents can be realized using the fine particles of sea silt. As a surface cleaning agent, it is possible not only to brush teeth but also to exert a strong effect on water around kitchens, appliance cleaning agents, precious metals and other mirror polishing. In addition, the deodorizing effect is exhibited simultaneously with the cleaning.
従来の化粧品関係では、皮膚に適用する粘土系化粧料や美容パック料などの場合、あくまでも直接触れる表皮細胞や毛髪、皮膚組織に対する粘土内に含まれるミネラルなどの栄養効果を期待したものである。それに対し、本発明の素材は、今迄の発明では適用されていないほど微細な粒子部分(粒度)を用いることで、その物理的吸着作用と荷電による効果を利用出来る化粧品や歯磨き、台所用の洗剤等が製造出来る。例えば顔面などの皮膚パック用化粧品や皮膚用クレンジングジェル、頭髪用シャンプーなどにも適用できる。In the conventional cosmetics, in the case of clay-based cosmetics and cosmetic packs applied to the skin, nutritional effects such as minerals contained in the clay on the epidermal cells, hair, and skin tissue that are directly touched are expected. On the other hand, the material of the present invention uses a fine particle portion (particle size) that has not been applied so far in the present invention, so that the physical adsorption action and the effect of charging can be used for cosmetics, toothpaste, and kitchen use. Detergents can be manufactured. For example, it can also be applied to cosmetics for skin packs such as the face, skin cleansing gel, shampoo for hair and the like.

請求項4は、請求項1または請求項2に記載の方法で製造した海シルトの超微細粘土鉱物を西洋紙の素材として使用し、粘土質の層を設けることによって、荷電によりイオン発生効果を持つ性質を利用可能としたことを特徴とする壁紙である。According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the sea silt ultrafine clay mineral produced by the method according to the first or second aspect of the present invention is used as a raw material for western paper, and an ion generation effect is obtained by charging by providing a clayey layer. It is a wallpaper characterized by making it possible to use the properties it has.
微細な粘土粒子は、西洋紙の素材として製造に欠かせないが、本発明の海シルトの微細な鉱物粒子は静電気を発生するので、この特長を利用して陰イオンを放出する紙を製造する事が出来る。この紙を部屋の壁紙などに用いると、マイナスイオン発生効果により脱臭効果や空気清浄化が可能になる。なお、海シルト粒子の懸濁液を電気泳動すると還元性によってpH10程度の塩基性となり、健康に良いとされるアルカリイオン水となる性質を有しており、これを利用した還元水製造にも応用できる。Fine clay particles are indispensable for the production of western paper, but the fine mineral particles of sea silt of the present invention generate static electricity, and this feature is used to produce paper that releases anions. I can do it. When this paper is used for wallpaper in a room, the deodorizing effect and air purification can be achieved by the negative ion generation effect. When the suspension of sea silt particles is electrophoresed, it becomes basic at about pH 10 due to its reducibility and has the property of becoming alkaline ionized water, which is considered good for health. Can be applied.

請求項5は、請求項1または請求項2に記載の方法で製造した海シルトの超微細粘土鉱物に水を加えて粘調な粘土とした状態で皮膚表面に塗布し、アルミニウム、亜鉛、金、銀などの金属で覆うと、金属側が陰性に荷電し対側に対して電圧を生じる性質を利用してなることを特徴とする細胞賦活剤、鎮痛湿布剤、皮膚パック用化粧品、皮膚用クレンジングジェル又は頭髪用シャンプーである。Claim 5 is applied to the skin surface in a state where water is added to the ultra fine clay mineral of sea silt produced by the method of claim 1 or claim 2 to form a viscous clay, and aluminum, zinc, gold Cell activators, analgesic poultices, skin pack cosmetics, skin cleansings that use the property that, when covered with a metal such as silver, the metal side is negatively charged and generates a voltage on the opposite side Gel or hair shampoo.
このように、湿布で鎮痛効果を上げる場合は、アルミ箔やアルミニウム蒸着をしたフィルムや布で粘土を覆うことで電圧を高める効果が約10倍に上がる。湿布に限らず、組織培養などにおける細胞代謝賦活剤でも同様である。海シルト微細粒子の表面に陰性の電荷を有するのを利用して、各種の外皮用剤や美容料の製造も可能である。As described above, when the analgesic effect is increased with a compress, the effect of increasing the voltage is increased about 10 times by covering the clay with an aluminum foil or a film or cloth with aluminum vapor deposition. The same applies not only to compresses but also to cell metabolism activators in tissue culture and the like. By using the negative charge on the surface of the sea silt fine particles, various skin preparations and cosmetics can be produced.

請求項6は、請求項1または請求項2に記載の方法で製造した海シルトの超微細粘土鉱物に水分を加えて粘調な粘土状にし、食塩や塩化カリウムから成る電解質を水分に加える方法でイオン交換性および導電性を高めてなることを特徴とする請求項5に記載の細胞賦活剤、鎮痛湿布剤、皮膚パック用化粧品、皮膚用クレンジングジェル又は頭髪用シャンプーである。Claim 6 is a method in which water is added to the ultra fine clay mineral of sea silt produced by the method of claim 1 or claim 2 to form a viscous clay, and an electrolyte comprising salt or potassium chloride is added to the water. 6. The cell activator, analgesic poultice, skin pack cosmetic, skin cleansing gel or hair shampoo according to claim 5, wherein the ion exchange property and conductivity are enhanced.
このように、塩類などの電解質を加えて導電性を高くすることで、電気的作用がより高まる。したがって特に、粘着性を有する基剤を入れて膏剤等を製造する場合に有効である。As described above, by adding an electrolyte such as a salt to increase the conductivity, the electrical effect is further increased. Therefore, it is particularly effective when a plaster or the like is produced using a base having adhesiveness.

以上のような洗剤や建築素材、細胞賦活剤、皮膚貼付剤などを製造するには、海シルトの超微細粒子を効率的に量産する必要があるが、荷電を有する超微細粒子は水中での沈殿速度が遅く長い作業時間が掛かり、フィルタープレスを使用するとフィルターから漏れを生じる。In order to produce detergents, building materials, cell activators, skin patches, etc. as described above, it is necessary to efficiently mass-produce ultra fine particles of sea silt. The sedimentation rate is slow and it takes a long working time, and when a filter press is used, leakage occurs from the filter.
そこで請求項1のように、作業時間短縮と微細粒子を捕集する目的で、電気泳動法で電圧をかけて電流を流し、海シルトの微細粒子の凝集と沈降速度を速める方法で解決できる。このとき、上側の陰極側に泳動で集積する異物と結合した部分を上部の排液口から排水し分離除去するので、精製が行われる。Therefore, as described in claim 1, for the purpose of shortening the working time and collecting the fine particles, it is possible to solve the problem by increasing the aggregation and sedimentation rate of the sea silt fine particles by applying a voltage by electrophoresis and applying a current. At this time, the portion coupled with the foreign matter accumulated by electrophoresis on the upper cathode side is drained from the upper drainage port and separated and removed, so that purification is performed.
さらに、所望の粒子サイズを捕集するには、沈殿槽を複数段にして、粒子サイズによる沈降速度の違いと電気泳動法を併用するとより時間短縮可能となる。この際、前段の原料採取沈殿槽中の上位に採取口を設定しておけば、粒子サイズのより小さな粒子を採取でき、下位に採取口を設定すれば、粒子サイズのより大きな粒子を採取できる。したがって、採取口の設置高さに応じて、任意の粒子サイズを採取できる。Furthermore, in order to collect a desired particle size, the time can be further shortened by using a plurality of precipitation tanks and using a difference in sedimentation speed depending on the particle size and electrophoresis. At this time, if a sampling port is set in the upper part of the raw material collection and sedimentation tank in the previous stage, particles having a smaller particle size can be collected, and if a sampling port is set in the lower part, particles having a larger particle size can be collected. . Therefore, any particle size can be collected according to the installation height of the collection port.
前段の原料採取沈殿槽では、有機物などの異物は液面に浮遊させるので、前記の採取口に吸入される恐れはない。In the raw material collection / precipitation tank in the previous stage, foreign substances such as organic substances are floated on the liquid surface, so there is no fear of being sucked into the collection port.

請求項2のように、図9の採取口8を上下移動可能にしておくと、採取口8を上側に移動させて上側の粒子サイズのより小さな微細粒子をポンプアップして後段の沈殿槽1に移送できる。If the sampling port 8 of FIG. 9 is movable up and down as in claim 2, the sampling port 8 is moved upward to pump up the finer particles having a smaller particle size on the upper side, and the subsequent sedimentation tank 1 Can be transported to.

請求項3のように、海シルトの陰性に帯電した微細粒子は、物理的吸着作用と荷電による効果を利用出来る歯磨きや台所用器具の洗剤等が製造出来、例えば顔面などの皮膚パック用化粧品や皮膚用クレンジングジェル、頭髪用シャンプーなどにも適用できる。As in claim 3, the negatively charged fine particles of sea silt can be used to produce a toothpaste and a kitchen appliance detergent that can utilize the physical adsorption action and the effect of the charge, such as cosmetics for skin packs such as the face, It can also be applied to skin cleansing gels and shampoos for hair.
また、請求項4のように、海シルトの微細粒子を含む粘土質の層を設けてなる素材を部屋の壁紙などに用いると、マイナスイオン発生効果により脱臭効果や空気清浄化が可能になる。In addition, when a material provided with a clayey layer containing fine particles of sea silt is used as wallpaper for a room or the like as in claim 4, a deodorizing effect and air purification can be achieved by the negative ion generation effect.

請求項5のように、アルミ箔やアルミニウム蒸着をしたフィルムや布で粘土を覆うことで電圧を高める効果が約10倍に上がるので、湿布で鎮痛効果を上げる場合や組織培養などのような細胞代謝賦活剤に有効である。さらに、海シルト微細粒子の表面に陰性の電荷を有するのを利用して、各種の外皮用剤や美容料の製造も可能である。また、請求項6のように、塩類や保湿料を加えて導電性を高くすることで、より効果が高まるので、粘着性を有する基剤を入れた膏剤などに有効である。As in claim 5, the effect of increasing the voltage by covering the clay with aluminum foil or aluminum-deposited film or cloth is increased about 10 times. Effective for metabolic activators. Furthermore, by utilizing the negative charge on the surface of the sea silt fine particles, various skin preparations and cosmetics can be produced. Further, as described in claim 6, by adding salts and a moisturizing agent to increase the conductivity, the effect is further enhanced, so that it is effective for a plaster containing an adhesive base.

化粧品として開発された皮膚パックに、予想以上に強力な洗浄効果やニキビ消失などの効果の存在が認められ、この効果の主要な作用機序は粘土鉱物が超微粒子のため有する物理化学的吸着性と、微細粒子の結晶表面に存在する静電気によるイオン交換性によるものであり、この目的で使用された前例のない効果である。Skin packs developed as cosmetics have stronger cleaning effects and acne disappearance than expected, and the main mechanism of action is the physicochemical adsorption of clay minerals due to ultrafine particles. This is due to the ion exchange property due to static electricity existing on the crystal surface of the fine particles, which is an unprecedented effect used for this purpose.

そこでこの効果をより強く引き出すことで応用製品をより広く開発出来る。鎮痛薬を用いないで強い鎮痛効果を示す膏剤は今までに無く、薬害もなく安全で優れた製品となる可能性がある。現在市販されている痛み止めの湿布薬の組成は樹脂系の素材と粘着性膏剤、鎮痛剤などを混合して製造された製品であるため、これとの共通性はない。実際に腱鞘炎や変形性関節症などの痛みを伴った患部に使用して著効を見ているが、在来の湿布に比較すると、この製品には明らかに速効性を持つ優れた鎮痛効果が認められた。Therefore, the application products can be developed more widely by drawing out this effect more strongly. There has never been a salve that exhibits a strong analgesic effect without the use of analgesics, and there is a possibility that it will be a safe and excellent product without any harmful effects. The composition of painkiller poultices currently on the market is a product produced by mixing resin-based materials with adhesive plasters, analgesics, etc., and therefore has no commonality with this. Although it has been used effectively for painful affected areas such as tenosynovitis and osteoarthritis, this product clearly has an excellent analgesic effect that is quicker than conventional compresses. Admitted.

次に本発明による荷電粘土鉱物粒子とその製造方法が実際上どのように具体化されるか実施形態を説明する。この泥灰岩(クチャ)の主体は粘土鉱物で、5 ミクロン以下の微細粒子が約60から80%程度を占めるため、古くから行われてきた水簸法とフィルターを使って濃縮する分離技術が精製法として使われている。しかし、この粘土粒子には極度に細かいサブミクロンレベルの微粒子も多く、フィルタープレスの濾布から漏れる傾向がある。そのため、従来の技術としては塩酸などで酸性にして凝集させた後に濾過する方法が用いられている。 Next, an embodiment of how the charged clay mineral particles and the method for producing the same according to the present invention are actualized will be described. The main body of this mudstone is clay mineral, and fine particles less than 5 microns occupy about 60 to 80%. Used as a purification method. However, these clay particles have a lot of extremely fine submicron-level fine particles and tend to leak from the filter cloth of the filter press. Therefore, as a conventional technique, a method of acidifying with hydrochloric acid or the like and aggregating it is used.

しかし、本発明の場合は、この微細粒子を沈殿させる手法として、酸を添加することなく、電気泳動法で電気を流して荷電した鉱物微粒子を凝集沈殿させる方法を開発した。この
際には溶液は還元されるため表面活性を有する塩基性を示す。図1から図4は電気泳動による粘土微細粒子の沈殿実験の様子である。まず、図1のように、2本の透明容器に粘土懸濁液を入れておく。図1は通電開始前の状況である。通電開始して1時間経過すると、図2のように、電気泳動の作用を受けて沈殿が促進された状態の粘土懸濁液の状況で、下部に鉱物微粒子が沈殿し、その分だけ全体的に透明度が増している。
However, in the case of the present invention, as a technique for precipitating the fine particles, a method has been developed in which charged mineral fine particles are agglomerated and precipitated by applying electricity by electrophoresis without adding an acid. At this time, since the solution is reduced, it exhibits basicity having surface activity. FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 show the state of clay fine particle precipitation experiments by electrophoresis. First, as shown in FIG. 1, the clay suspension is put in two transparent containers. FIG. 1 shows the situation before the start of energization. When 1 hour has passed since the start of energization, as shown in FIG. 2, in the state of a clay suspension in which precipitation has been promoted by the action of electrophoresis, mineral fine particles are precipitated at the bottom, and the entire amount corresponding to that amount Transparency has increased.

図3は、電気泳動開始3時間後の粘土微細粒子の沈殿状況で、全体的に透明度がさらに増し、その分だけ底部の沈殿量が増えている。透明度が増し浮遊微粒子が残り少なくなると、電気泳動を停止する。図4は、電気泳動の停止後20時間後の粘土懸濁液の沈殿状況で、全体的に完全な透明状態になっている。以上のように、粘土懸濁液を電気泳動によって凝集・沈殿させると、5 ミクロン以下の微細粒子であっても、比較的短時間で凝集・沈殿できる。 FIG. 3 shows the state of sedimentation of fine clay particles 3 hours after the start of electrophoresis, and the overall transparency further increases, and the amount of sediment at the bottom increases accordingly. When the transparency increases and the amount of airborne particles is reduced, electrophoresis is stopped. FIG. 4 shows the state of sedimentation of the clay suspension 20 hours after the termination of electrophoresis, and it is completely transparent as a whole. As described above, when a clay suspension is aggregated and precipitated by electrophoresis, even fine particles of 5 microns or less can be aggregated and precipitated in a relatively short time.

従来の化粧品関係では、皮膚に適用する粘土系化粧料や美容パック料などの場合、あくまでも直接触れる表皮細胞や毛髪、皮膚組織に対する粘土内に含まれるミネラルなどの栄養効果を期待したものである。それに対し、本発明の素材は、今迄の発明では適用されていないほど微細な粒子部分(粒度)を用いることで、その物理的吸着作用と荷電による効果を利用出来る化粧品や歯磨き、台所用の洗剤等が製造出来る。例えば顔面などの皮膚パック用化粧品や皮膚用クレンジングジェル、頭髪用シャンプーなどにも適用できる。 In the conventional cosmetics, in the case of clay-based cosmetics and cosmetic packs applied to the skin, nutritional effects such as minerals contained in the clay on the epidermal cells, hair, and skin tissue that are directly touched are expected. On the other hand, the material of the present invention uses a fine particle portion (particle size) that has not been applied so far in the present invention, so that the physical adsorption action and the effect of charging can be used for cosmetics, toothpaste, and kitchen use. Detergents can be manufactured. For example, it can also be applied to cosmetics for skin packs such as the face, skin cleansing gel, shampoo for hair and the like.

更に、湿布剤などの膏薬では皮膚より深部に位置する皮膚付属器、末梢神経、筋組織や骨関節組織や体腔内臓器に対して、皮膚表面から電圧をかけることで生理作用を及ぼすことが出来、細胞活性の賦活作用、感覚神経の作動電流への影響による鎮痛作用、細胞の代謝亢進などの機序を介する効果を利用できるという特徴がある。図5、図6はこのような作用を確認している状態で、皮膚から流れる電気の状態を検証している。 Furthermore, plasters such as poultices can exert physiological effects by applying voltage from the skin surface to skin appendages, peripheral nerves, muscle tissues, bone and joint tissues, and organs in body cavities located deeper than the skin. It is characterized by the fact that it can utilize effects through mechanisms such as cell activity activation action, analgesic action due to the effect on sensory nerve working current, and cell metabolism enhancement. FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 verify the state of electricity flowing from the skin while confirming such an action.

すなわち、図1〜図4のようにして電気泳動によって凝集・沈殿させてなる粘土を手の甲部の皮膚に塗布してから、その上に図5、6のように電極を重ねた状態で電圧計を接続すると、粘土側から手掌側の電極に向かって電圧が生じることが確認できる。電極には2枚ともステンレスを使用した。図5は手の甲に粘土を約1〜2mm程度の厚さに塗った場合で、20mVの電圧を示した。これに対し、図6は手の甲の粘土の厚さを約2倍(4〜5mm)にした場合で、電圧は約3倍の60mVに上がった。 That is, after applying clay agglomerated and precipitated by electrophoresis as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 to the skin of the back of the hand, the voltmeter in the state where the electrodes are stacked as shown in FIGS. It can be confirmed that a voltage is generated from the clay side toward the palm side electrode. Stainless steel was used for both electrodes. FIG. 5 shows a voltage of 20 mV when clay is applied to the back of the hand to a thickness of about 1 to 2 mm. On the other hand, FIG. 6 shows the case where the thickness of the back clay was approximately doubled (4-5 mm), and the voltage rose to 60 mV, approximately three times.

海シルト(泥灰岩)粒子の懸濁液を電気泳動すると還元性によりpH10程度の塩基性となり、健康に良いとされるアルカリイオン水となる性質を有しており、これを応用した還元水製造装置に応用できる。また、紙の製造工程においては一般に一定量の粘土(カオリンなど)が使われているが、この海シルトの微細粒子を添加用粘土として用いると、荷電によりイオン発生効果を持つ壁紙などの建築素材を製造する事が出来る。すなわち、微細な粘土粒子は、西洋紙の素材として製造には欠かせないが、本発明の海シルトの微細な鉱物粒子は静電気を発生するので、この特徴を利用して陰イオンを放出する紙を製造する事が出来る。この紙を部屋の壁紙などに用いると、マイナスイオン発生効果により脱臭効果や空気清浄化が可能になる。 Electrophoresis of a suspension of sea silt (muffstone) particles becomes basic at about pH 10 due to its reducibility, and has the property of becoming alkaline ionized water that is considered good for health. Applicable to manufacturing equipment. In addition, a certain amount of clay (kaolin, etc.) is generally used in the paper manufacturing process, but when these sea silt fine particles are used as additive clay, building materials such as wallpaper that have an ion generation effect due to charge. Can be manufactured. In other words, fine clay particles are indispensable as a raw material for Western paper, but the fine mineral particles of the sea silt of the present invention generate static electricity. Can be manufactured. When this paper is used for wallpaper in a room, the deodorizing effect and air purification can be achieved by the negative ion generation effect.

本発明は、沖縄本島南部に分布する泥灰岩(海シルト、クチャ)を単にそのまま素材とするのではなく、電気泳動で陽イオン交換性の高い微粒子部分を凝集させて分別、採取し、静電気特性を生かした製品を製造するものである。この性質は、過去に泥灰岩の特性としての民間伝承があったり、学術発表がなされた事はなく、この特性の応用による製品化がなされたことのない領域のものである。 The present invention does not simply use the tuff (sea silt, kucha) distributed in the southern part of the main island of Okinawa as it is, but agglomerates fine particles with high cation exchange properties by electrophoresis, and collects and collects them. Products that take advantage of their characteristics. This property is in the area where there has never been a folklore tradition or a scientific announcement as a characteristic of tuff, and no commercialization has been made by applying this characteristic.

すなわち、沖縄の泥灰岩を利用した化粧料やパック料の製造法(先行出願:特願2000−21
3718、特開2002−29924 、特願2003−278656)に止まらず、新しい電気化学的知見に基づく新たな応用法を開発したものである。
That is, a manufacturing method of cosmetics and packs using Okinawa's tuff (prior application: Japanese Patent Application 2000-21)
3718, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-29924, Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-278656), and a new application method based on new electrochemical knowledge was developed.

歯磨きも研磨剤の1種であるが、標準的な市販の歯磨きを基礎として、この歯磨きに本発明による海シルト(泥灰岩)の微細粒子を1%混合した歯磨きを製作し、更に比較する目的の対照群として石墨を1%添加して作られた歯磨き、備長炭の粉末を1%添加して作られた歯磨きの4種類について吸着性の比較試験をした。 Toothpaste is also a type of abrasive, but based on standard commercially available toothpaste, a toothpaste in which fine particles of sea silt (mudstone) according to the present invention are mixed with this toothpaste is manufactured and further compared. As a target control group, four types of toothpaste made by adding 1% of graphite and 1% of powder of Bincho charcoal were subjected to a comparative test of adsorptivity.

試験方法は、浴室内の鏡のような落ちにくい汚れに対して、これらの歯磨きを塗布するだけで研磨をしない実験で比較した。図7は前記の4種の歯磨きの吸着実験をしている状態で、風呂場内の曇った鏡に歯磨きを塗布して吸着による清浄効果を比較している。(1)は、風呂場の汚れた鏡に塗布した状態、(2)は、表面を全く擦らず、シャワーを掛けて洗い流した状態、(3)は、洗浄後、室内の湯気で再結露した状態を、それぞれ示す。歯磨きの種類は、左からスタンダード(標準)、マリンシルト(海シルト)、石墨(石墨粉末)、炭(備長炭粉末)を各々1%標準に混入したものである。試験の結果、吸着洗浄効果は、マリンシルトすなわち海シルト入り歯磨きが一番きれいに汚れを吸着によって落とす事が証明でき、最も良い結果を示した。 The test method was compared with an experiment in which these toothpastes were only applied to a hard-to-drop stain such as a mirror in the bathroom, and polishing was not performed. FIG. 7 compares the cleaning effect of adsorption by applying toothpaste to a cloudy mirror in the bathroom in the state where the above four types of toothpaste adsorption experiments are being conducted. (1) is a state where it is applied to a dirty mirror in a bathroom, (2) is a state where the surface is not rubbed at all, and it is washed away by showering, (3) is re-condensed with indoor steam after washing. Each state is shown. The types of tooth brushing are those in which standard (standard), marine silt (sea silt), graphite (graphite powder), and charcoal (Bincho charcoal powder) are mixed with 1% standard from the left. As a result of the test, the marine silt, that is, the toothpaste containing sea silt, proved that the dirt was removed by adsorption most clearly, and the best results were shown.

更に、標準的な市販の歯磨きと、同歯磨きに海シルト(泥灰岩)を1%添加して製作した歯磨き、石墨を1%添加して作られた歯磨き、備長炭の粉末を1%添加して作られた歯磨きの4種類について、墨汁の吸着実験を行った。実験方法は、図8のように、別々の試験管に同じ墨汁液を同量づつ入れたものを準備し、これに前記4種類の歯磨きを等量づつ加えて混合し、吸着による液の透明化を比較した。まず、(1)のように、4本の試験管に墨汁液を等量づつ入れて準備してから、(2)のように、歯磨きを等量づつ溶いた液を加えて、混合した状態にする。添加した歯磨きの種類は、左からスタンダード(標準)、マリンシルト(海シルト)、石墨(石墨粉末)、炭(備長炭粉末)を各々1%標準に混入したものである。こうして静置し、5時間後の状態が(3)である。その結果、(3)から明らかなように、マリンシルトが最も高い透明度を示した。すなわち、明らかにマリンシルト(海シルト)を入れたものが一番早くて強い墨汁への吸着性を示して沈殿させ、透明化をさせた。 In addition, a standard commercial toothpaste, a toothpaste made by adding 1% sea silt (mudstone) to the same toothpaste, a toothpaste made by adding 1% graphite, and 1% powder from Bincho charcoal For the four types of toothpastes made in this way, ink adsorption experiments were conducted. As shown in Fig. 8, the experimental method is to prepare the same amount of the same sumi in each test tube, add the same amount of the above four types of toothpaste, mix, and clear the liquid by adsorption. Compared. First, as shown in (1), prepare an equal amount of ink liquor in four test tubes, and then add and mix an equal amount of toothpaste as in (2). To. From the left, the types of toothpaste added were standard (standard), marine silt (sea silt), graphite (graphite powder), and charcoal (Bincho charcoal powder) mixed in 1% standard. In this way, the state after 5 hours is (3). As a result, as apparent from (3), marine silt showed the highest transparency. That is, it was clear that the one with marine silt (sea silt) was the fastest and strong adsorbent to ink and was precipitated to be transparent.

図1から図4は、電気泳動による粘土微細粒子の沈殿実験の様子であるのに対し、図9は電気泳動装置を設置したロート型沈殿槽の縦断面図である。この装置は量産化用であり、沈殿槽1の中の上側に陰極2を、下側に陽極3をそれぞれ配置し、直流電源に配線する。この沈殿槽1中に原料注入管4で槽底側に原料となる海シルト岩の水懸濁液を注入する。この原料は、5ミクロン以下の微細粒子をフィルターで濾過・分別してから用いる。この状態で、電気泳動法で陰極2と陽極3との間に電圧をかけ電流を流すと、マイナスに荷電している微細粒子が静電気による吸着作用で陽極3側に凝集されると共に沈降速度が速まる。こうして精製された超微細粒子は、底部のモーノポンプ5で製品取り出し口6に排出される。上層の水は排液口7から排水されるが、この際に同時に陰極側に泳動で集積する有機物などの異物と結合した部分も分離排出され、除去される。 FIGS. 1 to 4 show the state of sedimentation experiment of clay fine particles by electrophoresis, while FIG. 9 is a longitudinal sectional view of a funnel type sedimentation tank provided with an electrophoresis apparatus. This apparatus is for mass production. A cathode 2 is arranged on the upper side of the sedimentation tank 1 and an anode 3 is arranged on the lower side thereof, and wired to a DC power source. A water suspension of sea siltstone as a raw material is injected into the sedimentation tank 1 at the bottom of the tank through a raw material injection pipe 4. This raw material is used after filtering and separating fine particles of 5 microns or less with a filter. In this state, when a voltage is applied between the cathode 2 and the anode 3 by electrophoresis, a negatively charged fine particle is agglomerated on the anode 3 side due to the adsorption action due to static electricity and the sedimentation speed is increased. Speed up. The ultrafine particles purified in this way are discharged to the product take-out port 6 by the bottom MONO pump 5. The upper layer water is drained from the drainage port 7, and at this time, a portion combined with foreign substances such as organic substances accumulated by migration on the cathode side is also separated and discharged and removed.

5ミクロン以下の微細粒子原料は、フィルターによる濾過・分別法のほかに、粒子サイズによる沈降速度の違いを利用することもできる。図9の沈殿槽1の前段に原料採取用の沈殿槽1aを設けて、矢印のように上下移動可能なな採取口8を設置し、沈殿槽1a中に原料海シルト岩の水懸濁液を入れておく。そして、粒子サイズのより小さな微細粒子を採取するには、採取口8を上側に移動させると、沈降できずに浮遊している上側の微細粒子がポンプアップされて、鎖線の原料注入管4aで後段の沈殿槽1に移送され、電気泳動法による吸着凝集と異物の分離除去が行われる。なお、液面Lに浮遊している有機物などの異物は採取口8に吸入されないので、好都合である。 For fine particle raw materials of 5 microns or less, the difference in sedimentation speed depending on the particle size can be used in addition to filtration and fractionation using a filter. A precipitation tank 1a for collecting raw materials is provided in the preceding stage of the precipitation tank 1 in FIG. 9, and a sampling port 8 that can be moved up and down as shown by an arrow is installed, and a water suspension of raw material sea silt rock in the precipitation tank 1a. Put in. In order to collect fine particles having a smaller particle size, when the collection port 8 is moved upward, the fine particles on the upper side that are floating without being settled are pumped up, and the raw material injection pipe 4a of the chain line is used. It is transferred to the subsequent settling tank 1 where adsorption aggregation and electrophoretic separation and removal are performed by electrophoresis. It should be noted that foreign matters such as organic substances floating on the liquid surface L are not sucked into the sampling port 8, which is convenient.

図10は、図9の電気泳動式ロート状沈殿槽を用いて、島尻泥岩から微細粘土粒子を分別・精製する作業の工程をフローチャートで示したもので、まずステップS1のように、沖縄本島南部地域の特殊土壌とされる海シルト岩の粘土を数回洗浄した後の水懸濁液を用意する。次いで、ステップS2において、200メッシュフィルターを用いて濾過し、10〜20ミクロン以下の微細粘土粒子を使用する。この微細粒子を、ステップS3において、図9のロート状沈殿槽にポンプで注入する。 FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the process of separating and refining fine clay particles from Shimajiri mudstone using the electrophoresis funnel settling tank of FIG. Prepare a water suspension after washing several times of the sea siltstone clay, which is considered as special soil in the area. Next, in step S2, filtration is performed using a 200 mesh filter, and fine clay particles of 10 to 20 microns or less are used. In step S3, the fine particles are pumped into the funnel settling tank of FIG.

そして静置すると、粒子の大きな粘土が沈殿するので、ステップS4のように1時間程度静置沈殿させてから、約5ミクロン以上の大粒子の粘土を下部から取り出す。そして、約5ミクロン未満の微細粒子の粘土が残った状態で、ステップS5のように、電気泳動装置の電極2、3間に電圧に通電する。その結果、約5ミクロン未満の微細粒子が電気的に吸引凝集され、かつ陽極3に引かれて沈殿する。したがって、粘土の超微細粒子の電気泳動による凝集・沈殿が短時間に効果的に行われる。ステップS6のように、翌日、下部からモーノポンプ5で取り出して、ステップS7で乾燥させると、鎮痛湿布薬や身体深部組織への静電気治療薬、還元水の製造、陰イオン発生用紙などの原料として使用可能となる。 Then, since the clay with large particles precipitates when left standing, the clay with large particles of about 5 microns or more is taken out from the lower part after allowing to settle for about 1 hour as in step S4. Then, with the fine particle clay of less than about 5 microns remaining, a voltage is applied between the electrodes 2 and 3 of the electrophoresis apparatus as in step S5. As a result, fine particles of less than about 5 microns are electrically agglomerated and attracted to the anode 3 to precipitate. Therefore, aggregation and precipitation by electrophoresis of ultrafine particles of clay are effectively performed in a short time. As in Step S6, the next day, when taken out from the lower part with the MONO pump 5, and dried in Step S7, it is used as a raw material for analgesic poultice, electrostatic treatment for deep body tissues, production of reduced water, anion generation paper, etc. It becomes possible.

以上のように、本発明によると粘土超微細粒子の電気泳動法による凝集・沈殿を効果的に行なって、電気特性にすぐれた海シルト(泥灰岩)粒子の原料を精製製造でき、鎮痛湿布薬や身体深部組織への静電気治療薬、還元水の製造、陰イオン発生用紙などの製造に供することができる。 As described above, according to the present invention, the raw material of sea silt particles can be refined and produced by effectively agglomerating and precipitating clay ultrafine particles by electrophoresis. It can be used for the manufacture of drugs, antistatic drugs for deep body tissues, the production of reduced water, anion generation paper, and the like.
