Description
本発明は、製紙用原料やプラスチック充填材等に利用できる高品位結晶質石灰石及びその製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a high-quality crystalline limestone that can be used as a raw material for papermaking, a plastic filler, and the like, and a method for producing the same.
石灰石は方解石(カルサイト)、アラゴナイト(あられ石)、ドロマイト(白雲石または苦灰石)などの炭酸塩鉱物を50%以上含むものと定義されており、セメント、鉄鋼、ソーダ、製糖、飼料、骨材等に幅広く用いられている。これらの石灰石は、白色度を問題とされることはなく、破砕、粉砕した石灰石がそのままの状態で用いられている。 Limestone is defined as containing more than 50% carbonate minerals such as calcite, aragonite, and dolomite (white dolomite or dolomite). Cement, steel, soda, sugar, feed, Widely used in aggregates. In these limestones, whiteness is not a problem, and crushed and crushed limestone is used as it is.
一方、石灰石を微粉砕したものは粒度と白色度により、普通炭酸カルシウム(普通タンカル)と重質炭酸カルシウム(重質タンカル)とに区別される。
普通炭酸カルシウムは、道路舗装用フィラー、肥料、飼料、ガラス、排煙脱硫及び中和用タンカル、苦土タンカル、陶磁器等に使用される。
重質炭酸カルシウムは、白色度の高い高純度の結晶質石灰石を物理的に粉砕し分級して製造されるものであり、プラスチック、ゴム、塗料、製紙、建材、窯業、ガラス、食品、医薬等非常に広汎にわたって使用されている。
また、沈降炭酸カルシウム(軽質炭酸カルシウム)は、石灰石を原料として化学的製法により生産されるものであり、ゴム、プラスチック、製紙、インキ、塗料、食品、香粧品等に使用されている。
On the other hand, pulverized limestone is classified into normal calcium carbonate (ordinary tancal) and heavy calcium carbonate (heavy tancal) according to particle size and whiteness.
Ordinary calcium carbonate is used for road pavement fillers, fertilizers, feed, glass, flue gas desulfurization and neutralization tanks, bitter clay tanks, ceramics, and the like.
Heavy calcium carbonate is manufactured by physically pulverizing and classifying highly pure crystalline limestone with high whiteness, such as plastic, rubber, paint, papermaking, building materials, ceramics, glass, food, medicine, etc. It is used extensively.
Precipitated calcium carbonate (light calcium carbonate) is produced by a chemical production method using limestone as a raw material, and is used in rubber, plastic, papermaking, ink, paint, food, cosmetics and the like.
大部分の石灰石は種々の不純物を含んでおり、この不純物のために灰色、薄黄色、あるいは薄墨色等の色彩を呈している。
一方、不純物の含有量が低くて白色度の高い高品位結晶質石灰石は、量的に限界があり、最近は埋蔵量も少なくなって来ている。
このため、石灰石鉱山では白色度の高い高品位結晶質石灰石を選択的に採鉱・選鉱し、重質炭酸カルシウム原料として製紙用フィラー、プラスチック、ゴム、塗料、食品、高級ガラス原料等に用いている。
しかしながら、白色度の高い高純度の結晶質石灰石であるにもかかわらず、微量の不純物を含むために製紙用フィラー等への使用基準をわずかに満たさない低品位結晶質石灰石(ISO白色度94未満)は、低純度の結晶質石灰石と一緒にされてセメント原料等に供されている。
このような高度利用されていない高純度の低品位結晶質石灰石中には不純物の一つとしてカーボンが含まれており、主として浮選による方法(例えば、特許文献1参照)、あるいは浮選と焼成を組み合わせて白色度を高める方法(例えば、特許文献2参照)が提案されている。
Most limestones contain various impurities, and due to these impurities, colors such as gray, light yellow, or light ink are exhibited.
On the other hand, high-quality crystalline limestone with a low impurity content and high whiteness has a limit in quantity, and recently, its reserves have decreased.
For this reason, limestone mine selectively mines and concentrates high-grade crystalline limestone with high whiteness and uses it as a heavy calcium carbonate raw material for paper filler, plastic, rubber, paint, food, high-grade glass raw material, etc. .
However, although it is a high-purity crystalline limestone with a high degree of whiteness, it contains a small amount of impurities, so it does not meet the standards for use in paper fillers etc. slightly. ) Is used together with low-purity crystalline limestone as a raw material for cement.
Such high-purity low-grade crystalline limestone that is not highly utilized contains carbon as one of impurities, and is mainly a method by flotation (for example, see Patent Document 1) or flotation and firing. There has been proposed a method for increasing whiteness by combining (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
しかしながら、浮選のみによる方法では対象の粒度が微粒になると効率が低く、また主として不純物カーボンのみが除去されるので、不純物の除去率は高くない。また、焼成による方法でも除去されるのはカーボンであり、処理コストが高くなるため実用には適さない。
また、一般的に、超微粒子になる程浮選等による物理的な選別除去は困難となる。
However, in the method using only flotation, the efficiency is low when the target particle size is fine, and only the impurity carbon is mainly removed, so the impurity removal rate is not high. Further, carbon is also removed by the firing method, which is unsuitable for practical use because of high processing costs.
In general, physical separation and removal by flotation or the like becomes more difficult as the size becomes ultrafine particles.
一般に白色度の高い高品位結晶質石灰石は、地質学的に条件が整った場合にのみ生成するため、極めて限られた鉱床地域でのみ産出する貴重な資源であり、国内外で鉱量的に枯渇傾向にある。しかし、白色度の高い高純度の結晶質石灰石を産する鉱床では、地質学的要因から、不純物を含むやや低品位の石灰石を多く産する。
現状では、製紙用フィラー等への使用基準を満たさない低品位の結晶質石灰石(ISO白色度94未満)は製紙用フィラー等に利用されていない。
In general, high-grade crystalline limestone with high whiteness is produced only when geological conditions are met, and is therefore a valuable resource that is produced only in extremely limited deposit areas. It tends to be exhausted. However, ore deposits that produce high-purity crystalline limestone with high whiteness produce a lot of slightly low-grade limestone containing impurities due to geological factors.
At present, low-grade crystalline limestone (less than ISO whiteness of 94) that does not satisfy the standard of use for paper filler is not used for paper filler.
本発明は、これらの低品位結晶質石灰石から高品位結晶質石灰石を得、多量に賦存するこれらの低品位結晶質石灰石を製紙用フィラー等に高度利用することができる高品位結晶質石灰石、及びその製造方法を提供するものである。
本願明細書では、不純物が少なく白色度の高い高純度の結晶質石灰であっても、微量の不純物を含むために製紙用フィラー等への使用基準をわずかに満たさない結晶質石灰石を低品位結晶質石灰石(ISO白色度94未満)、製紙用フィラー等への使用基準を満たす結晶質石灰石を高品位結晶質石灰石(ISO白色度94以上)として区別して表記する。
The present invention obtains high-grade crystalline limestone from these low-grade crystalline limestones, and high-grade crystalline limestones that can be highly utilized for paper-making fillers and the like, in which these low-grade crystalline limestones exist in large quantities, And a manufacturing method thereof.
In the specification of the present application, low-quality crystalline limestone that does not satisfy the usage criteria for papermaking fillers slightly because it contains a trace amount of impurities even if it is high-purity crystalline lime with few impurities and high whiteness. High quality crystalline limestone (ISO whiteness of 94 or more) is distinguished and described as crystalline limestone satisfying the use standard for quality limestone (less than ISO whiteness of 94) and paper filler.
尚、前述のISO白色度は下記測定方法に従って測定するものである。
すなわち、ISO白色度の測定対象用試料を10μmアンダーが90%以上になるように粉砕し、該粉砕試料をオプトロンブライトネス型式2(株式会社東洋精機製作所製)を用いて、JISP8148(紙及び板紙の拡散照明方法による白色度試験方法(ISO白色度))に準じて測定したものである。
The above ISO whiteness is measured according to the following measuring method.
That is, a sample for measuring ISO whiteness was pulverized so that an under 10 μm was 90% or more, and the pulverized sample was subjected to JISP8148 (of paper and paperboard) using Optron Brightness Model 2 (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd.). Measured according to a whiteness test method (ISO whiteness) by a diffuse illumination method.
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意検討した結果、下記の方法を見出し、本発明を完成した。
先ず本発明者らは、低品位結晶質石灰石の白色度低下の原因がカーボンだけに起因するものではなく、カーボンの他に石英や各種炭酸塩なども白色度低下の原因となっていることをつきとめた。そしてこれらの石英や炭酸塩の表面にはカーボンが付着していた。
As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have found the following method and completed the present invention.
First, the present inventors have found that the cause of the decrease in whiteness of low-grade crystalline limestone is not only due to carbon, but also that quartz and various carbonates in addition to carbon cause the decrease in whiteness. I caught it. And carbon adhered to the surface of these quartz and carbonate.
そして、これらのカーボン、石英、炭酸塩等の不純物を効率良く分離除去する方法として、以下の方法が低品位結晶質石灰石の白色度を飛躍的に向上することを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。 As a method for efficiently separating and removing impurities such as carbon, quartz and carbonate, the following method has been found to dramatically improve the whiteness of low-grade crystalline limestone, and the present invention is completed. It came.
本発明は、微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石を粉砕し、石灰石粒子と不純物粒子に単体分離した後にスラリーとする。一方、より多くの不純物を伴う石灰石(低純度の結晶質石灰石)粗粒子をキャリア(担体粒子)とし、この表面を界面活性剤で疎水化処理した後にスラリーに加え、あるいは樹脂等の疎水性表面を有する粗粒子をキャリアとしてスラリーに加え、攪拌することで不純物粒子をキャリア表面に付着・凝集させ、このキャリアを浮選除去することにより、高純度石灰石を分離回収し、高品位結晶質石灰石を得ることを特徴とする。 In the present invention, low-grade crystalline limestone with a small amount of impurities is pulverized and separated into limestone particles and impurity particles to form a slurry. On the other hand, limestone (low-purity crystalline limestone) coarse particles with more impurities are used as carriers (carrier particles), and this surface is hydrophobized with a surfactant and then added to the slurry, or a hydrophobic surface such as a resin By adding the coarse particles having a carrier to the slurry and stirring, the impurity particles adhere to and agglomerate on the carrier surface, and by flotation removing the carrier, high purity limestone is separated and recovered, and high quality crystalline limestone is obtained. It is characterized by obtaining.
すなわち、超微粒子になる程浮選等による物理的な選別除去が困難であった低品位石灰石中の超微粒子カーボンを、該カーボンより大きな粒子であるキャリアに付着させ、該キャリアと共に超微粒子カーボンを浮選除去するほうが、カーボンのみを浮選除去するよりは極めて効率的であることを、本発明者らは見出したのである。 That is, the ultrafine carbon in the low-grade limestone, which was difficult to physically remove by flotation or the like as it became ultrafine particles, was attached to a carrier that is larger than the carbon, and the ultrafine carbon was combined with the carrier. The present inventors have found that flotation removal is much more efficient than flotation removal of only carbon.
浮選法は、一般的に気泡と粒子の衝突により不純物を気泡に付けて回収するので、不純物の量が少なすぎると気泡との衝突確率が下がり、長時間を要し効率が低下する。
しかし、石灰石中に不純物として存在する石英よりも粗粒のキャリアを多量に(不純物の量と比較すると多量に)入れることで、キャリアに不純物が付いている状態で浮選によりキャリア(石英よりも更に粗粒かつ多量に存在)を回収するほうが更に効率が上がる。
The flotation method generally collects impurities by attaching them to the bubbles by collision between the bubbles and the particles, so if the amount of impurities is too small, the probability of collision with the bubbles is lowered, and it takes a long time and efficiency is lowered.
However, by introducing a larger amount of coarser carriers than quartz present as impurities in limestone (a large amount compared to the amount of impurities), the carrier (within impurities compared to the amount of impurities) is subjected to flotation in the state where the carriers are contaminated. Furthermore, it is more efficient to collect coarse particles and a large amount).
尚、キャリアは、ほとんどが気泡と共に選別除去されるが、万が一残留しても、値段の安い低品位結晶質石灰石をキャリアとして用いれば、高品位結晶質石灰石中に残留しても異物混入問題を起こさないため、合成樹脂をキャリアとする方法よりも優れている。 Although most of the carrier is selected and removed together with air bubbles, even if it remains, if low-grade crystalline limestone, which is cheap, is used as a carrier, it may cause a foreign matter contamination problem even if it remains in high-grade crystalline limestone. Since it does not occur, it is superior to the method using a synthetic resin as a carrier.

本発明の高品位結晶質石灰石の製造方法について説明する。
すなわち、まず微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石を粉砕し100μm以下の粉末として該石灰石粉末中の不純物粒子を単体分離した。
次にこの単体分離した石灰石粉末をスラリーとし、捕収剤を添加した。

The manufacturing method of the high quality crystalline limestone of this invention is demonstrated.
That is, first, low-grade crystalline limestone with a small amount of impurities was pulverized to separate the impurity particles in the limestone powder as a single powder as a powder of 100 μm or less.
Next, the separated limestone powder was made into a slurry, and a collector was added.
On the other hand, limestone coarse particles with more impurities are used as carriers (carrier particles), and this surface is hydrophobized with a collection agent and then added to the limestone powder slurry, or coarse particles having a hydrophobic surface such as a resin. In addition to the limestone powder slurry as a carrier, the impurity particles are adhered and aggregated on the carrier surface by stirring, and by removing the carrier by flotation, high-purity limestone is separated and recovered to obtain high-quality crystalline limestone. .
石灰石粗粒子をキャリア(担体粒子)として用いる方法は、不純物を除く対象とする微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石よりもさらに不純物の多い低純度の結晶質石灰石粉末を使用するため、未利用資源の有効活用になる。 The method of using limestone coarse particles as a carrier (carrier particles) is not used because it uses low-purity crystalline limestone powder with more impurities than low-grade crystalline limestone with a small amount of impurities to be excluded. Effective use of resources.
微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石中のカーボン粉末は疎水性であり、この性質を利用して、疎水性能を有する樹脂(例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリスチレン、AS樹脂、ABS樹脂、塩化ビニル樹脂、塩化ビニリデン樹脂、メタクリル樹脂、メタクリルスチレン(MS)樹脂、ポリメチルペンテン、ポリアミド、ポリカーボネイト、アセタール樹脂、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ふっ素樹脂、フェノール樹脂、メラミン樹脂、ユリア樹脂、不飽和ポリエステル樹脂、エポキシ樹脂、ポリウレタン等)片や石灰石微粉末等へカーボン粉末を衝突させ選択的に吸着させることによって、石灰石粉末とカーボン粉末を分離させるものである。尚、この際衝突を効率的に行うために攪拌することが有効である。 The carbon powder in low-grade crystalline limestone with a small amount of impurities is hydrophobic, and using this property, a resin having hydrophobic performance (for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, AS resin, ABS resin, vinyl chloride resin) , Vinylidene chloride resin, methacrylic resin, methacryl styrene (MS) resin, polymethylpentene, polyamide, polycarbonate, acetal resin, polyethylene terephthalate, fluorine resin, phenol resin, melamine resin, urea resin, unsaturated polyester resin, epoxy resin, polyurethane Etc.) Limestone powder and carbon powder are separated by colliding and selectively adsorbing carbon powder to a piece, fine limestone powder or the like. In this case, it is effective to stir to efficiently perform the collision.
前述の樹脂片や低純度の石灰石微粉末等により高い疎水性能を付与するために、該樹脂片や低純度の石灰石微粉末等をオレイン酸ナトリウム、ケロシン、SDS、DAA等で処理するものである。 In order to impart high hydrophobic performance to the above resin pieces and low purity limestone fine powder, the resin pieces and low purity limestone fine powder are treated with sodium oleate, kerosene, SDS, DAA, etc. .
本発明における微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石の純度測定方法として下記の方法を本発明者らは見出した。
すなわち、微量の不純物を伴う低品位結晶質石灰石粉末を20%の酢酸水溶液で懸濁して炭酸カルシウム分を溶解後、遠心分離により残渣を回収した。該残渣を水洗後、50%グリセリン水溶液に溶解して濁度計(ボイック積分球式濁度計)で濁度を測定した(濁度法)。
本濁度法による方法は重量法では測定限界以下の0.1%程度以下のカーボン等の不純物の測定に適しているものである。
The present inventors have found the following method as a method for measuring the purity of low-grade crystalline limestone with a trace amount of impurities in the present invention.
That is, a low-grade crystalline limestone powder with a small amount of impurities was suspended in a 20% aqueous acetic acid solution to dissolve calcium carbonate, and then the residue was collected by centrifugation. The residue was washed with water, dissolved in a 50% glycerin aqueous solution, and the turbidity was measured with a turbidimeter (Boick integrating sphere turbidimeter) (turbidity method).
The method based on the turbidity method is suitable for the measurement of impurities such as carbon of about 0.1% or less which is below the measurement limit in the gravimetric method.
異なるグレードの石灰石について、この濁度法によって測定した不純物量と白色度(ISO白色度)の関係を下図に示す。
The relationship between the amount of impurities and whiteness (ISO whiteness) measured by this turbidity method for different grades of limestone is shown in the figure below.
