Description

本発明は、化粧料として必要な加圧力範囲において滑り性に優れた六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末、並びに該六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を含む化粧料に関する。 TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a hexagonal boron nitride powder having excellent slidability in a pressure range required as a cosmetic, and a cosmetic containing the hexagonal boron nitride powder.

六方晶窒化ホウ素は黒鉛類似の層状構造を有し、滑り性、熱伝導性、絶縁性、化学的安定性、耐熱衝撃性などの特性に優れ、これらの特性を活かして化粧料(化粧品ともいう)原料、固体潤滑剤や離型剤、樹脂やゴムの充填材、耐熱性を有する絶縁性焼結体などに応用されている。 Hexagonal boron nitride has a layered structure similar to graphite, and has excellent properties such as slipperiness, thermal conductivity, insulation, chemical stability, and thermal shock resistance. Utilizing these properties, cosmetics (also called cosmetics ) Applied to raw materials, solid lubricants and mold release agents, fillers of resins and rubbers, heat-resistant insulating sinters, etc.

化粧料原料用の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末については、これまでは安全性、衛生性の観点から開発をなされてきた。特に溶出ホウ素量については、医薬部外品原料規格2006で規格が定められており、所定の手順で六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を水に接触させた際に、許容できるホウ素量(以降、「溶出ホウ素量」という)は窒化ホウ素1gに対して20μg以下(すなわち20ppm以下)と規定されており、該規定を超える六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末は、これを原料として配合した化粧料の肌への刺激性を高める可能性があった。そのため、水溶性ホウ素化合物を低減する手段が様々に開示されてきた。 Hexagonal boron nitride powder used as a raw material for cosmetics has been developed from the viewpoint of safety and hygiene. Particularly, regarding the amount of eluted boron, the standard is defined in the Quasi-drug raw material standard 2006, and when the hexagonal boron nitride powder is brought into contact with water by a predetermined procedure, the allowable amount of boron (hereinafter, “eluted boron”). Amount) is specified to be 20 μg or less (that is, 20 ppm or less) with respect to 1 g of boron nitride, and a hexagonal boron nitride powder exceeding the specified amount causes the skin irritancy of the cosmetic compounded with this as a raw material. There was a possibility to raise. Therefore, various means for reducing the water-soluble boron compound have been disclosed.

特許文献1には、六方晶窒化ホウ素を低級アルコールやアセトン等の水可溶性有機溶媒若しくはその水溶液、または界面活性剤水溶液中で攪拌洗浄し、低温かつ低酸素雰囲気下で乾燥する方法が、特許文献2には、六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を水または熱水に分散させて水可溶性ホウ素化合物を洗浄除去し、乾燥させた後、アルコールを配合若しくはアルコール中に浸漬し、然る後再度乾燥させる方法が、さらに特許文献3には、六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を、酸水溶液中で洗浄し、乾燥した後、炭素と接触させないようにして窒素雰囲気下1800〜1950℃で1〜5時間熱処理する方法が開示されている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a method in which hexagonal boron nitride is washed by stirring in a water-soluble organic solvent such as lower alcohol or acetone or an aqueous solution thereof, or a surfactant aqueous solution, and dried under a low temperature and low oxygen atmosphere. In 2, there is a method in which a hexagonal boron nitride powder is dispersed in water or hot water to remove a water-soluble boron compound by washing, dried, and then blended with alcohol or immersed in alcohol, and then dried again. Further, Patent Document 3 discloses a method in which a hexagonal boron nitride powder is washed in an aqueous acid solution, dried, and then heat-treated at 1800 to 1950° C. for 1 to 5 hours in a nitrogen atmosphere without being brought into contact with carbon. Has been done.

一方で、化粧料原料用に六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を配合する目的として、滑り性、伸び性、及び光沢性等の付与がある。特に、六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末の滑り性は、同様の機能を有するタルク粉末やマイカ粉末に比べて優れており、滑り性の改善は化粧料にとって重要な因子である。しかし特許文献1〜3に開示される六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末では滑り性の改善はなされておらず、結果として滑り性において十分に満足のいくものではなかった。 On the other hand, for the purpose of blending the hexagonal boron nitride powder as a raw material for cosmetics, it is necessary to impart slipperiness, extensibility and gloss. In particular, the hexagonal boron nitride powder is superior in slipperiness to talc powder and mica powder having similar functions, and the improvement of slipperiness is an important factor for cosmetics. However, the hexagonal boron nitride powders disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 have not been improved in slidability, and as a result, slidability was not sufficiently satisfactory.

滑り性を数値化する方法として摩擦力がある。摩擦力は、材料自体の滑り性に加え、相手材への加圧力によって変化する。化粧料の場合、相手材は皮膚であり、加圧力はクリーム状化粧料では2.0kPa程度、パウダーファンデーションでは2.5kPa程度と、化粧料の種類によって異なっているため、化粧料として必要な加圧力範囲において滑り性に優れた六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末が必要とされていた。 Friction force is a method to quantify the slipperiness. The frictional force changes depending on the sliding force of the material itself and the pressure applied to the mating material. In the case of cosmetics, the mating material is the skin, and the pressing force is about 2.0 kPa for creamy cosmetics and about 2.5 kPa for powder foundations. A hexagonal boron nitride powder having excellent slidability in the pressure range has been required.

滑り性に優れた化粧料用窒化ホウ素粉末として、特許文献4が開示されている。しかし特許文献4は扁平形状の一次粒子が積層した板状の凝集体であるため、上記記載の方法では満足のいく滑り性が得られなかった。 Patent Document 4 is disclosed as a boron nitride powder for cosmetics having excellent slipperiness. However, since Patent Document 4 is a plate-like aggregate in which flat primary particles are laminated, satisfactory slipperiness cannot be obtained by the method described above.

<六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末>
本発明の一側面に係る六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末は、平均粒子径が3μm以上20μm以下、パウダーレオメーターで測定された加圧力1.5kPa以上3.0kPa以下の範囲におけるせん断応力Sと加圧力Pの比の値rが0.70以下、黒鉛化指数が2.0以下である。
<Hexagonal boron nitride powder>
The hexagonal boron nitride powder according to one aspect of the present invention has an average particle diameter of 3 μm or more and 20 μm or less and a shear stress S and a pressure P of 1.5 kPa or more and 3.0 kPa or less measured by a powder rheometer. The value r of the ratio is 0.70 or less and the graphitization index is 2.0 or less.

以下に、本発明に係る六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を実施するためのより詳しい説明を示す。 The following is a more detailed description for carrying out the hexagonal boron nitride powder according to the present invention.

<平均粒子径>
本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末の平均粒子径は3μm以上20μm以下、好ましくは4μm以上18μm以下、更に好ましくは5μm以上15μm以下である。3μm未満では滑り性が不十分となる。20μmを超えると、例えばこれを用いた化粧料の肌への感触にざらつきが発生したり、外観上のぎらつきが強くなるため、化粧料原料としては好ましくなくなる。なお本発明における平均粒子径は、レーザー回折散乱法による粒度分布測定において、体積基準の累積粒度分布の累積値50%の粒子径である。一般に平均粒子径は測定方法により変わる可能性があり、本発明では、水200mlに、六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末60mg及び20質量%ヘキサメタリン酸水溶液2mlを加え、ホモジナイザーにより300Wの出力で180秒間分散処理させた後の分散液を用いて、粒度分布測定器により計測した値である。
<Average particle size>
The hexagonal boron nitride powder of the present invention has an average particle size of 3 μm or more and 20 μm or less, preferably 4 μm or more and 18 μm or less, and more preferably 5 μm or more and 15 μm or less. If it is less than 3 μm, the slipperiness is insufficient. If it exceeds 20 μm, for example, a cosmetic using the same may have a rough texture on the skin, or the appearance may be more glare, which is not preferable as a raw material for cosmetics. The average particle size in the present invention is a particle size of 50% of the cumulative value of the cumulative particle size distribution on a volume basis in the particle size distribution measurement by the laser diffraction scattering method. Generally, the average particle size may change depending on the measuring method. In the present invention, 60 mg of hexagonal boron nitride powder and 2 ml of 20 mass% hexametaphosphoric acid aqueous solution are added to 200 ml of water, and the mixture is dispersed by a homogenizer at an output of 300 W for 180 seconds. It is the value measured by the particle size distribution measuring device using the dispersion liquid after being heated.

<せん断応力及び加圧力とせん断応力の比>
本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末において[数1]で示される加圧力Pとせん断応力Sの比の値rは、加圧力1.5kPa以上3.0kPa以下の範囲において0.70以下、好ましくは0.65以下である。
加圧力1.5kPa以上3.0kPa以下は、上述の通り化粧料として必要な加圧力範囲であり、クリーム状化粧料では2.0kPa、パウダーファンデーションでは2.5kPaと言われている。加圧力とせん断応力の比rが小さい程、幅広い加圧力範囲で滑り易く、化粧料として好適であると言える。逆にrが0.70を超えると滑り性が不十分であり、化粧料として好適ではない。
<Shear stress and ratio of applied pressure and shear stress>
In the hexagonal boron nitride powder of the present invention, the value r of the ratio of the pressing force P and the shear stress S represented by [Equation 1] is 0.70 or less, preferably in the range of pressing force 1.5 kPa or more and 3.0 kPa or less. It is 0.65 or less.
The pressing force of 1.5 kPa or more and 3.0 kPa or less is a pressing force range required as a cosmetic as described above, and is said to be 2.0 kPa for creamy cosmetics and 2.5 kPa for powder foundations. It can be said that the smaller the ratio r of the pressing force and the shear stress, the more slippery in a wide pressing range and the more suitable it is as a cosmetic. On the other hand, when r exceeds 0.70, the slipperiness is insufficient and it is not suitable as a cosmetic.

また本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末は、パウダーレオメーターで測定された加圧力2.0kPaにおけるせん断応力が1.4kPa以下、好ましくは1.3kPa以下であり、更に加圧力3.0kPa以下におけるせん断応力が2.1kPa以下、好ましくは2.0kPa以下である。これらのせん断応力を超えると滑り性が不十分であり、化粧料として好適ではない。なお加圧力とせん断応力の関係の測定は、「パウダーレオメーター(マルバーン製)」を用いた「壁面摩擦試験」により行った。この試験においては表面粗さが規定された円形ディスク(直径48mm)を用いて試料粉体と円形ディスクとの摩擦力をせん断応力として測定するが、より肌の状態に近づけるべく円形ディスクに人工皮革(出光テクノファイン製、サプラーレ)を貼り付けて測定を行った。 The hexagonal boron nitride powder of the present invention has a shear stress at a pressure of 2.0 kPa measured by a powder rheometer of 1.4 kPa or less, preferably 1.3 kPa or less, and further shearing at a pressure of 3.0 kPa or less. The stress is 2.1 kPa or less, preferably 2.0 kPa or less. If these shear stresses are exceeded, the slipperiness is insufficient and it is not suitable as a cosmetic. The measurement of the relationship between the pressing force and the shear stress was performed by a "wall surface friction test" using a "powder rheometer (made by Malvern)". In this test, the frictional force between the sample powder and the circular disc is measured as shear stress using a circular disc (diameter 48 mm) whose surface roughness is regulated. To make it closer to the skin condition, the circular disc is made of artificial leather. (Suprare made by Idemitsu Techno Fine Co., Ltd.) was attached and the measurement was performed.

<黒鉛化指数>
六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末は、黒鉛と類似の結晶構造を有しており、粉末X線回折測定を利用し、黒鉛と同様の方法で、その黒鉛化指数を算出することができる。即ち、黒鉛化指数は、X線回折スペクトルの(100)面に由来するピークの面積S1、(101)面に由来するピークの面積S2、及び(102)面に由来するピークの面積S3の各値を、[数2]に代入することによって算出できることが示されており(J.Thomas,et.al,J.Am.Chem.Soc.84,4619(1962))、これを六方晶窒化ホウ素に適用したものである。
<Graphization index>
The hexagonal boron nitride powder has a crystal structure similar to that of graphite, and its graphitization index can be calculated by a method similar to that of graphite using powder X-ray diffraction measurement. That is, the graphitization index is the area S1 of the peak derived from the (100) plane of the X-ray diffraction spectrum, the area S2 of the peak derived from the (101) plane, and the area S3 of the peak derived from the (102) plane. It has been shown that the value can be calculated by substituting it into [Equation 2] (J. Thomas, et. al, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 84, 4619 (1962)), and this is calculated as hexagonal boron nitride. It has been applied to.

なお、本発明では、S1は六方晶窒化ホウ素の(100)面のX線回折スペクトルに相当するピークの面積(積分強度比)であり、具体的には2θ=40°以上42.5°以下のピークの面積である。同様にS2は六方晶窒化ホウ素の(101)面のX線回折スペクトルに相当するピークの面積(積分強度比)であり、具体的には2θ=43°以上45°以下のピーク面積である。S3は六方晶窒化ホウ素の(102)面のX線回折スペクトルに相当するピークの面積(積分強度比)であり、具体的には2θ=48°以上52°以下のピークの面積である。なお、各ピークの面積を求めるにあたり、2θ=38°及び54°における各値を直線で結んでベースラインを作成し、ベースラインを基準として各ピーク面積を算出した。 In the present invention, S1 is the area (integrated intensity ratio) of the peak corresponding to the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the (100) plane of hexagonal boron nitride, and specifically, 2θ=40° or more and 42.5° or less. Is the area of the peak. Similarly, S2 is an area (integrated intensity ratio) of a peak corresponding to the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the (101) plane of hexagonal boron nitride, and specifically, a peak area of 2θ=43° or more and 45° or less. S3 is the area of the peak (integrated intensity ratio) corresponding to the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the (102) plane of hexagonal boron nitride, and is specifically the area of the peak at 2θ=48° or more and 52° or less. In obtaining the area of each peak, a baseline was created by connecting the respective values at 2θ=38° and 54° with a straight line, and each peak area was calculated based on the baseline.

黒鉛化指数は六方晶窒化ホウ素の結晶性の指標となり、化粧料として用いた場合の滑り性に影響する。本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素の黒鉛化指数は2.0以下、好ましくは1.8以下、更に好ましくは1.4以下である。黒鉛化指数が2.0を超えると、六方晶窒化ホウ素の結晶性が不十分となり、ひいては滑り性が不十分になる。 The graphitization index serves as an index of crystallinity of hexagonal boron nitride and affects the slipperiness when used as a cosmetic. The graphitization index of the hexagonal boron nitride of the present invention is 2.0 or less, preferably 1.8 or less, more preferably 1.4 or less. When the graphitization index exceeds 2.0, the crystallinity of the hexagonal boron nitride becomes insufficient, and the slipperiness becomes insufficient.

<六方晶窒化ホウ素の製造方法>
本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末の製造方法の例としては、ホウ素を含む化合物の粉末及び窒素を含む化合物の粉末(以下、ホウ素を含む化合物と窒素を含む化合物とを併せて出発原料ということもある)と、アルカリ金属化合物及び/又はアルカリ土類金属などの焼成時における出発原料の六方晶窒化ホウ素への変換を促進する焼結助剤の粉末と、本発明の目的を逸脱しない範囲において、必要に応じて出発原料や焼結助剤以外の、単体や化合物を含む混合粉末を、第一焼成条件として窒素、ヘリウム、アルゴン等の不活性雰囲気下、及び又はアンモニア雰囲気下で600〜1300℃で焼成して低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素となし、これを更に第二焼成条件として窒素、ヘリウム、アルゴン等の不活性雰囲気下、及び又はアンモニア雰囲気下で1600〜2200℃で焼成して高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素となし、これを洗浄液で洗浄することによる不純物除去処理を加えてから乾燥する工程を含む製造方法が挙げられる。ここで、焼結助剤の配合は、出発原料に配合しても良いし、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素に配合しても良い。
<Method for producing hexagonal boron nitride>
As an example of the method for producing the hexagonal boron nitride powder of the present invention, a powder of a compound containing boron and a powder of a compound containing nitrogen (hereinafter, the compound containing boron and the compound containing nitrogen are also referred to as starting materials. A), a powder of a sintering aid that promotes conversion of a starting material into hexagonal boron nitride during firing of an alkali metal compound and/or an alkaline earth metal, and the like, within a range not departing from the object of the present invention, 600 to 1300° C. under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, helium, argon or the like as the first firing condition, and/or an ammonia atmosphere, as a first firing condition, if necessary, a mixed powder containing a simple substance or a compound other than a starting material or a sintering aid. To form low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride, which is further crystallized as a second firing condition under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, helium, argon or the like and/or under an ammonia atmosphere at 1600 to 2200° C. to obtain high crystallinity. There is a manufacturing method including a step of forming a crystalline hexagonal boron nitride, and adding an impurity removal treatment by washing this with a washing liquid, and then drying. Here, the sintering aid may be mixed in the starting material or in the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride.

ここでホウ素を含む化合物としては、ホウ酸、酸化ホウ素、ホウ砂などが好ましく、特にホウ酸を好ましく用いることができる。また、窒素を含む化合物としては、シアンジアミド、メラミン、尿素などが好ましく、特にメラミンを好ましく選択することができる。出発原料中に含まれるホウ素原子と窒素原子のモル比率は、必ずしも5:5に固定する必要はなく、反応性や収率に応じて、ホウ素原子と窒素原子のモル比率を、好ましくは2:8〜8:2の範囲で、さらに好ましくは3:7〜7:3の範囲で適宜変えることが可能である。なお、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素を製造するための出発原料として用いる各種化合物等は一種類に限定する必要はなく、複数種類の化合物等を同時に使用することもできる。 As the compound containing boron, boric acid, boron oxide, borax, etc. are preferable, and boric acid can be particularly preferably used. Further, as the nitrogen-containing compound, cyandiamide, melamine, urea and the like are preferable, and melamine can be particularly preferably selected. The molar ratio of the boron atom and the nitrogen atom contained in the starting material does not necessarily have to be fixed at 5:5, and the molar ratio of the boron atom and the nitrogen atom is preferably 2:5 depending on the reactivity and the yield. It can be appropriately changed within the range of 8 to 8:2, and more preferably within the range of 3:7 to 7:3. The various compounds and the like used as starting materials for producing the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride do not have to be limited to one kind, and a plurality of kinds of compounds and the like can be used at the same time.

焼結助剤の好ましい具体例としては、リチウム、ナトリウム、カリウム等のアルカリ金属の酸化物又は炭酸塩、カルシウム、ストロンチウム等のアルカリ土類金属の酸化物又は炭酸塩を挙げることができる。焼結助剤の好ましい配合割合としては、出発原料100重量部に対して焼結助剤0.9質量部以上20質量部以下が好ましい。なお、焼結助剤として用いる各種化合物等は一種類に限定する必要はなく、複数種類の化合物等を同時に使用することもできる。また、出発原料や焼結助剤以外に配合できる単体や化合物の例としては、炭素などの還元性物質を挙げることができる。 Preferred specific examples of the sintering aid include oxides or carbonates of alkali metals such as lithium, sodium and potassium, and oxides or carbonates of alkaline earth metals such as calcium and strontium. The preferable mixing ratio of the sintering aid is 0.9 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less of 100 parts by weight of the starting material. It should be noted that it is not necessary to limit the variety of compounds used as the sintering aid to one type, and a plurality of types of compounds and the like can be used at the same time. In addition, as an example of a simple substance or a compound that can be blended in addition to the starting material and the sintering aid, a reducing substance such as carbon can be cited.

さらに黒鉛化指数、すなわち六方晶窒化ホウ素の結晶性は、焼結助剤の配合量、及び焼成温度によって変化する。出発原料の100質量部に対する焼結助剤の配合割合は少なくとも0.9質量部以上、好ましくは1.0質量部以上、さらに好ましくは2.0質量部以上であることが望ましい。また、化粧料への適用を考慮すると、出発原料の100質量部に対する焼結助剤の配合割合は多くとも20質量部以下、好ましくは15質量部以下、さらに好ましくは12質量部以下であることが望ましい。焼結助剤の配合割合が上記の範囲未満であると、焼結に伴って進行するべき出発原料から六方晶窒化ホウ素への変換反応が進まずに、黒鉛化指数が2.0を超える値となりやすく、化粧料としての塗り伸び性が不十分となる。逆に、焼結助剤の配合割合が上記の範囲を超えると六方晶窒化ホウ素の結晶成長が進みすぎて微粉砕が困難になり、該粉末の平均粒子径が20μmを超える可能性が高く、このような六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を原料として用いた化粧料では、外観上のぎらつきが強くなり、化粧料用原料として相応しくない。 Further, the graphitization index, that is, the crystallinity of hexagonal boron nitride changes depending on the blending amount of the sintering aid and the firing temperature. The mixing ratio of the sintering aid to 100 parts by mass of the starting material is at least 0.9 parts by mass or more, preferably 1.0 parts by mass or more, and more preferably 2.0 parts by mass or more. In consideration of application to cosmetics, the mixing ratio of the sintering aid to 100 parts by mass of the starting material is at most 20 parts by mass, preferably 15 parts by mass or less, more preferably 12 parts by mass or less. Is desirable. When the blending ratio of the sintering aid is less than the above range, the conversion reaction from the starting material to hexagonal boron nitride that should proceed with sintering does not proceed and the graphitization index exceeds 2.0. And the coating spreadability as a cosmetic becomes insufficient. On the other hand, if the mixing ratio of the sintering aid exceeds the above range, the crystal growth of hexagonal boron nitride will proceed too much and fine pulverization will be difficult, and the average particle diameter of the powder is likely to exceed 20 μm. A cosmetic using such a hexagonal boron nitride powder as a raw material has a strong external glare, and is not suitable as a raw material for a cosmetic.

本発明の発明者らは、化粧料における皮膚への必要な加圧力範囲において優れた滑り性を示す六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を合成する方法について鋭意検討した結果、これを実現するためには、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末に含まれる100μm以上の粗粉量を特定量以下とすることが必要であることを見出し、本発明を完成させた。低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末に含まれる100μm以上の粗粉量としては、多くとも40体積%以下、好ましくは30体積%以下、さらに好ましくは20体積%以下であることが望ましい。低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末に含まれる100μm以上の粗粉量が40体積%を超えると、高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素合成時の結晶成長が不均一化するため、加圧力Pとせん断応力Sの比の値rが0.65を超えるため、化粧料用原料として相応しくない。なお本発明における100μm以上の粗粉量は、レーザー回折散乱法による粒度分布測定において、体積基準の累積粒度分布の粒子径100μmを超える体積割合である。本発明では、水200mlに、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末60mg及び20質量%ヘキサメタリン酸水溶液2mlを加えた混合液を、超音波分散処理を実施することなく、粒度分布測定器により計測した値である。ここで、超音波分散処理を実施しない理由は、超音波分散処理を行うと、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末に含まれる粗粉が超音波によって粉砕され、粗粉量が正確に測定できなくなるためである。 The inventors of the present invention diligently studied a method of synthesizing a hexagonal boron nitride powder showing excellent slipperiness in a range of a pressure applied to the skin in cosmetics, and as a result, in order to achieve this, a low The inventors have found that it is necessary to set the amount of coarse powder of 100 μm or more contained in the crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder to a specific amount or less, and have completed the present invention. The amount of coarse powder of 100 μm or more contained in the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder is at most 40% by volume or less, preferably 30% by volume or less, and more preferably 20% by volume or less. When the amount of coarse powder of 100 μm or more contained in the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder exceeds 40% by volume, the crystal growth during the synthesis of the highly crystalline hexagonal boron nitride becomes non-uniform, so that the pressing force P and the shearing force are increased. Since the value r of the ratio of the stress S exceeds 0.65 , it is not suitable as a raw material for cosmetics. In addition, the amount of coarse powder of 100 μm or more in the present invention is a volume ratio in which the particle size of the cumulative particle size distribution on a volume basis exceeds 100 μm in the particle size distribution measurement by the laser diffraction scattering method. In the present invention, a mixed solution obtained by adding 60 mg of low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder and 2 ml of 20% by mass aqueous hexametaphosphoric acid solution to 200 ml of water was measured by a particle size distribution analyzer without performing ultrasonic dispersion treatment. It is a value. Here, the reason why the ultrasonic dispersion treatment is not performed is that when the ultrasonic dispersion treatment is performed, the coarse powder contained in the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder is pulverized by ultrasonic waves, and the coarse powder amount can be accurately measured. This is because it will disappear.

第一焼成条件で得られる低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素は、一般的にはブロック状の固形物の状態で取り出されるため、これを粉砕又は分級することにより、100μm以上の粗粉量が40体積%以下である低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素の粉末を得ることができる。粉砕機の一例を挙げれば、ボールミル、ハンマーミル、カッターミル、リングミル、ピンミル、振動ミル、ジェットミル、ビーズミルがある。分級機の一例を挙げれば、振動篩、沈降分級、気流式分級機がある。また、低結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末の生産性を高めるために、これらの粉砕機及び分級機を、第一焼成条件の焼成炉の出口に設置することもできる。 The low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride obtained under the first firing condition is generally taken out in the form of a block-like solid, so by pulverizing or classifying it, a coarse powder amount of 100 μm or more is 40 volume. % Hexagonal boron nitride powder can be obtained. Examples of the pulverizer include a ball mill, a hammer mill, a cutter mill, a ring mill, a pin mill, a vibration mill, a jet mill and a bead mill. Examples of the classifier include a vibrating screen, a sedimentation classifier, and an airflow classifier. Further, in order to improve the productivity of the low crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder, these pulverizers and classifiers can be installed at the exit of the firing furnace under the first firing conditions.

該混合粉末を焼成するときの最高温度としては、第一焼成条件では、600℃以上1300℃以下の範囲の温度が好ましく、800℃以上1200℃以下の範囲の温度がより好ましく設定される。焼成温度の最高値が600℃未満であると低結晶六方晶窒化ホウ素への変換が進み難くなり、原料であるホウ素を含む化合物の残留量が増加するため、結果として平均粒子径が3.0μm未満の値となりやすく、加圧力Pとせん断応力Sの比の値rが0.65を超えるため、化粧料用原料として相応しくない。焼成温度の最高値が1300℃を超えると、高結晶六方晶窒化ホウ素を合成するのに必要なB等の酸化物が減少し、結果として黒鉛化指数が2.0を超える値となりやすく、化粧料としての塗り伸び性が不十分となるため好ましくない。第二焼成条件では、1600℃以上2200℃以下の範囲の温度が好ましく、1650℃以上1900℃以下の範囲の温度がより好ましく設定される。焼成温度の最高値が1600℃未満であると六方晶窒化ホウ素への変換が進み難くなるため黒鉛化指数が2.0を超える値となりやすく、加圧力Pとせん断応力Sの比の値rが0.65を超えるため、化粧料用原料として相応しくない。焼成温度の最高値が2200℃を超えると、六方晶窒化ホウ素の結晶成長が進みすぎ、化粧料用原材料として使用した場合に外観のぎらつきが強まるため、実用上好ましくない。 As the maximum temperature for firing the mixed powder, a temperature in the range of 600° C. to 1300° C. is preferable, and a temperature in the range of 800° C. to 1200° C. is more preferably set under the first firing conditions. If the maximum firing temperature is less than 600° C., conversion to low-crystal hexagonal boron nitride becomes difficult to proceed, and the residual amount of the compound containing boron as the raw material increases, resulting in an average particle diameter of 3.0 μm. The value r of the ratio of the pressing force P to the shear stress S exceeds 0.65, which is not suitable as a raw material for cosmetics. When the maximum firing temperature exceeds 1300° C., the amount of oxides such as B 2 O 3 necessary for synthesizing high crystal hexagonal boron nitride decreases, and as a result, the graphitization index exceeds 2.0. It is not preferred because it is easy and the coating spreadability as a cosmetic is insufficient. Under the second firing conditions, a temperature in the range of 1600° C. or higher and 2200° C. or lower is preferable, and a temperature in the range of 1650° C. or higher and 1900° C. or lower is more preferably set. If the maximum firing temperature is less than 1600° C., the conversion to hexagonal boron nitride is difficult to proceed, so the graphitization index tends to exceed 2.0, and the value r of the ratio of the pressing force P to the shear stress S is Since it exceeds 0.65 , it is not suitable as a raw material for cosmetics. If the maximum firing temperature exceeds 2200° C., the crystal growth of hexagonal boron nitride will proceed excessively and the glare of the appearance will increase when used as a raw material for cosmetics, which is not preferable in practice.

六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末の焼成温度は一定に保持しても、連続的または不連続的に変化させても良く、昇温冷却時の速度にも制限はないが、第一焼成条件では、焼成時間が短すぎると、低結晶六方晶窒化ホウ素への変換が進み難くなり、原料であるホウ素を含む化合物の残留量が増加するため、結果として平均粒子径が3.0μm未満の値となりやすいため、0.5時間以上が好ましく、1時間以上がより好ましい。第二焼成条件では、焼成時間が短すぎると焼成が不十分となり、黒鉛化指数が2.0を超える可能性があるため、2時間以上が好ましく、4時間以上がより好ましい。また、該粉末混合物を焼成する装置類については特に制限はないが、該粉末混合物を収納する容器には、例えば六方晶窒化ホウ素製の容器を用いることができ、加熱装置には、例えば電気ヒータを用いた焼成炉を用いることができる。 The firing temperature of the hexagonal boron nitride powder may be kept constant, or may be continuously or discontinuously changed, and there is no limitation on the rate at the time of temperature rising and cooling, but in the first firing condition, the firing time is Is too short, the conversion to low crystal hexagonal boron nitride becomes difficult to proceed, the residual amount of the compound containing boron as a raw material increases, and as a result, the average particle diameter tends to be a value of less than 3.0 μm, It is preferably 0.5 hours or longer, more preferably 1 hour or longer. In the second firing condition, if the firing time is too short, firing becomes insufficient and the graphitization index may exceed 2.0, so 2 hours or more is preferable, and 4 hours or more is more preferable. Further, there is no particular limitation on the apparatus for firing the powder mixture, but a container made of hexagonal boron nitride, for example, can be used as the container for storing the powder mixture, and the heating device can be, for example, an electric heater. It is possible to use a firing furnace using.

また、出発原料を混合して粉末混合物となしてから焼成が終了するまでの間に、本発明の目的を逸脱しない範囲内で、さらに加熱、冷却、加湿、乾燥、及び洗浄の操作を加えることも可能である。 Further, during the period from the mixing of the starting materials to form a powder mixture and the end of the firing, further heating, cooling, humidifying, drying, and washing operations may be added within a range not departing from the object of the present invention. Is also possible.

焼成が終了して得られた高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素を粉砕する装置に特に規定はないが、粉砕条件によっては得られた六方晶窒化ホウ素が微細化してしまい、上述の溶出ホウ素量が20ppmを超えてしまう恐れがある。 The device for pulverizing the highly crystalline hexagonal boron nitride obtained after the calcination is not particularly specified, but the hexagonal boron nitride obtained becomes finer depending on the pulverization conditions, and the amount of eluted boron is 20 ppm. May exceed.

粉砕した高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末中には、六方晶窒化ホウ素以外の不純物や水溶性ホウ素化合物(以降、まとめて不純物等という)が含まれている可能性があるため、洗浄液を用いた洗浄により不純物等を除去してから固液分離して乾燥し、最終的に本発明の六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を得ることができる。ここでいう洗浄液とは、水、酸性物質を含む水溶液、有機溶媒、有機溶媒と水との混合液のいずれかであることが望ましい。水は、例えば5〜95℃の冷水、温水または熱水を用いることができ、この場合、不純物の二次的な混入を避ける観点から、電気伝導度が1mS/m以下の水を使用することができる。酸性物質としては、例えば塩酸、硝酸等の無機酸を挙げることができる。有機溶媒としては、例えばメタノール、エタノール、プロパノール、イソプロピルアルコールやアセトン等の水溶性の有機溶媒を好ましく使用することができる。高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末と洗浄液とを接触させる方法にも特に制限はないが、高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末を、洗浄液中に浸漬して撹拌したり、高結晶性六方晶窒化ホウ素粉末に、洗浄液をスプレーしたりして洗浄する方法等がある。 Since the pulverized highly crystalline hexagonal boron nitride powder may contain impurities other than hexagonal boron nitride and water-soluble boron compounds (hereinafter collectively referred to as impurities), a cleaning liquid was used. Impurities and the like are removed by washing, solid-liquid separation is performed, and drying is performed to finally obtain the hexagonal boron nitride powder of the present invention. The cleaning liquid here is preferably any one of water, an aqueous solution containing an acidic substance, an organic solvent, and a mixed liquid of an organic solvent and water. As the water, for example, cold water, hot water or hot water of 5 to 95° C. can be used, and in this case, water having an electric conductivity of 1 mS/m or less is used from the viewpoint of avoiding secondary contamination of impurities. You can Examples of the acidic substance include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. As the organic solvent, for example, water-soluble organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropyl alcohol and acetone can be preferably used.

これを六方晶窒化ホウ素製の容器(内容積1.4L)に入れ、炉室内容積が16Lの電気炉(東海高熱工業社製、TV−200)内に配し、炉室内への窒素ガス流量を16L(25℃における体積)/分として、10℃/分の割合で室温から昇温し、1000℃で2時間保持したのち、加熱を止めて自然冷却させ、温度が100℃以下まで下がった時点で電気炉を開放して、低結晶性窒化ホウ素(粉砕前)を回収した。 This was placed in a hexagonal boron nitride container (internal volume: 1.4 L), placed in an electric furnace (TV-200, manufactured by Tokai High Heat Industrial Co., Ltd.) having a furnace chamber volume of 16 L, and the nitrogen gas flow rate into the furnace chamber.
