DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to bismuth oxide used as a contrast agent in medical instruments such as vascular catheters.

[従来の技術] 近時、X線透視下で用いられる心臓カテーテル等の医療
器具の発達は目覚しく、各種の器具が開発されている。
[Prior Art] In recent years, medical instruments such as cardiac catheters used under X-ray fluoroscopy have made remarkable progress, and various instruments have been developed.

These instruments were made by kneading Teflon, polyurethane, etc. with barium sulfate as a contrast agent and molding them. However, when using barium sulfate as a contrast agent,
In order to obtain the desired contrast effect, the amount of resin should be 40 to 60%.
It is necessary to add a large amount of barium sulfate, such as % by weight, to the resin. However, in this case, the properties of the resin deteriorate significantly, making it unusable as a medical device.

このため、実際には造影効果を犠牲にし、樹脂が使用し
うるちのとなる範囲内で硫酸バリウムを添加していた。
For this reason, in practice, barium sulfate was added to the resin within the range that could be used, at the expense of the contrast effect.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In order to eliminate the above drawbacks, a method has been proposed in which a bismuth compound mainly consisting of bismuth oxide is used as a substitute for barium sulfate.
It has been adopted. This is because the contrast effect of bismuth compounds is more than twice that of barium sulfate. However, conventional bismuth oxide is yellow, and when it is used in a color such as blue, which is preferred for medical instruments, there is a problem that the color becomes cloudy.

If you try to use white bismuth compounds such as bismuth oxychloride, bismuth subcarbonate, bismuth subnitrate, etc. to avoid this, these bismuth compounds will decompose due to heating when mixed with the resin, causing color and gas release. Not only that, but when trying to use the obtained product, there is a high possibility that acids and the like that are harmful to the human body will elute.

[Function] In the present invention, the pH of the bismuth nitrate solution obtained by dissolving bismuth oxide in nitric acid is set to 6 to 9. If the pH is below 6, the particle size of the reaction product generated exceeds 10 μm, and it cannot be used as a contrast agent. This is because it cannot be uniformly mixed with the resin during use, and if the pH exceeds 9, it will be colored yellow during roasting in the subsequent process.

The amount of alkali persulfate added is 0.16 to 0.60 mol per 1 mol of bismuth in the slurry.
This is because if the amount is less than 0.60 mol, the whiteness will be less than 93 and the yellowness will be more than 11. If it exceeds 0.60 mol, the amount of persulfate that does not directly participate in the reaction will increase, impairing economic efficiency. The reason why the reaction temperature is set at 60 to 90°C is that sufficient reaction does not occur below 60°C, and even if heated above 90°C, the reaction rate does not increase any further, and on the contrary, the danger in handling increases. This is because it impairs economic efficiency. The reaction time is required to be at least 1 hour, and if the reaction time is shorter than this, a product with sufficient whiteness cannot be obtained.

The precipitate obtained for this purpose is roasted in order to remove volatile substances and substances that are easily decomposed, and by doing so, it is possible to suppress the generation of decomposition products when mixed with resin. . For this reason, the roasting temperature must be 400°C or higher. However, when the temperature exceeds 600°C, the white bismuth oxide composition decomposes.

For this reason, it is necessary to set the roasting temperature to 400 to 600°C.
