JP-A No. 55-84558 discloses that wool fibers are made into felt by shrinkage treatment, then pelletized and formed to have an apparent specific gravity above a certain level, and then processed in a low-temperature grinding device such as a hammer mill that is cooled to below -40°C. Grind in the presence of liquid nitrogen. The obtained wool fiber powder is a fine powder of about 10 to 80 μm.

有する。Furthermore, in JP-A-57-163392, keratin materials such as animal hair and feathers are brought into contact with an aqueous solution containing a surfactant such as an alkylbenzene sulfonate, and the resulting hydrated keratin material is heated to -80°C. It is frozen below and further pulverized by a friction method or an impact method to prepare a fine powder. The powder of keratin material is colorless, odorless and has uniform properties.

。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In both of the above methods, the former requires the use of liquid nitrogen and the cooling of a low-temperature grinding device such as a hammer mill to below -40°C, while the latter requires the use of liquid nitrogen to cool the keratin material to below -40°C. Since it is necessary to freeze the water-containing material at -80° C. or lower, an expensive freezing device must be installed, and the cost of the device becomes extremely high.

Since the manufacturing process of protein powder is complicated and the production efficiency is not high, the manufacturing cost of the obtained powder is very high.

め、顕微鏡で拡大した粒子構造は先鋭的に尖っている。[0006] Furthermore, since the protein powders produced by the above methods are all made by directly pulverizing the wool or hair itself, they can only be pulverized to a particle size of about 20 μm due to the strong bonds of their molecular structures, which can be further refined. Pulverization requires a huge amount of energy, making it expensive, and even if it is pulverized, there is a risk that the protein molecules themselves may be destroyed. The obtained protein powder was crushed by impact using a hammer mill, etc., so the particle structure when magnified under a microscope has sharp points.

)。On the other hand, it is well known that when wool fibers are treated with a dilute aqueous alkaline solution, they undergo so-called hypershrinkage, in which they are more bent and folded than α-keratin. When wool is treated with alkali or heat, it produces a secondary amino acid, lanthionine, which is not found in natural wool, and is also known to be induced by cleavage of the disulfide bond of cystine (Large Organic Chemistry).

れてしまうとの考えが一般的であった。Since wool keratin is difficult to dissolve without decomposition, it has already been disclosed that if the cystine bonds between keratin molecules are cut or partially oxidized, most of the wool keratin can be dissolved in a dilute aqueous ammonia solution. However, when wool fibers are heated and treated with alkali to liquefy,
It was generally believed that the hydrogen bonds and cystine bonds in wool keratin are broken appropriately and the wool is immediately decomposed into various amino acids without producing a partial decomposition product of keratin, which is a high-molecular protein.

It is added dropwise with stirring into a dilute acid solution whose pH is maintained at about 6 or less to precipitate a yellow-white keratin partial decomposition product. If the viscous liquid contains impurities, it may be filtered before dropping into the dilute acid solution. The viscous liquid is preferably dropped into a large volume of dilute acid solution, for example at a pH of about 3-4.

When the precipitated keratin partial decomposition product is pulverized, the keratin partial decomposition product becomes porous small spheres with a particle size of 10 μm or less and an average of about 5 to 6 μm, which is compared to the particle size of about 20 μm that is possible with conventional methods. Much more detailed.

てから乾燥すればケラチン部分分解物を得る。When this viscous liquid is dropped into a large amount of dilute acetic acid aqueous solution with stirring at a pH of about 3 to 4, a sulfur odor is generated, indicating that the cystine bonds in wool keratin are being severed over time. It is clear that a yellow-white keratin partial decomposition product is finally precipitated. The precipitated keratin partial decomposition product is further washed with water while stirring to neutralize it to a pH of about 6 to 7, passed through a mangle, compressed and dehydrated, and then dried to obtain a keratin partial decomposition product.

It is a high molecular weight protein. Wool powder, which is a partially decomposed product of keratin, is granulated by stirring during solidification, and thus has a coarse particle size of up to about 3 mm.
