(Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to an aluminum nitride powder in which the degree of agglomeration of primary particles is small, and a method for producing the same. (Prior Art) Aluminum nitride powder has recently been in the spotlight as a raw material for aluminum nitride sintered bodies, which have high thermal conductivity and are extremely useful as electronic materials. Aluminum nitride powder is, for example,
It is known from the publication No. 59-50008. The aluminum nitride powder described in the above publication has high purity and fine particles, and is used as a raw material for an aluminum nitride sintered body having excellent properties such as high thermal conductivity and translucency. That is, the above publication describes an aluminum nitride powder that has an average particle size of 2 ÎŒm or less, has an oxygen content of 1.5% by weight or less, and contains cationic impurities of 0.3% by weight or less when the aluminum nitride composition is AlN. It is shown. (Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The above-mentioned aluminum nitride powder has high purity and fine particles, and thus serves as a raw material for an aluminum nitride sintered body having excellent properties. However, when the above aluminum nitride powder is sintered after being formed into a sheet etc., the shrinkage rate due to sintering is large.
The dimensional stability was not fully satisfactory. (Means for Solving the Problems) Therefore, the present inventors have conducted research with the aim of obtaining aluminum nitride powder that has a relatively small shrinkage rate during sintering and has good dimensional stability.
As a result, it was discovered that an aluminum nitride powder having a specific relationship between the average particle size calculated from the specific surface area and the average particle size measured by the sedimentation method achieves the above object, and the present invention was completed. Ivy. That is, in the present invention, the average particle diameter (D 1 ) calculated from the specific surface area and the average particle diameter (D 2 ) measured by the sedimentation method are determined by the following formula: 0.2 ÎŒmâŠD 1 âŠ1.5 ÎŒm D 2 /D 1 âŠ2.60 This is an aluminum nitride powder that satisfies both of the following. The specific surface area in the present invention is obtained by nitrogen gas adsorption using the BET method. The average particle diameter (D 1 ) can be determined from this specific surface area by converting it into a true sphere. Average particle diameter (D 1 ) determined using this method
represents the primary particle size of aluminum nitride powder. On the other hand, the average particle size (D 2 ) measured using a sedimentation method, for example, Horiba's automatic particle size distribution analyzer CAPA-500, represents the average particle size of aggregated particles formed by agglomeration of primary particles. . In the present invention, the average particle diameter (D 1 ) calculated from the above specific surface area must be in the range of 0.2 ÎŒmâŠD 1 âŠ1.5 ÎŒm. Aluminum nitride powder with a D 1 of less than 0.2 ÎŒm has a large specific surface area and accordingly an excessively large oxygen content, making it impossible to obtain a sintered body with excellent physical properties. Aluminum nitride powder with D 1 exceeding 1.5 ÎŒm cannot be sintered to a sufficient degree, making it impossible to obtain a dense sintered body. The above average particle size (D 1 ) is 0.3 ÎŒmâŠD 1 âŠ1.0 ÎŒm
The range is preferably 0.3 ÎŒmâŠD 1
More preferably, the range is âŠ0.7 ÎŒm. Next, the average particle size (D 1 ) calculated from the specific surface area and the average particle size (D 2 ) measured by the sedimentation method are as follows:
D 2 /D 1 must be 2.60. If the value of D 2 /D 1 exceeds 2.60, aluminum nitride powder with a sufficiently small shrinkage rate during sintering cannot be obtained. D 2 /D 1 is preferably 2.50 or less, and more preferably 2.40 or less from the viewpoint of dimensional stability. When aluminum nitride powder is produced by the method described below, generally 2.00âŠ
Powders in the range D 2 /D 1 âŠ2.60 can be obtained. Incidentally, the aluminum nitride powder described in JP-A-59-50008 mentioned above has a specific surface area (4.2
The average particle diameter (D 1 ) calculated from m 2 /g) is 0.44 ÎŒm.
and the average particle size (D 2 ) measured by the sedimentation method.
is 1.22 ÎŒm, and D 2 /D 1 =2.77. The aluminum nitride powder of the present invention has D 2 /D 1 âŠ
2.60, it can be said that the powder has a relatively small degree of aggregation of primary particles. The aluminum nitride powder of the present invention only needs to satisfy the above conditions, but in order to obtain an aluminum nitride sintered body with further excellent thermal conductivity, it is necessary to have a low oxygen content and cationic impurities. preferable. That is, when AlN has an aluminum nitride composition, the oxygen content as an impurity is 1.5% by weight or less,
Aluminum nitride powder containing 0.3% by weight or less of cationic impurities is preferred. Furthermore, aluminum nitride powder having an oxygen content of 0.4 to 1.3% by weight and a cationic impurity of 0.2% by weight or less is more suitable. Note that aluminum nitride in the present invention is a 1:1 compound of aluminum and nitrogen, and anything other than this is treated as an impurity. However, the surface of aluminum nitride powder is inevitably oxidized in the air.
Al-N bonds are replaced by Al-O bonds,
This bonded Al is not considered a cationic impurity.
Therefore, metal aluminum that does not have Al--N or Al--O bonds is a cationic impurity. The aluminum nitride powder in the present invention may be obtained by any method. A typical method for producing aluminum nitride powder that is generally suitably employed will be described below.
Carbon, which is a raw material in the present invention, has a specific specific surface area and oil absorption amount. That is, the specific surface area is 60
m 2 /g or more, preferably 100 to 300 m 2 /g.
In addition, the oil absorption amount is 80c.c./g or more, preferably 100c.c./g or more.
~200c.c./g. If the specific surface area and oil absorption amount are out of the above range, the aluminum nitride powder of the present invention described above cannot be obtained. Furthermore, the apparent density of carbon often affects the degree of aggregation of the resulting primary particles of aluminum nitride powder. Among the above-mentioned aluminum nitride powders of the present invention, in particular when obtaining one in which D 2 /D 1 âŠ2.50, the apparent density of carbon is preferably 1.90 to 2.10 g/cc. As for the alumina which is one of the raw materials, one represented by Al 2 O 3 can be used without any restriction. It may also be alumina obtained by firing an aluminum compound that can be turned into alumina by firing as described below, such as aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate, aluminum nitrate, alum, or aluminum hydroxide. That is, an aluminum compound that can be turned into alumina by firing is mixed with carbon,
The present invention can also adopt a method in which the aluminum compound is decomposed into alumina by firing under the conditions described below, and then the aluminum compound is further fired to perform a nitriding reaction. The average particle diameter of alumina is preferably 2 ÎŒm or less, preferably 1 ÎŒm or less, as measured by a sedimentation method, in view of the ease with which the nitriding reaction progresses. Most of the impurities contained in the raw materials carbon and alumina described above remain in the aluminum nitride powder as impurities. Therefore, in order to obtain high purity aluminum nitride powder, the ash content of carbon should be 0.3% by weight or less, preferably 0.2% by weight or less, and the purity of alumina should be 99.0% by weight or more, preferably 99.5% by weight or more. It is preferable that there be. The mixing ratio of alumina and carbon is generally 1:0.4
~1:3 range, preferably 1:0.4~1: to reduce the amount of impurities mixed in from carbon ash.
A range of 0.7 is preferred. Mixing may be done either dry or wet, but wet mixing is usually preferred in order to achieve sufficient mixing. Generally, it is preferable to use a ball mill as the mixing means, but it is preferable that the containers, balls, etc. used in this case be made of high-purity alumina or plastic to prevent contamination with impurities as much as possible. Examples of the ball mill include known ones, such as a rotary ball mill and a vibroball mill. Mixing by an attritor may also be employed. Further, in order to increase the reaction rate and minimize the amount of unreacted alumina, it is preferable to perform sufficiently uniform mixing. The mixed powder is fired in a firing furnace at a temperature of 1300 to 1700°C, preferably 1450 to 1650°C, for usually 3 to 10 hours to obtain the aluminum nitride powder of the present invention. If the firing temperature is lower than the above lower limit temperature, the nitriding reaction will not proceed sufficiently and the desired aluminum nitride powder may not be obtained, which is not preferable. In addition, when the firing temperature is higher than the above-mentioned upper limit temperature, the nitriding reaction proceeds sufficiently, but the particle size of the aluminum nitride powder that is produced often becomes large or the agglomeration becomes significant, making it difficult to obtain the fine powder of the present invention. This is not preferable because it may not be possible. During the firing, it is preferable to take care to ensure that the materials of the firing furnace and the firing boat do not cause impurities. In addition, the firing atmosphere is preferably an atmosphere containing nitrogen, usually high-purity nitrogen gas or a gas in which ammonia gas is added to it.Usually, these reaction gases are continuously supplied in sufficient quantities to allow the nitriding reaction to proceed. Alternatively, baking may be performed while feeding intermittently. Since the above-fired mixture contains unreacted carbon in addition to the aluminum nitride powder, it is generally preferable to sinter the mixture at a temperature of 650 to 750°C in air or oxygen to oxidize and remove the remaining carbon. If the oxidation temperature is too high, the surface of the aluminum nitride powder will be excessively oxidized, making it difficult to obtain the desired powder, so it is preferable to select an appropriate oxidation temperature and time. (Effects) The aluminum nitride powder of the present invention has a small degree of aggregation of primary particles. Therefore, when sintering is performed using the aluminum nitride powder of the present invention, the linear shrinkage rate can be reduced to 20% or less, and further to 18% or less. As described above, the aluminum nitride powder of the present invention has good dimensional stability, and can reduce the difference in shrinkage rate with metal, especially in the simultaneous firing method in which a high-melting point metal paste is printed on the surface and fired. It is preferably used because it can. Furthermore, when aluminum nitride powder with low oxygen content and cationic impurities is used as a raw material, in addition to the above effects, it is possible to obtain an aluminum nitride sintered body that has high thermal conductivity and even translucency. can.
