It relates to a method of imparting some kind of function to a glass body.

(OC 2 H 5 ) 4 etc.) before or during the process of hydrolyzing, adding an aqueous solution containing salts (metal ions) that color the glass, drying and firing to obtain colored glass, for example, Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication 1987-
It is known from publications such as No. 11845 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 185441/1983. These methods are interesting as a means of developing a glass manufacturing method called the sol-gel method, and are characterized by the ability to easily obtain colored quartz glass, which is difficult to obtain using normal melting methods. It has the advantage of not requiring much high-temperature firing in the manufacturing process.

障害となること、などである。 However, the conventional sol-gel method is not without drawbacks. For one thing, conventional methods are not without drawbacks. One is that conventional methods have only proposed so-called colored glasses, in which metal ions with a coloring function are contained in the glass.Second, there are circumstances that cannot be avoided from the sol-gel method. Moisture remains in the glass, and this moisture acts as a harmful substance when the glass performs various functions.Furthermore, when it dries after hydrolysis, it tends to crack or distort, and the thickness (to a certain extent) For example, it is difficult to obtain a glass body with a thickness of 5 mm or more), which poses a serious obstacle to creating functional glass that requires a certain degree of thickness.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method for producing glass that fully demonstrates its performance.

水溶液を添加することは、溶液を調整することに
よつて金属アルコキシドの加水分解反応を促進す
る触媒的働きがあり、推奨できる。 As mentioned above, there are various types of ions that impart functions to glass, but in the present invention, these active ions are used in the form of an aqueous solution in which they are dissolved. In short, the aqueous solution only needs to have ionic species dissolved in it, but in order to make the ionic material into an aqueous solution, it is of course possible to use a pure aqueous solution, but it is also perfectly acceptable to use an acidic aqueous solution or an alkaline aqueous solution. . In many cases, active ionic materials exist in the form of metals, salts, oxides, and hydroxides, so to dissolve them, in addition to pure water, diluted hydrochloric acid, diluted nitric acid, or diluted sulfuric acid are required. , acetic acid aqueous solution, or ammonium hydroxide aqueous solution is quick and practical as a means of obtaining an aqueous solution. In addition, it is recommended to add an acidic or alkaline aqueous solution because it has a catalytic effect to promote the hydrolysis reaction of the metal alkoxide by adjusting the solution.

様であると言える。 Water is necessary as a solvent because it causes the hydrolysis reaction to occur. However, if the ionic species is added in the form of an aqueous solution, it may not be necessary to add it separately as water. Furthermore, assuming that the liquid mixture is in the form of an extremely thin film, the water is supplied from the air, so it may not even be necessary to add water to the liquid mixture at all. As mentioned above, the addition of an acid or alkaline solution as a solvent promotes the hydrolysis reaction, so it is preferable to add the acid or alkaline solution. Furthermore, as a metal alkoxide, M(OCH 3 )
When x is used, it is preferable to add methyl alcohol as a component of the solvent, and add ethyl alcohol using M(OC 2 H 5 ) x as a component of the solvent because this promotes the hydrolysis reaction. It can be said that this is an embodiment.

発明の実施を妨げるものではない。 Next, the appropriate proportions of each component in the liquid mixture to be hydrolyzed will be described. Assuming that 1 mol of silicon tetraalkoxide (Si(OR) 4 ) is used, the amount of metal ions as ion species can theoretically range from 1PPb to 1.0 mol. In addition, the amount of water (H 2 O) added can range from no addition to about 100 moles in practical terms, considering that water is supplied from water vapor in the atmosphere.
If the amount is too small, the hydrolysis reaction will be delayed, and if it is too large, there will be problems in the drying and baking steps, so in practice, about 2 to 20 moles is appropriate. Acids such as hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, or alkaline solutions such as ammonium hydroxide, may be added at all or in appropriate amounts, but the maximum amount is about 10 moles, and adding more than that does not seem to make much sense. The lower alcohol added as a component of the solvent acts as a mediator to improve the compatibility between the metal alkoxide and the aqueous solution containing active ions, and as a result, it is recognized that it has the effect of completing the hydrolysis reaction in a short time. The appropriate amount of such lower alcohols to be added is about 0.2 to 10 moles, but the practice of the present invention will not be hindered even if they are not added at all.

加的に混入できることである。 Since the hydrolysis reaction of the liquid mixture mixed at the above ratio will proceed only slowly if it is kept as it is, stirring and heating operations are performed to accelerate the reaction. For stirring, there are methods such as using a stirring device using a magnet as a rotor or applying ultrasonic waves to the mixed liquid. The end point of the reaction can be easily detected by a dramatic change, such as immediately after a sudden exotherm occurs or when the mixture becomes transparent. In this way, a sol solution in which the hydrolysis reaction has been completed is obtained. Interestingly, aqueous solutions containing active ionic species that impart functionality to glass can not only be added before and during hydrolysis, but can also be added additionally after the hydrolysis reaction is complete without any hindrance. be.

るものである。 The obtained sol solution is spread into a thin film on any container or flat surface, left to dry in the air while keeping humidity changes small until it hardens to the extent that it can be handled with tweezers, etc., and then heated at room temperature to about 100℃. It will take a few days to dry slowly. At this point, a considerable amount of water and other unnecessary components will be removed. The thickness of the developed thin film is several tens of microns, with an upper limit of about 1 mm. In any case, homogeneous drying can be achieved by drying in a thin film state. Subsequently, multiple sheets of the obtained thin film bodies were laminated,
Up to 600℃, the temperature is increased at a rate of 10 to 50℃/h.
From 600°C to 900°C, a foaming phenomenon occurs due to OH groups, so the temperature is raised even more slowly to produce a thick glass body. To prevent foaming caused by OH groups during firing, it is possible to create dense functional glass without bubbles by firing in a halogen gas atmosphere such as chlorine gas, or firing in a vacuum degassing atmosphere. That's what you get.
