カ担体の生産効率が低く、経済的でない。[Operation] The silica gel slurry used in the method of the present invention may be a commercially available silica gel dispersed in water, but since silica gel is an aggregate, it is preferable to select one having a strong gel structure. It is preferable. The silica gel slurry of the present invention can also be prepared from a commercially available silica sol. In this case, the silica sol has a concentration of 1 wt%
As described above, it is possible to use those in the range of preferably 5 to 40 wt%. If the concentration of the silica sol is 1 wt% or less, the silica gel obtained therefrom cannot have a strong gel structure. For gelling silica gel,
Although any known method can be adopted, a method in which an acid is added to silica gel to once adjust the pH to an acidic range and then an aqueous alkaline solution is added to gel the silica gel has a strong gel structure. preferable. Whether the commercially available silica gel is dispersed in water or prepared from silica sol, the silica gel slurry used in the present invention has a SiO 2 concentration in the range of 1 to 60 wt%. 60wt
%, The entire slurry is uniformly mixed by stirring to obtain a desired p
It is difficult to maintain H, and if it is 1 wt% or less, the production efficiency of the silica carrier is low, which is not economical.

としての機能が著しく低下するからである。The silicic acid solution used as a binder can be obtained by dealkalizing water glass with an ion exchange resin. In order for the silicic acid solution to exhibit its function as a binder, its concentration (SiO 2 concentration) is preferably 8 wt% or less, generally 1 to 5 wt%. This is because when the concentration is higher than this, the silicic acid solution easily becomes sol or gel, and when it becomes sol or gel, the function as a binder is significantly deteriorated.

ケイ酸液の添加を、連続的にもまた断続的にも行うこと
ができるが、ケイ酸液の添加に際しては次の条件が順守
されなければならない。In the method of the present invention, the silicic acid solution can be added to the silica gel slurry continuously or intermittently, but the following conditions must be observed when adding the silicic acid solution. .
第1の条件はケイ酸液が添加されるスラリーの液温を50

カリ金属などの不純物をスラリーに持ち込まず、従って
不純物の洗浄除去を省略できる点で、極めて望ましい。The first condition is that the temperature of the slurry to which the silicic acid solution is added is 50
It is to keep the temperature above ℃, preferably above 80 ℃, and keep the pH to above 8.5, preferably above 9. The reason is that if the liquid temperature or pH value is low, the solubility of silica cannot be sufficiently increased. When the liquid temperature is 100 ° C. or higher, a pressure vessel is usually used. PH of slurry
Is always kept at 8.5 or more, preferably 9 or more during the addition of the silicic acid solution, and at the same time as the addition of the silicic acid solution, the alkaline aqueous solution is added to the slurry. As the alkaline aqueous solution in this case, ammonia water, water-soluble amines, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and the like can be used. Of these, the use of ammonia water is extremely desirable in that impurities such as alkali metals are not brought into the slurry, and thus cleaning and removal of impurities can be omitted.
ケイ酸液添加に際しての第2の条件は、添加速度と添加

えない範囲にある。The second condition when adding the silicic acid solution relates to the addition rate and the total amount of addition, and the addition rate of the silicic acid solution is 1
The addition amount of the silicic acid solution per minute should be 1/1000 or less of the SiO 2 amount contained in the silica gel slurry in terms of SiO 2 amount, and the total addition amount should be in terms of SiO 2 amount.
It is in a range not exceeding 50 wt% of the amount of SiO 2 contained in the silica gel slurry.

より、大細孔容積で高粒子強度の多孔性シリカ担体が製
造できる理由を、次のように考えることができる。According to the findings obtained by the present inventors, when the silicic acid solution was added to the silica gel slurry by increasing the addition rate of the silicic acid solution above the specified value, other conditions were kept the same as those of the present invention. However, a porous silica carrier having a large pore volume and high particle strength cannot be obtained. From this, the reason why a porous silica carrier having a large pore volume and high particle strength can be produced by the method of the present invention can be considered as follows.

スラリーに対する1分間当りのケイ酸液の添加量は、S
iO2量換算でシリカゲルスラリーに含まれるSiO2
量の1/1000以下とすることが必要であり、好ましい添
加速度は1/4000〜1/20000の範囲内にある。That is, when the silicic acid solution is added to the silica gel slurry at the above addition rate, it is initially dissolved in the slurry, but the silicic acid is oversaturated and dispersed on the silica gel particles (aggregate) in a dispersed state while continuing the addition. Precipitates and serves as a binder to bond the particles together. If the addition of the silicic acid solution is carried out at a low speed, the above-mentioned dissolution-supersaturation-precipitation can be repeated, so that the particles previously bonded together are further bonded to each other, and as a result, they are dispersed in the initial slurry. Since the individual silica gel particles that had been agglomerated and bonded while maintaining an appropriate particle gap, they were dried,
It is presumed that the calcination can produce a porous silica carrier having a large pore volume and high particle strength. In exchange for this,
If the addition rate of the silicic acid solution is high, the added silicic acid will gel independently, so it cannot function as a binder, and therefore it is considered that the desired porous silica carrier cannot be obtained. To be Therefore, in the present invention, the addition rate of the silicic acid solution is extremely important, and the addition amount of the silicic acid solution per minute to the silica gel slurry is S
SiO 2 contained in silica gel slurry in terms of iO 2 amount
It is necessary to set the amount to 1/1000 or less, and the preferable addition rate is within the range of 1/4000 to 1/20000.
ケイ酸液の添加総量について言えば、その量が余り多す

ーの濃度を考慮して選定することが好ましいが、一般的
には添加総量はSiO2量換算で、シリカゲルスラリー
に含まれるSiO2量の50wt%を越えない範囲内にあ
る。As for the total amount of the silicic acid solution added, if the amount is too large, there is a concern that the pores of the silica gel particles that are aggregated and bonded while maintaining an appropriate particle gap may be blocked by the precipitation of silicic acid. From this point of view, it is preferable to select the total addition amount of the silicic acid liquid in consideration of the concentration of the silica gel slurry to which the silicic acid liquid is added, but generally, the total addition amount is the silica gel slurry in terms of SiO 2 amount. It does not exceed 50 wt% of the amount of SiO 2 contained in.

ることができる。In the method of the present invention, when the silicic acid solution is intermittently added to the silica gel slurry, an operation of adding an acid to lower the pH of the slurry to 7 or less between each silicic acid addition operation. Is preferably interposed. And
As the acid used in this operation, mineral acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and nitric acid, and organic acids such as acetic acid, oxalic acid and formic acid can be arbitrarily used.

に、大いに貢献しているものと推察される。At present, it is not always clear how the intervention of the operation of lowering the pH of the slurry to 7 has an effect on the silica gel in the slurry. However, in view of the fact that interposing the operation of shifting the pH of the slurry to the acidic range improves the particle strength of the silica carrier finally obtained, as compared with the case where it does not intervene,
It is assumed that the shift to the acidic range greatly contributes to the enhancement of the binding force between silica gel particles.

性シリカ担体を得ることができる。Regardless of whether or not an operation of shifting the slurry to an acidic region is involved, the silica gel slurry to which a predetermined amount of silicic acid solution has been added is dried by a usual method. When it is desired to obtain the silica carrier as a molded product, it is desirable that the slurry be dehydrated, if necessary, molded into a desired size and shape, and then dried. Further, when it is desired to obtain spherical particles, it is preferable to spray-dry the slurry. After drying, the porous silica carrier having a large pore volume and a high particle strength, which is an object of the present invention, can be obtained by firing in air at a temperature of 300 to 1100 ° C.

5μと小さいため、口当たりに関しても不都合がない。The silica carrier thus produced can be used for various purposes. For example, silica micro beads having an average particle size of 5 μ can be produced by the method of Japanese Patent Application No. 60-11719. Since the pore volume of this silica microbead is as large as 1.0 to 2.5 cc / g, it is very effective if these are used as a carrier for liquid chromatography. Similarly, it can be used as a carrier for separating proteins and the like. Furthermore, it is also effective as a filter aid. Further, if a dye is impregnated into the large pore volume, it can be used as a dye carrier. If you put a pattern directly on the kamaboko with a dye, there is a drawback that the dye does not get to a point where a clear pattern cannot be obtained. However, when a pattern is formed by using the dye carrier, squeezing does not occur, so that a kamaboko having a clear pattern can be obtained. Moreover, since the particle size of this carrier is as small as 5 μ, there is no inconvenience in mouth feel.

る。Further, when the pores of the silica carrier of the present invention are impregnated with perfume, the pore volume becomes 3 to 8 as compared with the conventional microbeads.
Since it is twice as long, it is possible to obtain a long-lasting perfume-containing silica carrier by increasing the impregnation amount. Similarly, by impregnating the antifungal agent, it is possible to obtain the antifungal agent-containing silica microbeads having a great effect and long-lasting.

For example, a phthalic anhydride catalyst can be produced by impregnating this type of catalyst carrier with vanadyl sulfate and potassium sulfate and calcining at 500 ° C.
