DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure of an object or a substance which is mechanically and electrically relaxed by utilizing a water group having specific parameters obtained by controlling the structures of raw water and raw liquid. And a method for promoting the growth of plants, cells, and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, water is used in the process of manufacturing and managing chemical products and molded products including polymers, and in terms of process and quality,
It has been empirically known to adversely affect and, in some cases, produce good results. On the other hand, by applying external stimulus to the water, for example, water treated under a constant magnetic flux density removes iron rust in the piping, or using so-called ionic water,
There are also industrially meaningful uses such as preserving the freshness of food and seafood, but unfortunately, in any case, it is necessary to identify the structure of water and selectively control the structure. Almost no use or application is found. In particular, the effect of water is very large for objects and material systems that are mechanically and electrically relaxed.
There are almost no techniques for structural control using the above viewpoint.

Conventionally, means for measuring the average structure of water include density, viscosity, sound velocity, Raman spectroscopy, NMR relaxation time, time-resolved dielectric relaxation method, etc., but various external stimuli are applied. In spite of the fact that the structure of water has changed, it is not possible to determine the difference in the structure of water, and furthermore, at present, the distribution of the structure cannot be specified at all. Conversely, it can be said that there is a possibility that more microscopic areas have changed. This is partly due to
Applying various types of treated water to mechanically and electrically relaxing systems such as polymers, and finding new effects themselves,
At present, it has not been implemented because the underlying scientific basis is sparse.

[0004] On the other hand, when water treated with various external stimuli or its external stimulus method is applied, it is said that water clusters become small or without scientific evidence. It is true that they are believed to be in areas where quantitative evaluation is not possible, such as good quality, faster plant growth, or a change in taste of specialty items. Scientific significance is important in these areas as well.

Recently, it has recently been found that the mechanical properties and stability of physical properties of polyamides and celluloses are almost determined by the mechanical relaxation mode at an extremely low temperature (-50 ° C. or lower). ing. As mentioned earlier based on this fact, if it is specified that the microscopic state of water has changed, it is adapted to control the mechanical and dielectric relaxation of polymers and their solutions, In some cases, it can be converted to a more useful product. That is,
It is possible that a very wide range of technology can be created.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION From the above viewpoints, the present inventors have first developed means for evaluating the microstructure of water and its distribution. On the basis of this, the present invention provides water whose structure is basically controlled, and controls the structure of a polymer or a solution thereof by utilizing the water or an external stimulus that gives the water. It specifically provides a way to convert to a final product.

[0007]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, means for defining the microstructure of various kinds of treated water by external stimulus for commonly used distilled water or ion-exchanged water (raw water). It is imperative to develop and to define the water structure for the stimulation conditions. The present inventors have applied the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature curve measurement method to various types of treated water, and as a result of intensive studies, when given a specific external stimulus condition, the raw material water or a substance compatible therewith. It has been found that a useful water group consisting of three groups can be obtained from the raw material aqueous solution containing the groups. Furthermore, the object or material which is mechanically and electrically relaxed by these three water groups is subjected to treatment such as impregnation or the like, and the solid structure, phase separation phenomenon, system As a result of examination from the viewpoint of the structure forming property in and the reactivity with the substance, the water group is a new structure control that cannot be achieved with a system to which ordinary water or a substance compatible therewith is added, It has been found that the reaction can be accelerated accordingly, and the present invention has been accomplished.

That is, the present invention relates to (1) a heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature curve (see FIG. 1) for water obtained by the method defined in the present text, based on raw water.
Each peak temperature Tm _i (i = a, 5) of five relaxation peaks (a, b,..., E from the low temperature side) appearing at 0 ° C. to −20 ° C.
b,..., e) and the depolarization current value Im _i (i = a, b,.
e) is controlled to satisfy the following condition:
Gunsui, at least one water groups selected from the second group water, and the third 3 group of water groups group water, first _{Gunsui; Tm a <-143 ℃ Tm b} <-120 ℃ Tm c <-102 _{℃ Tm e <-36 ℃ Im a} / Im c> 5.0 second _{Gunsui; Tm a <-143 ℃ Tm b} <-120 ℃ Tm c <-100 ℃ Im a / Im b <2.0 Im a / Im _c <4.0 third group water; Tm _a > −142 ° C. Im _a / Im _c > 5.0 Im _a / I m _d <1.5 or Im _d / I m _c > 4.5 (2) Water In contrast to the water group described in (1) above, which is obtained by mixing a substance group compatible with water, or a raw material aqueous liquid containing a substance group compatible with water, water itself essentially contains the water group described in (1) above. Using the water group according to the above (1) and (3) the water group according to the above (1) and (2), which are prepared by applying an external stimulus to satisfy the conditions, mechanically and electrically relax the water group.

A method for controlling the structure of the object or the substance system, which comprises applying an external stimulus to satisfy the conditions described in (6), wherein a reactive substance is present in the raw material aqueous solution according to (2). After treating a mechanically and electrically relaxed object using the system, the water itself essentially applies an external stimulus to satisfy the condition described in (1) above, and the reaction with the object. How to promote.

That is, the technical principle of the present invention is to apply a specific external stimulus to ordinary water to control the structure of the water or to apply the external stimulus in the presence of ordinary water to basically apply water to the water. This is an extremely wide-ranging technique of controlling the structure of a substance or a substance system having a site where can act, and significantly improving their usefulness.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail. The three groups of water referred to in the present invention appear at -150 ° C to -20 ° C in the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature curve (see Fig. 1) for water obtained by the method defined in the present text, based on the raw water. The peak temperatures Tm _i (i = a, b,..., E) of the five relaxation peaks (a, b,..., E from the low temperature side) and the depolarization current value Im _i (i = a, b,. ) Are three water groups controlled to satisfy the following conditions. These water groups can be used alone or in any combination and mixing ratio.

[0011] The first _{Gunsui; Tm a <-143 ℃ Tm b} <-120 ℃ Tm c <-102 ℃ Tm e <-36 ℃ Im a / Im c> 5.0 second Gunsui; Tm _a <- _{143 ℃ Tm b <-120 ℃ Tm} c <-100 ℃ Im a / Im b <2.0 Im a / Im c <4.0 third _{Gunsui; Tm a> -142 ℃ Im a} / Im c> 5 here .0 Im _a / Im _d <1.5 or Im _d / Im _c> 4.5, first, thermally stimulated depolarization current (I) - describing a method of measuring the temperature curve (T). In the thermal stimulation depolarization current-temperature measurement method, a DC electric field is applied to a sample to create a quasi-equilibrium excited state called polarization, and the temperature is lowered as it is to freeze the previous polarization. The polarization behavior is observed as a current value. Specifically, the aqueous sample was allowed to stand still between the electrodes in helium gas, which is an inert gas, and frozen at −10 ° C. (freezing temperature: T _f ) for 15 minutes (freezing time t _f ). minutes (polarization time: t _p) -10
° C (polarization temperature: T _p ), 100 V / mm (electric field strength:
By applying a DC electric field of V _p ), the dipole moment of the sample is oriented in the direction of the electric field. After that, -1
After rapidly cooling to 65 ° C. (depolarization temperature: T _d ),
After releasing the electric field and maintaining the temperature isothermally (depolarization time: t _d ) for 2 minutes, depolarization of the dipole moment occurs in the process of increasing the temperature at a rate of 7 ° C./min (heating rate: β), -165 ° C
From 5 to around −20 ° C., five peaks a to e can be observed as changes in current intensity. FIG. 1 shows a heat-stimulated depolarization current (I) -temperature (T) curve of deionized water obtained by the above measurement method. Here, the suffix m of T and I indicates the maximum peak, and a to e indicate the peaks appearing sequentially from the low temperature side.
-In the temperature (T) curve, a lower Tm indicates the presence of water having a more mobile structure, and a higher depolarization current intensity indicates a higher fraction of water forming the state. More specifically, as a result of evaluating the motion constituent units of each peak from the temperature rise rate dependence of each of the peaks a to e, the activation energy was generally 4.8 and 6. It is 3, 13.3, and 22.0 kcal / mol, and it can be determined that the cooperative movement constituent unit of water itself is smaller in the lower temperature mode. In other words, it is understood that the molecular motion of water does not form a motion state by water molecules alone, but forms a cooperative motion with an aggregate of a certain number of water molecules as a constituent unit. This is called a cooperative movement unit. Moreover, as is clear from FIG. 1, e peak was observed as a peak of the shoulder which is based on melting of ice subsequent, the lower the peak intensity temperature Tm _e, melting point considered low.

That is, it can be seen that each of the three water groups of the present invention has the following characteristics. First Gunsui: normal raw water from Tm _a, Tm _b, shifts Tm _c is the cold side, in particular, from the Im _a increases, to cooperate motion structural units of water molecules is relatively small Accordingly, the molecular mobility is improved. This corresponds to the commonly expressed interpretation of "water clusters become smaller".

A second Gunsui: relatively than normal raw water, is considered an intermediate state between the third group of water and the first group of water to be described later, although Tm _a does not change the raw water, Tm _b Decreases and I
It characterized that m _a and Im _b is comparable, the first and the second smallest structural unit, has a characteristic to be cooperative.

Third group water: T is relatively higher than ordinary raw water.
m _a is shifted to the high temperature side, from the Im _a decrease, structural units of the cooperative motion of water due to the increase, has a feature that the molecular mobility is lowered further, Ya raw water In the other group 1 and 2 waters, the peak of d which is observed only very little is much larger (in contrast, the existence of the b, c and e peaks becomes unclear). Only features that are selectively increasing.

The starting water used in the present invention is preferably distilled water or ion-exchanged water, but may be ordinary water such as tap water. Further, water containing a trace amount of ionic components can also be used as the raw material aqueous solution, and as the other raw material aqueous solution, those containing a group of substances compatible with the raw material water are also used. The water group of the present invention uses a relatively simple device,
For example, it can be prepared as follows.

First group water: Raw water or raw water-based liquid is placed between the electrodes so as not to touch one of the electrodes, and an electric field gradient of 10
The treatment is performed at 0 V / cm or more, more preferably 500 V / cm or more, preferably for 24 hours or more.

Second group water: raw water or raw water-based liquid is subjected to 30 Hz in an alternating magnetic field having a magnetic flux density of 500 to 15,000 gauss.
It is characterized in that the treatment is carried out in a frequency range of 〜１０10 ⁴ Hz, preferably for 24 hours or more.

Third group water: a raw water or a raw water-based liquid having a peak maximum of 1 to 20 microns in the wavelength distribution of radiation far-infrared ray measured by a black body radiation method, more preferably a wavelength distribution Is supplied to the raw material group directly or indirectly through an object that transmits far-infrared rays, and is preferably treated for 24 hours or more.

According to the present inventors' studies, it is basically considered that the first and second group waters belong to the same category of structure control method as a function of the external stimulation at different frequencies or different wavelengths. It is possible to optionally control the cooperative building blocks of water by changing the wavelength. In particular, the first group water is characterized in that the cooperative movement constituent units are smaller than the ordinary raw water and the molecular mobility of water is higher than the other groups of water. Further, the effect of the processing is related to the processing time, and is not a basic limiting factor, but preferably the above processing conditions,
It is desirable to add processing for several hours or more. Also, the third
The water of the group is crucially different from the other two groups of water, has a larger cooperative structural unit than normal raw water, has a lower molecular mobility, and has a lower water content and other raw water. In the two groups of water, the peak of d, which is observed very little, is significantly large (conversely, the existence of the b and e peaks is unclear), so that only specific cooperative movement constituent units are selectively increased. ing. This third group of water, from our studies,
It is close to that of boiling water cooled, and it is a major feature that it enhances plant growth.

By using the water group of the present invention whose structure is controlled as described above, the structure of an object or a substance system that is mechanically and electrically relaxed can be controlled. In some cases, when converting to a useful product, a water-based liquid group obtained by mixing a substance group basically compatible with water with each of the three groups of water of the present invention, or a water-compatible group. Distilled water containing a group of substances
Or, for ion-exchanged water (hereinafter referred to as raw material aqueous solution),
Essentially, water can also use three kinds of aqueous liquid groups prepared by applying external stimuli to satisfy the conditions of the water group of the present invention. Furthermore, the above-mentioned raw material water group, mechanically, using the raw material aqueous liquid group, mechanically, after treating an object or a substance system that is relaxed, even if the external stimulus described above is applied, the object or the substance system is treated. Structural control is possible. In this case, the treatment means may be any means capable of sufficiently bringing the water group or the water group into contact with the object or substance system, such as immersion, impregnation, wetting, or coating.

Further, when a reactive substance compatible with water is present in the water group of the present invention, it is possible to promote a reaction between the reactive substance and a substance which is mechanically and electrically relaxed. Further, after treating the object with a system in which a reactive substance compatible with the raw water-based liquid is present, water itself applies an external stimulus to satisfy the conditions of the present invention, and the reactive substance and the Reaction with an object can be promoted. Such reactive substances include, for example, Na ⁺ , Li ⁺ , K ⁺ , Ca ²⁺ , Mg
²⁺ , NH ⁴⁺ alkali ion series, Fe ²⁺ , Fe ³⁺ , C
metal ions such as u ²⁺ , Na which is a hydrate of said ions
OH, KOH, LiOH, Mg (OH) ₂ , Ca (O
H) ₂ , Fe (OH) ₂ , Fe (OH) ₃ , Cu (O
H) ₂ Further, NaCl and KC which are chlorides of the above-mentioned ions
1, LiCl, MgCl ₂ , CaCl ₂ , CuCl ₂ , HCl, HNO ₃ , H ₂ SO _{4 and the} like. And, as described later, the substance is a polymer having an amorphous region, and the above-mentioned reaction is caused by a reaction such as a proton exchange reaction with a polymer and an exchange reaction with a terminal group. The change in the sum state acts on the amorphous structure to change the polymer structure. Especially in the polymer having the amorphous region,
The effect is large for polymers having hydrogen bonds such as cellulose and polyamide.

The term "mechanically and electrically relaxed object" as used in the present invention means that when a certain stress or electric force is applied to an object and then removed, the influence of the force on the object over time is reduced. It refers to a substance that is relaxed and refers to a high molecular compound having an amorphous region. Preferably, any compound having a bipolar site, a hydrogen bondable site, or an ionic site may be used. There is no. In addition, the mechanically and electrically relaxed substance system refers to a system in which the polymer group is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent, and a system in which other substances are mixed or dissolved or dispersed therein. . The polymer compound is not limited as long as it is a polymer compound having an amorphous region, but preferably includes cellulose, polyamide (nylon 66, 6, 612, 610, 46, etc.).

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to Examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto because the application technical field of the present invention is extremely wide.

Example 1 This example illustrates a method for preparing three groups of water.

First group water: using a deionized water production machine manufactured by Millipore, with an ion conductivity of 0.35 μs / cm
Was prepared as a sample. The sample, deionized water, was placed in a 500 ml sample tube, and the periphery was covered with aluminum foil. One of the electrodes was insulated, and only the negative electrode was brought into contact with the negative electrode. Water subjected to an electrostatic field treatment under the condition of 100 V / cm for 24 hours.

Second group water: using a deionized water production machine manufactured by Millipore, having an ion conductivity of 0.35 μs / cm.
Was prepared as a sample. Water obtained by subjecting the water sample to an AC voltage of 90 V and an applied frequency of 50 Hz or less, applying a magnetic flux density of 700 gauss and applying a magnetic field of 8 hours.

Third group water: using a deionized water producing machine manufactured by Millipore, having an ion conductivity of 0.35 μs / cm.
Was prepared as a sample. 500 l of the water sample
And subjected to standing far-infrared treatment for 24 hours in a state of being surrounded by a far-infrared treated substance whose wavelength peak measured by a black body radiation method is 10 microns.

A typical heat-stimulated depolarization-temperature curve obtained in the above example is shown in FIG.

Example 2 In this example, a polyamide film having a high carboxyl terminal fraction was treated with an ion-exchanged water in advance by an electrostatic field, and then permeated into water converted into the first group of water of the present invention. It is exemplified that the structure can be converted to a substance having much higher structural stability than the case where ordinary water is used.

Carboxyl terminal fraction (number of carboxyl terminal groups / (number of carboxyl terminal groups + number of amino terminal groups))
A first group of water was absorbed into a 0.36 melt-formed nylon 66 film having a number average molecular weight of 15,000 (thickness: 0.080 µm), left for 24 hours, and then left at -150 ° C to 10 ° C.
FIG. 2A shows a heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature curve in each step of drying of a film obtained by repeating a cycle of drying at 0 ° C. at 7 ° C./min 10 times. On the other hand, FIG. 2B shows the result when the same treatment was performed with ion-exchanged water as a comparative example. In the examples, the rate of change of the peak temperatures of α and β dispersion is smaller than that of the comparative example. In particular, the β dispersion peak temperature hardly changes, and it can be seen that the structural stability is much higher than that of the comparative example. Also,
The films obtained in the examples and comparative examples had a temperature of 45 ° C. and a humidity of 8
After treatment with a weather autometer at 5% for 48 hours,
When the strength retention was examined, the comparative example showed only 9%, but the film of the example showed a high retention of 80% or more.

The conditions of the electrostatic field treatment, the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement conditions, the obtained water parameters, and the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement conditions used at this time are as follows. (1) Electrostatic field treatment conditions Deionized water was placed in a 500 ml sample tube, the periphery was covered with aluminum foil, and the sample was brought into contact with only the negative electrode while one electrode was insulated, and the primary voltage was 90 V. , 4
In A, the nylon 66 film was impregnated with water subjected to an electrostatic field treatment under an electric field gradient of 100 V / cm for 24 hours.

(2) The parameters of the water obtained by the above-mentioned electrostatic field treatment are as described below.

[0033] (parameter of the treated water in _{Example) Tm a = -143.7 ℃ Tm b} = -123.0 ℃ Tm c = -104.5 ℃ Tm e = -36.3 ℃ Im a / Im c = 7.7 (parameters of the ion-exchanged water in Comparative _{example) Tm a = 140.2 ℃ Tm b} = -119.5 ℃ Tm c = -101.5 ℃ Tm e = -34.7 ℃ Im a / Im c = 4.2 (3) Thermally stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement conditions Polarization temperature: T _p = 70 ° C., polarization time: t _p = 2 minutes, electric field strength: V _p = 3000 V / mm, depolarization temperature: T _d = -15

Min, final temperature: Th = 100 ° C. Example 3 In this example, the regenerated cellulose is treated with the first group of water of the present invention shown in Example 2 and the salt aqueous solution treated with the electrostatic field, Compared to the case of treating with normal ion-exchanged water and salt solution not treated with electrostatic field,
Exemplify that the dimensional change due to water intrusion is reduced.

A cellulose / copper ammonia solution of 15 wt.
A film obtained by coagulation and regeneration with an aqueous sulfuric acid solution of 1% was allowed to absorb the water of the first group of the present invention shown in Example 2 and dried at 120 ° C. for 2 hours. After this operation was repeated twice in total, the film thickness was measured by impregnating with ordinary ion-exchanged water, and compared with the film thickness in the initial dry state. The film thickness swelled to 1.46 times by impregnation with ion-exchanged water, but 1.52 times when impregnation and drying were repeated in the same manner using normal ion-exchanged water.
The membranes treated with the first group of water showed less dimensional change due to water penetration.

A 1 mol / l NaCl aqueous solution is treated with an electrostatic field such that water itself belongs to the first group of the present invention, and the aqueous solution is absorbed by a cellulose membrane, and dried and dried in the same manner.
The impregnation was repeated, and the dimensional change due to the infiltration of ion-exchanged water was measured. The dimensional change was 1.32 times, which was higher than the 1.45 times that when treated with the same concentration of NaCl aqueous solution that had not been treated with the electrostatic field. It was small. As described above, according to the water structure control method of the present invention, it is possible to reduce a dimensional change due to water intrusion.

The parameters according to claim 1 of the water obtained by the above-mentioned electrostatic field treatment and the conditions for the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement are as follows.

/ Min, final arrival speed: Th: = 40 ° C. Example 4 In this example, water was added to a methanol / calcium chloride solution of polyamide, and the phases were separated to exchange deionized water when producing particles. Voltage 90V, applied frequency 50
When the water belonging to the second group of the present invention obtained by adding a magnetic flux density of 700 gauss and performing the treatment for 8 hours under Hz is significantly different from the case where the water without the magnetic field treatment is used,
The fact that the particles can have a small structural unit will be exemplified.

Nylon 66 having a carboxyl end group fraction of 0.48 and a number average molecular weight of 15,000 was dissolved at a concentration of 2 wt% in a methanol solution containing 20 wt% of calcium chloride anhydride. To 1 part by weight of this solution, 1 part by weight of water belonging to the second group and, as a comparison, deionized water were added at 25 ° C., respectively, stirred similarly, and SEM observation of precipitated particles was performed. . Figure 3 shows the SEM photograph.
It describes in. As is clear from the photograph, the basic skeleton particle diameter of this example was about 0.06 μm, while that of the comparative example was about 0.3 μm. If the particle size is small, it is expected that the effect of adsorbing other components and the effect of filling other matrices will be large. The parameters of the water obtained by this treatment according to the present invention are as described below. The conditions for the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement are the same as in Example 3.

[0039] (parameter of the treated water in _{Example) Tm a = -143.5 ℃ Tm b} = -123.9 ℃ Tm c = -101.6 ℃ Im a /Imb=1.0 Im a / Im c = 3.3 (parameters of the ion-exchanged water in Comparative _{example) Tm a = -140.0 ℃ Tm b} = -119.0 ℃ Tm c = -101.3 ℃ Im a / Im b = 2.5 Im a / Im _c = 4.0 Example 5 In this example, when dissolving cellulose (purified cotton linter) in a copper ammonia solution, normal 20 wt% ammonia water and the water itself were considered to belong to the first group of the present invention. The results regarding the dissolution rate and the dissolution residue when using water subjected to various electrostatic field treatments are shown.

A 20 wt% aqueous ammonia solution was placed in a 500 ml sample tube, the periphery thereof was covered with aluminum foil, and the sample was brought into contact with only the negative electrode while one electrode was insulated. At 5A, an electric field gradient of 50
Electrostatic field treatment was performed for 24 hours under the condition of 0 V / cm. Part 2
0 wt% ammonia water, purified cotton linter, and basic copper sulfate were mixed at 10 wt%, 7.8 wt% (calculated as ammonia) and 3.7 wt% (calculated as copper), respectively, and stirred for a predetermined time. Further, caustic soda is added to the total weight of 0.1%.
It was added so as to have a concentration of 3 wt% and stirred for 1 hour. The stirring time before the addition of caustic soda is t, and the relationship between t and the dissolved residue is shown in FIG. Here dissolved residue was defined as the ratio _{(KS t / KS t = 0} ) of the filtered constant KS _t filtration constants KS t _{= 0} and t time after stirring the stock stock in the case of t = 0min. The filtration constant is a low pressure filtration equation (1) using a 1000 mesh filter (Chemical Engineering Handbook Revised 5th edition, Chemical Engineering Association, p. 6)
99). Where s is the filtration time, v is the amount of filtration,
vm is a constant.

S / v = (1 / KS _t ) × (v + 2 vm) (1) In the case where normal 20 wt% ammonia water is used for dissolution, it takes about 150 minutes to completely dissolve. However, when ammonia water treated in an electrostatic field was used, the dissolution rate was significantly increased, and the time t required for complete dissolution was only 10 minutes.

Embodiment 6 In this embodiment, the third ion-exchanged water is treated with far infrared rays.
Water adjusted to 9 wt% by dissolving caustic soda in group water,
The solubility of cellulose in an aqueous solution obtained by subjecting ordinary ion-exchanged water adjusted to a caustic soda concentration of 9 wt% to far-infrared rays is exemplified.

Here, the far-infrared treatment is performed by using a polyester cotton containing far-infrared radiating particles obtained by carbonizing seaweed to cover an airtightly sealed Erlenmeyer flask containing water and an aqueous solution of caustic soda. Below 2
The treatment was performed by leaving still for 4 hours.

Water (A) prepared by dissolving caustic soda in normal ion-exchanged water to obtain 10 g of cellulose having a degree of polymerization of 310 and obtained by steaming wood pulp (A), and ordinary ion-exchanged water were subjected to far infrared treatment. Water (B) adjusted to 9 wt% by dissolving caustic soda in water, and caustic soda concentration 9
Normal ion-exchanged water adjusted to wt% was dissolved under stirring at 5 ° C. in 190 g of each of the water (C) treated with far infrared rays. The solution 3 hours after the dissolution was centrifuged (1.0 ×
(10 ⁴ rpm × 60 minutes) to separate into a uniform solution phase and a gel phase containing undissolved matter, and the undissolved cellulose fraction was calculated from the weight of cellulose contained in the gel phase. As a result, the undissolved cellulose fractions of (A), (B) and (C) were 11%, 4% and 3%, respectively. As described above, when the water of the present invention is used, the undissolved residue is reduced, and the dissolving power for cellulose is improved. The far-infrared treated water used in the present invention is as follows, and the heat-stimulated depolarization current-temperature measurement conditions are the same as in Example 3.

Water adjusted to wt.% and normal water adjusted to caustic soda concentration of 9 wt% are put into a sample tube and covered with aluminum foil so that the water itself belongs to the first group of the present invention. In the insulated state, only the electrode on the negative side was brought into contact with the electrode, and subjected to an electrostatic field treatment at a primary voltage of 100 V and 0.5 A for an electric field gradient of 500 V / cm for 24 hours. FIG. 5 shows a TSC curve of each treated cellulose fiber obtained by treating each aqueous solution with the cellulose fiber in a relaxed state at 20 ° C. for 30 seconds, washing with water and drying.

(1) A cellulose fiber using a 9 wt% aqueous solution of caustic soda which has been subjected to the above-mentioned electrostatic field treatment such that water itself belongs to the first group of the present invention has a peak (TSCα) near 80 ° C. in the TSC curve on the low temperature side. And the peak intensity also decreases. On the other hand, in the case of cellulose fibers using caustic soda water adjusted to a concentration of 9 wt% in ordinary ion-exchanged water, the peak temperature does not change and only the peak intensity increases.

(2) The results of the same operation on cellulose fibers are shown in the case where sulfuric acid is dissolved in ordinary ion-exchanged water at a concentration of 58 wt% and in the case where it is subjected to an electrostatic field treatment. Regardless of the presence or absence of electric field static treatment,
Although the intensity shifts to low temperature and the intensity also decreases, the peak intensity of the sample subjected to the electrostatic field treatment is reduced to about 比 べ compared with the sample not subjected to the electrostatic field treatment, and the low-temperature shift width is increased. You can make a change.

As described above, it is shown that the structure can be sufficiently controlled even when the method of the present invention is applied to an aqueous liquid system having both an acid and an alkali.

Example 8 In this example, water contained in a styrene / butadiene latex usually prepared with water was prepared by using an electrostatic field treatment condition such that the water itself became the first group water of the present invention. It illustrates that the stability over time of latex and the coating property are improved.

V, 4 A, and subjected to an electrostatic field treatment under an electric field gradient of 100 V / cm for 24 hours. Thereafter, 10 Pa, 1 Hz, 25 ° C.
The dynamic viscoelasticity was measured at. By this electrostatic field treatment, the storage elastic modulus decreases from 1022 in normal water to 587 Pa, and the loss elastic modulus increases from 71 to 141 Pa. As described above, when the method of the present invention is applied, the latex can be modified so as to improve the coatability.

Example 9 In this example, a coating liquid prepared by standard blending with a styrene-butadiene latex usually prepared with water was used in such a manner that the water contained therein became the first group water of the present invention. Stability of the coating liquid over time by preparing using electric field treatment conditions,
An example in which the coatability is improved will be described.

100 g of a coating solution having a solid content of 64 wt% adjusted by a general compounding composition was put into a sample tube, the periphery was covered with aluminum foil, and the sample was insulated with one electrode insulated.
Contact only the negative side electrode, primary side voltage 90V,
At 4 A, an electrostatic field treatment was performed for 24 hours under an electric field gradient of 100 V / cm. After this coating solution was stirred at 1500 rpm for 30 minutes, the change over time in dynamic viscoelasticity was measured at 1 pa, 1 Hz, and 25 ° C. Table 1 shows the measurement results of the storage elastic modulus after 10 ² and 10 ³ seconds. In addition, as a comparative example, a coating solution prepared in the same manner as above was allowed to stand for 42 hours without applying the above-mentioned electrostatic field treatment, and then stirred at 1500 rpm for 30 minutes. The change with time of the viscoelasticity was measured. Table 1 shows the measurement results of the storage elastic modulus after 10 ² and 10 ³ seconds. That is, the stability over time of the coating liquid can be improved by preparing the water contained therein under the electrostatic field treatment conditions so as to become the first group water of the present invention.
