Since large particles having a particle size of several tens of μm are obtained, there is a problem that shrinkage after compression and sintering is small, the apparent density after sintering does not increase, and affects subsequent steps.

In addition, when the bulk is large, there is a limit in the capacity of the mold to be formed during the compression forming, and there is a problem that it is difficult to obtain a product having a large weight. Further, there is a problem that the gas is adsorbed much due to the fine powder, and the gas is not released at the time of compression but swells in a subsequent step.

事を特徴とする粉末冶金用銀粉末の製造方法である。本
発明の銀粉製造方法においては、添加するホルマリン溶
液量を銀量に対して1.1〜 1.5当量、還元後のpHを 0.
1〜6にすることが好ましい。In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for powder metallurgy by adding a caustic alkali solution to a silver nitrate solution to form silver oxide, and then adding a formalin solution to reduce silver oxide. In a method for producing silver powder, a method for producing a silver powder for powder metallurgy is characterized in that a reduction temperature at the time of reducing silver oxide is reduced to 60 ° C. or less to cause a reaction. In the method for producing silver powder of the present invention, the amount of formalin solution to be added is 1.1 to 1.5 equivalents to the amount of silver, and the pH after reduction is 0.1.
It is preferred to be 1-6.
【0007】本発明では、還元温度を60℃以下で反応さ
せる必要がある。これは還元剤であるホルマリンを有効
に利用するためと、反応生成物質である蟻酸を粒径制御
に用いる目的のためである。反応温度が60℃以上の場
合、ホルマリンが気化し、投入量に対して有効に作用せ
ず、また、蟻酸による粒径制御に関しては蟻酸の活性が
高いため60℃以上では反応が急激に進み過ぎて、粒径制
御が困難となるからである。In the present invention, the reaction needs to be performed at a reduction temperature of 60 ° C. or less. This is for the purpose of effectively utilizing formalin as a reducing agent and for the purpose of using formic acid as a reaction product for controlling the particle size. When the reaction temperature is higher than 60 ° C, formalin vaporizes and does not act effectively on the input amount. In addition, regarding the particle size control by formic acid, the reaction proceeds too rapidly at 60 ° C or higher due to the high activity of formic acid. This makes it difficult to control the particle size.
【0008】さらに、添加するホルマリン溶液量を銀量
に対して 1.1当量以上とするのは、酸化銀を全量還元す
るために化学量論以上投入する必要があるからであり、
1.5未満にするのは過剰のホルマリンは必要とされない
ばかりでなく、反対に蟻酸生成量が多くなるために粒度
制御が困難となるという問題が生じるからである。Further, the amount of the formalin solution to be added is set to 1.1 equivalent or more with respect to the amount of silver because it is necessary to add more than the stoichiometric amount in order to reduce the total amount of silver oxide.
The reason for setting the ratio to less than 1.5 is that not only is excess formalin not required, but also, on the other hand, there arises a problem that the particle size control becomes difficult due to an increase in the amount of formic acid produced.
【0009】還元後のpHを 0.1〜6にする目的は、蟻
酸による粒度制御を効果的に行うためであり、上記酸性

推進力として銀表面からの溶解還元が進むものと推察さ
れる。The purpose of adjusting the pH after reduction to 0.1 to 6 is to effectively control the particle size with formic acid, and the dissolution and reduction reaction of silver with formic acid proceeds only in the acidic region. Although the clear reaction mechanism is unknown, it is presumed that a chemical battery is formed in a system in the presence of formic acid in an acid solution, and the generation and generation of the electromotive force drives the dissolution and reduction from the silver surface.

る。As a result of these reactions, the dissolution reaction proceeds as finer particles become, and those particles disappear or decrease, and silver crystal particles with further advanced crystal growth are generated. In the silver powder according to the present invention, the fine powder is not dissolved, while the powder that grows nuclei is produced, which is suitable for powder metallurgy in which large and small powders are mixed. Further, fine powder having a size of 0.3 μm or less is eliminated, which makes it easy to handle in handling.

To the obtained silver nitrate solution, a solution in which caustic alkali such as caustic soda and potassium hydroxide is dissolved in pure water is added to generate silver oxide, and then a formalin solution is added while cooling to 60 ° C or less, and the solution after the reduction reaction is added. By adjusting the amount of caustic alkali and formalin so that the pH of the solution becomes 0.1 to 6, a silver powder for powder metallurgy can be obtained.
