PURPOSE:To easily produce In metal fine powder on industrial scale by dissolving In salt in solvent selected from the specific group and reducing this sodium borohydride. CONSTITUTION:The indium salt selected from indium chloride, indium nitrate and indium sulfate is dissolved to the solvent having components of one kind or more selected from group of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1- butanol and 2-butanol. The sodium borohydride is added to this and reduced to generate the indium metal fine powder. Decantation operation by the methanol is repeated on this fine powder and after that, ultrasonic cleaning, etc., is executed. By this method, In metal fine powder is effectively obtd.

In the conventional method of rapidly cooling indium metal vapor, the melting point of indium metal is 156.6°C, which is lower than that of ordinary metals, so the indium metal fine powder generated by rapid cooling easily fuses with each other, resulting in fine diameter particles. There are drawbacks that make it difficult to manufacture. Furthermore, the conventional method of reducing an aqueous solution of an indium metal salt has the disadvantage that the generated indium metal tends to aggregate and become spongy, and is difficult to turn into fine powder. It is difficult to obtain indium metal powder with a particle diameter of 50 pm or less using the above conventional methods, and these drawbacks have delayed the commercialization of micro-diameter indium metal fine powder, which has not been supplied on an industrial scale like iron powder or copper powder. Things were delayed a lot.

The present invention provides indium chloride, indium nitrate, and sulfuric acid for a solvent containing one or more selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and 2-butanol. This is a method for producing indium metal fine powder, which is characterized by dissolving an indium salt selected from the group consisting of indium and reducing it with sodium boron hydride to produce indium metal fine powder.

When reducing a solution in which an indium salt is dissolved with sodium borohydride, sodium borohydride is added to the solution. Since reduction with sodium borohydride is accompanied by heat of reaction, rapid addition tends to rapidly raise the temperature of the solution and cause a boiling phenomenon, and the resulting indium metal may form a gel-like mass. It is desirable to avoid the boiling phenomenon by adjusting the addition rate of sodium borohydride, washing the solution, etc. When cooling indium metal fine powder, filtration is not preferable because the metal fine powder tends to clog the filter paper, so cleaning is performed by decantation.

In this case, since indium metal is easily oxidized when cleaning with water, methanol is used. Since the sodium chloride adhering to the indium metal fine powder may not be completely removed by cleaning by decantation, it is preferable to wash the indium metal fine powder while dispersing it in methanol using an ultrasonic cleaner. It was confirmed by X-ray diffraction that sodium chloride as an impurity was completely removed from the indium metal fine powder obtained in this way. This was confirmed using an electron microscope.
