바이러스 제거기능을 갖는 공기조화장치용 열교환기 및 그 제조방법{Heat exchanger for air conditioner having virus removal function and manufacturing method thereof}Heat exchanger for air conditioner having virus removal function and manufacturing method thereof

본 발명은 공기조화장치용 열교환기에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 공기조화장치용 열교환기에 가시광 응답성 광촉매를 코팅함으로써 바이러스 제거기능을 갖게 한 공기조화장치용 열교환기 및 그 제조방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a heat exchanger for an air conditioner, and more particularly, to a heat exchanger for an air conditioner that has a virus removal function by coating the heat exchanger for an air conditioner with a photocatalyst responsive to visible light, and a method for manufacturing the same.

일반적으로 공기조화장치에는 플라즈마 살균장치나 오존 살균장치를 설치하여 오존을 발생시킴으로써 세균이나 바이러스를 제거하고 있다.In general, a plasma sterilizer or an ozone sterilizer is installed in an air conditioner to generate ozone to remove bacteria or viruses.

그런데 이러한 플라즈마 살균장치나 오존 살균장치에서 발생하는 오존은 사람에게 호흡기 질환 등을 유발한다고 알려져 안전성에 대한 논란이 계속되고 있다.However, it is known that ozone generated from these plasma sterilizers or ozone sterilizers causes respiratory diseases in humans, and controversy over safety continues.

한편, 공기조화장치에 적용된 세균 및 바이러스 제거 기술의 다른 예로서 광촉매를 이용한 기술이 개시되어 있다.Meanwhile, as another example of a technology for removing bacteria and viruses applied to an air conditioner, a technology using a photocatalyst is disclosed.

그런데 상기 광촉매를 이용한 방식의 경우 광촉매가 별도의 필터 형태로 제작되어 공기조화장치에 장착되는데 이때 필터 형태로 된 광촉매를 장착하기 위한 별도의 지지체 및 광촉매를 활성화하기 위한 광원 등이 추가로 구비되어야 하는 문제가 있다.However, in the case of the method using the photocatalyst, the photocatalyst is manufactured in the form of a separate filter and installed in the air conditioner. At this time, a separate support for mounting the photocatalyst in the form of a filter and a light source for activating the photocatalyst must be additionally provided there is a problem.

아울러, 종래에는 광촉매를 활성화하기 위한 광원으로써 자외선램프(ultraviolet rays lamp)를 이용하였는데, 자외선은 사람에게 장시간 노출되면 피부질환을 일으키는 등의 문제가 있다.In addition, conventionally, an ultraviolet lamp (ultraviolet rays lamp) is used as a light source for activating the photocatalyst, but there is a problem in that ultraviolet rays cause skin diseases when exposed to a person for a long time.

This is the front view.

도 1 및 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명에 의한 바이러스 제거기능을 갖는 공기조화장치용 열교환기(이하, '열교환기'라고 약칭함)는 상호 이격되게 배열된 다수의 열교환핀(110)과, 상기 열교환핀(110)을 관통하도록 설치된 열교환튜브(120)를 포함하는 공기조화장치용 열교환기(100)에 있어서, 상기 열교환핀(110)에는 가시광 응답형 광촉매(130)가 코팅된 것을 특징으로 한다.1 and 2, the heat exchanger for an air conditioner having a virus removal function according to the present invention (hereinafter abbreviated as 'heat exchanger') has a plurality of heat exchange fins 110 arranged to be spaced apart from each other. and, in the heat exchanger 100 for an air conditioner including a heat exchange tube 120 installed to pass through the heat exchange fin 110, the heat exchange fin 110 is coated with a visible light responsive photocatalyst 130 characterized.

여기서 상기 광촉매(130)는 산화티타늄 50 내지 95중량%; 및 산화텅스텐 또는 구리텅스텐산화물 5 내지 50 중량%;를 포함하는 혼합물로 이루어진다.Wherein the photocatalyst 130 is titanium oxide 50 to 95% by weight; and 5 to 50 wt% of tungsten oxide or copper tungsten oxide.

필요에 따라 상기 혼합물에는 조촉매로서 백금이 첨가될 수 있다. 이때 상기 광촉매(130)는 산화티타늄 50 내지 95중량%; 산화텅스텐 또는 구리텅스텐산화물 5 내지 50 중량%; 및 백금 0.001 내지 0.1중량%;를 포함하는 혼합물로 이루어질 수 있다.If necessary, platinum may be added to the mixture as a co-catalyst. At this time, the photocatalyst 130 is titanium oxide 50 to 95% by weight; 5 to 50% by weight of tungsten oxide or copper tungsten oxide; and 0.001 to 0.1 wt% of platinum; may be made of a mixture comprising.

상기와 같이 본 발명의 열교환기(100)에서 상기 광촉매(130)는 산화티타늄과 산화텅스텐을 주재료로 사용한다. 상기 산화티타늄은 자외선 영역에서 광촉매로써 효과가 우수한 것으로 확인되었으나, 가시광 영역에서는 광촉매 효과가 미미하다는 단점이 있다. 즉, 태양광에서 자외광은 약 4%에 지나지 않기 때문에 자외광이 거의 없는 실내에서는 광촉매로써의 효율이 크게 떨어진다. 반면에 산화티타늄은 가시광 영역에서 광촉매 효과가 있으나, 산화텅스텐을 단독으로 사용하는 경우 특정 파장에서만 효과가 있고 전반적으로 가시광에서 광촉매 효과가 적은 것으로 알려졌다.As described above, in the heat exchanger 100 of the present invention, the photocatalyst 130 uses titanium oxide and tungsten oxide as main materials. The titanium oxide was confirmed to have an excellent effect as a photocatalyst in the ultraviolet region, but has a disadvantage in that the photocatalytic effect is insignificant in the visible region. That is, since ultraviolet light is only about 4% in sunlight, the efficiency as a photocatalyst is greatly reduced in an indoor environment where there is little ultraviolet light. On the other hand, titanium oxide has a photocatalytic effect in the visible region, but it is known that when tungsten oxide is used alone, it is effective only at a specific wavelength and generally has little photocatalytic effect in visible light.

본 발명에서는 산화티타늄과 산화텅스텐을 일정 비율로 혼합하여 가시광 응답형 광촉매(130)를 제작함으로써 산화티타늄과 산화텅스텐을 각각 단독으로 사용하는 경우보다 가시광 영역에서의 광촉매 효과가 우수하다.In the present invention, by mixing titanium oxide and tungsten oxide in a certain ratio to prepare the visible light responsive photocatalyst 130, the photocatalytic effect in the visible light region is superior to that when titanium oxide and tungsten oxide are used alone.

한편, 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이 본 발명의 열교환기(100)에는 상기 열교환핀(110)에 코팅된 광촉매(130)를 활성화하기 위한 광원(140)이 설치되고, 상기 광촉매(130)가 코팅된 열교환핀(110)의 사이사이에는 상기 광원(140)에서 조사된 빛을 열교환핀(110)으로 반사하는 반사판(150)이 설치될 수 있다.Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 2 , a light source 140 for activating the photocatalyst 130 coated on the heat exchange fin 110 is installed in the heat exchanger 100 of the present invention, and the photocatalyst 130 is coated A reflector 150 for reflecting the light irradiated from the light source 140 to the heat exchange fin 110 may be installed between the heat exchange fins 110 .

여기서 상기 광원(140)은 400 내지 800㎚ 파장의 백색광을 방사하는 LED램프가 사용된다. 상기 광원(140)은 상기 열교환기(100)의 상부 및 하부 각각에 상기 열교환핀(110)과 반사판(150)이 배열된 방향을 따라 다수가 배열될 수 있다. 이에 의하면, 태양광으로 인한 상기 광촉매(130)의 활성도가 미미할 경우 상기 광원(140)을 이용하여 광촉매(130)의 활성도를 높일 수 있다.Here, as the light source 140, an LED lamp emitting white light having a wavelength of 400 to 800 nm is used. A plurality of the light sources 140 may be arranged along the direction in which the heat exchange fins 110 and the reflectors 150 are arranged on the upper and lower portions of the heat exchanger 100 , respectively. Accordingly, when the activity of the photocatalyst 130 due to sunlight is insignificant, the activity of the photocatalyst 130 can be increased by using the light source 140 .

상기 반사판(150)은 양측 표면이 빛을 반사할 수 있게 형성되어 반사판(150)과 인접하게 배치된 두 열교환핀(110)에 상기 광원(140)에서 조사된 빛을 반사할 수 있게 구성된다. 이에 의하면, 상기 열교환핀(110)에 코팅된 광촉매(130)에 가해지는 광량이 증가시킬 수 있다.The reflective plate 150 is configured to reflect the light emitted from the light source 140 to the two heat exchange fins 110 disposed adjacent to the reflective plate 150 as both surfaces of the reflective plate 150 are formed to reflect light. Accordingly, the amount of light applied to the photocatalyst 130 coated on the heat exchange fin 110 can be increased.

상기 반사판(150)은 상기 열교환핀(110)과 동일한 형상의 금속판으로 이루어져 열교환핀으로써의 기능도 수행할 수 있게 구성된다.The reflection plate 150 is made of a metal plate having the same shape as the heat exchange fin 110 and is configured to function as a heat exchange fin.

이하, 도 3을 더 참조하여 본 발명의 실시예에 의한 바이러스 제거기능을 갖는 공기조화장치용 열교환기의 제조방법을 설명한다.Hereinafter, a method of manufacturing a heat exchanger for an air conditioner having a virus removal function according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with further reference to FIG. 3 .

도 3은 본 발명의 실시예에 의한 바이러스 제거기능을 갖는 공기조화장치용 열교환기 제조방법의 흐름도이다.3 is a flowchart of a method for manufacturing a heat exchanger for an air conditioner having a virus removal function according to an embodiment of the present invention.

도 3에 도시된 바와 같이 본 발명의 실시예에 의한 열교환기의 제조방법은, 광촉매 소재 제작 단계(S10), 광촉매 소재 코팅 단계(S20) 및 조립 단계(S30)를 포함하여 이루어진다.As shown in FIG. 3 , the method of manufacturing a heat exchanger according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a photocatalyst material manufacturing step (S10), a photocatalyst material coating step (S20) and an assembling step (S30).

상기 광촉매 소재 제작 단계(S10)는 가시광 응답성 광촉매 소재를 제작하기 위한 단계로서, 산화티타늄 재료와 산화텅스텐 재료를 혼합하는 재료 혼합 단계(S11); 및 상기 산화티타늄 재료와 산화텅스텐 재료의 혼합물을 400 내지 600℃로 열처리하는 열처리 단계(S12);를 포함하여 이루어진다.The photocatalyst material manufacturing step (S10) is a step for manufacturing a visible light responsive photocatalyst material, a material mixing step (S11) of mixing a titanium oxide material and a tungsten oxide material; and a heat treatment step (S12) of heat-treating the mixture of the titanium oxide material and the tungsten oxide material at 400 to 600°C.

상기 재료 혼합 단계(S11)에서 상기 산화티타늄 재료는 티타늄금속염액을 가수분해한 수산화티탄 겔이나, 수산화티탄 겔을 열처리하여 결정화된 산화티타늄을 사용한다. 그리고 상기 산화텅스텐 재료는 초경슬러지를 산화시킨 산화텅스텐에 수산화나트륨 수용액을 넣고 가열하여 얻은 나트륨텅스테이트를 양이온교환수지를 통과시켜 만들어 산화텅스텐 콜로이드를 사용한다.In the material mixing step (S11), the titanium oxide material is a titanium hydroxide gel obtained by hydrolyzing a titanium metal salt solution, or a titanium oxide crystallized by heat-treating the titanium hydroxide gel. In addition, the tungsten oxide material uses a tungsten oxide colloid by passing sodium tungstate obtained by heating an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide into tungsten oxide oxidized from cemented carbide sludge through a cation exchange resin.

여기서 콜로이드 서스펜션(colloidal suspension) 또는 콜로이드는, 용매와 용질이 완전히 혼합되어 단일상을 이루는 용액과 달리, 크기가 1 내지 1000nm이고 불용성인 물질이 분산된 상태로 다른 물질과 섞여 있는 혼합물이다. 따라서 산화텅스텐 콜로이드는 산화텅스텐 미립자가 분사된 상태로 다른 물질과 섞여 있는 것이다. 이러한 산화텅스텐 콜로이드는 수산화티탄 겔이나 산화티타늄과 혼합될 때 장시간의 기계적 혼합이 요구되지 않을 뿐만 아니라 산화티타늄과의 결합이 쉽게 이루어진다.Here, a colloidal suspension or colloid is a mixture in which a solvent and a solute are completely mixed to form a single phase, and an insoluble substance is mixed with other substances in a dispersed state with a size of 1 to 1000 nm, unlike a solution. Therefore, the tungsten oxide colloid is mixed with other materials in a state in which tungsten oxide particles are sprayed. When these tungsten oxide colloids are mixed with titanium hydroxide gel or titanium oxide, mechanical mixing for a long time is not required, and bonding with titanium oxide is easily achieved.

구체적으로, 산화티타늄(TiO2)의 재료는 티타늄금속염액을 용매로 분산시킨 후 열가수분해 공정에 따라 가수분해시킨다. 이때 열가수분해의 온도는 60 내지 100℃이다. 이와 같이 열가수분해 하면 비정질의 수산화티탄 겔이 얻어진다. 수산화티탄의 정량적인 화학식은 Ti(OH)4이지만 보통 비정질 상태에서는 Ti-OH 결합과 Ti-O 결합이 혼재하므로 정량화학식으로 표기하지는 않는다.Specifically, the titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) material is hydrolyzed according to the thermal hydrolysis process after dispersing the titanium metal salt solution in the solvent. At this time, the temperature of the thermal hydrolysis is 60 to 100 ℃. Upon thermal hydrolysis in this way, an amorphous titanium hydroxide gel is obtained. Although the quantitative chemical formula of titanium hydroxide is Ti(OH) 4 , it is not usually expressed as a quantitative chemical formula because Ti-OH bonds and Ti-O bonds are mixed in an amorphous state.

그리고 수산화티탄 겔을 물 또는 알콜로 세정한 후 분리 여과하여 광촉매 재료로 사용하거나 세정한 수산화티탄 겔을 다시 물에 재산분시킨 후 압력용기에 넣고 열처리 예를 들어, 100 내지 300℃에서 100시간 열처리하여, 결정화된 산화티타늄을 제조하여 광촉매 재료로 사용할 수 있다.Then, the titanium hydroxide gel is washed with water or alcohol, separated and filtered to be used as a photocatalyst material, or the washed titanium hydroxide gel is re-dispersed in water and then placed in a pressure vessel for heat treatment, for example, heat treatment at 100 to 300°C for 100 hours Thus, crystallized titanium oxide can be prepared and used as a photocatalyst material.

이어 산화텅스텐(WO3)의 재료는 국내에서 구입하기 어렵고 산화텅스텐 분말을 콜로이드(colloidal) 상태로 제조하는 것은 매우 어렵기 때문에 초경슬러지로부터 산화텅스텐 콜로이드를 제조하여 사용한다.Next, tungsten oxide (WO3) material is difficult to purchase in Korea and it is very difficult to produce tungsten oxide powder in a colloidal state.

즉, 초경슬러지로부터 산화텅스텐 콜로이드 상태로 제조하기 위해서는, 먼저 초경슬러지에서 산화텅스텐과 나머지 불순물을 분리하는 공정이 필요한데, 이를 위해서 초경슬러지를 600 내지 800℃의 높은 온도에서 산화시켜 불순물을 함유한 산화텅스텐 슬러지를 제조한다. 그리고 제조된 불순물 함유 산화텅스텐을 수산화나트륨 수용액을 100℃로 가열한 용액에 넣고 가열하면서 교반하여 나트륨텅스테이트가 되도록 하여 불순물과 분리하는 공정을 수행한다.That is, in order to produce tungsten oxide colloidal from cemented carbide sludge, a process of separating tungsten oxide and remaining impurities from cemented carbide sludge is first required. Tungsten sludge is produced. Then, the prepared impurity-containing tungsten oxide is put in a solution of sodium hydroxide solution heated to 100° C. and stirred while heating to form sodium tungstate, thereby performing a process of separating it from impurities.

이어 제조된 나트륨텅스테이트(sodium tungstat; 텅스텐산나트륨, 나트륨텅스텐산염)는 양이온교환수지를 통과시켜 산화텅스텐 콜로이드로 제조한다. 양이온교환수지는 수용액 속의 양이온과 자신의 양이온을 교환하는 합성수지로서, 양이온교화수지에 나트륨텅스테이트를 통과시키면 양이온이 교환되어 산화텅스텐 콜로이드로 된다.Then, the prepared sodium tungstat (sodium tungstate, sodium tungstate) is passed through a cation exchange resin to prepare a tungsten oxide colloid. A cation exchange resin is a synthetic resin that exchanges its own cations with cations in an aqueous solution. When sodium tungstate is passed through the cation exchange resin, the cations are exchanged to form tungsten oxide colloids.

한편, 산화텅스텐(WO3)의 재료는 구리 등의 제2 원소가 첨가될 수 있다. 예를 들어 구리는 콜로이드 상태의 산화텅스텐에 무수상태의 염화구리(CuCl2)를 반응시켜 제조한다. 즉, 구리의 첨가는 산화텅스텐 콜로이드와의 반응으로 제조한다.Meanwhile, a second element such as copper may be added to the material of tungsten oxide (WO3). For example, copper is prepared by reacting anhydrous copper chloride (CuCl 2 ) with colloidal tungsten oxide. That is, the addition of copper is prepared by reaction with a colloid of tungsten oxide.

이와 같은 방법으로 제조된 이산화티탄 겔과 산화텅스텐 콜로이드(또는 제2 원소가 첨가된 산화텅스텐 콜로이드)를 적정 비율로 혼합하여 광촉매 재료로 사용한다.The titanium dioxide gel prepared in this way and the tungsten oxide colloid (or the tungsten oxide colloid to which the second element is added) are mixed in an appropriate ratio and used as a photocatalyst material.

바람직하게, 산화티타늄과 산화텅스텐의 혼합비율은 산화티타늄 50 내지 95 중량%과 산화텅스텐(또는 구리텅스텐산화물) 5 내지 50 중량%로 혼합한다.Preferably, the mixing ratio of titanium oxide and tungsten oxide is 50 to 95 wt% of titanium oxide and 5 to 50 wt% of tungsten oxide (or copper tungsten oxide).

또한, 조촉매로서 백금을 더 첨가할 수 있다. 백금(Pt)은 산화티타늄 졸이나 산화텅스텐 콜로이드 중 어느 쪽에 첨가하여도 좋으나, 반드시 티타늄산화물과 산화텅스텐 콜로이드를 합성하기 이전에 첨가해야 한다. 이때 백금은 전체 중량에 대해 0.001 내지 0.1중량%가 되도록 첨가한다.In addition, platinum may be further added as a co-catalyst. Platinum (Pt) may be added to either the titanium oxide sol or the tungsten oxide colloid, but must be added before synthesizing the titanium oxide and the tungsten oxide colloid. At this time, platinum is added so as to be 0.001 to 0.1% by weight based on the total weight.

이와 같이 제조된 백금 및 산화텅스텐(또는 구리텅스텐산화물) 첨가 티타늄산화물을 상기 열처리 단계(S12)를 통해 열처리하여 가시광 응답형 광촉매 소재를 제조한다. 이때, 상기 열처리 단계(S12)에서는 백금 및 산화텅스텐(또는 구리텅스텐산화물) 첨가 티타늄산화물을 티타늄산화물의 조직이 아나타제(이산화티타늄)의 비율이 70% 이상이 되도록 400 내지 600℃의 온도 범위에서 약 2시간 열처리하여 가시광 응답형 광촉매 소재로 제조한다.Platinum and tungsten oxide (or copper tungsten oxide)-added titanium oxide prepared in this way is heat-treated through the heat treatment step (S12) to prepare a visible light responsive photocatalyst material. At this time, in the heat treatment step (S12), platinum and tungsten oxide (or copper tungsten oxide) are added titanium oxide in a temperature range of 400 to 600° C. so that the ratio of anatase (titanium dioxide) in the structure of the titanium oxide is 70% or more. It is heat treated for 2 hours to make a visible light responsive photocatalyst material.

상기 광촉매 소재 코팅 단계(S20)는, 상기 열교환핀(110)에 무기질 프라이머를 도포하는 프라이머 도포 단계(S21); 상기 광촉매 소재에 무기질 바인더를 혼합하여 졸(sol) 상태의 광촉매 소재를 제작하는 광촉매 졸 제작 단계(S22); 및 상기 광촉매 졸을 상기 열교환핀(110)에 코팅하는 광촉매 졸 코팅 단계(S23);를 포함하여 이루어진다.The photocatalytic material coating step (S20) includes a primer application step (S21) of applying an inorganic primer to the heat exchange fin 110; A photocatalyst sol production step (S22) of mixing the photocatalyst material with an inorganic binder to produce a photocatalyst material in a sol state; and a photocatalytic sol coating step (S23) of coating the photocatalytic sol on the heat exchange fin 110.

상기 프라이머 도포 단계(S21)에서 사용되는 프라이머는, 유기물 프라이머가 사용될 경우 광촉매(130)의 활성에 의해 유기물이 분해될 수 있으므로 무기물 프라이머가 사용된다. 필요에 따라 상기 프라이머 도포 단계(S21)가 실시되기 전에, 상기 열교환핀(110)을 세척 및 건조하는 단계가 실시될 수 있다. 그리고 상기 프라이머 도포 단계(S21) 이후에는 도포된 프라이머를 건조하는 단계가 실시될 수 있다.As the primer used in the primer application step (S21), when an organic primer is used, the organic material may be decomposed by the activity of the photocatalyst 130, and thus an inorganic primer is used. If necessary, before the primer application step (S21) is performed, the steps of washing and drying the heat exchange fins 110 may be performed. And drying the applied primer may be performed after the primer application step (S21).

상기 광촉매 졸 제작 단계(S22)에서는 상기 광촉매 소재 제작 단계(S10)에서 제작된 광촉매 소재를 무기질 바인더와 혼합하여 졸 상태로 만들게 된다. 이때 상기 바인더는 상기 프라이머와 마찬가지로 광촉매(130)의 활성에 의해 분해되지 않도록 무기질 바인더가 사용된다. 구체적으로 상기 무기질 바인더는 규산나트륨 20 내지 30중량%, 규산칼륨 5 내지 15중량%, 물 50 내지 70중량% 및 분산제 3 내지 7중량%를 250 내지 350℃의 온도에서 중합반응시켜 제작된다. 이렇게 제작된 무기질 바인더는 광촉매 소재를 알루미늄으로 된 열교환핀(110)에 박리현상 없이 코팅할 수 있게 한다.In the photocatalytic sol manufacturing step (S22), the photocatalyst material manufactured in the photocatalytic material manufacturing step (S10) is mixed with an inorganic binder to form a sol state. In this case, the inorganic binder is used so that the binder is not decomposed by the activity of the photocatalyst 130 like the primer. Specifically, the inorganic binder is prepared by polymerizing 20 to 30% by weight of sodium silicate, 5 to 15% by weight of potassium silicate, 50 to 70% by weight of water, and 3 to 7% by weight of a dispersant at a temperature of 250 to 350°C. The inorganic binder prepared in this way enables the photocatalytic material to be coated on the heat exchange fin 110 made of aluminum without peeling.

상기 광촉매 졸 코팅 단계(S23)는 고속 및 대량 생산에 적합한 그라비어 코팅 방식에 의해 실시될 수 있다. 상기 광촉매 졸 코팅 단계(S23) 이후에는 상기 열교환핀(110)에 코팅된 광촉매(130)를 건조 및 경화하는 단계가 실시될 수있다.The photocatalytic sol coating step (S23) may be performed by a gravure coating method suitable for high-speed and mass production. After the photocatalytic sol coating step (S23), drying and curing the photocatalyst 130 coated on the heat exchange fin 110 may be performed.
