- a catalyst having the same performance for example, the yield of the target product
- the manufacturing method of the present embodiment even with continuous firing, it is possible to obtain a product with performance similar to that of batch firing.
- the factors are not limited to the above.
- the catalyst when the catalyst contains Mo, Sb or the like, a low melting point compound is likely to be generated during the firing. Since particles having a particle size of 25 ⁇ m or less have a larger surface ratio than particles having a particle size of more than 25 ⁇ m, it is considered that fixation is more likely to occur. If the amount of fixing becomes too large, problems such as inability to obtain a sufficient firing temperature for the catalyst layer and inability to secure the production amount occur. Therefore, it is preferable to reduce the proportion of particles having a particle size of 25 ⁇ m or less before firing.
- the average particle size of the dry powder is more preferably 35 to 75 ⁇ m, still more preferably 40 to 65 ⁇ m, and particularly preferably 45 to 60 ⁇ m.
- the composite oxide catalyst is used for a fluidized bed type catalytic reaction, if the average particle size is less than 35 ⁇ m, the fluidity is deteriorated and the yield of the target product is lowered, or it is easily scattered from the fluidized bed reactor. There is a risk that the loss of the catalyst amount becomes large.
- the average particle diameter exceeds 75 ⁇ m, the fluidity is deteriorated, and the contact efficiency with the reaction gas is deteriorated, so that the yield of the target product may be lowered.
- the reduction rate of the pre-stage calcined product can be adjusted to a preferable range in the firing step.
- the present inventors consider this mechanism as follows.
- the dry powder usually contains an ammonium root, an organic acid, and an inorganic acid.
- the catalyst constituent elements When firing with an inert gas flowing, the catalyst constituent elements are reduced when they are evaporated, decomposed, or the like.
- the ammonium root evaporates to ammonia gas, and the pre-stage calcined particles are reduced from the gas phase.
- the reduction rate of the pre-stage calcined product varies depending on the firing time and the calcining temperature in the pre-stage firing described below.
- the firing time is long or when the firing temperature is high, the reduction easily proceeds and the reduction rate becomes high.
- the average particle diameter is typically less than 35 ⁇ m, or when the particle content of particle diameters of 25 ⁇ m or less exceeds 20% by mass, entrained with an inert gas or calcined
- a tube there are many small particles that move up with the rotation of the firing tube and go back through the firing tube. As a result, there are particles that stay in the firing tube for longer than the desired time, making it difficult to bring the reduction rate into a preferred range.
- the small particles have many surfaces that come into contact with ammonia gas and are easily reduced.
- the average particle diameter exceeds 75 ⁇ m, the particles are large, so that the surface in contact with the ammonia gas is small and the reduction is difficult. As a result, it is considered difficult to adjust the reduction rate to a preferable range.
- the particle content of particles having a particle diameter of 25 ⁇ m or less is obtained by applying 20 g of dry powder to a sieve having an opening of 25 ⁇ m and a diameter of 20 cm, applying a vibrator for 3 minutes (for example, National Panabrator), and passing the sieve. And the mass of particles remaining on the sieve can be measured and calculated using the following equation.
- (Particle content (%) of particle diameter of 25 ⁇ m or less) (mass of particles passing through a sieve) ⁇ ⁇ (mass of particles passing through a sieve) + (mass of particles remaining on the sieve) ⁇ ⁇ 100
- the reason why the content of particles having a particle diameter of 25 ⁇ m or less is measured after “baking in air at 400 ° C. for 1 hour” is to prevent the dry powder from being dissolved in water. That is, “calcination in air at 400 ° C. for 1 hour” is exclusively for measurement, and is not related to the later-described firing step. It may be considered that the particle diameter does not substantially change before and after the firing. The reduction rate of the calcined sample may be different from other dry powders. However, since the amount of the sample is usually very small, the performance of the entire catalyst is hardly affected whether or not it is subjected to the calcining step described later. In addition, the measurement object of an average particle diameter does not necessarily need to be a dry powder, You may measure the average particle diameter of the pre-stage baking body baked as needed.

- Nb is small, The crystalline ammoxidation reaction field decreases, and if there is too much Nb, there is a possibility of promoting the growth of a crystal phase other than the reaction field.
- the crystallite diameter of the catalyst is preferably 20 to 250 nm. In the case where the crystallite diameter is smaller than 20 nm, the catalyst active points are reduced due to the small crystal particles. Moreover, since it is expected that other crystal systems and amorphous substances that may originally become active species are likely to cause side reactions. When the crystallite diameter of the catalyst exceeds 250 nm, the active species of the catalyst are active species of the catalyst on one side and also promote side reactions on the other side. , The tendency to promote side reactions increases. From the same viewpoint, the crystallite diameter of the catalyst is more preferably 40 to 150 nm. In general, the size of a crystal can be measured using X-ray diffraction.

- ⁇ and ⁇ are input in radians.
- the growth of crystal grains is largely related to the firing temperature and the catalyst composition. When the active species of this catalyst have the same composition, it is possible to increase the crystallite size of the active species by increasing the calcination temperature.
- the crystallite size is increased by slowing the rate of temperature decrease when the temperature is lowered from the main firing temperature, while the crystallite size is decreased when the temperature is rapidly decreased. Furthermore, if the oxidation / reduction conditions at the time of firing, the composition of the raw material charge, for example, the content of elements such as Nb is increased, the crystallite size decreases. Thus, by adjusting various conditions, The size can be controlled.

Abstract
Description
アンモ酸化触媒は、一般的にはモリブデン、バナジウム、アンチモン、ニオブ等を必要に応じて混合、乾燥及び焼成して得られる金属酸化物である。金属酸化物に含まれる金属の組成は、触媒性能に直接的に影響するので、様々な組成比について検討されてきた。さらに、近年では、組成比のみでは表現されない金属酸化物の物性も、触媒性能に影響しうることが分かってきている。
例えば、特許文献1には、モリブデン、バナジウム、アンチモン、ニオブを含有し、還元率が8~12%であり、比表面積が5~30m2/gである金属酸化物が記載されている。
また、特許文献2には、アンモ酸化触媒の表面に突起状の流動性を阻害する物質が生成することが記載されている。特許文献2によると、この物質を触媒表面から除去することで、目的物収率を維持して、不飽和酸、不飽和ニトリルが製造できるとされている。
しかしながら、本発明者らが検討したところによると、突起体の組成は触媒のコア部分とは異なっているために、突起体を除去してしまうと、出来上がる触媒の組成は仕込みの組成とは異なってくる。つまり、仕込みの組成を最適化し、それを前提に還元率や比表面積を決定しても、その後に一部を突起体として除去してしまうことで、組成は最適値からずれてしまうことが分かった。
上記事情に鑑み、本発明の目的は、プロパン又はイソブタンの気相接触酸化又は気相接触アンモ酸化反応に用いる複合酸化物触媒であって、粒子表面に存在する突起体の除去工程を経た後に、構成する金属が適正な組成比を有する複合酸化物触媒及びその製造方法を提供することにある。

工程(I)は、Mo、V、Sb、Nb、W、及びZを含有し、Mo1原子に対するVの原子比a、Sbの原子比b、Nbの原子比c、Wの原子比d、Zの原子比eが、それぞれ、0.1≦a≦0.5、0.1≦b≦0.5、0.01≦c≦0.5、0≦d≦0.4、0≦e≦0.2である原料調合液を調製する工程である。なお、本明細書において、「調合」と「調製」とは互いに同義である。
原料調合工程においては、溶媒及び/又は分散媒に、複合酸化物触媒の構成元素を特定の割合で溶解又は分散させ、原料調合液を得る。原料調合液の溶媒として水性媒体が好ましく、通常は水を用いることができる。原料調合液はMo、V、Sb、Nb、W、及びZ(ZはLa、Ce、Pr、Yb、Y、Sc、Sr、Baから選ばれる少なくとも1種類以上の元素を示す。)を含有する。原料調合液の原料としては、複合酸化物触媒の構成元素を含む塩又は化合物を使用できる。
まず、測定しようとする粒子を適当なマトリックス樹脂中に包埋させ、これを研磨し、埋設した触媒粒子の断面が見えるまで全体を削る。次いで、断面の見えた触媒粒子について次のようにしてEPMA測定を行う。
(1)EPMA測定における観測視野内に上記触媒粒子の断面がくるように試料の位置を設定する。
(2)該触媒粒子断面に電子線を照射し、電子線を当てた部分から出てくるSi又は成分Zの特性X線の強度をカウントし、分析する領域を電子線で走査することによって面分析を行う。
原料調合液への添加及び混合を容易にする観点で、粉体シリカは予め水に分散させておくことが好ましい。粉体シリカを水に分散させておく方法としては特に制限はなく、一般的なホモジナイザー、ホモミキサー又は超音波振動器等を単独若しくは組み合わせて用いて、分散させることができる。この時の粉体シリカの一次形状は、球体でもよいし、非球体でもよい。
まず、Mo、V、Sb及び成分Zを含有する水性混合液を調製する。より具体的には、Mo化合物、V化合物、Sb化合物、成分Z化合物を水に添加し、加熱して水性混合液(A)を調製する。水性混合液(A)調製時の加熱温度及び加熱時間は原料化合物が十分に溶解しうる状態になるよう調整することが好ましく、加熱温度は好ましくは70℃~100℃であり、加熱時間は好ましくは30分~5時間である。加熱時の攪拌の回転数は、同様に原料が溶解しやすい適度な回転数に調整することができる。原料が金属塩である場合、それを十分に溶解させる観点から、攪拌状態を保つことが好ましい。この時、容器内は空気雰囲気でもよいが、得られる複合酸化物触媒の酸化数を調整する観点から、窒素雰囲気にすることもできる。水性混合液(A)の加熱が終了した後の状態を水性混合液(A’)とする。水性混合液(A’)の温度は20℃以上80℃以下で保持することが好ましく、より好ましくは40℃以上80℃以下である。水性混合液(A’)の温度が20℃未満である場合には、水性混合液(A’)に溶解している金属種の析出が起こる可能性がある。

(d)(c)工程で得られた溶液に粉体シリカ含有懸濁液を加えて、熟成する工程。
工程(II)は、前記原料調合液を乾燥し、乾燥粉体を得る工程である。
原料調合工程を経て得られたスラリー状の原料調合液を乾燥することによって、乾燥粉体が得られる。乾燥は公知の方法で行うことができ、例えば、噴霧乾燥又は蒸発乾固によって行うこともできる。気相接触酸化反応又は気相接触アンモ酸化反応で流動床反応方式を採用する場合、反応器内での流動性を好ましい状態にする等の観点から、微小球状の乾燥粉体を得ることが好ましいので、噴霧乾燥を採用するのが好ましい。噴霧乾燥法における噴霧化は、遠心方式、二流体ノズル方式又は高圧ノズル方式のいずれであってもよい。乾燥熱源としては、スチーム、電気ヒーター等によって加熱された空気を用いることができる。噴霧乾燥装置の乾燥機の入口における乾燥熱源の温度(以下、「乾燥機の入口温度」ともいう。)は、得られる触媒粒子形状及び/又は強度を好ましい状態にする観点、得られる複合酸化物の触媒性能を向上させる観点等から、150~300℃が好ましい。また、乾燥機の出口における排気温度(以下、「乾燥機の出口温度」ともいう。)は100~160℃が好ましい。
工程(A)は、測定した乾燥粉体の吸収又は反射スペクトルから最終的に得られる複合酸化物触媒の性能を予測して、予測した複合酸化物触媒の性能に基づいて各工程における操作条件を制御する工程であり、この工程(A)を行うことで、より一層性能に優れた触媒を効率的に得ることが可能となる。
工程(A-1)は、測定した吸収又は反射スペクトルに応じて、工程(I)における調製条件を決定する工程である。本工程においては、工程(I)において異なる調製条件下で得た原料調合液から、工程(II)において得られた乾燥粉体の吸収又は反射スペクトルと、その乾燥粉体から得た複合酸化物触媒の性能の相関図を用いて、最終的に得られる複合酸化物触媒の性能が良好となるように調製条件を決定する。
工程(A-2)は、測定した吸収又は反射スペクトルに応じて、工程(II)における乾燥条件を決定する工程である。本工程においては、工程(II)において異なる乾燥条件下で得た乾燥粉体の吸収又は反射スペクトルとその乾燥粉体から得た複合酸化物触媒の性能の相関図を用いて、最終的に得られる複合酸化物触媒の性能が良好となるように乾燥条件を決定する。
乾燥粉体は、通常、アンモニウム根、有機酸、無機酸を含んでおり、不活性ガスを流通させながら焼成する場合、これらが蒸発、分解等をする際に触媒構成元素が還元される。アンモニウム根は蒸発してアンモニアガスとなり、前段焼成体粒子を気相から還元する。前段焼成体の還元率は、特に後述する前段焼成における焼成時間や焼成温度により変化する。焼成時間が長い場合、又は焼成温度が高い場合は還元が進み易く、還元率が高くなる。比較的小粒径の前駆体を多く含む場合、典型的には平均粒子径が35μm未満、又は粒子径25μm以下の粒子含有率が20質量%を超えると、不活性ガスに同伴されたり、焼成管を用いた場合に焼成管の回転と共に舞い上がったりして焼成管中を逆戻りする小粒子が多くなる。その結果、焼成管内に滞留する時間が所望の時間より長い粒子が存在し、還元率を好ましい範囲にすることが困難になる。また、小粒子はアンモニアガスと接触する表面が多く還元されやすいことも考えられる。逆に、平均粒子径が75μmを超えると、粒子が大きいため、アンモニアガスと接触する表面が少なく還元されにくくなる。結果として、還元率を好ましい範囲に調整することが困難になると考えられる。
(粒子径25μm以下の粒子含有率(%))=(篩を通った粒子の質量)÷{(篩を通った粒子の質量)+(篩上に残った粒子の質量)}×100
工程(III)は、乾燥粉体を前段焼成し、前段焼成体を得る工程である。
工程(IV)は、前段焼成体を本焼成し、粒子表面に突起体を有する焼成体を得る工程である。
本明細書においては、工程(III)と工程(IV)とをまとめて「焼成工程」とも言う。
工程(III)及び(IV)においては、乾燥工程で得られた乾燥粉体を焼成する。焼成温度、時間、雰囲気等の条件は、乾燥粉体に含まれる有機成分の除去や複合酸化物の結晶成長の観点等で適宜決めればよく、特に限定されない。本実施形態の製造方法においては、後述のとおり温度等の条件を変更して、前段焼成、本焼成とした多段階の焼成を行う。
乾燥粉体を焼成するための焼成装置としては、例えば、回転炉(ロータリーキルン)を用いることができる。また、乾燥粉体をその中で焼成する焼成器の形状は特に限定されないが、管状(焼成管)であると、連続的な焼成を実施することができる観点から好ましく、特に円筒状であるのが好ましい。加熱方式は、焼成温度を好ましい昇温パターンになるよう調整しやすい等の観点から外熱式が好ましく、電気炉を好適に使用できる。焼成管の大きさ及び材質等は焼成条件や製造量に応じて適当なものを選択することができる。焼成管の内径は、触媒層内の焼成温度分布にムラがないようにする、焼成時間及び製造量を適正な値に調整する等の観点から、好ましくは70~2000mm、より好ましくは100~1200mmである。また、焼成管の長さは、焼成管内の乾燥粉体及び触媒前駆体粒子の滞留時間、即ち、焼成時間の分布を極力狭くする観点、焼成管の歪みを防止する観点、焼成時間及び製造量を適正な値に調整する観点等から、好ましくは200~10000mm、より好ましくは800~8000mmである。
なお、本明細書において「触媒前駆体」とは、焼成工程の途中段階で生成する化合物のことを言う。
還元率(%)=((n0-n)/n0)×100・・・(D)
(式中、nは前段焼成体における酸素以外の構成元素の原子価を満足する酸素原子の数であり、n0は前段焼成体の酸素以外の構成元素がそれぞれの最高酸化数を有する時に必要な酸素原子の数である。)
により表される。
ビーカーに前段焼成体約200mgを精秤する。更に濃度が既知のKMnO4水溶液を過剰量添加する。更に70℃の純水150mL、1:1硫酸(即ち、濃硫酸と水を容量比1/1で混合して得られる硫酸水溶液)2mLを添加した後、ビーカーに時計皿で蓋をし、70℃±2℃の湯浴中で1hr攪拌し、試料を酸化させる。この時、KMnO4は過剰に存在しており、液中には未反応のKMnO4が存在するため、液色は紫色であることを確認する。酸化終了後、ろ紙にてろ過を行い、ろ液全量を回収する。濃度が既知のシュウ酸ナトリウム水溶液を、ろ液中に存在するKMnO4に対し、過剰量添加し、液温が70℃となるように加熱攪拌する。液が無色透明になることを確認し、1:1硫酸2mLを添加する。液温を70℃±2℃に保ちながら攪拌を続け、濃度が既知のKMnO4水溶液で滴定する。液色がKMnO4によりかすかな淡桃色が約30秒続くところを終点とする。
全KMnO4量、全Na2C2O4量から、試料の酸化に消費されたKMnO4量を求める。この値から、(n0-n)を算出し、これに基づき還元率を求める。
ビーカーに、瑪瑙(めのう)製乳鉢で擂り潰した焼成体約200mgを精秤する。95℃の純水150mL、1:1硫酸(即ち、濃硫酸と水を容量比1/1で混合して得られる硫酸水溶液)4mLを添加する。液温を95℃±2℃に保ちながら攪拌を続け、濃度が既知のKMnO4水溶液で滴定する。この時、液色がKMnO4滴下により一時的に紫色となるが、紫色が30秒以上続かないように、ゆっくりと少量ずつKMnO4を滴下する。また、水の蒸発により液量が少なくなるので、液量が一定になるように95℃の純水を追加する。液色がKMnO4によりかすかな淡桃色が約30秒続くところを終点とする。
こうして、試料の酸化に消費されたKMnO4量を求める。この値から、(n0-n)を算出し、これに基づき還元率を求める。
試料の構成元素が揮発、逃散しない条件で、前段焼成体又は焼成体が焼成された焼成温度よりも高い温度まで加熱し、酸素による完全酸化を行い、増加した質量(結合した酸素の量)を求め、これから(n0-n)の値を求め、これに基づき還元率を求める。
本焼成工程において、内径500mm、長さ4500mm、肉厚20mmで管内を8等分に堰板を設けたSUS製焼成管を6rpmで回転しつつ、本焼成における最高焼成温度を650℃とし、さらに系内の不活性ガス(窒素ガス)量を合計667NL/minで流通させながら、20kg/hrの速度で前段焼成体を供給し本焼成を行う場合、本焼成体の比表面積を7~20m2/gの範囲内に収める場合には、例えば以下のような運転を行うことが好ましい。例えば、前段焼成体の本焼成管内への供給量を10kg/hrに減らした場合には、適正な比表面積の範囲を維持するために不活性ガス(窒素ガス)量を250~400NL/minに調整することが好ましい。また、堰の高さを低くする、焼成管の径を小さくする、焼成管の長さを短くする、焼成管の設置角度の傾斜を大きくする(ただし、下流側を低くする)、焼成管内の最高温度領域(ここでいう「最高温度領域」とは、前段焼成時においては300~390℃の範囲を、本焼成時においては600~700℃の範囲の温度領域のことを示す。)の長さ方向の幅を短くする、本焼成における最高温度を低くする等を、それぞれ、又は任意に組み合わせて調整することで、より簡便に比表面積を目的範囲内に調整することができる。一方、前段焼成体の本焼成管内への供給量を40kg/hrに増加させた場合、不活性ガス(窒素ガス)量を1000~1600NL/minに調整することが好ましい。また、堰の高さを高くする、焼成管の径を太くする、焼成管の長さを長くする、焼成管の設置角度の傾斜を小さくする(ただし、下流側を低くする)、焼成管内の最高温度領域の長さ方向の幅を短くする、本焼成における最高焼成温度を高くする等を、それぞれ、又は任意に組み合わせて調整することで比表面積を目的範囲内に調整することが可能となる。このように、前段焼成において条件を変更した際にも、本焼成における条件を調整することで、適正な還元率と共に、適正な比表面積を維持することが可能である。
本実施形態の製造方法における工程(V)は、焼成体の粒子表面に存在する突起体を気流により除去する工程である。
焼成工程を経た焼成体の粒子表面には突出する突起体が存在する。工程(V)においては、この突起体を除去して、焼成体が有する突起体の量を、焼成体の全質量に対して好ましくは2質量%以下にする。突起体の除去方法としては、いくつかの方法が考えられるが、これらのうち、ガス流通下、焼成体同士の接触等により除去する方法が好ましい。例えば、焼成体を貯蔵するホッパー等にガスを流通する方法、流動床反応器に焼成体を入れてそこにガスを流通させる方法が挙げられる。流動床反応器を用いる方法は、突起体を除去するための特別な装置が不要である点で好ましい態様であるが、もともと焼成体(触媒)同士の接触を意図して設計された装置ではないためか、少ない量の焼成体を投入して時間をかけて流動させる等の対策をしない限り、焼成体の投入量、流通させる時間やガス量等、条件によっては突起体を十分に除去できない場合がある。本発明者らの検討によると、十分な流速の気流を、突起体を有する焼成体に接触させることで効率的に突起体を除去することができる。適切な流速を焼成体に接触させられる構造の装置を設ければ、大きなスケールでも、突起体を効率的に除去することができる。
例えば、焼成体を収容する本体と、本体の上部に設けられた焼成体の回収手段と、回収手段に接続された前記焼成体の戻し手段と、を有し、前記戻し手段は、下端が気流に接触するように設けられており、本体内で気流に接触した焼成体の一部が回収手段によって回収され、戻し手段によって本体内に戻される装置は、大きなスケールでも効率よく突起体を除去しうる。

14<u2×V×K/M
を満たすようにu2、V、K及びMを設定するのが好ましいことが分かった。一方で、焼成体同士及び/又は焼成体と系の壁面などとの接触に伴う焼成体の割れを防ぐ観点から、エネルギー換算値が、
u2×V×K/M<100
を満たすように、各数値を設定するのが好ましいことが分かった。すなわち、下記式(X)
14<u2×V×K/M<100 (X)
を満たすことで、除去工程の処理時間を一定の範囲内に抑え、かつ焼成体の破壊を防ぐことができるので、突起体が焼成体表面からより効率的に除去され得ることを見出した。なお、エネルギー換算値の好適値は除去装置の因子にも依存し、装置の形状、大きさ、ノズルの向き、壁との接触などにより変化するが、工業的に使用する規模の装置の場合、20<u2×V×K/M<90を満たすのがより好ましく、30<u2×V×K/M<80を満たすのが更に好ましい。
Mo1VaSbbNbcWdZeOn・・・(1)
(式中、成分ZはLa、Ce、Pr、Yb、Y、Sc、Sr、Baから選ばれる少なくとも1種類以上の元素であり、a、b、c、d、e、nは、それぞれ、Mo1原子に対する各元素の原子比を示し、0.1≦a≦0.4、0.1≦b≦0.4、0.01≦c≦0.3、0≦d≦0.2、0≦e≦0.1であり、原子比a/b、a/cは0.85≦a/b<1.0、1.4<a/c<2.3である。)
で表される組成を有する複合酸化物を含む。本実施形態の製造方法においては、原料調合液の仕込み組成にも依るが、一般的には、突起体の除去によってMo及びV、Sbが減少し、原子比a/b、a/cが0.85≦a/b<1.0、1.4<a/c<2.3を満たすようになる。原子比a/bについて、0.85≦a/b<1.0を満たすことにより、Vの過剰に由来するプロパンの燃焼による収率の低下が少なくなり、Sbの過剰に由来する他の結晶相の成長が少なくなる。好ましくは0.88≦a/b<1.0であり、より好ましくは、0.90≦a/b<1.0である。また原子比a/cについて、1.4<a/c<2.3を満たすことにより、適正なアンモ酸化のための結晶性の反応場の成長を促すと考えられ、Nbが少ない場合には、結晶性のアンモ酸化反応場が少なくなり、Nbが多すぎると反応場以外の結晶相の成長を促す可能性がある。好ましくは、1.5<a/c<2.3であり、より好ましくは1.6<a/c<2.3である。
一般的に、結晶の大きさは、X線回折を用いて測定することができる。本明細書中、触媒の結晶子径(L)は、リガク株式会社製、RINT2500VHF(商品名)を用い、下記のシェラーの式によって求めた値とする。
L=Kλ/(βCosθ)
ここで、Kは定数であり0.9とする。λはX線の波長であり、1.5418Å、βはその角度における半価幅(単位:ラジアン)であり、実際の半価幅bから完全でよく成長した結晶による半価幅のB(本装置では0.1を用いた)を引いた値である。θとβはラジアンで入力する。結晶粒子の成長には、焼成温度、触媒組成が大きく関係している。この触媒の活性種は、同じ組成の場合には、焼成温度を高くすることにより、活性種の結晶子サイズを大きくすることが可能である。また、本焼成温度から温度を降下させていく際の降温速度を遅めることで結晶子サイズは大きくなり、一方、急激に温度を低下させると結晶子サイズは小さくなる。さらに、焼成の際の酸化/還元条件、原料の仕込みの組成、例えばNbなどの元素の含有率を高めると結晶子サイズは小さくなる、このように、各種条件を調整することで、結晶子の大きさを制御することができる。

ビーカーに前段焼成体約200mgを精秤した。そこに濃度が既知のKMnO4水溶液を過剰量添加した。更に70℃の純水150mL、1:1硫酸(即ち、濃硫酸と水を容量比1/1で混合して得られる硫酸水溶液。以下同様。)2mLを添加した。次いで、そのビーカーに時計皿で蓋をし、70℃±2℃の湯浴中で1hr攪拌し、試料を酸化させた。この時、KMnO4は過剰に存在させており、液中には未反応のKMnO4が存在するため、液色は紫色であることを確認した。酸化終了後、ろ紙にてろ過を行い、ろ液の全量を回収した。濃度が既知のシュウ酸ナトリウム(Na2C2O4))水溶液を、ろ液中に存在するKMnO4に対し、過剰量添加し、液温が70℃となるように加熱攪拌した。液が無色透明になることを確認し、1:1硫酸2mLを添加した。液温を70℃±2℃に保ちながら攪拌を続け、濃度を既知のKMnO4水溶液で滴定した。この際、KMnO4により、液色がかすかな淡桃色を呈して約30秒続いたところを終点とした。
全KMnO4量、全Na2C2O4量から、試料の酸化に消費されたKMnO4量を求めた。この値から、(n0-n)を算出し、これに基づき還元率を求めた。
