またさらに、本発明に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーでは、前記粒子の投影面積から算出した直径の値の平均値が40~200μmであることが好ましい。
なお、本発明に係るウェットケーキは、本発明の熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含み、本発明の熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの固形分が70質量%~90質量%であることを特徴とする。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、重合体から形成された外殻内に発泡剤が封入された構造を有するものであり、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子の円形度の平均値が0.985以下であるものである。また、円形度の平均値が、0.980以下であることがより好ましい。円形度については下記に詳述するため、ここでは説明を省略する。円形度の平均値が上記の値(0.985以下)を満たすことにより、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子同士の隙間が大きくなるため脱水性は良くなる。そして、円形度の平均値が0.980以下であると、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子同士の隙間が更に大きくなるため脱水性は更に良くなる。これにより、効率良く(短時間)、固形分の高いマイクロスフェアーウェットケーキを得ることが可能となる。すなわち、円形度の平均値が、0.985以下であると、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーのスラリー中に存在する水分を効率的に脱水処理して、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むウェットケーキに存在する水分量の調節を容易に、かつ、迅速に実行することができる。そして、円形度の平均値が、好適な0.980以下であると、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーのスラリー中に存在する水分を更に効率的に脱水処理して、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むウェットケーキに存在する水分量の調節を更に、容易に、かつ、迅速に実行することができる。円形度の平均値が0.985超であると、粒子の充填率が向上し、粒子間の隙間が狭くなることから脱水の負荷が高くなり、脱水効率は落ち、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むウェットケーキに存在する水分量の調節が困難となる。
本発明における円形度とは、本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子の実測される形状と、円形との相似度を示すパラメータである。すなわち、円形度は、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子の形状がどれだけ円形に近い形状であるかを表すパラメータである。円形度は、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの形状を定量的に表現する方法として用いられるものであり、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの凹凸のレベルを定量的に示す指標である。円形度は、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子の形状が円形と同一形状(合同)である場合に1を示し、円形との形状の相似性が小さくなるほど、すなわち熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの表面形状が複雑(凹凸の頻度及び凹凸の高低差が大きい形状)になるほど小さな値となる。
円形度は、円形度算出装置を用いて算出する。円形度算出装置は、撮像部、画像解析処理部および円形度算出部を備えている。各部材について以下に説明する。なお、円形度算出装置は、撮像部において得られる画像データ、ならびに画像解析処理部および円形度算出部において算出される各データを適宜保持するためのメモリ部材も備えている。
(撮像部)
撮像部は、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを撮像する撮像部材である。より具体的には、撮像部は、被写体である熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを通過させるセルに対して1/60秒間隔でストロボ光が照射することにより、被写体の撮像画像を静止画として得る(このときのストロボの発光時間は約2μ秒である)。撮像部としては、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを撮像可能な部材であれば特に限定されるものではない。例えば、CCDカメラおよび撮像機能を有する電子顕微鏡などを挙げることができる。なお、撮像部において撮像する粒子の数は、10000個程度であることが好ましい。撮像部は、後述する像解析処理部および円形度算出部を備えた装置(例えば、コンピュータ)と一体であってもよいし、独立していてもよい。
(画像解析処理部)
画像解析処理部は、撮像部において得られた撮像画像に基づいて、撮像された熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子が円形であったと仮定した場合の粒子の粒径を示すデータ(以下、粒径D)および周長を示すデータ(以下、周長C)を算出するものである。画像解析処理部は、撮像画像における熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの投影面積を示すデータ(以下、面積S)を取得し、そのデータに基づいて粒径Dを算出する。より具体的には、画像解析処理部は、撮像画像における熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーそれぞれの面積Sを算出し、式(D=2×(S/π)1/2)に算出した面積Sの値を代入することにより粒径Dを算出する。なお、画像解析処理部は、粒径Dの他に、算出する頻度値が50%となる粒径Dの値を平均粒径D50として算出している。平均粒径D50は、撮像画像から算出した10000個の粒子それぞれの粒径DをLOG変換した目盛をX軸とし、0.5~200μmの範囲を1024分割して、各頻度値から算出される。画像解析処理部は、頻度値が50%となる粒径Dの値を平均粒径D50として算出する。なお、本明細書等において、平均粒径D50の値を熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの平均粒径とみなす。
(円形度算出部)
円形度算出部は、画像解析処理部において算出された粒径Dと周長Cに基づいて円形度を算出するものである。まず、円形度算出部は、撮像された各粒子の個別円形度を示すデータ(以下、個別円形度φ´)を算出する。個別円形度φ´は、粒径Dから求められる円周の値(粒子を円形と仮定した場合の粒子の周長の値)と、実測された周長Cとを比較した値である。すなわち、実際の粒子が円形であれば、仮想値である円周値と周長Cとは同値となる。円形度算出部は、粒径Dと周長Cを式(φ´= Dπ/C)に代入することにより、個別円形度φ´を算出する。円形度算出部は、撮像部において撮像された粒子それぞれの個別円形度φ´を算出する。
次に、円形度算出部は、算出した個別円形度φ´に基づいて、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーにおける円形度の平均値を示すデータ(以下、円形度φ)を算出する。円形度算出部は、算出した個別円形度φ´それぞれの頻度を示すデータを頻度値として取得する。続いて円形度算出部は、ユーザによって設定される範囲内の値を示す個別円形度φと、その個別円形度φ´それぞれの頻度値とに基づいて円形度φを算出する。すなわち、円形度φは、ユーザによって設定される範囲内の各値にその各値の頻度値を乗じた数値の総和を、ユーザによって設定される範囲内の各値の頻度値の総和で除した値である。なお、円形度算出部は、頻度値を取得する際に、ユーザにより設定される閾値を設けてもよい。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、重合体から形成された外殻内に発泡剤が封入された構造を有する。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、上記のように、少なくとも1種の重合性単量体が用いられる。すなわち、外殻を形成する重合体を形成するために少なくとも1種の重合性単量体が用いられる。重合性単量体として、1種の重合性単量体が用いられてもよいし、複数種(2種以上)の重合性単量体(2種類以上の重合性単量体を含むものを重合性単量体混合物とも称する。)を用いてもよい。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーでは、外殻を形成する重合体を形成するために架橋性単量体が用いられる。架橋性単量体は、1種の架橋性単量体を用いてもよいし、複数種(2種以上)の架橋性単量体を用いてもよい。架橋性単量体としては、2つ以上の重合性炭素-炭素二重結合(-C=C-)を有する多官能性化合物が用いられる。重合性炭素-炭素二重結合としては、例えば、ビニル基、メタクリル基、アクリル基、及びアリル基が挙げられる。2つ以上の重合性炭素-炭素二重結合は、それぞれ同一または相異なっていてもよい。なお、発泡倍率とは、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、発泡開始温度以上の温度に加熱すると、それ自体が膨張して、発泡体粒子(独立気泡体)を形成するところ、発泡体粒子の体積を、未発泡時の熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの体積で割って算出された値をいう。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、重合体から形成された外殻内に封入された発泡剤を含む。発泡剤は、通常、外殻を形成する重合体の軟化点以下の温度でガス状になる物質である。発泡剤は、発泡開始温度に応じた沸点を有する炭化水素等を用いることができる。発泡剤としては、例えば、イソブタン、n-ブタン、n-ペンタン、イソペンタン、n-ヘキサン、イソオクタン、イソドデカン、石油エーテル、及びこれらの2種以上の混合物を挙げることができる。発泡剤は、重合性単量体100質量部に対して、10~40質量部、好ましくは12~35質量部、より好ましくは15~32質量部の範囲となる含有量で使用する。なお、発泡開始温度とは、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを加熱すると、発泡剤が気化して膨張する力が外殻に働き、同時に、外殻を形成する重合体の弾性率が急激に減少し、ある温度を境にして、急激な膨張が起きるが、その急激な膨張が起きる温度をいう。
本発明の熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、分散安定剤を含有する水系分散媒体中で、重合性単量体と架橋性単量体と発泡剤とを懸濁重合する方法により製造することができる。以下、懸濁重合による熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの製造方法について詳述する。重合性単量体との架橋性単量体と発泡剤とを含有する混合物(以下、重合性混合物とも称する)を水系分散媒体中に分散させて、油性の重合性混合物の液滴を形成する。重合性混合物の液滴の形成は、造粒と呼ばれることもある。この液滴形成後、重合開始剤を用いて、重合性単量体の重合を行う。このような懸濁重合により、生成重合体から形成された外殻内に発泡剤が封入された構造を有する熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得ることができる。
本発明の実施形態に係るウェットケーキは、本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むものである。ウェットケーキにおける熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの固形分はウェットケーキ全量を100質量%としたときに固形分が70質量%~90質量%であり、75質量%~85質量%であることが好ましく、78質量%~83質量%であることがより好ましい。固形分が70質量%~90質量%であることによって、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むウェットケーキを輸送するうえでの運搬効率が悪くなることを防ぐと共に、ウェットケーキから水分を除去するための乾燥の負荷が小さくなる。また、上記の固形分の好ましい範囲(75質量%~89質量%)及びより好ましい範囲(78質量%~89質量%)によって、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むウェットケーキを輸送するうえでの運搬効率が悪くなることを更に防ぐと共に、ウェットケーキから水分を除去するための乾燥の負荷が更に小さくなる。輸送上の運搬効率及び乾燥の負荷という点から考えれば、固形分が高い程よいということになるが、固形分を高くするには、それにともなって脱水処理時間が長くなって生産性が低下する。したがって、生産性と固形分とのバランスを検討した場合に、本発明の実施形態に係るウェットケーキにおける固形分の範囲は、70質量%~90質量%であり、75質量%~89質量%であることが好ましく、78質量%~89質量%であることがより好ましい。
本発明の実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、発泡剤として使用したり、ポリマー材料と混合して組成物としたりすることができる。例えば、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーをポリマー材料、塗料またはインクなどに配合することにより、加熱発泡して発泡体粒子を含有する物品(例えば、発泡成形品、発泡塗膜、発泡インクまたは繊維状物質)とすることができる。また、本実施形態に係る熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーは、未発泡のまま熱可塑性樹脂と溶融混練し、ペレット化することもできる。自動車等の塗料の充填剤;壁紙や発泡インク(T-シャツ等のレリーフ模様付け)の発泡剤(熱発泡性発泡剤);収縮防止剤などに使用される。

(1)熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの円形度φおよび平均粒径D50
熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーのスラリーを篩分網#100(目開き150μm)で篩分した。篩分したスラリー0.5gを純イオン交換水20mlに分散し、超音波を15分以上かけて分散して、これを試料とした。円形度φおよび平均粒径D50は、シスメックス株式会社製のFPIA-3000を使用して測定をした。測定条件は、トータルカウント10000(撮影粒子数は10000個)とした。また、円形度φを算出するための頻度値を取得する際の個別円形度φ´の閾値は、0.2μmとし、円形度φは、個別円形度φ´が0.9~1.0の範囲内において算出した。これは、個別円形度φ´が0.9未満のものを除外した理由としては、各粒子が凝集等しており複数粒子をカウントしている可能性があるためである。
熱発泡性マイクロスフェアー含むウェットケーキの試料の重量を天秤(小数点以下4桁まで表示)で計量し、これをBgとした。続いて、ウェットケーキの試料を入れるアルミカップを空の状態で、天秤(小数点以下4桁まで表示)で計量した。これをAgとした。ウェットケーキの試料をアルミカップに入れたサンプルを、熱風乾燥機で、85(℃)で、1.5時間で乾燥させた。乾燥後、そのサンプルをデシケーター内に入れ、室温冷却した(10分間放置)。その後、そのサンプル(乾燥処理したアルミカップ+乾燥処理した熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの試料)の重量を天秤(小数点以下4桁まで表示)で計量した。これをCgとした。式:[(C-A)÷B]×100を用いて、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの固形分を計算した。
(1)水系分散媒体の調製
20質量%コロイダルシリカ15g、50質量%ジエタノールアミン-アジピン酸縮合生成物(酸価=78mgKOH/g)0.7g、亜硝酸ナトリウム0.06g、塩化ナトリウム89g及び水288gを混合して、水系分散媒体を調製した。この水系分散媒体に塩酸を加えて、pHを3.5に調整した。

前記で調製した水系分散媒体と重合性混合物とを、ホモジナイザーで攪拌混合して、水系分散媒体中に重合性混合物の微小な液滴を形成した。この重合性混合物の微小な液滴を含有する水系分散媒体を、攪拌機付きの重合缶(1.5L)に仕込み、温水バスを用いて60℃で14時間、さらに70℃で10時間加熱して反応させた。重合後、生成した熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含有するスラリーを濾過・水洗し、乾燥して、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。
遠心効果615Gの遠心脱水機に熱発泡性マイクロスフェアー含有スラリーを投入して遠心脱水した。そこへ、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの1.5~2倍の水を投入して洗浄し、更に10分間遠心脱水した。その後、遠心脱水機からウェットケーキを取り出した。
実施例1で得られた熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを用いて、円形度φおよび平均粒径D50を算出した。円形度φは、0.962であり、平均粒径D50は、53μmであり、固形分は81%であった。
アクリロニトリル71g、メタクリロニトリル27g、及びメタクリル酸メチル2gを用いた以外は、実施例1の方法と同様な方法で熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。円形度φは、0.963であり、平均粒径D50は51μmであり、固形分は81%であった。
アクリロニトリル72g、メタクリロニトリル26g、及びメタクリル酸メチル2gを用いた以外は、実施例1の方法と同様な方法で熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。円形度φは、0.961であり、平均粒径D50は、55μmであり、固形分は82%であった。
アクリロニトリル75g、メタクリロニトリル23g、及びメタクリル酸メチル2gを用いた以外は、実施例1の方法と同様な方法で熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。円形度φは、0.961であり、平均粒径D50は、57μmであり、固形分は82%であった。
水系分散媒体の調製として、20質量%コロイダルシリカを30g、50質量%ジエタノールアミン-アジピン酸縮合生成物(酸価=78mgKOH/g)1.4g、亜硝酸ナトリウム0.06g、塩化ナトリウム89g及び水275gとし、重合性混合物の調整として、アクリロニトリル(AN)70g、メタクリロニトリル(MAN)28g、メタクリル酸メチル(MMA)2g、エチレングリコールジメタクリレート(1G)0.5重量部、イソペンタン13g、ヘキサン7gを用いた以外は、実施例1の方法と同様な方法で熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。円形度φは、0.983であり、平均粒径D50は、20μmであり、固形分は77%であった。
水系分散媒体の調製として、20質量%コロイダルシリカ32.5g、50質量%ジエタノールアミン-アジピン酸縮合生成物(酸価=78mgKOH/g)1.52g、亜硝酸ナトリウム0.48g、塩化ナトリウム80g及び水250gとし、重合性単量体混合物の調製として、メタクリロニトリル(MAN)55g、メタクリル酸(MAA)43g、アクリル酸メチル(MA)2g、ジエチレングリコールジメタクリレート(2G)0g(不使用)、イソプロパノール15g、イソオクタン15g、及び2、2′-アゾビスイソブチロニトリル(V-60)1.0gとし、重合条件として、温水バスを用いて60℃で15時間、さらに70℃で10時間加熱して反応させた以外は、実施例1の方法と同様な方法で熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを得た。このとき、円形度φは、0.989であり、平均粒径D50は、20μmであり、固形分は58%であった。
熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの円形度が高ければ高いほど(真円に近ければ近いほど)、脱水性は良好になると考えるのが一般的だが、実際は、実施例1~5で得られた熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーのように、円形度が低い(凸凹が多い)熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーが、比較例1で得られた熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーのように円形度が高い熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーに対して、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーの粒子同士の隙間が大きくなるため脱水性が良好となる。これにより、熱発泡性マイクロスフェアーを含むスラリー中の水分を短時間で効率良く脱水処理して、固形分の高いウェットケーキを得ることができる。
