本発明におけるアルミニウムケイ酸塩は、アルミニウムとケイ素とを含む酸化物塩である。アルミニウムとケイ素とを含む酸化物塩とすることにより、上述したイオン交換能を発揮し得る。本発明におけるアルミニウムケイ酸塩は、アルミニウムとケイ素とを含む酸化物塩であれば、特に制限はなく、他の金属元素を含むものであってもよい。本発明におけるアルミニウムケイ酸塩としては、例えば、アロフェン、カオリン、ゼオライト、サポナイト、モンモリロナイト、アタパルジャイト及びイモゴライトが挙げられる。

またイモゴライトは、金属イオン吸着能と金属イオン選択性の観点から、27Al-NMRスペクトルにおいて、3ppm近辺のピークに対する55ppm付近のピークの面積比率が、1%以上であることが好ましく、5%以上であることがより好ましく、10%以上であることが更に好ましい。

Line Broadening係数:50Hz
また-85ppm近辺に現れるピークBは、粘土構造のアルミニウムケイ酸塩又は非晶質構造のアルミニウムケイ酸塩と考えられる。したがって、-78ppm近辺及び-85ppm近辺にピークを有するイモゴライトは、結晶構造のイモゴライトと、粘土構造又は非晶質構造のイモゴライトとの混合物又は複合体であると推定される。
なお、上記各ピークの面積は、NMR測定装置に組み込まれた解析ソフトにより求めてもよい。
図3に示すように、イモゴライトは、粉末X線回折スペクトルにおいて、2θ=26.9°及び40.3°近辺にピークを有する。2θ=26.9°及び40.3°近辺のピークは、イモゴライトに由来するピークと推定される。
ここで、2θ=20°及び35°近辺のピークを有しないとは、2θ=20°及び35°近辺におけるベースラインからの変位がノイズレベル以下であることを意味し、具体的にはベースラインからの変位がノイズ幅の100%以下であることを意味する。
イモゴライトには、金属イオン吸着能と金属イオン選択性の観点から、透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)において100,000倍で観察したときに、長さ50nm以上の管状物が存在していないことが好ましい。
イモゴライトを合成する場合、本発明におけるイモゴライトの製造方法は、ケイ酸イオンを含む溶液及びアルミニウムイオンを含む溶液を混合して反応生成物を得る工程と、前記反応生成物を、水性媒体中、酸の存在下で熱処理する工程と、を有し、必要に応じてその他の工程を有することができる。得られるイモゴライトの収率、構造体形成等の観点から、少なくとも熱処理する工程の後、好ましくは、熱処理工程の前及び後で、脱塩及び固体分離を行う洗浄工程を有することが好ましい。
反応生成物であるイモゴライトを含む溶液から共存イオンを脱塩処理した後に、酸の存在下で熱処理することで、金属イオン吸着能に優れるイモゴライトを効率よく製造することができる傾向にある。共存イオンとしては、ナトリウムイオン、塩化物イオン、過塩素酸イオン、硝酸イオン、硫酸イオン等が挙げられる。
これは、例えば、以下のように考えることができる。規則的な構造の形成を阻害する共存イオンが除去されたイモゴライトを、酸の存在下で熱処理することで、規則的な構造を有するイモゴライトが形成される。イモゴライトが規則的な構造を有することで、金属イオンに対する親和性が向上し、効率よく金属イオンを吸着できると考えることができる。
反応生成物を得る工程では、ケイ酸イオンを含む溶液と、アルミニウムイオンを含む溶液とを混合して、イモゴライト及び共存イオンを含む反応生成物を含有する混合溶液を得る。
イモゴライトを製造する際、原料には、ケイ酸イオン及びアルミニウムイオンが必要となる。ケイ酸イオンを含む溶液(以下、「ケイ酸溶液」ともいう)を構成するケイ酸源としては、溶媒和した際にケイ酸イオンが生じるものであれば特に制限されない。ケイ酸源としては、オルトケイ酸ナトリウム、メタケイ酸ナトリウム、テトラエトキシシラン等のテトラアルコキシシランなどが挙げられるが、これらに限定されるものではない。
また、アルミニウムイオンを含む溶液(以下、「アルミニウム溶液」ともいう)を構成するアルミニウム源は、溶媒和した際にアルミニウムイオンが生じるものであれば特に制限されない。アルミニウム源としては、塩化アルミニウム、過塩素酸アルミニウム、硝酸アルミニウム、硫酸アルミニウム、アルミニウムsec-ブトキシド等が挙げられるが、これらに限定されるものではない。
これらの原料をそれぞれ溶媒に溶解させて原料溶液(ケイ酸溶液及びアルミニウム溶液)を調製した後、原料溶液を互いに混合して混合溶液を得る。このとき、特定の元素モル比Si/Alを有するイモゴライトを得るためには、混合溶液中のSi及びAlの元素モル比Si/Alを、得られるイモゴライトにおけるSi及びAlの元素モル比Si/Alに合わせて調整すればよく、例えば、0.3以上1.0以下となるように調整し、好ましくは0.3以上1.0未満となるように調整し、より好ましくは0.4~0.6となるように調整し、更に好ましくは0.45~0.55となるように調整する。元素モル比Si/Alを0.3以上1.0未満とすることで、所望の規則的な構造を有するイモゴライトが合成され易くなる。
ケイ酸溶液のケイ素原子濃度が1mmol/L以上であると、生産性が向上し、効率よく所望のイモゴライトを製造することができる。またケイ素原子濃度が1000mmol/L以下であると、ケイ素原子濃度に応じて生産性がより向上する。
アルミニウム溶液のアルミニウム原子濃度が100mmol/L以上であると、生産性がより向上し、効率よく所望のイモゴライトを製造することができる。またアルミニウム原子濃度が1000mmol/L以下であると、アルミニウム原子濃度に応じて生産性がより向上する。
ケイ酸イオンを含む溶液とアルミニウムイオンを含む溶液とを混合し、得られた混合溶液に、共存イオンを含むイモゴライトを反応生成物として生成させた後、生成した共存イオンを含むイモゴライトを脱塩及び固体分離する第一洗浄工程を行う。第一洗浄工程では、混合溶液中から共存イオンの少なくとも一部を除去して混合溶液中の共存イオン濃度を低下させる。第一洗浄工程を行うことで、合成工程において所望のイモゴライトを形成し易くなる。
分散液の電気伝導率が4.0S/m以下であると、合成工程において所望のアルミニウムケイ酸塩がより形成しやすくなる傾向がある。
なお、電気伝導率は、株式会社堀場製作所:F-55及び同社の一般的な電気伝導率セル:9382-10Dを用いて、常温(25℃)で測定される。
例えば、第一洗浄工程を、遠心分離を用いて行う場合、以下のようにして行うことができる。分散物にアルカリ等を加えてpHを5~8に調整する。pHを調整した後の分散物を遠心分離した後、上澄み溶液を排出してゲル状沈殿物として固体分離する。固体分離されたものを溶媒に再分散させる。その際、分散物の容積を、例えば溶媒を用いて遠心分離前と同じ容積に戻すことが好ましい。再分散させた分散液を同様にして遠心分離して脱塩及び固体分離する操作を繰り返すことで、共存イオンの濃度を所定の濃度以下にすることができる。
合成工程では、水性媒体中、酸の存在下で、第一洗浄工程で得られた固体分離物の熱処理を行う。
第一洗浄工程において得られた、共存イオンの濃度を低減させたイモゴライトを含む溶液(分散液)を、酸の存在下で熱処理することで、規則的な構造を有する所望のイモゴライトを形成することができる。
合成工程を希薄溶液中で行うことで、規則的な構造が管状に伸展した構造を有するイモゴライト(以下、「第一のイモゴライト」ともいう)を得ることができる。また合成工程を高濃度溶液中で行うことで、規則的な構造に加えて粘土構造及び非晶質構造を有するイモゴライト(以下、「第二のイモゴライト」ともいう)を得ることができる。なお、第二のイモゴライトは、長さ50nm以上の管状物に成長するのに代えて、粘土構造及び非晶質構造の形成が増大しているものと推測される。
第一及び第二のいずれのイモゴライトも特定の規則的な構造を有することにより、優れた金属イオン吸着能を示す。
希釈条件として、ケイ素原子濃度を20mmol/L以下且つアルミニウム原子濃度を60mmol/L以下とすることで、第一のイモゴライトをより効率よく製造することができる傾向にある。
なお、第一のイモゴライトの合成では、希薄溶液で行うため反応が進みにくい場合があり、仕込み量のSi/Al比と、得られるイモゴライトのSi/Al比とが異なる場合がある。その場合には、所望の比率よりも原料のケイ素原子量を少な目に仕込むことによって、所望のSi/Al比を有するイモゴライトが得られる傾向がある。
濃度条件として、ケイ素原子濃度を100mmol/L以上且つアルミニウム原子濃度を100mmol/L以上とすることで、第二のイモゴライトをより効率よく製造することができ、更にアルミニウムケイ酸塩の生産性もより向上する。
また、ケイ素原子濃度及びアルミニウム原子濃度は、ICP発光分光装置(例えば、株式会社日立製作所、ICP発光分光装置:P-4010)を用いて、定法により測定される。
熱処理の温度は特に制限されない。所望のイモゴライトを効率よく得る観点から、熱処理の温度は80℃~160℃であることが好ましい。
熱処理の温度が160℃以下であると、ベーマイト(水酸化アルミニウム)が析出することを抑制することができる傾向がある。また熱処理の温度が80℃以上であると、所望のアルミニウムケイ酸塩の合成速度が向上し、より効率よく所望のイモゴライトを製造できる傾向がある。
合成工程において熱処理して得られた生成物は、第二洗浄工程において脱塩及び固体分離に供される。これにより優れた金属イオン吸着能を有するイモゴライトを得ることができる傾向がある。これは、例えば、以下のように考えることができる。すなわち合成工程において熱処理して得られた生成物は、イモゴライトの吸着サイトが共存イオンで塞がれている場合があり、期待する程の金属イオン吸着能は得られない場合がある。そのため、合成工程で得られた生成物としてのイモゴライトから共存イオンの少なくとも一部を、脱塩及び固体分離することにより除去する第二洗浄工程を行うことにより、優れた金属イオン吸着能を有する所望のイモゴライトを得ることができると考えることができる。
第二洗浄工程は、共存イオンの濃度が所定の濃度以下になるように行うことが好ましい。ここで共存イオンの濃度としては、例えば、第二洗浄工程で得られる固体分離されたものを、濃度が60g/Lとなるように純水に分散させた場合、500mmol/L以下とすることができる。このような共存イオン濃度とするには、具体的には例えば、第二洗浄工程で得られる固体分離されたものを、濃度が60g/Lとなるように純水に分散させた場合に、その分散液の電気伝導率が4.0S/m以下となるよう洗浄をに行うことが好ましく、1.0mS/m~3.0S/mとなるように行うことがより好ましく、1.0mS/m~2.0S/mとなるように行うことが更に好ましい。
分散液の電気伝導率が4.0S/m以下であると、より優れた金属イオン吸着能を有するイモゴライトが得られやすくなる傾向がある。
なお、塩化物イオン濃度及びナトリウムイオン濃度は、イオンクロマトグラフィー(例えば、日本ダイオネクス株式会社、DX-320及びDX-100)により通常の条件で測定される。
また、イモゴライトの分散物の濃度は、固体分離されたものを110℃、24時間乾燥して得られる固体の質量を基準とする。
本発明に係るアルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体では、アルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に、炭素が配置される。配置される炭素は、アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体の表面の少なくとも一部又は全部に配置される。
図7では、炭素40がアルミニウムケイ酸塩50の表面全体を被覆している。図8では、炭素40がアルミニウムケイ酸塩50の表面全体を被覆しているが、炭素40の厚みにばらつきがある。また、図9では、炭素40がアルミニウムケイ酸塩50の表面に部分的に存在し、アルミニウムケイ酸塩50の表面には、炭素40で覆われていない部分がある。図10では、アルミニウムケイ酸塩50の表面に、アルミニウムケイ酸塩50よりも小さい粒径を有する炭素40の粒子が存在している。図11は、図10の変形例であり、炭素40の粒子形状が鱗片状となっている。なお、図7~図11では、アルミニウムケイ酸塩50の形状は、模式的に球状(断面形状としては円)で表されているが、球状、ブロック状、鱗片状、断面形状が多角形の形状(角のある形状)等のいずれであってもよい。
また、微細なアルミニウムケイ酸塩が集合、結合又は凝集して粒子を形成している場合、粒子表面の少なくとも一部又は全部に炭素が配置されていればよく、集合、結合又凝集によって粒子内部に細孔を有する場合、細孔内の一部又は全部に炭素が配置されていてもよい。
すなわち、アルミニウムケイ酸塩の内部の状態は、試料を熱硬化性樹脂(エポキシ樹脂)に埋め込み硬化して成形加工した後、機械的に研磨することでアルミニウムケイ酸塩の内部を露出させ、内部にあたる部分を走査型電子顕微鏡(SEM)で観察することで確認することができる。アルミニウムケイ酸塩の内部に炭素が配置されているか否かは、上記のSEMから、エネルギー分散型X線分光法(EDX)にて確認することができる。
アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体における炭素含有比率は、0.1質量%~50質量%であることが好ましい。炭素含有比率が0.1質量%以上であれば、アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体の吸着水量がより低減する傾向があり、導電率がより向上する傾向がある。50質量%以下であれば、アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体の金属イオン吸着能をより有効に活用できる傾向がある。アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体における炭素含有比率は、0.5質量%~40質量%であることがより好ましく、1質量%~30質量%であることが更に好ましい。
アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体における炭素含有比率は、示差熱-熱重量分析装置(TG-DTA)を用いて、20℃/分の昇温速度で、800℃、20分保持での質量減少率にて測定される。
なお、R値は、ラマンスペクトル測定装置(例えば、日本分光株式会社、NSR-1000型、励起波長532nm)を用い、測定範囲(830cm-1~1940cm-1)全体をベースラインとしてラマンスペクトル解析から求めることができる。
粉体抵抗率は、粉体抵抗測定システム(例えば、株式会社三菱化学アナリテック、ロレスターGP)を用いて、3842N/cm2(382Kgf/cm2)の圧力にて測定した体積抵抗率の値とする。
具体的には、アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体を、水等の分散媒に分散させて分散液を調製する。この分散液について、レーザー回折式粒度分布測定装置を用いて小径側から体積累積分布曲線を描いた場合に、累積50%となる粒子径(D50)を体積平均粒子径として求める。
なお、本明細書中の「体積平均粒子径」については、いずれも上記方法に従って測定した値を用いる。

(5)BET比表面積が250m2/g以上である。
(6)水分含有率が10質量%以下である。
アルミニウムケイ酸塩複合体の製造方法は、アルミニウムケイ酸塩を得る工程と、得られたアルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に炭素を付与する炭素付与工程とを含み、必要に応じて他の工程を含む。
アルミニウムケイ酸塩を得る工程は、炭素を付与する対象となるアルミニウムケイ酸塩を得ることができればよく、アルミニウムケイ酸塩を準備することを含む工程であってもよく、ケイ酸源とアルミニウム源とからアルミニウムケイ酸塩を製造することを含む工程であってもよい。アルミニウムケイ酸塩を製造する方法については、各種アルミニウムケイ酸塩に関して既述した方法を適用し得る。アルミニウムケイ酸塩を準備することとしては、市販品等を入手してそのまま用いることが挙げられる。
炭素付与工程では、アルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に炭素を付与する。これにより、アルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に炭素が配置される。アルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に炭素を付与する方法としては、特に制限はなく、湿式混合法、乾式混合法、化学蒸着法等の方法が挙げられる。アルミニウムケイ酸塩の表面に付与される炭素の厚みを揃えやすく、かつ反応系の制御が容易で、大気圧下での処理が可能であるという点から、湿式混合法(「湿式法」ということがある)又は乾式混合法(「気相法」ということがある)が好ましい。
炭素源の溶液又は分散液における炭素源の含有率は、分散のし易さの観点から0.01質量%~30質量%であることが好ましく、0.05質量%~20質量%であることがより好ましく、0.1質量%~10質量%であることが更に好ましい。アルミニウムケイ酸塩と炭素源との混合比(アルミニウムケイ酸塩:炭素源)としては、金属イオン吸着能と、より低い吸着水量との両立、又は金属イオン吸着能と導電性との両立の観点から、質量比で100:1~100:500であることが好ましく、100:5~100:300であることがより好ましい。
アルミニウムケイ酸塩と炭素源とを固体同士で混合する際のアルミニウムケイ酸塩と炭素源との混合比(アルミニウムケイ酸塩:炭素源)としては、金属イオン吸着能と、より低い吸着水量との両立の観点から、質量比で100:1~100:500であることが好ましく、100:5~100:300であることがより好ましい。
