More specifically, the present invention relates to a fine silver particle having a fine and high dispersibility suitable as a paste component used as a wiring material or an electrode material of an electronic device, and a method for producing the same.

近年、電子機器の高機能化を図るために、電子デバイスの小型化と高密度化が要請されており、配線および電極のファイン化を達成するために、これらを形成するペースト材料に用いられる銀微粒子についても、より微細で高分散性の微粒子が求められている。   In recent years, there has been a demand for miniaturization and high density of electronic devices in order to improve the functionality of electronic equipment. In order to achieve finer wiring and electrodes, silver used as a paste material for forming them As for the fine particles, finer and highly dispersible fine particles are required.

従来、電子機器材料に用いられる銀微粒子の製造方法として、銀塩のアンミン錯体を還元して銀微粒子を沈澱させ、これを洗浄乾燥して平均粒径が数μm程度の銀微粒子を得る方法が知られている。例えば、特開平8−134513号公報には、銀アンミン錯体を還元して銀微粒子を析出させる際に、還元時の液温を25〜60℃に調整して微細な銀粒子を製造する方法が記載されている(特許文献1)。   Conventionally, as a method for producing silver fine particles used in electronic device materials, there is a method of obtaining silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of about several μm by reducing silver salt ammine complexes to precipitate silver fine particles, and washing and drying them. Are known. For example, JP-A-8-134513 discloses a method for producing fine silver particles by reducing the silver ammine complex to precipitate silver fine particles and adjusting the liquid temperature during the reduction to 25 to 60 ° C. (Patent Document 1).

また、特開2001−107101号公報には、硝酸銀溶液にアンモニア水を添加して銀アンミン錯体溶液を形成した後に、還元剤を添加する際に、還元剤を20秒以内に混合することによってBET比表面積0.25m2/g以上の微細銀粒子を析出させる方法が記載されている(特許文献2)。さらに、銀アンミン錯体水溶液が流れる流路の途中に有機還元剤溶液を合流させることによって、管路内で銀を還元して結晶子径の小さい銀微粒子を製造する方法が知られている(特許文献3、4)。

Silver fine particles of 5 to 0.5 μm can be precipitated. In addition, (ii) the silver hydrazine ratio can be adjusted to 3.0 × 10 −5 to 4.2 × 10 −2 to precipitate silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of 0.5 to 0.1 μm. Furthermore, (iii) the silver hydrazine ratio can be adjusted to 4.2 × 10 −2 to 5.0 × 10 −1 to precipitate silver fine particles having an average particle size of 0.1 to 0.05 μm.

〔水洗浄工程〕
析出した銀微粒子を固液分離して水洗浄した後に、さらにアルカリ液、水溶液強還元液、またはアミド系溶剤を用いて洗浄する。具体的には、例えば、析出銀微粒子の分散液を遠心分離して上澄み液を除去した後に、イオン交換水を加えて振盪洗浄し、遠心分離して上澄み液を除去する水洗浄操作を数回、例えば5回前後繰り返し、上澄み液が無色透明になるまで十分に水洗浄を行う。
[Water washing process]
The precipitated silver fine particles are solid-liquid separated and washed with water, and then further washed with an alkaline solution, an aqueous strong reducing solution, or an amide solvent. Specifically, for example, after centrifuging the dispersion of precipitated silver fine particles to remove the supernatant, ion-exchanged water is added for shaking washing, and centrifugation is performed to remove the supernatant for several times. For example, it is repeated about 5 times, and the supernatant is sufficiently washed with water until the supernatant becomes colorless and transparent.

〔薬液洗浄工程〕
水洗浄の後に、アルカリ液、水溶液強還元液、またはアミド系溶剤を用いて薬液洗浄を行う。アルカリ液としては、NaOH、KOH、Ca(OH)2、NH3を用いることができる。水溶性還元液としては、N22、NaBH4、KBH4、BH3NH(CH3)2を用いることができる。アミド系溶剤としては、N,N−ジメチルアセトアミド、ジメチルホルムアミド、N−メチルピロリドン、アセトアミドなどを用いることができる。
[Chemical solution cleaning process]
After the water cleaning, chemical cleaning is performed using an alkaline solution, an aqueous strong reducing solution, or an amide solvent. As the alkaline solution, NaOH, KOH, Ca (OH) 2 , NH 3 can be used. As the water-soluble reducing solution, N 2 H 2 , NaBH 4 , KBH 4 , BH 3 NH (CH 3 ) 2 can be used. As the amide solvent, N, N-dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, acetamide and the like can be used.

水酸化アルカリ溶液の濃度0.01〜20wt%、アンモニア水の濃度0.1〜30wt%、ヒドラジンの濃度1〜60%、水素化ホウ素アルカリ塩の濃度1.0〜10wt%、BH3NH(CH3)2の濃度1.0〜5wt%、N,N−ジメチルアセトアミドの濃度5〜100wt%、ジメチルホルムアミドの濃度5〜100wt%、N−メチルピロリドンの濃度5〜100wt%、アセトアミドの濃度5〜100wt%が適当である。 Concentration of alkali hydroxide solution 0.01-20 wt%, ammonia water concentration 0.1-30 wt%, hydrazine concentration 1-60%, alkali borohydride concentration 1.0-10 wt%, BH 3 NH ( CH 3 ) 2 concentration 1.0 to 5 wt%, N, N-dimethylacetamide concentration 5 to 100 wt%, dimethylformamide concentration 5 to 100 wt%, N-methylpyrrolidone concentration 5 to 100 wt%, acetamide concentration 5 ˜100 wt% is suitable.

水洗浄した銀微粒子に上記薬液を加えて振盪洗浄し、遠心分離して上澄み液を除去する操作を繰り返し、上澄み液の着色状態を観察して洗浄状態を確認する。従来の銀微粒子は水洗浄において上澄み液が無色透明でも、上記薬液を用いた洗浄行うことによって、銀微粒子に付着している有機物が洗浄除去され、薬液洗浄による上澄み液が着色する。この薬液洗浄の上澄み液が無色透明になるまで洗浄操作を繰り返すことによって、有機物汚染の少ない高品位の銀微粒子を得ることができる。   The above chemical solution is added to the silver fine particles washed with water, washed with shaking, centrifuged, and the operation of removing the supernatant is repeated. The colored state of the supernatant is observed to confirm the washing state. Even if the conventional silver fine particles have a supernatant that is colorless and transparent in water washing, washing with the above chemical solution removes organic substances adhering to the silver fine particles and colors the supernatant liquid by the chemical washing. By repeating the washing operation until the supernatant obtained by this chemical washing is colorless and transparent, high-quality silver fine particles with little organic contamination can be obtained.

具体的には、例えば、市販時の銀微粒子の場合、単位表面積あたり(BET比表面m2あたり)炭素含有量2.2〜5mg/m2程度であるが、上記薬液洗浄を行うことによって、上記単位表面積あたりの炭素含有量を2.0mg/m2以下に低減することができる。 Specifically, for example, in the case of commercially available silver fine particles, the carbon content per unit surface area (per BET specific surface m 2 ) is about 2.2 to 5 mg / m 2 , but by performing the above chemical cleaning, The carbon content per unit surface area can be reduced to 2.0 mg / m 2 or less.

以下に本発明の実施例を比較例と共に示す。
〔実施例〕
市販の銀微粒子(体積平均粒径0.8μm、単位表面積あたりの炭素含有量2.6/m2)50gにイオン交換水400mlを加えて3分間浸透した後に、遠心分離器(株式会社コクサン社製品:H-7000S)に入れ、2000Gで5分間遠心分離処理し、上澄み液を除去する操作を繰り返し、上澄み液が無色透明になるまで水洗浄を行った。次いで、水洗浄した銀微粒子に、表1に示す薬液を加えて振盪洗浄し、遠心分離して上澄み液を除去する操作を繰り返し、上澄み液が無色透明になるまで薬液洗浄を行った。薬液洗浄後の銀微粒子について炭素含有量を測定した。この結果を表1に示した。
なお、炭素量の測定は燃焼−赤外線吸収法に従って行った。
表1に示すように、薬液洗浄後の単位表面積あたりの炭素含有量は何れも2.0mg/m2以下であり、洗浄前の炭素含有量に比べて大幅に炭素量が低減されている。
Examples of the present invention are shown below together with comparative examples.

Product: H-7000S), centrifuged at 2000 G for 5 minutes, and the operation of removing the supernatant was repeated, and the supernatant was washed with water until the supernatant became colorless and transparent. Subsequently, the chemical solution shown in Table 1 was added to the silver fine particles washed with water, washed with shaking, centrifuged, and the operation of removing the supernatant was repeated. The chemical solution was washed until the supernatant became colorless and transparent. The carbon content of the silver fine particles after chemical cleaning was measured.
