Description
本発明は、低温焼成が可能な導電性組成物の原料用として好適な、多結晶化された平均粒子径30〜100nmの銀微粒子とその製造法並びに該銀微粒子を含有する導電性ペースト、導電性膜及び電子デバイスに関する。 The present invention relates to a polycrystallized silver fine particle having an average particle size of 30 to 100 nm suitable for use as a raw material for a conductive composition capable of low-temperature firing, a method for producing the same, a conductive paste containing the silver fine particle, and conductive The present invention relates to a conductive film and an electronic device.
電子デバイスの電極や回路パターンの形成は、金属粒子を含む導電性ペーストを用いて基板上に電極や回路パターンを印刷した後、加熱焼成して導電性ペーストに含まれる金属粒子を焼結させることにより行われているが、近年、その加熱焼成温度は低温化する傾向にある。 The electrodes and circuit patterns of electronic devices are formed by printing electrodes and circuit patterns on a substrate using a conductive paste containing metal particles, and then baking by heating and sintering the metal particles contained in the conductive paste. However, in recent years, the heating and baking temperature tends to be lowered.
例えば、電子デバイスの実装基板としては、一般に、300℃程度までの加熱が可能であるためポリイミド製フレキシブル基板が用いられているが、耐熱性に優れるものの高価であるため、最近では、より安価なPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)基板やPEN(ポリエチレンナフタレート)基板が代替材料として検討されている。しかしながら、PET基板やPEN基板はポリイミド製フレキシブル基板と比較して耐熱性が低く、加熱焼成を200℃以下で行う必要がある。 For example, as a mounting substrate for an electronic device, a polyimide flexible substrate is generally used because it can be heated up to about 300 ° C. However, since it is excellent in heat resistance but is expensive, recently, it is more inexpensive. A PET (polyethylene terephthalate) substrate and a PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) substrate have been studied as alternative materials. However, PET substrates and PEN substrates have lower heat resistance than polyimide flexible substrates, and it is necessary to carry out heating and baking at 200 ° C. or lower.
また、加熱焼成を200℃より更に低い温度で行うことができれば、ポリカーボネートや紙等の基板への電極や回路パターンの形成も可能となり、各種電極材等の用途が広がることが期待される。 Moreover, if heating and baking can be performed at a temperature lower than 200 ° C., it becomes possible to form electrodes and circuit patterns on a substrate such as polycarbonate and paper, and it is expected that applications of various electrode materials and the like will be expanded.
このような低温焼成が可能な導電性ペーストの原料となる金属粒子として、ナノメートルオーダーの銀微粒子が期待されている。その理由として、金属粒子の大きさがナノメートルオーダーになると表面活性が高くなり、融点が金属のバルクのものよりもはるかに低下するため、低い温度で焼結させることが可能になるためである。また、金属粒子の中でも銀微粒子は低抵抗であり、価格も他の貴金属と比較して安価であることが挙げられる。 Nanometer-order silver fine particles are expected as metal particles that can be used as a raw material for conductive paste that can be fired at such a low temperature. The reason for this is that when the size of the metal particles is on the order of nanometers, the surface activity becomes high and the melting point is much lower than that of the bulk metal, so that it can be sintered at a low temperature. . Among metal particles, silver fine particles have low resistance, and the price is low compared with other noble metals.
また、ナノメートルオーダーの銀微粒子は低温で焼結が可能であると共に、一度焼結すると耐熱性が維持されるという、従来のはんだにはない性質を利用した鉛フリーのはんだ代替材料としても期待されている。 In addition, nanometer-order silver fine particles can be sintered at low temperatures, and heat resistance is maintained once sintered, which is also expected as a lead-free solder replacement material using a property not found in conventional solder. Has been.
これまでに、低温焼成が可能な銀微粒子として、サブミクロン以下の銀微粒子が提案されており、ヘキシルアミンを表面に吸着させた平均粒子径(DTEM)3〜20nmの銀微粉(特許文献1)、粒子表面が有機保護剤で覆われた平均粒子径(DTEM)が50nm以下であり、単結晶化度(DTEM/DX)が2.0以下である銀粒子(特許文献2)、平均粒子径が40〜100nmであり、単結晶化度(DTEM/DX)が1〜5である銀微粒子(特許文献3)、粒子表面に硝酸銀のアンミン錯体及びアミンが1wt%以下付着している平均粒子径が20〜100nmである銀微粒子(特許文献4)、表面処理剤によって被覆された、平均粒子径が200nm未満、BET比表面積が1.0m2/g以上である貴金属微粒子(特許文献5)、可溶性金属を1%未満含有する平均粒子径が50〜100nm、BET比表面積が6〜25m2/gであるナノ粉末(特許文献6)等が知られている。 Until now, silver fine particles of submicron or less have been proposed as silver fine particles that can be fired at low temperature, and silver fine powder having an average particle diameter (D TEM ) of 3 to 20 nm in which hexylamine is adsorbed on the surface (Patent Document 1). ), Silver particles having an average particle diameter (D TEM ) of 50 nm or less and a single crystallinity (D TEM / D X ) of 2.0 or less with the particle surface covered with an organic protective agent (Patent Document 2) Silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of 40 to 100 nm and a single crystallinity (D TEM / D X ) of 1 to 5 (Patent Document 3), and silver nitrate ammine complex and amine adhere to 1 wt% or less on the particle surface. and fine silver particles the average particle size is is 20 to 100 nm (Patent Document 4), coated with a surface treatment agent, average particle size of less than 200 nm, the noble metal particles BET specific surface area of 1.0 m 2 / g or more Patent Document 5), the average particle diameter containing a soluble metal less than 1% 50 to 100 nm, nano powder (Patent Document 6) are known BET specific surface area of 6~25m 2 / g.
銀微粒子が低温で焼結するためには、銀微粒子が活性であることが必要であるが、前出特許文献1に開示されているような平均粒子サイズが20nm以下の銀微粒子の場合、活性が高すぎて不安定あるため多量の有機物で被覆する必要がある。特許文献1では、被覆物質として沸点が130℃程度のヘキシルアミンを用いているが、たとえ比較的沸点が低い被覆物質を選択したとしても多量に付着している被覆物を完全に除去することは困難である。また、特許文献1では銀微粒子を製造する上で50〜60℃の温度をかけているので、銀微粒子の結晶子径は大きくなる傾向にあるため銀微粒子内部の反応性としては低いものとなり、低温焼結には不利となる。 In order for the silver fine particles to sinter at a low temperature, the silver fine particles need to be active. However, in the case of silver fine particles having an average particle size of 20 nm or less as disclosed in Patent Document 1, the silver fine particles are active. Is too high and unstable, so it must be coated with a large amount of organic matter. In Patent Document 1, hexylamine having a boiling point of about 130 ° C. is used as the coating material, but even if a coating material having a relatively low boiling point is selected, it is impossible to completely remove the coating material adhering to a large amount. Have difficulty. In addition, in Patent Document 1, since a temperature of 50 to 60 ° C. is applied to produce silver fine particles, the crystallite diameter of the silver fine particles tends to increase, so the reactivity inside the silver fine particles is low, This is disadvantageous for low temperature sintering.
また、前出特許文献2には、粒子表面が有機保護剤で覆われた平均粒子径(DTEM)が50nm以下であり、単結晶化度(DTEM/DX)が2.0以下である銀粒子が記載されているが、前述と同様、(DTEM/DX)が2.0以下であり単結晶化度が高いものであるため、銀微粒子内部の反応性としては低いものとなり、低温焼結には不利となる。 Patent Document 2 supra, the average particle size the particle surface was covered with an organic protective agent (D TEM) is not less 50nm or less, the single crystallinity (D TEM / D X) is 2.0 or less Although certain silver particles are described, (D TEM / D X ) is 2.0 or less and the single crystallinity is high as described above, so the reactivity inside the silver fine particles is low. This is disadvantageous for low temperature sintering.
また、前出特許文献3には、平均粒子径が40〜100nmであり、単結晶化度(DTEM/DX)が1〜5である銀微粒子が記載されているが、銀微粒子を製造する上で40℃前後に温度を調整しているので、銀微粒子の結晶子径は大きくなる傾向にある。そのため銀微粒子内部の反応性としては低いものとなり、低温焼結には不利となる。 Moreover, although the above-mentioned patent document 3 describes silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of 40 to 100 nm and a single crystallinity (D TEM / D X ) of 1 to 5, silver fine particles are produced. Therefore, since the temperature is adjusted to around 40 ° C., the crystallite diameter of the silver fine particles tends to increase. Therefore, the reactivity inside the silver fine particles is low, which is disadvantageous for low-temperature sintering.
また、前出特許文献4には、粒子表面に硝酸銀のアンミン錯体及びアミンが1wt%以下付着している平均粒子径が20〜100nmである銀微粒子が記載されているが、還元反応における反応温度については考慮なされておらず、また、40℃に加熱して乾燥しているために結晶粒径が大きくなる傾向にあるため、銀微粒子内部の反応性としては低いものとなり、低温焼結には不利となる。 Further, in the aforementioned Patent Document 4, silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of 20 to 100 nm in which 1 wt% or less of silver nitrate ammine complex and amine are adhered to the particle surface are described. Is not taken into account, and since the crystal grain size tends to increase because it is heated to 40 ° C. and dried, the reactivity inside the silver fine particles is low. Disadvantageous.
また、前出特許文献5には、表面処理剤によって被覆された、平均粒子径が200nm未満、BET比表面積が1.0m2/g以上である貴金属微粒子が記載されているが、粒子表面を被覆する表面処理剤はいずれも高沸点の物質であるため、特許文献5の実施例においても200℃の加熱条件では表面処理剤が残っており、低温焼結を目的とした導電性ペーストの原料に用いることは困難である。また、BET比表面積値が粒子サイズに対して小さく表面活性が低いため、低温焼結には不利となる。 Further, in the aforementioned Patent Document 5, noble metal fine particles coated with a surface treatment agent and having an average particle diameter of less than 200 nm and a BET specific surface area of 1.0 m 2 / g or more are described. Since the surface treatment agent to be coated is a high-boiling substance, even in the examples of Patent Document 5, the surface treatment agent remains under the heating condition of 200 ° C., and the raw material for the conductive paste intended for low-temperature sintering. It is difficult to use. Further, since the BET specific surface area value is small with respect to the particle size and the surface activity is low, it is disadvantageous for low temperature sintering.
また、前出特許文献6には、可溶性金属を1%未満含有する平均粒子径が50〜100nm、BET比表面積が6〜25m2/gであるナノ粉末が記載されているが、製法由来の可溶性金属を含有しており、特許文献6に示されるナノ粉末を用いて得られた焼結体には導電性を阻害する不純物金属が含まれるため、所望の高い導電性を有する焼結体を得ることが困難である。また、存在する可溶性金属によって焼結が阻害されるため、低温で焼結させることが困難である。 In addition, the above-mentioned Patent Document 6 describes a nanopowder having an average particle diameter of less than 1% containing a soluble metal of 50 to 100 nm and a BET specific surface area of 6 to 25 m 2 / g. Since the sintered body containing the soluble metal and obtained by using the nanopowder shown in Patent Document 6 contains an impurity metal that impedes conductivity, a sintered body having a desired high conductivity can be obtained. It is difficult to obtain. In addition, it is difficult to sinter at a low temperature because the existing soluble metal inhibits the sintering.
そこで、本発明は、低温焼成が可能な導電性ペーストの原料用として好適な、平均粒子径30〜100nmである多結晶化された銀微粒子を提供することを技術的課題とする。 In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide polycrystallized silver fine particles having an average particle diameter of 30 to 100 nm, which is suitable for use as a raw material for conductive paste that can be fired at a low temperature.

This is the silver fine particle of the present invention 1 (Invention 2).

また、本発明は、硝酸銀と、水溶性あるいは水可溶性であって沸点が200℃以下のアミンの1種類以上とを用いて調製した硝酸銀のアミン錯体のアルコール溶液を、アスコルビン酸又はエリソルビン酸を溶解させた水−アルコール混合溶媒中に添加して還元析出させ、得られた銀微粒子を分離・洗浄した後、温度30℃以下で真空乾燥により銀微粒子を乾燥させることを特徴とする本発明1乃至本発明3のいずれかに記載の銀微粒子の製造方法である(本発明4)。 The present invention also provides an alcohol solution of an amine complex of silver nitrate prepared using silver nitrate and one or more amines having a water-soluble or water-soluble boiling point of 200 ° C. or lower, and dissolving ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid. The present invention is characterized in that the silver fine particles are dried by vacuum drying at a temperature of 30 ° C. or lower after the resulting silver fine particles are separated and washed by being added to the water-alcohol mixed solvent reduced and precipitated. It is a manufacturing method of the silver fine particle in any one of this invention 3 (this invention 4).

また、本発明は、本発明6の導電性膜を有する電子デバイスである(本発明7)。 Moreover, this invention is an electronic device which has the electroconductive film of this invention 6 (this invention 7).
本発明に係る銀微粒子は、平均粒子径30〜100nmであるためシングルナノオーダーの銀微粒子のように多量の有機物で表面を被覆する必要がなく、また、多結晶化度が2.8以上であることから粒子内部の活性が高いため、低温においても銀微粒子同士の焼結が進行するので、低温焼成が可能な導電性ペースト等の原料として好適である。 Since the silver fine particles according to the present invention have an average particle diameter of 30 to 100 nm, it is not necessary to cover the surface with a large amount of organic matter unlike the single nano-order silver fine particles, and the polycrystallinity is 2.8 or more. For this reason, since the activity inside the particles is high, the silver fine particles are sintered even at a low temperature, which is suitable as a raw material for a conductive paste that can be fired at a low temperature.
本発明の構成をより詳しく説明すれば、次の通りである。 The configuration of the present invention will be described in more detail as follows.
先ず、本発明に係る銀微粒子について述べる。 First, the silver fine particles according to the present invention will be described.
本発明に係る銀微粒子は、平均粒子径(DSEM)が30〜100nmであり、多結晶化度[平均粒子径(DSEM)と結晶子径(DX)の比(DSEM/DX)]が2.8以上であることを特徴とする。 The silver fine particles according to the present invention have an average particle diameter (D SEM ) of 30 to 100 nm, and a degree of polycrystallinity [ratio of average particle diameter (D SEM ) to crystallite diameter (D X ) (D SEM / D X )] Is 2.8 or more.
本発明に係る銀微粒子の平均粒子径(DSEM)は30〜100nmであり、好ましくは40〜100nm、より好ましくは50〜100nmである。平均粒子径(DSEM)が30nm未満の場合には、銀微粒子の持つ表面活性が高くなり、その微細な粒子径を安定に維持するために多量の有機物等を付着させる必要があるため好ましくない。また、平均粒子径(DSEM)が100nmを超える場合には、銀微粒子の持つ表面活性が低くなり、低温焼結性が損なわれてしまうため好ましくない。 The average particle diameter (D SEM ) of the silver fine particles according to the present invention is 30 to 100 nm, preferably 40 to 100 nm, more preferably 50 to 100 nm. When the average particle size (D SEM ) is less than 30 nm, the surface activity of the silver fine particles increases, and it is not preferable because a large amount of organic matter or the like needs to be adhered to maintain the fine particle size stably. . Moreover, when the average particle diameter (D SEM ) exceeds 100 nm, the surface activity of the silver fine particles is lowered, and the low-temperature sinterability is impaired.
本発明に係る銀微粒子の多結晶化度[平均粒子径(DSEM)と結晶子径(DX)の比(DSEM/DX)]は2.8以上であり、より好ましくは3.0以上、更により好ましくは3.2以上である。多結晶化度が2.8未満の場合には、銀微粒子中の結晶子径が大きくなり単結晶に近づくため銀微粒子中の反応性が低下し、低温焼結性が損なわれてしまうため好ましくない。前記多結晶化度の上限値は10程度であり、より好ましくは8程度である。 The polycrystallinity [the ratio of the average particle diameter (D SEM ) to the crystallite diameter (D X ) (D SEM / D X )] of the silver fine particles according to the present invention is 2.8 or more, more preferably 3. It is 0 or more, still more preferably 3.2 or more. When the degree of polycrystallinity is less than 2.8, the crystallite size in the silver fine particles becomes large and approaches a single crystal, so that the reactivity in the silver fine particles is lowered and the low-temperature sinterability is impaired. Absent. The upper limit of the polycrystallinity is about 10, more preferably about 8.
本発明に係る銀微粒子の加熱による結晶子径の変化率[(150℃で30分間加熱後の銀微粒子の結晶子径/加熱前の銀微粒子の結晶子径)×100]は、150%以上である。結晶子径の変化率が150%未満の場合には、低温焼結性が優れているとは言いがたい。本発明においては、120℃で30分間加熱した場合においても結晶子径の変化率は150%以上であることが好ましく、100℃で30分間加熱した場合においても同様に結晶子径の変化率は150%以上であることがより好ましい。 The rate of change of crystallite diameter by heating of silver fine particles according to the present invention [(crystallite diameter of silver fine particles after heating at 150 ° C. for 30 minutes / crystallite diameter of silver fine particles before heating) × 100] is 150% or more It is. When the change rate of the crystallite diameter is less than 150%, it cannot be said that the low-temperature sinterability is excellent. In the present invention, the rate of change in crystallite size is preferably 150% or more even when heated at 120 ° C. for 30 minutes, and the rate of change in crystallite size is also the same when heated at 100 ° C. for 30 minutes. More preferably, it is 150% or more.
本発明に係る銀微粒子のBET比表面積値(SSA)は、下記式(1)で表される範囲にある。BET比表面積値(SSA)が下記式(1)の範囲よりも小さい場合には、銀微粒子表面に多量の有機物が処理されていたりすることで表面活性が低下しているため、良好な低温焼結性を得ることが困難である。
SSA (m2/g) ≧ −0.05×DSEM+7.4 ・・・(1)
The BET specific surface area value (SSA) of the silver fine particles according to the present invention is in the range represented by the following formula (1). When the BET specific surface area value (SSA) is smaller than the range of the following formula (1), the surface activity is reduced due to the treatment of a large amount of organic substances on the surface of the silver fine particles. It is difficult to obtain cohesion.
SSA (m 2 /g)≧−0.05×D SEM +7.4 (1)
本発明に係る銀微粒子の粒子形状は、球状もしくは粒状が好ましい。 The particle shape of the silver fine particles according to the present invention is preferably spherical or granular.
本発明に係る銀微粒子の不純物金属は500ppm以下であることが好ましく、より好ましくは200ppm以下、更により好ましくは100ppm以下である。不純物金属の含有量が500ppmを超える場合には、これを用いて得られた焼結体には導電性を阻害する不純物金属が含まれるため、所望の高い導電性を有する焼結体を得ることが困難である。また、存在する不純物金属によって焼結が阻害されるため、低温で焼結させることが困難である。 The impurity metal of the silver fine particles according to the present invention is preferably 500 ppm or less, more preferably 200 ppm or less, and still more preferably 100 ppm or less. When the impurity metal content exceeds 500 ppm, the sintered body obtained by using this contains an impurity metal that impedes conductivity, so that a sintered body having a desired high conductivity is obtained. Is difficult. In addition, since the impurity metal present inhibits the sintering, it is difficult to sinter at a low temperature.
本発明に係る銀微粒子は、上記特性を満たす範囲であれば、表面処理をされていても構わない。表面処理剤としては、沸点が200℃以下のアルコールもしくはアミンが好ましい。アルコールとしては、エタノール、プロパノール、ブタノール、ペンタノール、ヘキサノール、ヘプタノール、オクタノール、エチレングリコール等を用いることができる。また、アミンとしてはアンモニア、メチルアミン、エチルアミン、プロピルアミン、ブチルアミン、モノエタノールアミン等を用いることができる。 The silver fine particles according to the present invention may be surface-treated as long as they satisfy the above characteristics. As the surface treating agent, alcohol or amine having a boiling point of 200 ° C. or less is preferable.

次に、本発明に係る銀微粒子の製造方法について述べる。 Next, a method for producing silver fine particles according to the present invention will be described.
本発明に係る銀微粒子は、硝酸銀と、水溶性あるいは水可溶性であって沸点が200℃以下のアミンの1種類以上とを用いて調製した硝酸銀のアミン錯体のアルコール溶液を、アスコルビン酸又はエリソルビン酸を溶解させた水−アルコール混合溶媒中に添加して還元析出させ、得られた銀微粒子を分離・洗浄した後、温度30℃以下で真空乾燥により銀微粒子を乾燥させることで得ることができる。 Silver fine particles according to the present invention are prepared by using an alcohol solution of an amine complex of silver nitrate prepared using silver nitrate and one or more amines having a water-soluble or water-soluble boiling point of 200 ° C. or lower, ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid. It can be obtained by reducing and precipitating by adding it in a water-alcohol mixed solvent in which is dissolved, separating and washing the obtained silver fine particles, and then drying the silver fine particles by vacuum drying at a temperature of 30 ° C. or lower.
本発明における水溶性あるいは水可溶性であって沸点が200℃以下のアミンとしては、ブチルアミン、プロピルアミン、モノエタノールアミン等を用いることができる。 As the water-soluble or water-soluble amine having a boiling point of 200 ° C. or lower in the present invention, butylamine, propylamine, monoethanolamine and the like can be used.
本発明におけるアルコールとしては、水と相溶性のあるものを用いることができる。具体的には、メタノール、エタノール、プロパノール及びイソプロパノール等を用いることができ、好ましくはメタノール及びエタノールである。これらアルコールは単独でも混合して用いてもよい。 As alcohol in this invention, what is compatible with water can be used. Specifically, methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, and the like can be used, and methanol and ethanol are preferable. These alcohols may be used alone or in combination.
以下、水溶性あるいは水可溶性であり沸点が200℃以下のアミンの代表としてブチルアミンを用いた例について記述するが、プロピルアミン、モノエタノールアミン等のアミンでも同様に調製が可能である。 Hereinafter, an example using butylamine as a representative of an amine having a water-soluble or water-soluble boiling point of 200 ° C. or less will be described, but an amine such as propylamine and monoethanolamine can be similarly prepared.
また、上述した硝酸銀と水溶性あるいは水可溶性であり沸点が200℃以下のアミンを1種類以上用いて調製した硝酸銀のアンミン錯体のアルコール溶液を、水−アルコール混合溶媒中においてアスコルビン酸またはエリソルビン酸により還元することを特徴とする基本的な概念が同様であれば、以下の条件に限定されるものではない。例えば、メタノールの量や水の量は、用いるアミンの溶液への溶解性、反応容器と攪拌機構によりその最適な体積比率は変化する。 In addition, an alcohol solution of an ammine complex of silver nitrate prepared using one or more of the above-described silver nitrate and water-soluble or water-soluble amine having a boiling point of 200 ° C. or less is prepared with ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid in a water-alcohol mixed solvent. As long as the basic concept characterized by reduction is the same, it is not limited to the following conditions. For example, the optimal volume ratio of the amount of methanol and the amount of water varies depending on the solubility of the amine used in the solution, the reaction vessel and the stirring mechanism.
まず、硝酸銀とブチルアミンにより硝酸銀のアンミン錯体をアルコール溶媒中で形成させる。ブチルアミンは硝酸銀に対して2.0〜2.5当量が好ましく、より好ましくは2.0〜2.3当量である。ブチルアミンの量が硝酸銀に対して2.0当量未満の場合には、大きな粒子が生成しやすい傾向がある。 First, an ammine complex of silver nitrate is formed in an alcohol solvent with silver nitrate and butylamine. Butylamine is preferably 2.0 to 2.5 equivalents, more preferably 2.0 to 2.3 equivalents, with respect to silver nitrate. When the amount of butylamine is less than 2.0 equivalents with respect to silver nitrate, large particles tend to be generated.
次に、還元剤であるアスコルビン酸又はエリソルビン酸を水中に溶解させた後、アルコールを添加し混合する。アスコルビン酸又はエリソルビン酸は硝酸銀に対して1.0〜2.0当量が好ましく、より好ましくは1.0〜1.8当量である。アスコルビン酸又はエリソルビン酸が2.0当量を超える場合には、生成した銀微粒子同士が凝集する傾向があるため好ましくない。 Next, ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid as a reducing agent is dissolved in water, and then alcohol is added and mixed. Ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid is preferably 1.0 to 2.0 equivalents, more preferably 1.0 to 1.8 equivalents with respect to silver nitrate. When ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid exceeds 2.0 equivalents, the resulting silver fine particles tend to aggregate, which is not preferable.
続いて、硝酸銀のアンミン錯体を形成させたアルコール溶液を、アスコルビン酸またはエリソルビン酸を溶解させた水−アルコール溶液中に滴下し、還元反応を行うことにより銀微粒子を析出させる。還元反応における反応温度は15〜30℃の範囲であり、より好ましくは18〜30℃である。反応温度が30℃を超える場合、結晶子径が大きくなり、得られる銀微粒子は単結晶に近づくため好ましくない。 Subsequently, an alcohol solution in which an ammine complex of silver nitrate is formed is dropped into a water-alcohol solution in which ascorbic acid or erythorbic acid is dissolved, and silver fine particles are precipitated by performing a reduction reaction. The reaction temperature in the reduction reaction is in the range of 15 to 30 ° C, more preferably 18 to 30 ° C. When the reaction temperature exceeds 30 ° C., the crystallite size becomes large, and the resulting silver fine particles are close to a single crystal, which is not preferable.
滴下終了後、1時間以上攪拌を続けた後、静置することにより銀微粒子を沈降させ、上澄み液をデカンテーションにより取り除いた後、アルコール及び水を用いて余分な還元剤、ブチルアミン、硝酸銀等を洗浄する。 After the completion of dripping, after stirring for 1 hour or more, the silver fine particles are allowed to settle by allowing to stand, and after removing the supernatant liquid by decantation, an excess reducing agent, butylamine, silver nitrate, etc. are removed using alcohol and water. Wash.
洗浄した銀微粒子を、温度30℃以下で真空乾燥後、常法により粉砕することによって本発明の銀微粒子を得ることができる。乾燥温度が30℃を超える場合には結晶子径が大きくなり、得られる銀微粒子は単結晶に近づくため好ましくない。 The silver fine particles of the present invention can be obtained by vacuum-drying the washed silver fine particles at a temperature of 30 ° C. or lower and then pulverizing them by a conventional method. When the drying temperature exceeds 30 ° C., the crystallite size becomes large, and the resulting silver fine particles are not preferable because they approach single crystals.

<作用>
本発明において重要な点は、平均粒子径(DSEM)が30〜100nmであり、多結晶化度[平均粒子径(DSEM)と結晶子径(DX)の比(DSEM/DX)]が2.8以上である銀微粒子は、低温焼成が可能であるという事実である。
<Action>
The important point in the present invention is that the average particle diameter (D SEM ) is 30 to 100 nm and the degree of polycrystallinity [ratio of average particle diameter (D SEM ) to crystallite diameter (D X ) (D SEM / D X )] Is a fact that silver fine particles having a value of 2.8 or more can be fired at a low temperature.
本発明に係る銀微粒子が低温焼結性に優れている理由について、本発明者は次のように考えている。即ち、銀微粒子が低温で焼結するためには、銀微粒子が活性であることが必要であるが、平均粒子サイズが20nm以下では活性が高すぎて不安定あるため、通常、多量の有機物で被覆する必要があり、その被覆物は通常、高分子であり低温では除去できないため、焼成温度を下げることは困難であった。多量の有機物で被覆する必要がなく、できる限り表面活性が高い粒子サイズとしては30〜100nmが考えられるが、従来あるこの粒子サイズの銀微粒子の場合、低温で焼結するための表面活性エネルギーとしては不十分であり、低温焼成が困難であった。本発明に係る銀微粒子の場合、粒子内部、即ち、銀微粒子が単結晶ではなく多結晶体で構成されることにより、粒子内部のエネルギーが高くなり、そのため、低温焼成が可能となったと考えている。 The present inventor considers the reason why the silver fine particles according to the present invention are excellent in low temperature sinterability as follows. That is, in order for silver fine particles to sinter at a low temperature, it is necessary that the silver fine particles be active. However, when the average particle size is 20 nm or less, the activity is too high and unstable. It is necessary to coat, and the coating is usually a polymer and cannot be removed at a low temperature. Therefore, it has been difficult to lower the firing temperature. It is not necessary to coat with a large amount of organic matter, and the particle size with as high a surface activity as possible is considered to be 30 to 100 nm, but in the case of conventional silver fine particles of this particle size, as the surface active energy for sintering at low temperature Was insufficient, and low-temperature firing was difficult. In the case of the silver fine particles according to the present invention, it is considered that the internal energy of the particles, that is, the silver fine particles are composed of a polycrystal rather than a single crystal, so that the energy inside the particles is increased, and therefore, low-temperature firing is possible. Yes.

It is the value. The change rate of the crystallite diameter was similarly determined when the heating conditions were changed at 120 ° C. for 30 minutes and at 100 ° C. for 30 minutes.
