【発明の詳細な説明】
(産業上の利用分野)
本発明は光学用、半導体工業用、電子工業用、理工学用
等に使用されるシリカガラスを製造する方法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for producing silica glass used in optics, semiconductor industry, electronic industry, science and engineering, and the like.
(従来の技術)
シリカガラスは耐熱性、耐食性および光学的性質に優れ

大されている。(Prior art) Silica glass has excellent heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and optical properties, so it is an important material indispensable for semiconductor manufacturing, and is also used for optical fibers, photomask substrates for IC manufacturing, TPT substrates, etc. It has been used for many years, and its applications are being expanded more and more.

が必要であり、また高純度のものが得にくいなど経済的
、品質的にいくつかの問題点をもっている。Conventional methods for producing silica glass include a method in which natural quartz is melted in an electric furnace or an oxyhydrogen flame, or a method in which silicon tetrachloride is oxidized and melted at high temperature in an oxyhydrogen flame or a plasma flame. The manufacturing process requires high temperatures of 2000°C or higher, which consumes a large amount of energy, and materials that can withstand such high bulk are required during manufacturing, and it is difficult to obtain high-purity materials, making it economically difficult. There are some problems in terms of performance and quality.
これに対し、近年ゾル−ゲル法と呼ばれるシリカガラス
を低温で合成する方法が注目されている。On the other hand, in recent years, a method of synthesizing silica glass at low temperature called the sol-gel method has been attracting attention.
その概要を面単に述べる。I will give a simple overview of it.
シリコンアルコキシドの加水分解、重合によって、ある

A silica sol containing water, an organic solvent, or a mixed solution of water and a molten solvent in which ot1 particles are dispersed is gelled by standing still, raising the temperature, adding a gelling agent, or the like. Thereafter, the gel is dried to obtain a dry silica gel. Silica glass is obtained by sintering this dried gel in an appropriate atmosphere.
上記のゾル−ゲル法によるシリカガラスの製造法には次
の問題がある。すなわち、5iOz微粒子を水、有機溶

加圧下で焼結する方法が提案されているが、いずれも工
程数の増加、不純物混入の機会の増加を引き起こす。The above sol-gel method for producing silica glass has the following problems. That is, it is very difficult to uniformly disperse 5iOz fine particles in water, organic solvents, etc., and large aggregates of Sing fine particles tend to remain in the silica sol. Such aggregates cause defects (pores) in the glass produced by sintering the gel, resulting in a decrease in quality. Therefore, in order to improve the dispersion of 5iOxa particles, there is a method of irradiating silica sol with ultrasonic waves, and a method of sintering the sintered glass under pressure to eliminate defects (vacancies) in the glass caused by aggregates. However, all of these methods increase the number of steps and increase the chance of contamination with impurities.
液相へのSin、微粒子の分数工程をなくすため、シリ
コンアルコキシドを塩基触媒の存在下で加水分解してS
iOア微粒子を含むゾルを作製し、これを直接、ゲル化
させる方法が提案されている。In order to eliminate the fractional step of introducing Sin and fine particles into the liquid phase, silicon alkoxide is hydrolyzed in the presence of a base catalyst to form S.
A method has been proposed in which a sol containing iO particles is prepared and the sol is directly gelled.
(発明が解決しようとする課題)
しかしこの方法では、乾燥過程でゲルにクラックや割れ
が発生しやすい。このようなゲルの破壊を防ぐためには
、ゾル中に含まれるslo、i粒子径を大きくする必要
があり、このためアルコキシドの加水分解の際に用いる
水は、アルコキシドに対して大過剰でかつ濃厚な塩基を
含む必要がある。したがってゾルをゲル化する前に、大
過剰の水を除去する濃縮工程を入れる必要が生じ、工程

Hにするため、酸を加える必要があるが、これによって
ゾル中に多量に生成する塩は乾燥過程でゲル中に析出し
、ガラス化した際に空孔の発生を引き起こすという問題
が生ずる。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, with this method, cracks and breaks are likely to occur in the gel during the drying process. In order to prevent such destruction of the gel, it is necessary to increase the slo and i particle diameters contained in the sol, and for this reason, the water used for hydrolyzing the alkoxide must be in large excess and concentrated with respect to the alkoxide. It must contain a base. Therefore, before gelling the sol, it became necessary to include a concentration step to remove a large excess of water, resulting in an increase in the number of steps. In addition, to gel the sol, adjust the p
It is necessary to add an acid to make the gel H, but this causes a problem in that a large amount of salt produced in the sol is precipitated in the gel during the drying process, causing the formation of pores when it is vitrified.

Problems such as cranking and cracking are likely to occur due to combustion and separation. However, the appropriate amount of polyethylene glycol and/or its derivatives to be added varies depending on the type of silicon alkoxide used, the type of coexisting alcohol, and the concentration of the base, so it is not necessarily limited to the range of the amount added above. .
