DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method for producing a titanium dioxide pigment having excellent pigment properties such as dispersibility, gloss, and durability. The titanium dioxide pigment obtained by the method of the present invention, like general titanium dioxide pigments, can be used in paints, plastics, inks, etc. In addition, it can be used in automobiles by taking advantage of its excellent dispersibility, gloss, and durability. It is useful for high-grade industrial paints such as paints. [Prior Art] Titanium dioxide pigments are used in a wide range of fields such as paints, plastics, and inks as white pigments with excellent hiding power and coloring power, but the required pigment properties are becoming more severe year by year. There is. In general, titanium dioxide pigments are produced by: - crude titanium dioxide pigment - wet grinding - surface coating - filtration, washing, and
It is finished in the process of drying and dry grinding, and its dispersibility and
In order to improve pigment properties such as gloss and durability, the surface is coated with a hydrous oxide or oxide of aluminum, silicon, titanium, zirconium, tin, etc. in the surface coating step. The surface coating is selected depending on the required pigment properties. For example, to improve dispersibility and gloss, use hydrous oxides such as aluminum or titanium, and to improve durability, use silicon, zirconium, or tin. It is common to coat with a hydrous oxide such as. In order to impart more desirable durability, the surface is coated with rfl, then fired at a temperature of 500°C or higher, and then the surface is further coated (Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-19514), or after the surface is coated with ffi, it is dry-pulverized, and then the surface is further coated. How to
) have been proposed. [Problems to be solved by the invention] In the method proposed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-19514,
Although firing after surface coating significantly improves durability, it also reduces dispersibility and
The gloss is significantly reduced and the cost is high, making it uneconomical. The method proposed in Special Publication No. 40-12166 is
After surface coating, the product is filtered, washed, dried, and then dry-pulverized before further surface coating.The process is complicated and uneconomical, and improvements in dispersibility, gloss, durability, etc. are insufficient. .. As described above, it is currently difficult to obtain a product that simultaneously satisfies the high degree of durability, dispersibility, and gloss required in recent years using conventional techniques. [Means for Solving the Problems] In order to solve the problems of the prior art, the present inventors conducted a detailed study on the relationship between the pigment properties and each treatment condition of the surface coating step and the treatment steps before and after the surface coating step. .. The result (a)
In the titanium dioxide component fik slurry, a hydrous oxide of the metal is precipitated on the surface of the titanium dioxide, and when the titanium dioxide particles are coated, the titanium dioxide particles agglomerate, and if coating is repeated thereafter, the surface of the 'lil aggregate particles is coated. This is the cause of the decrease in dispersibility, gloss, and durability (
B> The degree of D collection due to surface coating mainly depends on the type of coating, with strong aggregation when coated with hydrous oxides of silicon and zirconium, and relatively weak when coated with hydrous oxides of aluminum, titanium, and tin. (3) Even a relatively weak hydrous oxide with a concentration of 1 will cause agglomeration if the amount of coating is large, and (2) unexpected problems will occur if wet pulverization is used to crush and disperse agglomerated particles due to surface coating. (E) The titanium dioxide pigment obtained in this way has the following characteristics: a good titane dioxide decomposition slurry is obtained without any peeling of the surface coating, and subsequent surface coating treatments can be carried out smoothly;
It was found that the surface of the particles, which were well separated to almost a single particle, was coated with various hydrous oxides, which resulted in remarkable improvements in breakage resistance, gloss, and durability. The present invention is based on such knowledge. That is, the present invention provides hydrous oxides of two or more metals selected from a group consisting of silicon, zirconium, titanium, aluminum, antimony, tin, and cerium on the surface of the particles in an aqueous slurry of titanium dioxide. This is a method for producing a titanium dioxide pigment, characterized in that, in the coating method, wet pulverization is performed one or more times during the coating step. In the present invention, titanium dioxide (
Coarse pigments) are single particle particles produced by sintering hydrous titanium oxide obtained by hydrolyzing an aqueous titanium salt solution (sulfuric acid method) or gas phase oxidation of titanium halides (chlorine method). Sintered aggregates of rutile type crystals of 0.1 to 0.4 μm are predissolved in water to form an aqueous slurry, and after adjusting the pl1 to 8, 5 to 12 by adding alkali, a dispersant is added, Next, use wet grinding and classification to adjust the particle size to as close to a single particle as possible. Sintering of rutile type crystal? Although anatase-type crystal collections or a mixture of rutile and anatase types can be used instead of the rutile-type crystals, the improved durability thereof is at a considerably lower level than that of the rutile-type crystals.

That is, first, a water-soluble inorganic salt solution is added to the crude pigment slurry obtained by wet grinding and classification while maintaining the temperature at 50° C. or higher, and then an acid or alkali is added to neutralize the inorganic salt. This is done by precipitating. After completing the precepts, it is usually best to meditate for at least 10 minutes. The water-soluble inorganic salts may be those commonly used as surface coating agents, such as aluminum sulfate, aluminum chloride, sodium alkuronate, sodium silicate, potassium silicate, titanium sulfate, titanium tetrachloride, and antimony chloride. , antimony sulfate, zirconium acid chloride,
Zirconium chloride, zirconium sulfate, zirconium nitrate, tin chloride, tin sulfate, tin acetate, tin oxychloride,
Examples include cerium chloride, cerium sulfate, cerium nitrate, and cerium acetate. Examples of acids used as neutralizing agents include sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, and examples of alkalis include hydroxides or carbonates of alkali and alkaline earth metals, ammonia, and amines. In the present invention, in the middle of the surface coating treatment process, that is, after adding at least one water-soluble inorganic salt to the slurry of the titanium dioxide crude pigment and precipitating the hydrous oxide by a neutralization reaction with an acid or alkali, the coating is performed. One of its characteristics is that it performs wet grinding before applying the next coating to loosen the agglomeration of titanium dioxide particles that occur during the surface coating. Therefore, in the present invention, in which hydrous oxides of two or more metals are coated, wet pulverization is performed at least once during the coating process. The effect is especially great when crushed. In particular, in order to improve durability, it is preferable to treat the hydrous oxide of silicon to form a compact amorphous silica by the method described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 47-45173. The total amount of surface coating of inorganic compounds is
z0.0 for each oxide on a weight basis. 5 to 15%, preferably 1 to 10%. During the wet grinding, it is desirable to add an alkali to the slurry after the first surface coating in advance to adjust the PL1 to 8.5 to 12, and further add a disintegrating agent if necessary. This can be done using a crusher such as a sand mill, vibrating mill, ball mill, bevel mill, or bead mill. Although the crushing conditions differ depending on the type of rice crusher used, it is usually sufficient to crush until most of the aggregated particles are broken down. Using zirconia beads, it is desirable to supply slurry so that the residence time of the slurry in the sand mill is 3 to 5 minutes, and to set conditions such that the slurry is passed 1 to 4 times. If necessary, after wet pulverization, the Ti(h) concentration in the slurry may be adjusted by classifying, sizing, or adjusting the Ti(h) concentration in the slurry. The wet pulverization process is performed two or more times, but when the overall wet pulverization time is constant, compared to the wet pulverization process during the preparation of the coarse pigment slurry, the wet pulverization process is performed in the middle of the surface treatment process. It is desirable to increase the strength of wet grinding from the viewpoint of improving dispersibility and gloss.
In order to increase the grinding strength, for example, in the case of a sand mill, the residence time of the slurry to be processed in the sand mill may be increased, the number of times the slurry is fed to the sand mill may be increased, the material, diameter, filling amount of the grinding media, slurry viscosity, etc. This can be done by selecting the pigment concentration appropriately. In the present invention, after the wet grinding treatment, a water-soluble inorganic salt solution is added to the aqueous slurry without filtration or washing to neutralize it and perform the second and subsequent surface coating treatments. In this treatment, as in the first surface coating treatment, at least one of the above-mentioned inorganic compounds can be appropriately selected and coated. In addition, when coating with a plurality of inorganic compounds, it is preferable to perform wet pulverization after coating each compound. Moreover, when coating with a plurality of inorganic compounds, each compound may be precipitated in order or may be co-precipitated simultaneously. In the coating treatment in the present invention, a water-soluble inorganic salt solution is added to an aqueous slurry, and this is neutralized with an acid or an alkali to precipitate a hydrous oxide. In this case, a method is to add an inorganic salt solution and then add an acid or alkali for neutralization, a method to add an acid or alkali in advance and then add an inorganic salt solution for neutralization, or a method to neutralize by adding an inorganic salt solution and an acid or alkali. There are known methods of neutralizing while simultaneously adding , and these methods can be selected as appropriate.

The specular gloss (°-60°) was measured in the same manner. Durability evaluation Gloss retention was evaluated using a carbon arc type sunshine weather meter device (manufactured by Suka 1 Kenki KK, WE-SUN-D).
The test plate was subjected to accelerated exposure (12 minutes of precipitation during 60 minutes of irradiation, black panel temperature: 63±3°C) in a Type C), and the 60''-60@ specular gloss was measured at regular intervals for evaluation. Also,
Chalking resistance is measured in accordance with the chalking opening time and the paint film evaluation standards of the Japan Paint Inspection Association.
Evaluation was made based on the degree of chalking (0 to 10) on the painted surface after 60 hours of exposure. A degree of occurrence of 10 indicates that no chalking has occurred, and the smaller the value, the greater the degree of chalking. [Effects of the Invention] In the method of the present invention, agglomerated particles of titanium dioxide generated during surface coating are loosened by wet grinding, and then surface coating is applied. It is done uniformly in all conditions. Therefore, as is clear from the results in Tables 1 to 4, the titanium dioxide pigment obtained by the method of the present invention exhibits excellent performance in terms of dispersibility, gloss, and durability (gloss retention and chalking resistance).
