Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a ceramic material consisting of granules, which can be baked at a low temperature for foaming, by subjecting a slurry material obtained by the wet granulation of a raw material composed of a ceramic material, a foaming component, an alkaline component and boric acid to spray- drying. SOLUTION: A slurry material is prepared by compounding a ceramic material such as glass or clay, an organic forming component such as granulated sugar, an alkali component such as soda ash and boric acid in an amount of 0.5-2.0 wt.% based on the total of raw materials, and water and a deflocculant, and subjecting the mixture to wet-milling. The obtained slurry is a homogeneous mixture having a water content of <=60 wt.%, pH of <=10 and a viscosity (25 deg.C) of <=200 cps. Subsequently, using a spray-dryer, the slurry is ejected mistily from the nozzle and at the same time hot air is blown to dry it to obtain a forming ceramic material of granules having particle diameters of 0.5-2.0 mm. The granular material as it is or its formed body shaped into a specific form is baked at a temperature of <=1000 deg.C to obtain a foamed ceramic material.

[0003] The method of spray-drying the slurry material can efficiently produce a foamable ceramic material. The foamable ceramic material made of the granulated material is easy to handle in a storage or molding step, has good moldability, and has excellent properties of the fired foamed ceramic material. In the case of ordinary foamed ceramic materials, it was necessary to raise the firing temperature to 1200 to 1300 ° C.
Techniques have been proposed that enable foaming and sintering at low temperatures below ℃. If low-temperature firing is possible, firing costs can be reduced, and materials that cannot be applied to high-temperature firing can be used.

However, if the foamable ceramic material contains an alkali, the viscosity of the slurry material becomes high, and it becomes difficult to obtain granules by spray drying. Was. In order to facilitate spray drying, it was considered to add a deflocculant to the foamable ceramic material. Problems arise. First, the slurry material containing the deflocculant tends to adhere to the inner wall and nozzle of the spray dryer. The fired ceramic material is colored. When the raw material is wet-pulverized, the temperature of the slurry material rises, and a phenomenon called “dobo” occurs, and the pulverization efficiency is deteriorated.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to make it possible to produce the foamable ceramic material that can be fired at a low temperature by spray drying.

For example, a water-soluble polymer material such as granulated sugar is used. [Alkali component] A material having an effect of lowering the firing temperature of the foamed ceramic material. Specifically, soda ash or the like is used. In addition, if the ceramic substance and the other raw materials also contain a substance exhibiting alkalinity, these alkaline substances are also included in the alkaline component. The effect of lowering the firing temperature increases as the amount of the alkaline component increases.

For example, as long as the raw material does not need to be pulverized because it is relatively easy to mix and disperse, it may be sufficient to simply stir and mix after wet pulverization. The properties of the slurry material obtained by wet grinding are preferably pH 10 or less, and pH 9 or less.

If the particle size is adjusted before wet grinding, the efficiency of wet grinding can be improved.

The spray dryer ejects a slurry material from the tip of a nozzle into fine mist-like droplets, and simultaneously blows hot air onto the droplets to dry the droplets to obtain a granular foamable foamable ceramic material. Further, a disk spraying device that sprays the slurry material supplied to the rotating disk by dispersing the material by centrifugal force can also be used.

The particle size of the granulated foamable ceramic material is preferably 0.5 to 2.0 mm. The foamable ceramic material granulated by spray drying is easy to handle such as storage and molding. In addition, there is also an advantage that when a molded article molded from the granulated foamable ceramic material is fired, a foamed ceramic material having a smooth surface is easily obtained. In particular, in the case of a foamed ceramic material, there is a drawback that crater-like irregularities are generated on the surface of the foamed ceramic material due to shrinkage of the powder material when the powder material is not granulated as it is, but granulated. Such problems are unlikely to occur when a foamable ceramic material is used.

[Production of a foamed ceramic material] A method of producing a foamed ceramic material from a foamable ceramic material may be the same as a usual method for producing a foamed ceramic material. Although the powdered and granular foamable ceramic material can be directly baked to obtain a powdered and granular foamed ceramic material, the powdered and granular foamable ceramic material is molded into an appropriate shape to obtain a molded product. By firing, a foamed ceramic material having a desired shape can be obtained. The molded product can be fired through a drying and curing process.
