Description

光触媒コーティング剤Photocatalyst coating agent
 この発明は、例えば、内装材や布等の物品や壁材の表面等に塗布することで、防汚、消臭、抗菌等の機能を付与することができる光触媒コーティング剤に関する。 The present invention relates to a photocatalyst coating agent capable of imparting functions such as antifouling, deodorizing, antibacterial, etc. by applying it to articles such as interior materials and cloth, and the surface of wall materials, for example.
 この種の光触媒コーティング剤としては、例えば、酸化チタン等の光触媒をシリカ系等の無機バインダーに分散させたものがあり、これを基材表面に塗布すると、無機バインダーにより、酸化チタン等の光触媒が基材表面に固定化され、光触媒に光が照射されることによって光触媒活性が発現し、防汚、消臭、抗菌等の種々の機能が発揮される。 As this type of photocatalyst coating agent, for example, there is one in which a photocatalyst such as titanium oxide is dispersed in an inorganic binder such as silica, and when this is applied to the substrate surface, a photocatalyst such as titanium oxide is formed by the inorganic binder. By immobilizing on the surface of the substrate and irradiating the photocatalyst with light, photocatalytic activity is exhibited, and various functions such as antifouling, deodorizing, and antibacterial are exhibited.
 光触媒として広く利用されている酸化チタンは、廉価に入手することができるが、紫外光にだけ触媒活性を示すため、紫外光が極めて弱い室内では十分な性能が得られない。このため、室内で十分な性能を発現する可視光活性型の光触媒を用いた光触媒コーティング剤が求められている。 Titanium oxide, which is widely used as a photocatalyst, can be obtained at a low price. However, since it exhibits catalytic activity only for ultraviolet light, sufficient performance cannot be obtained in a room where ultraviolet light is extremely weak. For this reason, a photocatalyst coating agent using a visible light active photocatalyst that exhibits sufficient performance indoors is required.
 紫外光活性を有する酸化チタン等の金属酸化物に可視光活性を付与するには、銅、硫黄、窒素等の不純物を助触媒として、主触媒である金属酸化物にドープする方法が一般的に知られているが、このようにして可視光活性が付与された光触媒の酸化力は、元々の紫外光触媒活性の光触媒の酸化力に比べて低下するという特性を有している。 In order to impart visible light activity to a metal oxide such as titanium oxide having ultraviolet light activity, a method in which impurities such as copper, sulfur and nitrogen are used as a co-catalyst and a metal oxide as a main catalyst is generally doped. As is known, the photocatalyst imparted with visible light activity in this way has a characteristic that the oxidizing power of the photocatalyst is lower than the oxidizing power of the photocatalyst having the original ultraviolet photocatalytic activity.

 ところで、金属酸化物が光触媒活性を発現するためには、光励起状態をある程度の時間維持できなければならないが、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径を小さくすると、光励起状態を維持することができず、光励起により生成した励起電子と正孔とが再結合して元の基底状態に戻ってしまうので、十分な光触媒活性を得ることができない。このため、上述したように、そもそも酸化力が大きくない可視光活性型の光触媒については、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径をなるべく大きくすることで、可視光触媒活性を高くしているのが現状である。 By the way, in order for a metal oxide to exhibit photocatalytic activity, the photoexcited state must be able to be maintained for a certain period of time. However, if the particle size of the metal oxide constituting the photocatalyst is reduced, the photoexcited state must be maintained. However, since excited electrons and holes generated by photoexcitation recombine and return to the original ground state, sufficient photocatalytic activity cannot be obtained. For this reason, as described above, with respect to a visible light active photocatalyst that does not have high oxidizing power, the visible light catalytic activity is increased by increasing the particle diameter of the metal oxide constituting the photocatalyst as much as possible. is the current situation.
 しかしながら、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径を大きくすると、表面積が小さくなる(被分解物質との接触面積が小さくなる)ので、被分解物質を短時間で効率よく分解することができず、分解能力が低下するといった問題がある。 However, when the particle size of the metal oxide composing the photocatalyst is increased, the surface area becomes smaller (the contact area with the substance to be decomposed), so that the substance to be decomposed can be efficiently decomposed in a short time. However, there is a problem that the decomposition ability is reduced.
 つまり、可視光活性型の光触媒は、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径を大きくして可視光触媒活性を高めると、被分解物質の分解能力が低下し、逆に、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径を小さくして被分解物質の分解能力を高めると、可視光触媒活性が低下してしまうというジレンマに陥っている。 In other words, when the visible light activity type photocatalyst increases the visible light catalytic activity by increasing the particle size of the metal oxide constituting the photocatalyst, the decomposition ability of the substance to be decomposed decreases. When the particle size of the metal oxide is reduced to increase the decomposition ability of the substance to be decomposed, the visible light catalytic activity is lowered.
 そこで、この発明の課題は、光触媒を構成している金属酸化物の粒子径が小さくても、十分な可視光触媒活性を確保することができる光触媒コーティング剤を提供することにある。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a photocatalyst coating agent capable of ensuring a sufficient visible photocatalytic activity even when the particle diameter of the metal oxide constituting the photocatalyst is small.

(Color viewing confirmation test by light irradiation)
The sample liquids of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 10 were each applied to one side of two 10 cm 2 glass plates with a spray gun at 10 cc / m 2 and then dried at room temperature to obtain two samples. The sample was prepared and subjected to a color confirmation test by light irradiation according to the test method shown below, and the photocatalytic activity of each sample solution was evaluated. For Comparative Example 9 and Comparative Example 10, the specimen solution was applied to one side of two 10 cm 2 glass plates with a spray gun at 10 cc / m 2 , and then 1 g of ethyl silicate (48 by Colcoat Co., Ltd.) was 49 cc.

Two specimens are placed so that the specimen liquid application surface is top and horizontal, and one specimen top is irradiated with ultraviolet light at a height of 20 cm so that the specimen is directly under the light beam. While installing the black light 20W, a white LED for irradiating visible light was installed above the other specimen so that the specimen would be directly under the light and the illuminance would be 3500 Lx. Appropriate spacing is applied to the application surface of each specimen, and Rhodamine B having a concentration of 0.001% and methylene blue having a concentration of 0.001% are dropped one by one with a dropper, and then ultraviolet light is applied to one specimen. Each specimen was irradiated with visible light. The photocatalytic activity of each sample solution was confirmed by visual confirmation of the color change of each dye at 5 minutes after the start of light irradiation, when the color change of the dye disappeared, and when the color change of the dye decreased Δ, and the case where the coloration of the pigment did not change was evaluated as x.

 表2に示すように、金属酸化物の分散液であるアモルファスTi分散液やTiO分散液と、一次粒子径が5~20nmの混合粒子シリカからなる主材粒子と一次粒子径が主材粒子の一次粒子径の1/3以下である微粒子シリカを含む助材粒子とを水に分散させた無機バインダーとを混合してなる実施例1~3の検体液は、十分な紫外光触媒活性を有しているだけでなく、ローダミンBに対して高い可視光触媒活性を有しており、メチレンブルーに対しては5分以内照射で完全に分解することができず少し色見が残ったが、可視光触媒活性を有していることは確認できた。 As shown in Table 2, the amorphous Ti 2 O 3 dispersion or TiO 2 dispersion, which is a dispersion of metal oxide, the main material particles composed of mixed particle silica having a primary particle diameter of 5 to 20 nm, and the primary particle diameter The sample liquids of Examples 1 to 3 prepared by mixing auxiliary particles containing fine particle silica having a particle size of 1/3 or less of the primary particle diameter with water and an inorganic binder are sufficient ultraviolet photocatalysts. Not only has activity, but also has a high visible light catalytic activity for rhodamine B, and methylene blue could not be completely decomposed by irradiation within 5 minutes, but a little color was left. It was confirmed that the compound had visible light catalytic activity.
 表2に示すように、金属酸化物の分散液であるWO分散液と、一次粒子径が5~20nmの混合粒子シリカからなる主材粒子と一次粒子径が主材粒子の一次粒子径の1/3以下である微粒子シリカを含む助材粒子とを水に分散させた無機バインダーとを混合してなる実施例4、5の検体液は、十分な紫外光触媒活性を有しているだけでなく、メチレンブルーに対して高い可視光触媒活性を有しており、ローダミンBに対しては5分以内照射で完全に分解することができず少し色見が残ったが、可視光触媒活性を有していることは確認できた。 As shown in Table 2, the WO 3 dispersion which is a dispersion of metal oxide, the main material particles composed of mixed particle silica having a primary particle size of 5 to 20 nm, and the primary particle size is the primary particle size of the main material particles. The sample liquids of Examples 4 and 5 formed by mixing an inorganic binder in which auxiliary particles containing fine particle silica that is 1/3 or less are dispersed in water only have sufficient ultraviolet photocatalytic activity. It has a high visible photocatalytic activity for methylene blue and rhodamine B cannot be completely decomposed by irradiation within 5 minutes, but a little color remains, but has a visible photocatalytic activity. I was able to confirm.
 一方、無機バインダーを構成している主材粒子として、一次粒子径が20~30nmという粒子径の大きい混合粒子シリカを使用している比較例1の検体液は、被膜を形成することができるもののガラス板表面から剥離してしまうので、比較例1の検体液はコーティング剤としての基本的な機能を有しておらず、光照射による色見確認試験も行うことができなかった。 On the other hand, the sample liquid of Comparative Example 1 using a mixed particle silica having a large primary particle size of 20 to 30 nm as the main material particles constituting the inorganic binder can form a film. Since it peels from the glass plate surface, the sample liquid of Comparative Example 1 did not have a basic function as a coating agent, and a color confirmation test by light irradiation could not be performed.
 また、無機バインダーを構成している主材粒子として、一次粒子径が2nmという粒子径の小さすぎる微粒子シリカを使用している比較例2の検体液は、金属酸化物であるアモルファスTiと無機バインダーとが激しく凝集し、基材であるガラス板に塗布することができず、当然のことながら、光照射による色見確認試験は行うことができなかった。 In addition, the specimen liquid of Comparative Example 2 in which the fine particle silica having a primary particle diameter of 2 nm which is too small is used as the main material particle constituting the inorganic binder is amorphous Ti 2 O 3 which is a metal oxide. The inorganic binder and the inorganic binder agglomerated violently and could not be applied to the glass plate as the base material.
 また、無機バインダーを構成している助材粒子として、一次粒子径が主材粒子(混合粒子シリカ)の一次粒子径(5~20nm)の1/3を上回る10nmのシリカや白金を使用している比較例3の検体液は、ガラス板表面に被膜を形成することができるものの紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性の双方を有しておらず、光触媒コーティング剤とはならないことが判明した。 Further, as auxiliary particles constituting the inorganic binder, 10 nm of silica or platinum whose primary particle diameter exceeds 1/3 of the primary particle diameter (5 to 20 nm) of the main material particle (mixed particle silica) is used. Although the sample liquid of Comparative Example 3 can form a film on the surface of the glass plate, it has been found that it does not have both ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity and does not become a photocatalytic coating agent.
 実施例1の無機バインダーを使用しないアモルファスTi分散液からなる比較例4の検体液は、ガラス板表面に強固な被膜を形成することはできるものの紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性の双方を有しておらず、比較例4の検体液は光触媒コーティング剤とはならないことが判明した。 The sample liquid of Comparative Example 4 composed of an amorphous Ti 2 O 3 dispersion not using an inorganic binder of Example 1 can form a strong film on the glass plate surface, but exhibits both ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity. It was found that the sample liquid of Comparative Example 4 was not a photocatalyst coating agent.
 実施例1の無機バインダーを使用しないTiO分散液からなる比較例5、6の検体液は、ガラス板表面に被膜を形成することができず、コーティング剤としての基本的な機能を有していないが、光照射による色見確認試験により、紫外光触媒活性を有しているが、可視光触媒活性は有していないことが確認できた。 The sample liquids of Comparative Examples 5 and 6 composed of a TiO 2 dispersion not using an inorganic binder of Example 1 cannot form a film on the surface of the glass plate and have a basic function as a coating agent. Although there was no color confirmation test by light irradiation, it was confirmed that it had ultraviolet photocatalytic activity but no visible photocatalytic activity.
 実施例1の無機バインダーを使用しないWO分散液からなる比較例7、8の検体液は、ガラス板表面に被膜を形成することができず、コーティング剤としての基本的な機能を有していないが、光照射による色見確認試験により、紫外光触媒活性を有していないが、可視光触媒活性は有していることが確認できた。 The sample liquids of Comparative Examples 7 and 8 composed of a WO 3 dispersion that does not use the inorganic binder of Example 1 cannot form a film on the surface of the glass plate, and have a basic function as a coating agent. Although it was not, it was confirmed by a color-viewing confirmation test by light irradiation that it has no ultraviolet photocatalytic activity but has visible light catalytic activity.
 バインダーとして粒子径が100nmのシリカを分散させた比較例9、10の検体液は、ガラス表面に塗布した後、さらにエチルシリケートを塗布することにより、ガラス板表面に被膜を形成することはできるものの紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性の双方を有しておらず、光触媒コーティング剤とはならないことが判明した。 Although the sample liquids of Comparative Examples 9 and 10 in which silica having a particle size of 100 nm is dispersed as a binder can be formed on the glass plate surface by further applying ethyl silicate after coating on the glass surface. It has been found that it does not have both ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity and does not become a photocatalytic coating agent.
 (基材の白化試験)
 プラズマ処理後、親水状態にした10cmのポリカーボネート板に、実施例1~5及び比較例4~8の検体液をスプレーガンにて10cc/mで塗布した後、常温で乾燥させることにより検体を作成し、これらの検体を好天候下、塗布面を上部になるように設置した状態で1日屋外放置した。下地であるポリカーボネート板を傷めると白化現象が起こるので、この現象を利用して下地となる基材の損傷を白化の有無によって評価し、結果を表3に示した。
(Substrate whitening test)
After plasma treatment, the sample liquids of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 4 to 8 were applied at 10 cc / m 2 with a spray gun to a 10 cm 2 polycarbonate plate made hydrophilic, and then dried at room temperature. The specimens were left outdoors for one day with the application surface on top in good weather. Since the whitening phenomenon occurs when the polycarbonate plate that is the base is damaged, damage to the base material that is the base is evaluated based on the presence or absence of whitening using this phenomenon, and the results are shown in Table 3.

 表3から分かるように、そもそも紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性の双方を有していない比較例4の検体液を除いて、紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性のいずれか一方または双方を有している実施例1~5及び比較例5~8の検体液のうち、金属酸化物の一次粒子径が5nm以下で、かつ、一次粒子径が5~20nmの混合粒子シリカからなる主材粒子と一次粒子径が主材粒子の一次粒子径の1/3以下である微粒子シリカを含む助材粒子とを水に分散させた無機バインダーを使用している実施例1、2、4の検体液については、ポリカーボネート板が白化しておらず、下地となる基材の損傷を防止できることが確認できた。 As can be seen from Table 3, the sample liquid of Comparative Example 4 which originally does not have both ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity has one or both of ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity. Of the specimen liquids of Examples 1 to 5 and Comparative Examples 5 to 8, main particles and primary particles composed of mixed particle silica having a primary particle diameter of 5 nm or less and a primary particle diameter of 5 to 20 nm of the metal oxide. For the sample liquids of Examples 1, 2, and 4 using an inorganic binder in which auxiliary particles containing fine particle silica having a diameter of 1/3 or less of the primary particle diameter of the main material particles are dispersed in water, It was confirmed that the polycarbonate plate was not whitened, and damage to the base material serving as the base could be prevented.

 表4から分かるように、無機バインダーの助材粒子として微粒子シリカのみを使用した実施例6の検体液は、紫外光触媒活性及び可視光触媒活性の双方を有しているものの色素の分解に時間がかかるが、パラジウムからなる助材粒子を添加した実施例7の検体液は、色素の分解速度が大幅(実施例6の検体液の2倍以上)に増大し、さらにセレンからなる助材粒子を添加した実施例8の検体液は、さらに色素の分解速度が増大することが確認できた。 As can be seen from Table 4, the sample liquid of Example 6 using only fine particle silica as the auxiliary binder particle of inorganic binder has both ultraviolet photocatalytic activity and visible photocatalytic activity, but takes time to decompose the dye. However, in the sample liquid of Example 7 to which the auxiliary material particles made of palladium were added, the degradation rate of the dye was greatly increased (at least twice as much as that of the sample liquid of Example 6), and the auxiliary material particles made of selenium were further added. It was confirmed that the sample solution of Example 8 further increased the degradation rate of the dye.
 なお、色素の分解速度を大幅に増大させるために添加する助材粒子としては、上述したパラジウムに限定されるものではなく、白金族元素(ルテニウム、ロジウム、パラジウム、オスミウム、イリジウム、白金)から選択される少なくとも1種類の貴金属を使用すればよく、さらに添加する助材粒子としては、上述したセレンに限定されるものではなく、セレン、モリブデン、酸化スズから選択される少なくとも1種類を使用することで同様の効果を得ることができる。 The auxiliary particles added to greatly increase the decomposition rate of the dye are not limited to the above-mentioned palladium, but are selected from platinum group elements (ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, platinum). It is sufficient to use at least one kind of noble metal, and the auxiliary particles to be added are not limited to the above-mentioned selenium, but use at least one kind selected from selenium, molybdenum and tin oxide. A similar effect can be obtained.
