  The present invention relates to a near-infrared shielding material fine particle that is transparent in the visible light region and absorbs in the near-infrared region, a method for producing the same, and a near-infrared shielding material fine particle in which near-infrared shielding material fine particles are dispersed in a medium. Dispersion and near-infrared shielding material produced from this near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion, and in particular, near-infrared shielding material fine particles with improved heat and moisture resistance, a method for producing the same, and near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion Body and near-infrared shield.

  In recent years, in the fields of various buildings and vehicle window materials, etc., it has been aimed to suppress near-infrared light while sufficiently absorbing visible light, and to suppress indoor temperature rise while maintaining brightness. With the rapid increase in demand for near-infrared shields, development of near-infrared shielding materials, near-infrared shielding glass, and the like has been actively conducted.

  For example, in Patent Document 1, on a transparent glass substrate, at least one selected from the group consisting of IIIa group, IVa group, Vb group, VIb group and VIIb group of the periodic table as the first layer from the substrate side. A composite tungsten oxide film containing metal ions is provided, a transparent dielectric film is provided as a second layer on the first layer, and a group IIIa of the periodic table is provided as a third layer on the second transparent dielectric film, A composite tungsten oxide film containing at least one metal ion selected from the group consisting of IVa group, Vb group, VIb group and VIIb group is provided, and the refractive index of the transparent dielectric film constituting the second layer Is made lower than the refractive index of the composite tungsten oxide film of the first layer and the third layer, and a heat ray-shielding glass that can be suitably used for a portion requiring high visible light transmittance and good heat ray shielding performance is proposed. ing.

  Further, in Patent Document 2, a first dielectric film is provided as a first layer from the substrate side on a transparent glass substrate in the same manner as Patent Document 1, and the second layer is oxidized on the first layer. There has been proposed a heat ray-shielding glass in which a tungsten film is provided and the second-layer dielectric film is provided as a third layer on the second layer.

  In Patent Document 3, a composite tungsten oxide film containing the same metal element is provided as a first layer from the substrate side on the transparent substrate by the same method as Patent Document 1, and the first layer is formed on the first layer. Heat ray blocking glass having a transparent dielectric film as two layers has been proposed.

Further, in Patent Document 4, tungsten trioxide (WO ₃ ), molybdenum trioxide (MoO ₃ ), niobium pentoxide (Nb ₂ O ₅ ), and tantalum pentoxide containing additional elements such as hydrogen, lithium, sodium, and potassium. A metal oxide film selected from one or more of (Ta ₂ O ₅ ), vanadium pentoxide (V ₂ O ₅ ), and vanadium dioxide (VO ₂ ) is coated on a glass sheet by a CVD method or a spray method, and 250 A solar control glass sheet having solar light shielding properties formed by thermal decomposition at about ° C. has been proposed.

  In Patent Document 5, a tungsten oxide obtained by hydrolyzing tungstic acid is used, and an organic polymer having a specific structure called polyvinylpyrrolidone is added to the tungsten oxide, so that when sunlight is irradiated, Is absorbed by the tungsten oxide to generate excited electrons and holes, and the appearance of pentavalent tungsten is remarkably increased by a small amount of ultraviolet light, and the coloring reaction is accelerated. In addition, the property that the pentavalent tungsten is oxidized to hexavalent very quickly by blocking the light and the decoloring reaction becomes fast, and the coloring and decoloring reaction to sunlight is fast. There has been proposed a sunlight-modulable light-insulating material that has an absorption peak at 1250 nm and can block near-infrared rays of sunlight.

  In Patent Document 6, tungsten trichloride or its solvent is obtained by dissolving tungsten hexachloride in alcohol and evaporating the solvent as it is, or evaporating the solvent after heating to reflux, and then heating at 100 ° C. to 500 ° C. Obtaining a powder composed of a hydrate or a mixture of both, obtaining an electrochromic device using the tungsten oxide fine particles, forming a multilayer structure, and introducing an optical film into the film when protons are introduced. It has been proposed that the characteristics can be changed.

Further, in Patent Document 7, meta-type ammonium tungstate and various water-soluble metal salts are used as raw materials, and heated to about 300 to 700 ° C., the inert gas (addition amount; about By supplying a hydrogen gas to which 50 vol% or more or water vapor (added amount; about 15 vol% or less) is added, M _x WO ₃ (M: metal element such as alkali group Ia, group IIa, rare earth, 0 <x Methods for preparing various tungsten bronzes represented by <1) have been proposed.

  Further, Patent Document 8 discloses a near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion in which near-infrared shielding material fine particles composed of tungsten oxide fine particles and / or composite tungsten oxide fine particles are dispersed in a medium such as resin or glass. A near-infrared shielding body produced from a dispersion, a method for producing the above-mentioned near-infrared shielding material fine particles, and near-infrared shielding material fine particles have been proposed.

  By the way, the near-infrared shielding body (heat ray shielding glass) described in Patent Documents 1 to 3 is mainly a dry type by a vacuum film forming method such as a sputtering method, a vapor deposition method, an ion plating method and a chemical vapor deposition method (CVD method). Since it is manufactured by the method using the method, there is a problem that a large manufacturing apparatus is required and the manufacturing cost is increased. In addition, since the near-infrared shielding base material is exposed to high-temperature plasma or requires heating after film formation because it is manufactured by the above method, a resin such as a film is used instead of glass. In the case of using it as a base material, it was necessary to separately examine the film forming conditions on equipment.

  Moreover, the near-infrared shielding body (solar control glass sheet) described in Patent Document 4 forms a metal oxide film as a raw material on glass by a CVD method or a combination of a spray method and a thermal decomposition method. Since the precursor raw material is expensive and decomposes at high temperature, it is necessary to separately examine the film forming conditions when using a resin such as a film instead of a glass sheet as a base material. .

  Moreover, since the sunlight-modulable light heat insulating material described in Patent Document 5 and the electrochromic element described in Patent Document 6 are materials that change their color tone by ultraviolet rays or a potential difference, the structure of the film is complicated, There is a problem that is difficult to apply in the field of use where color change is not desired.

  Furthermore, Patent Document 7 describes a method for preparing tungsten bronze, but there is no description of the particle diameter and optical characteristics of the obtained powder. This is because, in Patent Document 7, tungsten bronze is considered to be an electrolysis device, a fuel cell electrode material, and an organic synthesis catalyst material, and the above-described near-infrared shield is not used.

  On the other hand, compared with the above-described conventional techniques described in Patent Documents 1 to 7, Patent Document 8 proposes tungsten oxide fine particles and / or composite tungsten oxide fine particles used for the production of a near-infrared shield. The oxide fine particles have excellent visible light permeability and good near infrared shielding effect. For this reason, it attracts attention as a near-infrared shield that is suitably used in the fields of various buildings and vehicle window materials.

  However, there are cases where these composite tungsten oxide fine particles are not sufficiently satisfied with respect to heat resistance and heat and moisture resistance, and there is still room for improvement.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems, and the object of the present invention is to provide near-infrared shielding material fine particles (composite tungsten oxide fine particles) with improved heat resistance and heat-and-moisture resistance and a method for producing the same. In addition, another object is to provide a near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion in which the near-infrared shielding material fine particles (composite tungsten oxide fine particles) are dispersed in a medium and a near-infrared shielding body.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

1. Near-infrared shielding material fine particles Near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention having absorption in the near-infrared region,
General formula ZnxMyWOz (where Zn is zinc, M is one or more elements selected from Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mg, W is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.001 ≦ x ≦ 2.0, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0) Fine particles of composite tungsten oxide B having a hexagonal crystal structure in which zinc represented by solid solution The lattice constant ratio c / a is represented by the general formula MyWOz (where M is one or more elements selected from Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mg, W is Tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0) is larger than the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide A, and the numerical value is 1.027300 to 1.027700.

First, in the composite tungsten oxide represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz and the general formula MyWOz, the composition ratio z of oxygen (O) when the composition of tungsten (W) is 1 is shown in parentheses of each general formula. It is 2.2 or more and 3.0 or less. When the composition ratio z is within this range, chemical stability as a material can be obtained, and therefore it can be applied as an effective near-infrared shielding material. The composition ratio y of the element (M) when the composition of tungsten (W) is 1 is 0.1 or more and 0.5 or less from the viewpoint of optical characteristics as shown in parentheses of each general formula. It needs to be. When the value of y is less than 0.1, the composite tungsten oxide represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz and the general formula MyWOz becomes unstable as a compound, and foreign phases such as WO ₃ and WO ₂ are precipitated. Moreover, although the near-infrared absorption characteristics improve as the value of y increases, the maximum value at which the composite tungsten oxide stably exists as a compound is 0.5 or less, and preferably around 0.33.

Further, when the composite tungsten oxide fine particles represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz and the general formula MyWOz have a hexagonal crystal structure, the transparency of the fine particles is improved in the visible light region and the absorption property in the near infrared region is improved. improves. This will be described with reference to FIG. 1, which is a schematic plan view of the hexagonal crystal structure. In FIG. 1, six octahedrons formed of WO ₆ units denoted by reference numeral 1 are assembled to form a hexagonal void (tunnel), and the element (M) denoted by reference numeral 2 is formed in the void. The unit is arranged to constitute one unit, and a large number of these one units are assembled to form a hexagonal crystal structure.

  When the cation of the element (M) is added to the hexagonal void, the absorption in the near infrared region is improved. Here, generally, when an element (M) having a large ionic radius is added, the hexagonal crystal is formed, which is preferable.

  When the composite tungsten oxide particles having a hexagonal crystal structure have a uniform crystal structure, the addition amount y of the element (M) is not less than 0.1 and not more than 0.5 as described above, and preferably 0.8. It is around 33. When the composition ratio z = 3 of oxygen (O), the value of y is 0.33, so that the element (M) is considered to be disposed in all hexagonal voids.

  It is also effective as a near-infrared shielding material when the composite tungsten oxide B fine particles in which zinc represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz has a tetragonal or cubic tungsten bronze structure other than the hexagonal crystal described above. is there. The absorption position in the near infrared region tends to change depending on the crystal structure taken by the composite tungsten oxide B fine particles in which zinc is dissolved, and the absorption position in the near infrared region is longer when it is a tetragonal crystal than a cubic crystal. It moves to the wavelength side, and when it is hexagonal, it tends to move to the longer wavelength side than when it is tetragonal. Further, accompanying the change in the absorption position, the absorption in the visible light region is the smallest in the hexagonal crystal, the next is the tetragonal crystal, and the cubic is the largest among them. Therefore, as described above, it is necessary to use hexagonal tungsten bronze for the purpose of transmitting light in the visible light region and shielding light in the near infrared region. However, the tendency of the optical characteristics described here is merely a rough tendency, and varies depending on the kind of additive element, the amount of addition, and the amount of oxygen, and is not limited to this. Accordingly, a composite tungsten oxide B produced by reacting a composite tungsten oxide A fine particle represented by the general formula MyWOz and a compound having a zinc element such as zinc carbonate, in which zinc represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is dissolved. Even if the fine particles contain some tetragonal or cubic tungsten bronze structures other than the hexagonal crystals described above, they can be used as the near-infrared shielding material of the present invention.

Next, in the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz, the composition ratio x of zinc (Zn) when the composition of tungsten (W) is 1 is shown in parentheses in the general formula. 0.001 ≦ x ≦ 2.0. In the composite tungsten oxide having a hexagonal crystal structure, when the composition ratio of oxygen (O) is z = 3, other than hexagonal voids formed by assembling six octahedrons formed of the above WO ₆ units In addition, three octahedrons that are also formed in units of WO ₆ are assembled to form a triangular void (tunnel). That is, although there is a site different from the M element, it is considered that zinc is arranged in a triangular void.

  And the ratio c / a of the lattice constant in the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz (see the hexagonal close-packed lattice symbols a and c shown in the schematic diagram of FIG. 2) is a compound containing a zinc element. It is confirmed that the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz before the reaction is larger than the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide B represented by ZnxMyWOz. Therefore, it is considered that zinc (Zn) is in solid solution. More specifically, the ratio c / a of the lattice constant in the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is the ratio c of the lattice constant of the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz as the starting material. More than 0.000050 compared to / a. On the other hand, the upper limit of the difference between the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide B and the lattice constant ratio c / a of the starting composite tungsten oxide A is 0.000400 or less. The reason why the upper limit is 0.000400 or less is that the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide B is larger than the lattice constant ratio c / a of the starting composite tungsten oxide A by more than 0.000400. This is because the lattice constant ratio c / a becomes excessive, the element (M), which will be described later, is easily desorbed, and the heat resistance and moist heat resistance are lowered. The ratio c / a of the lattice constant of the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz needs to be 1.027300 to 1.027700.

  Further, the c-axis of the lattice constant of the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is also the c-axis of the lattice constant of the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz before reacting with the compound containing zinc element. It is considered that zinc (Zn) is in solid solution also from the fact that it has been confirmed that it is more elongated. Here, the zinc (Zn) is in solid solution means a state in which part or all of the added zinc supplied from the compound having a zinc element is in solid solution.

  By the way, regarding the composite tungsten oxide B in which zinc represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is solid solution, the reason why the heat resistance / humidity and heat resistance are improved as compared with the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz at present. Although it is unknown, the present inventors infer as follows.

First, the presence of water in the atmosphere of the composite tungsten oxide A is deeply related to the deterioration (heat resistance / moisture and heat resistance) phenomenon of the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz under wet and high temperature conditions. This has been confirmed by the present inventors. The composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz is an acidic oxide like WO ₃ and is unstable in moisture. When WO ₃ is immersed in water, the W component is eluted and the pH is lowered. When the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz is immersed in water, the W component is similarly eluted and the pH is lowered. At this time, when the element (M) is a basic element such as Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, etc., the elution of the element (M) is promoted in the form of neutralizing the acidic aqueous solution. It is considered that the infrared absorption ability is lowered. In addition, even when no moisture is involved, the elemental (M) desorption occurs in the composite tungsten oxide A represented by the general formula MyWOz exposed at high temperatures. The composite tungsten represented by the general formula MyWOz This is confirmed by the change in the ratio c / a of the lattice constants before and after the oxide A was exposed to a high-temperature dry air atmosphere. On the other hand, since the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz contains zinc (Zn), which is an amphoteric element, in the composite tungsten oxide B, it neutralizes the acidity caused by the W (tungsten) component. It is considered that zinc (Zn) is consumed in the metal and the elution of the element (M) is suppressed. From such an idea, when the zinc (Zn) composition ratio x of the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is less than 0.001, the amount of Zn for suppressing elution of the element (M) is insufficient. The sufficient durability (heat resistance / humidity heat resistance) of the composite tungsten oxide B cannot be obtained. On the other hand, when the zinc (Zn) composition ratio x exceeds 2.0, the durability (heat resistance / moisture heat resistance) of the composite tungsten oxide B is maintained, but the haze increases. The reason for the increase in haze is presumed to be due to the problem of matching with the dispersing agent used as zinc (Zn) increases.

  By the way, the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention, which is composed of the composite tungsten oxide B in which zinc represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz is dissolved, absorbs a large amount of light in the vicinity of a wavelength of 1000 nm. Become a system. In addition, the particle diameter of the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention can be appropriately selected depending on the intended use of the near-infrared shielding material fine particles. First, when used for the purpose of maintaining transparency, it preferably has a particle diameter of 500 nm or less. This is because particles smaller than 500 nm do not completely block light by scattering, and can maintain visibility in the visible light region and at the same time efficiently maintain transparency. In particular, when importance is attached to transparency in the visible light region, it is preferable to further consider scattering by particles.

  When importance is attached to the reduction of scattering by the particles, the particle diameter is 200 nm or less, preferably 100 nm or less. The reason for this is that if the particle diameter of the particles is small, the scattering of light in the visible light region of 400 nm to 780 nm due to geometric scattering or Mie scattering is reduced. This is because it is possible to avoid the adverse effect that transparency cannot be obtained. That is, when the particle diameter is 200 nm or less, the geometric scattering or Mie scattering is reduced, and a Rayleigh scattering region is obtained. This is because in the Rayleigh scattering region, the scattered light decreases in inverse proportion to the sixth power of the particle diameter, so that the scattering is reduced and the transparency is improved as the particle diameter decreases. Furthermore, when the particle diameter is 100 nm or less, the scattered light is preferably extremely small. From the viewpoint of avoiding light scattering, a smaller particle diameter is preferable, and industrial production is possible if the particle diameter is 1 nm or more.

  By selecting the particle diameter of the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention to be 500 nm or less, the haze value of the near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion obtained by dispersing the near-infrared shielding material fine particles in a medium such as resin or glass is The visible light transmittance can be 85% or less and the haze can be 30% or less. When the haze is greater than 30%, it becomes like frosted glass, and clear transparency cannot be obtained.

  Note that the near-infrared shielding material fine particle surface according to the present invention is coated with an oxide containing one or more elements of Si, Ti, Zr, and Al, which improves the weather resistance of the near-infrared shielding material fine particles. From the viewpoint of making it.

2. Production of near-infrared shielding material fine particles (1) Production of composite tungsten oxide B fine particles represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz General formula ZnxMyWOz One or more elements selected from Sr and Mg, W is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.001 ≦ x ≦ 2.0, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3 0.0) In order to produce a composite tungsten oxide B fine particle having a hexagonal crystal structure in which zinc represented by a solid solution is represented by the general formula MyWOz (where M is Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba) , Ca, Sr, Mg, one or more elements, W is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0) Composite tungsten oxide A was synthesized and composite tungsten obtained Manufactured by adding a compound containing zinc element to ten oxide A fine particles, and firing this mixture in a reducing gas atmosphere, an inert gas atmosphere, or a mixed atmosphere of a reducing gas and an inert gas (heat treatment). can do. When the mixture of the composite tungsten oxide A fine particles and the compound containing zinc element is fired (heat treatment) in a mixed atmosphere of a reducing gas and an inert gas, the concentration of the reducing gas in the inert gas is as follows: Although it will not specifically limit if it selects suitably according to baking (heat processing) temperature, Preferably it is 20 vol% or less, More preferably, it is 10 vol% or less, More preferably, it is 7-0.01 vol%. This is because when the concentration of the reducing gas in the inert gas is 20 vol% or less, rapid reduction of the composite tungsten oxide A fine particles can be avoided.

In addition, zinc oxide, zinc carbonate, or basic zinc carbonate can be applied as the compound having the zinc element. Among these, zinc carbonate (ZnCO ₃ ) or basic zinc carbonate [2ZnCO application of ₃ · 3Zn _{(OH) 2]} is desirable. It is desirable to apply these zinc carbonate and basic zinc carbonate by firing (heat treatment) in the reducing gas atmosphere, the inert gas atmosphere, or the mixed atmosphere of the reducing gas and the inert gas described above. This is because it is easy to produce fine particles of composite tungsten oxide B in which zinc is dissolved in the composite tungsten oxide A. Industrially, the composition of basic zinc carbonate composed of zinc carbonate and zinc hydroxide is indefinite, and the composition of the above [2ZnCO ₃ .3Zn (OH) ₂ ] represents a representative composition of basic zinc carbonate. Therefore, the composition of the basic zinc carbonate is not limited to [2ZnCO ₃ .3Zn (OH) ₂ ].

Next, the firing (heat treatment) temperature may be appropriately selected according to the atmosphere. However, when the atmosphere is an inert gas alone, it is more than 200 ° C. and less than 600 ° C. from the viewpoint of shortening the manufacturing time and single phase. Preferably it exceeds 300 degreeC and less than 500 degreeC, More preferably, it exceeds 350 degreeC and is less than 450 degreeC. If the calcination (heat treatment) temperature is too low, it takes time to diffuse zinc atoms, which is not productive. Conversely, if the firing (heat treatment) temperature is too high, a heterogeneous phase is generated. On the other hand, when the atmosphere is a mixed atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas, a temperature at which WO ₂ is not generated may be appropriately selected according to the reducing gas concentration. The firing (heat treatment) time at this time may be appropriately selected according to the temperature. However, it should be noted that when the treatment time is extended for a long time, the lattice constant ratio c / a of the composite tungsten oxide B represented by the general formula ZnxMyWOz may exceed the upper limit of 1.027700. . For example, if processing temperature exceeds 350 degreeC and less than 450 degreeC, processing time is 10 hours or less.

(2) Production of Composite Tungsten Oxide A Fine Particles Represented by General Formula MyWOz Next, the above general formula ZnxMyWOz (where Zn is zinc, M is Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mg) 1 or more elements selected from the above, W is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.001 ≦ x ≦ 2.0, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0) A raw material for obtaining a composite tungsten oxide B having a hexagonal crystal structure in which zinc represented in solid solution is expressed, that is, a general formula MyWOz (where M is Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, One or more elements selected from Mg, W is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0) The manufacturing method will be described.

Tungsten acid (H ₂ WO ₄ ), ammonium tungstate, tungsten hexachloride, tungsten hydrate obtained by adding water to tungsten hexachloride dissolved in alcohol and hydrolyzing it, and then evaporating the solvent. As a compound having at least one selected tungsten compound and M element (Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mg), tungstate, chloride, nitrate, sulfate, oxalate , Oxides, carbonates, hydroxides, and other compounds having M element are dry-mixed, and the resulting mixed powder is mixed with an inert gas alone or in a mixed gas atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas. It can be manufactured by one-step firing in steps, or the mixed powder can be fired in a mixed gas atmosphere of inert gas and reducing gas in the first step. An example is a method of producing by two-stage firing in an inert gas atmosphere in the second step. Note that tungsten oxide fine particles may be used instead of the tungsten compound.

  Moreover, the following method is illustrated as a manufacturing method different from the said method.

That is, as a tungsten compound, hydration of tungsten obtained by adding water to tungstic acid (H ₂ WO ₄ ), ammonium tungstate, tungsten hexachloride, tungsten hexachloride dissolved in alcohol, hydrolyzing it, and then evaporating the solvent. The mixture prepared by wet-mixing one or more tungsten compounds selected from the above and an aqueous solution containing the M element salt is dried to obtain a dried powder, and the resulting dried powder is converted into an inert gas. It is manufactured by firing in one step in a single step or in a mixed gas atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas, or the dried powder is mixed in an inert gas and reducing gas atmosphere in the first step. And a method of producing by performing two-stage firing in which the second step is performed in an inert gas atmosphere. Note that tungsten oxide fine particles may be used instead of the tungsten compound. The salt of the M element is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include nitrates, sulfates, chlorides and carbonates. Moreover, the drying temperature and time at the time of drying the said liquid mixture prepared by wet mixing are not specifically limited.

  When the mixed powder or dry powder is fired in a mixed gas atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas, the concentration of the reducing gas in the inert gas can be selected as appropriate depending on the firing temperature. Although not limited, Preferably it is 20 vol% or less, More preferably, it is 10 vol% or less, More preferably, it is 7-0.01 vol%. This is because when the concentration of the reducing gas in the inert gas is 20 vol% or less, rapid reduction of the tungsten compound can be avoided.

The firing temperature may be appropriately selected depending on the atmosphere, but when the mixed powder or dry powder is fired in an atmosphere of an inert gas alone, the composite tungsten oxide A fine particles represented by the general formula MyWOz are used. From the viewpoint of the crystallinity and coloring power, it exceeds 500 ° C. and is 1200 ° C. or less, preferably 1100 ° C. or less, more preferably 1000 ° C. or less. On the other hand, when the mixed powder or the dried powder is fired in a mixed gas atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas, a temperature at which WO ₂ is not generated may be appropriately selected according to the reducing gas concentration. Furthermore, when producing composite tungsten oxide A fine particles by two-stage firing, firing is performed at 100 ° C. or more and 650 ° C. or less in a mixed gas atmosphere of an inert gas and a reducing gas at the first step. The conditions for firing at over 500 ° C. and below 1200 ° C. in an inert gas atmosphere are exemplified as preferred conditions from the viewpoint of near-infrared shielding properties. The firing treatment time at this time may be appropriately selected according to the firing temperature, but 5 minutes or more and 10 hours or less is sufficient.

Here, tungstic acid (H ₂ WO ₄ ), ammonium tungstate, tungsten hexachloride, tungsten hydrate obtained by adding water to tungsten hexachloride dissolved in alcohol and hydrolyzing it, and then evaporating the solvent, and A compound having M element such as tungstate, chloride, nitrate, sulfate, oxalate, oxide, carbonate, hydroxide, etc., for one or more tungsten compounds selected from tungsten oxide fine particles Is added using the dry mixing method described above, the compound having the element M is preferably an oxide or hydroxide.

  The dry mixing may be performed with a commercially available grinder, kneader, ball mill, sand mill, paint shaker, or the like.

3. Near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion and near-infrared shielding body ZnxMyWOz (where Zn is zinc, M is one or more elements selected from Cs, Rb, K, Na, Ba, Ca, Sr, Mg, W Is tungsten, O is oxygen, 0.001 ≦ x ≦ 2.0, 0.1 ≦ y ≦ 0.5, 2.2 ≦ z ≦ 3.0). As a method for applying the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention composed of fine particles of composite tungsten oxide B having a structure, there is a method in which the fine particles are appropriately dispersed in a medium and formed on a desired substrate surface. This method can be applied to a base material having a low heat-resistant temperature such as a resin material because the near-infrared shielding material fine particles fired at a high temperature in advance can be bound to the base material surface in the base material or by a binder. It is possible and has the advantage of being inexpensive and does not require a large device for formation.

  In addition, since the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention composed of fine particles of composite tungsten oxide B have conductivity, when used as a continuous film, they absorb and interfere with radio waves from mobile phones and the like. There is a fear. However, when the near-infrared shielding material fine particles are dispersed in the matrix, since each particle is dispersed in an isolated state, it has radio wave permeability and thus has versatility.

  Hereinafter, the near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion according to the present invention in which the above-mentioned near-infrared shielding material fine particles are dispersed in a medium, and the near-infrared shielding according to the present invention produced using this near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion Explain the body.

(1) Method of dispersing fine particles in a liquid medium and forming a thin film on the surface of the substrate Near-infrared shielding material fine particles obtained by finely pulverizing the near-infrared shielding material according to the present invention are appropriately dispersed in a liquid medium to obtain near-infrared rays. A dispersion liquid of shielding material fine particles is obtained, or a mixture obtained by appropriately mixing the near infrared shielding material fine particles with a solvent is wet pulverized to obtain a dispersion of near infrared shielding material fine particles.

  Then, after adding a resin medium to the obtained dispersion liquid of the near-infrared shielding material fine particles, a coating film is formed by appropriately coating on the surface of the substrate, and then the solvent is evaporated and the resin is cured by a predetermined method. This makes it possible to form a thin film (near-infrared shielding body) in which near-infrared shielding material fine particles are dispersed in a resin medium. The coating method is not particularly limited as long as a resin film (coating film) containing fine particles of near-infrared shielding material can be uniformly coated on the substrate surface. Bar coating method, gravure coating method, spray coating method, dip coating Laws are exemplified. Further, those in which the near-infrared shielding material fine particles are directly dispersed in the binder resin do not need to evaporate the solvent after being applied to the surface of the substrate, and therefore are environmentally and industrially preferable.

  As the resin medium, for example, a UV curable resin, a thermosetting resin, an electron beam curable resin, a room temperature curable resin, a thermoplastic resin, and the like can be appropriately selected according to the purpose. Specifically, polyethylene resin, polyvinyl chloride resin, polyvinylidene chloride resin, polyvinyl alcohol resin, polystyrene resin, polypropylene resin, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, polyester resin, polyethylene terephthalate resin, fluorine resin, polycarbonate resin, acrylic resin And polyvinyl butyral resin. These resins may be used alone or in combination. Also, a binder using a metal alkoxide can be used. Representative examples of the metal alkoxide include alkoxides such as Si, Ti, Al, and Zr. Binders using these metal alkoxides can form oxide films by hydrolysis and polycondensation by heating or the like.

  Moreover, as said base material with which the dispersion liquid of near-infrared shielding material microparticles | fine-particles etc. are apply | coated, a film or a board may be used if desired, and a shape is not limited. As the transparent base material, PET, acrylic, urethane, polycarbonate, polyethylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, vinyl chloride, fluororesin, and the like can be used according to various purposes. Moreover, glass other than resin can be used.

(2) Method of Dispersing Fine Particles in Solid Medium and Forming into Plate (Board) Shape or Film Shape Next, as another method using the near-infrared shielding material fine particles according to the present invention, fine particles are treated as a solid medium (substrate ) May be directly dispersed therein. In order to disperse the fine particles in the solid medium (base material), the fine particles may be permeated from the surface of the base material, or after the base material is melted by raising the temperature to a temperature higher than the melting temperature of the base material, May be mixed. The resin containing near-infrared shielding material fine particles obtained in this way (near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion) can be formed into a film or board shape by a predetermined method and applied as a near-infrared shielding body. It is.

  For example, as a method for dispersing near-infrared shielding material fine particles in a PET resin as a solid medium, a dispersion in which the fine particles are dispersed is first prepared by the above-described method, and the PET resin and the fine particle dispersion are mixed. After that, the dispersion liquid is evaporated and then heated to about 300 ° C., which is the melting temperature of the PET resin, and further, the PET resin is melted, mixed, and cooled to produce a PET resin in which fine particles are dispersed. It becomes.

  And the method of grind | pulverizing or disperse | distributing the said near-infrared shielding material microparticles | fine-particles is not specifically limited, For example, ultrasonic irradiation, a bead mill, a sand mill etc. can be used. Moreover, in order to obtain a uniform dispersion, various additives and dispersants may be added, or the pH may be adjusted. The dispersant can be appropriately selected according to the use, and examples thereof include a polymer dispersant, a silane coupling agent, a titanate coupling agent, and an aluminum coupling agent, but are not limited thereto. It is not something.

  Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to comparative examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.

Measure the visible light transmittance and solar radiation transmittance of three kinds of near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersions obtained by using three types of bar coaters with different wire diameters and having different film thicknesses. In addition, the solar radiation (wavelength range 200 nm to 2600 nm) transmittance when the visible light (wavelength range 380 nm to 780 nm) transmittance is 70% is obtained from the three-point plot of the film (near-infrared shielding material fine particle dispersion).
