Description
- The present invention provides a process for preparing ball-shaped zinc oxide particles and their use.
- DE-A 199 07 704 discloses a process for the preparation of zinc oxides with a mean diameter of 5 to 30 nm and the formulation of these as concentrated dispersions in organic solvents and/or water by redispersion, wherein the dispersed zinc oxide is present substantially as isolated primary particles, i.e. agglomerate-free. Due to their fine state of division, these particles are outstandingly suitable as inorganic UV absorbers in transparent coatings or as coactivators for latex vulcanization.
- Zinc oxides prepared in this way, as compared with those prepared by a calcination process, have the advantage that the primary particles are present in a non-agglomerated form or, if agglomerated to some extent, are reversibly agglomerated so they can be introduced and dispersed in gaseous, liquid or solid media in a homogeneous, primary particulate manner by means of appropriate measures. In contrast, in the case of thermally prepared particles, the primary particles grow together to give secondary particles or agglomerates with much higher particle sizes, due to the effects of heat, and these cannot be broken down into the primary particles again, either physically, mechanically or chemically, in an economic manner. Therefore the two types differ fundamentally, Which is why there are generally completely different, non-overlapping, areas of use for the two types.
- It has now been found that, ZnO particles with spherical, ball-shaped surfaces can be obtained during preparation of the particles. These novel ZnO particles have improved vulcanization activity, as compared with zinc oxides which are prepared in accordance with DE-A 199 07 704 and lead to improved material properties for the vulcanizates.

- Zinc oxides prepared according to the present invention preferably have a mean primary particle size of 5 to 50 nm, more preferably of 5 to 20 nm. The particle size can be determined by ultracentrifuge measurements (H.G. Müller, Colloid. Polym. Sci., 267, 1113-1116 (1989)).
- A substantial proportion of the particles, i.e. at least 60%, preferably at least 80%, more preferably at least 95% of the particles, have a spherical, ball-shaped surface, wherein the %-age data is calculated from the number of ball-shaped particles, with reference to the total number of particles found in a volume increment. The method used to determine this includes producing TEM images of the methanolic zinc oxide precipitates prepared in accordance with the present invention and evaluating the images visually. To prepare a sample, the zinc oxide precipitate or dispersion being investigated can be diluted about 1:1000 with a mixture of 2 parts by weight of ethylene glycol and 1 part by weight of water, dripped onto a TEM grid and dried.
- The terms “spherical” or “ball-shaped” mean that the ratio of the particle length to the particle width is of 3:1 to 1:1, preferably 2:1 to 1:1, more preferably 1.5:1 to 1:1.
- The proportion of secondary particles (hard, irreversibly agglomerated primary particles), using the process according to the present invention, is ≦20 wt. %, preferably ≦5 wt. %, preferably 2 wt. %, with respect to the total amount of precipitated zinc oxide. To determine this proportion, a 10 wt. % strength ZnO dispersion can be prepared in the same way as in working Example 6, stored for 5 days at room temperature and then filtered through a 0.2 μm cellulose membrane filter. The filter residues can be dried and weighed. The proportion of agglomerates can then be obtained by dividing the amount of solid determined in that way by the amount of ZnO used for the determination.
- Mixtures of methanol with organic solvents and/or water can be used as solvents in the process according to the present invention. Methanol/water mixtures are preferably used. The use of methanol with less than 1 wt. %, preferably less than 0.5 wt. % of water is preferred. The use of methanol-free solvent systems does not lead to the formation of zinc oxide particles within the scope of the present invention.
-
- used in the process according to the present invention can be obtained by simple dissolution of the commercially available zinc salt, in a methanolic solvent as described above. For economic reasons, coarsely divided zinc oxide can also be initially introduced into a methanolic solvent and can be converted into a zinc salt solution by simply adding the corresponding acid and optionally water.
- The residue R in formula (I) represents preferably H or an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic residue, more preferably H, CH3, C2H5 or C3H7.
- Most preferably zinc acetate optionally in form of its dihydrate can be used as zinc salt in the process of the present invention.
- These solutions have a zinc ion concentration of preferably 1 to 2 mol per kg of solution.
- The hydroxide solutions A2) or B2) have a concentration of hydroxide ions of preferably 3 to 6 mol per kg of solution.
- Basically, a methanolic or aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, which may optionally contain dissolved potassium hydroxide, can also be used instead of a methanolic potassium hydroxide solution. The use of KOH-containing precipitation media (KOH and NaOHIKOH-containing solutions), however is advantageous as compared with pure NaOH-containing precipitation media and is therefore normally preferably used.
- For the precipitation reaction, the zinc salt solution A1) or B1) is kept at a constant temperature of 30 to 65° C., preferably 50 to 65° C., more preferably 55 to 58° C.
- The hydroxide solutions A2) or B2) have a temperature of 10 to 65° C., preferably 15 to 30° C., more preferably 18 to 25° C.
- Preferably the molar ratio of base (OH) to Zn is 1.7-1.8, more preferably 1.72-1.78. Basically, ratios of less than 1.7 or more than 1.8 are also possible. Even when the ratio is <1.7, particles with the initially described sizes, shapes and properties can be obtained, but the amount of Zn which is not converted to ZnO is too large (poor space-time yield) so the process becomes unnecessarily costly and this embodiment is not preferred. When the ratio is >1.8, preferably >1.9, precipitation can no longer be controlled in such a way that particles with the initially described shapes and properties are obtained. Therefore a ratio >1.8 may not be preferred.
- Basically, to control particle growth and particle morphology (the shape and surface structure), substances can also added before, during or after precipitation. These may be alkoxysilanes such as tetraethyl orthosilicate, zwitterionic compounds such as “betaine” (carboxytrimethylammonium) or 6-aminohexanoic acid or surface-active substances from colloid chemistry which are known to a person skilled in the art. Anionic, cationic or non-ionic surfactants, emulsifiers and/or stabilizers with carboxylate, sulfonate, ammonium or polyether groups may be preferred.
- The process according to the present invention is normally performed at atmospheric pressure (1013 mbar), but may also be performed at higher or lower pressures. The process temperatures should then be adjusted accordingly so that they are not above the boiling point of the lowest-boiling component in the process. For the upper limit of 65° C. for the process temperature (corresponding to the boiling point of methanol at that pressure), this means that if the pressure is >1013 mbar the upper limit for the process temperature, corresponding to the boiling point of methanol, may be raised to the boiling point of methanol at the pressure then prevailing, or in the event of a lower pressure, has to be lowered accordingly. An upper limit of >65° C. for the temperature during the process is therefore possible.
- For blending purposes, all stirring and mixing techniques included in the prior art can be used in the batch process, the use of radial and horizontal mixers such as cross-arm paddle mixers and MIG stirrers with aligned blades in combination with flow spoilers being preferred.
- The energy input for the stirrers is generally 0.1 to 3 Watts per liter, preferably 0.2 to 0.8 Watts per liter.

- The subsequent maturation process can be performed by continuing to stir the precipitation solution at preferably 50 to 65° C., more preferably 55 to 60° C. for preferably 20 to 40 min, more preferably 30 to 35 min.
- The lower limit of 40° C. cited as the lower limit for the maturation temperature in all the process variants is the temperature above which maturation proceeds satisfactorily and above which therefore the maturation process is also normally performed. However, this does not exclude the use of maturation temperatures of ≦40° C.
- Subsequent cooling down is achieved by the use of external cooling with a suitable medium such as cold water or brine, wherein the final temperature is preferably 10 to 25° C., more preferably 15 to 20° C., which means that further growth of the particles to give primary particles >50 nm, the formation of particles with e.g. rod-shaped morphology and/or agglomeration to give secondary particles, is prevented. The cooling process for the entire precipitation solution preferably takes less than 60 min.
- In the continuous process, the two solutions B1) and B2) can be continuously brought together in a mixing unit of the static mixer type, or a T- or Y-junction piece, optionally with a downstream mixing section, and blended. The mixing units and the rates of flow of the reactant solutions or the precipitation solution are designed in such a way that homogeneous blending is achieved within preferably less than 6, preferably less than 4, more preferably less than 3 seconds. The time refers to a volume increment which is formed at time t =0 during the combination of a) and b) having a uniform density after preferably t <6, more preferably <4, most preferably <3 seconds.
- The amount delivered of solutions B1) and B2) is adjusted in the process according to the present invention in such a way that, with the given starting temperatures of B 1) and B2), the temperature of the precipitation solution is preferably, ≦65° C., more preferably, ≦60° C. and more preferably 55 to 60° C. and the criterion for mixing time given above is complied with.
- Subsequent particle maturation can be performed by passing the precipitation solution through a residence time section which is kept at a constant temperature of 50 to 65° C., preferably 55 to 60° C., wherein the latter is designed in such a way that the residence time for a volume increment of precipitation solution is preferably 20 to 40 min, more preferably 30 to 35 min. Subsequent cooling down to preferably 10 to 25° C., more preferably 15 to 20° C. can be performed by e.g. collecting the precipitation solution emerging from the residence time section in a tank with adequate jacket cooling or via heat exchangers from the prior art which are known per se to a person skilled in the art. Alternatively, a residence time section is not used, wherein the entire precipitation solution being produced after the blending procedure is collected in a stirred tank cooled to ≦20° C., preferably, ≦10° C. (effective internal temperature) and, after a desired time, this is heated with stirring to preferably 50 to 65° C., more preferably 55 to 60° C., without the further addition of any precipitation solution, and is matured for preferably 20 to 40 min, more preferably 30 to 35 min (semi-continuous process).
- Also possible is precipitation in a stirred-tank under the conditions given for the batch process, wherein, however, the precipitate being formed is continuously withdrawn and either collected in a second tank at a temperature of ≦20° C., preferably ≦10° C. (effective internal temperature) and then matured (see semi-continuous process) or is continuously matured in a suitably designed stirred tank cascade.
- Subsequent cooling down is achieved by external cooling with a suitable medium such as cold water or brine, wherein the final temperature is preferably 15 to 25° C., more preferably 15 to 20° C. The cooling process for the entire precipitation solution preferably takes less than 60 min.

- To improve the degree of dispersion of the particles, mechanical homogenization processes from the prior art can be used, with instruments such as high-speed stirrers (e.g. IKA-Ultra-Turrax® T25 basic, IKA-Werke GmbH & Co KG, D-79219 Staufen), ultrasonic dispersers (e.g. UP200S, UP400S, Dr. Hielscher GmbH, D-14513 Berlin) and/or jet dispersers (Chem. Ing. Tech. (69), 6/97, p. 793-798; EP-A 0 766 7997) being used.

However, natural latex, carboxylated acrylonitrile/butadiene copolymers and chlorobutadiene latices as well as carboxylated chlorobutadiene latices are preferred.
- During the vulcanization of different rubber latices, zinc oxide dispersions according to the invention are used in amounts of 2.0 to 0.01, preferably 0.5 to 0.05 parts by weight, with respect to 100 parts by weight of a latex mixture (dry wt./dry wt.) during vulcanization.

- The concentration of zinc oxide was determined in a similar way to that described in DE-A 199 07 704, by UV spectroscopic absorption measurements or, after dissolving the zinc oxide with glacial acetic acid or ammonia, by a volumetric titration with EDTA, using indicator buffer tablets.
- 240.35 g of zinc oxide (tech. grade 99.8 wt. %) were initially introduced into 1320 g of methanol (tech. grade 99.9 wt. %) and heated to a steady 50° C. The solid was dissolved by adding 355.74 g of glacial acetic acid (tech. grade 99.9 wt. %) and 51.15 g of fully deionized water and the mixture was then heated to a steady 55° C. In order to remove any undissolved ZnO, a total of 34.36 g of KOH (tech. grade 90.22 wt. %) were added in 3 portions. Stirring was continued for 40 minutes and then a solution of 290.00 g of KOH (tech. grade 90.22 wt. %) in 660.00 g of methanol were added over the course of 2 minutes. The reaction temperature was 60° C. during the entire precipitation process. After a maturation time of 35 min, the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature within 10 minutes by means of external cooling with ice.
- 19800 g of methanol were initially introduced into a tank, under an atmosphere of nitrogen, and 9626 g of KOH were added carefully in portions with external water cooling. After stirring for a further 60 min, the dissolution process was terminated. In a second tank, 19338 g of zinc acetate dihydrate in 39600 g of methanol were initially introduced, at room temperature and under inert conditions. Then, under intensive stirring (MIG stirrer, 0.5 W/I), the mixture was heated to 50° C. and stirred for 30 min. After 60 min, the internal temperature had risen to 55° C. and 3130 g of the KOH/MeOH solution already made up was added to the vigorously stirred zinc acetate solution. The mixture than became largely clear. After a total of 30 min after adding the KOH, the actual precipitation process was initiated by transferring the major amount of the methanolic KOH solution over the course of 5 min. The temperature then rose to 58° C. After completion of the transfer process, the mixture was heated to 60° C. and the temperature was held for 35° C. Then the mixture was cooled to 20° C. by means of external water-cooling.
- The particles were compacted by sedimentation of the ZnO particles in the precipitate prepared according to example 1 for a period of 12 hours under the effects of gravity, then the clear methanolic supernatant liquid was removed from above via a lance using an attached pump, 550 g of fresh methanol were added with stirring and then the particles were allowed to settle out for a further 12 hours. The procedure was repeated a further 4 times, until the conductivity of the methanol removed from above was 1.9 mS/cm. The compacted zinc oxide precipitate had a ZnO content of 37.0 wt. %.
- 54.1 g (ZnO content: 37.0 wt. %, corresponding to 20 g of ZnO) of the washed precipitate from example 3 were dispersed with a solution of 1 g of 6-aminohexanoic acid in 200 g of water. Then the total amount of dispersion was concentrated down to 200 g using a rotary evaporator at 45° C. bath temperature and 100 mbar pressure, wherein a translucent long-term stable dispersion of primary particulate redispersed particles was obtained.

The supernatant liquid (2043 g, conductivity 24.3 mS) was removed from above and the residue was stirred for 30 min with 600 g of methanol. The dispersion of primary particulate redispersible particles was then centrifuged for 30 min at 5500 rpm in a laboratory centrifuge (Haraeus Variofuge RF, rotor radius 20.4 cm). The transparent supernatant liquid (837 g, conductivity 15.7 mS) was decanted off. The solid residue (263.1 g) was redispersed with 263.1 g of dichloro-methane. The dispersion of primary particulate redispersed ZnO particles made up had a weight of 508.3 g. After settling out for 72 h, this mixture was centrifuged for 30 min at 5500 rpm and pressure filtered through a 1 Am filter. A translucent, long-term stable dispersion of primary particulate redispersed particles was produced.
- 28.4 g of a 4 wt. % strength solution of triethanolamine in n-butanol were added, with stirring, to 71.6 g of a precipitate prepared according to example 1 and washed according to example 3 (34.8 wt. % ZnO, conductivity of the liquid phase 3 mS/cm). To improve the degree of dispersion of the primary particles, the dispersion obtained was homogenized by a single treatment with a nozzle jet disperser at 400 bar. A translucent, long-term stable dispersion of primary particulate redispersed particles was produced.
- Use of the dispersion obtained from example 6 to produce latex molded parts.

In addition, 0.25 parts by wt. of a commercially available colophonium wax emulsion (Michemlube® 124, (Michelman, Inc., 9080 Shell Road, Cincinnati, Ohio 45236-1299 USA)) were added.
- The solids content of this latex compound was 56 wt. %.
- The data relating to parts by wt. (parts by weight) refer to 100 parts by weight of dry rubber substance, which corresponds to 167 parts by weight of wet natural latex.
- The vulcanization activator ZnO was then added in two different ways:
- a) the corresponding amount of zinc oxide was added directly following the previous steps or
- b) this was only added 2 hours after the previous steps, with stirring.
- Amount of Zinc Oxide Added:
- Trial series 10-A with 0.05 parts by wt. of zinc oxide, prepared as in example 6 (according to the invention)
- Trial series 10-B with 2.0 parts by wt. of zinc oxide, white sealer (surface area 10 m2/g; manufactured by Grillo Zinkoxid GmbH, Germany; powdered form) (comparison)
- Trial series 10-C with 1.0 parts by wt. of active zinc oxide (surface area at least 45 m2/g; manufactured by Bayer AG, Germany; powdered form) (comparison)
- Following this, maturation was performed for 48 hours in each case with constant stirring at 50 rpm and a temperature of 40° C. This matured compound was then filtered through a 100 μm filter in order to remove any coagulated material. After allowing the filtered latex to stand for 10 minutes, dip molding was performed to prepare specimen molded parts. Here, lightly sand-blasted glass plates (dimensions 100×180×4 mm) were dipped into a 15 wt. % strength calcium nitrate solution, as coagulant solution, for 10 seconds and dried. A film deposition of about 0.30 mm was achieved in this way. The films prepared in this way were then dried at 80° C. in hot air for a period of 30 min and then vulcanized at 120° C. for 15 min.
- After a conditioning phase of 24 hours in a normal atmosphere, the non-aged specimen molded parts obtained were subjected to materials testing, wherein the modulus (M300: modulus at 300% extension), the strength (F-max) and the extension at break (Break ext.: extension up to the break point) were determined (Zwick test equipment measured in accordance with DIN 53 504, specimen molded part S2, and ISO 37).

The modulus at 300% extension is much lower when using the zinc oxide prepared according to the present invention than when using comparison samples with zinc oxides which are not according to the present invention. This effect leads to greater wearer comfort which is of importance, for example, when producing latex gloves. The extension up to the break point in the case of trial series 10-A according to the invention also gives higher values than the comparison tests 10-B and 10-C.
- To assess the resistance to ageing, the specimen molded parts were then stored for 8 and 16 h in hot air at 100° C. and the strength values mentioned above were determined again.

- These mixtures were then adjusted to a solids content of 45 wt. % by adding water. Following this, the maturation process was performed in each case for 48 hours with constant stirring at 50 rpm and at a temperature of 40° C. This matured compound was then filtered through a 100 μm filter in order to remove any coagulated material. After allowing the filtered latex to stand for 10 minutes, dip molding was performed to prepare specimen molded parts. Here, glass plates (as described in example 10) were dipped into a 15 wt. % strength calcium nitrate solution, as coagulant solution, for 10 seconds and dried. A film deposition of about 0.30 mm was achieved in this way. The films prepared in this way were then dried at 80° C. in hot air for a period of 30 min and then vulcanized at 120° C. for 15 min.
- After a conditioning phase of 24 hours in a normal atmosphere, the non-aged specimen molded parts obtained were subjected to materials testing, wherein the moduli (M300 and M700: modulus at 300 and 700% extension respectively), the strength (F-max) and the extension at break (Break ext.: extension in % up to the break point) were determined (Zwick test equipment measured in accordance with DIN 53 504, specimen molded part S2, and ISO 37).
TABLE 4 Strength values without thermal ageing M300 M700 F-max Break ext. Example [MPa] [MPa] [MPa] [%] 11A 1.1 7.1 23.6 934 11B 1.4 8.6 22.1 857 11C 1.5 13.4 26.2 829 11D 1.6 19.1 21.7 725 - The nanoparticulate zinc oxide according to example 6, according to the invention, exhibits a higher strength, a lower modulus and a higher extension at break in comparison to the nanoparticulate zinc oxide already described but also as compared with the types of zinc oxide used in practice.
- To assess the resistance to ageing, the specimen molded parts were then stored in hot air at 100° C. for 8 h and 16 h and the strength values mentioned above were determined again:
TABLE 5 Strength values after thermal ageing, 8 h at 100° C. M300 M700 F-max Break ext. Example [MPa] [MPa] [MPa] [%] 11A 1.2 6.7 23/6 923 11B 1.5 12.1 18.7 764 11C 1.5 12.1 22.7 797 11D 1.7 17.2 21.2 735 -
TABLE 6 Strength values after thermal ageing, 16 h at 100° C. M300 M700 F-max Break ext. Example [MPa] [MPa] [MPa] [%] 11A 1.1 5.9 21.4 921 11B 1.5 10.7 17.3 770 11C 1.6 17.2 21.8 734 11D 1.8 18.8 669 - The improved resistance to ageing was also exhibited after the ageing process. This was expressed in particular by the virtual absence of losses in strength as compared with all the other types of zinc oxide and especially in that no increases in the modulus values were noted. The extension at break determined was virtually unaltered, whereas the extension at break decreased clearly, by up to 100%, with the types of zinc oxide used for comparison purposes.
- Although the invention has been described in detail in the foregoing for the purpose of illustration, it is to be understood that such detail is solely for that purpose and that variations can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention except as it may be limited by the claims.
