Abstract
Pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver or silver oxide is prepared by feeding an aerosol into a flame such as is used for the preparation of pyrogenic silica, mixing the aerosol homogeneously with the gas mixture before the reaction, then allowing the aerosol/gas mixture to react in a flame and separating the resulting pyrogenic silicas doped with silver or silver oxide from the gas stream in a known manner.
The pyrogenic silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol can be used as a bactericidal filler.
The pyrogenic silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol can be used as a bactericidal filler.
Description
9.90149 FH/al Bactericidal silicon dioxide doped with silver The invention relates to a pyrogenically prepared silicon dioxide doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol and having bactericidal properties, and to a process for its preparation and its use. It relates also to its use in dispersions or as a filler in rubber and silicone rubber.
It is known to dope pyrogenically prepared silica in one step in a flame using a special process. (DE 96 50 500 Al).
That process is a combination of a high-temperature flame hydrolysis with a pyrolysis. That doping process is to be distinguished from the older, so-called "co-fumed process", in which the gaseous starting materials (for example SiCl4 gas and A1C13 gas) are pre-mixed and burnt together in a flame reactor.
In the doping process, an aerosol is fed into a flame in which a pyrogenic oxide is produced by flame hydrolysis, the aerosol containing a salt of the compound to be doped.
It has now been found that if silver salts dissolved in water are used as the ,starting material for the aerosol, a doped pyrogenic silica having bactericidal properties is obtained as the product.
The invention provides a pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol, which silica is characterised in that the base component is a silica prepared pyrogenically in the manner of flame oxidation or, preferably, of flame hydrolysis, which silica is doped with a doping component of from 1*10-q and up to 20 wt. o, the doping amount preferably being in the range from 1 to 10,000 ppm and the doping component being a salt or a salt mixture of a silver compound or metallic silver or mixtures thereof, the BET surface area of the doped 990149 FH/al oxide being from 1 to 600 mz/g, preferably in the range from 40 to 400 m2/g.
The invention further provides a process for the preparation of the pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol, which process is characterised in that an aerosol is fed into a flame such as is used for the pyrogenic preparation of silica in the manner of flame oxidation or, preferably, of flame hydrolysis, the aerosol is mixed homogeneously with the gas mixture of the flame oxidation or the flame hydrolysis before the reaction, then the aerosol/gas mixture is allowed to react in the flame and the resulting pyrogenically prepared silicas doped with silver or silver oxide are separated from the gas stream in a known manner, there being used for the preparation of the aerosol an aqueous solution containing salts or salt mixtures of silver or the metal itself in dissolved or suspended form or mixtures thereof, the aerosol being produced by atomisation by means of a two-component nozzle or by a different method of aerosol production.
The following may be used as salts: Ag(N03), Agz(SO9), Ag20, also complexed with complexing agents or ammonia.
The process of flame hydrolysis for the preparation of pyrogenic oxides is known from Ullmanns Enzyklopadie der techn. Chemie 4th edition, Vol. 21, p. 464.
The doped silicon dioxide according to the invention and the process for its preparation and use are explained and described in greater detail with reference to Figure 1 and the following example.
Figure 1 shows a diagrammatic representation of the doping apparatus. The core element of the apparatus is a burner of known type for the preparation of pyrogenic oxides. The burner is designated 1 in Figure 1.
X90149 FH/al The burner 1 consists of a central pipe 2 which opens into a nozzle 3 from which the main gas stream flows into the burner chamber, where it burns. That inner nozzle is surrounded by a further ring nozzle 4, from which (ring or secondary) hydrogen flows.
In the central pipe 2 there is a further axial pipe 5, which ends several centimetres before the nozzle of the central pipe 2. The aerosol is fed into the axial pipe 5.
The aerosol, which consists of an aqueous silver salt solution, is produced in an aerosol generator 6 (ultrasonic atomiser).
The silver saltwater aerosol produced in the aerosol generator is passed by means of a light carrier gas stream through a heating zone 7, in which the entrained water vaporises, leaving behind in the gas phase small salt crystals in finely divided form.
Example 1: Preparation of a pyrogenic silica doped With silver or silver oxide 4.44 kg/h of SiCl4 are vaporised at about 130°C and transferred to the central pipe of a burner of known type.
3 Nm3/h of (primary) hydrogen and 7.5 Nm3/h of air are additionally fed into the central pipe.
The gas mixture flows out of the inner nozzle of the burner , and burns in the burner chamber and the water-cooled flame tube adjacent thereto.
0.5 Nm3/h of (jacket or secondary) hydrogen are fed into the jacket nozzle.
12 Nm3/h of (secondary) air are additionally fed into the burner chamber.
The second gas component flows out of the axial pipe 5 into the central pipe 2.
9.90149 FH/al The second gas stream consists of an aerosol which is produced in a separate atomising unit by ultrasonic atomisation. The aerosol generator atomises 725 g/h of 5 0 aqueous silver sulfate solution. The silver sulfate aerosol is guided through a heated line with the aid of the carrier gas of 0.5 Nm3/h of air, the aqueous aerosol being converted at temperatures of about 180°C into a gas and a salt crystal aerosol.
The reaction gases and the resulting pyrogenic silica doped with silver or silver oxide are drawn through a cooling system by the application of a reduced pressure, and the particle gas stream thereby cools to about from 100 to 160°C. The solid is separated from the waste gas stream in a filter or cyclone.
The pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver (oxide) is obtained in the form of a finely divided white powder.
In a further step, any hydrochloric acid residues still adhering to the silica. are removed therefrom at elevated temperature by treatment with air containing water vapour.
The BET surface area of the pyrogenic silica doped with silver is 206 m2/g.
The preparation conditions are summarised in Table 1, further analytical data of the silica so obtained are given in Table 2.

It is known to dope pyrogenically prepared silica in one step in a flame using a special process. (DE 96 50 500 Al).
That process is a combination of a high-temperature flame hydrolysis with a pyrolysis. That doping process is to be distinguished from the older, so-called "co-fumed process", in which the gaseous starting materials (for example SiCl4 gas and A1C13 gas) are pre-mixed and burnt together in a flame reactor.
In the doping process, an aerosol is fed into a flame in which a pyrogenic oxide is produced by flame hydrolysis, the aerosol containing a salt of the compound to be doped.
It has now been found that if silver salts dissolved in water are used as the ,starting material for the aerosol, a doped pyrogenic silica having bactericidal properties is obtained as the product.
The invention provides a pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol, which silica is characterised in that the base component is a silica prepared pyrogenically in the manner of flame oxidation or, preferably, of flame hydrolysis, which silica is doped with a doping component of from 1*10-q and up to 20 wt. o, the doping amount preferably being in the range from 1 to 10,000 ppm and the doping component being a salt or a salt mixture of a silver compound or metallic silver or mixtures thereof, the BET surface area of the doped 990149 FH/al oxide being from 1 to 600 mz/g, preferably in the range from 40 to 400 m2/g.
The invention further provides a process for the preparation of the pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver or silver oxide by means of an aerosol, which process is characterised in that an aerosol is fed into a flame such as is used for the pyrogenic preparation of silica in the manner of flame oxidation or, preferably, of flame hydrolysis, the aerosol is mixed homogeneously with the gas mixture of the flame oxidation or the flame hydrolysis before the reaction, then the aerosol/gas mixture is allowed to react in the flame and the resulting pyrogenically prepared silicas doped with silver or silver oxide are separated from the gas stream in a known manner, there being used for the preparation of the aerosol an aqueous solution containing salts or salt mixtures of silver or the metal itself in dissolved or suspended form or mixtures thereof, the aerosol being produced by atomisation by means of a two-component nozzle or by a different method of aerosol production.
The following may be used as salts: Ag(N03), Agz(SO9), Ag20, also complexed with complexing agents or ammonia.
The process of flame hydrolysis for the preparation of pyrogenic oxides is known from Ullmanns Enzyklopadie der techn. Chemie 4th edition, Vol. 21, p. 464.
The doped silicon dioxide according to the invention and the process for its preparation and use are explained and described in greater detail with reference to Figure 1 and the following example.
Figure 1 shows a diagrammatic representation of the doping apparatus. The core element of the apparatus is a burner of known type for the preparation of pyrogenic oxides. The burner is designated 1 in Figure 1.
X90149 FH/al The burner 1 consists of a central pipe 2 which opens into a nozzle 3 from which the main gas stream flows into the burner chamber, where it burns. That inner nozzle is surrounded by a further ring nozzle 4, from which (ring or secondary) hydrogen flows.
In the central pipe 2 there is a further axial pipe 5, which ends several centimetres before the nozzle of the central pipe 2. The aerosol is fed into the axial pipe 5.
The aerosol, which consists of an aqueous silver salt solution, is produced in an aerosol generator 6 (ultrasonic atomiser).
The silver saltwater aerosol produced in the aerosol generator is passed by means of a light carrier gas stream through a heating zone 7, in which the entrained water vaporises, leaving behind in the gas phase small salt crystals in finely divided form.
Example 1: Preparation of a pyrogenic silica doped With silver or silver oxide 4.44 kg/h of SiCl4 are vaporised at about 130°C and transferred to the central pipe of a burner of known type.
3 Nm3/h of (primary) hydrogen and 7.5 Nm3/h of air are additionally fed into the central pipe.
The gas mixture flows out of the inner nozzle of the burner , and burns in the burner chamber and the water-cooled flame tube adjacent thereto.
0.5 Nm3/h of (jacket or secondary) hydrogen are fed into the jacket nozzle.
12 Nm3/h of (secondary) air are additionally fed into the burner chamber.
The second gas component flows out of the axial pipe 5 into the central pipe 2.
9.90149 FH/al The second gas stream consists of an aerosol which is produced in a separate atomising unit by ultrasonic atomisation. The aerosol generator atomises 725 g/h of 5 0 aqueous silver sulfate solution. The silver sulfate aerosol is guided through a heated line with the aid of the carrier gas of 0.5 Nm3/h of air, the aqueous aerosol being converted at temperatures of about 180°C into a gas and a salt crystal aerosol.
The reaction gases and the resulting pyrogenic silica doped with silver or silver oxide are drawn through a cooling system by the application of a reduced pressure, and the particle gas stream thereby cools to about from 100 to 160°C. The solid is separated from the waste gas stream in a filter or cyclone.
The pyrogenically prepared silica doped with silver (oxide) is obtained in the form of a finely divided white powder.
In a further step, any hydrochloric acid residues still adhering to the silica. are removed therefrom at elevated temperature by treatment with air containing water vapour.
The BET surface area of the pyrogenic silica doped with silver is 206 m2/g.
The preparation conditions are summarised in Table 1, further analytical data of the silica so obtained are given in Table 2.
