[0167] Invention Effects

[0168] According to this disclosure, a magnesium oxide with good moisture resistance can be provided. Preferably, this disclosure provides a magnesium oxide that, when mixed with a resin, can suppress the increase in viscosity of the mixture. Furthermore, preferably, this disclosure provides a magnesium oxide that, when mixed with a resin, can suppress the increase in torque during stirring of the mixture. Detailed Implementation

[0169] In Scheme I, the dyne value of magnesium oxide disclosed herein is less than 50 mN / m.

[0170] In Scheme II, the dyne value of magnesium oxide disclosed herein is less than 45 mN / m.

[0171] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the following text implies that either Option I or Option II is applicable.

[0172] The magnesium oxide disclosed herein exhibits excellent moisture resistance. In a preferred embodiment, the magnesium oxide of this disclosure maintains excellent moisture resistance even with prolonged use. Therefore, the formation of Mg(OH)₂ from the reaction of MgO with water can be suppressed, and acid resistance can also be improved. Furthermore, the magnesium oxide of this disclosure exhibits good affinity with resins and good dispersibility in resins. As a result, the thermal conductivity of resin materials containing the magnesium oxide of this disclosure can be improved. This disclosure should not be construed as limiting to a particular theory; the reasons for the improved moisture resistance of the magnesium oxide of this disclosure are considered to be as follows.

[0173] That is, the dyne value is a numerical value that can be used as an indicator of surface free energy. The larger the dyne value, the higher the surface free energy, and the smaller the dyne value, the lower the surface free energy. In the magnesium oxide disclosed in this invention, it is believed that by reducing its surface free energy, the interaction with water can be suppressed, thereby improving its moisture resistance.

[0174] In this disclosure, "magnesium oxide" is not limited to magnesium oxide in compound form, but may also include materials with magnesium oxide as the main component that have undergone surface treatment or other treatments. In this specification, magnesium oxide as a compound is sometimes referred to as "MgO". It should be noted that magnesium oxide (MgO) as the above-mentioned compound may contain elements such as Ca, Si, Cl, S, Al, and Fe as impurities.

[0175] In Scheme I, the dyne value of magnesium oxide is less than 50 mN / m, preferably 15 mN / m or more and 50 mN / m or less, more preferably 20 mN / m or more and 45 mN / m or less. The dyne value of magnesium oxide is preferably 50 mN / m or less, more preferably 45 mN / m or less, further preferably 40 mN / m or less, and preferably 15 mN / m or more, more preferably 20 mN / m or more.

[0176] In Scheme II, the dyne value of magnesium oxide is less than 45 mN / m, preferably 15 mN / m or more and 40 mN / m or less, more preferably 20 mN / m or more and 35 mN / m or less. The dyne value of magnesium oxide is preferably 45 mN / m or less, more preferably 40 mN / m or less, further preferably 35 mN / m or less, and preferably 15 mN / m or more, more preferably 20 mN / m or more.

[0177] The dyne value of magnesium oxide can be determined by the following methods.

[0178] [Methods for determining dyne value]

[0179] Prepare solutions with dyne values ​​of 25.4 mN / m, 30.0 mN / m, 35.0 mN / m, 40.0 mN / m, 45.0 mN / m, and 50.0 mN / m, as well as water. Measure 2 mL of each liquid into a clean glass container and adjust the liquid temperature to 25°C. Use a glass container where the liquid level is at least 5 mm above the bottom. Next, dry the sample at 60°C for 1 hour, then adjust the sample temperature to 25°C. Then, sprinkle 0.01 g of the sample onto the surface of each liquid.

On the other hand, by making the above r s Within the aforementioned range, the amount of silane coupling agent added is moderate relative to the surface area of ​​magnesium oxide, which can suppress manufacturing costs and maintain thermal conductivity even when mixed with resin, thereby also suppressing exudation.

[0321] The above r s Preferably, it is 40% or more and 210% or less, more preferably 50% or more and 200% or less, and even more preferably 70% or more and 150% or less. sPreferably, it is 40% or more, more preferably 50% or more, even more preferably 70% or more, and preferably 210% or less, even more preferably 200% or less, and even more preferably 150% or less.

[0322] The above r s This can also be described as the ratio of the total area that the silane coupling agent can cover to the surface area of ​​the MgO that will be treated.

Furthermore, by making r... s If the upper limit is within the above range, it is easy to improve the coverage efficiency of silane coupling agents.

[0323] The area occupied by the aforementioned 1 molecule of silane coupling agent can be calculated based on the area occupied by the SO- groups bonded to MgO, for example, it can be set as 13 × 10⁻⁶. -20 (m) 2 ).

[0324] Magnesium oxide with the above-mentioned surface treatment layer can be manufactured by wet processing.

[0325] Specifically, the method for manufacturing magnesium oxide is also included within the scope of this disclosure. The method includes the following steps: surface-treating a first magnesium oxide with a surface treatment agent containing a silane coupling agent to obtain a second magnesium oxide having a surface-treated layer.

[0326] The surface treatment described above is performed using a wet process.

[0327] It is believed that by performing the above surface treatment through wet processing, the silane coupling agent can be uniformly attached to the MgO surface.

[0328] In this disclosure, wet processing can refer to processing a mixture comprising the object to be surface-treated and a surface-treated agent in a slurry state. The slurry may be, for example, a mixture with a solids content of 10% by mass or more and 70% by mass or less, preferably 20% by mass or more and 65% by mass or less, and more preferably 30% by mass or more and 60% by mass or less.

[0329] In this disclosure, the solid component of the mixture refers to the heating residue after heating the mixture at 105°C for 1 hour, and the solid component concentration refers to the value obtained by dividing the total mass of the heating residue by the total mass of the mixture supplied for heating.

[0330] The surface treatment agents containing silane coupling agents mentioned above have the same meaning as the surface treatment agents used to form the surface treatment layer mentioned above.

[0331] The aforementioned first magnesium oxide can typically be magnesium oxide without a surface treatment layer, i.e., MgO.

[0332] In Scheme I, the specific surface area of ​​the first magnesium oxide can be 0.01 m². 2 / g or more and less than 1.3m 2 / g, preferably 0.05m 2 / g or more and 1m 2 / g or less, more preferably 0.1m 2 / g or more and 1.0m 2 / g or less. The specific surface area of ​​magnesium oxide can be 0.01m². 2 / g or more, preferably 0.05m 2 / g or more, more preferably 0.1m 2 / g or more, and can be less than 1.3m 2 / g, preferably 1m 2 / g or less, more preferably 1.0m 2 / g or less. By keeping the specific surface area of ​​the first magnesium oxide within the above range, the interface between the magnesium oxide particles forming the surface treatment layer and the resin can be easily controlled, and the viscosity of the mixture can be reduced when mixed with the resin.

[0333] In Scheme II, the specific surface area of ​​the first magnesium oxide can preferably be 0.01 m². 2 / g or more and 10m 2 / g or less, more preferably 0.05m 2 / g or more and 5.0m 2 / g or less, more preferably 0.1m 2 / g or more and 3.0m 2 / g or less. The specific surface area of ​​magnesium oxide is preferably 0.01m². 2 / g or more, preferably 0.05m 2 / g or more, further preferably 0.1m 2 / g or more, and preferably 10m 2 / g or less, preferably 5.0m 2 / g or less, more preferably 3.0m 2 / g or less.

The specific surface area of ​​the first magnesium oxide described above is preferably 0.01m². 2 / g or more, preferably 0.05m 2 / g or more, further preferably 0.1m 2 / g or more, and preferably 10m 2 / g or less, preferably 5.0m 2 / g or less, more preferably 3.0m 2 / g or less.

[0335] In Scheme I, the average particle size of the first magnesium oxide is preferably 0.5 μm or more and 50 μm or less, more preferably 1.0 μm or more and 40 μm or less, and even more preferably 1.5 μm or more and 35 μm or less.

Because the average particle size of the first magnesium oxide is within the above range, the surface state of the magnesium oxide is easily controlled, the resulting magnesium oxide particles with a surface treatment layer exhibit good moisture resistance, and the viscosity and torque when the magnesium oxide is mixed with the resin can be reduced.

[0336] In Scheme II, the average particle size of the first magnesium oxide is preferably 0.5 μm or more and 10 μm or less, more preferably 1.0 μm or more and 8 μm or less, and even more preferably 1.5 μm or more and 5 μm or less.

The average particle size of the first magnesium oxide is preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 1.0 μm or more, even more preferably 1.5 μm or more, and preferably 50 μm or less, more preferably 40 μm or less, and even more preferably 30 μm or less.

[0338] The above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be used to achieve the r expressed by the above formula (2). s It is preferably used in an amount of 40% or more and 210% or less, more preferably 50% or more and 200% or less, and even more preferably 70% or more and 150% or less.

[0339] In a preferred embodiment, the manufacturing method described above may include the following steps:

[0340] The organic solvent was mixed with the first magnesium oxide to obtain the first mixture;

[0341] The surface treatment agent containing the silane coupling agent is mixed with the first mixture to obtain the second mixture;

[0342] The organic solvent was removed from the second mixture to obtain the second magnesium oxide precursor;

[0343] The above-mentioned second magnesium oxide precursor is heated and / or dried to obtain a second magnesium oxide with a surface treatment layer.

[0344] As the aforementioned organic solvent, an organic solvent that can be miscible with or can dissolve the silane coupling agent is preferred.

[0345] The boiling point of the aforementioned organic solvent is preferably 70°C or higher and 140°C or lower, more preferably 75°C or higher and 130°C or lower, and even more preferably 80°C or higher and 120°C or lower. By keeping the boiling point of the organic solvent within this range, the surface treatment exhibits good stability, and subsequent heating and / or drying of the precursor can be easily performed.

[0346] As the organic solvents mentioned above, alcohol solvents are preferred, specifically ethanol, isopropanol and butanol.

[0347] In the first mixture described above, the amount of organic solvent relative to 100 parts by mass of the first magnesium oxide is preferably 50 parts by mass or more and 900 parts by mass or less, more preferably 60 parts by mass or more and 400 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 70 parts by mass or more and 200 parts by mass or less.

[0348] The first mixture may also contain water. The amount of water relative to 100 parts by mass of the organic solvent contained in the first mixture is preferably 0 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less, more preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more and 5 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.05 parts by mass or more and 3 parts by mass or less.

[0349] When the first mixture contains water, the mixing order of the organic solvent, the first magnesium oxide, and the water is not particularly limited. For example, the organic solvent can be mixed with water first, and then the mixture can be further mixed with magnesium oxide; the organic solvent can be mixed with magnesium oxide first, and then the mixture can be further mixed with water; or the organic solvent, water, and magnesium oxide can be mixed simultaneously.

[0350] The mixing of the aforementioned organic solvent with magnesium oxide can be carried out, for example, by stirring and / or ultrasonic treatment. Furthermore, the stirring treatment can be carried out using a magnetic stirrer or a mechanical stirrer. Using a magnetic stirrer, stirring is easily controlled; using a mechanical stirrer, even with a high viscosity mixture, uniform mixing can be achieved. During the stirring treatment, baffles can be installed in the stirring tank. Installing baffles improves stirring efficiency. Furthermore, ultrasonic treatment can break up any agglomerates of magnesium oxide, resulting in a more homogeneous mixture.

[0351] The preparation of the first mixture can be carried out under conditions where the temperature of the first mixture is preferably 10°C or higher and 40°C or lower, more preferably 15°C or higher and 30°C or lower.

[0352] The surface treatment agents containing silane coupling agents mentioned above have the same meaning as the surface treatment agents used to form the surface treatment layer mentioned above.

[0353] In scheme I, the above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be such that r represents the above formula (2). s Preferably, it is used in an amount of 100% or more and 4,000% or less, more preferably 100% or more and 3,500% or less, and even more preferably 100% or more and 3,000% or less. Furthermore, the above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be used in an amount such that r s Preferably, it is used in an amount of 100% or more, more preferably 4,000% or less, more preferably 3,500% or less, and even more preferably 3,000% or less. By making the above-mentioned r s If the lower limit is within the above range, it is expected to increase the contact probability between the surface treatment agent and the magnesium oxide surface, thus promoting the surface treatment reaction. On the other hand, by making the above r s Within the aforementioned range, the amount of silane coupling agent added is moderate relative to the surface area of ​​magnesium oxide, which can suppress manufacturing costs and maintain thermal conductivity even when mixed with resin, thereby also suppressing exudation.

[0354] In scheme II, the above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be used such that r represents the above formula (2). s Preferably, it is used in an amount of 100% or more and 500% or less, more preferably 100% or more and 400% or less, and even more preferably 100% or more and 300% or less. Furthermore, the above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be used to achieve a concentration such that r s Preferably, it is used in an amount of 100% or more, more preferably 500% or less, more preferably 400% or less, and even more preferably 300% or less. By making the above r s If the lower limit is within the above range, it is expected to increase the contact probability between the surface treatment agent and the magnesium oxide surface, thus promoting the surface treatment reaction. On the other hand, by making the above r sWithin the aforementioned range, the amount of silane coupling agent added is moderate relative to the surface area of ​​magnesium oxide, which can suppress manufacturing costs and maintain thermal conductivity even when mixed with resin, thereby also suppressing exudation.

[0355] The above-mentioned surface treatment agent can be used to achieve the r expressed by the above formula (2). s It is preferably used in an amount of 40% or more and 210% or less, more preferably 50% or more and 200% or less, and even more preferably 70% or more and 150% or less.

[0356] Before mixing the surface treatment agent with the first mixture, the first solution can be allowed to stand for a certain period of time. It is believed that this operation makes it easier for the organic solvent and the first magnesium oxide to be mixed evenly.

[0357] The mixing of the surface treatment agent and the first mixture can be carried out by the stirring and / or ultrasonic treatment. It is believed that by carrying out the mixing by stirring and / or ultrasonic treatment, a more uniform mixture can be achieved, and a more uniform surface treatment layer can be formed in the resulting second magnesium oxide.

[0358] The preparation of the second mixture can be carried out at a temperature above the melting point of the silane coupling agent and below the boiling point of the organic solvent. Specifically, it is preferable to carry out the preparation at a temperature above 10°C and below 40°C, and more preferably at a temperature above 15°C and below 30°C. It is believed that by mixing the surface treatment agent with the first mixture at such a temperature, more uniform stirring can be achieved, and a more uniform surface treatment layer can be formed in the resulting second magnesium oxide.

[0359] Methods for removing organic solvents from the second mixture include, for example, filtration, distillation, centrifugation, and freeze-drying. Filtration allows for efficient removal of organic solvents. Distillation easily removes only the organic solvents. Centrifugation removes organic solvents even if the second mixture has a high viscosity due to its high separation ability between solids and liquids. Freeze-drying effectively suppresses the agglomeration of magnesium oxide.

[0360] The temperature for heating and / or drying the obtained magnesium oxide precursor is not particularly limited, as long as it is below the decomposition temperature of the solvent and the silane coupling agent. The temperature for heating and / or drying the magnesium oxide precursor is preferably 80°C or higher and 250°C or lower, more preferably 100°C or higher and 220°C or lower, and even more preferably 120°C or higher and 200°C or lower. Furthermore, the time for heating and / or drying the magnesium oxide precursor is preferably 30 minutes or higher and 48 hours or lower, more preferably 1 hour or higher and 24 hours or lower. By heating and / or drying the precursor under these conditions, the reaction between the silane coupling agent and magnesium oxide can be promoted, forming a surface treatment layer.

[0361] The aforementioned heating and / or drying can be carried out using, for example, a hot air dryer, a microwave dryer, or a rotary dryer. Hot air dryers are highly versatile and can efficiently perform heating and drying. Rotary dryers are suitable for efficiently heating and drying large quantities of precursors. Microwave dryers do not require a high-temperature heat source, thus easily reducing energy consumption.

[0362] The magnesium oxide disclosed herein can be manufactured by a method different from the manufacturing method in the above embodiments, and the manufacturing method of magnesium oxide disclosed herein is not limited to providing only the magnesium oxide described above.

[0363] The aforementioned magnesium oxide is preferably used as a thermally conductive material, particularly a heat dissipation filler. The heat dissipation filler is used to mix with resin materials, rubber materials, etc., to form heat dissipation components.

[0367] [Methods for measuring torque]

[0368] The ethylene-octene polyolefin resin was heated to 120°C and mixed for 10 minutes. Then, magnesium oxide was added to the ethylene-octene polyolefin resin at a volume ratio of 51:49. The mixture was further mixed at 120°C for 15 minutes, and the torque (N·m) was measured at 30 rpm.

[0371] [Methods for determining viscosity (i)]

[0372] Bisphenol-type epoxy resin and magnesium oxide were mixed at a volume ratio of 70:30. The mixture was stirred at 25°C and 500 rpm for 1 hour to obtain a resin composition. A rheometer was used, employing a disposable parallel plate with a diameter of 25 mm and a disposable cup with a diameter of 80 mm, at a temperature of 25°C, a gap distance of 1 mm, and a shear rate range of 0–20 s. -1 Viscosity (Pa·s) was measured under the condition of a measurement time of 20 seconds.

[0373] In Scheme I, the viscosity of the above composition, as determined by the following method (ii), is preferably 19 Pa·s or less, more preferably 18 Pa·s or less, even more preferably 17 Pa·s or less, for example, it can be 10 Pa·s or more, and further preferably 15 Pa·s or more.

[0374] In Scheme II, the viscosity of the above composition, as determined by the following method (ii), is preferably 27 Pa·s or less, more preferably 26 Pa·s or less, and even more preferably 25 Pa·s or less. For example, it can be 10 Pa·s or more, 15 Pa·s or more, and even 20 Pa·s or more.

[0375] [Methods for determining viscosity (ii)]

[0376] A multifunctional acrylic monomer was mixed with magnesium oxide at a volume ratio of 60:40. The mixture was stirred at 25°C and 500 rpm for 1 hour to obtain a resin composition. A rheometer was used, employing a disposable parallel plate with a diameter of 25 mm and a disposable cup with a diameter of 80 mm, at a temperature of 23°C, a gap distance of 1 mm, and a shear rate range of 0–20 s. -1 Viscosity (Pa·s) was measured under the condition of a measurement time of 20 seconds.

[0377] The aforementioned multifunctional acrylic monomers can be compounds having two or more (meth)acryloyl groups in one molecule. Examples include: ethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, propylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, neopentyl glycol di(meth)acrylate, 1,6-hexanediol di(meth)acrylate, 1,9-nonanediol di(meth)acrylate, 1,10-decanediol di(meth)acrylate, diethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, tetraethylene glycol di(meth)acrylate, and other difunctional (meth)acrylic monomers; trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tri(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol penta(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol hexa(meth)acrylate, di(trimethylolpropane)tetra(meth)acrylate, and other trifunctional (meth)acrylic monomers.

[0379] The magnesium oxide disclosed herein, when mixed with resin, can suppress the increase in torque or viscosity. This could potentially reduce the load on the apparatus during the manufacture of resin compositions or heat dissipation materials, while simultaneously improving the moldability of resin materials containing magnesium oxide.

[0380] In such heat dissipation components, the aforementioned magnesium oxide can be used alone as a heat dissipation filler, or it can be used in combination with one or more other fillers selected from metal hydroxides, metal oxides, and metal nitrides. The heat dissipation filler and other fillers used in the heat dissipation components may or may not undergo surface treatment. That is, these heat dissipation fillers and other fillers may or may not have a surface treatment layer. Furthermore, the shape and particle size of the aforementioned heat dissipation filler and other fillers are not particularly limited. Because the heat dissipation filler using the magnesium oxide of this disclosure undergoes wet processing, in addition to improved durability (thermal conductivity retention) of the heat dissipation component, it becomes easier to mix with resin (viscosity / torque during mixing is reduced), thereby allowing for large-volume filling / mixing. As a result, the load on the device during manufacturing can be reduced, and thermal conductivity can be improved.

[0381] Examples of heat dissipation components include: heat sinks, heat dissipation pads, phase change plates, heat dissipation tapes, heat dissipation gap fillers, heat dissipation adhesives, heat dissipation greases, and sealing materials; and heat dissipation substrates such as heat dissipation insulating sheets and ceramic-based circuit boards. These TIM materials and heat dissipation substrates can be used in automobiles (especially inverters, ECUs, LiB circuits, etc.), mobile devices such as smartphones, communication equipment, communication base stations, electrical products (especially inverters), and LED devices.

[0382] Furthermore, the aforementioned magnesium oxide can also be used as a filler in composites. This filler is used to mix with resins and other additives to form composites. Examples of such resins include: polyolefin resins, polyamide resins, thermoplastic resins such as polyphenylene sulfide resins, epoxy resins, phenolic resins, silicone resins, urea-formaldehyde resins, melamine resins, and thermosetting resins such as unsaturated polyesters.
