Therefore, the same reference numerals are used to refer to the same components in each drawing as much as possible to avoid duplication. In addition, each drawing may show an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis. The X-axis and Z-axis form a right-handed three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. Hereinafter, the arrow direction of the X-axis is referred to as the +X direction The direction opposite to the arrow is called the -X direction. The same applies to the other axes. The -Z direction is sometimes called the "upper" or "upper" direction, and the -Z direction is sometimes called the "lower" or "lower" direction. In addition, the planes perpendicular to the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are called YZ planes, ZX planes, and XY planes. However, these directions are used for convenience to explain the relative positional relationship. Therefore, these directions do not define absolute positional relationships.

One reaction space in the space (outside the first nozzle 112a and outside the second nozzle 112b) The liquid materials 152a and 152b are configured to be ejected toward M1, respectively. In the generating device 100 according to this embodiment, the multiple nozzles 112 The material supply unit 110 is a part of the material supply unit 110.

The reaction space M1 is filled with a first liquid material 152a supplied from a first nozzle 112a and a second liquid material 152b supplied from a second nozzle 112b. The second liquid material 152b supplied from the nozzle 112b joins the first liquid material 152a. The space includes a central axis of a flow path in the first nozzle 112a and a central axis of a flow path in the second nozzle 112b. This is the area that includes the intersection with the central axis of the flow channel.

[0015] The plurality of pumps 120 includes a first pump 120a and a second pump 120b. The pump 120a is connected to a first liquid material storage section 150a via a first supply pipe 160a.

The second pump 120b pumps the second liquid material 52a to the first material supply unit 110a. The second pump 120b is connected to the second section 150b via a second supply pipe 160b. The second liquid material 152b stored in the liquid material storage section 150b is supplied to the second material supply section 110b. As a result, the first pump 120a pumps the first liquid material 15 to the first nozzle 112a. The second pump 120b pumps the second liquid material 152b to the second nozzle 112b. send out.

This allows the first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b to be supplied at a constant flow rate. Therefore, the first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b can be mixed with each other without being overly mixed. It is possible to react without any delay. For example, a mono pump is used as a non-pulsating pump. Alternatively, a pump with pulsation may be improved to have no pulsation. In addition, the first pump 120a and the second pump 120b may be the same or different. For example, a pump with pulsation can be used. A jar pump or a gear pump can also be used.

As shown in FIG. 4, the support member 170 has a side surface (YZ surface) in the +X direction and a side surface (YZ surface) in the -X direction. The first material supply unit 110a is provided on the side surface (YZ surface) of the substrate 100 and the upper surface (XY surface) in the +Z direction of the substrate 100. The supply unit 110b and the installation units 172a, 172b, and 17 The installation portion 172a and the installation portion 172b are provided in the Z direction. The first material supplying portion 11 is provided at the same height and facing each other in the X direction. 0a indicates that the ejection opening 118a of the first nozzle 112a faces the -X direction with respect to the installation portion 172a. The second material supply unit 110b is disposed so as to face the second material supply unit 110b with respect to the installation unit 172b. The nozzle 112b is arranged so that the ejection opening 118b faces the +X direction. The first nozzle 112a of the material supply unit 110a and the second nozzle 11 2b are arranged to face each other in the X direction. More specifically, the first material supply The first nozzle 112a of the material supply unit 110a and the second nozzle 112b of the material supply unit 110b The center of the opening 118a (the center in a cross section perpendicular to the X direction) and the center of the opening 118b The opening 118a is arranged so that the line connecting the openings 118a and 118b is parallel to the X direction. The case where the straight line connecting the center of the opening 118b and the center of the opening 118b is parallel to the X direction is However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the central axis (opening) of the flow path of the first material supply unit 110a may be the axis perpendicular to the opening 118a) and the central axis of the flow passage of the second material supply unit 110b (the axis perpendicular to the opening 118a) The axis perpendicular to the first material supply may be inclined with respect to the X direction. The central axis of the first material supply unit 110a and the central axis of the second material supply unit 110b are aligned along the X-axis (the axis extending in the X-direction). It may be tilted by ±10° relative to the

[0022] In addition, a mixing gap 174 is provided on the lower surface side of the support member 170 in the -Z direction. The space 174 is provided with a first material 152a supplied from the first material supply unit 110a and a second material supply unit 152b. The mixing space 174 reacts with the second material 152b supplied from the supply unit 110b. is provided so as to open downward (in the -Z direction) of the support member 170. In this way, the upper surface (+Z surface) of the mixing space 174 is a cross-sectional view (a cross-section perpendicular to the Y direction (X The mixing space 174 has a generally semicircular shape that is convex upward in the +Z direction. The inner surface of the mixing chamber has a semi-spherical surface that is convex upward. The opening 174a of the joining space 174 is circular.

[0023] FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of the reaction that proceeds inside the support member 170. In this way, the first material fed from the first nozzle 112a of the first material supply unit 110a in the −X direction is The liquid material 152a is fed in the +X direction from the second nozzle 112b of the second material supply unit 110b. The second liquid material 152b is mixed with the first liquid material 152b in the mixing space 174 of the support member 170. The first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b collide in a reaction space M1 including a joining point. In this embodiment, the first liquid material 152a contains a metal salt, and the second liquid material 15 The first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b include an organic compound. As a result, the metal salt in the first liquid material 152a and the organic compound in the second liquid material 152b are mixed. The reaction is carried out to generate a substance that will become the core of the organometallic complex as a reaction product. At this time, in the generating device 100, the air injection unit 140 injects the air into the mixing space 174. Air is injected into the reaction space M1 in the -Z direction. The substance that becomes the core of the organometallic complex generated by the collision with the second liquid material 152b is in the -Z direction. The core material of the organometallic complex is blown away in the direction of the opening 174a of the mixing space 174. The reaction product is discharged from the support member 170 in the -Z direction to the outside. The substance that becomes the core of the organometallic complex is collected by the collection unit 13 provided in the −Z direction of the support member 170. It is retrieved by 0.

[0024] The following describes the effects of the generating device 100 according to this embodiment.

[0025] Conventionally, various methods have been used to generate reaction products. For example, In the case where a metal salt is reacted with an organic compound to produce an organometallic complex as a product, For example, the solvothermal method and the autoclave method have been used. Liquid materials containing metal salts and liquid materials containing organic compounds were mixed using the autoclave method and the autoclave method. A batch synthesis method in which the and are reacted in a vessel heated and pressurized to a specified temperature and pressure. Organometallic complexes can be formed.

[0026] In addition, methods for generating organometallic complexes include the solvothermal method and the autoclave method. In the past, microreactor methods have been considered. A microchannel having an inner diameter of several tens of nanometers to several millimeters is formed on a ceramic substrate. Two reactant fluids are then passed through the interface, where a chemical reaction occurs. The microreactor method is a method for producing a reaction product by However, it is possible to produce nano-level organometallic complexes with uniform molecular diameters. Due to the reactor structure, which is characterized by its small diameter (e.g. 60 μm), Blockages may occur in the

[0027] In the generation device 100 according to this embodiment, the plurality of nozzles 112a and 112b Each of them sprays liquid material toward one reaction space M1 in the outer space. In such a configuration, the reaction products generated by the collision of the liquid materials are It is generated in the large space outside each nozzle, not inside, which can lead to clogging. Never.

[0028] In addition, in the microreactor method, for example, clogging occurs in the reaction path. It is considered that the productivity of the reaction product may decrease when the reaction mixture is heated. In the case of 100, the occurrence of clogging can be suppressed, and as a result, the productivity of the reaction product can be increased. It can also be improved.

[0029] In the production device 100 according to this embodiment, the first pump 120a and the second pump The first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b are continuously dispensed by the tap 120b. Since the reaction product can be continuously produced, the reaction product can be continuously produced. In the Bose-thermal and autoclave processes, a relatively large amount of reaction product can be produced at one time. However, because it is a batch type, continuous production is not possible. The apparatus 100, with the above-mentioned configuration, is capable of continuously producing the pulp and paper while improving productivity compared to the conventional method. This becomes possible.

[0030] Furthermore, the generating device 100 according to this embodiment is provided with an air injection unit 140. In the generation device 100 according to this embodiment, the reaction is performed by the air injection unit 140. Air is sprayed toward the space M1, which produces reaction products of a more uniform size. The reaction can be carried out by batch methods such as the solvothermal method and the autoclave method. In this case, the reaction product is generated by the collision of the liquid material 152a and the liquid material 152b. The core substances of an organometallic complex may further bond together to become larger. However, in the production device 100 according to this embodiment, a reaction that produces a reaction product is carried out. By injecting air into the reaction space M1, adhesion of reaction products to each other is suppressed. This allows the reaction products to be more uniform in size. It is also possible to suppress variation in the size of the reaction products produced.

[0031] In the generating apparatus 100 according to this embodiment, the first nozzle 1 of the first material supply unit 110a The nozzle 12a is configured to eject the first liquid material 152a at a first flow rate, which is a constant flow rate. Similarly, the second nozzle 112 of the second material supply unit 110b may be configured. b is a second pump 1 so as to inject the second liquid material 152b at a second flow rate which is a constant flow rate. 50b may be configured. The first flow rate and the second flow rate may be, for example, predetermined flow rates. At this time, the first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b are supplied at a constant flow rate. Therefore, it is possible to react with each other without excess or deficiency. For example, the flow rate is 200 ml / 5 min (40 ml per minute). In this case, the flow rate does not have to be constant. For example, the flow rate may be dynamically changed. .

[0032] In this embodiment, the first liquid material 152a is sprayed from the first nozzle 112a. The injection pressure and the injection pressure at which the second liquid material 152b is injected from the second nozzle 112b are both This is set to be larger than the pressure at which air is injected from the air injection unit 140. As a result, the first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b collide with each other and react with each other. This can prevent the air from being blown away by the air injected by the air injection unit 140. The ejection pressure of the first liquid material 152a and the ejection pressure of the second liquid material 152b can be adjusted. The injection pressure is controlled by the first pump 150a and the second pump 152b, respectively. This is also fine.

[0033] In the generating apparatus 100 according to this embodiment, the first nozzle 1 of the first material supply unit 110a The injection opening 118a of the second nozzle 112b of the second material supply unit 110b is The distance between the opening 118b and the opening 118c is 0.05 mm or more and 1.0 mm or less (distance D1 shown in FIG. 6). 6 shows the air injection unit 140, the first material supply unit 110a, and the 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view for explaining the relationship between the first material supply unit 110b and the second material supply unit 110b. On a straight line connecting the central axis of the flow channel in nozzle 112a and the central axis of the flow channel in nozzle 112b 6, the distance between the injection opening 118a and the injection opening 118b. As shown, the distance D1 is the distance between the center of the ejection opening 118a and the center of the ejection opening 118b. The ejection opening 118a and the ejection opening 118b are, for example, circular. The center of the injection opening 118a is the center of a circle of a cross section perpendicular to the X direction of the injection opening 118a. The center of the injection opening 118b is the center of a circle of a cross section perpendicular to the X direction of the injection opening 118b. It is.

[0034] When the distance D1 between the ejection opening 118a and the ejection opening 118b is less than 0.05 mm The liquid material 152a and / or the liquid material 152b to be ejected, or the liquid material 152a and the liquid The reaction product generated by the reaction with the substrate material 152b is scattered and is injected into the injection opening 118a and and / or the injection opening 118b, and the first nozzle 112a and / or the second nozzle 11 2b may become clogged. By setting the thickness to 0.05 mm or more, the scattered liquid materials 152a and 152b and the reaction products can be prevented from being scattered. The nozzles (the first nozzle 112a and the second nozzle 112b) are prevented from being clogged due to the composition or the like. In addition, the distance between the first material supply unit 110a and the second material supply unit 110b can be reduced. By setting the distance to 1.0 mm or less, the first liquid material 152a and the second liquid material 152b Therefore, the productivity of the reaction product can be improved. This can be done.

[0035] In the generation device 100 according to this embodiment, the air injection nozzle of the air injection unit 140 The injection opening 148 of the nozzle 142 is the injection opening of the first nozzle 112a of the first material supply unit 110a. The mouth portion 118a and the injection opening portion 118b of the second nozzle 112b of the second material supply portion 110b The distance (D2 in Fig. 6) from the line (L1 in Fig. 6) connecting the The distance may be greater than or equal to 10.0 mm.

[0036] In this embodiment, the liquid materials 152 (first liquid The reaction product ( For example, the number of nuclei of the organometallic complex is reduced, and then the nuclei are blown away by a jet of air as described above. By configuring in this way, further crystal growth and adhesion to each other can be suppressed. This allows the generation of reaction products of relatively uniform size. When the need to reduce the number is relatively small, the space where the liquid materials 152 join together is very small. It doesn't have to be space.

[0037] In the generating device 100 according to this embodiment, the air injection unit 140 is The injection opening 118a of the first nozzle 112a of the supply unit 110a and the injection opening 118b of the second nozzle 112a of the supply unit 110b are With respect to the straight line (straight line L1 shown in FIG. 6) connecting the injection opening 118b of the second nozzle 112b The air ejection unit 140 is disposed in the -Z direction. Therefore, in FIG. 6, the angle θa between the injection direction of the injection opening 148 and the straight line L1 is 90°. However, the arrangement of the air injection unit 140 is not limited to this. , the injection opening 118a of the first nozzle 112a of the first material supply unit 110a, and the injection opening 118b of the second material supply unit The air gap with respect to a straight line L1 connecting the injection opening 118b of the second nozzle 112b of the first nozzle 110b The angle θa of the gas ejection direction may be greater than or equal to 45° and less than or equal to 135°.

[0038] Furthermore, in the generating apparatus 100 according to this embodiment, the first material supply unit 110a The injection opening 118a of the nozzle 112a and the second nozzle 112b of the second material supply unit 110b The diameter of the injection opening 118b may be, for example, not less than 0.1 mm and not more than 1.0 mm. In addition, the first nozzle 112a of the first material supply unit 110a and the second nozzle 112b of the second material supply unit 110b The ejection pressure of the first liquid material 152a and the ejection pressure of the second liquid material 152b from the nozzle 112b are For example, it may be 0.05 MPa or more and 1.00 MPa.

[0039] The distances between the components and the arrangement angles described above are merely examples, and other sizes may also be used. In addition, the liquid material used, the environment in which it is used, and the particle size of the reaction product that is generated can be easily determined. For example, the injection pressure of the air injection unit 140 can be changed depending on the reaction product. The particle size may be changed according to the target particle size of the product and the target variation of the particle size. good.

[0045] (Modification) 7 to 9, a modified example of the reaction product generating device of this embodiment will be described. The reaction product generating apparatus 100 described above has two nozzles 112 (first nozzle 112a and and the second nozzle 112b (i.e., two material supply units 110 (first material supply unit 110a and The embodiment has been described with reference to an example in which the nozzles 112 are provided with the first material supply unit 110b) and the second material supply unit 110c). For example, when a reaction product is produced using three or more liquid materials, More than one nozzle 112 may be provided, and more than two material supply units 110 may be provided. good.

[0046] FIG. 7 is an enlarged top view diagrammatically illustrating the reaction space M1 and its surroundings of the material supply unit 110A of the modified example. 7 is a top view of the material supply unit 110A of the modified example as viewed from the +Z direction. As shown in FIG. 7, the material supply unit 110A includes three material supply units 11 The material supply unit 110a1, the material supply unit 110a2, and the material supply unit 110a3 are provided. A is used when three kinds of liquid materials 152 are reacted. As shown in FIG. The material supply unit 110A includes the material supply unit 110a1, the material supply unit 110a2, and the material supply unit 1 10a3 are arranged to form an angle of 120° with each other. The material supply unit 110a1, the material supply unit 110a2, and the material supply unit 110a3 are a reaction space. They are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of a circle centered around M1. The supply unit 110a1, the material supply unit 110a2, and the material supply unit 110a3 are thus By being evenly distributed, the supporting member 170 equipped with the material supplying unit 110A has three types The liquid materials can be collided and reacted with each other under the same conditions.

[0047] When three kinds of liquid materials are reacted, for example, the two material supply systems described with reference to FIG. In the same configuration as the generating device 100 according to this embodiment, which includes the units 110a and 110b, A solution obtained by combining two kinds of liquid materials is sprayed from the first nozzle 112a, and the remaining solution is sprayed from the second nozzle 112b. It is also possible to eject the two from the nozzle 112b and cause the reaction. Before the solution made by combining the liquid materials is collided with the remaining solution, the first nozzle is The solid product produced by the reaction between the two solutions grows inside the first nozzle 112a. This causes a problem that the solution in the first nozzle 112a becomes suspended and causes clogging. In contrast, as in the material supply unit 110A of the modified example, three kinds of liquid materials are reacted. When the three material supply units 110a1, 110a2, and 110a3 are used, This eliminates the need to synthesize two types of solutions in advance, and prevents clogging inside the material supply unit 110. Therefore, the productivity of the reaction product using the three solutions can be improved. can be done.

[0048] In the same manner as the material supply unit 110A shown in FIG. 7, when four or more kinds of liquid materials are used for reaction, Even in this case, the angle between the material supply units 110 is adjusted according to the number of the material supply units 110. For example, the distance may be calculated by dividing the distance by 360° by the number of nozzles (the number of material supply units 110). Alternatively, the material supply units 110 may be equally spaced apart from each other so as to form an angle therebetween.

[0049] FIG. 8 is a top view, seen from the +Z direction, of a material supply unit 110B according to another modified example. The material supply unit 110B is used when reacting four types of liquid materials 152. As shown in FIG. 8, the material supply unit 110B includes four material supply units 110b1, 110b2, a material supply unit 110b3, and a material supply unit 110b4. 0b1, material supply unit 110b2, material supply unit 110b3, and material supply unit 110b4 are For example, they are equally spaced at 90° angles to each other.

[0050] FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram showing a material supply unit 110C according to still another modified example. The liquid material 152 is used to react with six kinds of liquid materials 152. The material supply unit 110C includes six material supply units 110c1, 110c2, and 110c3, material supply unit 110c4, material supply unit 110c5, and material supply unit 110c6 The material supply unit 110c1, the material supply unit 110c2, the material supply unit 110c3, The material supply unit 110c4, the material supply unit 110c5, and the material supply unit 110c6 are, for example, six They are evenly spaced to form an angle of 0°.

[0051] As another modification, for example, when five kinds of liquid materials 152 are reacted, Five material feeds are placed at an angle of 72°, calculated by dividing the angle by the number of nozzles (5). The sections 110 may be equally spaced.

[0052] Even when reacting three or more kinds of liquid materials, the air injection unit 140 By injecting air in the -Z direction toward the reaction space M1, two types of liquid materials were used. As with the case of using two types of liquids, it is possible to control the particle size of the reaction product and improve productivity. When using a plastic material, as described above, the cross-sectional shape of the injected air flow is rectangular or A circular air injection unit 140 may be used. Also, three or more material supply units 110 may be used. In this case, the air injection part 140 (i.e., the injected air) has a circular cross-sectional shape. It is preferable to use an air jet 140 having a cylindrical (or conical) shape. By using the air injection unit 140 having a circular cross-sectional shape, the cross-sectional shape of the injected air flow can be, for example, The reaction space M1 is supplied with the liquid so that the center of the circle is near the center of the reaction space M1. By injecting air into the liquid material 152 supplied from each material supply unit 110, It is possible to inject air at a relatively uniform injection pressure against the liquid material 152 being injected. This allows the reaction between the liquid materials 152 to proceed relatively uniformly.
