Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a composition for preventing the attachment of shellfish and crustaceans.
Background Art
[0002] Shellfish and crustaceans such as barnacles and mussels attach to the bottom of ships and the like, greatly reducing their functions. For example, when these shellfish and crustaceans attach to and accumulate on a ship, unevenness occurs on the surface of the ship's bottom, reducing the propulsion force. Shellfish and crustaceans that attach to the target in this way are called marine fouling organisms, and countermeasures for preventing their attachment have been studied. However, the development of new anti-attachment methods is still eagerly desired.

[0028] Ferric fulvate silica material In this specification, fulvic acid refers to a component among the components constituting humic substances that dissolves in alkali and also dissolves in acid. The molecular weight of fulvic acid is not limited, but for example, those having a weight average molecular weight of less than 10,000 (for example, 7000 or less, 5000 or less, 3000 or less, etc.) can be mentioned. Here, humic substances refer to products obtained by decomposition of dead plants, animal carcasses, etc. in soil by microorganisms. Humic substances usually contain various organic compounds.
[0029] In the present invention, the fulvic acid iron silica material can be produced by mixing a polysilicate iron solution (PSI) in the range of 50 mg to 7000 mg with respect to 1 kg of a fermentation product in which fulvic acid is produced by the fermentation and sterilization treatment of sewage sludge and wood chips, and aging. The production of the fulvic acid iron silica can be carried out according to the method described in Patent Document 2. Specifically, for example, it is as follows.
[0030] In the present invention, as the object to which the polysilicate iron solution (PSI) is added, a fermentation product obtained by the fermentation and sterilization treatment of sewage sludge and wood chips can be used. For example, in the fermentation process for preparing the above fermentation product, harmful microorganisms can be killed or inactivated by adjusting the fermentation temperature and time.
[0031] As the polysilicate iron solution (PSI), a commercially available one can be appropriately used. By using a polysilicate iron solution (PSI) mainly composed of iron and silica, soluble silica and iron can be supplied, and soluble silica and fulvic acid iron can be easily eluted into water and soil, which is preferable.
[0032] The addition amount of the polysilicate iron solution (PSI) to the above fermentation product is 50 mg / kg to 7000 mg / kg per kg of the mass of the fermentation product, preferably 500 mg / kg to 5000 mg / kg. From the viewpoint of suppressing the adhesion of marine fouling organisms, the above range is preferable. Also, in terms of the silica iron (FeCl3 + Na2O·nSiO2·xH2O) conversion contained in the polysilicate iron solution (PSI), it is preferable to add PSI so that it is preferably 3.5 mg / kg to 2030 mg of silica iron / kg of the fermentation product, more preferably 7 mg / kg to 1450 mg of silica iron / kg of the fermentation product per kg of the mass of the fermentation product.
[0033] In the present invention, the d50 (volume average particle diameter) of the ferric fulvate silica material is not limited, and for example, it is 0.01 to 300 μm, preferably 0.1 to 200 μm, and more preferably 1 to 50 μm. From the viewpoints of crack resistance and water adhesion resistance, the above range is preferable. The d50 (volume average particle diameter) indicates the median diameter, and more specifically, it is the particle diameter at which the cumulative particle diameter distribution from the small particle diameter side becomes 50% in the particle size distribution based on volume. In the present invention, the d50 (volume average particle diameter) can be measured by measuring the volume-based particle size distribution by the laser diffraction scattering method using a submicron particle size distribution measuring device "Microtrac MT3000" (trade name, manufactured by Microtrac Bell).
[0034] The content ratio of the iron component and silica in the ferric fulvate silica material is not limited. For example, with respect to 1 part by mass of the former, the latter is 0.5 to 10 parts by mass, preferably 1 to 5 parts by mass. In this specification, the content of the "iron component" means the total content of iron ions released from iron and iron compounds (such as iron oxide) contained in the ferric fulvate silica material. Also, the content ratio of the iron component and fulvic acid in the ferric fulvate silica material is not limited. For example, with respect to 1 part by mass of the former, the latter is 30 to 90 parts by mass, preferably 45 to 75 parts by mass.
[0035] Mixing process The method of the present invention includes a step of mixing the at least one resin component (hereinafter simply referred to as the resin component unless otherwise specified, which is the resin component described in the section of the "at least one resin component").) and the ferric fulvate silica material.
[0036] In the present invention, the blending ratio of the resin component and the ferric fulvate silica material obtained by the above step is not limited. For example, with respect to 1 part by mass of the former, the latter can be used in the range of 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, preferably 0.1 to 8 parts by mass, and more preferably 1 to 6 parts by mass. From the viewpoint of crack resistance, it is preferable that the blending ratio of the resin component and the ferric fulvate silica material obtained by the above step is within the above range.
[0037] The mixing of the resin component and the ferric fulvate silica material can be carried out using a method known per se. For example, a disper, shaker, bead mill, ball mill, pebble ball mill, homogenizer, ultrasonic disperser, kneader, extruder, planetary kneader, etc. can be used. The temperature during mixing is not particularly limited and can be set, for example, in the range of 0 to 60°C, preferably 20 to 40°C. The mixing time is also not limited and can be set, for example, in the range of 0.05 to 5 hours, preferably 0.1 to 2 hours.
[0038] In the step of mixing the resin component and the ferric fulvate silica material in the present invention, the resin component may be used in a state of being mixed with other raw materials. Also, the ferric fulvate silica material may be used in a state of being mixed with other raw materials. Therefore, in the present invention, the step of "mixing at least one resin component and a ferric fulvate silica material" is not limited as long as the resin component and the ferric fulvate silica material are mixed, and may be any of mixing only the resin component and only the ferric fulvate silica material; mixing a mixture containing the resin component and other raw materials with the ferric fulvate silica material; mixing the resin component with a mixture containing the ferric fulvate silica material and other raw materials; and mixing a mixture containing the resin component and other raw materials with a mixture containing the ferric fulvate silica material and other raw materials.
[0039] Examples of raw materials other than the resin component and the fulvic acid iron silica material include, for example, plasticizers. Examples of plasticizers include phosphate esters (e.g., tricresyl phosphate), chlorinated paraffins (e.g., chlorinated normal paraffin), liquid paraffin, n-paraffin, phthalic acid esters (e.g., isodecyl phthalate), polyester resins (e.g., Polysizer P-29 manufactured by Dainippon Ink and Chemicals, Inc.), epoxidized oils (e.g., Adekaizer O-130P, epoxidized soybean oil manufactured by Adeka Argus Chemical Co., Ltd.), polybutene, terpene phenol, polyvinyl ethyl ether, and the like. These plasticizers can be used alone or in combination of two or more. When using a plasticizer, the amount used is not limited, but for example, 0.001 to 1 part by mass, preferably 0.01 to 0.5 part by mass of the plasticizer can be used with respect to 1 part by mass of the resin component.
[0040] In addition, thickeners and the like may be used as raw materials other than the resin component and the fulvic acid iron silica material. Examples of thickeners include organic thickeners such as oxidized polyethylene wax, polyethylene wax, fatty acid amide wax, castor oil wax, and dimer acid ester; inorganic thickeners such as micronized silica, bentonite, silica surface-treated with a silane compound, bentonite surface-treated with a quaternary ammonium salt (organic bentonite), and surface-treated calcium carbonate. These thickeners can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Also, for the addition of thickeners, commercially available products such as DISPARLON NS-30 (containing oxidized polyethylene and fatty acid amide wax) can be used. When using a thickener, the amount used is not limited, but for example, 0.001 to 0.5 part by mass, preferably 0.01 to 0.3 part by mass of the thickener component can be used with respect to 1 part by mass of the resin component.
[0041] In addition, as raw materials other than the resin component and the fulvic acid iron silica material, a solvent may be used. Examples of the solvent include hydrocarbon solvents such as n-butane, n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, and cyclobutane; aromatic solvents such as toluene, xylene, and ethylbenzene; ether solvents such as n-butyl ether, dioxane, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, and diethylene glycol; ester solvents such as ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, and butyl carbitol acetate; ketone solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, and diisobutyl ketone; and alcohol solvents such as ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, sec-butanol, and isobutanol. These solvents can be used alone or in combination of two or more. When using a solvent, its usage amount is not limited. For example, 0.1 to 10 parts by mass, preferably 1 to 8 parts by mass of the solvent can be used with respect to 1 part by mass of the resin component.
[0042] As raw materials other than the resin component and the fulvic acid iron silica material, for example, nutritional components and the like may be used. Examples of the above nutritional components include nitrogen-containing substances, phosphorus-containing substances, alkali metal-containing substances, alkaline earth metal-containing substances, etc., which are generally known as fertilizers for cultivated plants and are effective as nutritional components of seaweeds. Among these substances, there may also be included substances containing two or more of the above atoms, which contain nitrogen, calcium, and trace amounts of other atoms (for example, phosphorus) in combination, such as lime nitrogen, bone meal, and oyster shell powder. More specifically, the following can be mentioned. Nitrogen-containing substances (such as ammonium sulfate, urea, calcium cyanamide, ammonium chloride, ammonium nitrate, ammonium phosphate, metal salts of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), defatted soy powder, chicken manure, cow manure, amino acid salts, guanylurea salts, guanidine salts, oil cake, glyoxime, chemical fertilizers, etc.), phosphorus-containing substances (such as superphosphate of lime, triple superphosphate of lime, metaphosphate of lime, ammonia triple superphosphate of lime, soluble phosphate fertilizers, condensed phosphates, etc.), alkali metal-containing substances (such as potassium chloride, potassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, seaweed ash, plant ash, etc.), alkaline earth metal-containing substances (such as oyster shell organic lime, bone meal, fish meal, oyster shell powder, crab shell powder, calcium carbonate, etc.), etc. For the nutritional components containing the above atoms in combination, for convenience, they are listed representatively in the substance names containing one atom. Each of the substances exemplified above is a part of the nutritional components that can be used in the present invention. As long as it is a fertilizer substance or a nutritional component that contains the above atoms alone or in combination, those other than the above-exemplified ones can be used without particular limitation. These nutritional components can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Among these substances, one kind, preferably two or more kinds of nutritional components selected from nitrogen-containing substances and alkaline earth metal-containing substances are preferably used. There is no particularly strict limitation on the combined ratio of these when using two or more nutritional components in combination. When using nutritional components, the amount used is not limited. For example, 0.1 to 5 parts by mass, preferably 0.3 to 3 parts by mass of nutritional components can be used with respect to 1 part by mass of the resin component. By applying the composition of the present invention to an article to which a material for promoting the growth of algae is added, the adhesion of shellfish and crustaceans to the article can be prevented, contributing to an efficient increase in blue carbon. In particular, it is preferable to blend nutritional components in such an embodiment.
[0043] Furthermore, in the composition for preventing the adhesion of the above shellfish and crustaceans, in addition to the above substances, for the purpose of adjusting paint viscosity, storage stability, painting workability, color tone, antifouling property, and further the state of the paint film and its physical properties, known additives, curing accelerators, antifouling agents, coloring pigments, etc. usually used in paints can also be used.

The material of the substrate is not limited, and examples include resins (such as vinyl chloride, polyester, acrylic, FRP, etc.), metals (such as steel, aluminum, stainless steel, etc.), concrete, rock, wood, fiber, biodegradable fiber, and those with metal coated with resin. Resins, those with metal coated with resin, or concrete, etc. are preferred. The shape of the substrate is also not limited, and examples include plate-like, string-like, net-like, mesh-like, and combinations thereof. The method for applying the coating composition to the substrate is not limited, and for example, an applicator, a bar coater, a spray, dipping, a roller, a brush, flow coating, etc. can be used. The thickness of the coating film is not limited, but it can be set in the range of, for example, 50 to 3,000 μm, preferably 100 to 1,000 μm in terms of dry film thickness. Examples of the substrate include the bottom of a ship, fishing nets, fishing gear, buoys, seawater desalination facilities, water intake pits such as those in thermal power plants, seawater cooling water facilities using seawater in power plants, scaffolds for growing algae, etc. Therefore, in one embodiment, the present invention provides a film for preventing the attachment of shellfish and crustaceans, containing the composition obtained by the above method. In this embodiment, examples of the film of the present invention include the composition obtained by the above method in a dried and / or cured state.
[0045] Also, in one embodiment, by producing a resin molded body using the composition itself obtained by the above method, a resin molded body with suppressed attachment of shellfish and crustaceans can be obtained. Therefore, the present invention provides a resin molded body for preventing the attachment of shellfish and crustaceans, containing the composition obtained by the above method.

The composition of the silica iron-based liquid substance (PSI-025) is as follows. Iron(III) chloride (FeCl3) 5 - 27 wt / wt% Sodium silicate (Na2O·nSiO2·xH2O (n = about 3) 2 wt / wt% (as SiO2) Sulfuric acid 1 wt / wt% Water 70 - 92 wt / wt%. The analytical values of the active ingredients in the obtained "Ryugu no Tsukai" are as follows. Fulvic acid 2,400 mg / L Soluble iron 39 mg / L Soluble silica 105 mg / L The above analytical values are those of the filtrate obtained by filtering 50 g of "Ryugu no Tsukai" through a 5A filter paper after storing it at room temperature for 20 days in 100 ml of deionized water. Fulvic acid and soluble iron were analyzed by Japan Food Function Analysis Laboratory Co., Ltd. Available silica was analyzed using an ICP-MS analyzer at Kurume Research Park Co., Ltd. The obtained "Ryugu no Tsukai" was coarsely pulverized with a 10 L Henschel mixer under stirring conditions of 2000 rpm for 10 seconds, and then finely pulverized with an atomizer FA-SW-1 type at a main rotor inverter frequency setting of 45 Hz (= 1350 rpm) in one pass. This pulverized product was sieved with a sieve having an aperture of 150 mesh using a vibrating sieve machine to obtain Formulation 1. The particle size distribution of the obtained Formulation 1 was measured with a laser diffraction / scattering particle size distribution measuring device.

[0058] Marine evaluation test The test plates for marine evaluation thus produced were fixedly installed using piles in the tidal flat 100 m off the coast of Nagashima-cho, Tamana-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture. The average tidal level of this test site is about 3 to 4 m, and the maximum tidal level is 5 to 6 m. Three months after installation, a crack resistance test and an antifouling performance test were conducted. · Crack resistance test: The coated film was visually observed on the test piece to examine the presence or absence of crack generation. S: No crack was observed. A: Fine cracks were observed in a partial range of the coated film surface. B: Fine or distinct cracks were observed in a wide range of the coated film surface. C: Cracks reaching the substrate were observed. Grade B or above is considered passing, grade A is preferred over grade B, and grade S is the most preferred. · Antifouling performance test A: On the surface of the coated film after being immersed in the sea, the area where attached aquatic organisms such as shellfish and crustaceans adhere is less than 30% of the surface before being immersed in seawater. B: On the surface of the coated film after being immersed in the sea, the area where attached aquatic organisms such as shellfish and crustaceans adhere is 30% or more and less than 70% of the coated film surface before being immersed in seawater. C: On the surface of the coated film after being immersed in the sea, the area where attached aquatic organisms such as shellfish and crustaceans adhere is 70% or more of the coated film surface before being immersed in seawater. Grade A or above is considered passing.
[0059] Water resistance adhesion test The paint compositions of Examples 1 to 4, 7 and 8, and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were each applied to a transparent vinyl chloride plate with a width of 200 mm, a length of 300 mm and a thickness of 2.0 mm made of rigid PVC by an applicator so that the dry film thickness became 200 μm. Then, it was dried at room temperature for 24 hours and further dried at 70 °C for 1 hour to obtain each test plate for water resistance adhesion. After each obtained test plate for water resistance adhesion was immersed in running water at 23 °C for 12 days and then pulled out, it was dried at room temperature for 6 hours. According to JIS K 5600-5-6 (1990), 100 grids of 2 mm × 2 mm were made, an adhesive tape was attached to the surface, and after being rapidly peeled off, the remaining state of the grid coated film was examined, and the water resistance adhesion was evaluated according to the following criteria. For Example 5 in which grids could not be made, and Examples 6 and Comparative Example 5 in which there was no coated film, no evaluation was performed. Grade S, A, and B are considered passing, grade A is preferred over grade B, and grade S is the most preferred. The evaluation results are shown in Table 1 together. S: There are 100 remaining goban-pattern coatings and no edge overhangs A: There are 100 remaining goban-pattern coatings and edge overhangs have occurred B: The remaining number of goban-pattern coatings is 99 or less and some are adhered C: The entire surface has peeled off
