Description
本発明は、複合材の処理方法、詳しくは、樹脂と補強材からなる複合材から補強材を回収することが可能な複合材の処理方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a composite material processing method, and more particularly, to a composite material processing method capable of recovering a reinforcing material from a composite material composed of a resin and a reinforcing material.
樹脂と補強材（ガラス繊維や炭素繊維、無機充填材など）とからなる複合材は、その強度が高いことから釣竿等の小型成形品から船舶等の大型製品まで広く利用されている。特に近年では、補強材として炭素繊維を用いた複合材（炭素繊維強化プラスチック）を用いることにより製品の軽量化が可能であることから、航空機等の構造材に炭素繊維強化プラスチックが用いられている。そして、今後は、炭素繊維強化プラスチックは自動車等の燃費向上に大きな期待が寄せられている。
炭素繊維強化プラスチックの補強材である炭素繊維は、現在数万トンの生産量であるが、２０２０年にはその需要量が１０〜１５万トンまで拡大し、その後も更に生産量が増えることが予想されている。しかしながら、炭素繊維の製造には膨大なエネルギーが必要であり、環境負荷の観点から、炭素繊維強化プラスチックをリサイクル（特にマテリアルリサイクル）できることが必要である。炭素繊維強化プラスチックスのリサイクル技術は用途限定で実用化されているものの、マテリアルリサイクルにより、自動車や航空機の部品として繰り返し使用することができる技術としては、現時点において実用化されていない。
A composite material composed of a resin and a reinforcing material (glass fiber, carbon fiber, inorganic filler, etc.) is widely used from a small molded product such as a fishing rod to a large product such as a ship because of its high strength. In recent years, carbon fiber reinforced plastics have been used for structural materials such as aircraft because it is possible to reduce the weight of products by using composite materials (carbon fiber reinforced plastics) using carbon fibers as reinforcing materials. . In the future, carbon fiber reinforced plastic is highly expected to improve the fuel consumption of automobiles and the like.
Carbon fiber, which is a reinforcing material for carbon fiber reinforced plastics, currently has a production volume of tens of thousands of tons. In 2020, the demand will increase to 100,000 to 150,000 tons, and the production volume will increase further thereafter. Expected. However, the production of carbon fiber requires enormous energy, and from the viewpoint of environmental impact, it is necessary to be able to recycle (particularly material recycling) carbon fiber reinforced plastic. Although carbon fiber reinforced plastics recycling technology has been put into practical use for limited applications, it has not been put into practical use as a technology that can be repeatedly used as parts for automobiles and aircraft by material recycling.
そこで、炭素繊維強化プラスチックを含む樹脂と補強材とからなる複合材から、補強材を分離し、補強材を回収する方法として、特許文献１に記載の方法や、特許文献２に記載の方法が挙げられる。
特許文献１に記載の方法は、複合材を高温で樹脂を燃焼・分解し、回収した無機物を強化材の原料とするものである。特許文献２に記載の方法は、炭素繊維複合材料を用いて、電解処理による陽極酸化でマトリックスを分解させ、炭素繊維を回収するものである。
Therefore, as a method for separating the reinforcing material from the composite material including the resin containing carbon fiber reinforced plastic and the reinforcing material and collecting the reinforcing material, the method described in Patent Document 1 and the method described in Patent Document 2 are available. Can be mentioned.
The method described in Patent Document 1 uses a composite material that is obtained by burning and decomposing a resin at a high temperature and using the recovered inorganic material as a raw material for the reinforcing material. In the method described in Patent Document 2, a carbon fiber composite material is used to decompose a matrix by anodization by electrolytic treatment and collect carbon fibers.
しかしながら、特許文献１に記載の方法によれば、複合材を３００〜９５０℃に加熱する必要があり、補強材の劣化等の品質上の問題を有するだけでなく、高温加熱による環境負荷の問題も有している。
また、特許文献２に記載の方法では、炭素繊維複合材料を陽極（電極）として用いることから、一度に処理できる炭素繊維複合材料の量に制限がある。これにより、工業的に炭素繊維複合材料を処理する方法としては不向きであるといえる。また、炭素繊維複合材料に電流を与えることから、補強材の劣化等の品質上の問題も生じ得る。
このように、樹脂と補強材とからなる複合材の効率的なマテリアルリサイクル技術は数多く提案されているが、環境負荷をかけずに、効率的にかつ補強材の品質を低下させずに複合材を処理するプロセスは未だ確立されておらず、埋立て処理やサーマルリサイクルに頼っているのが現状である。
However, according to the method described in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to heat the composite material to 300 to 950 ° C., which not only has quality problems such as deterioration of the reinforcing material, but also environmental load problems due to high temperature heating. Also have.
Moreover, in the method of patent document 2, since a carbon fiber composite material is used as an anode (electrode), there is a limit to the amount of the carbon fiber composite material that can be processed at a time. Thereby, it can be said that it is unsuitable as a method of processing a carbon fiber composite material industrially. In addition, since an electric current is applied to the carbon fiber composite material, quality problems such as deterioration of the reinforcing material may occur.
In this way, a number of efficient material recycling technologies for composite materials consisting of resin and reinforcement have been proposed, but the composite material can be efficiently and without degrading the quality of the reinforcement without burdening the environment. The process for treating sewage has not yet been established, and is currently dependent on landfill and thermal recycling.
そこで、発明者は、鋭意研究の結果、酸化性活性種による樹脂の分解反応に着目し、酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液に、複合材を浸漬すれば、上述した問題はすべて解消されることを知見し、この発明を完成させた。 Therefore, as a result of earnest research, the inventor pays attention to the decomposition reaction of the resin by the oxidative active species, and if the composite material is immersed in the treatment solution containing the oxidative active species, all the above-mentioned problems are solved. The present invention was completed.
この発明は、環境負荷をかけずに、効率的にかつ補強材の品質を低下させずに複合材を処理するプロセスを提供することを目的とする An object of the present invention is to provide a process for treating a composite material efficiently and without degrading the quality of a reinforcing material without applying an environmental load.
請求項１に記載の発明は、硫酸溶液を電気分解することにより得られた酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液に、樹脂と補強材とからなる複合材を浸漬することにより、前記樹脂が水と二酸化炭素とに分解し、分解後の分解物が該処理用溶液に溶解され、その後、前記補強材を前記処理用溶液から取り出すことを特徴とする複合材の処理方法である。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, by immersing a composite material composed of a resin and a reinforcing material in a treatment solution containing an oxidative active species obtained by electrolyzing a sulfuric acid solution, the resin becomes water. And the carbon dioxide, the decomposed product is dissolved in the processing solution, and then the reinforcing material is taken out from the processing solution.
酸化性活性種とは、所定電流、所定電圧にて硫酸溶液を電気分解することで生成されるものであり、具体的には、ヒドロキシラジカルやペルオキソ硫酸、ペルオキソ二硫酸等である。
硫酸溶液は、硫酸（Ｈ２ＳＯ４）と水（Ｈ２Ｏ）とからなる溶液である。硫酸溶液中に含まれる硫酸の濃度は３０〜９５重量％が好ましく、さらに好ましくは５０〜８０重量％である。硫酸の濃度が３０重量％未満の場合は、複合材の樹脂を分解するために必要な酸化性活性種の量を得ることができず、樹脂の分解に長時間を要する。なお、濃度９８重量％の濃硫酸においても、電気分解の方法を工夫しさえすれば酸化性活性種を生成させることは可能ではあるが、電気分解の際において電流が流れにくいことから酸化性活性種の生成量が極端に低下したり、電気分解に使用する電極の寿命が極端に短くなることから好ましくはない。
なお、電気分解した酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液に濃硫酸や塩酸、硝酸を加えてもよい。また、処理用溶液に過酸化水素やペルオキソ硫酸のような過酸化物を添加してもよい。この場合、複合材の樹脂の分解速度を速める効果が得られる。
The oxidizing active species is generated by electrolyzing a sulfuric acid solution at a predetermined current and a predetermined voltage, and specifically, is a hydroxy radical, peroxosulfuric acid, peroxodisulfuric acid, or the like.
The sulfuric acid solution is a solution composed of sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ) and water (H 2 O). The concentration of sulfuric acid contained in the sulfuric acid solution is preferably 30 to 95% by weight, more preferably 50 to 80% by weight. When the concentration of sulfuric acid is less than 30% by weight, the amount of oxidizing active species necessary for decomposing the composite resin cannot be obtained, and it takes a long time to decompose the resin. Even in concentrated sulfuric acid having a concentration of 98% by weight, it is possible to generate oxidative active species only by devising the electrolysis method. However, since the current does not easily flow during electrolysis, the oxidative activity This is not preferable because the amount of seed produced is extremely reduced and the life of the electrode used for electrolysis is extremely shortened.
In addition, you may add concentrated sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, and nitric acid to the process solution containing the electrolyzed oxidizing active species. Further, a peroxide such as hydrogen peroxide or peroxosulfuric acid may be added to the treatment solution. In this case, an effect of increasing the decomposition rate of the composite resin can be obtained.
硫酸溶液の電気分解では、白金電極やカーボン電極等が使用できるが、濃度の高い硫酸溶液の電気分解にあっては、耐久性の面から、金属板表面に薄膜状にダイヤモンドコーティングされたいわゆるダイヤモンド電極を用いることができる。硫酸溶液の電気分解装置としては、ダイヤモンド電極を用いた隔膜式の電解セルを用いることが好ましい。
電気分解の通電条件は、ダイヤモンド電極の場合、電流密度を０．０１〜１０Ａ／ｃｍ２、電圧０．１〜１００Ｖであればよいが、電極の種類、硫酸溶液の硫酸濃度、硫酸溶液の液量等によって適宜変更される。
なお、電気分解は、閉鎖系にて行う必要があり、閉鎖した硫酸溶液循環系にて、所定量の硫酸溶液を循環させながら行うことが好ましい。循環方法としては、ポンプ等を利用して電極面に対して平行方向に５０ｍＬ／分以上の流量で通液する方法、電気分解によって発生するガスの流れに従って対流させる自然循環による方法でもよい。
電気分解の処理時間は、硫酸溶液の量、硫酸濃度、硫酸溶液の流量、通電条件等によって適宜変更されるが、硫酸溶液１Ｌ当たり０．５〜１０時間処理することが酸化性活性種を効率的に生成させる点で好ましい。
陰極液及び陽極液に硫酸溶液を用いて電解する硫酸電解方法の場合は、両極に濃度の異なる硫酸を用いてもよい。特に、本発明では、濃度の高い硫酸を電気分解して得られた酸化性活性種を含む硫酸溶液が複合材の樹脂の分解を促進する上で有効であることから、陽極側の硫酸濃度を高くし、陰極側の硫酸濃度を低くすることが電極の寿命を長くする上で好ましい。
For electrolysis of sulfuric acid solution, platinum electrode, carbon electrode, etc. can be used, but in electrolysis of sulfuric acid solution with high concentration, so-called diamond whose surface is coated with diamond in a thin film form from the viewpoint of durability. An electrode can be used. As an electrolysis apparatus for the sulfuric acid solution, it is preferable to use a diaphragm type electrolytic cell using a diamond electrode.
In the case of the diamond electrode, the electrolysis condition may be 0.01 to 10 A / cm 2 and a voltage of 0.1 to 100 V. The electrode type, the sulfuric acid concentration of the sulfuric acid solution, and the sulfuric acid solution liquid may be used. It is appropriately changed depending on the amount.
The electrolysis needs to be performed in a closed system, and is preferably performed while circulating a predetermined amount of sulfuric acid solution in a closed sulfuric acid solution circulation system. As a circulation method, a method of passing liquid at a flow rate of 50 mL / min or more in a direction parallel to the electrode surface using a pump or the like, or a method of natural circulation in which convection is performed according to the flow of gas generated by electrolysis may be used.
The electrolysis treatment time is appropriately changed depending on the amount of sulfuric acid solution, sulfuric acid concentration, flow rate of sulfuric acid solution, energization conditions, etc., but it is efficient to treat the oxidizing active species for 0.5 to 10 hours per liter of sulfuric acid solution. It is preferable in that it is generated automatically.
In the case of a sulfuric acid electrolysis method in which electrolysis is performed using a sulfuric acid solution for the catholyte and the anolyte, sulfuric acid having different concentrations may be used for both electrodes. In particular, in the present invention, a sulfuric acid solution containing an oxidizing active species obtained by electrolyzing high-concentration sulfuric acid is effective in accelerating the decomposition of the resin of the composite material. Increasing the concentration and decreasing the concentration of sulfuric acid on the cathode side are preferable for extending the life of the electrode.
硫酸溶液の電気分解するための電源としては、考えられる様々な装置類から電気を調達することが可能であるが、太陽電池のようないわゆる再生可能エネルギーより生成された電気を用いることが好ましい。また、電気分解で発生した水素（陰極より発生）と酸素（陽極より発生）を回収して、発電することもでき、原材料として用いることも可能である。ただし、陽極より発生するガスにはオゾンが数％混在する可能性があることから、酸素と分離して回収することが好ましい。 As a power source for electrolyzing the sulfuric acid solution, it is possible to procure electricity from various conceivable devices, but it is preferable to use electricity generated from so-called renewable energy such as a solar cell. Further, hydrogen (generated from the cathode) and oxygen (generated from the anode) generated by electrolysis can be recovered to generate electric power, and can also be used as a raw material. However, since the gas generated from the anode may contain several percent of ozone, it is preferable to collect it separately from oxygen.
得られた酸化性活性種を含む硫酸溶液を、複合材の樹脂を分解させるための処理槽に供給する方式としては、ポンプ等で電解装置から連続して処理槽に供給する方式（連続式）、閉ざされた系内で硫酸溶液を循環させて電気分解処理後に系内から処理用溶液を採取し、処理槽に処理用溶液を供給する方式（バッチ式）のいずれでもよい。また、採取された処理用溶液を加熱または冷却、加圧できる装置を組み合わせてもよい。
なお、複合材を処理した後の処理用溶液は繰り返し使用することができるため、回収して濃度調節し、再度酸化性活性種を生成させるための電気分解を行うための硫酸溶液として再利用することができる。
酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液は、複合材の樹脂の分解を高めるために加熱することが好ましい。加熱温度は処理用溶液の沸点にも関係するが、好ましくは１００℃以上の温度で加熱して使用することが複合材を効率的に短期間に分解する上で好ましい。加熱温度は、硫酸溶液の沸点以下の温度でもよく、大気圧又は不活性ガス下で加熱される。なお、処理用溶液の加熱の際、加圧あるいは減圧下で行ってもよい。
As a method of supplying the sulfuric acid solution containing the obtained oxidative active species to the treatment tank for decomposing the composite resin, a method of continuously supplying the treatment tank from the electrolyzer with a pump or the like (continuous type) Any method (batch type) may be used in which the sulfuric acid solution is circulated in the closed system, the processing solution is collected from the system after the electrolysis, and the processing solution is supplied to the processing tank. Moreover, you may combine the apparatus which can heat, cool and pressurize the extract | collected processing solution.
In addition, since the processing solution after processing the composite material can be used repeatedly, it is recovered, adjusted in concentration, and reused as a sulfuric acid solution for performing electrolysis to generate oxidizing active species again. be able to.
The treatment solution containing the oxidizing active species is preferably heated to enhance the decomposition of the composite resin. Although the heating temperature is related to the boiling point of the treatment solution, it is preferable to use it by heating at a temperature of 100 ° C. or higher for efficiently decomposing the composite material in a short time. The heating temperature may be a temperature equal to or lower than the boiling point of the sulfuric acid solution, and is heated under atmospheric pressure or an inert gas. The treatment solution may be heated under pressure or reduced pressure.
複合材は、樹脂と補強材とから構成されるものである。樹脂は、複合材として一般的に用いられるものであれば特に問わず、熱硬化性樹脂、熱可塑性樹脂などが挙げられる。これらの樹脂を単独であってもよく、複数の樹脂を混合してもよい。熱硬化性樹脂としては、エポキシ樹脂、ビスマレイミド樹脂、ポリイミド樹脂、不飽和ポリエステル樹脂、ビニルエステル樹脂等がある。熱可塑性樹脂としては、ポリエーテルエーテルケトンやポリエーテルスルフォンのようなスーパーエンジニアリングプラスチック、ポリエステル、ナイロン、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレンのような汎用プラスチックがある。これらの混合物や結晶化物、熱処理物、配向物あるいは可塑剤のような樹脂成分の副成分を含んだものも複合材の樹脂とすることができる。また、複合材の樹脂に改質剤、可塑剤など樹脂の副成分としてよい。
補強材についても、複合材として一般に用いられるものであれば特に問わず、炭素繊維、ガラス繊維、金属繊維、アラミド等の有機系高強度繊維、カーボンナノチューブやセルロース系ナノ繊維のような有機系・無機系のナノ繊維がある。これらの繊維は単独使用であってもよく、これらの繊維を複合してハイブリット系の繊維として用いてもよい。また、充填材（無機系フィラー）を補強材として用いてもよい。しかし、処理後の補強材を高品質のままリサイクルする観点から、複合材は連続した長繊維状の強化繊維を補強材とした複合材が好ましい。また、補強材は無機系のものが酸化性活性種による繊維欠陥が少ないため好ましい。特に炭素繊維にいたっては、酸化性活性種による耐久性が強いためより好ましい。
複合材の形態は特に問わず、処理するために適した形で切断または粉砕した後に、酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液にて処理することができる。
複合材は、硫酸溶液を電気分解して得られた酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液に対して０．５重量％以上、浸漬して、樹脂を水と二酸化炭素とに分解し、分解物を処理することができる。硫酸溶液の電気分解の条件にもよるが、０．５重量％未満の場合であっても、複合材の処理を従来の方法より効率的に行うことは可能であるものの、酸化性活性種を含む処理用溶液が過剰に存在するため、無駄が生じる。
The composite material is composed of a resin and a reinforcing material.

However, from the viewpoint of recycling the treated reinforcing material with high quality, the composite material is preferably a composite material using continuous long fiber-like reinforcing fibers as the reinforcing material. In addition, the reinforcing material is preferably an inorganic material because there are few fiber defects due to oxidizing active species.

Although depending on the electrolysis conditions of the sulfuric acid solution, even if the amount is less than 0.5% by weight, the composite material can be processed more efficiently than the conventional method. Waste is generated due to the presence of excessive processing solutions.
補強材が繊維状の場合、処理後の補強材をその長さを維持したまま一方向にそろえるか、擬似等方性に配向させるか、ランダムに配列させることが、処理後の補強材を利用した複合材の品質を高める上で好ましい。処理後の補強材を一方向にそろえる方法としては、水中あるいは空気中にて一定形状のノズルの中に処理後の補強材を通して補強材の方向をそろえて束ねる方法等がある。擬似等方性に配向させる方法としては、プログラミング可能なロボット等を使用して、繊維の配向方向を一方向にそろえ、樹脂等で固定化する方法等がある。繊維をランダムに配列させる方法としては、ランダムマット製造機を用いる方法等がある。 When the reinforcing material is fibrous, the processed reinforcing material can be aligned in one direction while maintaining its length, or oriented quasi-isotropically, or randomly arranged. It is preferable for improving the quality of the composite material. As a method of aligning the treated reinforcing materials in one direction, there is a method of aligning the directions of the reinforcing materials through the treated reinforcing material in a fixed nozzle in water or in air. As a method of orientating in a quasi-isotropic manner, there is a method of aligning fibers in one direction using a programmable robot or the like and fixing the fibers with a resin or the like.

(Preparation of treatment solution containing oxidizing active species)
Using a diamond electrode having an electrode area of 7 cm 2 , a sulfuric acid aqueous solution was electrolyzed in a diaphragm type electrolytic cell while the electrode was cooled with water to prepare a treatment solution containing an oxidizing active species. The amount of sulfuric acid aqueous solution to be electrolyzed was 50 to 100 mL. Thereafter, the total concentration of the oxidizing active species was measured. About Examples 1-3, the sulfuric acid aqueous solution in an electrolytic cell was circulated in the electrolytic cell using the pump (The diaphragm type liquid pump SIMDOS FEM1.02KT by a knf company).
酸化性活性種の全濃度は、ヨウ化カリウム（和光純薬工業製試薬）と酸化性活性種とを反応させてヨウ素を遊離させ、ヨウ素の全濃度をチオ硫酸ナトリウム標準溶液（和光純薬工業製試薬）にて滴定することによって測定した。 The total concentration of oxidatively active species is determined by reacting potassium iodide (Wako Pure Chemical Industries reagent) with oxidatively active species to liberate iodine.

(Composite processing)
The composite material was immersed in the treatment solution by using the treatment solution containing the produced oxidizing active species. After the immersion, the reinforcing material was taken out from the processing solution and observed, and the resin component of the composite material was not present. From this, it is recognized that the resin constituting the composite material is completely decomposed.
処理用溶液から取り出された補強材について、万能引っ張り試験機（島津製作所製小型卓上試験機ＥＺ ＴＥＳＴ−５Ｎ）を用いて２３℃にて繊維強度を測定した。引っ張り速度は１．５ｍｍ／分である。 About the reinforcing material taken out from the processing solution, fiber strength was measured at 23 ° C. using a universal tensile testing machine (Shimadzu Corporation small tabletop testing machine EZ TEST-5N). The pulling speed is 1.5 mm / min.
複合材の処理における複合剤の種類、繊維体積含有率、仕込み量、処理温度、処理時間については表２に示す。なお、仕込み量は、複合材の重量を処理用溶液の重量で除したものを百分率で表したものである。また、繊維強度測定の結果を強度比（処理用溶液から取り出された補強材の強度を補強材本来の強度で除した値）として表２に併せて示す。 Table 2 shows the type of composite agent, fiber volume content, preparation amount, processing temperature, and processing time in the processing of the composite material. The charged amount is a percentage obtained by dividing the weight of the composite material by the weight of the processing solution. The results of fiber strength measurement are also shown in Table 2 as strength ratios (values obtained by dividing the strength of the reinforcing material taken out from the processing solution by the original strength of the reinforcing material).
（比較例１）
濃度５０重量％の硫酸水溶液１０００ｍＬに濃度３０ｗｔ／ｖｏｌ％過酸化水素水１０ｇを加えて混合溶液を作製した。この混合溶液に複合材を１０ｇ投入し、１５０℃にて５時間処理を行ったが、複合材に変化はなかった。このため、樹脂の分解は生じなかったものと認められる。なお、複合材は、補強材が炭素繊維、樹脂はエポキシ樹脂で加熱成形して得られたものを使用した。
(Comparative Example 1)
A mixed solution was prepared by adding 10 g of a 30 wt / vol% hydrogen peroxide solution to 1000 mL of a 50 wt% sulfuric acid aqueous solution. 10 g of the composite material was added to this mixed solution and treated at 150 ° C. for 5 hours, but there was no change in the composite material. For this reason, it is recognized that the resin did not decompose. The composite material used was obtained by thermoforming the reinforcing material with carbon fiber and the resin with epoxy resin.
（比較例２）
濃度５０重量％の硫酸水溶液１０００ｍＬを１００℃に加熱した状態にて、ペルオキソ二硫酸アンモニウム１００ｇを徐々に添加して、酸化性活性種としてペルオキソ二硫酸を含んだ処理用溶液を作製した。この処理用溶液に比較例１にて使用した複合材と同じ複合材を１０ｇ投入し、１５０℃にて５時間処理を行ったが、複合材に変化はなかった。このため、樹脂の分解は生じなかったものと認められる。
(Comparative Example 2)
In a state where 1000 mL of a 50% by weight aqueous sulfuric acid solution was heated to 100 ° C., 100 g of ammonium peroxodisulfate was gradually added to prepare a treatment solution containing peroxodisulfuric acid as an oxidizing active species. 10 g of the same composite material as that used in Comparative Example 1 was added to this solution for treatment, and treatment was performed at 150 ° C. for 5 hours, but there was no change in the composite material. For this reason, it is recognized that the resin did not decompose.
