Description

結晶性ガラス組成物Crystalline glass composition
 本発明は、結晶性ガラス組成物に関し、より具体的にはSUSやFeといった金属や、フェライトやジルコニアといった高膨張なセラミックスを接着する目的で用いられる結晶性ガラス組成物に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a crystalline glass composition, and more specifically to a crystalline glass composition used for the purpose of bonding a metal such as SUS or Fe, or a high expansion ceramic such as ferrite or zirconia.
 近年、燃料電池(Fuel Cell)はエネルギー効率が高く、COの排出を大きく削減できる有力な技術として注目されてきている。燃料電池のタイプは使用する電解質によって分類され、例えば工業用途で用いられるものとして、リン酸型(PAFC)、溶融炭酸塩型(MCFC)、固体酸化物型(SOFC)、固体高分子型(PEFC)の4種類がある。中でも固体酸化物型燃料電池(SOFC)は、電池の内部抵抗が小さいため燃料電池の中では最も発電効率が高く、また触媒に貴金属を使用する必要がないため、製造コストが抑えられるといった特徴を有している。そのため、家庭用等の小規模用途から、発電所等の大規模用途まで幅広く適用可能なシステムであり、その将来性に期待が高まってきている。 In recent years, a fuel cell has been attracting attention as an effective technology that has high energy efficiency and can greatly reduce CO 2 emissions. The type of fuel cell is classified according to the electrolyte used. For example, as used in industrial applications, phosphoric acid type (PAFC), molten carbonate type (MCFC), solid oxide type (SOFC), solid polymer type (PEFC) There are four types. Among them, the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has the highest power generation efficiency among the fuel cells due to the low internal resistance of the cell, and it is not necessary to use a precious metal for the catalyst. Have. Therefore, it is a system that can be widely applied from a small-scale use such as home use to a large-scale use such as a power plant.
 一般的な平板型SOFCの構造を図1に示す。図1に示すように、一般的な平板型SOFCは、イットリア安定化ジルコニア(YSZ)等のセラミック材料からなる電解質1、Ni/YSZ等からなるアノード2、及び(La、Ca)CrO等からなるカソード3が積層一体化されたセルを有している。さらに燃料ガスの通り道(燃料チャネル4a)が形成され、アノード2と接する第一の支持基板4と、空気の通り道(空気チャネル5a)が形成され、カソード3と接する第二の支持基板5とがセルの上下に固着されている。なお第一の支持基板4及び第二の支持基板5はSUS等の金属で構成されており、ガスの通り道が互いに直交するようにセルに固着される。 The structure of a general flat plate type SOFC is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, a general plate-type SOFC is composed of an electrolyte 1 made of a ceramic material such as yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ), an anode 2 made of Ni / YSZ, and (La, Ca) CrO 3 or the like. The cathode 3 has a cell in which the layers are integrated. Further, a passage for fuel gas (fuel channel 4a) is formed, and a first support substrate 4 in contact with the anode 2 and a second support substrate 5 in which an air passage (air channel 5a) is formed and in contact with the cathode 3 are formed. Fixed to the top and bottom of the cell. The first support substrate 4 and the second support substrate 5 are made of metal such as SUS, and are fixed to the cells so that the gas passages are orthogonal to each other.
 上記構造を有する平板型SOFCでは、燃料チャネル4aに水素(H)や、都市ガス、天然ガス、バイオガス、液体燃料といった様々なガスを流し、同時に空気チャネル5aに空気または酸素(O)を流す。このときカソードでは、1/2O+2e → O2-の反応が生じ、アノードでは、H+O2- → HO + 2eの反応が起こる。この電気化学反応によって、化学エネルギーが直接電気エネルギーに変換され、発電することができる。なお高出力を得るために、実際の平板型SOFCでは図1の構造体が何層も積層されている。 In the flat plate type SOFC having the above-described structure, various gases such as hydrogen (H 2 ), city gas, natural gas, biogas, and liquid fuel flow through the fuel channel 4a, and at the same time air or oxygen (O 2 ) flows through the air channel 5a. Shed. At this time, a reaction of 1 / 2O 2 + 2e → O 2− occurs at the cathode, and a reaction of H 2 + O 2− → H 2 O + 2e occurs at the anode. By this electrochemical reaction, chemical energy is directly converted into electric energy and can be generated. In order to obtain a high output, an actual flat plate type SOFC has a number of layers of the structure shown in FIG.
 上記構造体を作製するに当たっては、アノード側とカソード側に流すガスが交じり合わないように各構成部材を気密シールする必要がある。その目的で、マイカやバーミキュライト、アルミナといった無機質からなるシート形状のガスケットを挟み込んで気密シールする方法が提案されているが、当該方法では微量のガスリークが発生しやすく、燃料使用効率の低下が問題となっている。当該問題を解決するため、ガラスからなる接着材料を用いて構成部材同士を融解接着する方法が検討されている。 In manufacturing the structure, it is necessary to hermetically seal each component so that the gas flowing to the anode side and the cathode side does not mix. For this purpose, a method has been proposed in which an inorganic sheet-shaped gasket such as mica, vermiculite, or alumina is sandwiched and hermetically sealed, but this method is likely to cause a small amount of gas leak, resulting in a decrease in fuel use efficiency. It has become. In order to solve the problem, a method of melting and bonding constituent members using an adhesive material made of glass has been studied.
 上記構造体の構成部材としては金属やセラミックといった高膨張材料が使用されることから、使用する接着材料についても、これらの高膨張材料に適合する熱膨張係数を有する必要がある。また、SOFCは電気化学反応が生じる温度域(作動温度域)が600~1000℃と高温であり、しかも当該温度域で長期間に亘って運転される。よって、接着材料には、長期間高温に晒されても、接着箇所の融解による気密性や接着性の低下が起こらないように高い耐熱性が求められる。 Since a high expansion material such as metal or ceramic is used as a constituent member of the structure, the adhesive material to be used needs to have a thermal expansion coefficient compatible with these high expansion materials. The SOFC has a high temperature range (operation temperature range) where an electrochemical reaction occurs (600 to 1000 ° C.), and is operated for a long time in the temperature range. Therefore, the adhesive material is required to have high heat resistance so that even if it is exposed to a high temperature for a long period of time, the hermeticity or adhesion deterioration due to melting of the bonded portion does not occur.
 ガラスからなる高膨張接着材料として、熱処理するとCaO-MgO-SiO系結晶が析出して高膨張特性を示す結晶性ガラス組成物が特許文献1に開示されている。また、特許文献2には、安定したガスシール特性が得られるSiO-B-SrO系非晶質ガラス組成物が開示されている。 As a high expansion adhesive material made of glass, Patent Document 1 discloses a crystalline glass composition exhibiting high expansion characteristics by precipitating CaO—MgO—SiO 2 -based crystals upon heat treatment. Patent Document 2 discloses a SiO 2 —B 2 O 3 —SrO-based amorphous glass composition capable of obtaining stable gas seal characteristics.

 特許文献1に記載されている結晶性ガラス組成物は、高温粘性が高いため、熱処理時に軟化流動しにくく、緻密な焼結体が得られにくい。結果として、安定したシール性が得られにくいという問題がある。また、特許文献2に開示されている非晶質ガラス組成物は、ガラス転移点が600℃付近であるため、600~1000℃程度といった高温動作環境下では、接着箇所が融解し、気密性や接着性が確保できないという問題がある。 Since the crystalline glass composition described in Patent Document 1 has a high temperature viscosity, it is difficult to soften and flow during heat treatment, and it is difficult to obtain a dense sintered body. As a result, there is a problem that it is difficult to obtain a stable sealing property. In addition, since the amorphous glass composition disclosed in Patent Document 2 has a glass transition point of around 600 ° C., the bonded portion melts in a high-temperature operating environment of about 600 to 1000 ° C. There is a problem that adhesiveness cannot be secured.
 以上に鑑み、本発明は、接着に適した流動性を有するとともに、熱処理後に高い熱膨張係数を有し、かつ接着後の耐熱性にも優れる結晶性ガラス組成物を提供することを目的とする。 In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a crystalline glass composition having fluidity suitable for bonding, a high thermal expansion coefficient after heat treatment, and excellent heat resistance after bonding. .

Here, “CaO + SrO” means the total amount of each content of CaO and SrO, and “TiO 2 + ZrO 2 ” means the total amount of each content of TiO 2 and ZrO 2 . In the present invention, the “crystalline glass composition” refers to a glass composition having a property of precipitating crystals upon heat treatment. “Heat treatment” means heat treatment at a temperature of 800 ° C. or higher for 10 minutes or longer.
 本発明の結晶性ガラス組成物は、熱処理後において、熱処理時に析出した結晶及びその結晶に含有されない残留ガラスからなる。TiO及びZrOは、残留ガラスを構成し、残留ガラスの軟化点を高める成分であり、これらの含有量を上記の通り規定することにより、接着箇所の耐熱性を向上させることができる。また、熱処理時に析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分であるMgO、BaO及びZnOの含有量を上記の通り規制することで、熱処理後、接着箇所が高い熱膨張係数を有し、耐熱性もさらに良好となる。そのため、長期間に亘って高温下で使用しても、接着箇所が融解し難くなり、接着箇所の気密性や接着性の低下を抑制することができる。 The crystalline glass composition of the present invention consists of crystals precipitated during heat treatment and residual glass not contained in the crystals after heat treatment. TiO 2 and ZrO 2 are components that constitute the residual glass and increase the softening point of the residual glass.

Specifically, it means that the content of the corresponding component is less than 0.1 mol%.

The reason for limiting the glass composition as described above will be described below. In the following description regarding the content of each component, “%” means “mol%” unless otherwise specified.
 SiOは、熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分であり、流動性の向上以外に、耐水性や耐熱性を向上させる効果がある。SiOの含有量は45~70%であり、好ましくは46~69%、より好ましくは47~65%である。SiOの含有量が少なすぎると、接着に適した流動性が得にくくなる。一方、SiOの含有量が多すぎると、熱処理時に高膨張結晶が析出しにくくなる。また、溶融温度が高くなり、溶融が困難になる傾向がある。 SiO 2 is a component of highly expanded crystals that are precipitated by heat treatment, and has the effect of improving water resistance and heat resistance in addition to improving fluidity. The content of SiO 2 is 45 to 70%, preferably 46 to 69%, more preferably 47 to 65%. When the content of SiO 2 is too small, fluidity suitable for bonding becomes difficult to obtain. On the other hand, if the content of SiO 2 is too large, high expansion crystal is less likely to precipitate during the heat treatment. In addition, the melting temperature tends to be high and melting tends to be difficult.
 MgOは、熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分である。MgOの含有量は5~40%であり、好ましくは5~39%、より好ましくは6~38%である。MgOの含有量が少なすぎると、熱処理時に高膨張結晶が析出しにくくなり、耐熱性が低下しやすくなる。一方、MgOの含有量が多すぎると、ガラス化範囲が狭くなる傾向にあり、失透しやすくなる。また、流動性が低下しやすくなる。 MgO is a component of highly expanded crystals that are precipitated by heat treatment. The content of MgO is 5 to 40%, preferably 5 to 39%, more preferably 6 to 38%. When the content of MgO is too small, it becomes difficult for high-expansion crystals to precipitate during heat treatment, and the heat resistance tends to decrease. On the other hand, when there is too much content of MgO, there exists a tendency for the vitrification range to become narrow and it becomes easy to devitrify. Moreover, fluidity tends to be lowered.
 CaO及びSrOは流動性を向上させるための成分である。CaO+SrOの含有量は0.1~30%であり、好ましくは1~25%、より好ましくは1~20%である。CaO+SrOの含有量が少なすぎると、接着に適した流動性が得にくくなる。一方、CaO+SrOの含有量が多すぎると、熱処理によりCaO・SiO、SrO・SiO等の低膨張結晶が析出しやすくなり、高膨張特性が得られにくくなる。なお、CaO、SrOの含有量はそれぞれ、好ましくは0~30%、より好ましくは1~25%、さらに好ましくは1~20%である。なかでもCaOは、熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の一種である4CaO・6SiO・3Laの構成成分であり、流動性を向上させる効果が特に大きいという点で好ましい。さらに、4CaO・6SiO・3Laを積極的に析出するためには、CaOの含有量がMgOの含有量より多いことが好ましい。具体的には、CaOの含有量は6%以上、8%以上、特に10%以上であることが好ましい。 CaO and SrO are components for improving fluidity. The content of CaO + SrO is 0.1-30%, preferably 1-25%, more preferably 1-20%.

The contents of CaO and SrO are each preferably 0 to 30%, more preferably 1 to 25%, and still more preferably 1 to 20%. Among these, CaO is a constituent component of 4CaO.6SiO 2 .3La 2 O 3 , which is a kind of highly expanded crystal that is precipitated by heat treatment, and is preferable in that the effect of improving fluidity is particularly great. Furthermore, in order to actively precipitate 4CaO.6SiO 2 .3La 2 O 3 , the content of CaO is preferably larger than the content of MgO. Specifically, the CaO content is preferably 6% or more, 8% or more, and particularly preferably 10% or more.
 BaOは、熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分である。BaOの含有量は5~40%であり、好ましくは5~39%、より好ましくは6~38%である。BaOの含有量が少なすぎると、熱処理時に高膨張結晶が析出しにくくなり、耐熱性が低下しやすくなる。一方、BaOの含有量が多すぎると、ガラス化範囲が狭くなる傾向にあり、失透しやすくなる。また、流動性が低下しやすくなる。 BaO is a constituent component of a highly expanded crystal that is precipitated by heat treatment. The content of BaO is 5 to 40%, preferably 5 to 39%, more preferably 6 to 38%. When there is too little content of BaO, it will become difficult to precipitate a highly expanded crystal | crystallization at the time of heat processing, and heat resistance will fall easily. On the other hand, when there is too much content of BaO, there exists a tendency for the vitrification range to become narrow and it becomes easy to devitrify. Moreover, fluidity tends to be lowered.
 ZnOは、熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分である。ZnOの含有量は5~40%であり、好ましくは5~39%、より好ましくは6~38%である。ZnOの含有量が少なすぎると、熱処理時に高膨張結晶が析出しにくくなり、耐熱性が低下しやすくなる。一方、ZnOの含有量が多すぎるとガラス化範囲が狭くなる傾向にあり、失透しやすくなる。 ZnO is a constituent component of a highly expanded crystal that is precipitated by heat treatment. The content of ZnO is 5 to 40%, preferably 5 to 39%, more preferably 6 to 38%. When the content of ZnO is too small, it becomes difficult for highly expanded crystals to precipitate during the heat treatment, and the heat resistance tends to decrease. On the other hand, when there is too much content of ZnO, the vitrification range tends to become narrow, and devitrification tends to occur.
 TiO及びZrOは、残留ガラスの軟化点を高め、耐熱性を向上させる成分である。また、流動性を向上させる成分でもある。TiO+ZrOの含有量は0.1~10%であり、好ましくは0.1~8%、より好ましくは0.5~6%である。TiO+ZrOの含有量が少なすぎると、残留ガラスの軟化点が低下し、耐熱性が低下しやすくなる。また、流動性が低下しやすくなる。一方、TiO+ZrOの含有量が多すぎると溶融時に失透しやすくなる。また、流動性が低下しやすくなる。なお、TiO、ZrOの含有量はそれぞれ、好ましくは0~10%、より好ましくは0.1~8%、さらに好ましくは0.5~6%である。 TiO 2 and ZrO 2 are components that increase the softening point of the residual glass and improve heat resistance. It is also a component that improves fluidity. The content of TiO 2 + ZrO 2 is 0.1 to 10%, preferably 0.1 to 8%, more preferably 0.5 to 6%. When the content of TiO 2 + ZrO 2 is too small, the softening point of the residual glass is lowered, the heat resistance tends to lower. Moreover, fluidity tends to be lowered. On the other hand, it tends to be devitrified when melted and the content of TiO 2 + ZrO 2 is too high. Moreover, fluidity tends to be lowered. The contents of TiO 2 and ZrO 2 are each preferably 0 to 10%, more preferably 0.1 to 8%, and still more preferably 0.5 to 6%.
 RO(RはLi、Na、K、Csから選択される少なくとも一種)は、ガラス化範囲を拡げてガラス化しやすくする成分である。ROの含有量は、0~5%であり、好ましくは0~3%、より好ましくは0~1%である。ROの含有量が多すぎると、燃料電池の構成部材の接着材料として使用した場合に、高温下の使用でROが揮発し、発電特性が劣化しやすくなる。なお、LiO、NaO、KO、CsOの含有量はそれぞれ、好ましくは0~5%、より好ましくは0~3%、さらに好ましくは0~1%である。 R 2 O (R is at least one selected from Li, Na, K, and Cs) is a component that widens the vitrification range and facilitates vitrification. The content of R 2 O is 0 to 5%, preferably 0 to 3%, more preferably 0 to 1%. When the content of R 2 O is too large, when it is used as an adhesive material for a constituent member of a fuel cell, R 2 O volatilizes when used at a high temperature, and power generation characteristics are likely to deteriorate. The contents of Li 2 O, Na 2 O, K 2 O, and Cs 2 O are each preferably 0 to 5%, more preferably 0 to 3%, and still more preferably 0 to 1%.
 Bは流動性を向上させるための成分である。Bの含有量は0~5%であり、好ましくは0~4%、より好ましくは0~3%である。Bの含有量が多すぎると、耐水性や耐熱性が低下しやすくなる。また、燃料電池の構成部材の接着材料として使用した場合に、高温下の使用でBが揮発し、発電特性が劣化しやすくなる。 B 2 O 3 is a component for improving fluidity. The content of B 2 O 3 is 0 to 5%, preferably 0 to 4%, more preferably 0 to 3%. If the B 2 O 3 content is too large, water resistance and heat resistance tends to decrease. Further, when used as an adhesive material for constituent members of a fuel cell, B 2 O 3 volatilizes when used at a high temperature, and the power generation characteristics tend to deteriorate.
 Alは粘性を調整するための成分である。Alの含有量は0~2%未満であり、好ましくは0~1.5%、より好ましくは0~1%である。Alの含有量が多すぎると、熱処理により2SiO・Al・BaO等の低膨張結晶が析出しやすくなり、高膨張特性が得られにくくなる。 Al 2 O 3 is a component for adjusting the viscosity. The content of Al 2 O 3 is 0 to less than 2%, preferably 0 to 1.5%, more preferably 0 to 1%. When the content of Al 2 O 3 is too large, heat treatment by 2SiO 2 · Al 2 O 3 · becomes low expansion crystal BaO or the like is likely to precipitate, hardly high expansion characteristics.
 Laは熱処理により析出する高膨張結晶の構成成分であり、流動性を向上させるための成分でもある。また、ガラス化範囲を拡げてガラス化しやすくする成分である。Laの含有量は0~15%であり、好ましくは0~14%、より好ましくは0.1~13%である。Laの含有量が多すぎると、溶融中や熱処理時に失透しやすくなり、接着に適した流動性が得られにくくなる。 La 2 O 3 is a constituent component of the high expansion crystal precipitated by heat treatment, and is also a component for improving fluidity. Moreover, it is a component which expands the vitrification range and facilitates vitrification. The content of La 2 O 3 is 0 to 15%, preferably 0 to 14%, more preferably 0.1 to 13%. When the content of La 2 O 3 is too large, easily devitrified when melted or during the heat treatment, the fluidity becomes difficult to obtain suitable adhesion.
 本発明の結晶性ガラス組成物は、上記以外の成分としてY、Gd、Nb、Ta、SnO、WO等をそれぞれ2%まで含有させることができる。ただし、P及びBiは熱処理により揮発しやすく、SOFC構成部材の電気絶縁性を低下させる等、発電特性に悪影響を与えるおそれがあるため、実質的に含有しないことが好ましい。 The crystalline glass composition of the present invention may contain up to 2% of Y 2 O 3 , Gd 2 O 3 , Nb 2 O 5 , Ta 2 O 5 , SnO 2 , WO 3 and the like as components other than the above. it can. However, P 2 O 5 and Bi 2 O 3 are preferably not substantially contained because they tend to volatilize by heat treatment and may adversely affect the power generation characteristics such as lowering the electrical insulation properties of the SOFC constituent members.
 以上のような組成を有する結晶性ガラス組成物は、熱処理すると高膨張結晶を析出する性質を有する。高膨張結晶としては、MgO・SiO、BaO・2MgO・2SiO、2SiO・2ZnO・BaO、4CaO・6SiO・3La及びMgO・CaO・2SiOから選択される少なくとも一種が挙げられる。熱処理後の結晶性ガラス組成物の30~700℃の温度範囲における熱膨張係数は、70×10-7/℃以上、特に80×10-7/℃以上であることが好ましい。上限は特に限定されないが、現実的には150×10-7/℃以下である。なお、本発明の結晶性ガラス組成物は、熱処理後に高い結晶化度が得られやすい。また、析出する結晶は融点が高く、再度熱処理を行っても流動しにくいため、長期に亘って耐熱性を維持することができる。 The crystalline glass composition having the above composition has the property of precipitating highly expanded crystals upon heat treatment. As the high expansion crystal include at least one selected MgO · SiO 2, BaO · 2MgO · 2SiO 2, 2SiO 2 · 2ZnO · BaO, from 4CaO · 6SiO 2 · 3La 2 O 3 and MgO · CaO · 2SiO 2 . The thermal expansion coefficient of the crystalline glass composition after heat treatment in the temperature range of 30 to 700 ° C. is preferably 70 × 10 −7 / ° C. or more, particularly preferably 80 × 10 −7 / ° C. or more. The upper limit is not particularly limited, but is practically 150 × 10 −7 / ° C. or less. Note that the crystalline glass composition of the present invention tends to have a high crystallinity after heat treatment. In addition, precipitated crystals have a high melting point and are difficult to flow even when heat-treated again, so that heat resistance can be maintained over a long period of time.
 ちなみに、熱処理時に4CaO・6SiO・3Laが析出すると、4CaO・6SiO・3Laが結晶核となり他の高膨張結晶の析出を促進するため、結晶性ガラス組成物が熱処理後に高い結晶化度を有しやすくなる。 Incidentally, when 4CaO · 6SiO 2 · 3La 2 O 3 is deposited during the heat treatment, since the 4CaO · 6SiO 2 · 3La 2 O 3 to promote the precipitation of other high expansion crystal becomes crystal nuclei, crystalline glass composition after heat treatment It tends to have a high crystallinity.

You may add and use powders, such as 3 ), as a filler powder. The addition amount of the filler powder is preferably 0 to 10 parts by mass, 0.1 to 9 parts by mass, particularly 1 to 8 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the crystalline glass composition. When there is too much addition amount of filler powder, fluidity | liquidity will fall easily. It is preferable to use a filler powder having a d50 particle size of about 0.2 to 20 μm.

 各試料は次のようにして作製した。 Each sample was prepared as follows.
 表中の各組成になるように調合した原料を1400~1600℃で約2時間溶融した後、一対のローラー間に流し出してフィルム状に成形した。得られたフィルム状成形物をボールミルにて粉砕し、分級して、粒度(d50)が約10μmの試料(結晶性ガラス組成物粉末)を得た。 The raw materials prepared so as to have the respective compositions shown in the table were melted at 1400-1600 ° C. for about 2 hours, and then poured out between a pair of rollers to form a film. The obtained film-like molded product was pulverized with a ball mill and classified to obtain a sample (crystalline glass composition powder) having a particle size (d50) of about 10 μm.
 各試料について、熱膨張係数、軟化点、結晶化温度、結晶融点、析出結晶、流動性について、測定または評価した。結果を表1及び2に示す。 For each sample, the thermal expansion coefficient, softening point, crystallization temperature, crystal melting point, precipitated crystal, and fluidity were measured or evaluated. The results are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
 表から明らかなように、実施例であるNo.1~12の試料は、熱処理時の流動性に優れていた。また、熱処理により高膨張結晶が析出したため、熱膨張係数が78~113×10-7/℃と高かった。さらに、析出結晶の融点が高く、耐熱性にも優れていることが分かった。 As is apparent from the table, Examples No. Samples 1 to 12 were excellent in fluidity during heat treatment. Further, since the high expansion crystal was precipitated by the heat treatment, the thermal expansion coefficient was as high as 78 to 113 × 10 −7 / ° C. Furthermore, it was found that the melting point of the precipitated crystals is high and the heat resistance is also excellent.
 一方、比較例であるNo.13の試料は、熱処理時の流動性に劣っていた。No.14の試料は熱処理により結晶が析出しなかったため、熱膨張係数が58×10-7/℃と低かった。 On the other hand, No. which is a comparative example. Sample 13 was inferior in fluidity during heat treatment. No. In the sample No. 14, no crystal was precipitated by the heat treatment, so the thermal expansion coefficient was as low as 58 × 10 −7 / ° C.
 なお、各特性の測定及び評価は以下のようにして行った。 In addition, measurement and evaluation of each characteristic were performed as follows.
 熱膨張係数は、各ガラス粉末試料をプレス成形し、1000~1100℃で3時間熱処理した後、直径4mm、長さ20mmの円柱状に研磨加工して得られた測定用試料を用いて、JIS R3102に基づき、30~700℃の温度範囲における値を求めた。 The coefficient of thermal expansion was determined by JIS using a measurement sample obtained by press-molding each glass powder sample, heat-treating it at 1000-1100 ° C. for 3 hours, and polishing it into a cylindrical shape having a diameter of 4 mm and a length of 20 mm. Based on R3102, a value in a temperature range of 30 to 700 ° C. was obtained.
 軟化点、結晶化温度、結晶融点はマクロ型示差熱分析計を用いて測定した。具体的には、各ガラス粉末試料につき、マクロ型示差熱分析計を用いて1050℃まで測定して得られたチャートにおいて、第四の変曲点の値を軟化点、強い発熱ピークを結晶化温度、結晶化後に得られた吸熱ピークを結晶融点とした。なお、結晶融点が高いほど、または、結晶融点が確認されなければ、高温下においても結晶が安定に存在していることを意味し、耐熱性が高いと判断することができる。 Softening point, crystallization temperature, and crystal melting point were measured using a macro-type differential thermal analyzer. Specifically, for each glass powder sample, in the chart obtained by measuring up to 1050 ° C. using a macro-type differential thermal analyzer, the fourth inflection point value is the softening point and the strong exothermic peak is crystallized. The endothermic peak obtained after temperature and crystallization was defined as the crystalline melting point. Note that the higher the crystal melting point or if the crystal melting point is not confirmed, it means that the crystal exists stably even at a high temperature, and it can be determined that the heat resistance is high.
 流動性は次のようにして評価した。比重分のガラス粉末試料を直径20mmの金型に入れてプレス成形した後に、SUS430板上で900~1100℃にて15分間熱処理した。熱処理後の成形体の流動径が18mm以上であるものを「◎」、16mm以上、18mm未満のものを「○」、16mm未満のものを「×」として評価した。 The fluidity was evaluated as follows. A glass powder sample having a specific gravity was put into a mold having a diameter of 20 mm, press-molded, and then heat-treated at 900 to 1100 ° C. for 15 minutes on a SUS430 plate. The molded product after the heat treatment having a flow diameter of 18 mm or more was evaluated as “◎”, 16 mm or more and less than 18 mm as “◯”, and less than 16 mm as “x”.
 析出結晶は、ガラス粉末試料についてXRD測定を行い、JCPDSカードとの対比にて同定した。このとき同定された析出結晶種としてMgO・SiOを「A」、BaO・2MgO・2SiOを「B」、2SiO・2ZnO・BaOを「C」、4CaO・6SiO・3Laを「D」、MgO・CaO・2SiOを「E」として表中に示した。 The precipitated crystal was identified by performing XRD measurement on a glass powder sample and comparing with a JCPDS card. At this time, MgO · SiO 2 was identified as “A”, BaO · 2MgO · 2SiO 2 as “B”, 2SiO 2 · 2ZnO · BaO as “C”, and 4CaO · 6SiO 2 · 3La 2 O 3 as the identified crystal seeds. "D", showed the MgO · CaO · 2SiO 2 in the table as "E".
