Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a nanodispersion liquid of iron oxyhydroxide that is stable and does not contain components derived from auxiliary components. The nanodispersion liquid of iron oxyhydroxide according to the present invention is a nanodispersion liquid in which particles comprising iron oxyhydroxide as a main component and having an average particle diameter d50 of 0.2 μm or less and a d90 of 1 μm or less are dispersed in a solvent. The iron oxyhydroxide is preferably β-iron oxyhydroxide. The nanodispersion liquid of iron oxyhydroxide according to the present invention preferably contains no other components than a substance derived from at least either of an iron compound and a base, a pH adjusting agent, and a solvent.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A nanodispersion liquid comprising:
particles comprising β-iron oxyhydroxide as a main component that are dispersed in a solvent, the particles having an average particle diameter d50 of 0.2 μm or less and a d90 of 1 μm or less
a substance derived from an iron compound and a base selected from the group consisting of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and calcium hydroxide as a raw material, and
a pH adjusting agent of a strong acid or a strong base having no buffer action,
wherein the nanodispersion liquid comprises no other components than the particles dispersed in the solvent, the substance, and the pH adjusting agent.

2. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , wherein an average crystallite diameter of the particles is 5 nm or less.

3. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , wherein a shape of a crystal of the β-iron oxyhydroxide is granular.

4. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , wherein a part of hydroxyl groups of the β-iron oxyhydroxide is replaced by chlorine ions, and a content of the chlorine is 0.5% by mass or more.

5. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , having a pH of 2.0 to 5.5.

6. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , wherein the solvent is water.

7. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , having an isoelectric point of pH 6.0 to 8.0.

8. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , wherein a solid content concentration of the dispersion liquid is 5% by mass or more.

9. The nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , having a viscosity of 20 mPa·s or less.

10. A method for producing-a the nanodispersion liquid according to claim 1 , comprising a step of wet-grinding a solid comprising iron β-iron oxyhydroxide as a main component.
