Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention aims to provide cellulose fibers covered by inorganic particles on the fiber surface. According to the present invention, complexes of a cellulose fiber and inorganic particles wherein 15% or more of the surface of the cellulose fiber is covered by the inorganic particles can be obtained.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A complex of a cellulose fiber and inorganic particles, wherein 40% or more of the surface of the cellulose fiber is covered by the inorganic particles, wherein the complex does not include a binder, wherein the inorganic particles are at least partially a metal salt of silicic acid, barium or aluminum or metal particles containing titanium, copper or zinc, and wherein the inorganic particles of the complex are synthesized in a solution in the presence of the fiber. 2. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles have an average primary particle size of 1 μm or less. 3. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles have an average primary particle size of 200 nm or less. 4. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles have an average primary particle size of 100 nm or less. 5. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio between the cellulose fiber and the inorganic particles is 20/80 to 80/20. 6. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a wood-derived cellulose fiber. 7. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a wood-derived pulp fiber. 8. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a chemical pulp. 9. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the cellulose fiber is a pulverized cellulose. 10. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic particles are barium sulfate. 11. A radiation shielding material comprising the complex of claim 10 . 12. A process for preparing the complex of claim 1 , comprising synthesizing inorganic particles in a solution in the presence of a fiber. 13. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the complex consists essentially of the cellulose fiber and the inorganic particles. 14. The complex of claim 1 , wherein the complex consists of the cellulose fiber and the inorganic particles.
