Definitions
- the invention relates to porous metal structures, such as tubes or plates, in which the diameter of the pores in the surface layer is to be adjusted within relatively narrow limits, and to porous metal sublayers, the surface of which is modified in such a manner as to be suitable for applying either ceramic membranes or porous or nonporous metal membranes.
- porous metal structures, plates or tubes are used in many cases in methods in which finely divided solids are separated from liquids.
- porous metal structures are often used.
- particles having sizes up to about 3 ⁇ m can be properly separated from gases or liquids.
- no suitable mechanically strong and relatively inexpensive porous materials are available for this purpose.
- filter materials having fine pores resistant to alkaline liquids are attractive.
- membrane layers completely built up from metals or alloys are preferably used.
- filter elements made from oxidic materials, such as titanium dioxide or zirconium dioxide may also be used.
- porous metal structures are technically made in two different manners.
- the starting metals are those which have a relatively low melting point and therefore sinter at relatively low temperatures.
- a mold of the desired shape and dimensions is filled with preferably globules of the metal of which the porous structure has to consist. In general, good results are obtained with molds of graphite, although, in principle, other materials can also be used.
- the weight of the metal particles is sufficient to bring the elementary metal particles into contact with each other in such a manner that the particles sinter together.
- the atmosphere in which sintering has to take place strongly depends on the metal to be sintered.
- Metals and alloys such as copper, silver, nickel and bronze which can be completely reduced at low temperatures, for instance 600°C, will be heated in a reducing gas stream.
- the oxide layer at the surface of the metal or alloy particles will be removed by reduction, so that a strong metallic bond is formed between the particles.
- the oxide layer present at the surface cannot be reduced with hydrogen.
- heating has to be effected in a very good vacuum.
- a very low residual pressure of water vapor is also essential for sintering very base metals such as aluminum.
- the weight of the aluminum globules pushes away the thin oxide layer present at the surface of the aluminum at elevated temperature, thereby deforming the metallic aluminum, and the metallic aluminum of particles touching each other can come into contact.
- the metallic aluminum readily sinters.
- the work can also be done in an inert gas with extremely low contents of oxygen, carbon dioxide and water vapor.
- porous metals which only have pores less than 2 ⁇ m.
- porous metal filter elements are technically also less attractive, because of the great transport resistance.
- the transport resistance is high.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a coarsely porous metal having a thin surface layer which contains pores with sizes of from about 2 to 0.01 ⁇ m and absolutely no wider pores.
- thin is a layer thickness of from 1 to less than 30 ⁇ m.
- the object of the invention also comprises a coarsely porous metal sublayer, a thin porous layer having pores of from 2 to
- porous metals having a finely porous surface layer completely metallic layers or a ceramic layer will be chosen on or in the pore mouths of the coarsely porous metal sublayer.
- a special use of porous layers is the increase in the selectivity of chemical reactions. In the art, it is desired that the chemical reactions can be used between two compounds which, in case of reaction with themselves, give rise to undesired products.
- An example is the aldol condensation of two different aldehydes. Because the aldehydes can also react with each other, three different compounds are obtained here, of which only one is desired.
- particles having sizes of from 2 to 0.01 ⁇ m of metals or alloys, of compounds to be reduced to metals or alloys or of ceramic materials are applied in the pore mouths of a coarsely porous metal sublayer.
- the starting material for providing the small particles in the pore mouths of the coarsely porous metal will be a suspension of the small particles in a suitable liquid.
- the object is then to cause the suspension to flow over the sublayer in a fairly uniform thickness, thereby preventing the suspension from locally penetrating deeply into the coarse pores of the sublayer, while other parts of the surface of the coarsely porous sublayer do not come into contact with the suspension.
- a uniform distribution of the suspension over the coarsely porous sublayer can be obtained by starting from a suspension of the particles to be applied, the viscosity of which is adjusted by adding agents otherwise known according to the state of the art, such as hydroxy- methyl cellulose or polyvinyl alcohol .
- the viscosity of the suspension is adjusted in such a manner that the suspension does not rapidly penetrate into the coarse pores of the sublayer.
- such a "dip coating" of the coarsely porous metal sublayer with a suspension of the fine particles to be applied leads to the filling of the pore mouths with the small particles.
- the pores of the coarsely porous metal can be filed nearly completely with a liquid or with a waxy material having a low melting point .
- a suspension of the small particles to be applied can then be caused to flow over the filled metal sublayer.
- the pores are filled with a liquid which is immiscible with the liquid of the suspension of the particles to be applied, and which has a density higher than that of the suspension.
- the liquid or the waxy material is removed.
- tubes a waxy material will preferably be used, and the horizontally disposed tube will rotate about its axis. After the outflow of the suspension, the rotation is continued until the liquid of the layer applied has been evaporated.
- the invention also comprises "spin coating" of a porous flat metal body filled with a waxy material .
- particles having a diameter of about the same sizes are required.
- the manufacture of metal or alloy particles having the above sizes is technically known for a number of metals or alloys.
- small iron, nickel or cobalt particles can be prepared. These particles can be magnetically separated from the oil.
- a large series of metal and alloy particles can also be prepared by finely divided application of a suitable precursor of the metal or the alloy to a support, such as finely divided silicon dioxide or aluminumoxide , and reduction of this precursor at elevated temperature in a gas stream suitable for the purpose.
- the sizes of the metal or alloy particles can be controlled by adjusting the load of the support. Sintering of the metal or the alloy is prevented by the support. After reduction, the support can be dissolved in lye, after which a suspension of extremely small metal or alloy particles is left, which in ferromagnetic metals or alloys can be readily separated from the liquid magnetically.
- the same procedure can be used with an inert thermostable support .
- the small particles will now preferably be flocculated. Subsequently, the particles can be separated, and the impurities can be removed by washing. After resuspending the washed material, clusters of small particles are obtained, the sizes of which in the suspension according to the known state of the art to be applied to the coarsely porous metal, can be adjusted to the sizes of the pores of the coarsely porous metal. According to the state of the art, ultrasonic treatment can be used, a liquid flow with a high velocity gradient or a liquid flow in which cavitation is generated. The work can also be done " with a colloid mill or an ultraturrax. Finally, according to the present invention, small ferromagnetic particles can be covered with a layer of another metal, such as copper or silver.
- another metal such as copper or silver.
- complex cyanides with two alloy components are applied onto a support soluble in lye, to prepare small alloy particles.
- Ni 2 Fe(CN) 6 can be applied to, for instance, aluminum oxide. In this manner, atomic mixing of the alloy components in the precursor is effected.
- the starting precursor is one yielding the metal at a relatively low temperature, because at a highly elevated temperature or during a prolonged thermal treatment the small metal particles sinter together.
- the starting material is preferably oxalates of copper, silver, or nickel, which are decomposed in an inert or a reducing gas stream. In this manner, other salts of organic acids can also yield small metal particles. In this manner, small metal particles are obtained which do not cohere strongly and, for instance, can be excellently dispersed by ultrasonic vibration.
- the suspension before being applied to the surface of the coarsely porous metal, is filtered over a fine filter.
- An advantage of starting from metal particles is that no strong shrinkage occurs, which is the case when the starting particles are particles to be reduced to metals or alloys. Nevertheless, it can be advantageous to apply small reducible particles in the mouths of the pores of a coarsely porous metals structure. After heating in an inert or oxidizing gas, the particles applied and fixed in the pore mouths can then be reduced to the corresponding metals. This is excellently done with the oxides of silver, copper and nickel, which can be relatively readily reduced. For silver oxide, heating in the air is even sufficient to effect a reaction into the metal.
- particles are applied which have sizes of from 2 to 0.01 ⁇ m, and which are to be reduced to the desired metal in the pore mouths, after which, if necessary, the material is reduced after a thermal pretreatment in a non-reducing gas stream.
- particles not to be reduced to metals can also be applied in the pore mouths of the coarsely porous metal.
- the sizes of the pores obtained with particles not to be reduced to metals can be more properly controlled. If the sizes of the pores are to be closely adjusted, non-reducible particles will therefore be preferably used, or the particles will not be reduced to the corresponding metals.
- oxides such as titanium dioxide or zirconium dioxide will be used, which are resistant to alkaline liquids.
- Non-reducible oxides such as for instance silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide, titanium dioxide or zirconium dioxide, are very attractive if separations are to be carried out in reducing gas streams at higher temperatures. Small metal particles sinter under such conditions, so that either large pores are formed or the pore mouths are completely clogged.
- metal particles or particles of oxides reducible to metals can be applied in the pore mouths of the porous metal, and then a thermal treatment can be carried out in a reducing gas stream. If the temperature and the gas atmosphere can be adjusted in such a manner as to reduce the surface of the porous metal and of the small metal particles applied, a metallic bond can be realized between the surface of the porous metal and the metal particles. This also applies to the case that reducible oxides are applied in the pore mouths. It has been found, however, that the bond between the metal particles and the walls of the pores of the metal is so strong is that large cracks are often formed in the metal layer.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic view of the metal structure. According to the invention, therefore, a coarsely porous metals structure is used, in which the walls of the pore mouths are covered with a thin porous or nonporous layer of an oxide which firmly adheres both to the pore wall and to the metal to be applied, the alloy or the oxide. As referred to herein, thin is a thickness of less than 3 ⁇ m.
- enamel -forming oxidic compounds are very suitable as bonding layer. It has been found that oxides such as silicon dioxide or titanium - dioxide very firmly anchor both metal particles and oxidic particles to the surface of the pore walls. According to a preferred form of the invention, therefore, porous metal structures are used in which a thin layer of silicon dioxide or titanium dioxide or another enamel -forming compound is applied to the walls of the pore mouths.
- a thin layer of silicon dioxide is applied to the walls of the pore mouths by applying a layer of silicon rubber to the walls of the pore mouths. Pyrolysis of the dried layer of silicon rubber leads to a silicon dioxide layer, which is nonporous after heating at a high temperature and is porous at lower temperature (for instance 600°C) .
- titanium dioxide can be firmly adhered to the walls of the pore mouths by pyrolyzing a layer of the titanium equivalent of silicon rubber.
- a layer of water glass applied to the walls of the pore mouths leads to a strong interaction with metal, alloy and oxide particles .
- the surface of porous metal structures is modified by applying a thin bonding oxide layer to the walls of the pores, after which via “dip coating” the pores in the surface are filled with a thin porous layer of coherent solid particles, the diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the pores in the surface of the metal .
- the solid oxide particles having sizes of from about
- “dip coating” is carried out by using conventional techniques.
- a suspension of the oxide particles to be applied is prepared in for instance a water or a water/ethanol mixture to which for instance methyl cellulose is added to adjust the viscosity.
- the presence of larger conglomerates in the suspension with which "dip coating” is carried out must be avoided. Larger conglomerates lead to a rougher surface.
- the suspension is pre-filtered over a filter having pores of 25 ⁇ m or smaller pores.
- membranes can be used very advantageously which have much narrower pores than those occurring in porous metal or alloys and much narrower than the above pores of from 2 to 0.05 ⁇ m. In this case, pores of from 10 to 0.5 nm are involved.
- dissolved compounds can be separated from liquids, and gas molecules having a different molecular weight or having different sizes can be separated.
- the advantage of such porous materials has long since been recognized, and different materials capable of carrying out such separations have been technically proposed.
- membranes consisting of polymers are generally used for the separation of different gas molecules.
- a drawback of polymeric membranes is the fact that such membranes cannot readily be cleaned by heating the membranes at high temperatures. Nor can, in general, a great pressure difference readily be applied over polymeric membranes.
- polymeric membranes cannot properly be used at elevated temperatures. In particular when the thermodynamic equilibrium is to be moved by selectively removing a specific component, the work must in general be done at elevated temperatures. If membranes are to used at higher temperatures and larger pressure differences, the membranes must be made from metals or ceramic materials. For technical uses, the mechanical properties of metals are, in general, much more attractive than the properties of ceramic materials.
- the above patent application WO 91/12879 proposes to fill the pores of the porous metal with a liquid having a higher density than water. It is also possible to fill these pores with a material having a relatively low melting point, such as a wax or tallow. Subsequently, a sol of a suitable material, such as silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide or titanium dioxide, is caused to flow over the surface of the porous metal, after which the sol is dried after it has optionally been caused to gel . In order to prevent cracks from being formed in the dried layer, drying must be effected very carefully. After the sol or the gel has been dried, the liquid or the waxy material is removed, after which the finely porous ceramic layer is stabilized by heating at a temperature of, for instance, from 450 to 650°C .
- WO 92/13637 proposes to flow a solution of a material like silicon rubber or the titanium equivalent of silicon rubber over a porous metal, the pores of which are filled with a heavy liquid or a waxy material, and to remove the solvent by evaporation. This results in a very thin layer of silicon rubber, which very strongly adheres to the metal surface. Subsequently, the heavy liquid or the waxy material is removed, after which the organic constituents of the silicon rubber are removed by heating in the air or in an oxygen-containing gas stream. The result is a very thin layer, highly porous silicon dioxide, which very strongly adheres to the metal.
- the silicon dioxide contains pores of from 0.8 and 1.2 nm. It is important that the finely porous ceramic membrane layer is formed at high temperatures. When cooling, the layer comes under compressive stress; ceramic materials can take up a compressive stress much better than a tensile stress.
- porous metal sublayers Although the last discussed method yields very good membranes, the quality of the porous metal sublayers is an immense problem.
- the surface of porous metal tubes and plates commercially produced in the above discussed manners is relatively rough, while pores of from 15 to 20 ⁇ m also occur in the surface (to a small extent) .
- a study with a scanning electron microscope has shown that the surface of commercial porous stainless steel structures contains a number of large pores having diameters up to 20 ⁇ m. In qualitatively good structures, few relatively large pores occur in the surface. In order that pores having such sizes can be bridged, relatively thick ceramic membrane layers are required. As a result, the presence of a relatively small fraction of large pores leads to a substantially lower permeability of the membrane layer. It is therefore technically highly important to provide porous metal sublayers containing no pores with sizes greater than about 10 ⁇ m.
- a second main object of the present invention is therefore to provide a coarsely porous metal having such a surface that a thin porous layer of a ceramic material is sufficient to close all the coarse pores.
- Such a modified surface of a porous metal preferably has pores of from 2 to 0.1 ⁇ m.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide porous metals having a surface with pores which are completely or nearly completely closed with thin layers of metals or alloys which selectively pass specific gas molecules .
- FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the metal structure.
- a membrane is obtained the pores of which are so small that a number of gas molecules can be separated by using a difference in transport with Knudsen diffusion.
- more than one layer of silicon dioxide will generally be applied via silicon rubber. It is also very attractive to apply one or more layers of silicon dioxide via sol -gel methods according to the known state of the art.
- the invention also comprises a first layer applied by pyrolysis of a layer of silicon rubber, followed by one or more layers according to a sol -gel method. It is known that by using sol-gel techniques, layers can be obtained the pores of which only pass hydrogen.
- the fact that specific metals selectively dissolve specific gas molecules can be advantageously used to separate gases.
- An example is silver in which oxygen selectively dissolves, while hydrogen selectively dissolves in palladium or palladium alloys.
- a palladium-silver alloy is preferably used.
- a dense layer of a metal (the membrane metal) is applied in the pores of a porous metal modified with solid particles by carrying out "dip coating" with a colloidal suspension of the desired metal. It is also possible to fill the pores of the modified porous metal with a heavy liquid and to allow a sol of the desired metal to spread over the modified porous metal.
- a silver sol is used prepared according to a method published by Carey Lea (Carey Lea, Am.J.Sci. (3) 37 (1889) 476) . This preparation method leads to a very concentrated silver sol . Surprisingly, it has been found that the silver particles preferably penetrate into the pores of the modified coarsely porous metal.
- the modified porous metal surfaces according to the present invention are also eminently suitable for applying oxygen ion conductors. If only transport of oxygen is intended, an electronic conductor is eminently suitable. An opposed electron current then neutralizes the flow of oxygen ions through the layer. If, however, the use in a "solid oxide fuel cell" is intended, then an electronic insulator must be used. Now the oxidic layer will be preferably applied to the pore mouths, while a metal conductor which does not completely cover the surface is applied to the oxidic layer.
- stainless steel filters made by the firm of Krebs ⁇ ge, Radevormwald, Germany, are used.
- the filters consisted of sintered AISI 316L steel (Cr 16.5%, Ni 13.5%, Mo 2.5%, Si 0.7%, C ⁇ 0.02%, Mn ⁇ 0.2% and iron).
- the membrane layers were applied to disks having a diameter of exactly 24.0 mm and a thickness of 2 mm.
- the porosity of the filter was about 40%.
- the disks were arranged in a nonporous stainless steel disk having a diameter of 48 mm and a thickness of 5 mm, in which a cylindrical hole of exactly 24.0 mm was provided.
- the porous disks were arranged in the cylindrical hole of the heated nonporous disk. After cooling, the porous disk appeared to be shrunk leak-tight in the nonporous ring.
- the thus obtained stainless steel structure was thoroughly cleaned by ultrasonic vibration in acetone and subsequently by immersion in a boiling solution of 1.5 molar ammonia with 0.1 wt . % Triton-X in water for at least one hour.
- the disks were rinsed twice with boiling demineralized water and stored under ethanol .
- a silicon dioxide layer was applied to the wall of the pores. This was done by applying from 30 to 60 ⁇ l of a solution of RTV silicon rubber (Bison, Perfecta Int. Nederland) , 4.8 wt . % in ethyl acetate (Merck) or diethyl ether (Merck) to the porous metal disks.
- the silicon rubber layer resulting after drying was pyrolyzed to silicon dioxide in air at 723 K.
- Nickel oxalate dihydrate was prepared by mixing solutions of oxalic acid and nickel nitrate. A solution of nickel nitrate hexahydrate was rapidly added to a solution of oxalic acid dihydrate. The volumina of both solutions were equal; the final concentration of the reactants was 1.0 molar.
- the precipitation vessel was maintained at a fixed temperature of 293 K. After 30 min, the precipitate was filtered off and washed with demineralized water and ethanol. The filter cake was dried for 24 hours at 353 K in stationary air. The resulting material was milled in a ball mill with ethanol for 4 hours, after which the alcohol was evaporated at 393 K for at least 16 hours.
- Nickel oxide particles were obtained by heating the thus prepared nickel oxalate in a rotating oven at a rate of 1 K/min to 723 K in a 100 ml/min 0 2 /A (20/80) stream. After the sample was maintained for 5 hours at 723 K, it was cooled to room temperature.
- the particle size of the nickel oxide particles was determined by scanning electron microscopy and with an optical particle counter, Accusizer 770 Optical Particle Sizer with a detection limit of 1 ⁇ m. The last instrument indicated an average cluster size of 1.5 ⁇ m with a small fraction larger than 2 ⁇ m.
- the BET surface varied from 10 to 17 m 2 per gram. This corresponds with elementary nickel oxide particles of from 0.08 to 0.03 ⁇ m. Scanning electron microscopy indicated that the size of the individual nickel oxide particles was substantially smaller than 1 ⁇ m.
- the nickel oxide powder was milled in a ball mill, suspended in alcohol for at least 4 hours.
- the resulting paste was diluted with ethanol and filtered over a 17 ⁇ m filter (Haver & Boecker) .
- the content of solid matter of the filtered suspension was brought to from 10 to 12 wt . % .
- the suspension was placed in a stirred vessel with deflectors and methyl cellulose (Genfarma) was added until an amount of 2 wt . % .
- the suspension was heated to 328 K with stirring, precisely above the gelling point.
- an equal volume of water was added with vigorous stirring, which led to a dramatic increase in the viscosity.
- the suspension was stirred for 10 min and then filtered through a 25 ⁇ m gauze under 2 to 4 bar pressure.
- the suspension was finally cooled to room temperature.
- the carefully cleaned stainless steel disks were vertically mounted in a dip coating apparatus. A rate of 1 and of 3 mm/min was used. After dip coating, the disk was heated for 5 hours in an air stream of 100 ml/min at 723 K, after heating at a rate of 1 K/min in a special quartz oven. After cooling, the nickel oxide appeared to be very strongly bound in the pore mouths of the stainless steel . The average diameter of the pores was 2 ⁇ m. In order to obtain a total covering of all the coarse pores of the stainless steel, a layer of nickel oxide had to be applied, in general three times, by dip coating. The final thickness of the nickel oxide layer was then from 15 to 20 ⁇ m.
- the pores of the stainless steel were temporarily filled with 1 , 1 , 1-trichloroethane (Aldrich) , after which a solution of silicon rubber (Bison, Perfecta Int. Nederland) of from 8 to 10 wt . % in diethyl ether (Jansen) was flowed over the surface of the stainless steel disk. After the solvent had been evaporated, the silicon rubber film was air dried for at least one hour. After removal of the 1,1,1- trichloroethane, the covered stainless steel disk was maintained in an air stream for 5 hours at 723 K and then cooled. The heating and cooling was carried out at 1 K/min.
- the permeance of the resulting membrane systems was from 7 to 12 x 10 "5 mol/ (msecPa) . From the variation of the permeance with the pressure difference over the membrane system, some contribution of laminar flow appeared to be present. When the number of silicon dioxide layers was larger, a contribution of laminar flow was practically absent. In order to examine the reproducibility of the manufacture of membrane systems according to the invention, four different membrane systems were prepared in the same manner. When there was no substantial contribution of laminar flow, the permeance varied from 1.2 to 5.4 x 10 "6 mol/ (m 2 secPa) . This shows that membrane systems with such a high permeance can be reproducibly manufactured.
