Abstract
Iron oxide direct red pigments, having a colour saturation in the building materials test of more than 45 CIELAB units are prepared by adding either (a) an iron (II) salt solution and metallic iron or (b) an iron (II) salt solution and an alkali solution to a seed suspension and oxidizing with an O2-containing gas, wherein the seed suspension is a suspension of yellow FeOOH star-shaped particles having a specific surface of >100 m<2>g and an average particle size <0.2 mu m. <IMAGE>
Description
2271769 PURE-COLORED IRON OXIDE DIRECT RED PIGMENTS, A PROCESS FOR THEIR
PRODUCTION AND THEIR USE This invention relates to new pure-colored iron oxide direct red pigments, to a process for their production and to their use for pigmenting building materials and ceramics.
There are four known processes for the production of red iron oxide pigments (T.C. Patton, Pigment Handbook Vol. 1, New York 1988, page 288). One of these methods is the direct precipitation of red iron oxides which is described in US-A 2,716,595. In this method, an iron(H) salt solution and an alkali solution are mixed in substantially equivalent quantities and air is passed through the iron(II) hydroxide or carbonate suspension obtained. The iron(III) oxide hydroxide seed suspension thus formed is made up into the red pigment in the presence of iron(II) salt by addition of metallic iron, heating and oxidation with oxygen-containing gases.
It is known from DE-B 1 084 405 that red pigments can only be produced from red seed suspensions and yellow pigments from yellow seed suspensions. Accordingly, the color of the end product is clearly determined by the seeds used.
NExtures of yellow and red iron oxide pigments only give brown and unattractive color tones. US-A 3,946,103 discloses a process using seed modifiers which enables pure red seed suspensions consisting of fine delta-FeOOH particles to be produced.
However, the pigments produced from those seed suspensions show inadequate purity of color so that the pure-colored aesthetic brick red tones required by the market for building materials cannot be achieved.
Accordingly, the problem addressed by the present invention was to provide improved iron oxide direct red pigments which would lead to pure- colored aesthetic brick red tones in building materials.
It has now surprisingly been found that these requirements are satisfied by new iron oxide direct red pigments which are not produced in the usual way from red seed suspensions, but instead from yellow seed suspensions, and which have a color saturation of more than 45 CIELAB units in the building materials test.
Accordingly the present invention relates to iron oxide direct red pigments, characterized in that they have a color saturation in the building materials test of more than 45 and preferably more than 45.8 CIELAB units.
In one particularly preferred embodiment, the pigments according to the invention are characterized in that, in the building materials test, the red component (a) is more than 28 and the yellow component (b) more than 29 CEELAB units.
The iron oxide direct red pigments according to the invention are obtainable by preparation of a yellow goethite seed suspension (alphaFeOOH), addition of iron(II) salt solution and metallic iron or addition of iron(II) salt solution and alkali solution, heating and oxidation with oxygen-containing gases.
It must be regarded as surprising that pure-colored iron oxide red pigments can be obtained by this process because, according to the prior art, only yellow iron oxide pigments can be produced from yellow seed suspensions.
Accordingly, the present invention relates to a process for the production of pure-colored saturated iron oxide direct red pigments by precipitation of iron(H) salts with an alkali solution and oxidation with oxygencontaining gases, addition of iron(II) salt solution and metallic iron or iron(II) salt solution and an alkali solution to a seed suspension and oxidation with oxygen-containing gases until the required color tone is obtained, wherein a yellow goethite seed suspension consisting essentially of stellately branched particles having a specific surface of greater than 100 m2/g and an average particle size of less than 0.2 Rm. is used as the seed suspension for synthesis of the pigment.
The BET surface is determined by the nitrogen one-point method (DIN 66 13 1) while particle size is determined from electron micrographs.
It is possible in the process according to the invention either directly to prepare the seed suspension in the suspension by establishing suitable conditions or to use separately prepared seeds.
The particles of the seed suspensions used in the process according to the )0 invention differ totally in shape from the conventional seeds used for the production of iron oxide yellow pigments.
Figure I shows the typical stellate branches of the goethite seeds used in the process according to the invention. For comparison, Fig. 2 shows a conventional 1. 1 yellow seed which consists of unbranched acicular individual particles and, in the pigment synthesis process, leads to a yellow iron oxide pigment.
The yellow geothite seed suspension (alpha FeOOH) is prepared by precipitation of iron(II) salts with an alkali solution followed by oxidation with oxygen-containing gases.
Z= -13 In one preferred embodiment of the process according to the invention, the seed suspension is prepared by a) forming an aqueous iron(II) sulfate solution having a concentration of from about 10 to 80 g/1 and preferably 20 to 40 g/1, b) c) adding about 0.8 to 1.0 and preferably 0.85 to 0.95 equivalent of an alkaline precipitant to said aqueous iron (II) sulfate solution to precipitate a suspension of iron (II) hydroxide or iron(II) carbonate, and addi2ing the iron (H) hydroxide or iron (II) carbonate by intensively aerating said suspension with an oxygen-containing gas to form a suspension of iron (III) oxide hydroxide of the (x-FeOOH modification.
Iron(II) salts from steel pickling plants and/or from the production of titanium dioxide may be used with particular advantage for the preparation of the iron(II) sulfate solution.
The temperature prevailing during seed formation is preferably in the range from 15 to 40C and, more preferably, in the range from 20 to 3511C.
A suspension of iron(II) hydroxide or carbonate is precipitated by addition of 0.8 to 1.0 equivalent and preferably 0.85 to 0.95 equivalent, NaOH, Na2C03, NH3, MgO and/or MgC03 preferably being used.
Precipitation is followed by oxidation preferably using air as the oxidizing agent. To this end, 20 to 300 liters air per hour and per liter suspension are introduced.
The seed suspension may then be advantageously subjected to ripening for I to 4 hours at 70 to 100'C.
A yellow seed suspension is obtained which, according to x-ray phase analysis (Siemens D-500), consists solely of goethite (alpha-FeOOH) (ASTM No.
29.07133).;" 1;' A quantity of seeds of 4 to 30 g/l, calculated as Ee,103, is preferably used for pigment formation, a quantity of 7 to 20 g/l being particularly preferred.
Pigment formation may advantageously be carried out by two methods.
In the first method, metallic iron and iron (II) salt solution are added to the seed suspension which is then heated to 70 to 100'C and preferably to 75 to 90"C and oxidized by aerating the suspensions with from about 0.2 to 50 1 air per hour and per liter suspension until the required color tone is obtained. This is the case after seed multiplication by a factor of 3 to 15 and preferably 4 to 10.
In the second method, the seed suspension is heated to 70 to 1000C and preferably to 75 to 90"C, iron(II) salt solution and an alkali solution are then added and the suspension is oxidized by aerating the suspension with from about I to 400 1 air per hour and per liter suspension until the required color tone is obtained, the pH value being in the range from 4 to 5. The required color tone is again obtained after seed multiplication by a factor of 33 to 15 and preferably 4 to 10.
The salt liquor can be removed by filtration and washing or by sedimentation. The red paste may be processed to slurries or dried and ground to form a powder-form pigment.
Soft pure-colored iron oxide pigments are obtained. a-Fe203 is detected by x-ray phase analysis (ASTM No. 33.0664).
To test the pigments for applications in building materials (DIN 53 237), pressings were produced from heavy spar. To this end, 0.5 g pigment and 10 g heavy spar were introduced into an approx. 250 ml glass shaking flask. After addition of 200 steel balls 5 mm. in diameter, the contents of the flask were shaken for 3 minutes by means of an automatic table vibrator. The mixture was compressed to form a cylinder.
The CIELAB data (DIN 6174) were determined using a color measuring instrument with an Ulbricht ball (lighting conditions d/8', standard light type C/2"); the surface reflection was included.

Table I shows the colorimetric data of a few pigments according to the invention and, for comparison, the corresponding data of a few commercial products.
The color saturation (C) is a measure of the color purity of the r pigments.
In the building materials test, the pigments according to the invention have higher color saturations than the hitherto known direct red pigments (Bayferrox 100 produced in accordance with US-A 3,946,103 or Pfizer Croma Red RO 3 0970) and the red pigments obtained by calcination of black pigments (produced, for example, in accordance with DE-A 463 773) (Bayferrox 1100).
In building materials applications, the aesthetic brick red tones required are obtained throug the pronounced yellow tinge (b) coupled with the high red gh component (a).
The present invention also relates to the use of the iron oxide red pigments produced in accordance with the invention for pigmenting building materials and ceramics both as powder-form pigments and in the form of pastes and slurries.
Figure I shows an iron oxide seed (goethite) produced by the process according to the invention which, in the pigment synthesis process, leads to a pure colored red pigment. For comparison, Fig. 2 shows a conventional yellow iron oxide seed (goethite) which leads to a yellow pigment in the pigment synthesis process.
Figure 3 shows the CIELAB data of some iron oxide red pigments in the building materials test (plotted in the a-b plane).
The following Examples, which are intended to illustrate the invention without limiting it in any way, describe the formation of the yellow seed suspension and the synthesis of the red pigment.
