Abstract

Treatment effects of dilute hydrofluoric acid (6 wt% HF) on the surface properties of $Al(OH)_3$ were investigated at the molar ratio of F/Al(fluoride/aluminum)=0.15. Temperature and pH variations in the reaction system were recorded to analyze reaction mechanism between $Al(OH)_3$ and aqueous Hf. The reaction of HF to the surface of $Al(OH)_3$ accompanied with a quantity of heat evolution, resulting in increasing temperature of a reactionsystem. And also the reaction was proceeded as transitional state which metastable ${\alpha}-form\;AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O$ was transferred to insoluble ${\beta}$-form. The resulting ${\beta}-form\;AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O$ formed by a surface treatment was identified by FT-IR and X-ray diffractormetry. The formation of ${\beta}$-form aluminum fluoride hydrates with diameter less than $1{\mu}m$ on the surface of $Al(OH)_3$ could be visulaized by SEM imgae, making up a coating layer as precipitate-like. The surface whiteness of $Al(OH)_3$ treated with aqueous HF was furthermore increased approximately 6.6% due to the formation of surface hydrates.

저농도로 희석된 HF 수용액(6 wt%)을 사용하여 $Al(OH)_3$의 표면을 F/Al의 몰비 0.15에서 처리하고, 처리 전후 표면특성을 관찰하였다. 반응계의 온도 및 pH 변화로부터 $Al(OH)_3$에 대한 HF의 표면반응은 HF와 접촉한 $Al(OH)_3$ 표면부에서 metastable한 ${\alpha}$형의 불화알루미늄$({\alpha}-AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O)$이 안정한 ${\beta}$형의 불화알루미늄$({\beta}-AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O)$으로 전이되는 과정으로 진행되며, 다량의 발열을 수반하면서 반응계의 온도상승을 유발하였다. 이러한 ${\beta}-AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O$의 생성은 표면처리된 분말의 FT-IR 및 X-선 회절분석결과를 통해 확인되었다. ${\beta}-AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O$의 morphology와 분포상태를 SEM을 통해 관찰한 결과 $Al(OH)_3$ 표면에 $1{\mu}m$ 이하의 미세분말 형태로 피복층을 형성하며 균일하게 분포된 것으로 확인되었다. HF로 처리된 시료의 표면 백색도는 미처리에 비해 약 6.6% 증가되었으며, 이는 $Al(OH)_3$보다 높은 백색도를 지닌 ${\beta}-AlF_3{\cdot}3H_2O$ 피복 효과 때문인 것으로 나타났다.
