EP 2 940 099 A1 Printed by Jouve, 75001 PARIS (FR) EP 2 940 099 A1 Description [0001] Red-emitting phosphors based on complex fluoride materials activated by Mn4+, such as those described in US 7,358,542, US 7,497,973, and US 7,648,649, can be utilized in combination with yellow/green emitting phosphors 5 such as YAG:Ce or other garnet compositions to achieve warm white light (CCTs<5000 K on the blackbody locus, color rendering index (CRI) >80) from a blue LED, equivalent to that produced by current fluorescent, incandescent and halogen lamps. These materials absorb blue light strongly and efficiently emit between about 610-635 nm with little deep red/NIR emission. Therefore, luminous efficacy is maximized compared to red phosphors that have significant emission in the deeper red where eye sensitivity is poor. Quantum efficiency can exceed 85% under blue (440-460 nm) excitation. 10 [0002] Methods for preparation of the phosphors typically require hydrofluoric acid as a solvent. For example, WO 2007/100824 describes preparation of complex fluoride phosphors using aqueous HF as solvent. The processes utilize significant quantities of this highly toxic material, and alternatives that eliminate HF or at least reduce the amount are economically advantageous. [0003] Briefly, in one aspect, the present invention relates to an HF-free process for preparing a Mn 4+ doped phosphor 15 of formula I +4 Ax[MFy]:Mn I wherein 20 A is Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, or a combination thereof; M is Si, Ge, Sn, Ti, Zr, Al, Ga, In, Sc, Hf, Y, La, Nb, Ta, Bi, Gd, or a combination thereof; 25 x is the absolute value of the charge of the [MF y] ion; y is 5, 6 or 7; and n is 2 or 3. 30 [0004] The process includes combining in an acidic solution, an A+ cation, an anion of formula MFy, and a Mn n+ source comprising a fluoromanganese compound; precipitating a Mn n+ containing phosphor precursor from the acidic solution; and contacting the Mnn+ containing phosphor precursor with a fluorine-containing oxidizing agent in gaseous form, at an elevated temperature, to form the Mn 4+ doped phosphor. 35 [0005] In particular embodiments, a solution of a Mnn+ source in aqueous fluorosilicic acid is added to a solution of n+ 2+ 3+ KF in water to precipitate the Mn containing phosphor precursor, K2SiF6:Mn or K2SiF6:Mn . [0006] Various features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become better understood when the following detailed description is read with reference to the accompanying drawings in which like characters represent like parts throughout the drawings, wherein: 40 FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a lighting apparatus in accordance with one embodiment of the invention; FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a lighting apparatus in accordance with another embodiment of the invention; 45 FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a lighting apparatus in accordance with yet another embodiment of the invention; FIG. 4 is a cutaway side perspective view of a lighting apparatus in accordance with one embodiment of the invention; 50 FIG. 5 is a schematic perspective view of a surface-mounted device (SMD) backlight LED. [0007] In the processes of the present invention, an acidic solution is the medium in which the A+ cation, the anion of formula MFy, and the Mnn+ source are combined to form the Mnn+ containing precursor. Suitable acidic solutions are 55 n+ ones in which both the anion of formula MF y, and the Mn fluoroanion of the precursor are stable. The acid may be of formula Hx[MFy]; examples of suitable acids include H2SiF6, H2GeF6, H2TiF6, and combinations thereof. In particular embodiments, the acid is fluorosilicic acid. [0008] The A+ cations may be supplied as a salt, the corresponding anion for A+ may be fluoride, chloride, acetate, 2 EP 2 940 099 A1 chloride, oxalate, dihydrogen phosphate, or a combination thereof, particularly fluoride. Examples of suitable materials include KF, KHF, LiF, LiHF2, NaF, NaHF2, RbF, RbHF2, CsF, CsHF2, and combinations thereof. In particular embodi- ments, the anion is fluoride. The anion of formula MF y may be obtained from the acid of formula H x[MFy], or a compound n+ such as Cs 2SiF6 or MgSiF 6·6H2O may be used. Fluoromanganese compounds suitable for use as the Mn source yield 5 n+ 2+ the Mn fluoroanion when dissolved in the acidic solution. Examples of suitable Mn sources include K 2MnF4, KMnF3, MnF2, manganese (II) acetate, manganese(II) oxide, manganese(II) carbonate, manganese(II) nitrate, and combinations 3+ thereof. Examples of suitable Mn sources include K2MnF5·H2O, KMnF4, and MnF3, manganese (III) acetate, manga- nese(III) oxide, and combinations thereof. Hydrated forms of the Mn n+ sources may produce low concentrations of HF. 4+ Mn sources, such as MnF4, K2MnF6, and MnO2, may also be used, but may have limited stability or solubility in non- 10 HF-containing solutions, leading to manganese reduction. n+ + [0009] The anion of formula MFy, and Mn source are combined with an A cation and an anion of formula MFy in the acidic solution, and the Mnn+ containing phosphor precursor is precipitated. Fluoride or bifluoride anion, or a com- bination thereof may also be present in the solution; a convenient source of the A+ cation and the fluoride or bifluoride + n+ anion may be the fluoride or bifluoride salt of A , AF or AHF2. In particular embodiments, the Mn source is combined 15 + with the acid, which may also provide the anion of formula MF y, and the A cation is added thereto. In some cases, the A+ cation is dissolved in a basic solution, for example, an aqueous solution of a carbonate or hydroxide of A+. The order of addition is not necessarily the same in all embodiments, and in some cases, the KF solution may be added to the n+ acid solution. Amounts of the raw materials for the MFy, anion, the Mn fluoroanion and AF are determined by the stoichiometry of the reaction to form the precursor. 20 [0010] The precursor may be a Mnn+ containing complex fluoride phosphor of formula III n+ Am [MFz]:Mn III wherein A, M, and n are as defined above, 25 m is the absolute value of the charge of the [MF z] ion; and 30 [0011] One example of a Mnn+ containing phosphor precursor that may be formed as an intermediate in a process 3+ according to the present invention is Mn containing K2SiF6. 4+ n+ [0012] In particular embodiments, the phosphor of formula I is K2SiF6:Mn , and the Mn source is combined with n+ n+ the SiF6 anion and KF to yield the Mn containing K2SiF6. For example, the Mn source may be dissolved in aqueous 35 n+ 2+ fluorosilicic acid and added to a solution of KF in water to precipitate the Mn containing phosphor precursor, K 2SiF6:Mn 3+ or K2SiF6:Mn . [0013] In some embodiments, the Mn 4+ doped phosphor of formula I is sparingly soluble in the aqueous acidic solution and precipitates upon formation. If the phosphor is not sufficiently insoluble in the medium to precipitate, a poor solvent may be added to the solution, causing the phosphor to precipitate. Suitable solvents for use as the poor solvent are 40 those that are not attacked by Mnn+ and include alcohols, ketones, carboxylic acids, and phosphoric acid, particularly acetone. [0014] The Mnn+ containing phosphor precursor may be converted to the Mn4+ doped phosphor by contact with a fluorine-containing oxidizing agent in gaseous form at an elevated temperature. The temperature may range from about 200°C to about 700°C, particularly from about 350°C to about 600°C during contact, and in some embodiments from 45 about 200°C to about 700°C.

Box 13501 Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709 October 2001 Toxicological Summary for Sodium Hexafluorosilicate [16893-85-9] and Fluorosilicic Acid [16961-83-4] 10/01 Executive Summary Nomination Sodium hexafluorosilicate and fluorosilicic acid were nominated for toxicological testing based on their widespread use in water fluoridation and concerns that if they are not completely dissociated to silica and fluoride in water that persons drinking fluoridated water may be exposed to compounds that have not been thoroughly tested for toxicity. Nontoxicological Data Analysis and Physical-Chemical Properties Analytical methods for sodium hexafluorosilicate include the lead chlorofluoride method (for total fluorine) and an ion-specific electrode procedure. The percentage of fluorosilicic acid content for water supply service application can be determined by the specific-gravity method and the hydrogen titration method. The American Water Works Association (AWWA) has specified that fluorosilicic acid contain 20 to 30% active ingredient, a maximum of 1% hydrofluoric acid, a maximum of 200 mg/kg heavy metals (as lead), and no amounts of soluble mineral or organic substance capable of causing health effects.

At the twentieth session of the Sub-Committee, the expert from the United States of America agreed to coordinate the development of requirements for the transport of solid dangerous goods in portable tanks and to lead a correspondence group to review proposed requirements and develop a proposal for submission to the twenty-first session. Many solids are not currently authorized for transport in portable tanks in the Model Regulations. Consignors that transport solid dangerous goods are required to acquire competent authority approvals to transport their solids in tanks which imposes unnecessary burdens and delays. Adoption of this proposal will result in the assignment of tank codes for the majority of solids dangerous goods listed in the Dangerous Goods List that are suitable and safe for transport in portable tanks. In developing the assignments, a rationalized approach was developed (see Annex 1) and other regulations that provide portable tank requirements for solids were considered (e.g. IMDG Code, ADR/RID and 49 CFR). Annex 2 of this paper provides proposed assignments that are based on the rationalized approach that is provided in Annex 1.

  • Analysis of Silicates Materials: a Review
    ANALYSIS OF SILICATES MATERIALS: A REVIEW Nahar Singh and Prabhat K.Gupta Anal. Chem. Section (Materials characterization division) National Physical Laboratory, Dr K.S. Krishnan Road New Delhi -110012 (INDIA) E-mail: naharsinghCcumail.nplindia.ernet.in ABSTRACT The complete analysis of silicates rocks is a tedious job for an analyst because of difficult decomposition procedure and a number of subsequent separation stages. For the analysis of different major constituents in silicates various classical methods are required: gravimetric, titremetry and spectrophotometry but for the analysis of trace elements the instrumental method is preferable. Methods for the determination of major and minor impurities in silicates rocks, coal and fly ash are generally based on the use of acids or fluxing with an alkaline fusion material. Formerly the use of hydrofluoric acid was carried out to decompose silicate material for the direct determination of silica; later on various fusion materials were used for the complete dissolution of silicate materials. After fusion the fused mass can be dissolved in acid or acid mixtures. In the present study a review of the existing methods, as well as some of the old ones has been carried out. INTRODUCTION In earlier times it was the general opinion that minerals and earth have their origin in water, that water is the base of all metals, that rock crystal is formed from purest water and has divine colour and solar heat made it hard. A. B. de Boosdt /l/ and R. Boyle /2/ said that rock crystal is not ice but is a denser product of cold. The ancients knew that fusing sand or rock crystal containing a major amount of silica with salt of potassium or sodium could make glass.

HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION Emergency Overview: Metal wires in varying colors. These products are normally not considered hazardous as shipped. Gloves should be worn when handling to prevent cuts and abrasions. Some of these products contain nickel, which is classified as a skin sensitizer and a suspect carcinogen. Some of these products contain barium fluoride, which is classified as harmful by inhalation and ingestion. Some of these products contain potassium fluorosilicate which is classified as toxic by inhalation, skin contact and ingestion. In the form that these substances are present in these products, they do not contribute to a hazard classification of the product. These products contain quartz, but normally not in an inhalable fraction. Quartz can cause silicosis and may cause cancer. Skin contact is normally no hazard but should be avoided to prevent possible allergic reactions. Persons with a pacemaker should not go near welding or cutting operations until they have consulted their doctor and obtained information from the manufacturer of the device. When these products are used in a welding process, the most important hazards are heat, radiation, electric shock and welding fumes.
