The present invention relates to a phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect.
Phthalocyanine pigments are used in various fields because of their molecular characteristics. For example, phthalocyanine pigments are used as a pigment for coloring in the fields of printing, paints, and plastics, as a photoelectric material and a recording material in the fields of electrophotography and recording media, and as a photodynamic therapy agent and a cell labeling agent in the medical field.
Furthermore, phthalocyanine pigments are also applied in the fields of deodorization filters, fungicides for plants, antiallergen, and antivirus. For example, in the field of deodorization filters, a deodorization filter carrying a copper phthalocyanine and silver oxide (PTL 1) and a deodorant made of a water-soluble metal phthalocyanine (PTL 2) are disclosed. In the field of fungicides for plants, turfgrass fungicides containing a chlorinated copper phthalocyanine and an emulsifier are disclosed (PTLs 3 and 4). In the fields of antiallergen and antivirus, an allergen decomposer and an antiviral agent made of a water-soluble metal phthalocyanine (PTLs 5 and 6) are disclosed.
In recent years, there has been a strong demand to maintain the cleanliness of living spaces, and the installation of air purifiers in homes and public rooms has become commonplace. Air purifiers are now serving an antibacterial function, an antiviral function, an allergen substance-removing function, and a deodorizing function to provide additional values, beyond a mere air purification function of removing dirt and dust in the air.
Phthalocyanine pigments are also expected to be a material having the above properties. However, copper phthalocyanine is not so excellent in the above functions, so even more excellent materials have been sought for. Water-soluble metal phthalocyanines have the above functions but have limited applications and use fields because they are water soluble. In addition, since the water-soluble metal phthalocyanines are dyes, further durability is desired.
An object of the present invention is to provide a phthalocyanine pigment that is non-water soluble but has antibacterial or antiviral effect, and inks, printed matter, paints, coatings, plastics, fibers, films, cosmetics, and the like containing the pigment.
The inventors of the present invention have conducted elaborate studies to solve the above problem and found that a specific phthalocyanine pigment has antibacterial or antiviral effect and that products containing the pigment also have antibacterial effect. This finding has led to solution of the problem.
More specifically, the present invention includes the following.
[1]
A phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial effect, comprising one or more kinds selected from phthalocyanines of iron, cobalt, cadmium, nickel, aluminum, sodium, magnesium, silicon, manganese, and tin that optionally at least have a substituent.
[2]
The phthalocyanine pigment according to 1, wherein the phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect is represented by a general formula (1).
(In the formula, M represents a metal of Fe, Co, Cd, Ni, Al, Na2, Mg, Si, Mn, or Sn, or an oxy metal or a halogenated metal thereof. R1 to R16 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a halogen atom.)
[3]
Inks, printed matter, paints, coatings, plastics, fibers, films, and cosmetics containing the phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect according to 1 or 2.
The phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect in the present invention is a non-water soluble pigment but has antibacterial or antiviral effect and has significantly high performance in terms of heat resistance and light fastness, compared with a dye-based antibacterial colorant, because of being a pigment. Because of being a pigment, the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention has antibacterial or antiviral effect even in the applications such as inks, printed matter, paints, coatings, plastics, fibers, films, and cosmetics, and can be used in a wide range of industrial fields.
The following embodiments of the present invention are only some of embodiments of the present invention and are not limited only to the contents of the description, provided that they do not substantially deviate from the spirit of the invention.
In a phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect in the present invention, the central metal is iron, cobalt, cadmium, nickel, aluminum, sodium, magnesium, silicon, manganese, or tin. In addition, these metals and the phthalocyanine ring may be unsubstituted or may have a substituent such as halogen, carboxylic acid, hydroxyl group, or carbonyl group. In theory, the number of substituents (n) can be n=0 to 16, but in order to express the function as a pigment, it is preferable to have a substituent(s) to such a degree not soluble in water or a solvent.
The phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect in the present invention is produced by a known production method. Typically, it can be obtained by reacting a metal salt with phthalic anhydride or phthalonitrile in a high-boiling solvent. The phthalocyanine pigment represented by the general formula (1) can be produced, for example, by the following production methods.
In the Wyler method of synthesis using a metal salt and phthalic anhydride as starting materials, the reaction is carried out by mixing and heating phthalic anhydride, urea, a metal salt, a solvent, and a condensation agent. The solvent is then distilled away under reduced pressure, and washing is repeated with sulfuric acid, hot water, or the like to produce a crude pigment (crude).
In the phthalonitrile method using a metal salt and phthalonitrile as starting materials, the reaction is carried out by mixing and heating phthalonitrile, a metal salt, and a solvent. The solvent is then distilled away under reduced pressure, and washing is repeated with sulfuric acid, hot water, or the like to produce a crude pigment (crude). The phthalonitrile method also includes a solid-phase method using molten urea as a solvent.
Furthermore, as described in Japanese Examined Patent Application Publication No. H7-119369, phthalimide, urea, metal chloride, ammonium molybdate, in some cases, cyanuric acid and t-amylbenzene are mixed and heated, and then the reaction product is distilled away under reduced pressure. The resulting solid is washed with a sulfuric acid solution, hot water, or the like until the filtrate becomes neutral, and the resulting wet cake is dried well to produce a crude pigment (crude).
The phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect in the present invention can be produced by the above production methods as an example, but can also be produced by other methods such as an exchange reaction of the central metal of the phthalocyanine pigment.
As for the central metal of phthalocyanine pigments, various kinds of phthalocyanine pigments can be produced by changing metal salts, but the phthalocyanine pigment having antibacterial or antiviral effect in the present invention has been unknown.
The phthalocyanine crudes obtained by the above production methods often have large particle size and particle non-uniformity after production and have poor dispersibility in some applications, so a further process of pigmentation is required as needed to achieve a desired particle size or crystalline type.
Any known customary methods can be used for pigmentation. Specifically, examples of the methods include: mixing and grinding the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention with a water-soluble inorganic salt and a water-soluble organic solvent (solvent salt milling method); heating the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention in a solvent in which the phthalocyanine pigment is insoluble (solvent method); and pulverizing using a pigment grinding machine or a pigment dispersing machine.
In the solvent salt milling method, for example, the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention, a water-soluble inorganic salt such as sodium chloride or sodium sulfate, and a water-soluble organic solvent such as diethylene glycol or triethylene glycol are mixed and ground with heat, and washed with water.
When the solvent method is used, a liquid medium that does not dissolve the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention is selected and used. As the liquid medium, a liquid medium that contains a water-soluble organic solvent as an essential component is preferably used in order to perform crystal control of the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention more stably.
When the pulverizing method is used, for example, a pigment grinding machine or a pigment dispersing machine, such as ball mill, sand mill, attritor, horizontal continuous media disperser, kneader, continuous single-screw mixer, continuous two-screw mixer, three-roll mill, and open-roll continuous mixer, can be used. The pigment grinding machine and the pigment dispersing machine can also be used in the solvent salt milling method.
When pigmented, the phthalocyanine pigment in the present invention expresses crystalline properties rather than molecular properties. Specifically, because of the crystalline properties, the antibacterial or antiviral effect extends not only to an area in contact with the pigment but also to an area slightly distant from the pigment. When it comes to the antibacterial effect, in the case of dyes, the antibacterial activity disappears when the dye is covered with the resin of a coating film or the like, whereas in the case of pigments, the antibacterial or antiviral activity can be maintained even when the pigment is slightly covered with the resin of a coating film or the like.
In the case of dyes, a redox reaction occurs, that is, a molecule transitions from HOMO to LUMO, or a specific functional group of bacteria or the like comes into contact with a specific atom, whereby a decomposition reaction proceeds.
On the other hand, in the case of pigments, a band gap is produced by having a certain crystal shape, and electron exchange for progressing a reaction occurs through valence band and conduction band. When there are multiple pigments, electron transfer necessary for a reaction, such as hopping conduction, can take place between the pigments even in the presence of a resin. This enables electron injection into a specific functional group of bacteria or the like.
From the above perspective, it is assumed that, among the metal species of phthalocyanine pigments, a metal species in which redox of the metal ion easily occurs in an electrochemical reaction has higher antibacterial or antiviral activity than a metal species in which redox of the phthalocyanine ring easily occurs.
Examples of indicators of the antibacterial effect include bacteria growth tests using a culturing kit and antibacterial activity tests defined in the JIS standards.
The main purpose of using a culturing kit is to grasp a phenomenon in which common bacteria and fungi existing in the natural world, such as in food, air, and water, grow in the culture medium of the culturing kit, by observing the development of colonies. When a substance having antibacterial effect is brought into contact with the culture medium, a certain amount of bacteria and fungi are killed, or their growth is inhibited, thereby preventing or delaying the development of colonies. The bacteria growth test using a culturing kit enables an evaluation by periodic observation of the above phenomenon.
Examples of the common bacteria and fungi include, but are not limited to, E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, fungi, and viable bacteria containing the above bacteria and fungi.
A common kit can be used as the culturing kit. Examples thereof include a simple microbial counting instrument San-ai Biochecker (manufactured by San-Ai Oil Co., Ltd.), a culture medium for bacteria counting Compact Dry (manufactured by Nissui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), and the like.
The antibacterial activity tests defined in the JIS standards mainly target typical gram-negative bacteria such as E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Moraxella, and gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, and Streptococcus pyogenes. In summary, a sample is inoculated with a test bacteria solution, the sample in contact with a film or glass through the bacteria solution is irradiated with light or kept in a dark place for a certain period of time, and then the collected bacteria solution is diluted and incubated on an agar medium. After incubation, the antibacterial activity value is determined by comparing the counts of colonies generated. Alternatively, a sample is inoculated with a test bacteria solution, the sample in contact with a film or glass through the bacteria solution is irradiated with light or kept in a dark place for a certain period of time, and then the bacteria solution on the sample is washed and collected. Then, the antibacterial activity value is determined by comparing the viable bacteria counts. Specifically, examples include JIS R1702 Test method for antibacterial activity of photocatalytic materials and efficacy, JIS R1752 Test method for antibacterial activity of photocatalytic materials and efficacy under indoor lighting environment, JIS L1902 Determination of antibacterial activity and efficacy of textile products, JIS Z2801 Antibacterial products—Test for antibacterial activity and efficacy, or the bacteria solution absorption method, the transfer method, and the halo method defined in JIS L1902 Determination of antibacterial activity and efficacy of textile products.
Examples of indicators of the antiviral activity include antiviral activity tests defined in the JIS standards and ISO standards.
The antiviral tests defined in the JIS standards and ISO standards mainly target typical influenza virus having envelope, feline calicivirus having no envelope, or bacteriophages. In summary, a sample is inoculated with a virus or bacteriophage solution, the solution in contact with a film or glass is irradiated with light or kept in a dark place for a certain period of time, and then the collected solution is diluted and incubated on an agar medium. After incubation, the antiviral activity value is determined by comparing the plaque counts. Alternatively, a sample is inoculated with a virus solution, the sample in contact with a film or glass through the virus solution is irradiated with light or kept in a dark place for a certain period of time, and then the virus solution on the sample is washed and collected. Then, the antiviral activity value is determined by comparing the virus infectivity titers.
Specifically, examples include JIS R1706 Determination of antiviral activity of photocatalytic materials—Test method using bacteriophage Q-beta, JIS R1756 Determination of antiviral activity of photocatalytic materials under indoor lighting environment—Test method using bacteriophage Q-beta, ISO 21702 Measurement of antiviral activity on plastics and other non-porous surfaces, and JIS L1922 Determination of antiviral activity of textile products.

Evaluation of antibacterial activity against E. coli (NBRC 3972) was performed by the following method.
A 5×5 cm coating film sterilized by heating (80° C., 15 minutes) in a dry sterilizer was inoculated with 0.1 ml of a test bacteria solution. The bacteria solution kept in close contact with a film or glass was irradiated with light (white fluorescent lamp (FL20SSW/18, MITSUBISHI), 500 1× visible light, Sharp Cut Filter Type A (N113, cut off the wavelengths of 400 nm or lower) and left for eight hours. The collected bacteria solution was then diluted and incubated on an agar medium, and the antibacterial activity value was determined by comparing the counts of colonies formed. The calculation formula is written as RL: antibacterial activity value (in a bright place): [RL=Log(BL)−Log(CL)] (L: bright place, BL: the viable bacteria count in an untreated product after eight hours in a bright place, Cy: the viable bacteria count in a treated product after eight hours in a bright place). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, while the untreated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a solution containing a synthetic resin and a solvent.
As a rough standard of the antibacterial activity value, for example, the certification standard for photocatalyst products specified by Photocatalysis Industry Association of Japan is 2.0 or higher. An antibacterial activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the growth of bacteria by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no bacteria grow.
Evaluation of antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (NBRC 12732) was performed by the following method.
A 5×5 cm coating film sterilized by heating (80° C., 15 minutes) in a dry sterilizer was inoculated with 0.1 ml of a test bacteria solution. The bacteria solution kept in close contact with a film or glass was left in a dark place for eight hours. The collected bacteria solution was then diluted and incubated on an agar medium, and the antibacterial activity value was determined by comparing the counts of colonies formed. The calculation formula is written as RD: antibacterial activity value (in a dark place): [RD=Log(BD)−Log(CD)] (D: dark place, BD: the viable bacteria count in an untreated product after being left for eight hours in a dark place, CD: the viable bacteria count in a treated product after being left for eight hours in a dark place). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, while the untreated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a solution containing a synthetic resin and a solvent.
Here, for example, an antibacterial activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the growth of bacteria by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no bacteria grow.

Antibacterial testing against Staphylococcus aureus (NBRC 12732) was performed by the following method.
A 5×5 cm coating film cleaned by UV irradiation was inoculated with 0.4 ml of a test bacteria solution. The bacteria solution kept in close contact with a film or glass was left in a dark place for 24 hours. The collected bacteria solution was then diluted and incubated on an agar medium. After incubation, the antibacterial activity value was determined by comparing the counts of colonies formed. The calculation formula is written as R=(Ut−U0)−(At−U0)=Ut−At (R: antibacterial activity value, U0: the mean logarithmic value of the viable bacteria count immediately after inoculation in the untreated product, Ut: the mean logarithmic value of the viable bacteria count after 24 hours in the untreated product, At: the mean logarithmic value of the viable bacteria count after 24 hours in the treated product). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, and the untreated product is a stomacher film as specified in JIS Z 2801: 2021 Antibacterial products—Test for antibacterial activity and efficacy.
As a rough standard of the antibacterial activity value, for example, JIS Z 2801: 2021 Antibacterial products—Test for antibacterial activity and efficacy stipulates that the criterion for antibacterial effect is 2.0 or higher. An antibacterial activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the growth of bacteria by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no bacteria grow.
Antiviral testing against bacteriophage Q-beta (NBRC 20012, host E. coli (NBRC 106373)) was performed by the following method.
A 5×5 cm coating film was inoculated with a test phage solution. The phage solution kept in close contact with a film or glass was left for four hours in a dark place. The collected phage solution was then diluted and incubated on an agar medium. After incubation, the antiviral activity value was determined by comparing the counts of colonies formed. The calculation formula is written as VD: antiviral activity value (in a dark place): [VL=Log(BD)−Log(CD)] (D: dark place, BL: the infectivity titer in an untreated product after being left for four hours in a dark place, CD: the infectivity titer in a treated product after being left for four hours in a dark place). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, while the untreated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a solution containing a synthetic resin and a solvent.
Here, for example, an antiviral activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the phage growth by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no phage grows.

The calculation formula is written as VL: antiviral activity value (in a bright place): [VL=Log(BL)−Log(CL)] (L: bright place, BL: the infectivity titer in an untreated product after being left for four hours in a bright place, CL: the infectivity titer in a treated product after being left for four hours in a bright place). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, while the untreated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a solution containing a synthetic resin and a solvent.
As a rough standard of the antiviral activity value, for example, the certification standard for photocatalyst products specified by Photocatalysis Industry Association of Japan is 2.0 or higher. An antiviral activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the phage growth by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no phage grows.
Antiviral testing against bacteriophage 06 (NBRC 105899, non-JIS standards, host Pseudomonas syringae (NBRC 14084)) was performed by the following method.
A 5×5 cm coating film was inoculated with a test phage solution. The phage solution kept in close contact with a film or glass was left for four hours in a dark place. The collected phage solution was then diluted and incubated on an agar medium. After incubation, the antiviral activity value was determined by comparing the counts of colonies formed. The calculation formula is written as VD: antiviral activity value (in a dark place): [VL=Log(BD)−Log(CD)] (D: dark place, BL: the infectivity titer in an untreated product after being left for four hours in a dark place, CD: the infectivity titer in a treated product after being left for four hours in a dark place). The treated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a dispersion containing a pigment, while the untreated product is a coating film obtained by forming a film of a solution containing a synthetic resin and a solvent.
Here, for example, an antiviral activity value of 2.0 means that the treated product suppressed the phage growth by 99% after the test, compared with the untreated product. However, this does not necessarily mean that no phage grows.
