PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To establish a novel artificial soil particle having various possibilities and technique for producing the same, focusing on relation between structure and properties of an artificial soil particle that hardly has not been examined much.SOLUTION: Provided is an artificial soil particle 10 in which a plurality of fillers 1 having pores 2 are bound by a binder 5 and which has self-organized structure formed by competition of the fillers 1 and the binder 5. The self-organized structure includes such as three-dimensional network structure in which a plurality of the fillers 1 are three-dimensionally bound and lamella structure in which a plurality of the fillers 1 are aligned to a given direction.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】これまではあまり検討されていなかった人工土壌粒子の構造と特性との関係に着目し、様々な可能性を有する新規な人工土壌粒子、及びその製造技術を確立する。【解決手段】細孔2を有する複数のフィラー1が結合材5で結合された人工土壌粒子10であって、フィラー1と結合材5との競合によって形成される自己組織化構造を有する。自己組織化構造には、複数のフィラー1が三次元的に結合した三次元ネットワーク構造や、複数のフィラー1が所定の方向に配列したラメラ構造がある。【選択図】図2
