Abstract
The present invention provides a means capable of suppressing the formation of fine particles in a method for producing a silica sol. The present invention relates to a method for producing a silica sol, including synthesizing a silica sol by, in a reaction liquid containing an alkoxysilane or a condensate thereof, water, and an alkali catalyst, allowing the alkoxysilane or condensate thereof to react with the water in the presence of the alkali catalyst, wherein the alkali catalyst is not additionally supplied after the start of the synthesis until the finish time of the synthesis, and during 90% or more of the time between when 5 minutes have elapsed from the time point when the electrical conductivity of the reaction liquid reaches a local maximum for the first time and the finish time of the synthesis, the proportion of the value of the electrical conductivity of the reaction liquid is more than 90% relative to the value of the electrical conductivity at the time when 5 minutes have elapsed from the time point when the local maximum is reached.
