(Prior Art) Various types of hygroscopic materials are known, in which various hygroscopic agents are packaged with packaging materials, such as desiccant agents for seaweed and confectionery. Silica gel is known as a representative of these moisture absorbents, and is widely used because it is particularly safe and inexpensive.

Furthermore, recently, taking advantage of the trend in health equipment, proposals have been made to package B-type gel in packaging material and make it into a sheet for use in kimonos and to alleviate the discomfort caused by moisture in the human body, especially in elderly people who have been bedridden for long periods of time. ing.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, although these moisture absorbers have sufficiently achieved their purpose for seaweed and confectionery,
The initial hygroscopicity is stronger than necessary for human use.
There are many problems in use, such as lack of sustainability of moisture absorption and small amount of moisture absorption.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present inventor has studied the causes of such drawbacks and found that most of the packaging materials constituting moisture absorbers are materials with high moisture permeability such as Japanese paper or nonwoven fabric, or polyethylene sheets. The main reason for this is that the moisture absorbent packed inside does not spill out, and the idea is that it is sufficient to allow air to circulate. After further detailed study, it was discovered that by selecting the moisture permeability of the package within a certain range, it was possible to maintain a suitable level of moisture absorption for a long period of time.

かくして本発明は透湿度が30〜60g/m2・24時
間を有する不織布と、透湿性が実質的にないシー

Thus, the present invention provides a hygroscopic body in which a hygroscopic agent is enclosed between a nonwoven fabric having a moisture permeability of 30 to 60 g/m 2 ·24 hours and a sheet having substantially no moisture permeability.

本発明において用いられる透湿度とは次の様に
定義される。
The moisture permeability used in the present invention is defined as follows.

24時間の乾燥剤の水分吸着量(g)/表側包装剤
の表面積(m2)=透湿度(g/m2・24時間) 本発明において用いられる不織布は透湿度が30

保持し得ないので何れも不適当である。
Moisture adsorption amount of the desiccant for 24 hours (g)/surface area of the front packaging agent (m 2 ) = moisture permeability (g/m 2・24 hours) The nonwoven fabric used in the present invention has a moisture permeability of 30
~60g/m 2 for 24 hours. If the moisture permeability is less than the above range, the hygroscopicity will be maintained for a long period of time, but the hygroscopicity per unit time will be insufficient; on the other hand, if it exceeds the above range, the hygroscopic agent will exhibit strong hygroscopicity in a short period of time. Both are unsuitable because they cannot maintain adequate hygroscopicity over a long period of time.

And within these ranges, the moisture permeability is 35 to 45g/
It is particularly preferable to use m 2 ·24 hours because the hygroscopicity within a unit time is moderate and the hygroscopicity can be maintained stably for a long period of time.

Examples of means for developing the moisture permeability of such non-woven fabrics include laminating a perforated polyethylene film onto a non-woven fabric with an adhesive, mechanically or physically perforating a polyethylene film when heat-sealing a non-woven fabric, and using polyethylene. A method such as perforating a laminated nonwoven fabric is employed. As the synthetic resin film to be laminated, any heat-sealable film such as polypropylene can be used.

Examples of the sheet with substantially no moisture permeability used here include, for example, a nonwoven fabric laminated with a synthetic resin film, a nonwoven fabric made of a mixture of cellulose staple fibers and synthetic resin fibers, and a synthetic resin film further laminated with the nonwoven fabric. The synthetic resin sheet itself is used.

In addition, non-woven fabrics, especially non-woven fabrics with a moisture permeability of 30 to 60 g/m 2 24 hours, can be treated with a suitable water repellent treatment to prevent water from directly passing through the non-woven fabric even in the event of incontinence, for example. It is preferable because it prevents moisture from reaching the moisture absorbent and allows only moisture to pass through.

As the moisture absorbent used in the present invention, silica gel, alumina gel, silica alumina gel, and various zeolites can be used, but especially when using silica gel, especially type A silica gel, the humidity of the body surface at the time of sleeping is 70~ 80% to 60-70%
It is particularly preferable because it improves the sleeping environment by reducing sweating and suppressing sweating.

In this case, the physical properties of silica gel are humidity 50 to 80.
It is preferable that the water absorption rate is at least 25%,
Type A silica gel having such physical properties is best.

Furthermore, activated carbon, zeolite, etc. are added to this moisture absorbent.
It is preferable to use a mixture of about 5%, as this not only improves the moisture absorbing power but also increases the deodorizing power.

The moisture absorbent thus obtained is usually used by placing it under sheets, etc., but if the moisture absorbent is too large particles, it will cause pain and discomfort to the body. For this reason, it is preferable to use spheres with an average particle diameter of about 0.3 to 2.0 mm, which are crushed into halves or quarters, since this will cause the least discomfort.

Further, the size of the entire moisture absorbent body can be arbitrarily selected, but when used for a bed, it is preferable to divide the moisture absorbent body into appropriate sizes because it prevents the moisture absorbent from being unevenly distributed and the feeling of contact with the back of a person. For this reason, make each side 3 to 10 cm,
It is appropriate to fill this bag-like body with 1 to 20 g of moisture absorbent.

Example 1 A 20 μm thick polyethylene film was laminated on one side of a nonwoven fabric (TCF408 manufactured by Futamura Chemical Co., Ltd.) made of short cellulose fibers, measuring 50 cm long, 70 cm wide, and 0.25 cm thick. On the other hand, each sheet was laminated with a sheet (S-405 manufactured by Sanwa Kagaku Co., Ltd.) made of a mixture of cellulose short fibers and synthetic resin fibers and laminated with a 40 μ thick polyethylene film on one side and having a moisture permeability of 1 g/m 2 /24 hours or less. With the surfaces facing each other, divide 450 g of spherical A-type silica gel into 2 to 4 pieces with 9 to 20 meshes and place them evenly on the facing surface of the laminate.
By heat-sealing the vertical and horizontal sides like the edges of a shoji screen to divide it into 64 rooms, and making 30 holes per room with a 0.05mm needle in the polyethylene film laminated on the non-woven fabric side, the moisture permeability is 45g/ m2 . It was set as 24 hours.
