HEATING ELEMENT

摘要

To provide a heat generating body in which a space can be surely secured in the surroundings of a heat generating composition and heat insulation of the heat generating composition, adjustment of the quantity of air to be taken in and prevention of dispersion of water can be achieved. A heat generating body having an exothermic part having a heat generating composition molded body which is a molded body of a heat generating composition capable of causing heat generation upon contact with air in a convex of an accommodating bag having plural irregularities by laminating the heat generating composition molded body on a substrate, covering a covering material thereon and then heat sealing the periphery of the heat generating composition molded body, characterized in that the heat generating composition contains, as essential components, an exothermic substance, a carbon component, a reaction accelerator and water; that the heat generating body is composed of a sectional exothermic part and a sectioned part, the sectional exothermic part accommodates the heat generating composition molded body therein, the sectioned part is a seal part, and the sectional exothermic part is disposed via the sectioned part; that at least a part of the sectional exothermic part has an air-permeable surface; that the air-permeable surface which comes into contact with the heat generating composition molded body is constituted of a non-water absorptive raw material; that the sectional exothermic part and the sectioned part have a difference of altitude, and the part having a difference of altitude is covered by an air permeability adjusting material via a bonding layer and forms a partitioned spacial part; and that the spacial part is provided with a primary air intake.
