Definitions
- dehydration is performed by passing a transportation felt 3 and a wet web 4 through a press section formed of a press roll 1 and a shoe 5 using a shoe press mechanism in which a loop-like shoe press belt 2 is provided between the press roll 1 and the shoe 5, as shown, for example, in FIG. 3 .
- the shoe press belt 2 includes a outer peripheral polyurethane layer 21 and a inner peripheral polyurethane layer 22 provided on both surfaces of a reinforcing fiber substrate 6, which is integrated into the polyurethane layers.
- a large number of concave grooves 24 are formed in the press roll side surface of the outer peripheral polyurethane layer 21. Water squeezed from a wet web 4 during pressing is held in the concave grooves 24, and the held water is further transferred to the outside of the press section by the rotation of the belt. Therefore, it is desired that the concave grooves 24 formed in the press roll side surface of the outer peripheral polyurethane layer 21 should have improved shape retention properties when pressurized by a press roll 1 and the shoe 5.
- a convex part 25 of the press roll side surface of the outer peripheral polyurethane layer 21 be improved in mechanical properties such as cracking resistance, resistance to fatigue from flexing, and wear resistance against vertical pressing force by the press roll 1, the friction of the shoe press belt in a shoe press region, and fatigue from flexing.
- Polyurethanes that exhibit excellent cracking resistance and wear resistance are widely used as resin materials to form the outer peripheral polyurethane layer 21 of the shoe press belt 2.
- JP-A-11-247086 discloses a shoe press belt including an outer peripheral polyurethane layer and an inner peripheral polyurethane layer provided on both surfaces of a reinforcing fiber substrate, which is integrated into the polyurethane layers.
- the polyurethane of the outer peripheral layer and inner peripheral layer is obtained by heat-curing a urethane prepolymer having a terminal isocyanate group (TAKENATE L2395 manufactured by Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited), obtained by reacting toluene-diisocyanate (TDI) with polytetramethylene glycol (PTMG), and 3,3'-dichloro-4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane (which is a compound commercially available as MBOCA and MOCA and also known as 4,4'-methylene bis-orthochloroaniline or 4,4'-methylene bis-(2-chloroaniline)) as a curing agent (chain extender).
- TAKENATE L2395 manufactured by Takeda
- JP-B-3698984 discloses a shoe press belt including an outer peripheral polyurethane layer and an inner peripheral polyurethane layer provided on both surfaces of a reinforcing fiber substrate, which is integrated into the polyurethane layers.
- the polyurethane of the outer peripheral layer is obtained by heat-curing a urethane prepolymer having a terminal isocyanate group (HIPREN L manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.), obtained by reacting toluene-diisocyanate (TDI) with polytetramethylene glycol (PTMG), and dimethylthiotoluenediamine (ETHACURE 300).

- ETHACURE 300 New Curing Agent as Substitute for MOCA
- ETHACURE 300 has excellent low-temperature curability equivalent to that of MOCA and lower toxicity than MOCA, and thus is used as a substitute for MOCA; and (iii) the journal " POLYMER,” vol. 36, 1995, pp.
- JP-A-10-212333 describes both 4,4'-methylenebis-(2-chloroaniline) and dimethylthiotoluenediamine as curing agents for a polyurethane constituting a belt (see claim 17, paragraphs [0011], [0022]).
- EP 2 284 314 A1 discloses a papermaking shoe press belt formed of a reinforcing fiber base material and a polyurethane layer integrated with each other, said reinforcing fiber base material being embedded in the polyurethane layer, wherein the papermaking shoe press belt comprises, as the polyurethane layer, a polyurethane layer obtainable by curing a composition of the following urethane prepolymer (A) and the following curing agent (B) having active hydrogen group (H): an urethane prepolymer (A) obtainable by reacting an isocyanate compound, which comprises 55 to 100 mol % of a p-phenylene-diisocyanate compound, with a long-chain polyol and having terminal isocyanate group(s), a curing agent (B) containing 65 to 100 mol% of one or more organic polyamine compound having active hydrogen groups (H) and selected from 4,4'-methylene bis(2,6-diethyl-3-chloroaniline), 4,4
