Description

  The present invention relates to a laminate excellent in impact absorption, stress relaxation and shape retention, and to its use.

  Conventionally, various materials have been used as shock absorbers, and various foams, thermoplastic elastomers, etc. are used, and human bodies such as clothing equipped with shock absorbers used for nursing care, protective equipment for sports, etc. It is used in a wide range of fields, such as protecting the container from impacts, or applying it to transportation tools such as pallets to protect the transported goods from impacts.

  On the other hand, in recent years, non-foamed impact-absorbing films have been developed to be installed in the oral cavity or extremities, especially with medical materials, and to improve shock absorption and stress relaxation properties in a space-saving manner by reducing the size of electrical and electronic materials. In addition, a material having a high loss tangent tan δ peak measured by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement and excellent in shock absorption and stress relaxation has been increasingly used for the foam.

  Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a foam composition and a laminate using a copolymer having a tan δ peak obtained by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement in a temperature range from −20 ° C. to 40 ° C. close to room temperature. ing. However, they have the feature that they can be made thinner than conventional shock absorbers, but they have a tan δ peak near room temperature, so they are not easily deformed, and the original molded bodies are particularly used in applications where constant force is applied. It is known that the shape cannot be maintained.

  On the other hand, Patent Documents 3 to 5 propose a resin composition containing 4-methyl-1-pentene / α-olefin copolymer as a shock absorbing material and a mouthpiece for sports. Is not described, and there are still points to be improved for use in shock absorbers, cushioning materials, and the like.
