The present invention relates to a planar heating element that generates heat by applying electricity to a semiconductive heating composition made of plastic, such as a thermoplastic elastomer, mixed with conductive carbon. Heat-generating compositions made by kneading conductive carbon into plastic are already known. For example, the composition is formed into a band shape, and a pair of current-carrying electrode wires are embedded in the composition in parallel, and at the same time the outer periphery of the composition is Conventionally, planar heating elements have been proposed that are coated with insulating plastic as an insulator. However, this kind of conventional structure has poor long-term stability, and as the heating element continues to be used, the amount of heat generated changes and gradually becomes unable to obtain the initial amount of heat. There was a serious flaw. Therefore, as a result of various studies and studies by the present inventors, it was found that by providing a film layer having a predetermined heat transfer coefficient between the heat generating composition and the insulator, a heat generating body with stable heat generation over a long period of time was created. I found that it is possible to obtain The present invention was developed through this process. The purpose of this is to create a space between the heat generating composition and the insulator in this type of heating element, which is made of foamed plastic, plastic nonwoven fabric, or kraft paper, or a combination thereof, and has a predetermined heat transfer coefficient. By providing the containing film layer, it is possible to provide a product with a stable calorific value over a long period of time. A feature of the present invention is that the film layer is made of a film having a heat transfer coefficient of 5 to 1000 Kca/m 2 ·hr·°C. The reason why a stable calorific value can be obtained over a long period of time by providing such a film layer is considered to be as follows. In other words, due to the appropriate heat transfer coefficient of the film constituting the film layer, the transfer of heat from the heat generating composition is appropriately adjusted, so that the heat generating composition can generate heat smoothly, and the composition This is because deterioration of the material is prevented. In addition, during the production of heating elements, due to the moderate heat transfer coefficient of the above-mentioned film, heat applied from the outside (such as heat applied when covering insulators, sheaths, etc.) is not transferred to the heating composition. This is because since there is no influence, variations in the amount of heat generated by the product are reduced, and at the same time, the subsequent operating characteristics are stabilized. In other words, when manufacturing a heating element, if the insulator is extruded and coated at a low temperature, the distortion from extrusion remains, so when it is heated during energized use, the distortion is released and deformation occurs, resulting in a decrease in the heat output of the heating element. changes significantly. Also, when trying to extrude and coat an insulator at high temperatures to avoid distortion during extrusion,
The exothermic composition is exposed to high temperatures and decomposes, becoming brittle and foaming. Therefore, by using a film with the above heat transfer coefficient, heat applied from the outside during manufacturing (such as heat applied when covering an insulator sheath, etc.) will not have much effect on the heat generating composition.
Moreover, extrusion coating can be performed at high temperatures such that no extrusion strain remains in the insulator, and products with excellent long-term stability can be manufactured. Then, the range of the heat transfer coefficient is 5 to 1000Kca.
/m 2・hr・℃ is 5Kca/m 2・hr・℃
If it is below ℃, heat transfer from the exothermic composition to the outside will be poor, and the temperature of the composition will rise excessively, resulting in progressive deterioration of the composition and loss of long-term stability. . On the other hand, 1000Kca/
If it exceeds m2・hr・℃, the influence of external heat applied to the exothermic composition during manufacturing becomes too large, resulting in large variations in the calorific value of the product and at the same time deteriorating its subsequent operating characteristics. It is. Examples of the film used for this film layer include foamed urethane film, polyester nonwoven fabric, nylon nonwoven fabric, and kraft paper. Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings. In the figure, 1 is a heat generating composition, and 2, 2 are a pair of current-carrying electrode wires, which are embedded in parallel to the length direction of the heat generating composition 1. Reference numeral 3 denotes a void-containing film, which is a feature of the present invention, and is provided around the outer periphery of the heat-generating composition 1. This film layer 3 is coated with an insulator 4, and a sheath 5 and the like are further coated on top of this. still,
This sheath 5 and the like can also be omitted. In this example, the heat-generating composition 1 uses Surlyn resin (trade name, manufactured by DuPont) as a thermoplastic elastomer, and 100 parts of this resin is kneaded with 50 parts of conductive carbon to make it semiconductive. It has a heat generating property. The composition 1 is formed into a band shape so that the heat generating surface is planar. The film of the film layer 3 provided on the outer periphery of this composition is a foamed urethane film (specific gravity 0.14),
Its thickness is 0.1mm. And in the case of this example,
It is available as a 1/2 wrap horizontal wrap. The film may have one or more layers, or may have multiple layers, and in addition to the above-mentioned horizontal wrapping, it may also be wrapped vertically, or a combination of both, or laminated together. Anyway, overall, the heat transfer coefficient of the entire film layer is 5~1000Kca/
It is sufficient if it is within the range of m2・hr・℃. As the insulator coated on the film layer 3, polyethylene with an MI (melt index) of 1 and a specific gravity of 0.92 is used, and as the sheath 5, for example,
Polyethylene (MI = 0.3, SG: 0.92), flexible polyvinyl chloride, and ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer are used. Incidentally, when the planar heating element of the present invention constructed in this way was compared with the same type of planar heating element (conventional product) without a film layer, the results were as shown in the following table.
In this case, a 1 mm 2 annealed copper wire was used as the conductor.

熱体を提供することができる。[Table] From this table, it can be seen that in the case of the planar heating element of the present invention with a film layer, there is almost no change in the calorific value, whereas in the case of the same type of heating element without a film layer,
It can be seen that the calorific value decreases significantly even after use for about a year. As explained above, according to the present invention, in a planar heating element that generates heat by supplying electricity to a heating composition made of plastic mixed with conductive carbon, there is a gap between the heating composition and the insulator. Since the film layer has a heat transfer coefficient of 5 to 1000 Kca/ m2・hr・℃, the appropriate heat transfer coefficient of the film layer provides excellent planar heat generation with stable heat generation over a long period of time.
