<Conventional Technology> Conventionally, jars have been widely used to keep food warm when carried around, but they cannot be made disposable, and insulated containers such as styrofoam, which can do this, cannot be expected to keep food warm for long periods of time.

一方、身体の保温には上記の食品とは異なり。On the other hand, unlike the above foods, it helps keep your body warm.

Heat sources have been used since ancient times, such as hot water bottles and platinum body warmers. The former uses water with high specific heat as a sensible heat storage material, but has the disadvantage of being bulky. The latter uses combustion heat and can produce a large amount of calories with a small amount, but it is also highly dangerous.

In order to maintain temperatures over 60°C for long periods of time, it is difficult to find ways to introduce oxygen or prevent water evaporation, and there are also methods that utilize the heat of hydration generated when water is added to calcium oxide. However, since they generate heat for a short period of time, they are not sustainable.Furthermore, both of them generate water vapor, so they are suitable for keeping foods that are steamed warm, such as rice, shumai, meatballs, etc.

In addition, the polyhydric alcohols used in the present invention are mixed so that they can be heated by microwaves generated from a microwave oven.Usually, water molecules are selected for those heated by microwaves, but in the present invention, water molecules are selected. are excluded. The reason for this is that when water molecules are mixed with the heat storage material, water vapor is generated while the heat storage heat insulator is being heated and melted using microwaves, which may cause the heat storage material storage container or bag to expand and be destroyed. It is. In order to avoid such dangers, a compound that can be heated with microwaves must be selected whose boiling point is as high as possible than the melting point of the heat storage material, and polyhydric alcohols were selected as meeting this condition.
