An object of the present invention is to eliminate such drawbacks and to provide a cold insulating material that can be repeatedly frozen and thawed and used any number of times.

〔課題を解決するための手段〕[Means to solve the problem]

上記目的を達成するために、本発明保冷材は、
水に寒天とポリアクリル系合成ポリマーを混合し

In order to achieve the above object, the cold insulating material of the present invention:
It is made by mixing agar and polyacrylic synthetic polymer with water.

If agar is used alone in water, this agar has no water retention capacity, so no matter what the mixing ratio, water separation will occur during thawing, and it will be 2.5
%, the product loses its transparency (some types of carrageenan lose transparency even by 1%), but polyacrylic synthetic polymers, on the other hand, do not impair the transparency of the product even when used alone. It has sufficient water retention capacity and does not cause water separation.

In this case, if the mixing ratio of agar is 1.5% or less, the gel strength will be weakened and the thawing time will inevitably be shortened. Furthermore, if the mixing ratio of sodium polyacrylate is 0.3% or less, the water retention capacity will be weakened and a water separation phenomenon will occur.

When the agar mixture ratio exceeds 1.8%, the product becomes opaque not only when frozen but also after thawing. Furthermore, if the mixing ratio of sodium polyacrylate exceeds 0.5%, large air bubbles will occur in the gel, which will turn into fine crystals when the product is frozen.

While stirring water, agar and sodium polyacrylate powder are mixed into it at a ratio of 99.0%, 0.8%, and 0.2%, and stirred well to completely dissolve and sol.
After that, it is heated to 80℃ or higher, then cooled and turned into jelly. The characteristics were as shown in the drawings when compared with the following comparative example.

No.1 No.2 No.3 水 99.0% 99.0% 100% 寒 天 0.8% 1.0% − ポリアクリル酸ソーダ 0.2% − − No.1〜No.3を40c.c.のガラス容器に入れ、−20℃

Cool for about 5 hours, take out after freezing, and No. 1~
We put No. 3 in containers with water temperature of 16℃ and 100 c.c., and examined the change in water temperature and thawing situation. We found that, especially in No. 2, which only had agar, the water separated as soon as it thawed, and the whole At the time of thawing, about 10% syneresis occurred, but no syneresis was observed in the jelly containing No. 1 sodium polyacrylate even after thawing.

As is clear from the above, since the cold insulation material of the present invention is mixed with agar, it is given a freezing point depressing property and becomes lower than ice, and also suppresses thermal conductivity and improves the cold insulation effect. At the same time, the mixture of polyacrylic synthetic polymers provides water-retaining power, and even if pressure is applied, the water that has been absorbed will not be expelled. Therefore, there is no water separation even after thawing, and on the contrary, it can absorb drips and condensation from objects to be refrigerated, such as food, and it has the great advantage of being able to be used over and over again. .
