JP-A-9-254535

However, the above-described inkjet recording paper of Patent Document 1 only uses a nonwoven fabric or a resin film as a support, and the difference in design and aesthetics from other inkjet prints depends on the design and coloring of the inkjet image itself. I could only express it.

Therefore, the present invention provides an ink-jet decorative material that can be reproduced with an artistic value that is three-dimensional and fused with a metallic luster, which is a design and beauty that cannot be expressed with conventional ink-jet images. For the purpose.

In the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention, a fibrous sheet 13 having a basis weight of 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m ² or less is bonded to the surface of the metal layer 12 formed on the base material 11. The ink-receiving layer 15 is formed on the surface of the fibrous sheet 13, and at least a part of the fibers 16 constituting the fibrous sheet 13 has a single fiber fineness of 0.1. An inscribed circle 24 having a diameter D of 5 mm or less is in contact with the peripheral fiber 26 in a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in each length and width of the fiber sheet 13, which is a fiber of 5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less. A first characteristic is that a gap 17 is formed, and a translucent portion 25 that can visually recognize the surface of the metal layer 12 is provided at a position corresponding to the gap 17.

The second feature of the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to the first feature, the fibers 16 constituting the fibrous sheet 13 have a single fiber fineness of 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less. In addition to the fibers other than the fibers.

A third feature of the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to the first or second feature, the fibrous sheet 13 has a translucent portion distributed within a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in length and width. 25 has a bright distribution portion 18 having a large distribution density and a light leakage portion 19 having a low distribution density of the light transmission portion 25 distributed in a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in length and width.

The fourth feature of the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to any of the first to third features, the basis weight of the bonding adhesive 14 is 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m in a dry state. ² or less lies in the basis weight of the ink-receiving layer 15 is 3 g / m ² or more 55 g / m ² or less in the dry state.

The fifth feature of the ink-jet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to any of the first to fourth features, an ink-jet image 21 made of water-based ink from an ink-jet printer is printed on the surface of the ink receiving layer 15. Even after the ink-jet image 21 is printed, the light-transmitting portion 25 that can visually recognize the surface of the metal layer 12 is provided at a position corresponding to the gap 17 of the fibrous sheet 13.

The sixth feature of the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to any of the first to fifth features, the base material 11 is a base paper, and the metal layer 12 is a metal foil. The base paper and the metal foil are laminated with a backing adhesive 23 interposed therebetween.

A seventh feature of the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is that, in addition to any one of the first to sixth features, the fibers 16 constituting the fibrous sheet 13 include fibers having a fiber length of 2 mm or more. Is 80% by mass or more.

Due to these characteristics, the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is affixed with a fibrous sheet 13 having a basis weight of 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m ² or less on the surface of the metal layer 12 formed on the substrate 11. At least a part of the fibers 16 constituting the fiber sheet 13 is formed with a single fiber fineness of 0.5 dtex or more by laminating and forming via the adhesive 14 and forming the ink receiving layer 15 on the surface of the fiber sheet 13. There is a gap 17 between fibers which is a fiber of 30.0 dtex or less and in which an inscribed circle 24 having a diameter D of 5 mm or less comes into contact with the peripheral fiber 26 in a unit rectangular area of 50 mm in each length and width of the fiber sheet 13. By forming the translucent portion 25 that is formed and can visually recognize the surface of the metal layer 12 at a position corresponding to the gap 17, the gap 17 (translucent size) of an appropriate size is provided on the decorative surface of the inkjet decoration material 22. The light portion 25) can be arranged evenly, and at the same time, the metallic luster of the metal layer 12 can be visually recognized from the placed light transmitting portion 25, and coupled with the ink-jet image 21 to be printed (coated), a completely new aesthetic that has not existed before. The provided decorative surface can be formed.
The fibrous sheet 13 in the present invention refers to a fabric such as a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, and a knitted fabric, a pulp fiber sheet, and the like.

Further, the fibers 16 constituting the fibrous sheet 13 include fibers other than fibers having a single fiber fineness of 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less, so that the translucent portion is included in the decorative surface of the inkjet decoration material 22. As the accent of the ink jet image 21 printed on the fiber dense portion 20, the ratio of the dense portion where the fibers 16 other than 25 overlap (hereinafter referred to as the fiber dense portion 20) is increased. The metallic luster of this will be reflected in reverse.

Furthermore, the distribution density of the translucent portion 25 distributed within a unit rectangular area of 50 mm in length and width is large, the diameter D of the inscribed circle 24 inscribed in the gap 17 interposed by the translucent portion 25 is relatively large, and the fiber dense portion The diameter D of the inscribed circle 24 inscribed in the gap 17 in which the light-transmitting portion 25 is small and the light-transmitting portion 25 distributed within a unit rectangular area of 50 mm in length and width are small and the gap 17 interposed by the light-transmitting portion 25 is compared. By providing the fiber sheet 13 with the light leakage part 19 having a small and dense fiber density portion 20, the decorative surface of the inkjet decoration material 22 can be made uneven, and at the same time, the glitter part 18 having a small amount of the fiber dense part 20 is obtained. Since the surrounding fiber dense part 20 is recessed more than the light leakage part 19, a new decorative surface is formed by fusing this recess (surface irregularity), metallic luster, and the inkjet image 21 to be printed. To it can be.

By setting the basis weight of the bonding adhesive 14 to 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m ² or less in a dry state, the fibrous sheet 13 is firmly fixed on the metal layer 12 and at the same time, the applied bonding adhesive 14 The fiber 16 of the fibrous sheet 13 does not sink inside, and the light transmission part 25 is reliably formed also in the light leakage part 19 with many fiber dense parts 20.
Furthermore, by setting the basis weight of the ink receiving layer 15 to 3 g / m ² or more and 55 g / m ² or less in a dry state, the ink from the ink jet printer is securely held on the surface of the ink receiving layer 15 and ink bleeding is eliminated. At the same time, the ink receiving layer 15 is not too thick and the ink does not penetrate deeply, and the ink does not become difficult to see on the surface of the ink receiving layer 15.

Then, the ink jet image 21 is printed on the surface of the ink receiving layer 15 with an aqueous ink using an ink jet printer, and even after the ink jet image 21 is printed, the light transmitting portion 25 is provided. It is possible to print with thermal type and piezo type, etc., and by harmonizing the printed inkjet image 21 and metallic luster, it is possible to have a difference other than the design and coloring as in the past. Become.

Furthermore, by forming the base material 11 as a base paper and forming the metal layer 12 with a metal foil lined with the base paper, the inkjet decoration material 22 itself is made flexible so that it can be applied to curved surfaces. It becomes easy to use for various uses such as wall decorations, posters, and labels.

Further, the fiber 16 constituting the fiber sheet 13 has a fiber length of 2 mm or more in a ratio of 80% by mass or more, whereby the fiber density tends to vary in the decorative surface of the fiber sheet 13. The translucent part 25 is securely formed.

A fibrous sheet having a basis weight of 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m ² or less is laminated on the surface of the metal layer formed on the substrate via an adhesive, and an ink receiving layer is laminated on the surface of the fibrous sheet. And at least a part of the fibers constituting the fibrous sheet is composed of fibers having a single fiber fineness of 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less, and a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in each length and width of the fibrous sheet.

In order to achieve the above-described object, the ink jet decorative material 22 according to the present invention includes a base material 11, a metal layer 12, a fiber sheet 13, a bonding adhesive 14 (adhesive layer), and an ink receiving layer 15 that are sequentially laminated. This will be described in the order of stacking.
As the base material 11 in the present invention, normal natural pulp paper such as fine paper, glassine paper, cast paper, and coated paper is used as the base paper. These may be white or colored.

The base material 11 is not limited to the base paper, but a so-called synthetic paper obtained by converting synthetic fiber or synthetic resin film into a pseudo-paper, a fiber structure (woven fabric, knitted fabric, non-woven fabric), an inorganic sheet such as a glass fiber sheet, or a synthetic sheet. Resin film, glass, metal surface, board or plywood, laminated board, etc. can be transported by a printer and can be recorded, and there is no particular problem as long as it has flexibility and bendability. Can be used. There is no problem even if these are colored.
The metal layer 12 in the present invention may be a metal foil lined with a base material 11 such as a base paper, and the metal used for the metal foil is aluminum, gold, silver, copper, chromium, indium, tin or the like. There is no particular limitation.

The thickness of the metal foil (metal layer 12) is not particularly limited, but about 5 to 20 μm is preferable because it does not cause problems in printer transportability. Further, the upper surface of the metal foil on the side that can be visually recognized is more preferably a surface having a metallic luster because the difference between the fibrous sheet 13, the ink receiving layer 14, and the portion covered with the inkjet image becomes clear. .
As the metal foil, aluminum foil is particularly preferable from the viewpoint of ease of handling and surface stability. In addition to silver, various colors can be obtained by providing colored layers such as gold, copper, and platinum. Variations may be added.

Further, the metal layer 12 of the present invention may be a metal vapor deposition layer. The vapor deposition method in the case of providing this metal vapor deposition layer is, for example, a high-purity aluminum after the vacuum tank is set to a high vacuum of about 10 ⁻⁴ Torr or more. In this method, when metal such as nickel, zinc, copper, silver, gold, etc. is heated and melted in a crucible and evaporated, the metal fine particles adhere to and aggregate on the synthetic resin layer.
As the metal, aluminum is preferably used in view of its stability and appearance, and the thickness of the deposited metal film is generally 50 to 5000 angstroms.
When the metal deposition is directly performed on the base material 11, the backing adhesive 23 is not necessary, but a surface treatment with an anchoring agent is performed on the base material 11 in order to increase the adhesive strength of the metal deposition layer.
The metal vapor deposition layer (metal layer 12) may be formed by laminating in advance on a release sheet and transferred to the substrate 11 from the release sheet.

The fibrous sheet 13 in the present invention is not limited to a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric (woven fabric), a knitted fabric (knitted fabric) or the like, but also refers to a fiber sheet, a fiber web, or the like composed of pulp, rayon, or the like.
Here, the case where a nonwoven fabric is used as the fibrous sheet 13 will be described. The nonwoven fabric is roughly classified into a wet nonwoven fabric, a dry nonwoven fabric by a stitch bond method, a spun bond method, a melt blown method, a thermal bond method, etc., or a wet nonwoven fabric or There are needle punch nonwoven fabrics and spunlace nonwoven fabrics using dry nonwoven fabrics. A laminated fabric obtained by laminating stretched polyolefin split fibers or polyester continuous fibers in a mesh shape may be used.

Moreover, when using a woven fabric as the fibrous sheet 13, a plain organ and thin organdy, a thin taffeta having a horizontal surface on a plain woven fabric, etc. are preferable, and the fiber 16 is not limited to silk, and is described below. Synthetic fibers such as polyester may be used. In addition, as the fibrous sheet 13, a thin and sufficiently translucent chiffon or a tulle made of lace may be used.
Furthermore, the fiber sheet 13 composed of pulp may be commercially available as western paper, and the fiber sheet 13 composed of cocoons and tridents is commercially available as Japanese paper. May be.

The fiber length of the fibers 16 constituting the fiber sheet 13 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to configure the fiber sheet 13 so that the ratio of fibers having a fiber length of 2 mm or more is 80% by mass or more. .
This is because, when the fiber sheet 13 is composed of only short fibers having a fiber length of 2 mm or less, the density of the fibers is uniform, there is no variation, and the texture is improved. It becomes difficult to provide a aesthetic feeling that is not sufficient, and the translucent portion 25 and the conventional one.

By making the basis weight of the fibrous sheet 13 an appropriate amount such as 3 g / m ² or more and 50 g / m ² or less, there are interspersed gaps 17 that can be visually recognized on the fibrous sheet 13 adhered on the metal layer 12. Become.
This is because when the basis weight exceeds 50 g / m ² , the gap 17 is hardly formed in the fibrous sheet 13 and the metallic luster cannot be visually recognized after the inkjet image 21 is printed.

Further, if the basis weight is less than 3 g / m ^{2 and} it is composed of so-called ultrafine fibers, most of the glossy surface of the metal layer 12 is exposed, and the ink receiving layer 14 portion is also reduced, and the printing quality. In addition, an extra process such as alkali splitting has to be added to form ultrafine fibers, resulting in reduced work efficiency and inferior economy.
The basis weight of the fibrous sheet 13 is preferably 10 g / m ² or more and 45 g / m ² or less, more preferably 10 g / m ² or more and 40 g / m ² or less.

Incidentally, the basis weight of general commercially available toilet paper made of pulp fibers having a fiber length of 2 to 5 mm is generally 25 g / m ² , and innumerable gaps 17 that can be seen through the front and back are evenly distributed. Some synthetic papers that use the thermal bond method of endless synthetic fibers (filaments) are closely attached to the synthetic fibers (filaments) even when the basis weight is around 25 g / m ^2. In some cases, the gap between the front and back surfaces is not visible between the synthetic fibers (filaments).
In the present invention, the fiber sheet 13 is “a gap 17 in which an inscribed circle 24 having a diameter D of 5 mm or less is in contact with the peripheral fiber 26 within a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in each length and width. In other words, it is excluded from the fiber sheet according to the present invention that the gap 17 that allows the front and back to be seen between the fibers is not visible even if the basis weight is around 25 g / m ^2. Means that

About the fiber 16 which comprises the fibrous sheet 13, fundamentally, the single fiber fineness of the fiber 16 shall be 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less.
For example, when the single fiber fineness of the fiber 16 is less than 0.5 dtex, the fiber 16 sinks into the adhesive layer 14 formed to be laminated on the fibrous sheet 13 or is embedded in the ink receiving layer 15, so that the fiber 16 of the fibrous sheet 13 is formed. As such, the gap 17 is buried, and the translucent portion 25 and the surface unevenness are eliminated.

On the other hand, if the single fiber fineness is thicker than 30.0 dtex, even if the basis weight value of the fibrous sheet 13 is the same, the gap 17 between the fibers 16 becomes too large, for example, a unit rectangular area of 50 mm in length and width The inscribed circle 24 that should be accommodated in the gap 17 in contact with the peripheral fibers 26 at the periphery of the gap 17 distributed in (2500 mm ² ) becomes large, and it becomes difficult for the inkjet decoration material 22 to have an appropriate metallic luster.
In other words, an inscribed circle having a diameter D of 5 mm or less in a unit rectangular area (2500 mm ² ) of 50 mm in length and width in the fiber sheet 13 while the single fiber fineness of the fiber 16 is set to 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less. If the fibrous sheet 13 has a gap 17 that fits inwardly to the peripheral fibers 26, the metallic luster of the metal layer 12 and the unevenness of the surface of the fibrous sheet 13 coupled with the inkjet image 21 to be printed. It is possible to form a harmonized decorative surface.

The single fiber fineness of the fibers 16 of the fibrous sheet 13 is basically in the range of 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less, but Yunlong uses fibers that twist in various directions as a decoration utilizing the flow of water. In order to form a pattern-like decorative surface, fibers having a single fiber fineness exceeding 30.0 dtex or fibers having a fineness of less than 0.5 dtex may be put in a very small part.
That is, most of the fibers 16 constituting the fibrous sheet 13 are fibers having a single fiber fineness of 0.5 dtex or more and 30.0 dtex or less, but other than that (that is, the single fiber fineness is 0.5 dtex or more and 30 or more. Other than fibers of 0.0 dtex or less), functional fibers such as conductive fibers, antibacterial fibers, and deodorant fibers, and decorative fibers having different appearance such as color, surface gloss, cross-sectional shape, and crimping degree. It may be included.

As the types of fibers constituting the fibrous sheet 13, organic fibers such as polyester fibers, polyolefin fibers, polyacrylonitrile fibers, polyvinyl alcohol fibers, nylon fibers, urethane fibers, viscose rayon, Examples include regenerated fibers such as lyocell and semi-synthetic fibers, and natural plant fibers such as cotton, kabok cotton, kenaf, pulp, straw and trigeminal.
For example, as the polyester fiber, fibers made of homopolymers and copolymers such as polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, and modified polymers of these polymers can be used.

The bonding adhesive 14 (adhesive layer) in the present invention includes general acrylic resins, natural and synthetic rubbers, styrene / butadiene copolymers, polyvinyl acetate, vinyl acetate / ethylene copolymers, starch, silicone compounds, Resins such as glue, casein, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane and polyurethane can be used alone or in the form of a solution, an aqueous solution or an emulsion. Preferably, a synthetic resin is used.
Also, the basis weight of the bonding adhesive 14 is a solid (dry), if 3 g / m ² or more 50 g / m ² or less of the range, firmly the fibrous sheet 13 on the surface of the metal layer 12 bonded At the same time, the fibers 16 of the nonwoven fabric 13 are not buried in the bonding adhesive layer (14).
Thus, when apply | coating the bonding adhesive 14 by predetermined | prescribed basic weight, application means, such as a roll coater, a knife coater, and a gravure coater, are used.

The basis weight of the bonding adhesive 14 is more preferably 15 g / m ² or more and 45 g / m ² or less in a dry state, and further preferably 15 g / m ² or more and 40 g / m ² or less in a dry state. Even if the basis weight is relatively low, by foaming (flossing) the resin, the thickness of the coating film of the bonding adhesive 14 for each basis weight can be made uniform and sufficient adhesive force can be obtained. After flipping, the thickness unevenness of the bonding adhesive 14 is reduced.
The component of the ink receiving layer 15 of the present invention can contain a cationic dye fixing agent. Examples of the cationic dye fixing agent include secondary amines, tertiary amines, and quaternary ammonium salts.

Furthermore, examples of the adhesive used in the ink receiving layer 15 include water-soluble pastes such as starch, polyvinyl alcohol, carboxymethyl cellulose, and hydroxyethyl cellulose, vinyl acetate, styrene-butadiene copolymers, acrylic esters, and methacrylic esters. Or a synthetic resin adhesive such as a vinyl polymer latex such as an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer.
The ink receiving layer 15 may contain a white pigment such as a surfactant, porous synthetic amorphous silica, porous magnesium carbonate, or porous alumina.

The basis weight of the ink-receiving layer 15 may be in the range of solids (dry) at 3 g / m ² or more 55 g / m ² or less (in wet weight 100 g / m ² or more 120 g / m ² or less), preferably 20 g / m ^{2 to} 50 g / m ² , more preferably 20 g / m ^{2 to} 45 g / m ² . Similarly, application means such as a roll coater or a gravure coater is also used for applying the ink receiving layer 15.
Note that the basis weight is too small, blurring occurs due to a decrease in ink absorption capacity, and print quality is degraded. Further, even if the basis weight of the ink receiving layer 15 is too larger than the above range, the ink receiving layer 15 becomes thick, the filler powder from the cut surface is generated, or the ink receiving layer 15 is too thick. The fibers 16 and the gaps 17 of the fibrous sheet 13 are buried.

By setting the basis weight / single fiber fineness of the fibrous sheet 13, the gap 17, the basis weight of the bonding adhesive 14 (adhesive layer), and the basis weight of the ink receiving layer 15 to appropriate values as described above, the fibers The bonding adhesive 14 (adhesive layer) applied on the porous sheet 13 and the ink receiving layer 15 laminated thereon are also undulated by the dense fiber portion 20 and the transparent portion 25 of the fibrous sheet 13. Alternatively, the appearance is rich in change according to the gloss difference between the bright portion 18 and the light leakage portion 19.
Here, if it explains in detail about this translucent part 25, in the surface of translucent part 25, thickness of pasting adhesive 14 (adhesive layer) rather than fiber dense part 20 which covers the surface of metal layer 12 of the circumference of the surface The thickness of the bonding adhesive 14 (adhesive layer) on the surface of the translucent portion 25 is transmitted through the adhesive layer (14) of the bonding adhesive and the ink receiving layer 15 to form a metal. That is, the surface of the layer 12 is visible.

In other words, the bonding adhesive 14 and the ink receiving agent (15) are materials that can transmit light when the bonding adhesive layer (14) and the ink receiving layer 15 of the bonding adhesive become a certain thickness. The thinness of the adhesive layer (14) of the bonding adhesive and the ink receiving layer 15 is determined by the pigment, dye, etc. blended in the bonding adhesive 14 and the ink receiving agent (15).
Therefore, even after an image is printed using the ink jet printer by the light transmitting portion 25, the surface of the metal layer 12 is transmitted through the adhesive layer (14) of the bonding adhesive and the ink receiving layer 15. Can be visually recognized, and a moderately suppressed metallic luster can be visually recognized.

Further, as described above, the fiber sheet 13, the bonding adhesive layer (14), and the light transmitting portion 25 of the ink receiving layer 15 are recessed more than the fiber dense portion 20 in which the peripheral fibers 16 overlap each other. Thus, it is possible to form minute irregularities on the surface (decorative surface) of the ink jet decorative material 22 and to give a new texture that has not existed before.
In addition, such a surface unevenness | corrugation is because the fiber dense part 20 with which the fiber 16 overlapped reached | attained the ink receiving layer 15 and the inkjet image 21 (image layer) laminated | stacked, and reached the surface of the inkjet decoration material 22, It may be formed.

Further, the inkjet decorative material 22 according to the present invention is a coating means in which the applied bonding adhesive 14 or ink receiving layer 15 or the like is formed into droplets by surface tension, or has a halftone dot (unevenness) like a gravure coater. The surface of the metal layer 12 is exposed from the gap 17 of the fibrous sheet 13 (that is, the fibrous sheet 13, the bonding adhesive 14, the ink receiving layer 15, the ink on the metal layer 12). There may be a part that does not exist).
In this case, the translucent part 25 in the present invention is a part where the surface of the metal layer 12 is exposed.

The ink for an ink jet printer in the present invention is a water-based ink whose solvent is water, a quick-drying ink whose solvent is a water-soluble (low boiling point drying at normal temperature) organic solvent such as ethanol or acetone, and the solvent is evaporated at normal temperature. There are oil-based inks that are not organic solvents, UV inks that are cured by ultraviolet irradiation, and the like.
In the case of oil-based ink or UV ink, the ink receiving layer 15 is not particularly required.

Ink colorants are roughly classified into dyes and pigments. Examples of dyes include direct dyes, acid dyes, and basic dyes. The pigments are classified into inorganic pigments and organic pigments. The inorganic pigments include white pigments such as zinc white and titanium dioxide, red pigments such as red lead and iron oxide red, yellow pigments such as yellow lead and zinc yellow, and ultra pigments. There are blue pigments such as marine blue and prussian blue, and black pigments that are carbon black.
Organic pigments include azo pigments, polycyclic pigments, lake pigments, and the like. Examples of other ink additives include pH adjusters, metal sequestering agents, antifungal agents, viscosity modifiers, surface tension adjusters, wetting agents, surfactants, and rust inhibitors.

In the present invention, mainly using water-based ink, the inkjet image 21 is printed (coated) on the surface of the ink receiving layer 15 by an inkjet printer. Since the printed ink is fixed within the thickness of the ink receiving layer 15, even if the ink is printed, the formed translucent portion 25 is not buried in the ink.
Therefore, even after the inkjet image 21 is printed, naturally, the translucent portion 25 that can visually recognize the surface of the metal layer 12 is provided at a position corresponding to the gap 17 of the fibrous sheet 13.

In addition, this invention is not limited to embodiment mentioned above. Each configuration of the inkjet decoration material 22 or the entire structure, shape, dimensions, and the like can be appropriately changed in accordance with the spirit of the present invention.
On the surface of the metal layer 12 laminated on the base material 11, before laminating the fibrous sheet 13, unless the surface gloss is concealed and impaired, some image is printed, colored, or It can also be embossed.

In addition to the basis weight / single fiber fineness of the fiber sheet 13 and the gap 17 as described above, in the fiber sheet 13, the ratio of the fiber 16 portion and the gap 17 portion therebetween is within a predetermined range. Also pay attention to what is inside.
Specifically, the filling ratio of the fiber 16 represented by the following formula (1) is 2 to 40%, preferably 9 to 20%.
