  • the crosslinking reaction between the (meth)acrylic resin (A) and the polyfunctional isocyanate compound (B) occurs only in the structural unit (a-2)
  • the water absorption layer 4 becomes too soft and, while exhibiting sufficient flexibility, lacks elasticity. Therefore, by including the structural unit (a-3), which is harder than the structural unit (a-2), as a component of the (meth)acrylic resin (A), a water-absorbing layer 4 having a good balance between flexibility and elasticity can be obtained.

  • the number of isocyanate groups is less than the number of hydroxyl groups, the number of isocyanate groups not involved in crosslinking is reduced.
  • the crosslink density of the water absorption layer 4 is increased, the hardness of the water absorption layer 4 is improved, and the frictional resistance is reduced.
  • the equivalent ratio (NCO/OH) is too small, the number of crosslinking points that are the basis for forming the water-absorbing layer 4 becomes too small, resulting in insufficient strength of the water-absorbing layer 4. Therefore, there is a lower limit to the equivalent ratio (NCO/OH).
