CLEANING MEMBER AND ELASTIC MEMBER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18519423 titled 'CLEANING MEMBER AND ELASTIC MEMBER

Simplified Explanation

The cleaning member described in the patent application is made of an elastic member that includes polyurethane. The key characteristics of this cleaning member are as follows:

  • The peak temperature of tan δ is at 15.0°C or below in the temperature range of -20°C to +60°C.
  • The maximum value of tan δ is between 0.20 to 0.55.
  • Tan δ at a temperature of 55°C is 0.13 or larger.
  • The ratio M/M is at least 0.001, where M is the detected quantity of all ions obtained when the test piece is heated at a rate of temperature increase of 10°C/second to 1000°C using a direct-sampling mass spectrometer, and the integrated intensity of a peak in a derived ion thermogram that corresponds to a range of m/z values originating in multifunctional isocyanate with at least three isocyanate groups is M.

It would be important to investigate any potential environmental benefits, such as reduced waste or energy savings, to fully understand the sustainability implications of this technology.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a cleaning member, comprising an elastic member that includes polyurethane, wherein: when tan δ of a test piece sampled from the elastic member is measured in the temperature range of −20° C. to +60° C., the peak temperature of a peak indicating the maximum value of tan δ is at 15.0° C. or below; the maximum value of tan δ is 0.20 to 0.55; tan δ at a temperature of 55° C. is 0.13 or larger; and where the detected quantity of all ions obtained when the test piece is heated at a rate of temperature increase of 10° C./second to 1000° C. using a direct-sampling mass spectrometer is M and the integrated intensity of a peak in a derived ion thermogram that corresponds to a range of m/z values originating in multifunctional isocyanate with at least three isocyanate groups is M, M/M is at least 0.001.
