The invention core member is prepared by treatment of non-woven fabric with a coating composition which comprises an emulsion-form curable vinyl polymer, heat-expandable microspheres, and a thiocyanate compound, and this core member is advantageously utilized with use of liquid-form unsaturated polyester-based molding composition which contains a cobalt-containing compound as cure accelerator, wherein color development becomes available when said unsaturated polyester-based liquid composition infiltrates into voids of the core member, due to encounter of the thiocyanate compound with the cobalt-containing compound, thereby infiltration of said liquid composition is monitored by use of the color development.

Core member for fabrication of shaped plastic

This invention relates to a method of producing a moisture-permeable artificial leather comprising transferring a water-soluble inorganic salt-containing polyurethane layer onto a base fabric and washing the polyurethane layer with water to extract out said water-soluble inorganic salt. A feature of the invention is that the inorganic salt used has a particle diameter range such that at least 90% thereof is not larger than 30 microns.
