There is provided a shoe press belt for a papermaking machine, comprising one or more resin layers. At least a part of the resin layers comprises a polyurethane resin comprising polymeric MIDI as an ingredient. The polyurethane resin may be a resin obtainable by reacting one or more curing agent(s) having an active hydrogen group, polymeric MDI and one or more urethane prepolymer(s) having a terminal isocyanate group, the urethane prepolymer(s) being obtainable by reacting one or more isocyanate compound(s) with one or more polyol(s).

Shoe press belt

A shoe press belt with excellent mechanical properties, in particular a shoe press belt with excellent crack resistance and excellent resistance to land edge deficiency. The shoe press belt includes a felt-side resin layer containing a resin formed by curing a prepolymer having a terminal isocyanate group (&#x2014;NCO) with a curing agent, wherein the prepolymer contains, in reacted form, a compound comprising 1,4-bis(isocyanate methyl) cyclohexane and a polycarbonate diol, and wherein the felt-side resin layer has grooves that are configured to receive water squeezed from a felt.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a shoe press belt which exhibits improvement in mechanical characteristics such as crack resistance, wear resistance, delamination resistance and bending fatigue resistance, particularly in the surface wear resistance of the shoe press belt and the crack resistance of the bottom regions of water receiving parts. A shoe press belt which is produced by integrating a reinforcing substrate with a polyurethane layer including at least a felt-side layer and in which water-receiving parts are formed in the felt-side layer, wherein the polyurethane equivalent value of the second resin layer including the bottom regions of the water-receiving parts is adjusted so as to be larger than that of the first resin layer including a surface which is to be brought into contact with a felt.

Shoe press belt for papermaking

A doctor blade for removing water, which excels in water removal capability and shape retention capacity, and suppresses abrasion of the belt or other mating member with which it cooperates, is a fibrous laminate comprising integrated base material and batt fiber layers. By impregnating resin into one side of the fibrous laminate, a layer in which the amount of impregnated resin is large and a layer in which the amount of impregnated resin is small are provided. In use, the layer in which the amount of resin is small is in contact with a belt or other mating member. The doctor blades can be adapted to the mating member easily, and excel in the water removal capability and shape retention, and suppress abrasion of the mating member.

Doctor blade

A paper making felt for use in hot press or press drying paper making processes comprising a base cloth layer and batt fiber layers, with at least the paper-contacting surface layer of the batt fiber layers composed principally of poly(paraphenylene benzoxazole) fiber. The felt exhibits a high degree of resistance to flattening, and consequently its effectiveness in removing water from the paper and its useful life for that purpose are enhanced.
