Provided is a method of manufacturing a toilet seat that is formed by joining together a seat front member and a seat rear member. The method includes a cutting step of forming a processed surface of a joint part between the seat front member and the seat rear member by cutting the joint part between the seat front member and the seat rear member with a cutting tool having a curved cutting blade part such that the shape of the processed surface is formed in a curved shape in which the seat rear member side thereof protrudes outward in a cross section perpendicular to the direction in which the joint part extends.

Toilet seat and method of manufacturing same

To provide a thermosensitive recording label, which contains a base, an under layer, a thermosensitive coloring layer, a barrier layer, a release layer, and an adhesive layer, where the under layer, the thermosensitive coloring layer, the barrier layer, and the release layer are disposed on one surface of the base in this order, and the adhesive layer is disposed on the other surface of the base, wherein the release layer contains a cured product of a heat curing silicone resin, and the barrier layer contains a cured product of a water-soluble resin with a crosslinking agent, and inorganic filler.

Thermosensitive recording label

To provide a thermosensitive recording material, which contains: a base; a thermosensitive coloring layer containing a leuco dye and a color developer; at least one protective layer containing a resin, a crosslinking agent, and wax, wherein the thermosensitive coloring layer is disposed on the base, and the protective layer is disposed on the thermosensitive coloring layer, and wherein the resin is reactive carbonyl group-containing polyvinyl alcohol, the crosslinking agent is a hydrazide compound, and the wax is oxidized polyethylene wax.

Thermosensitive recording material

Provided is a thermosensitive recording material that comprises a support, a thermosensitive coloring layer on the support, and a protective layer on the thermosensitive coloring layer, wherein the thermosensitive coloring layer comprises a leuco dye and a color developer, and the protective layer comprises a diacetone-modified polyvinyl alcohol resin and a (meth)acrylic resin.

A thermal recording material is provided including a substrate, a thermal coloring layer located overlying the substrate, and a protective layer located overlying the thermal coloring layer.
