  • Patent Document 3 Polyvinyl alcohol (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "PVA") used in Patent Document 3 and the like is generally known to have excellent affinity with moisture.
  • PVA Polyvinyl alcohol
  • FIG. 1 of Patent Document 3 when a PVA film 101 is applied to the skin, moisture 105 evaporated from the skin binds to PVA molecules 103 in the film, and the PVA molecules 103 move so as to attract each other around the moisture 105, and it was thought that gaps 107 that allow moisture to pass through are generated. Therefore, in a low humidity environment, the PVA molecules 103 do not move near the outermost surface of the PVA film 101, so that gaps 107 that allow moisture to pass through are not formed, while, on the other hand, as shown in FIG.
  • the inventors believe that the crystallization in PVA film is caused by the action of hydrogen bonds associated with the hydroxyl groups of PVA. As such, they assumed that the crystalline structure associated with the hydroxyl groups of PVA contributes to humidity responsiveness, and similarly assumed that naturally occurring components that have hydroxyl groups and can exhibit a crystalline structure would be able to exhibit humidity responsiveness, and so they carried out material selection work. As a result, the inventors discovered that, among the various naturally occurring components, polysaccharides can be used to form a film that exhibits humidity responsiveness similar to PVA film, and that these polysaccharides can be used as humidity regulators. They believe that films prepared using polysaccharides can exhibit humidity responsiveness because, due to the influence of moisture, amorphous parts and crystalline parts can be generated in the same way as PVA films.
