PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nonaqueous heat generating composition that allows heat generation at room temperature, and facilitates the temperature control, and a hyperthermic product using the same.SOLUTION: A nonaqueous heat generating composition contains (A) at least one selected from an inorganic anhydride that generates heat by the reaction with water and has a heat of reaction of 10-500 kJ/mol, and a hydrate thereof, and (B) a water-soluble cellulose ether having a methoxy group as a substituent. The nonaqueous heat generating composition generates heat by the addition of water.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2019,JPO&INPIT【課題】室温で発熱させることができ、温度制御が可能な非水系発熱組成物、及びこれを利用した温熱製品を提供する。【解決手段】(A)水との反応で発熱し、反応熱が10~500kJ/molである無機無水物及びその水和物から選ばれる1種以上、及び(B)置換基にメトキシ基を含有する水溶性セルロースエーテルを含有し、水の添加により発熱する非水系発熱組成物。【選択図】図2
