PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an exothermic composition to which antiseptic and antifungal performance can be added and which has good coating performance.SOLUTION: There is provided an exothermic composition containing following components (A) to (D) and water, where pH at 25°C of slurry adjusted so that the content of water is 62 pts.mass based on 100 pts.mass of the component (A) is 10.8 or more. The (A) is an oxidizable metal. The (B) is a carbon component. The (C) is a weak acidic alkali metal salt. The (D) is carboxymethyl cellulose having a weight average molecular weight Mw of 150,000 to 800,000 and a degree of etherification of 0.55 to 1 or a salt thereof of 0.35 to 1.8 pts.mass based on 100 pts.mass of the component (A). There is provided an exothermic body where component (C) is a tertiary alkali metal phosphate of 0.35 to 1.8 pts.mass based on 100 pts.mass of the component (A).COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】発熱組成物に防腐防黴能を付与でき、かつ、良好な塗工性能を有する発熱組成物の提供。【解決手段】次の成分(A)~(D)及び水を含有し、成分(A)100質量部に対して、水が62質量部となるように調整したスラリーの25℃におけるpHが10.8以上である発熱組成物。(A)被酸化性金属、(B)炭素成分、(C)弱酸のアルカリ金属塩、(D)重量平均分子量Mw15万~80万、かつ、エーテル化度0.55~1のカルボキシメチルセルロース又はその塩:成分(A)100質量部に対して0.35~1.8質量部。成分(C)が第三リン酸アルカリ金属塩で、成分(A)100質量部に対し、0.35~1.8質量部である発熱体。【選択図】図2
