Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an emergency toilet package, an emergency package, and a method for using the emergency toilet package. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, treatment agents have been put into practical use for treating excrement such as urine and feces in emergencies. For example, treatment is carried out by opening a bag containing the treatment agent and spraying the treatment agent onto the excreted urine. However, Patent Document 1 discloses a urine absorbing and solidifying package that does not require such spraying work or a separate dedicated urine bag, and is low-cost and compact. The package contains activated coconut shell activated carbon and a water-absorbent polymer sealed in a bag made of water-soluble paper. In Patent Document 1, when using the device for urination, the urine absorbing and coagulating packaging is placed in a plastic bag or the like containing urine (urine), and the water-soluble paper dissolves upon contact with the urine (moisture), allowing the coagulant to absorb and coagulate the urine. The water-soluble paper is said to be a water-disintegrable substrate, particularly a water-dispersible fiber, having specific properties. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 5611263 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, the urine absorbing and coagulating package in Patent Document 1 is made of water-soluble paper, so if the user's hands are wet before use and moisture adheres to the urine absorbing and coagulating package, the water-soluble paper may dissolve and the coagulant may spill out of the urine absorbing and coagulating package, leaving room for improvement.

[0005] Furthermore, the coagulants used to treat such excrement are not for normal use but are emergency supplies prepared for emergencies, and are usually stored for long periods in poorly ventilated environments such as warehouses or closets.

[0006] Generally, the long-term shelf life of cleaning agents is about five years, and it is thought that emergency toilet packaging will also need to maintain its effectiveness for a similar five-year shelf life. Taking this into consideration, if we reexamine the urine absorbing and coagulating packaging of Patent Document 1, although it has many advantages in use, it uses water-soluble paper as the outer packaging, and so there is thought to be room for improvement in terms of long-term storage.

[0007] Furthermore, in Patent Document 1, even if the urine absorption and coagulation package appears to be problem-free at first glance, there is a risk that after long-term storage, the coconut shell activated carbon and water-absorbing polymer inside may become inactivated to the point where they no longer perform their intended functions, and this cannot be determined from the outside (visibility), so there is room for improvement.

[0008] The present invention solves the above problem. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] One aspect of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is an emergency toilet package comprising an exterior and a coagulant having at least a water-absorbing polymer, the exterior is a bag-shaped exterior made of nonwoven fabric, has at least one adhesive portion on the periphery, and seals the coagulant inside; The wet excrement and the emergency toilet package are placed in a container, When the emergency toilet package is brought into contact with water, the water-absorbing polymer absorbs the water, the coagulant expands, and the adhesive part comes off, The emergency toilet packaging body causes the coagulant to fly out from the adhesive portion to coagulate the excrement.

[0010] Another aspect of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is a method for using an emergency toilet package having an exterior and a coagulant having at least a water-absorbing polymer, the exterior is a bag-shaped exterior made of nonwoven fabric, has at least one adhesive portion on the periphery, and seals the coagulant inside; Putting the wet excrement and the emergency toilet package into a container, When the emergency toilet package is brought into contact with the water, the water-absorbing polymer absorbs the water, and the coagulant expands to separate the adhesive portion, This is a method of using the emergency toilet packaging body, in which the coagulant pops out from the adhesive part and coagulates the excrement. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] The emergency toilet package of the present invention prevents the coagulant from leaking from the emergency toilet package even if the user's hands are wet and a small amount of moisture adheres to the hands before use, allowing the emergency toilet package to be used. Furthermore, the emergency toilet packaging of the present invention has improved long-term storage stability and visibility. In addition, the emergency package containing the emergency toilet package of the present invention and the method of using the emergency toilet package also have the same effects as those described above.

[0013] Specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below. However, more detailed descriptions than necessary may be omitted. For example, detailed descriptions of well-known matters or redundant descriptions of substantially identical configurations may be omitted. This is to avoid unnecessary redundancy in the following description and to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art. Note that the inventors provide the accompanying drawings and the following description to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the present disclosure, and do not intend for them to limit the subject matter described in the claims. In the following description, identical or similar components are designated by the same reference numerals.

[0014] (Embodiment 1) First, the overall configuration of the emergency toilet package 1 will be described, and then each component will be described in detail. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the emergency toilet package 1 in embodiment 1, where (a) is a schematic perspective view of the emergency toilet package 1 and (b) is a schematic AA cross-sectional view of the emergency toilet package 1. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the usage operation of the emergency toilet package 1 in embodiment 1, where (a) is a diagram showing the emergency toilet package 1 before it comes into contact with water, (b) is a diagram showing the emergency toilet package 1 after it comes into contact with water, and (c) is a diagram showing the state in which the emergency toilet package 1 has solidified excrement.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1(a), three emergency toilet packages 1 are connected in series. When in use, one emergency toilet package 1 is separated from the continuously connected emergency toilet packages 1 and used. Focusing on one emergency toilet package 1, the emergency toilet package 1 has an exterior 2 and a coagulant 10. The exterior 2 is a bag-like bag made of nonwoven fabric, has a rectangular shape, and has a front side 31, a rear side 32, a right side 33, and a right side . The front side 31, right side 33, and right side 34 are the adhesive portion 4, and the rear side 32 is the side where the nonwoven fabric described below is folded back. The exterior 2 only needs to have at least one adhesive portion 4 on the periphery of the exterior 2 .

[0016] As shown in FIG. 1(b), the exterior 2 has a front exterior 2a and a back exterior 2b, and has adhesive parts 4 spaced apart at a predetermined interval. The adhesive portion 4 is the portion where the front exterior 2a and the back exterior 2b are adhered to each other. The coagulant 10 is provided between the front exterior 2 a and the back exterior 2 b and is sealed by the adhesive part 4 . Therefore, the coagulant 10 will not leak out of the emergency toilet package 1 unless it comes into contact with a large amount of water (when not in use). The coagulant 10 contains at least a water-absorbing polymer that absorbs water.

[0017] (How to use) Next, how to use the emergency toilet package 1 will be described. Fig. 2 is a schematic operational diagram showing how to use the emergency toilet package 1 in embodiment 1. Figs. 3 to 7 are schematic diagrams showing the emergency toilet package 1 in use. Here, "excrement containing water" is defined in a narrow sense to mean excrement such as urine, urine and feces, and vomit. In a broad sense, "excrement containing water" is defined to mean a mixture of an object to be disposed of, such as food, and water such as drink.

[0018] First, as shown in FIG. 2(a), a user has one emergency toilet package 1. As shown in FIG. 3, the user prepares a container 23 such as a plastic bag or a waterproof paper bag, opens the lid 21 of the toilet 20, and places the container 23 on the toilet body 22. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the top of the container 23 is folded over the top of the toilet body 22, and the top of the container 23 is sandwiched between the lid 21 and the toilet body 22. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the user excretes (here, urine and feces) into the container 23.

[0019] Next, as shown in Figure 8 (S1) and Figure 5, the user puts the wet excrement and the emergency toilet package 1 into the container 23. Immediately after putting them in, the adhesive part 4 of the emergency toilet package 1 is not detached. Next, as shown in Figure 8 (S2) and Figure 2 (b), when the emergency toilet packaging body 1 comes into contact with the moisture in the excrement, the water-absorbing polymer 6 absorbs the moisture in the excrement, and the coagulant 10 expands and releases the adhesive part 4 (here, one side) (Figure 6). Next, as shown in FIG. 8(S3) and FIG. 2(c), the expanded coagulant 10 pops out from the adhesive portion 4, and the coagulant 10 coagulates the excrement (FIG. 7). Finally, the user removes the container 23, closes the opening of the container 23, and discards it in a trash can.

[0020] According to the above aspect, the solidified excrement can be disposed of cleanly without leaking out of the container even if the container is slightly punctured. Furthermore, even if the user's hands are wet and a small amount of moisture is attached to the hands before using the emergency toilet package 1, the coagulant 10 will not leak from the emergency toilet package 1, and the emergency toilet package 1 can be used. This is because even if a small amount of moisture comes into contact with the emergency toilet package 1, the emergency toilet package 1 will not expand to the extent that the contact portion 4 is removed.

[0021] Next, each component will be described in detail.

[0022] (Exterior) The material of the exterior 2 in the first embodiment is a nonwoven fabric. A method for manufacturing the exterior casing 2 of the first embodiment will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 1(b), one piece of nonwoven fabric is folded in the middle with the coagulant 10 sandwiched between them, and the front outer sheath 2a and the back outer sheath 2b are overlapped. Next, the front side edge 31, right side edge 33, and left side edge 34 where the front side exterior 2a and the back side exterior 2b overlap are bonded by heat sealing or the like, and the coagulant 10 is enclosed in the exterior 2. Note that the rear side edge 32 is a folded portion and does not become the adhesive portion 4. It is also possible to apply adhesive to at least one of the front exterior 2a and the back exterior 2b in advance, and then bond the applied portions together.

[0023] In addition, taking into consideration ease of insertion, the surface area of ​​the exterior packaging 2 of one emergency toilet packaging 1 is preferably 4 to 800 square cm, more preferably 16 to 400 square cm, and even more preferably 50 to 200 square cm.

[0024] (nonwoven fabric) Such nonwoven fabrics are made by intertwining raw fibers without weaving them, and natural fibers, chemical fibers, etc. can be used. Chemical fibers are preferred because they have a desired level of breathability and hydrophobicity, and also because they can be mass-produced at low cost.

[0025] From the viewpoint of heat-sealing the front edge 31, right edge 33, and left edge 34 where the front exterior 2a and the back exterior 2b overlap, the fiber raw material of the nonwoven fabric is preferably polyethylene and / or polypropylene, and more preferably polyethylene, which softens at around 100°C and can be bonded by heat melting at a relatively low temperature.

[0026] From the viewpoint of breathability and visibility, the nonwoven fabric 3 preferably has a median pore size of 0.1 μm or more and 10 μm or less, more preferably 0.5 μm or more and 2 μm or less, and an average thickness of preferably 0.1 mm or more and 2 mm or less, more preferably 0.2 mm or more and 1 mm or less.

[0027] (Adhesive part) The adhesive portion 4 is a portion where nonwoven fabric is bonded together, and it is sufficient that the exterior 2 has at least one adhesive portion 4 . In order to achieve sealing and unsealing functions, the adhesive portion 4 is preferably linear with a width of 1 mm or more and 10 mm or less, and more preferably linear with multiple bends, and the width of the adhesive portion 4 is preferably 2 mm or more and 5 mm or less.

[0028] (Coagulant 10) The coagulant 10 is a material that expands when it absorbs moisture, i.e., absorbs moisture and increases in volume, and contains at least a water-absorbing polymer 6 that polymerizes with the moisture in the excrement, absorbs the moisture, and coagulates. The amount of coagulant 10 contained in one emergency toilet package 1 is preferably 3 g or more and 30 g or less, more preferably 5 g or more and 20 g or less, in order to properly treat excrement in actual use, while keeping the number of times it is added to a reasonable level and allowing additional additions to be made as needed. In addition, it may contain other agents such as expanding agents, deodorizing agents, deodorizing agents, water absorbing agents, coagulating agents, solidifying agents, and disinfectants, and may further contain auxiliary agents and accelerators related to expanding, deodorizing, deodorizing, water absorbing, coagulating, solidifying, and disinfecting.

[0029] In order to cause the adhesive joint 4 to open, the volume of such coagulant 10 at maximum expansion when saturated with water while maintaining its shape must be 20 times or more, preferably 40 times or more, and even more preferably 80 times or more, the volume when dry.

[0030] Furthermore, in order to ensure a sufficient deodorizing effect, the coagulant 10 is preferably capable of adsorbing 10 times or more, and more preferably 50 times or more, of ammonia gas by volume, with its own volume being taken as 1.

[0031] (water-absorbing polymer) The water-absorbing polymer 6 is a polymer resin material that can absorb and retain water at 100 times or more, particularly 1000 times or more its own weight, and a polymer resin-based material containing 80% by weight or more of a polymer resin such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, polyacrylonitrile, or sodium polyacrylate as its main component can be used.

[0032] As such absorbent polymer 6, sodium polyacrylate is preferred because it has particularly high water absorption, and since it has many carboxyl groups, it is highly hydrophilic. Since coagulation caused by gelation accompanying the formation of a crosslinked network structure by the sodium salt is promoted, it exhibits particularly excellent swelling and coagulation properties, making it suitable as absorbent polymer 6.

[0033] Such sodium polyacrylate in granular form is currently widely used in paper diapers, sanitary napkins, etc., and it is preferable from the viewpoint of resource recycling to use sodium polyacrylate that is no longer needed in the manufacturing process of these products and is to be discarded as the water-absorbent polymer 6 according to the present invention.

[0034] It is preferable that the absorbent polymer 6 mixes with the excrement quickly after the adhesive part 4 is released, and is incorporated as uniformly as possible into the entire coagulated material that forms while absorbing the moisture therein, and from this viewpoint, it is preferable that it is in granular form. If the particle size of the granular water-absorbing polymer 6 is too large, the nonwoven fabric (exterior packaging 2) will quickly swell. On the other hand, if the particle size of the water-absorbing polymer 6 is small, the speed at which the exterior 2 swells slows down, and the speed at which the nonwoven fabric (exterior 2) swells becomes difficult to disperse. Furthermore, if the particle size of the water-absorbing polymer 6 is too small, there is a risk that the water-absorbing polymer 6 will spill out from the nonwoven fabric. Therefore, the particle size of the water-absorbing polymer 6 is preferably about 100 μm (0.1 mm) to 3.0 mm.

[0035] (Emergency packaging) From the viewpoint of long-term storage, for example, maintaining the product in a usable state for 10 years or more, an emergency package packed with a waterproof material is preferred. Specifically, an emergency toilet package is preferably an emergency package in which the emergency toilet package is sealed and packaged in a waterproof sheet containing an aluminum layer. In addition, from the viewpoint of ease of storage, it is preferable that a plurality of emergency toilet packages 1 are packed together, and more preferably, they are packed together with a desiccant such as silica gel.

[0036] (Embodiment 2) In the second embodiment, the coagulant 10 contains at least the water-absorbing polymer 6 and activated carbon. The method for producing the emergency toilet package 1 in the second embodiment is different from the method for producing the emergency toilet package 1 in the first embodiment.

[0037] The coagulant 10 of the second embodiment contains at least the water-absorbing polymer 6 and activated carbon with a deodorizing effect.

[0038] A method for producing the emergency toilet package 1 of the second embodiment will be described. First, the coagulant 10 is placed separately at a predetermined interval on a rectangular first nonwoven fabric (2a). At this time, the coagulant 10 is placed at intervals around the center of the first nonwoven fabric (2a) so that there are areas (later adhesive parts 4) around the coagulant 10 that are free of the coagulant 10 (see FIG. 1(a)). Next, a second nonwoven fabric (2b) having the same shape as the first nonwoven fabric (2a) is placed on top of the first nonwoven fabric (2a) (see FIG. 1(b)). Finally, the first nonwoven fabric (2a) and the second nonwoven fabric (2b) are heat-sealed in the regions of the four sides where there is no coagulant 10, to form adhesive joints 4 on the four sides (see FIG. 1(b)). Focusing on one emergency toilet package 1, there are four adhesive parts 4, so compared to the first embodiment (three adhesive parts 4), the number of parts that come off increases. Therefore, in the emergency toilet package 1 of the second embodiment, the adhesive part 4 can be easily removed.

[0039] (activated carbon) The first advantage of incorporating activated carbon into the absorbent polymer of the coagulant 10 is that it enhances deodorizing properties. The second advantage of incorporating activated carbon into the absorbent polymer is that after use as an emergency toilet packaging, it can be disposed of as burnable waste. Because activated carbon is an organic compound, it can be disposed of as burnable waste.

[0040] As activated carbon, coconut shell charcoal, which is a plant-based material, is well-known, but other materials such as sawdust charcoal, wood charcoal, and coal-based materials can also be used. The particle size of the activated carbon is preferably about 0.1 mm to 2.0 mm.

[0041] When the volume of activated carbon is A and the volume of water-absorbent polymer is B, the ratio of A:B is preferably within the range of 1:99 to 30:70, and the ratio of the weight of activated carbon (A1) to the weight of water-absorbent polymer (B1) is also preferably within the range of 1:99 to 30:70. Furthermore, the ratio of A:B is preferably within the range of 1:9 to 1.5:8.5, and the ratio of the weight of activated carbon (A1) to the weight of water-absorbent polymer (B1) is also preferably within the range of 1:9 to 1.5:8.5. Here, when the ratio of the weight of activated carbon (A1) to the weight of water-absorbent polymer (B1) is 1:99, if the weight of activated carbon is 0.1 g, the weight of water-absorbent polymer will be 9.9 g, and the total weight of activated carbon and water-absorbent polymer will be 10 g. In addition, when the ratio of the weight of activated carbon (A) to the weight of water-absorbent polymer (B) is 30:70, if the weight of activated carbon is 3g, the weight of water-absorbent polymer will be 7g, and the total weight of activated carbon and water-absorbent polymer will be 10g. Therefore, in the above case, the weight of one bag of emergency toilet package 1 will be 10g.

[0042] Activated carbon is a porous material made primarily of carbon, which deodorizes unpleasant odors from excrement, particularly ammonia gas, by adsorbing large amounts of the gas over a surface area that is extremely large compared to its volume.

[0043] Such activated carbon may be produced from mineral raw materials such as coal or petroleum, but the activated carbon according to the present invention is preferably produced from plant raw materials such as wood, bamboo, coconut shells, walnut shells, and bagasse, which is sugarcane residue, and from the viewpoint of effective utilization of waste, it is more preferable that the raw material be one or more selected from the group consisting of coconut shells, walnut shells, and bagasse.

[0044] Activated carbon is produced by heating these raw materials to 800°C or higher in a gas such as steam or air to carbonize and activate them. At this stage, the material can be made more porous by treating it with chemicals before heating. In addition, when manufacturing the emergency toilet package 1, before sealing the coagulant 10 in the exterior packaging 2, it is preferable to perform an activation treatment to remove adsorbed moisture and the like from the activated carbon. More preferably, the activation treatment is carried out while mixing the activated carbon and the water-absorbing polymer 6. As a result, the coagulant 10 can have higher performance.

[0045] After the coagulant 10 expands and the adhesive part 4 comes off, the activated carbon also jumps out from the adhesive part 4 into the excrement. At this time, the activated carbon is preferably uniformly incorporated into the entire coagulation formed by the water-absorbing polymer 6 so as to quickly mix with the excrement and deodorize the entire excrement. From this point of view, the water-absorbing polymer 6 is preferably in a powder form, and the average particle size thereof is preferably 10 μm or more and 2 mm or less, and more preferably 100 μm or more and 1 mm or less. In order to make the water-absorbing polymer 6 into a powder form, it is possible to use one that has been subjected to a powdering treatment such as pulverization.

[0046] According to the above embodiment, the emergency toilet package 1 can be easily removed due to the increase in the number of opening locations caused by the expansion of the coagulant 10. In addition, a deodorizing effect can be expected, and the package can be manufactured at low cost.

[0047] Example 1 In Example 1, two samples, an emergency toilet package 1 (sample 1) and an emergency package (sample 2), were prepared and an experiment was carried out. The coagulant 10 of the emergency toilet package 1 contains the absorbent polymer 6 and activated carbon of the second embodiment. The method for producing the emergency toilet package 1 is the same as the method for producing the first embodiment.

[0048] A method for producing the emergency toilet package 1 of Example 1 will be described below. As the activated carbon, 1 g of activated carbon (manufactured by Cerachem, product number: BCW8-32) with an average particle size of 200 μm, made from coconut shells, was obtained. As the water-absorbing polymer 6, 9 g of sodium polyacrylate (AQUAKEEP manufactured by Sumitomo Seika Chemicals Co., Ltd.) having an average particle size of 200 μm was obtained. As nonwoven fabric 3, a 600 cm2 polyethylene nonwoven fabric (Nippon Paper Papylia, Heatlon Paper, product number GPS-20) with a median pore size of 1 μm and an average thickness of 0.5 mm was obtained.

[0049] The activated carbon and absorbent polymer 6 were mixed and placed in a heating mixer (a mixer manufactured by Taguchi), and an activation treatment was carried out in which the mixture was heated at 150°C for 10 minutes while being thoroughly mixed and degassed.The mixture was then removed from the heating mixer and cooled to room temperature to prepare 20 g of coagulant 10.

[0050] The prepared 20 g of coagulant 10 was placed in two piles of 10 g each on the lower half of the 600 cm2 nonwoven fabric 3 at a distance from each other, and the upper half of the nonwoven fabric 3 was folded over the two piles of coagulant 10 so that the upper half completely covered these two piles.

[0051] Thereafter, the upper half and the lower half of the nonwoven fabric were heated and pressed along three sides (excluding the folded portion) around the mound, including the separated portion, using a heat pressing device (manufactured by Topac, product number: MN-360T) in which a 2 mm wide heat pressing straight portion was heated to 150°C, to obtain a nonwoven fabric sealed product of coagulant 10 in which two mounds of 10 g of coagulant 10 were sealed in nonwoven fabric 3 by the heat pressing portion including adhesive portion 4.

[0052] Finally, the center of the width of the heat-pressed portion including the adhesive portion 4 of the nonwoven fabric sealed product of the coagulant 10 was cut with a cutter to produce two emergency toilet packaging bodies 1 each having an adhesive portion 4 with a width of 1 mm. The surface area of ​​the emergency toilet package 1 was 100 square centimeters.

[0053] One of the two emergency toilet packages 1 produced as described above was used as a subject of the experiment (sample 1). The other emergency toilet package 1 was sealed with an aluminum pouch (a waterproof sheet containing an aluminum layer) to produce an emergency package (sample 2). Therefore, Sample 1 and Sample 2 were subjected to the following accelerated deterioration test.

[0054] (Accelerated aging test) To confirm long-term storage stability, an accelerated deterioration test was conducted on a nonwoven fabric type emergency coagulant (IG420 manufactured by Fuji Light Industry Co., Ltd. and Yamato Scientific Co., Ltd.) as follows. Here, because it is considered necessary for the emergency toilet packaging to maintain its effectiveness for five years, an accelerated deterioration test was conducted for an accelerated time equivalent to the usual five years (approximately 43,800 hours).

[0055] Specifically, the target product (sample 1) was an emergency toilet packaging made of nonwoven fabric containing activated carbon, and the target product (sample 1) packed in an aluminum bag as an outer bag was used as the emergency packaging (sample 2), and an accelerated deterioration test was conducted. Then, (1) after the accelerated deterioration test, the condition of the nonwoven fabric and the activated carbon-containing coagulant 10 of the subject product (sample 1) and the emergency package (sample 2) was visually observed. (2) The activated carbon-containing coagulant 10 was removed from each of the target product (sample 1) and the emergency packaging (sample 2), and 400 cc of 1% by weight saline solution was poured into each of the removed coagulants 10, and the coagulation state of each of the poured coagulants was visually observed.

[0056] The accelerated shortened test period was determined to be approximately 720 hours (approximately 30 days) based on the following test conditions, using the "Hallberg-Peck model," a model using relative humidity that is used when conducting accelerated tests with high temperature and humidity as the temperature and humidity acceleration model, and calculated using the following formula (1). The "Hallberg-Peck model" is described in the non-patent literature "RECENT HUMIDITY ACCELERATIONS, A BASE FOR TESTING STANDARDS", ?. Hallberg, D. Peck, Quality and Reliability Engineering International (1991)" and "Comprehensive Model for Humidity Testing Correlation, D. Peck, 24th International Reliability Physics Symposium (1986)." The website address for the "Hallberg-Peck model" is "https: / / keisan.casio.jp / exec / user / 1631879716."

number

[0058] (Test results) For the emergency packaging body of Sample 2, there was no change in appearance of the nonwoven fabric or the coagulant 10 after the accelerated deterioration test compared to before deterioration, and no deterioration was noticeable. Furthermore, the coagulant 10 of sample 2 coagulated saline solution (400 cc, 1% by weight) in 1 to 2 minutes.

[0059] For the target product, Sample 1, the appearance of the nonwoven fabric remained unchanged after the accelerated deterioration test compared to before deterioration, and no deterioration was noticeable. On the other hand, the coagulant 10 absorbed moisture and became rubbery, and it appeared to have deteriorated to some extent in appearance. However, the coagulant 10 of Sample 1 coagulated saline solution (400 cc, 1% by weight) in 5 to 6 minutes, and there were no particular problems in use.

[0060] As described above, the emergency toilet packaging body and emergency packaging body of the present invention are excellent in long-term storage stability and visibility. Furthermore, even if the user's hands are wet and a small amount of moisture adheres to the emergency toilet package of the present invention before use, the coagulant will not leak out of the emergency toilet package, and the emergency toilet package can be used.

[0061] As described above, the present invention includes the emergency toilet packaging, emergency packaging, and method of using the emergency toilet packaging described in the following items.

[0062] [Item 1] An emergency toilet package comprising an exterior and a coagulant having at least a water-absorbing polymer, the exterior is a bag-shaped exterior made of nonwoven fabric, has at least one adhesive portion on the periphery, and seals the coagulant inside; The wet excrement and the emergency toilet package are placed in a container, When the emergency toilet package is brought into contact with water, the water-absorbing polymer absorbs the water, the coagulant expands, and the adhesive part comes off, The emergency toilet package causes the coagulant to fly out from the adhesive part to coagulate the excrement. According to the above-mentioned aspect, the coagulant in the packaging expands due to moisture permeating through the packaging, causing the adhesive portion of the packaging to separate, accelerating the penetration of moisture into the packaging. Then, the entire coagulant expands, allowing the coagulant to coagulate excrement.
