摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem in the conventional humidifying device that a water induction body sealing therein a water induction member formed of a porous material with a moisture permeable membrane, is limited to increase the humidifying performance since the moisture permeable membrane is poor in moisture diffusing properties.;SOLUTION: The both faces of a porous plate-like water induction member are covered with the moisture permeable body formed of a fluorocarbon ion exchange resin or a hydrocarbon ion exchange resin with a hydrophilic group and high moisture diffusing properties. The water induction body is formed such that water passes the water induction member and evaporates from the moisture permeable body. The hydrophilic group is a sulfonic acid group, and the resins with high moisture diffusing properties are a perfluorosulfonic acid polymer or a styrene-ethylene copolymer.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
