ABSTRACT:
A heating element for use in heater poultices or disposable pocket heaters, which contains oxidizable metallic powders, one of the noble metallic catalysts such as platinum palladium, etc. or a mixture thereof, and a porous catalyst carrier such as active carbon, silica gel, etc. The catalyst carrier may be partially or wholly air-permeably water-proofed by water-repellent, and the surface of the oxidizable metallic powers may be coated with a fatty acid or metallic soap. The electrochemical oxidation reaction of the metallic powders to air is promoted and accelerated by the catalysts to make the metals produce heat energy.
