ABSTRACT:
A papermaking belt, used for a shoe pressing belt, a calender belt and a sheet transfer belt, is prevented from cracking and inhibited from growth of a crack, and comprises a reinforcing substrate (6) embedded in a thermosetting polyurethane layer (7) so that the said reinforcing substrate (6) and the said thermosetting polyurethane layer (7) are integrated with each other and the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface of the belt are formed by polyurethane layers, the polyurethane layer forming the outer peripheral surface is made of a composition containing a urethane prepolymer having isocyanate groups on ends and a hardener containing dimethylthiotoluenediamine.
