Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A fiber for artificial hair, the fiber containing 50 parts by mass or more and 95 parts by mass or less of a vinyl chloride-based resin and 5 parts by mass or more and 50 parts by mass or less of a vinyl-based copolymer resin, in which the vinyl-based copolymer resin contains 60% by mass or more and less than 70% by mass of a styrene-based monomer unit and more than 30% by mass and 40% by mass or less of an acrylonitrile-based monomer unit on the basis of the entire vinyl-based copolymer resin.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A fiber for artificial hair, the fiber comprising 55 parts by mass or more and 90 parts by mass or less of a vinyl chloride-based resin and 10 parts by mass or more and 45 parts by mass or less of a vinyl-based copolymer resin with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total of the vinyl chloride-based resin and the vinyl-based copolymer resin, wherein the vinyl-based copolymer resin contains 62% by mass or more and 68% by mass or less of a styrene-based monomer unit and 32% by mass or more and 38% by mass or less of an acrylonitrile-based monomer unit on the basis of the entire vinyl-based copolymer resin. 2. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , wherein the styrene-based monomer unit includes a styrene monomer unit. 3. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , wherein a viscosity-average polymerization degree of the vinyl chloride-based resin is 450 or more and 1700 or less. 4. A hair accessory product comprising the fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 . 5. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 55 parts by mass or more and 75 parts by mass or less of the vinyl chloride-based resin. 6. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 60 parts by mass or more and 70 parts by mass or less of the vinyl chloride-based resin. 7. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 55 parts by mass or more and 80 parts by mass or less of the vinyl chloride-based resin. 8. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 20 parts by mass or more and 45 parts by mass or less of the vinyl-based copolymer resin. 9. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 35 parts by mass or more and 45 parts by mass or less of the vinyl-based copolymer resin. 10. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , comprising 25 parts by mass or more and 40 parts by mass or less of the vinyl-based copolymer resin. 11. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , wherein the vinyl-based copolymer resin contains more than 32% by mass and 35% by mass or less of the acrylonitrile-based monomer unit. 12. The fiber for artificial hair according to claim 1 , wherein the acrylonitrile-based monomer unit includes an acrylonitrile monomer unit.
