A
papermaking shoe press belt is formed of a reinforcing
fiber base material and a
polyurethane layer integrated with each other. The reinforcing
fiber base material is embedded in the
polyurethane layer. The
papermaking shoe press belt includes, as the
polyurethane layer, a polyurethane layer obtainable by curing a composition composed in combination of a urethane
prepolymer and one or more curing agent. The urethane
prepolymer is obtainable by reacting a p-
phenylene diisocyanate compound with a long-chain
polyol. The at least one curing agent is selected from 4,4′-
methylene bis(2,6-diethyl-3-chloroaniline), 4,4′-
methylene bis(2-chloroaniline),
methylene bis(2-ethyl-6-
methylaniline), 4,4′-methylene bis(2-ethylbenzeneamine), methylene bis(2,3-
dichloroaniline), 4,4′-methylenedianiline, 3,5-dimethylthiotoluene-2,4-
diamine, 3,5-dimethylthiotoluene-2,6-
diamine, 3,5-diethyltoluene-2,4-
diamine, 3,5-diethyltoluene-2,6-diamine, polytetramethylene
oxide di-p-aminobenzoate, poly(tetramethylene / 3-methyl tetramethylene
ether)glycol bis(4-aminobenzoate), trimethylene bis(4-aminobenzoate) and isobutyl 4-chloro-3,5-diaminobenzoate.
