Seat pad and seat pad manufacturing method
A seat pad with improved thermal comfort and improved vibration absorptivity and a seat pad manufacturing method for easily obtaining the seat pad are provided. In the seat pad ( 1 ), when a surface portion ( 2 ) up to 10 mm from a surface ( 1 f ) is cut out and the air permeability AR 1 of the surface portion ( 2 ) is measured in compliance with JIS K 6400, the air permeability AR 1 is more than 5 cc/cm 2 /sec and 25 cc/cm 2 /sec or less. The seat pad manufacturing method is a seat pad manufacturing method for obtaining the seat pad ( 1 ) by supplying a molding material into a molding die and performing foam molding. As the molding die, a molding die an inner surface of which is covered with polystyrene or polyethylene is used.

the seat pad further comprises a cushion pad,
a seat portion of the cushion pad is partitioned into an under-buttocks portion and an under-knees portion,
the air permeability of the surface portion of the under-buttocks portion on a seat side is within a range of more than 5 cc/cm 2 /sec and at or less than 25 cc/cm 2 /sec, when the air permeability is measured in compliance with JIS K 6400-4:2004, and
the air permeability of the surface portion of the under-knees portion is greater than the air permeability of the surface portion of the under-buttocks portion.
2. The seat pad according to claim 1 ,
