Latent heat storage material, cold storage tool, distribution packing container, and cold storage tool for food

Abstract

Provided is a latent heat storage material capable of keeping an object to be refrigerated, such as frozen food or ice cream, cold at a temperature of −20° C. or lower for a long period of time, and of reducing power consumption required at a time of solidification. The latent heat storage material contains 5 to 21 parts by weight of ammonium chloride, 2 to 13 parts by weight of potassium chloride, 5 to 23 parts by weight of urea, and 43 to 88 parts by weight of water. The total of the ammonium chloride, the potassium chloride, the urea, and the water is 100 parts by weight, and the latent heat storage material has a main melting point in a range from −20° C. to −23° C.
