Abstract: A nanofiber sheet includes: a substrate layer; and a nanofiber layer located on one surface side of the substrate layer and containing nanofibers of a polymer compound. A peripheral edge of the nanofiber layer has a thickness of from 0.1 to 10 ?m. The nanofiber layer includes a gradation region having a thickness that gradually increases inward from the peripheral edge. The distance W1 between the peripheral edge of the nanofiber layer and a maximum thickness portion where the thickness becomes the greatest in the gradation region is at least 3 mm. A nanofiber sheet manufacturing method involves depositing nanofibers onto a collecting unit by moving at least either a nozzle or the collecting unit, to thereby manufacture a predetermined nanofiber sheet including a gradation region.

Abstract: A sheet providing method provides a sheet that is used by being applied to a body surface of an individual user. The method involves determining a shape and dimensions of a sheet for each individual user U based on body surface information of the individual user; and forming the sheet by controlling a discharge nozzle that discharges a raw material of the sheet based on information regarding the shape and the dimensions of the sheet. Also, a sheet providing system having a sheet specification determining unit that determines a shape and dimensions of a sheet for each individual user based on body surface information of the individual user; and a sheet forming unit that forms the sheet by controlling a discharge nozzle that discharges a raw material of the sheet based on information regarding the shape and the dimensions of the sheet.

Abstract: A nanofiber sheet has a nanofiber layer composed of an accumulation of nanofibers. The nanofiber sheet has a plurality of membrane-like regions which extend between the nanofibers. The membrane-like regions of the nanofiber sheet each contain a water insoluble polymer and a pigment. The water insoluble polymer contained in the membrane-like regions of the nanofiber sheet is different from a constituent member of the nanofibers. The nanofiber sheet is preferred because it has a plurality of membrane-like aggregate regions, each an aggregate of a plurality of membrane-like regions which are adjacent to each other via a fiber and it has a non-membrane-like region between the membrane-like aggregate regions adjacent to each other.
