Wearing down of a doctor blade by a filler contained in a coating solution is prevented. The doctor blade is for scraping off the coating solution, containing the filler, from a circumferential surface of a coating roller, the coating roller being for applying the coating solution to a battery member being conveyed. A surface of the doctor blade is made from an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.

Doctor blade, coating device, and method for producing laminated separator

Provided is a method for reproducibly and efficiently producing a polyolefin porous film having a porous structure suitable for a separator for a battery without requiring a special apparatus. The method according to the present invention is a method for producing a polyolefin porous film, the method including conveying a raw material polyolefin sheet having pores into a furnace of a tenter type stretching machine, and tenter-stretching the sheet in a plurality of stretching regions in the furnace to produce a polyolefin porous film, wherein the plurality of stretching regions include at least two stretching regions having different film widening speeds, and the temperature of a stretching region having a high film widening speed is lower than that of a stretching region having a low film widening speed in the at least two stretching regions, and a stretching region having the highest film widening speed is situated in the front stage with respect to a stretching region having the lowest film widening speed.
