Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a micro or nano porous membrane composed of a stretched membrane of a fluororesin membrane, wherein the fluororesin membrane contains sintered bodies of a plurality of core-shell particles containing fluororesins, wherein the core-shell particles include cores and shells covering outer surfaces of the cores, wherein an average particle size of the core-shell particles before being sintered is greater than or equal to 100 nm and less than or equal to 1,000 nm, wherein a ratio of a volume of the shells to a volume of the cores in the core-shell particles before being sintered is greater than or equal to 2/98 and less than or equal to 50/50, wherein a fluororesin of the cores is a tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, a tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer or a combination thereof, and a fluororesin of the shells is polytetrafluoroethylene, and wherein a first heat of fusion of the fluororesins in the core-shell particles is less than or equal to 68 J/g.
