Abstract
A porous PTFE film having a thin thickness and good permeability is produced by coating an emulsion of polytetrafluoroethylene on a substrate surface, in particular, a porous polytetrafluoroethylene substrate which has not been heated at a melting point of unsintered polytetrafluoroethylene or higher, heating the coated substrate at a temperature not lower than a melting point of sintered polytetrafluoroethylene to semi-sinter polytetrafluoroethylene, optionally removing the semi-sintered polytetrafluoroethylene film from the substrate, and then stretching the semi-sintered film at least in one direction.
