Abstract
Provided is a black porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane including a porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane dyed black. A whiteness of a principal face of the black porous polytetrafluoroethylene membrane as measured according to JIS L 1015 (Hunter method) is 18.0 to 23.0%, and the whiteness of the principal face falls within a range of 18.0 and 25.0% after heating at 350° C. for 1 minute. This black porous PTFE membrane is suitable as a gas-permeable membrane that blocks entry of water and/or dust and that allows permeation of gases; specifically, the black porous PTFE membrane is suitable, for example, as a waterproof sound-transmitting membrane, a waterproof gas-permeable membrane, and a dustproof gas-permeable membrane.
