  • Publication number: 20080230944
    Abstract: A dope is cast onto a drum. A casting film is cooled and solidified by the drum. The casting film is peeled as a film containing a solvent. The peeled film is guided to a tenter. In the tenter, in a first drying step, the film is dried by dry air from an air duct while being stretched in the width direction in a state that side edge portions of the film are held by pins. Thereafter, in a second drying step, the film is dried while tension is applied to the film in the width direction. A first ratio calculated by (a moving speed of the pins)/(a rotation speed of the drum), a second ratio calculated by L2/L1, and a third ratio calculated by L3/L2 satisfy 0.94?(the first ratio)/{(the second ratio)·(the third ratio)}?0.97.
