Abstract: A cast raw sheet for a capacitor film, prepared by heating and melting a polypropylene resin and extruding the resin from a T-die, wherein the polypropylene resin has: a weight average molecular weight, determined by gel permeation chromatography, of 100,000 or more and 500,000 or less; and a molecular weight distribution Mw/Mn of 7 or more, the resin contains 97% by mass or more of an isotactic component that is an extraction residue obtained by sequential extraction, and the cast raw sheet contains a ?-form in a proportion of 1% or more and less than 20%, the proportion being determined by X-ray diffraction intensity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a biaxially oriented polypropylene film containing: a polypropylene resin as a main component thereof, having a weight average molecular weight of 100,000 or more and 500,000 or less, the weight average molecular weight being determined by gel permeation chromatography, wherein at least one surface of the biaxially oriented polypropylene film has a protrusion volume of 2.0×104 ?m3 or more and 3.0×104 ?m3 or less, the protrusion volume being determined in an area of 560 ?m×745 ?m using a super-depth surface profile measurement microscope by determining an average plane of the surface based on distances between plural points on the surface and an irradiation source of the super-depth surface profile measurement microscope and measuring a volume of protrusions projecting from the average plane.

Abstract: A foam production method including an irradiating step in which an active energy beam is irradiated onto a foamable composition containing an acid generating agent, which generates an acid, or a base generating agent, which generates a base, due to an action of an active energy beam, and containing a compound which has a decomposable/foamable functional group, which decomposes and eliminates one or more kinds of volatile substances with a low boiling point by reacting with the acid or base; and a subsequent foaming step in which the foamable composition is foamed under controlled pressure in a temperature region where the volatile substances with a low boiling point are decomposed and being eliminated.
