  • Publication number: 20160099452
    Abstract: Disclosed is a laminated porous film which has both gas permeability and heat resistance and can exhibit excellent smoothness and excellent pin extraction properties when used as a separator for a battery. The laminated porous film is characterized by having a heat-resistant layer laminated on at least one surface of a polyolefin resin porous film, wherein the heat-resistant layer comprises a filler and a resin binder, and wherein the surface of the heat-resistant layer has a static friction coefficient of 0.45 or less, a gas permeability degree of 2000 sec/100 ml or less and a tensile elastic modulus of 400 to 1000 MPa when the film is stretched in the lengthwise direction at a stretching rate of 3%.

  • Patent number: 9115277
    Abstract: The purpose is to provide a porous polyolefin resin film which has high gas permeability and a high porosity, and which can exhibit excellent properties including break down properties when used as a separator for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery. The present invention relates to a porous polyolefin resin film which is produced from a resin composition (a) containing a polyolefin resin as the main component and additionally containing organic-inorganic hybrid particles (f).

  • Patent number: 8945453
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing a PTFE fiber that makes it possible, unlike the emulsion spinning process, to obtain a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fiber, particularly a long PTFE fiber, without using a matrix material, is more productive than conventional production methods such as a slit yarn process, and is capable of enhancing mechanical properties and the degree of freedom in diameter of the obtained fiber. The method for producing the PTFE fiber of the present invention includes the step of reducing a diameter of a string-shape PTFE-containing solid material (a first solid material) by drawing the first solid material at a temperature equal to or higher than a melting point of PTFE. The first solid material can be obtained from a PTFE-containing solid material (a second solid material) containing water and a surfactant, by reducing an amount of the water contained in the second solid material.

  • Publication number: 20130143095
    Abstract: A laminated porous film, where a coating layer (layer II) containing a filler (a), a resin binder (b) and an adhesive agent (c) is laminated on at least one surface of a polyolefin resin porous film (layer I), is provided. The adhesion between the polyolefin resin porous film that serves as a base film and the coating layer is high. The laminated porous film has heat resistance and exhibits excellent properties when used as a separator for a non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery.
