摘要 |
It is an object of the present invention to provide a microporous polyolefin membrane, high in elongation and porosity, low in shrinkage, and capable of improving battery characteristics, safety and productivity, when used for battery separators. The microporous polyolefin membrane of the present invention comprises (A) an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyolefin having a weight-average molecular weight of 5x105 or more, or (B) a composition containing an ultra-high-molecular-weight polyolefin having a weight-average molecular weight of 5x105 or more, and having a porosity of 45 to 95%, elongation at break of 300% or more, bubble point exceeding 980 KPa and thermal shrinkage in the TD direction of 3% or less. The present invention also provides a method for producing the above microporous polyolefin membrane.
