PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent leak of a hollow fiber membrane by solving the problem of adhesion curing of the hollow fiber membrane to a housing by a method wherein in a hollow fiber membrane module which is formed by fixing a plurality of hollow fiber membranes in the housing with a potting material, a restricting means for restricting integrally respective hollow fiber membranes is provided in the potting material. SOLUTION: In a hollow fiber membrane module 5A, a hollow fiber membrane sheet 6 comprising a hollow fiber membrane 1 is converged, a cylindrical hollow fiber bundle is formed, and the hollow fiber bundle is stored inside a cylindrical housing 2, and fixed by a potting material 3. In this case as a restricting means, a bandy restricting thread 4 wherein, for example, a plurality of restricting thread 4 a are disposed in an array is used, a part of its width direction is arranged inside the potting material 3, and the other part is arranged in the vicinity of the outside of the potting material 3. The hollow fiber membrane module 5A can be easily prepared thereby, the restricting means can be easily given in the inside or in the vicinity of the outside of the potting material 3, and the hollow fiber membrane 1 can be inhibited from bulging.
