Abstract

A filtering medium includes first and second porous membranes mainly composed of fluororesin, and a plurality of air permeable supports to support the first and second membranes. The second membrane is disposed downstream of the first membrane. When air containing polyalphaolefin particles with a count median diameter of 0.25 μm is continuously passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec and pressure loss is increased by 250 Pa, the first membrane has a dust retention amount larger than the second membrane. The filtering medium has a pressure loss of less than 200 Pa when air is passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec. A collecting efficiency of NaCl particles with a particle diameter of 0.3 μm is 99.97% or more when air containing the NaCl particles is passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec. The dust retention amount is 25 g/m2 or more.
