Abstract

A polytetrafluoroethylene porous film obtainable by applying an aqueous dispersion of emulsion polymerized polytetrafluoroethylene particles having an average minor particle size of 1 to 500 nm and an average aspect ratio of at least 10 on a substrate, drying the applied dispersion and optionally sintering the dried polytetrafluoroethylene particles on the substrate to obtain the polytetrafluoroethylene porous film, which has a uniform thin thickness.
