Abstract

A method for preparing a biaxially stretched polyether ether ketone (PEEK) film having excellent precision in thickness, insulating properties and heat shrinkage from an amorphous PEEK film which includes a first stretching step of roll-stretching the amorphous PEEK film in a temperature range of from 50.degree. C. to (Tg-10).degree. C. in a stretching ratio of from 150% to 350% in the progress direction of the film while a necking phenomenon is caused in the film; a second stretching step of stretching the film in the temperature range of from Tg to 170.degree. C. in a direction at right angles to the stretching direction in the first stretching step in a stretching ratio of from 150% to 350%; and a heat set step of thermally setting the stretched film at two stages in the temperature range of 210.degree.-330.degree. C. and the temperature range of 180.degree.-210.degree. C.
