Abstract

A hydrophilic polymer material such as polyvinyl alcohol is formed into a porous film (301). A film (holding film) (303) made from a hydrophobic polymer material such as polyvinyl acetate is formed on the inner walls of a large number of pores (302) formed in the porous film (301). Lithium chloride (304) is held in these pores (302).
