Abstract
Disclosed is a method of producing a microporous polymer membrane, comprising: providing a polymer material; melting the polymer material; forming a precursor film by cooling and crystallizing the molten polymer material using an air knife; extending the precursor film; annealing the extended precursor film, primary stretching the annealed precursor film; forming a preliminary membrane by subjecting the primary stretched film to secondary stretching at a high temperature, and forming a microporous polymer membrane by heat setting the preliminary membrane. A microporous polymer membrane produced by the method is also provided.
