てしまうという問題があった。2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in seawater desalination and ultrapure water production in the semiconductor field, a single or plural membrane units including a separation membrane sandwiching a permeate flow path material and a supply liquid flow path material have been developed. A fluid separating element spirally wound around the collecting pipe is used. In general, the supply liquid flow path material of the fluid separation element is required to have a low flow resistance for uniformly supplying the supply liquid to the membrane surface, and a plastic net is used. However, since the feed liquid flow path material is in contact with the separation membrane, friction occurs between the feed liquid flow path material and the separation membrane in the above-mentioned winding step, and the feed liquid flow path material damages the separation membrane, and the As a result, there has been a problem that the fluid separation element cannot provide stable desalination performance.

Even the types of nets have some differences in shape, etc. between lots at the time of purchase, so that stability cannot be obtained and sufficient effects cannot be obtained. In addition, a change in the material reduces heat resistance, chemical resistance, and the like, which may cause a change in characteristics and performance of the fluid separation element.

However, in this method, when the thickness of the protective film is large, the resistance between the net and the film surface is large, so that it is difficult to surround the film, and wrinkles are generated in the separation film at the time of the surrounding. Therefore, it is necessary to form the protective film thinly.
There is a problem that it is also difficult to form the film uniformly.
