Specific examples thereof include bis (p-ethylbenzylidene) sorbitol, bis (4-methylbenzylidene) sorbitol, bis (3,4-dimethylbenzylidene) sorbitol, bisbenzylidenesorbitol, and the like. The blending amount of the nucleating agent is preferably 100 ppm or more based on the amount of polypropylene from the viewpoint that crystallization proceeds rapidly and moldability is easy, although it depends on the desired crystallization conditions. From the viewpoint of preventing excessive bleeding due to the nucleating agent, it is preferably 10,000 ppm or less. A more preferable amount of the nucleating agent is 100 to 2,000 ppm with respect to polypropylene. In the production method of microporous membranes using ordinary plasticizers, when liquid paraffin or phthalate ester plasticizers are used, polyethylene tends to exhibit permeability, but polypropylene has smaller pores than polyethylene. The permeability tends to be inferior. As a means for eliminating the permeability of this polypropylene, a method of adjusting the pores to an appropriate size is effective, and the phase separation speed is adjusted by using a nucleating agent, so that an appropriate pore structure can be easily formed.
その他、ポリプロピレンとポリエチレンの分散助剤として、例えば、水添したスチレン-ブタジエン系エラストマーや、エチレンとプロピレンを共重合したエラストマー等も必要に応じて用いられる。これらの助剤の配合量は、特には限定されないが、ポリプロピレンとポリエチレンの合計量100質量部に対して、好ましくは1〜10質量部が使用される。 In addition, as a dispersion aid for polypropylene and polyethylene, for example, a hydrogenated styrene-butadiene elastomer, an elastomer copolymerized with ethylene and propylene, or the like is used as necessary.

キャピラリー内部の流体は、流体の平均自由工程がキャピラリーの孔径より大きいときはクヌーセンの流れに、小さい時はポアズイユの流れに従うことが知られている。そこで、微多孔膜の透気度測定における空気の流れがクヌーセンの流れに、また微多孔膜の透水度測定における水の流れがポアズイユの流れに従うと仮定する。
この場合、平均孔径D(μm)と曲路率T(無次元)は、空気の透過速度定数Rgas(m3/(m2・sec・Pa))、水の透過速度定数Rliq(m3/(m2・sec・Pa))、空気の分子速度ν(m/sec)、水の粘度η(Pa・sec)、標準圧力Ps(=101325Pa)、気孔率ε(%)、膜厚L(μm)から、次式を用いて求めることができる。

Therefore, it is assumed that the air flow in the measurement of the permeability of the microporous membrane follows the Knudsen flow, and the water flow in the measurement of the permeability of the microporous membrane follows the Poiseuille flow.
In this case, the average pore diameter D (μm) and the curvature T (dimensionless) are the air permeation rate constant R gas (m 3 / (m 2 · sec · Pa)) and the water permeation rate constant R liq (m 3 / (m 2 · sec · Pa)), air molecular velocity ν (m / sec), water viscosity η (Pa · sec), standard pressure P s (= 101325 Pa), porosity ε (%), membrane From the thickness L (μm), it can be obtained using the following equation.
D = 2ν × (R liq / R gas ) × (16η / 3P s ) × 10 6
T = (D × (ε / 100) × ν / (3L × P s × R gas )) 1/2
Here, R gas is obtained from the air permeability (sec) using the following equation.
R gas = 0.0001 / (air permeability × (6.424 × 10 −4 ) × (0.01276 × 101325))
R liq is determined from the water permeability (cm 3 / (cm 2 · sec · Pa)) using the following equation.
R liq = water permeability / 100

A microporous membrane previously immersed in alcohol is set in a stainless steel permeation cell having a diameter of 41 mm, and after the alcohol in the membrane is washed with water, water is allowed to permeate at a differential pressure of about 50000 Pa, and 120 seconds have elapsed. The water permeation amount per unit time, unit pressure, and unit area was calculated from the water permeation amount (cm 3 ) at the time, and this was taken as the water permeability.
