- the material of LCP is a copolymer of parahydroxybenzoic acid and 4,6-hydroxynaphthoic acid.
- LCP powder was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the LCP raw material was changed as described above.
- the average fiber diameter measured for 100 LCP fibers contained in the LCP powder was 0.9 ⁇ m.

- a porous body was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except for the above points.
- Example 7 In Example 7, uniaxially oriented LCP pellets (cylindrical pellets with a diameter of 3 to 4 mm, melting point: 430° C.) were prepared as the LCP raw material.
- the material of LCP is a copolymer of parahydroxybenzoic acid, terephthalic acid and dihydroxyphenyl.
- LCP powder was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the LCP raw material was changed as described above. The average fiber diameter measured for 100 LCP fibers contained in the LCP powder was 1.1 ⁇ m.
- the LCP powder obtained above and acrylic resin powder (average particle size: 2 ⁇ m) as a resin binder were weighed so that the volume ratio was 1:1, and dispersed in a 50% by mass ethanol aqueous solution as a dispersion medium. It was made into a slurry form by Next, the slurry-like resin mixture was treated in the same manner as in Example 1 to form a resin mixture mat.
- the resin mixture mat obtained above was hot-pressed at 60°C and 0.6 MPa to produce a resin mixture film. Then, the resin mixture film was placed on a stainless steel vat and heated in the same hot-air inert oven as in Example 1. Specifically, heat treatment was performed at 380° C. for 60 minutes under a nitrogen stream. Thus, a porous body of Example 7 was obtained.
- Example 8 a porous body was obtained in the same manner as in Example 7, except that the LCP powder and the acrylic resin powder were weighed so that the volume ratio was 1:3.
- Reference Example 1 As Reference Example 1, a commercially available LCP meltblown nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 4 g/m 2 was prepared.
- FIGS. 3 to 8 are photographs (SEM images) of cross sections of porous bodies in Examples 1 to 3 and 7, Comparative Example 1, and Reference Example 1.
- the porous body of Comparative Example 1 contains many fibers with a small fiber diameter, and it can be seen that the fusion between the fibers is insufficient.
- the fibers are significantly thicker than those in Examples, and the shape of pores is simpler than those in Examples.
- a porous body is obtained by heating at a temperature higher than the heating temperature (over 280 ° C.) in the above example, a fiber with a large fiber diameter is heated up to 310 ° C., that is, a temperature 5 ° C. lower than the melting point of the LCP raw material. It was confirmed that the fibers were fused to each other, but the fibers were softened when the temperature exceeded 310°C, and it was confirmed that the porous structure could not be maintained.
- the tensile strength of the porous bodies according to each of Examples 1 to 8, Comparative Examples 1 and 2, and Reference Example 1 was measured using a dynamic viscoelasticity meter (RSA-G2, manufactured by TA-Instruments). Specifically, for the porous body, a test piece of 5 mm ⁇ 25 mm was used, stretched under the conditions of a gripping distance of 13 mm and a tensile speed of 0.6 mm / min, and the load value at the time of cutting was measured by the cross-sectional area excluding the void part. obtained by subtracting The results are shown in FIGS . The n number of each test piece is 3, and the values in Table 1 are their average values.
- the porous bodies according to Examples 1 to 8 have higher tensile strength than those of Comparative Examples 1 and 2.
- the average pore diameter is nearly ten times larger, and the properties as a porous body such as filtering properties are significantly inferior.
- porous bodies according to Examples 7 and 8 are extremely fine with an average pore diameter of 1.0 ⁇ m or less. Such a porous body with a fine average pore diameter is considered to be excellent in strength and filtration properties.
- Example 9 the same LCP powder as in Example 1 was used to form an LCP fiber mat through a coating process and a drying process.
- Example 2 the same LCP powder as in Example 1 was dispersed in butanediol as a dispersion medium to form a paste.
- a paste-like LCP powder was applied to the roughened surface of a 200 mm square, 12 ⁇ m thick electrolytic copper foil (FWJ-WS-12 manufactured by Furukawa Electric Co., Ltd.). was applied to Then, the electrolytic copper foil coated with the LCP powder paste is heated to 180° C. on a hot plate to vaporize the butanediol as the dispersion medium, and the LCP powder paste on the electrolytic copper foil is dried. let me Thus, a thin LCP fiber mat was formed on the electrolytic copper foil.
- the pasty LCP powder was further applied onto this thin LCP fiber mat.
- the applied pasty LCP powder was dried in the same manner as the previously applied pasty LCP powder was dried.
- an LCP fiber mat adjusted to have a basis weight of 15 g/m 2 was formed on the electrolytic copper foil.
- Example 2 Using the same hot air inert oven as in Example 1, the electrolytic copper foil on which the LCP fiber mat was formed was heated at 280°C for 60 minutes under a nitrogen stream. As a result, a copper foil composite was obtained in which a porous body having a thickness of about 70 ⁇ m was formed on a portion of one side of the copper foil.
- Example 10 PTFE (irregular shape, average particle size: 4.0 ⁇ m, melting point: 331° C.) was prepared as an additive.
- the PTFE and the same LCP powder as in Example 1 were dispersed in butanediol as a dispersion medium to form a paste.
- the mixing ratio of PTFE and LCP powder was 5:5 by volume.
- a copper foil composite in which a porous body having a thickness of about 50 ⁇ m was formed on a part of one side of the copper foil was obtained by the same manufacturing process as in Example 9 except for the above points.
- Example 11 boron nitride powder (scale-like, average particle size: 0.5 ⁇ m) was prepared as an additive.
- Boron nitride powder and the same LCP powder as in Example 1 were dispersed in butanediol as a dispersion medium to form a paste.
- the mixing ratio of the boron nitride powder and the LCP powder was 5:5 by volume.
- a copper foil composite in which a porous body having a thickness of about 50 ⁇ m was formed on a part of one side of the copper foil was obtained by the same manufacturing process as in Example 9 except for the above points.
- the porous body could be formed not on the entire surface of the copper foil but on a part of the copper foil. Moreover, even when the copper foil composites of Examples 9 to 11 were rolled into a roll, the porous body did not separate from the copper foil, nor did warping or waviness occur.
- Water repellency test A water repellency test was performed on Examples 9 and 10. Specifically, pure water or an ethanol aqueous solution of each concentration (50% by mass, 60% by mass, 70% by mass, and 80% by mass) was dropped on the portion where the porous body of each copper foil composite was formed, and adsorption I checked the presence or absence of
- Example 9 even when pure water was dropped, it did not adsorb to the porous body, but it was confirmed that it adsorbed to the porous body when 50% by mass ethanol aqueous solution was dropped. Similarly, adsorption was also confirmed in 60% by mass, 70% by mass and 80% by mass ethanol aqueous solutions.
- Example 10 even when pure water was dropped, it did not adsorb to the porous body, and it did not adsorb even in 50% by mass, 60% by mass, and 70% by mass ethanol aqueous solutions, but 80% by mass ethanol aqueous solution was not adsorbed. It was confirmed that when dripped, it was adsorbed on the porous body.
- Heat dissipation test A heat dissipation test was performed on Examples 9 and 11. Specifically, a copper plate was placed on a hot plate heated to 80° C., each copper foil composite of Examples 9 and 11 was placed thereon, and the surface temperature was measured by thermography.
- the surface temperature of the copper foil composite of Example 11 was 5°C higher than that of the copper foil composite of Example 9. From this test result, it can be seen that heat dissipation can be imparted by mixing LCP powder with boron nitride powder as an additive to form a porous body.
