- the porous membrane according to one embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: A porous membrane containing polytetrafluoroethylene as a main component,
- the porous membrane has an endothermic peak in the range of 340° C. to 350° C. in a melting curve in a first run obtained by differential scanning calorimetry at a heating rate of 10° C./min, and has an endothermic peak in the range of 320° C. to 330° C.

- the porous membrane When the porous membrane is used as a pleated cartridge filter, it is folded into pleats and then heated to be heat-fixed, so the porous membrane is required to have thermal stability. This is because stretched polytetrafluoroethylene is inherently easy to shrink, and the properties (pore size and permeability) of the porous membrane are easily changed due to the shrinkage of polytetrafluoroethylene. The stretched polytetrafluoroethylene is heated in the sintering process, so that the polytetrafluoroethylene melts, and the internal stress caused by stretching is released. After that, it is cooled, and the polytetrafluoroethylene is recrystallized to form a porous membrane.
- the porous membrane containing such polytetrafluoroethylene as the main component may not have sufficient thermal stability because the melting point peak (endothermic peak) in the melting curve of the 2nd Run obtained by differential scanning calorimetry with a heating rate of 10°C/min is around 345°C.
- a laminate comprising one or more porous membranes and a support membrane located on one or both sides of at least one of the porous membranes may also have insufficient thermal stability.
