2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a method for producing a sheet composed of a liquid crystal polymer, first, a liquid crystal polymer is formed into a long fiber shape, which is chopped and then crushed to prepare a rough pulp. A method of calendaring is known (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 60-23960).

However, in this method, it is necessary to prepare long fibers of the liquid crystal polymer in advance, so that the number of manufacturing steps is increased and, in addition, since the obtained sheet is in a state in which fine fibers are entangled at random, the transparent sheet is transparent. It has a low temper and is subject to limited applications when used as a filter. Further, since the connection and adhesion between the fibers are not good, the durability is low.

Further, it is also proposed that the thermoplastic liquid crystal polymer is pelletized and then pulverized to produce microfibrids of the liquid crystal polymer, which is used as a raw material for paper or the like (JP-A-63-35816). This method also requires many steps for producing the microfibrids, and the paper made from the microfibrids naturally has low air permeability and has the same drawbacks as described above.

Means for Solving the Problems The inventors of the present invention have conducted various studies on a method for producing a porous liquid crystal polymer sheet having good air permeability, and as a result, have found that a liquid crystal polymer substance having self-alignment property is used as a non-liquid crystal polymer.
