The filter is formed, for example, by impregnating a porous substrate with a polymer solution mixed with an adsorbent, supplying a coagulating solvent for the polymer to the impregnating liquid by spraying or the like, and solidifying the impregnating liquid. It can be carried out. That is, a polymer solution is dissolved in a solvent and an adsorbent is added to form a polymer solution mixed with an adsorbent, and the solution is impregnated into a porous base material, or the porous base material is immersed in the solution to form pores in the porous base material. After the solution is impregnated, the impregnating solution contains a solvent and is in an undried state, and the impregnating solution is sprayed with a coagulating solvent that is compatible with the solvent and does not dissolve the polymer. Can be formed by a method of solidifying or the like. In this case, an additive such as a solid plasticizer that is soluble in both the solvent for the polymer and the solvent for coagulation may be blended.

In the above, the step of spraying the coagulating solvent is preferably performed while the solvent sufficiently remains in the impregnating liquid from the viewpoint of controllability of the fibrous structure of the polymer. If the amount of the solvent in the impregnating liquid is small, the polymer may be aggregated and the degree of exposure of the adsorbent may be poor. A preferable fibrous structure of the polymer that connects and holds the adsorbent to the porous substrate is a porous structure in which a large number of fine fibers are three-dimensionally developed in a state where a large number of fine nodules are formed.

The coagulating solvent sprayed on the impregnating liquid of the porous substrate is absorbed by contact with the impregnating liquid and diffused and mixed into the solvent in the impregnating liquid, causing the polymer to coagulate by losing the solvent dissolving power of the solvent. This coagulation phenomenon progresses from the surface of the impregnating liquid to the inside together with the diffusion and penetration of the coagulating solvent into the impregnating liquid. On the other hand, the solvent mixed with the coagulating solvent, the penetration of which is shielded by the coagulation of the polymer, accumulates in the gaps between the coagulated polymers and becomes spherical by the action of intermolecular cohesion.
