The invention relates to a foil which includes polymeric fibres, the polymeric fibres of which are interwelded, more particularly heat welded, solvent welded, cold welded, ultrasonically welded and/or at least partly interfused or positively or nonpositively interconnected at the crossing points between the pores at least, a process for production thereof, and also use thereof. 1. A porous foil ,comprising:interwelded polymeric fibres,wherein the polymeric fibres are heat welded, solvent welded, cold welded, ultrasonically welded, at least partly interfused or positively or nonpositively interconnected at crossing points between pores, or any combination thereof.2. The foil according to claim 1 , wherein the foil has a thickness of not more than 100 μm claim 1 , an open area of not less than 20% claim 1 , or both.3. The foil according to claim 1 ,whereinthe polymeric fibres comprise a thermoplastic polymer.4. The foil according to claim 3 ,whereinthe thermoplastic polymer is at least one selected from the group consisting of polyacrylonitrile, polyester, polyamide, polyimide, polyaramid, polyolefin, PTFE, PVDF, PES, and PUR.5. The foil according to claim 1 ,whereinthe polymeric fibres comprise a thermoplastic polymer, a nonthermoplastic polymer, a core-shell fibre, or a coextrudate.6. A process for producing the foil according to claim 1 , the process comprising:densifying a woven or loop-formingly knitted fabric comprising the polymeric fibres one or more times under an area or line pressure of not more than 500 N/mm and a temperature of not more than 50% below a melting temperature of a polymer with the lowest melting temperature,wherein the woven or loop-formingly knitted fabric comprises thermoplastic polymeric fibres.7. The process according to claim 6 ,whereinthe woven or loop-formingly knitted fabric is densified two or more times, andevery subsequent densification differs from a preceding densification in at least one of line pressure, nip size, and ...
