A film is provided with void spaces having a porous structure with less cracks and a high proportion of void space as well as having strength. The film with void spaces includes one kind or two or more kinds of structural units that form a structure with minute void spaces, wherein the structural units are chemically bonded through catalysis. For example, the abrasion resistance measured with BEMCOT® is in the range from 60% to 100%, and the folding endurance measured by the MIT test is 100 times or more. The film with void spaces can be produced by forming the precursor of the silicone porous body using sol containing pulverized products of a gelled silicon compound and then chemically bonding the pulverized products contained in the precursor of the silicone porous body. The chemical bond among the pulverized products is preferably a chemical crosslinking bond among the pulverized products.

A liquid repellent structure includes a surface to which liquid repellency is to be imparted, and a liquid repellent layer formed on the surface. In the structure: the liquid repellent layer contains a binder resin containing a fluorine-containing resin, and a filler dispersed in the binder resin; the filler contains a first filler having a BET specific surface area M of 100 m.sup.2/g to 400 m.sup.2/g; and the ratio M/F of the BET specific surface area M of the first filler to a mass F (mass %) of the fluorine-containing resin relative to the total mass of the liquid repellent layer is 4.1 to 20.0.
