## Abstract

A release liner which makes it difficult for an adhesive layer to impair slidability and makes it easy to exhibit an adhesive force suitably, a method of producing a release liner, an adhesive sheet, and a method of producing an adhesive sheet. A release liner has a surface provided with a ridge portion extending linearly, and on the surface, a plurality of recesses having different depths are randomly formed in a surface direction and are continuously connected.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1-6. (canceled)

### Claim 7

A release liner comprising: a surface provided with a ridge portion extending linearly,
wherein, on the surface, a plurality of recesses having different depths are randomly formed in a surface direction and are continuously connected.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The release liner according to claim 7, wherein the plurality of recesses having different depths are randomly formed and are connected even at an edge of a hem of the ridge portion.

### Claim 9

A method of producing a release liner, comprising: a pressing step of pressing a surface of a liner material with a roller,
wherein the roller presses the liner material on an outer peripheral surface of the roller in which a groove extending linearly is provided and a plurality of protrusions having different heights are randomly formed in a surface direction and are continuously connected.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The method of producing a release liner according to claim 9, wherein the roller presses the liner material on the outer peripheral surface on which the plurality of protrusions having different heights are randomly formed and are connected even at an edge of an opening of the groove.

### Claim 11 (depends on 7)

An adhesive sheet comprising the release liner according to claim 7, an adhesive layer disposed on the surface of the release liner, and a base material layer in this order in a stacking direction.

### Claim 12 (depends on 7)

A method of producing an adhesive sheet comprising disposing an adhesive layer on the surface of the release liner according to claim 7 and stacking the release liner, the adhesive layer, and a base material layer in this order.
