1. A polymer film having an average film thickness T 0 along a straight line D passing through a center of gravity of a two-dimensional projection such that an area of the polymer film is maximized, satisfies equation (a), an average value L of distances 1 from the center of gravity to edges in straight lines D passing through a center of gravity satisfies equation (b), a Young's modulus E satisfies equation (c), and a thickness deviation A defined by equation (d) satisfies equation (e):
10 nm≤ T 0 ≤1000 nm  (a)

0.1 μm≤ L≤ 500 μm  (b)

0.01 GPa≤ E≤ 4.3 GPa  (c)

Δ=1− T 1 /T 2   (d)

0.346 E× 10 −9 −1.499<Δ<−0.073 E× 10 −9 +0.316  (e)

where T 1 and T 2 represent, in the straight lines D passing through the center of gravity of the two-dimensional projection such that the area of the polymer film is maximized,
T 1 : an average film thickness of a region from ½ to 1 of the distance 1 from the center of gravity to the edge, and
T 2 : an average film thickness of a region from the center of gravity to ¼, and
the straight line D passing through the center of gravity of the two-dimensional projection means D 1 to D 4 :
(1) a minor axis passing through the center of gravity: D 1 ,
(2) a major axis passing through the center of gravity: D 2 ,
(3) straight lines passing through the center of gravity and bisecting a wide angle and a narrow angle formed by the minor axis and the major axis respectively: D 3 , D 4 ,
when the minor axis and the major axis are the same or there are a plurality, two lines having the smallest difference between the wide angle and the narrow angle formed by the minor axis and the major axis are selected, and average film thickness means an average value calculated using the four straight lines D 1 to D 4 ;
wherein a polymer constituting the polymer film is a homopolymer selected from the group consisting of a polyester-based resin, a polyether-based resin, a polymethacrylate-based resin, a polysaccharide and a polysaccharide ester, and/or a copolymer containing at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of a polyester-based resin, a polyether-based resin, a polymethacrylate-based resin, a polysaccharide and a polysaccharide ester.

2. The polymer film according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer film has at least one shape selected from the group consisting of a circle, an ellipse, an approximately circular shape, an approximately elliptical shape, an approximately polygonal shape and a ribbon shape.

3. A dispersion liquid in which the polymer film according to claim 1 is dispersed in a solution.

4. A polymer film agglomerate comprising the polymer film according to claim 1 .

5. A dispersion liquid in which the polymer film according to claim 2 is dispersed in a solution.

6. A polymer film agglomerate using comprising the polymer film according to claim 2 .
