Background technology
Polarizer is the natural daylight making not have deflection polarity, produces polarization, is transformed into polar biased light, adds liquid crystal molecule torque characteristic, and reaching and control whether passing through of light, is a kind of key component affecting LCD liquid crystal display display effect.Polaroid divides by function and mainly comprises transmission-type polaroid, reflecting polarized wafer and half transmitting polaroid, and the core texture of the polaroid of these three kinds of different structures is all polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film.At present, the method preparing polaroid divides with extension process, has dry method tension and wet method stretching two large classes.
Dry-stretch process is, in the inert gas environment of certain humidity, temperature, PVA film is stretched to certain multiplying power, and then PVA film is dyeed, fixation, compound, the preparation technology such as drying.This technique can make the polaroid of larger wide cut and production efficiency is high, but prepared polaroid has tone evenness and poor durability, compound tension force instability, extends the shaggy drawback of not even film.
Wet method drawing process first carries out painted to PVA film, then carry out in the solution stretching, fixation, compound, the technique such as drying.This technique can improve stretching ratio, the polaroid of preparation uniform hue, good endurance, but the more difficult control of the stability extended in the solution, easy fracture, and the fabric width of PVA film is also restricted.In order to protect PVA film and prevent it from bouncing back, also need to paste cellulose triacetate (TAC) in the both sides of PVA film.
Adopt 3D printing technique prepare polaroid have one-pass film-forming, processing step simple, can large area film forming and polaroid physical stability is good, quality product rate advantages of higher.
