A kind of drying means of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film
One, technical field
The present invention relates to the drying means of a kind of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) optical thin film, specifically a kind of raw for polaroidThe drying means of the polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film producing.
Two, background technology
Polaroid can make natural daylight generation polarization phenomena, and it and liquid crystal are combined, and becomes the assembly with image displaying function,It is the key component in liquid crystal display. Polaroid is to stretch, dye and and three cellulose acetate membrane by polyvinyl alcohol optical thin filmLaminating forms, and three cellulose acetate membrane mainly plays moistureproof damp proof protective effect, wherein dyed polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film toolStandby polarizing properties, the quality of this layer film has determined the overall performance of polaroid, liquid crystal display.
At present, the main production method of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film is by casting film-forming soluble in water polyvinyl alcohol, with polyethylene, poly-The conventional plastic maskings such as propylene are different, need to be dried to process to remove moisture after polyvinyl alcohol casting film-forming. Therefore, makeThe production line of water solution casting method production polyvinyl alcohol film must be equipped with the curtain coating roller of larger diameter band heating function, to protectCard film, rotating around roller while within one week, peeling off, can have time enough moulding, otherwise film will be glue-like because being dried,Cannot peel off from roller surface.
In general, polyvinyl alcohol water solution is moisture approximately 70%, in order to ensure that film peels off, need to be down to below 30% moisture,By the dry 40% left and right moisture of removing. In this process, film inner surface is pressed close to the one-sided heat intensity of roller and is greater than outer surface,Heated time is longer, and in dry dehydration process, longitudinal contraction and the cross-direction shrinkage from film edge two side direction centers occurs. ThisThe film of sample is spreading out while using, very easily warpage of its marginal portion, and spreading is poor, and due to the stress distribution from middle mind-set both sides,There is comparatively significantly phasic difference.
Film warpage can cause and stretch inhomogeneously, although can alleviate or eliminate by the method for both sides cutting edge, the while has also reducedProduct size, reduces output, when serious, can cause product quality defective. When phasic difference is larger, can cause the interference effect of lightShould, when particularly large scale liquid crystal shows, reduce video picture quality in liquid crystal display.
Three, summary of the invention
The present invention aims to provide a kind of drying means of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film, produces to improve traditional polyvinyl alcohol optical thin filmThe shortcoming such as easy warpage, phasic difference fluctuation existing in technique
Technical solution problem of the present invention, adopts following technical scheme:
The drying means of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film of the present invention, its feature is:
Polyvinyl alcohol water solution is peeled off rear formation polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film from curtain coating roller drying and moulding, after curtain coating roller, increasesAdd one group of drying unit being formed by one or several rollers, make described polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film enter drying unit and doDry; By the adjusting to each roller diameter, temperature, speed in drying unit, in balanced polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film, outside is heatedIntensity, alleviate or eliminate before one side be heated and the upper problem having big difference of warpage, width brought.
The drying means of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film of the present invention, its feature is also:
The moisture content of polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film obtaining after curtain coating roller drying and moulding is peeled off is 10~50% (preferably15~30%), the moisture content of the dried polyvinyl alcohol optical thin film in drying unit is 1~10%.
The quantity that forms the roller of drying unit is 1~20, preferably 7~15.
The roller that forms drying unit can be metal material, can be also other material, has passed into heating and be situated between in described rollerMatter, as recirculated water, heat kerosene, electrical heating etc.
Above-mentioned roller diameter scope is 50mm~1000mm, preferably 150mm~600mm; Each roller diameter can be identical, alsoCan be the combination of different-diameter, too small being unfavorable for of diameter heats, and excessive processing cost is higher, expensive. Preferably,Each roller is numbered successively with the distance of the described curtain coating roller of distance, and it is straight that the diameter of odd-numbered roller is greater than even-numbered rollerBetter effects if when footpath.
Above-mentioned roller width is determined according to thin-film width.
The heating-up temperature scope that forms each roller of drying unit is 20~100 DEG C, preferably 40~90 DEG C; Each roller temperature can phaseWith, can be also the combination of different temperatures. Preferably, form each roller of drying unit with the distance of the described curtain coating roller of distanceBe numbered better effects if when the temperature of odd-numbered roller is greater than even-numbered roller temperature.
The rotating speed that forms each roller of drying unit can be adjusted, and rotating speed can be identical, can be also the combination of friction speed. ExcellentChoosing, taking described curtain coating roller rotating speed as benchmark, the rotating speed of each roller increases progressively according to 0.8~1.0 ratio.
Compared with the prior art, beneficial effect of the present invention is embodied in:
1, the present invention is dried film by the drying unit being made up of some rollers is set after curtain coating roller, the film makingBe heated evenly, the defects such as warpage and phasic difference fluctuation are better controlled, and membrane quality has larger lifting;
2, in the present invention, adopt the roller of multiple small diameters to be combined into drying unit, roller manufacture difficulty is little, economically feasible;
3,, in the present invention, can, by changing the parameters such as roller diameter, temperature, speed, realize the homogeneous heating of outside in film;
