Polarizing coating of the present invention is the polyethenol series monadic stretching membrane that makes dichromatism pigment absorption orientation, and its manufacture method is divided from big aspect 2 kinds.The 1st kind of method is in air or inert gas, the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mesentery is carried out uniaxial tension after, carry out solution-treated according to the order that swelling is handled, dyeing is handled, boric acid is handled and washing is handled, carry out dry method at last.The 2nd kind of method is in aqueous solution, the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mesentery that does not stretch is carried out solution-treated according to the order that swelling is handled, dyeing is handled, boric acid is handled and washing is handled, in the operation before boric acid treatment process and/or boric acid treatment process, carry out the wet type uniaxial tension, carry out dry method at last again.
In any one method, uniaxial tension can carry out in 1 operation, also can carry out in 2 or above operation, preferably carries out in a plurality of operations.Drawing process can adopt known method, for example, stretches the hot-rolling pulling method of putting down in writing as No. 2731813 communiques of patent, stenter pulling method etc. by producing between 2 niprolls that make transport membrane between the roller that difference stretches.In addition, the order of operation as described above in proper order, has no particular limits for the quantity of handling bath and treatment conditions etc. basically, thereby without limits.
In addition, can certainly freely insert the operation that does not have record in the above-mentioned operation for other purposes.Example as such operation, after can being set forth in boric acid and handling, the dip treating (iodide processing) of being undertaken by not borated iodide aqueous solution or contain dip treating (zinc processing) operation that the aqueous solution of zinc chloride etc. carries out etc. by boronic acid containing not.
The swelling operation for the foreign matter that removes the striping surface, remove plastifier in the striping, provide the easy dyeing in the subsequent handling, the plasticized of film etc. to carry out.Be set in treatment conditions in the scope that can reach these purposes and in the scope of defectives such as the excessive dissolution that does not cause basilar memebrane, devitrification.When making the film swelling that in gas, stretches in advance, film is flooded in for example 20 ℃~70 ℃, preferred 30~60 ℃ aqueous solution.The dip time of film is 30 seconds~300 seconds, more preferably about 60~240 seconds.To from initial just not the former anti-film of stretching carry out under the situation of swelling, film is flooded in for example 10 ℃~50 ℃, preferred 20~40 ℃ aqueous solution.The dip time of film is 30 seconds~300 seconds, more preferably about 60~240 seconds.
In the swelling treatment process, on film, produce problems such as wrinkle Zhe owing to be easy to generate the swelling of film broad ways, the preferred wrinkle Zhe that uses known expanding apparatus such as stenter, double-screw bolt roller (spiral roll), crowned roll (crown roll), cloth guider (cross guider), roller (bend bar), stenter cloth gripper to eliminate film on one side, on one side transport membrane.In order to reach in bath the purpose of transport membrane stably, utilize the current of the swelling of spray control under water in bathing, perhaps coupling EPC device (marginal position control device: detect the end of film and prevent the device that film crawls) etc. is of great use.In this operation,,, for example, preferably take the means such as speed of the conveying roller of control and treatment groove front and back for the film of eliminating throughput direction speeds to hang down because film also enlarges along the direction swelling of film traveling.In addition, employed swelling is handled and is bathed, except pure water, can also use the aqueous solution of the boric acid (it is described that the spy opens flat 10-153709 communique) that adds 0.01 weight %~10 weight % scopes, chloride (it is described that the spy opens flat 06-281816 communique), mineral acid, inorganic salts, water-miscible organic solvent, alcohols etc.
Utilize dyeing process that the dichromatism pigment carries out the dichromatism pigment adsorbs orientation etc. on film purpose to be carried out in order to reach.Be set in treatment conditions in the scope that can reach these purposes and in the scope that does not cause defectives such as basilar memebrane excessive dissolution, devitrification.When using iodine as the dichromatism pigment, for example, under 10 ℃~45 ℃, preferred 20 ℃~35 ℃ temperature, and in weight ratio, under the concentration of iodine/KI/ water=0.003~0.2/0.1~10/100, carry out 30 seconds~600 seconds, be preferably 60~300 seconds dip treating.Can use other iodide, for example zinc iodide etc. replaces potassium iodide.In addition, other iodide and potassium iodide can also be used simultaneously.In addition, can also with compound such as the coexistences such as boric acid, zinc chloride, cobalt chloride beyond the iodide.When adding boric acid, containing on the iodine this point, be different from following boric acid and handle.With respect to the water of 100 weight portions,, just can be regarded as staining trough as long as contain 0.003 weight portion or above iodine.
When using water-soluble dichroic dye as the dichromatism pigment, for example, under 20 ℃~80 ℃, preferred 30 ℃~70 ℃ temperature, and in weight ratio, under the concentration of dichroic dye/water=0.001~0.1/100, carry out 30 seconds~600 seconds, be preferably 60 seconds~300 seconds dip treating.Employed dichroic dye aqueous solution can also contain dyeing assistant etc., for example, can contain inorganic salts, surfactants etc. such as sodium sulphate.Dichroic dye can be used separately, also two kinds or above dichroic dye can be used simultaneously.
As mentioned above, can also be in staining trough stretched film.The method that stretching utilizes the niproll make before and after the staining trough to have difference etc. is carried out.In addition, also can with the swelling operation similarly in dye bath and/or bathe the place, gateway stenter, double-screw bolt roller, crowned roll, cloth guider, roller etc. are set.
It is by containing with respect to 100 weight parts waters in the aqueous solution of 1~10 weight portion boric acid of having an appointment, the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mesentery with the dichromatism pigment dyeing being flooded implement that boric acid is handled.When the dichromatism pigment is iodine, preferably contain the iodide of 1~30 weight portion of having an appointment.
As iodide, can enumerate potassium iodide, zinc iodide etc.In addition, can also with compound such as the coexistences such as zinc chloride, cobalt chloride, zirconium chloride, sodium thiosulfate, potassium sulfite, sodium sulphate beyond the iodide.
It is in order to implement by the purpose of crosslinked and water-fast change or tone adjusting (prevent with blue cast etc.) etc. that this boric acid is handled.With under by the crosslinked and water-fast situation that turns to purpose, as required, except boric acid, perhaps can be with boric acid, use borax, glyoxal, crosslinking chemical such as glutaraldehyde.
In addition, also call titles such as water-fastization processing, crosslinking Treatment, immobilization processing sometimes handling with the water-fast boric acid that turns to purpose.In addition, also the boric acid that is adjusted to purpose with tone is handled titles such as being called complementary color is handled, the processing of dyeing again sometimes.
This boric acid is handled, and according to the not special difference of its purpose, is usually undertaken by the concentration that suitably changes boric acid and other additives, the temperature that processing is bathed.
Under the situation of former anti-film being carried out swelling, dyeing, boric acid processing, handling when boric acid is with by crosslinked and water-fast when turning to purpose, use is handled bath with respect to the boric acid that 100 weight parts waters contain about 3~10 weight portion boric acid, about 1~20 weight portion iodide, usually, under 50 ℃~70 ℃, preferred 55 ℃~65 ℃ temperature, carry out.Dip time was generally about 30~600 seconds, was preferably 60~420 seconds, more preferably 90~300 seconds.
In addition, the film that stretches is in advance dyeed, when boric acid is handled, boric acid is handled the temperature of bathing and is generally 50~85 ℃, is preferably 55 ℃~80 ℃.
Can also after handling, carry out being adjusted to the boric acid processing of purpose with tone with the water-fast boric acid that turns to purpose.For example, when dichroic dye is iodine,, use the boric acid processing bath that contains the boric acid of 1~5 weight portion of having an appointment, about 3~30 weight portion iodide with respect to 100 weight parts waters, generally under 10 ℃~45 ℃ temperature, carry out for this purpose.Dip time was generally about 3~300 seconds, was preferably 10~240 seconds.
Compare with handling with the water-fast boric acid that turns to purpose, it generally is to carry out under lower boric acid concentration, higher iodide concentration and lower temperature that the boric acid that is adjusted to purpose with tone is handled.
These boric acid are handled and also can be carried out in a plurality of operations, carry out in 2~5 operations mostly usually.At this moment, the aqueous solution of employed each boric acid treatment trough is formed, temperature can be identical with above-mentioned scope, also can be different.Above-mentioned handle and handle with the water-fast boric acid that turns to purpose with the boric acid that form and aspect are adjusted to purpose also can in a plurality of operations, carry out respectively.
In the boric acid treatment process, also can similarly carry out the stretching of film with dyeing process.Final accumulation draw ratio is approximately 4.5~7.0 times, is preferably 5.0~6.5 times.
After boric acid is handled, wash processing.For example, wash processing: will be adjusted to purpose with water-fastization and/or tone and carry out polyethenol series film immersion that boric acid handles in water, and, perhaps flood simultaneously and spray with the form spray water of spray by following.Water temperature in washing is handled is generally about 2~40 ℃, and dip time can be 2-120 about second.After the washing, in drying oven, under about 40~100 ℃ temperature, carry out after about 60~600 seconds washing dry.
In the present invention, in the operation after stretch processing, the stretching that makes film is along draw direction lax 1~5%.
Under the situation that dyeing stretches in the treatment process, from thereafter boric acid treatment process begin up at least one operation of washing treatment process, making stretch lax.Finish under the situation of stretching in the operation before the dyeing treatment process, what stretch at least one operation of the later operation that comprises dyeing treatment process and boric acid treatment process is lax.
When the boric acid treatment process is made up of a plurality of boric acid treatment process, the above-mentioned film that in initial boric acid treatment process, stretches, and the subsequent boron acid treatment operation from the boric acid treatment process of carrying out stretch processing begin up at least one operation of washing step, to stretch lax.
After carrying out the boric acid processing, carry out under the situation of above-mentioned iodide processing or zinc processing, what can also stretch in these operations is lax.
Specifically, make polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mesentery lax contraction in handling bath of stretching.Relaxation rate (being shrinkage factor) preferably 1~5%.If relaxation rate is lower than 1%, do not have and reduce the effect that white point produces, on the contrary,, on the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) mesentery, produce wrinkle Zhe if surpass 5%, probably can not be used for optical applications.Lax can carrying out in 1 operation also can carry out in a plurality of operations.Under the situation of in a plurality of operations, carrying out, with before lax and the total relaxation rate after lax be set at 1~5%.
