Description

  The present invention relates to a polarizing plate and a method for producing the same.

In recent years, liquid crystal display devices have been widely used as display devices for displaying characters, images, and the like. Such a liquid crystal display device usually includes a liquid crystal cell composed of two polarizing plates and a glass substrate, a transparent electrode, a color filter, a light distribution film, a liquid crystal, and the like disposed therebetween.
In general, a polarizing plate used in a liquid crystal display device is provided on one or both sides of a polarizing film (polarizer) obtained by adsorbing iodine or a dichroic dye on a stretch-oriented polyvinyl alcohol (hereinafter also referred to as PVA) -based sheet. A protective film such as a triacetyl cellulose (hereinafter also referred to as TAC) film is bonded through an adhesive layer.

As such a polarizing plate, in a polarizing plate in which a protective film is bonded to at least one surface of a polyvinyl alcohol polarizing film via a polyvinyl alcohol adhesive layer, the adhesive layer contains polyvinyl alcohol containing a water-soluble epoxy compound. There has been proposed a polarizing plate comprising an adhesive based on a ratio of a water-soluble epoxy compound and a polyvinyl alcohol resin in the adhesive of (5 to 50) / 100 (solid content weight ratio) ( Patent Document 1). This document also describes that the protective film is triacetyl cellulose having a saponified surface.
According to the technique described in Patent Document 1 using a water-based adhesive and a TAC-based protective film, the adhesive can be cured by evaporating the moisture of the adhesive through the TAC-based protective film having high moisture permeability. . Therefore, a polarizing plate can be obtained by a relatively simple manufacturing process. In addition, since the water-based adhesive and the TAC-based protective film have high adhesiveness, a polarizing plate having excellent adhesive strength can be obtained.
However, because of the high moisture permeability of the TAC protective film, there is a problem that the heat and moisture resistance is low. That is, there is a problem that deformation or the like may occur in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment such as when mounted on a vehicle, and it is difficult to maintain high polarization performance.

Therefore, a method using a norbornene-based resin film (cycloolefin-based resin film; hereinafter also referred to as a COP-based resin film) having low moisture permeability instead of the TAC-based protective film has been proposed.
For example, on one surface of a polarizing film made of a polyvinyl alcohol resin, through a first adhesive layer formed from an aqueous composition containing a polyester ionomer type urethane resin and a compound having a glycidyloxy group. A cycloolefin resin film is laminated, and a cellulose acetate film is laminated on the other surface through a second adhesive layer having an aqueous composition different from that of the first adhesive layer. A polarizing plate is proposed (Patent Document 2).
Moreover, in the manufacturing method of the polarizing plate which adhere | attaches and laminates a polarizer and the protective film of a polarizer, it contains at least aqueous emulsion, polyvinyl alcohol, and a polyisocyanate compound, and the viscosity (20 degreeC) by a B-type viscosity meter There has been proposed a method for producing a polarizing plate characterized in that the polarizer and the protective film are wet-laminated using a water-based urethane adhesive adjusted to 0.03 to 1 Pa · s ( Patent Document 3). This document also describes that the protective film is made of a thermoplastic saturated norbornene resin.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 09-258023 JP-A-2005-208456 JP 2004-37841 A

According to the technique described in Patent Document 2, the moisture of the water-based adhesive can be evaporated through a highly moisture-permeable cellulose acetate film, so that polarization can be performed in a relatively simple process as in the technique of Patent Document 1. A board can be obtained.
However, since the cellulose acetate film having high moisture permeability is provided on one side, the problem of insufficient heat and moisture resistance and the adhesion between the first adhesive layer, which is a water-based adhesive, and the cycloolefin resin film are present. There is a problem of being insufficient.
According to the technique described in Patent Document 3, since the protective films on both sides of the polarizer are made of a thermoplastic saturated norbornene-based resin, a polarizing plate having good moisture and heat resistance can be obtained.
However, since a protective film with low moisture permeability is used, it takes a long time to evaporate and cure the water of the water-based urethane adhesive, which is a water-based adhesive, or compared to the case where a TAC-based film is used. There is a problem that the manufacturing process becomes complicated. Moreover, since the protective film which consists of a thermoplastic saturated norbornene-type resin is hydrophobic, there exists a problem that adhesiveness with an aqueous adhesive is inadequate.
On the other hand, when manufacturing a polarizing plate, excellent chip cut resistance is required. That is, the polarizing plate is usually obtained by cutting a laminated sheet for a polarizing plate into a desired size, but at the time of this cutting, peeling (the adhesive layer is missing) at the cutting portion (end after cutting). There is a problem that may occur. This peeling not only lowers the polarization performance of the peeled portion, but also promotes moisture absorption of the polarizing plate and may cause deformation under high temperature and high humidity.
The present invention has been made in view of the above-described background, and can be manufactured in a short time with a simple manufacturing process. Chip cut resistance (no peeling during cutting), moisture heat resistance, protective film -It aims at providing the polarizing plate excellent in the adhesiveness of an adhesive bond layer, etc., and its manufacturing method.

  As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventor has adhered the polarizing film and the protective film using a radiation curable composition containing a specific component, thereby preventing chip cut resistance, moisture heat resistance, The present inventors have found that a polarizing plate excellent in adhesiveness and the like can be produced in a short time by a simple production process.

That is, the present invention provides the following [1] to [5].
[1] A polarizing plate in which a protective film is laminated on at least one surface of a polyvinyl alcohol polarizing film via an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesive layer is (A) an alicyclic epoxy compound, (B) A cured product of a radiation curable composition comprising a compound having a polystyrene-equivalent number average molecular weight of 500 or more measured by gel permeation chromatography and containing at least one hydroxyl group, and (C) a photoacid generator. A polarizing plate comprising:
[2] The polarizing plate according to [1], wherein the component (B) is a compound having a polystyrene-equivalent number average molecular weight of 1,000 or more measured by gel permeation chromatography and having one or more hydroxyl groups. .

[4] A method for producing a polarizing plate according to any one of [1] to [3], wherein a step of laminating a protective film on at least one surface of a polarizing film via a radiation curable composition, and the radiation curing The manufacturing method of the polarizing plate including the hardening process which hardens the light-sensitive composition by light irradiation and obtains a polarizing plate.

Since the polarizing plate of the present invention is made of a cured product of a radiation curable composition having a specific component composition, the chip has excellent chip cut resistance (the adhesive layer does not peel off during cutting). Have.
Since the polarizing plate of the present invention comprises a cured product of a non-aqueous radiation curable composition having a specific component composition, even if a norbornene-based resin film that is impermeable to moisture is used as a protective film, Therefore, good adhesiveness can be obtained in a short time. In addition, a norbornene-based resin film can be applied as a protective film on both surfaces of the polarizing film. In this case, particularly excellent moisture and heat resistance can be obtained, and high polarization performance can be maintained even in a high temperature and high humidity environment.
According to the method for producing a polarizing plate of the present invention, a protective film is laminated on one side or both sides of a polarizing film via a radiation curable composition for forming an adhesive layer, and the radiation curable composition is irradiated with radiation. A polarizing plate can be produced by a simple operation of curing. Therefore, it is not necessary to remove moisture as in the case of using a water-based adhesive. Further, even when a norbornene-based resin film that is impermeable to moisture is used as a protective film, the manufacturing process is not complicated and time-consuming as in the case of using a water-based adhesive, and each interlayer It is possible to obtain a polarizing plate that is a laminated film having excellent adhesion.

In the present invention, of the upper and lower protective films, one of the protective films needs to be an ultraviolet absorber-preventing protective film, and the other protective film needs to be an ultraviolet transmissive protective film.
The UV-protective protective film plays a role of protecting the liquid crystal cell from external ultraviolet rays when the polarizing plate is disposed on both surfaces of the liquid crystal cell. An ultraviolet absorber is appropriately blended in the ultraviolet protective protective film. The light transmittance at a wavelength of 380 nm of the ultraviolet protective film is, for example, 10% or less.
The said ultraviolet-permeable protective film is for hardening a radiation-curable composition by performing radiation irradiation (light irradiation) from the said protective film side. The ultraviolet ray transmissive protective film does not contain an ultraviolet absorber or contains an ultraviolet absorber so that the radiation curable composition can be cured by irradiating light through the protective film. The transmittance of light at a wavelength of 380 nm of the ultraviolet transparent protective film is, for example, 60% or more.

A retardation can also be provided in the protective film.
Although the thickness of a protective film is not specifically limited, For example, it determines so that it may become 10-200 micrometers.
