Description

The present invention relates to a polarizing plate and an organic electroluminescence (EL) display device.

In recent years, along with the spread of thin displays, displays (organic EL display devices) equipped with organic EL panels have been proposed. Since the organic EL panel has a highly reflective metal layer, problems such as external light reflection and background reflection are likely to occur. Therefore, it is known to prevent these problems by providing a polarizing plate with a retardation layer, which is a combination of a polarizing plate and a retardation plate, on the viewing side (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, there is a problem that the polarizing plate provided in the organic EL display device is easily bleached.

A. Polarizing plate FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the schematic configuration of a polarizing plate according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of the schematic configuration of the laminated film of the polarizing plate shown in FIG. It is a diagram. A polarizing plate (polarizing plate with a retardation layer) 100 includes a polarizer 10 having a first main surface 10a and a second main surface 10b facing each other, and a laminated film arranged on the first main surface 10a side of the polarizer 10. 20 , and a retardation layer 30 and an adhesive layer 40 which are arranged on the second main surface 10 b side of the polarizer 10 . Laminated film 20 includes substrate 21 and hard coat layer 22 in this order from the polarizer 10 side, and substrate 21 can function as a protective layer for polarizer 10 . The polarizing plate 100 is typically arranged so that the laminated film 20 is on the viewer side of the polarizer 10 in the organic EL display device.

In the illustrated example, the retardation layer 30 is a single layer, but unlike the illustrated example, it may have a laminated structure of two or more layers. Specifically, the retardation layer 30 may include two or more layers having different optical properties (for example, refractive index properties, in-plane retardation, Nz coefficient, photoelastic coefficient). In the illustrated example, no protective layer is arranged between the polarizer 10 and the retardation layer 30, and the retardation layer 30 is arranged adjacent to the polarizer 10 as a protective layer for the polarizer 10. Although functional, polarizer 100 may have a protective layer disposed between polarizer 10 and retardation layer 30 . Note that "adjacent" includes not only direct adjacency but also adjacency via an adhesive layer, which will be described later.

Each member constituting the polarizing plate can be laminated via any appropriate adhesive layer (not shown). Specific examples of the adhesive layer include an adhesive layer and an adhesive layer. For example, the laminated film 20 is attached to the polarizer 10 via an adhesive layer (preferably using an active energy ray-curable adhesive). For example, the retardation layer 30 is applied via an adhesive layer (preferably using an active energy ray-curable adhesive), or via an adhesive layer (for example, an acrylic adhesive) to the polarizer 10 or It is attached to a protective layer (not shown). When the retardation layer 30 has a laminated structure of two or more layers, the respective retardation layers are bonded together via an adhesive layer (preferably using an active energy ray-curable adhesive), for example. The thickness of the adhesive layer is preferably 0.4 μm or more, more preferably 0.4 μm to 3.0 μm, still more preferably 0.6 μm to 1.5 μm. The thickness of the adhesive layer is preferably 1 μm to 10 μm.

For example, the polarizing plate 100 can be attached to the organic EL panel main body by the adhesive layer 40 arranged on the second main surface 10b side of the polarizer 10 . Although not shown, a release liner is practically adhered to the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 40 . The release liner can be temporarily attached until the polarizer is ready for use. By using a release liner, for example, it is possible to protect the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and roll-form the polarizing plate.

The polarizing plate may be elongated or sheet-shaped. Here, the term "elongated" refers to an elongated shape whose length is sufficiently longer than its width, for example, an elongated shape whose length is 10 times or more, preferably 20 times or more, its width. A long polarizing plate can be wound into a roll.

A-1. Polarizer The polarizer is typically a film containing a dichroic substance (typically iodine).

For example, the thickness of the polarizer is preferably 15 μm or less, more preferably 12 μm or less, even more preferably 10 μm or less, and particularly preferably 8 μm or less, from the viewpoint of thinning. On the other hand, the thickness of the polarizer is preferably 1 μm or more, more preferably 2 μm or more, and even more preferably 3 μm or more.

The polarizer preferably exhibits absorption dichroism at any wavelength of 380 nm to 780 nm. The single transmittance of the polarizer is, for example, 40.0% or more, preferably 41.5% or more, more preferably 43.0% or more, still more preferably 44.5% or more. In a polarizer having a high unitary transmittance, the problem of decolorization can become more pronounced. On the other hand, the single transmittance is, for example, 48.0% or less, may be 46.0% or less, or may be 45.0% or less. The degree of polarization of the polarizer is preferably 97.0% or higher, more preferably 99.0% or higher, still more preferably 99.9% or higher.

The single transmittance is typically a Y value measured using an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer and subjected to visibility correction. The degree of polarization is typically obtained by the following formula based on the parallel transmittance Tp and the orthogonal transmittance Tc measured using an ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer and subjected to visibility correction.
Degree of polarization (%) = {(Tp-Tc)/(Tp+Tc)} ^1/2 × 100

A polarizer may be made in any suitable manner. Specifically, the polarizer may be produced from a single-layer resin film, or may be produced using a laminate of two or more layers.

The method of producing a polarizer from the single-layer resin film typically includes dyeing the resin film with a dichroic substance such as iodine or a dichroic dye and stretching the film. As the resin film, for example, hydrophilic polymer films such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films, partially formalized PVA films, and partially saponified ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer films are used. The method may further include an insolubilization treatment, a swelling treatment, a cross-linking treatment, and the like. Since such a manufacturing method is well known and commonly used in the industry, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

A polarizer obtained using the laminate can be produced, for example, using a laminate of a resin substrate and a resin film or resin layer (typically, a PVA-based resin layer). Specifically, a PVA-based resin solution is applied to a resin base material, dried to form a PVA-based resin layer on the resin base material, and a laminate of the resin base material and the PVA-based resin layer is obtained; stretching and dyeing the laminate to use the PVA-based resin layer as a polarizer; In this embodiment, preferably, a PVA-based resin layer containing a halide and a PVA-based resin is formed on one side of the resin substrate. Stretching typically includes immersing the laminate in an aqueous boric acid solution for stretching. Furthermore, stretching may further include stretching the laminate in air at a high temperature (eg, 95° C. or higher) before stretching in an aqueous boric acid solution, if necessary. In addition, in the present embodiment, the laminate is preferably subjected to drying shrinkage treatment in which the laminate is heated while being conveyed in the longitudinal direction to shrink the laminate by 2% or more in the width direction. Typically, the manufacturing method of the present embodiment includes subjecting the laminate to an in-air auxiliary stretching treatment, a dyeing treatment, an underwater stretching treatment, and a drying shrinkage treatment in this order. By introducing auxiliary stretching, it is possible to improve the crystallinity of PVA and achieve high optical properties even when PVA is applied onto a thermoplastic resin. At the same time, by increasing the orientation of PVA in advance, it is possible to prevent problems such as deterioration of orientation and dissolution of PVA when immersed in water in the subsequent dyeing process or stretching process, resulting in high optical properties. can be achieved. Furthermore, when the PVA-based resin layer is immersed in a liquid, compared with the case where the PVA-based resin layer does not contain a halide, the disturbance of the orientation of the PVA molecules and the deterioration of the orientation can be suppressed, and high optical properties can be obtained. achievable. Furthermore, high optical properties can be achieved by shrinking the laminate in the width direction by drying shrinkage treatment. A polarizing plate can be obtained by laminating a protective layer on the peeled surface of the obtained resin substrate/polarizer laminate, or on the surface opposite to the peeled surface. Details of the method for manufacturing such a polarizer are described in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-73580 and Japanese Patent No. 6470455. These publications are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.

A-2. Laminated Film In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the laminated film 20 has a substrate (protective layer) 21, a substrate 21, and a hard coat layer 22, and further includes a substrate 21 and a hard coat layer 22. An intermediate layer 23 may be formed between the coat layer 22 and the coating layer 22 . The polarizing plate according to the embodiment of the present invention is typically arranged on the viewing side of the organic EL display device, and the hard coat layer 22 is arranged on the viewing side of the substrate 21 . The hard coat layer 22 may function as other functional layers such as an antireflection layer, an antisticking layer, an antiglare layer, and the like.

The thickness of the laminated film is, for example, 15 μm or more and 70 μm or less, preferably 20 μm or more and 50 μm or less.

The moisture permeability of the laminated film at 40° C. and 92% RH is 300 g/m ² ·24h or more, preferably 320 g/m ² ·24h or more, more preferably 340 g/m ² ·24h or more. On the other hand, the moisture permeability of the laminated film at 40° C. and 92% RH is, for example, 900 g/m ² ·24 h or less.

The moisture permeability at 40° C. and 92% RH of the laminated film subjected to humidification treatment is preferably 550 g/m ² ·24 h or more, more preferably 570 g/m ² ·24 h or more, and still more preferably 600 g/m 2 . ^m2 ·24h or more. The rate of change in moisture permeability due to humidification (moisture permeability after humidification/moisture permeability before humidification) is preferably 1.4 or more, more preferably 1.5 or more. By using such a laminated film, decoloration can be remarkably suppressed. Specifically, it has high moisture permeability even in a high-humidity environment where the generation of ammonia (ammonium ion), which will be described later, is promoted, and can significantly suppress decoloration. On the other hand, the moisture permeability at 40° C. and 92% RH of the laminated film subjected to humidification treatment is, for example, 1000 g/m ² ·24 h or less. The rate of change in moisture permeability due to humidification (moisture permeability after humidification/moisture permeability before humidification) is preferably 2.0 or less, more preferably 1.9 or less. Note that the humidification treatment is performed by, for example, placing the laminated film in an environment of 65° C. and 95% RH for 48 hours.

The substrate may be composed of any suitable film that can be used as a protective layer for polarizers. Materials constituting such a substrate (film) include, for example, cellulose-based resins such as triacetylcellulose (TAC), cycloolefin-based resins such as polynorbornene, polycarbonate-based resins, (meth)acrylic-based resins, and polyethylene. Examples include polyester resins such as terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), and polyolefin resins such as polyethylene. Preferably, a cellulose-based resin such as triacetyl cellulose (TAC) is used as the material constituting the base material.

The thickness of the substrate is, for example, 10 μm or more and 65 μm or less, preferably 15 μm or more and 45 μm or less.

The hard coat layer is typically formed by applying a hard coat layer-forming material to the substrate and curing the applied layer. A hard coat layer-forming material typically contains a curable compound as a layer-forming component. Curing mechanisms of the curable compound include, for example, thermosetting and photocuring. Curable compounds include, for example, monomers, oligomers, and prepolymers. Preferably, polyfunctional monomers or oligomers are used as curable compounds. Examples of polyfunctional monomers or oligomers include monomers or oligomers having two or more (meth)acryloyl groups, urethane (meth)acrylates or urethane (meth)acrylate oligomers, epoxy-based monomers or oligomers, and silicone-based monomers or oligomers. is mentioned.

The hard coat layer-forming material may contain any appropriate additive. Additives include, for example, polymerization initiators, leveling agents, antiblocking agents, dispersion stabilizers, thixotropic agents, antioxidants, UV absorbers, antifoaming agents, thickeners, dispersants, surfactants, and catalysts. , fillers, lubricants, antistatic agents, and the like. The type, combination, content, etc. of additives can be appropriately set according to the purpose and desired properties.

When the curable compound is of a thermosetting type, the heating temperature is, for example, 60°C to 140°C, preferably 60°C to 100°C. When the curable compound is photocurable, the curing treatment is typically carried out by UV irradiation. The integrated amount of UV irradiation is, for example, 100 mJ/cm ² to 300 mJ/cm ² . UV irradiation and heating may be combined.

The thickness of the hard coat layer is preferably 1 μm or more, more preferably 1.5 μm or more, still more preferably 2 μm or more. With such a thickness, it is possible to prevent the moisture permeability of the laminated film from becoming too high. Moreover, the abrasion resistance of the obtained polarizing plate can be ensured. On the other hand, the thickness of the hard coat layer is preferably 8 μm or less, more preferably 7 μm or less, and even more preferably 6 μm or less. With such a thickness, the moisture permeability can be satisfactorily satisfied, and decolorization can be significantly suppressed. In addition, the scratch resistance is evaluated, for example, by rubbing the surface of the hard coat layer with a cylinder having steel wool #0000 attached to the bottom surface at a load of 1.0 kg at a speed of about 100 mm per second for 1000 reciprocations. It can be evaluated by visually confirming the degree of scratches on the layer surface.

The intermediate layer may contain a component derived from the substrate and a component derived from the hard coat layer. Specifically, the component that forms the base material and the component that forms the hard coat layer may be compatible (mixed) together. For example, if the substrate comprises TAC, components derived from the substrate include TAC, acetic acid and cellulose. In the laminated film, the interface between the intermediate layer and the substrate and the interface between the intermediate layer and the hard coat layer can be confirmed by observation with a transmission electron microscope (TEM).

The thickness of the intermediate layer is, for example, 1 μm or more and 30 μm or less, preferably 1 μm or more and 20 μm or less.

The ratio of the thickness of the hard coat layer to the thickness of the intermediate layer (thickness of hard coat layer/thickness of intermediate layer) is preferably 0.65 or less, more preferably 0.6 or less, still more preferably 0.65 or less. 5 or less. According to such a thickness ratio, it is possible to obtain a polarizing plate that can satisfactorily satisfy the above moisture permeability and remarkably suppress discoloration. The present inventors have faced the above-mentioned problem that the polarizing plate decolors when the polarizing plate is used in an organic EL display device. Ammonia (substantially, ammonium ions) that is likely to be generated in a high-humidity environment, and by discharging as much ammonium ions that have entered the polarizing plate (polarizer) as possible, decolorization is significantly suppressed. I found what I could do. Further, discoloration can be remarkably suppressed by satisfying the predetermined moisture permeability of the member arranged on one side (typically, the viewing side) of the polarizer. Specifically, decomposition of a dichroic substance (typically an iodine complex) contained in the polarizer can be suppressed. In addition, from the viewpoint of protecting the polarizer from moisture, the moisture permeability of the member arranged on the viewing side of the polarizer is usually designed to be as small as possible. It is based on a technical idea that is completely opposite to the technical common sense of On the other hand, the ratio of the thickness of the hard coat layer to the thickness of the intermediate layer preferably exceeds 0.15, more preferably 0.18 or more, and even more preferably 0.2 or more. According to such a thickness ratio, for example, change in moisture permeability of the laminated film due to humidification can be suppressed.

The intermediate layer can be formed, for example, by adding a good solvent capable of dissolving the substrate into the solvent that may be contained in the hard coat layer-forming material. Specifically, some of the components contained in the hard coat layer-forming material (typically, a solvent) are mixed with the base material and/or permeate into the base material to form the base material and the hard coat. The components that form the layer are compatible (mixed), and an intermediate layer can be formed.

Examples of the solvent that may be contained in the hard coat layer-forming material include alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, butanol, TBA (tertiary butyl alcohol), and 2-methoxyethanol; acetone, MEK (methyl ethyl ketone). , MIBK (methyl isobutyl ketone), ketones such as cyclopentanone; esters such as methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, PMA (propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate); ethers such as diisopropyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether; glycols such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol; cellosolves such as ethyl cellosolve and butyl cellosolve; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, heptane and octane; and aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and xylene. These may be used individually by 1 type, and may use 2 or more types together. The content of the solvent is set so that the solid concentration of the hard coat layer-forming material is, for example, 20% by weight or more and 50% by weight or less, preferably 30% by weight or more and 45% by weight or less.

As a good solvent capable of dissolving the base material, for example, a solvent that dissolves 30 parts by weight or more of the base material (solute) with respect to 100 parts by weight of the solvent is used. As a specific example, when the substrate contains TAC, good solvents capable of dissolving the substrate include, for example, cyclopentanone (for example, the amount of TAC dissolved in 100 parts by weight of cyclopentanone is 40 parts by weight), MEK ( For example, the amount of TAC dissolved in 100 parts by weight of MEK is 60 parts by weight), cyclohexanone, methyl acetate, and ethyl acetate are preferably used.

In one embodiment, the hard coat layer-forming material contains a good solvent capable of dissolving the substrate and a poor solvent substantially insoluble in the substrate. As a poor solvent that does not substantially dissolve the base material, for example, a solvent that dissolves less than 30 parts by weight of the base material (solute) with respect to 100 parts by weight of the solvent is used. ) is dissolved in an amount of 10 parts by weight or less. When the substrate contains TAC, for example, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and hexane are preferably used as poor solvents that do not substantially dissolve the substrate. The hard coat layer-forming material preferably contains more good solvent capable of dissolving the substrate than poor solvent which does not substantially dissolve the substrate. The ratio of the content of the good solvent capable of dissolving the substrate to the content of the poor solvent that does not substantially dissolve the substrate (content of good solvent/content of poor solvent, weight ratio) is, for example, more than 1 and 20 or less, preferably 1.5 or more and 10 or less, more preferably 2 or more and 5 or less.

A-3. Retardation Layer The retardation layer 30 may be a single layer as illustrated, or may have a laminated structure (substantially a two-layer structure).

When the retardation layer 30 is a single layer, the retardation layer 30 can typically function as a λ/4 plate. A retardation layer is typically provided to impart antireflection properties to an organic EL display device. The retardation layer typically exhibits a refractive index characteristic of nx>ny=nz. The in-plane retardation Re(550) of the retardation layer is preferably 100 nm to 190 nm, more preferably 110 nm to 170 nm, still more preferably 120 nm to 160 nm. Here, "ny=nz" includes not only the case where ny and nz are completely equal but also the case where they are substantially equal. Therefore, ny>nz or ny<nz may be satisfied within a range that does not impair the effects of the present invention.

The Nz coefficient of the retardation layer is preferably 0.9 to 1.5, more preferably 0.9 to 1.3. By satisfying such a relationship, it is possible to obtain an organic EL display device having a very excellent reflective hue.

When the retardation layer is a single layer, the retardation layer preferably exhibits reverse dispersion wavelength characteristics in which the retardation value increases according to the wavelength of the measurement light. In this case, Re(450)/Re(550) of the retardation layer is preferably 0.8 or more and less than 1, more preferably 0.8 or more and 0.95 or less. With such a configuration, very excellent antireflection properties can be achieved.

The angle formed by the slow axis of the retardation layer and the absorption axis of the polarizer is preferably 40° to 50°, more preferably 42° to 48°, still more preferably about 45°. If the angle is within such a range, an organic EL display device having extremely excellent antireflection properties can be obtained by using a λ/4 plate as the retardation layer as described above.

The retardation layer may be made of any appropriate material as long as the properties as described above can be satisfied. Specifically, the retardation layer may be a resin film (stretched resin film), or may be an oriented and fixed layer of a liquid crystal compound (hereinafter referred to as a liquid crystal oriented and fixed layer).

The moisture permeability of the resin film constituting the retardation layer at 40° C. and 92% RH is, for example, less than 350 g/m ² ·24 h, may be 300 g/m ² ·24 h or less, and may be 200 g/m ² ·24 h. It may be less than or equal to 100 g/m ² ·24h or less.

Representative examples of the resin constituting the resin film include polycarbonate-based resins and polyester carbonate-based resins (hereinafter sometimes simply referred to as polycarbonate-based resins). Any appropriate polycarbonate-based resin can be used as the polycarbonate-based resin as long as the desired moisture permeability can be obtained. For example, a polycarbonate-based resin includes a structural unit derived from a fluorene-based dihydroxy compound, a structural unit derived from an isosorbide-based dihydroxy compound, an alicyclic diol, an alicyclic dimethanol, di-, tri- or polyethylene glycol, and an alkylene and a structural unit derived from at least one dihydroxy compound selected from the group consisting of glycols or spiroglycols. Preferably, the polycarbonate-based resin contains a structural unit derived from a fluorene-based dihydroxy compound, a structural unit derived from an isosorbide-based dihydroxy compound, a structural unit derived from an alicyclic dimethanol, and/or di-, tri- or polyethylene glycol. More preferably, a structural unit derived from a fluorene-based dihydroxy compound, a structural unit derived from an isosorbide-based dihydroxy compound, and a structural unit derived from di-, tri- or polyethylene glycol. . The polycarbonate-based resin may contain structural units derived from other dihydroxy compounds as necessary. The retardation layer can be formed by stretching a film composed of a polycarbonate-based resin as described above under any appropriate stretching conditions. Incidentally, the details of the method for forming the polycarbonate resin and the retardation layer, for example, JP-A-2014-10291, JP-A-2014-26266, JP-A-2015-212816, JP-A-2015-212817, It is described in JP-A-2015-212818, JP-A-2017-54093, and JP-A-2018-60014. The descriptions of these publications are incorporated herein by reference.

The moisture permeability at 40° C. and 92% RH of the liquid crystal alignment fixed layer constituting the retardation layer is, for example, 350 g/m ² ·24 h or more, and may be 400 g/m ² ·24 h or more.

By using the above liquid crystal compound, for example, the difference between nx and ny of the obtained retardation layer can be remarkably increased as compared with a non-liquid crystal material. The layer thickness can be significantly reduced. As a result, it is possible to further reduce the thickness of the retardation layer-attached polarizing plate (and as a result, the organic EL display device). As used herein, the term "fixed alignment layer" refers to a layer in which a liquid crystal compound is aligned in a predetermined direction and the alignment state is fixed. In addition, the "alignment fixed layer" is a concept including an alignment cured layer obtained by curing a liquid crystal monomer. In the present embodiment, typically, rod-like liquid crystal compounds are aligned in the slow axis direction of the retardation layer (homogeneous alignment). Rod-shaped liquid crystal compounds include, for example, liquid crystal polymers and liquid crystal monomers. The liquid crystal compound is preferably polymerizable. When the liquid crystal compound is polymerizable, the alignment state of the liquid crystal compound can be fixed by polymerizing after aligning the liquid crystal compound.

The liquid crystal alignment fixed layer can be formed using a composition containing a polymerizable liquid crystal compound (polymerizable liquid crystal compound). The polymerizable liquid crystal compound contained in the composition as used herein refers to a compound having a polymerizable group and liquid crystallinity. A polymerizable group means a group involved in a polymerization reaction, preferably a photopolymerizable group. Here, the photopolymerizable group refers to a group that can participate in a polymerization reaction by an active radical generated from a photopolymerization initiator, an acid, or the like.

Liquid crystalline expression may be thermotropic or lyotropic. Further, the structure of the liquid crystal phase may be nematic liquid crystal or smectic liquid crystal. From the standpoint of ease of manufacture, thermotropic nematic liquid crystals are preferred.

In one embodiment, the liquid crystal alignment fixed layer is formed using a composition containing a liquid crystal compound represented by the following formula (1).
L ¹ -SP ¹ -A ¹ -D ³ -G ¹ -D ¹ -Ar-D ² -G ² -D ⁴ -A ² -SP ² -L ² (1)

L ¹ and L ² each independently represent a monovalent organic group, and at least one of L ¹ and L ² represents a polymerizable group. Monovalent organic groups include any suitable groups. The polymerizable group represented by at least one of L ¹ and L ² includes a radically polymerizable group (group capable of radical polymerization). Any appropriate radically polymerizable group can be used as the radically polymerizable group. An acryloyl group or a methacryloyl group is preferred.
