JP5186327B2 - Anti-glare film, polarizing plate, and image display device - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to an antiglare film, a polarizing plate having the antiglare film, and an image display device.

  Antiglare films with an antiglare hard coat layer laminated on a transparent plastic film substrate are like liquid crystal display devices (LCD), plasma display panels (PDP), electroluminescence displays (ELD), and cathode ray tube display devices (CRT). In various pixel display devices, they are disposed on the surface of a display in order to prevent a decrease in contrast due to reflection of external light or reflection of an image due to surface scattering.

  In recent years, with the price reduction of liquid crystal televisions and the like, image display devices equipped with such an antiglare film have been widely used. In connection with this, the scene where the anti-glare film mounted is exposed to various environments with the image display apparatus is increasing. In particular, it is handled like a CRT television whose surface is glass, and there is an increased risk of scratching the surface of the liquid crystal display device. Therefore, the antiglare film disposed on the outermost surface of the liquid crystal display device is required to have high physical strength (such as scratch resistance) in addition to the high visibility improving effect that has been conventionally required.

  In order to obtain high physical strength, a hard coating layer with a film thickness of 10 μm or more is laminated on a cellulose acylate film by applying a curable composition containing a photocurable resin and an organic solvent, drying, and photocuring. An antireflection film has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  Moreover, a film thickness is 15-35 micrometers by apply | coating, drying, and photocuring the curable composition containing the resin particle of 6-15 micrometers of average particle diameters, a curable resin, and the organic solvent on a cellulose acylate film. An antiglare film having a high surface hardness obtained by laminating an antiglare layer has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

  The anti-glare layer having a large film thickness is effective for preventing scratches generated by the force applied perpendicularly to the surface of the display screen, but not effective for scratches generated by the force parallel to the surface. .

  Moreover, the method of coating the thin film containing a silica particle on the layer which has a fine unevenness | corrugation on the surface is disclosed (for example, refer patent document 3). However, since this method contains silica particles of 1 μm or more in the thin film layer, surface scattering is strong, and whitishness may appear strong when observed in a bright room.

  On the other hand, in order to improve the film thickness uniformity without causing problems such as coating unevenness, it is possible to adjust the viscosity of the coating solution by adding a polymer compound to the hard coat layer or antiglare layer. Generally known (see, for example, Patent Document 4). However, when coexisting with silica particles, simple addition of a polymer compound causes white haze-like surface unevenness locally, and is visible in a relatively bright bright room environment where a solar light source is inserted. In some cases, white haze-like surface unevenness may become apparent.

  Furthermore, an antiglare film is disclosed in which a fine particle-containing cured resin layer containing inorganic or organic fine particles and a clear cured resin layer not containing fine particles are laminated in this order on a plastic film substrate (see, for example, Patent Document 5). ). However, further improvements in surface scratch resistance have been desired.

  On the other hand, an antiglare film in which an antiglare layer and a low refractive index layer containing a fluorine binder are laminated in this order on a plastic film substrate is generally known (for example, see Patent Document 6). However, generally, a fluorine binder has a weak cohesive force, and an antiglare film in which such a fluorine binder layer is laminated on the outermost surface has low scratch resistance, and an improvement thereof has been desired.

  The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, to provide an antiglare film excellent in scratch resistance, antiglare property, visibility in a bright room, and excellent in terms of coating unevenness, An object of the present invention is to provide a polarizing plate including the antiglare film and an image display device having excellent scratch resistance and good visibility by including the polarizing plate.

<Configuration of antiglare layer>
The antiglare layer in the present invention may be any layer as long as it has a fine uneven shape on the surface, but preferably contains at least one light transmissive resin and at least one light diffusing particle.

  The antiglare layer in the present invention preferably contains light diffusing particles having an average particle diameter of 2 μm to 20 μm. The light diffusing particles are preferably translucent particles having an average particle size of 5 μm to 15 μm, and more preferably translucent particles having an average particle size of 5.5 μm to 15 μm.

  As an aspect of the antiglare layer of the present invention, a coating liquid containing translucent particles having an average particle diameter of 5.5 μm to 15 μm, matrix forming components (such as monomers for binder) and an organic solvent is applied, dried and cured. Preferably, the layer is

  The coating solution for forming the antiglare layer includes, for example, main monomers for matrix-forming binders that are raw materials for a light-transmitting polymer formed by curing with ionizing radiation, the light-transmitting particles having the specific particle diameter, and a polymerization initiator. Preferably, it contains a polymer compound for adjusting the viscosity of the coating solution, an inorganic fine particle filler for curling reduction and refractive index adjustment, a coating aid and the like.

  The thickness of the antiglare layer is preferably 8 μm to 40 μm, more preferably 10 μm to 35 μm, and most preferably 11 μm to 25 μm. When the thickness is less than 8 μm, the surface irregularities become too large when the light-transmitting particles described below are used, and the black tightening deteriorates, and when it exceeds 40 μm, the surface irregularities become small and the antiglare property is insufficient.

<Translucent particles of antiglare layer>
The average particle size of the particles is preferably 5.5 μm to 15 μm, more preferably 6.0 μm to 12 μm, and even more preferably 6.0 μm to 10 μm.

In the present invention, the antiglare layer can be formed of one kind of translucent particle, but it is more preferably formed of two kinds of particles having the same average particle size and different refractive indexes. In the present invention, the translucent particles are dispersed in a coating solution for forming an antiglare layer and applied, dried and cured to form an antiglare layer. The average particle diameter of the translucent particles refers to the primary particle diameter regardless of whether two or more particles are present adjacent to each other in the coating film or independently. However, agglomerated inorganic particles having a primary particle size of about 0.1 μm are dispersed as secondary particles in the coating solution in a size that satisfies the particle size of the present application, and then applied to the secondary particles. Magnitude.
In this invention, it is excellent in stability of the surface shape after preserve | saving a coating liquid as the average particle diameter of particle | grains is said range. In addition, the screen is excellent in blackening and has an appropriate anti-glare property.

  In the present invention, in order to achieve excellent antiglare property and black tightening simultaneously, in addition to the above, the ratio (φ / t) of the average particle size φ of the translucent particles and the film thickness (t) of the antiglare layer is important. φ / t is preferably 0.3 to 0.7, and more preferably 0.35 to 0.65. Especially preferably, it is 0.4-0.6. If φ / t is too large, the surface roughness is strong and the appearance tends to deteriorate, and if it is too small, the black tightening tends to decrease.

  In the present invention, it is necessary to adjust the refractive index of the particles and the matrix in order to obtain the necessary internal scattering properties. The refractive index difference between at least one kind of particles and the matrix is preferably 0.02 to 0.5, more preferably 0.02 to 0.20, and most preferably 0.03 to 0.15. When two kinds of particles are included, the difference in refractive index between the particles is preferably 0.02 to 0.20, and more preferably 0.02 to 0.10.

  When two kinds of particles are included, it is also preferable that one has a refractive index lower than that of the matrix and one has a higher refractive index than that of the matrix. For example, particles having a high refractive index preferably have a refractive index of 1.54 to 1.70, more preferably 1.55 to 1.60, and particles having a low refractive index preferably have a refractive index of 1.44 to 1.53. More preferably, it is 1.46 to 1.52. Control of internal scattering and surface shape is facilitated by the difference in refractive index between the two types of particles. Further, the stability of the surface shape after storing the coating solution is improved.

  The reason why the stability of the surface shape is improved before and after storage of the coating solution is not clear, but is estimated as follows. When particles having different refractive indexes are used, the surface state is different, so that the aggregation and dispersion behavior in the matrix is also different. Coexistence of particles that are slightly different in particle size and difficult to agglomerate with particles that are prone to agglomeration, so that particle agglomeration does not progress during storage of the coating solution and the surface morphology of the applied antiglare layer is stable. Is realized. For example, when a general-purpose polyfunctional acrylate compound is used as a matrix-forming binder, when resin particles having a refractive index of translucent particles of 1.54 or more are used, the tendency of the particles to agglomerate is strong. The surface shape changes easily. By mixing particles having different particle sizes, it is possible to suppress the growth of the size of the aggregates and to stabilize the surface shape. In addition, by mixing particles having a refractive index of 1.53 or less, which has a small aggregating property of the particles themselves, the growth of the aggregates can be more effectively suppressed, and the stabilization of the surface morphology is achieved.

  The amount of particles added is preferably 1 to 60% by mass, more preferably 2 to 50% by mass, and most preferably 3 to 40% by mass in the total solid content of the light scattering layer. When the particles are in this ratio, the effect of reducing the variation of the surface morphology of the coating film accompanying the change with time of the coating solution is excellent.

  The particles can be selected from the particles described below according to the desired refractive index and average particle size.

  In the present invention, resin particles and / or inorganic fine particles are used as the translucent particles.

  Specific examples of the resin particles include, for example, crosslinked polymethyl methacrylate particles, crosslinked methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer particles, crosslinked polystyrene particles, crosslinked methyl methacrylate-methyl acrylate copolymer particles, crosslinked acrylate-styrene copolymer particles, Preferred examples include resin particles such as melamine / formaldehyde resin particles and benzoguanamine / formaldehyde resin particles. Of these, crosslinked styrene particles, crosslinked polymethyl methacrylate particles, crosslinked methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer particles, and the like are preferable.

The particle | grains which couple | bonded the inorganic fine particle of the size to the surface are also mentioned preferably. Moreover, inorganic fine particles can also be used as the translucent particles. Specific examples of the inorganic fine particles include silica particles and alumina particles, and silica particles are particularly preferably used.

  In the present invention, when the refractive index of the matrix is 1.54 or less, and particularly preferably the refractive index is 1.53 or less, from the viewpoint of cost, it is difficult to notice uneven coating or interference unevenness. Are preferably crosslinked polymethyl methacrylate particles, crosslinked methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer particles, and silica particles. When using crosslinked methyl methacrylate-styrene copolymer particles, the copolymerization ratio of styrene is preferably 50% or more and 90% or less.

  As the shape of the particle, either a true sphere or an irregular shape can be used. The particle size distribution is preferably monodisperse particles because of the haze value, controllability of diffusibility, and uniformity of the coated surface. For example, when a particle having a particle size of 20% or more than the average particle size is defined as a coarse particle, the proportion of the coarse particle is preferably 1% or less of the total number of particles, more preferably 0.1% or less. Yes, more preferably 0.01% or less. Particles having such a particle size distribution are obtained by classification after a normal synthesis reaction, and particles having a more preferable distribution can be obtained by increasing the number of classifications or increasing the degree of classification.

  The particle size distribution of the particles is measured by a Coulter counter method, and the measured distribution is converted into a particle number distribution. The average particle size is calculated from the obtained particle distribution.

  In the antiglare film of the present invention, the haze value resulting from surface scattering is preferably 0 to 10%, more preferably 0.5 to 5%. By setting the surface haze to this range, an antiglare film excellent in blackening can be obtained. The haze value resulting from internal scattering is preferably 8 to 90%, more preferably 10 to 40%, and most preferably 10 to 30%. By setting the internal haze in this range, it is possible to practically satisfy the two performances of lowering the surface contrast and preventing glare. These hazes can be adjusted by adjusting the type and amount of the light-transmitting particles.

  When the antiglare film of the present invention is used in a liquid crystal display device, it is disposed on the outermost surface of the display by providing an adhesive layer on one side. Moreover, you may combine the optical film and polarizing plate of this invention. When the transparent support is triacetyl cellulose, triacetyl cellulose is used as a protective film for protecting the polarizing layer of the polarizing plate. Therefore, it is preferable in terms of cost to use the antiglare film of the present invention as it is for the protective film.

When the antiglare film of the present invention is used as it is as a protective film for a polarizing plate, it is preferable to carry out a saponification treatment after forming the outermost layer on the transparent support in order to sufficiently adhere it.

By saponification treatment, the surface of the transparent support opposite to the side having the outermost layer is hydrophilized.

<Application method>
The antiglare film of the present invention can be formed by the following method, but is not limited to this method. First, a coating solution containing components for forming each layer is prepared. Next, a coating solution for forming an antiglare layer is applied onto the transparent support by dip coating, air knife coating, curtain coating, roller coating, wire bar coating, gravure coating, or die coating. The microgravure coating method, the wire bar coating method, and the die coating method (see US Pat. No. 2,681,294 and JP-A-2006-122889) are more preferable, and the die coating method is particularly preferable.

  Thereafter, the monomer for forming the antiglare layer is polymerized and cured by light irradiation or heating. Thereby, an anti-glare layer is formed.

Next, a coating solution for forming a scratch-resistant layer is applied on the antiglare layer in the same manner, and light-irradiated to form a scratch-resistant layer. Thus, the antiglare film of the present invention is obtained.
When another functional layer is formed under the antiglare layer or between the antiglare layer and the scratch resistant layer, it can be formed using the same method as that for the antiglare layer.

<Polarizing plate>
The polarizing plate is mainly composed of two protective films that protect both the front and back sides of the polarizing film. The antiglare film of the present invention is preferably used for at least one of the two protective films sandwiching the polarizing film from both sides. Since the antiglare film of the present invention also serves as a protective film, the manufacturing cost of the polarizing plate can be reduced. Further, by using the antiglare film of the present invention as the outermost layer, reflection of external light and the like can be prevented, and a polarizing plate having excellent scratch resistance, antifouling property and the like can be obtained.

Examples of the optical compensation film include Wide View Film A 12B manufactured by FUJIFILM Corporation, and can be expected to have excellent antireflection performance, and excellent visibility and display quality.

The hydrophilized surface is particularly effective for improving the adhesion with a polarizing film containing polyvinyl alcohol as a main component.
