Description

  The present invention relates to a laminated polyester film, and in particular, relates to a laminated polyester film suitably used as a member for protecting a polarizing plate used in a liquid crystal display.

  In recent years, liquid crystal displays have been widely used as display devices for televisions, personal computers, digital cameras, mobile phones and the like. The liquid crystal display has a front-side polarizing plate // liquid crystal // rear-side polarizing plate, where the display side is the front side and the opposite side (backlight side) is the rear side. The polarizing plate usually has a configuration in which a protective film or the like is bonded to a polarizing film of a polyvinyl alcohol film that is uniaxially stretched (protective film / polarizing film / protective film). The protective films disposed on the front and rear surfaces of the polarizing film constituting the front polarizing plate are designated as protective film A and protective film B, respectively, and the protective films disposed on the front and rear surfaces of the polarizing film constituting the rear polarizing plate. Assuming that the film is a protective film C and a protective film D, respectively, the overall configuration is as follows: from the front side, protective film A / front side polarizing film / protective film B // liquid crystal // protective film C / rear side polarizing film / protective Film D is obtained.

  As a protective film, since it has high transparency and optical isotropy, a triacetyl cellulose film (TAC film) is often used. However, it is inferior in dimensional stability and heat-and-moisture resistance, and has the disadvantage that the surface must be saponified beforehand with an alkaline solution in order to adhere to the polarizing film. As liquid crystal displays increase in size and quality in recent years, improvement in mechanical strength and stability under high-temperature and high-humidity environments is required. The need to avoid quality degradation has emerged. Further, since the alkali treatment uses a high-concentration alkaline solution, it is not preferable in terms of work safety and environmental protection.

  In order to solve these problems, materials other than the TAC film such as a norbornene film have been studied (Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, since a film made of another material does not use a general-purpose resin, there is a problem that the cost is high. Then, the method of using the polyester film which is general purpose resin which can ensure dimensional stability, does not require the process of the alkali treatment which has various problems, and also has no problem also in cost is also proposed.

  However, when the polyester film is used alone, the adhesiveness between the polarizing film and the adhesive used to bond the protective film is poor, and the total light transmittance is low when compared to the TAC film, and the polarizing film is used as a polarizing plate. However, there is a disadvantage that the luminance is lowered. In order to improve the adhesion of the polyester film, a configuration in which an anchor layer is provided has been proposed, but there is no specific disclosure, and depending on the adhesive, it is difficult to ensure sufficient adhesion (patent) Literature 3-5).

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the problem to be solved is that it can solve various problems of a TAC film, has good adhesiveness with an adhesive, and further has a total light transmittance. Therefore, it is to provide a laminated polyester film that can be suitably used as a protective film for a polarizing film, particularly as a protective film for the rear surface of the rear polarizing plate (the protective film D described above).

  As a result of intensive studies in view of the above circumstances, the present inventors have found that the use of a laminated polyester film having a specific configuration can easily solve the above-described problems, and have completed the present invention.

A coating layer containing 10 to 50 % by weight, a coating having an absolute reflectance of one minimum value in a wavelength range of 300 to 800 nm on the other surface, and the minimum value being 3.5% or less. It exists in the laminated polyester film for polarizing film protective films characterized by having a layer.

Functional group: alkyl group, aryl group, heteroaryl group, halogen, alkoxyl group, aryloxy group, hydroxyl group, carboxyl group, ester group, nitro group Among the compounds represented by the above structural formula, in the present invention, 2,2 ′-(1,4-phenylene) bis [4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one] is particularly preferred.

  The amount of the ultraviolet absorber contained in the laminated polyester film of the present invention is 10.0% by weight or less, preferably 0.3 to 3.0% by weight. When an ultraviolet absorber in an amount exceeding 10.0% by weight is contained, the ultraviolet absorber may bleed out on the surface, which may cause deterioration of surface functionality such as adhesion deterioration.

  In the case of a multilayer film, it is preferably at least a three-layer structure, and the ultraviolet absorber is preferably blended in the intermediate layer. By blending an ultraviolet absorber in the intermediate layer, the compound can be prevented from bleeding out to the film surface, and as a result, properties such as film adhesion can be maintained.

  When used as a protective film for a polarizing film, if the laminated polyester film of the present invention prevents deterioration of the liquid crystal due to ultraviolet rays, as a guideline, the light transmittance at a wavelength of 380 nm is preferably 10% or less, more preferably. Is 5% or less.

  In the polyester layer of the film of the present invention, it is preferable to blend particles mainly for the purpose of imparting slipperiness and preventing scratches in each step. The kind of the particle to be blended is not particularly limited as long as it is a particle capable of imparting slipperiness. Specific examples thereof include silica, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, barium carbonate, calcium sulfate, calcium phosphate, and phosphoric acid. Examples of the particles include magnesium, kaolin, aluminum oxide, and titanium oxide. Further, the heat-resistant organic particles described in JP-B-59-5216, JP-A-59-217755 and the like may be used. Examples of other heat-resistant organic particles include thermosetting urea resins, thermosetting phenol resins, thermosetting epoxy resins, benzoguanamine resins, and the like. Furthermore, precipitated particles obtained by precipitating and finely dispersing a part of a metal compound such as a catalyst during the polyester production process can also be used.

  On the other hand, the shape of the particles to be used is not particularly limited, and any of a spherical shape, a block shape, a rod shape, a flat shape, and the like may be used. Moreover, there is no restriction | limiting in particular also about the hardness, specific gravity, a color, etc. These series of particles may be used in combination of two or more as required.

  Moreover, the average particle diameter of the particle | grains to be used is 0.01-3 micrometers normally, Preferably it is the range of 0.1-2 micrometers. If the average particle size is less than 0.01 μm, the slipperiness may not be sufficiently imparted, or the particles may be aggregated to make the dispersibility insufficient, thereby reducing the transparency of the film. On the other hand, if the thickness exceeds 3 μm, the surface roughness of the film becomes too rough, and a problem may occur when a functional layer is formed in a subsequent process.

  Furthermore, the particle content in the polyester layer is usually in the range of 0.0001 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.002 to 3% by weight. When the particle content is less than 0.0001% by weight, the slipperiness of the film may be insufficient. On the other hand, when the content exceeds 5% by weight, the transparency of the film is insufficient. There is a case.

  The method for adding particles to the polyester layer is not particularly limited, and a conventionally known method can be adopted. For example, it can be added at any stage for producing the polyester constituting each layer, but it is preferably added after completion of esterification or transesterification.

  Also, a method of blending a slurry of particles dispersed in ethylene glycol or water with a vented kneading extruder and a polyester raw material, or a blending of dried particles and a polyester raw material using a kneading extruder. It is done by methods.

  In addition to the above-mentioned particles, conventionally known antioxidants, antistatic agents, thermal stabilizers, lubricants, dyes, pigments, and the like can be added to the polyester film in the present invention as necessary.

  Although the thickness of the polyester film in this invention will not be specifically limited if it is a range which can be formed into a film as a film, Usually, 10-200 micrometers, Preferably it is the range of 25-50 micrometers.

  Next, although the manufacture example of the polyester film in this invention is demonstrated concretely, it is not limited to the following manufacture examples at all. That is, a method of using the polyester raw material described above and cooling and solidifying a molten sheet extruded from a die with a cooling roll to obtain an unstretched sheet is preferable. In this case, in order to improve the flatness of the sheet, it is preferable to improve the adhesion between the sheet and the rotary cooling drum, and an electrostatic application adhesion method and / or a liquid application adhesion method is preferably employed. Next, the obtained unstretched sheet is stretched in the biaxial direction. In that case, first, the unstretched sheet is stretched in one direction by a roll or a tenter type stretching machine. The stretching temperature is usually 70 to 120 ° C., preferably 80 to 110 ° C., and the stretching ratio is usually 2.5 to 7 times, preferably 3 to 6 times. Next, the film is stretched in a direction perpendicular to the first-stage stretching direction. In that case, the stretching temperature is usually 70 to 170 ° C., and the stretching ratio is usually 3 to 7 times, preferably 3.5 to 6 times. Subsequently, heat treatment is performed at a temperature of 180 to 270 ° C. under tension or under relaxation within 30% to obtain a biaxially oriented film. In the above-described stretching, a method in which stretching in one direction is performed in two or more stages can be employed. In that case, it is preferable to carry out so that the draw ratios in the two directions finally fall within the above ranges.

  In the present invention, the simultaneous biaxial stretching method can be adopted for the production of the polyester film constituting the laminated polyester film. The simultaneous biaxial stretching method is a method in which the above-mentioned unstretched sheet is usually stretched and oriented in the machine direction and the width direction at a temperature controlled normally at 70 to 120 ° C., preferably 80 to 110 ° C. Is 4 to 50 times, preferably 7 to 35 times, and more preferably 10 to 25 times in terms of area magnification. Subsequently, heat treatment is performed at a temperature of 170 to 250 ° C. under tension or under relaxation within 30% to obtain a stretched oriented film. With respect to the simultaneous biaxial stretching apparatus that employs the above-described stretching method, a conventionally known stretching method such as a screw method, a pantograph method, or a linear driving method can be employed.

  Next, formation of the coating layer which comprises the laminated polyester film in this invention is demonstrated. As for the coating layer, it may be provided by in-line coating, which treats the film surface during the stretching process of the polyester film, or may be applied off-system on the film once manufactured, and may employ both offline coating. You may use together. In-line coating is preferably used in that it can be applied at the same time as film formation, and thus can be manufactured at low cost, and the thickness of the coating layer can be changed by the draw ratio.

  The in-line coating is not limited to the following, but for example, in the sequential biaxial stretching, the coating treatment can be performed particularly before the lateral stretching after the longitudinal stretching is finished. When a coating layer is provided on a polyester film by in-line coating, coating can be performed simultaneously with film formation, and the coating layer can be processed at a high temperature, and a film suitable as a polyester film can be produced.

  Among these crosslinking agents, in particular, when an epoxy compound is used in combination, the coating layer becomes strong, and improvement in adhesion and heat-and-moisture resistance can be expected. These cross-linking agents preferably have water solubility or water dispersibility in consideration of application to in-line coating.

  Further, the first coating layer may contain particles for the purpose of improving the blocking property and slipperiness of the coating layer, and inorganic particles such as silica, alumina, metal oxide, or organic particles such as crosslinked polymer particles. Etc.

  The second coating layer in the present invention has a low reflectance design, and when used as a protective film on the rear surface side of the rear surface side polarizing plate, it can improve the total light transmittance when the polarizing plate is used. It is a coating layer. The total light transmittance of the laminated polyester film is based on the optical properties of the polyester film, the first coating layer, and the second coating layer, but when used as a protective film to be bonded to the polarizing film, the optical properties on the bonding side Does not greatly contribute to the total light transmittance of the entire polarizing plate, the most important optical property is the side not bonded to the polarizing film, that is, the second coating layer side. As the total light transmittance of the laminated polyester film, there is also an influence of the first coating layer, so it cannot be accurately discussed, but in general, it is 90.0% or more, preferably 90.5% or more, more preferably It is 91.0% or more.

  As a result of various investigations in order to grasp the optical characteristics of only the second coating layer more accurately and to consider the total light transmittance when the polarizing plate is made, discuss the absolute reflectance of only the second coating layer. Was found to be preferable. It was noted that the reflectance and the transmittance are mutually related characteristics, and in general, a polyester film having high light transparency and low transparency exhibits high reflectance with low reflectance.

  In the present invention, in order to increase the total light transmittance when a polarizing plate is used, the second coating layer has one minimum value in the range of the wavelength of 300 to 800 nm in absolute reflectance, and the minimum value is It is 3.5% or less. More preferable conditions for the minimum wavelength are in the range of 400 to 700 nm, and more preferably in the range of 450 to 650 nm. The minimum value is preferably 3.0% or less, and more preferably 2.5% or less.

  When the absolute reflectance of the second coating layer of the laminated polyester film is out of the above range, the total light transmittance is reduced when the polarizing plate is used, thereby causing a decrease in the luminance of the polarizing plate and when the liquid crystal display is used. The screen becomes dark.

  Acrylic resin and urethane resin generally have a low refractive index, so that they are suitable for achieving the absolute reflectance as described above, that is, for increasing the total light transmittance when a polarizing plate is used. The material is effective for forming the second coating layer in the present invention. Moreover, the total light transmittance can be improved more effectively by controlling the film thickness to 0.04 to 0.15 μm.

  As the acrylic resin, it is possible to use various hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resins described in the first coating layer and acrylic resins not containing a hydroxyl group. In order to improve the total light transmittance more efficiently, it is also possible to use a fluorine atom-containing compound having a low refractive index.

  The urethane resin in the present invention may use a solvent as a medium, but preferably uses water as a medium. In order to disperse or dissolve the urethane resin in water, there are a forced emulsification type using an emulsifier, a self-emulsification type in which a hydrophilic group is introduced into the urethane resin, and a water-soluble type. In particular, a self-emulsification type in which an ionic group is introduced into a skeleton of a urethane resin to form an ionomer is preferable because of excellent storage stability of the liquid and water resistance, transparency, and adhesiveness of the obtained coating layer. Examples of the ionic group to be introduced include various groups such as a carboxyl group, sulfonic acid, phosphoric acid, phosphonic acid, and quaternary ammonium salt, and a carboxyl group is preferred. As a method for introducing a carboxyl group into a urethane resin, various methods can be taken in each stage of the polymerization reaction. For example, there are a method of using a carboxyl group-containing resin as a copolymer component during prepolymer synthesis, and a method of using a component having a carboxyl group as one component such as polyol, polyisocyanate, and chain extender. In particular, a method in which a desired amount of carboxyl groups is introduced using a carboxyl group-containing diol depending on the amount of this component charged is preferred. For example, dimethylolpropionic acid, dimethylolbutanoic acid, bis- (2-hydroxyethyl) propionic acid, bis- (2-hydroxyethyl) butanoic acid and the like are copolymerized with a diol used for polymerization of a urethane resin. Can do. The carboxyl group is preferably in the form of a salt neutralized with ammonia, amine, alkali metal, inorganic alkali or the like. Particularly preferred are ammonia, trimethylamine and triethylamine. In such a polyurethane resin, a carboxyl group from which a neutralizing agent is removed in a drying step after coating can be used as a crosslinking reaction point by another crosslinking agent. Thereby, it is possible to further improve the durability, solvent resistance, water resistance, blocking resistance, and the like of the obtained coating layer, as well as excellent stability in a liquid state before coating.

  In the film of the present invention, the content of the acrylic resin or the urethane resin in the second coating layer cannot be unconditionally discussed because it depends on the refractive index of the acrylic resin or the urethane resin, but preferably 40% by weight or more. More preferably, it is the range of 50 weight% or more, More preferably, it is the range of 60 weight% or more. If it is less than 40% by weight, the total light transmittance may not be sufficiently improved.

  In the second coating layer in the film of the present invention, a polymer other than an acrylic resin or a urethane resin can be used in combination in order to improve the coating surface state and transparency. As the polymer used in combination, it is preferable not to use many polymers having a high refractive index in consideration of the influence on the total light transmittance.

  Specific examples of the polymer include polyester resin, polyalkylene glycol, polyalkyleneimine, methylcellulose, hydroxycellulose, and starches.

  Furthermore, it is also possible to use a crosslinking agent in the second coating layer as long as the gist of the present invention is not impaired. By using a cross-linking agent, the coating layer becomes strong, so that the heat and moisture resistance and the scratch resistance may be further improved. Examples of the crosslinking agent include melamine compounds, epoxy compounds, oxazoline compounds, isocyanate compounds, carbodiimide compounds, and the like. These cross-linking agents may be used alone or in combination of two or more. Furthermore, when consideration is given to application to in-line coating, it is preferable to have water solubility or water dispersibility.

  Further, the second coating layer may contain particles for the purpose of improving the blocking property and slipperiness of the coating layer, and inorganic particles such as silica, alumina and metal oxide, or organic particles such as crosslinked polymer particles. Etc.

  Furthermore, as long as the gist of the present invention is not impaired, the first coating layer and the second coating layer have an antifoaming agent, coating property improving agent, thickening agent, organic lubricant, antistatic agent, ultraviolet absorption as necessary. Agents, antioxidants, foaming agents, dyes, pigments and the like may be contained.

  Analysis of various components in the coating layer can be performed by surface analysis such as TOF-SIMS.

  When providing a coating layer by in-line coating, the above-mentioned series of compounds is applied as an aqueous solution or dispersion, and the coating solution adjusted to a solid content concentration of about 0.1 to 50% by weight as a guide is applied onto the polyester film. It is preferable to produce a laminated polyester film. Moreover, in the range which does not impair the main point of this invention, a small amount of organic solvents may be contained in the coating liquid for the purpose of improving dispersibility in water, improving film-forming properties, and the like. Only one type of organic solvent may be used, or two or more types may be used as appropriate.

  The thickness of the first coating layer of the laminated polyester film in the present invention is usually in the range of 0.002 to 1.0 μm, more preferably 0.02 to 0.5 μm, and further preferably 0.03 to 0.2 μm. . If the film thickness is less than 0.002 μm, sufficient adhesion may not be obtained, and if it exceeds 1.0 μm, the appearance, transparency, and film blocking properties may be deteriorated.

  The film thickness of the second coating layer of the laminated polyester film in the present invention is usually in the range of 0.04 to 0.15 μm, more preferably in the range of 0.06 to 0.13 μm. Since it depends on the refractive index of the coating layer, it cannot be said unconditionally. However, when the film thickness is out of this range, a high total light transmittance may not be obtained when a polarizing plate is used.

  In the present invention, as a method for providing the coating layer, a conventionally known coating method such as reverse gravure coating, direct gravure coating, roll coating, die coating, bar coating, curtain coating or the like can be used. Regarding the coating method, there is a description example in “Coating method” published by Yasuharu Harasaki in 1979.

  In the present invention, the drying and curing conditions for forming the coating layer on the polyester film are not particularly limited. For example, when the coating layer is provided by off-line coating, it is usually 3 to 40 at 80 to 200 ° C. The heat treatment may be performed for 2 seconds, preferably 100 to 180 ° C. for 3 to 40 seconds.

  On the other hand, when the coating layer is provided by in-line coating, heat treatment is usually performed at 70 to 280 ° C. for 3 to 200 seconds as a guide.

  Further, irrespective of off-line coating or in-line coating, heat treatment and active energy ray irradiation such as ultraviolet irradiation may be used in combination as required. The polyester film constituting the laminated polyester film in the present invention may be subjected to surface treatment such as corona treatment or plasma treatment in advance.

  When the laminated polyester film of the present invention is used as, for example, a protective film for a polarizing film in a polarizing plate, generally, the polarizing film is bonded to the first coating layer side through an adhesive for adhering the polarizing film. . As the adhesive, conventionally known ones can be used, for example, acrylic compounds such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl butyral and polybutyl acrylate, and epoxy having an alicyclic epoxy group exemplified by glycidyl group and epoxycyclohexane. System compounds and the like.

  For example, polyvinyl alcohol that is uniaxially stretched and dyed with iodine or the like is laminated as a polarizing film on the prepared adhesive layer. A protective film, a retardation film, or the like can be bonded to the opposite side of the polarizing film to form a polarizing plate. That is, when the laminated polyester film of the present invention is used for a polarizing plate, the layer configuration exemplified above is protective film / polarizing film / adhesive / first coating layer / polyester film / second coating layer.
