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 which 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 the protective film, a triacetyl cellulose film (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a TAC film) is often used because it has high transparency and optical isotropy.

  However, the TAC film is inferior in dimensional stability and heat-and-moisture resistance, and has the disadvantage that the surface must be saponified with an alkaline solution in advance 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, the polyester film alone has a drawback that the adhesiveness between the polarizing film and the adhesive used for bonding the protective film is poor. In order to improve the adhesion of the polyester film, a configuration in which an anchor layer is provided has also been proposed, but there is no specific disclosure, and depending on the adhesive, it is difficult to ensure sufficient adhesion. (Patent Documents 3 to 5).

  Among the above compounds, when considering the color tone, a benzoxazinone-based compound which is difficult to be yellowed is preferably used. As an example thereof, a compound represented by the following general formula (1) is more preferably used. It is done.

In the above formula, R represents a divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group, and X ¹ and X ² are each independently selected from hydrogen or the following functional group group, but are not necessarily limited thereto.

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 to be contained in the laminated polyester film of the present invention is usually 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. The light transmittance at a wavelength of 380 nm can be adjusted by changing the type and amount of the above-described ultraviolet absorber.

  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 include inorganic particles such as magnesium, kaolin, aluminum oxide, and titanium oxide, and organic particles such as acrylic resin, styrene resin, urea resin, phenol resin, epoxy resin, and benzoguanamine resin. 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 0.01-5 micrometers normally, Preferably it is the range of 0.1-3 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, when the thickness exceeds 5 μm, the surface roughness of the film becomes too rough, and a defect may occur in a subsequent process.

  Furthermore, the content of particles in the polyester layer is usually in the range of 0.0001 to 5% by weight, preferably 0.0003 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 of 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 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 7.0 times, preferably 3.0 to 6.0 times. Next, the film is stretched in the direction perpendicular to the first stretching direction. In that case, the stretching temperature is usually 70 to 170 ° C., and the stretching ratio is usually 3.0 to 7.0 times, preferably 3.5 to 6 times. .0 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. Regarding the coating layer, it may be provided by in-line coating which treats the film surface during the process of forming a polyester film, or offline coating which is applied outside the system on a once produced film may be adopted. Since the coating can be performed simultaneously with the film formation, the production can be handled at a low cost, and therefore in-line coating is preferably used.

  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 the coating layer is provided on the polyester film by in-line coating, it is possible to apply at the same time as the film formation, and the coating layer can be processed at a high temperature in the heat treatment process of the polyester film after stretching. Performances such as adhesion to various surface functional layers that can be formed on the layer and heat-and-moisture resistance can be improved. Moreover, when coating before extending | stretching, the thickness of an application layer can also be changed with a draw ratio, and compared with offline coating, thin film coating can be performed more easily. That is, a film suitable as a polyester film can be produced by in-line coating, particularly coating before stretching.

  In the present invention, it is an essential requirement to have a coating layer containing polyvinyl alcohol, an oxazoline compound and a carbodiimide compound (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as a first coating layer) on a polyester film. is there.

  The first coating layer of the film of the present invention is a coating layer for improving adhesiveness with various functional layers. For example, various adhesives used for bonding the polarizing film and the laminated polyester film of the present invention together. It can be used to improve the adhesion with the agent.

  The present inventors examined polyvinyl alcohol for improving the adhesion with the adhesive layer, but the coating layer formed with polyvinyl alcohol alone had no adhesion. Then, when the combination of various materials was examined, it became clear that adhesiveness improved comparatively if it combined polyvinyl alcohol and an oxazoline type compound, and devised the composition ratio. However, it is not yet sufficient adhesiveness, and by further searching for a coating layer that improves adhesion by using in combination with these two types of compounds, surprisingly, by using a carbodiimide compound in combination, Adhesiveness was greatly improved and a coating layer usable for protecting a polarizing film was successfully formed.

  The polyvinyl alcohol contained in the first coating layer of the film of the present invention has a polyvinyl alcohol moiety, and includes, for example, modified compounds partially acetalized or butyralized with respect to polyvinyl alcohol. Known polyvinyl alcohol can be used. The degree of polymerization of polyvinyl alcohol is not particularly limited, but is usually 100 or more, preferably 300 to 40,000. When the degree of polymerization is less than 100, the water resistance of the coating layer may decrease. Moreover, the saponification degree of polyvinyl alcohol is not particularly limited, but a polyvinyl acetate saponified product in a range of 70 mol% or more, preferably 70 to 99.9 mol% is practically used.

Among these, 2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline is preferred because it is easily available industrially. The other monomer is not limited as long as it is a monomer copolymerizable with an addition polymerizable oxazoline group-containing monomer. For example, alkyl (meth) acrylate (the alkyl group includes a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, an isopropyl group, (meth) acrylic acid esters such as n-butyl group, isobutyl group, t-butyl group, 2-ethylhexyl group, cyclohexyl group); acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, crotonic acid, styrene Unsaturated carboxylic acids such as sulfonic acid and its salts (sodium salt, potassium salt, ammonium salt, tertiary amine salt, etc.); Unsaturated nitriles such as acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile; (meth) acrylamide, N-alkyl ( (Meth) acrylamide, N, N-dialkyl (meth) acrylamide, As the alkyl group, unsaturated amides such as methyl group, ethyl group, n-propyl group, isopropyl group, n-butyl group, isobutyl group, t-butyl group, 2-ethylhexyl group and cyclohexyl group); vinyl acetate Vinyl esters such as vinyl propionate; vinyl ethers such as methyl vinyl ether and ethyl vinyl ether; α-olefins such as ethylene and propylene; halogen-containing α, β-unsaturated monomers such as vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride and vinyl fluoride And α, β-unsaturated aromatic monomers such as styrene and α-methylstyrene, and the like, and one or more of these monomers can be used.

  Moreover, improvement in coating film strength and improvement in wet heat resistance can be expected when the number of hydrophilic groups such as polyalkylene glycol components is small and the amount of oxazoline groups is large.

The carbodiimide compound contained in the first coating layer of the film of the present invention refers to a compound having a carbodiimide structure and a reaction product after coating, and a surface functional layer such as a hard coat layer that can be formed on the coating layer. It is used for improving the adhesion to the coating layer and improving the heat and humidity resistance of the coating layer. The carbodiimide compound is a compound having one or more carbodiimide structures in the molecule and a reaction product thereof, but a polycarbodiimide compound having two or more in the molecule is more preferable for better adhesion and the like.

  The carbodiimide compound can be synthesized by a conventionally known technique, and generally a condensation reaction of a diisocyanate compound is used. The diisocyanate compound is not particularly limited, and any of aromatic and aliphatic compounds can be used.

  The content of polyvinyl alcohol in the first coating layer of the present invention is usually 10 to 80% by weight, preferably 10 to 60% by weight, and more preferably 20 to 50% by weight. If it is less than 10% by weight, the adhesiveness with the adhesive layer may not be sufficient due to a small amount of the polyvinyl alcohol component. Sexuality may not be sufficient.

  The content of the oxazoline-based compound in the first coating layer of the present invention is usually 10 to 80% by weight, preferably 10 to 60% by weight, and more preferably 15 to 50% by weight. If the amount is less than 10% by weight, the coating layer becomes brittle due to a small amount of the crosslinking component, and the heat-and-moisture resistance may decrease. And adhesiveness with the adhesive layer may not be sufficient.

The content of the carbodiimide compound in the first coating layer of the film of the present invention is usually 10 to 80% by weight, preferably 15 to 70% by weight, and more preferably 20 to 50% by weight.
When the amount is less than 10% by weight, the coating layer becomes brittle due to a small amount of the crosslinking component, and the heat-and-moisture resistance may be lowered. When the amount exceeds 80% by weight, the other component is small, and the adhesion to the polyester film is reduced. And adhesiveness with the adhesive layer may not be sufficient.
