2. Description of the Related Art With the rapid progress of electronics technology, a large area called so-called giant microelectronics has been rapidly expanded centering on liquid crystal display devices, and it is possible to easily increase the area. Taking advantage of this, the expansion of optical applications of polymer films such as polarizing films, retardation films and transparent conductive films is remarkable. Polymer materials used for these purposes are selected from the viewpoint of long-term reliability such as heat resistance or humidity resistance when incorporated in equipment, and are widely known to polyester, polycarbonate, polysulfone, polyether sulfone, etc. The heat-resistant polymer material is used. However, since films made of these materials are formed by the melt extrusion method, defects such as die lines inevitably occur, and optical anisotropy due to molecular orientation is likely to occur, and film formation accuracy with respect to the film thickness. Has the drawback of being large.

On the other hand, when used for optical purposes, the optical properties of the film include the properties of the film itself,
Since the thickness has a great influence, the demands for not only the transparency of the film but also the uniformity of the thickness are becoming more severe. Therefore, the film that was initially supplied by the melt extrusion method has the characteristics that it is easy to obtain a film with little optical anisotropy and that the variation in thickness can be suppressed to a low level. Is being replaced by the film When a polymer material having high heat resistance is used, the solvent casting method is preferable also from the viewpoint of heat deterioration of the material, and a polymer having a glass transition point of 180 ° C. or higher such as polyarylate can be suitably used.

Further, in recent years, a large-sized display element using a super twisted twisted nematic (STN) type liquid crystal has attracted attention,
Widely used as a display element for personal computers and word processors. In order to correct undesired coloring due to the birefringence of the display element, the use of a retardation plate has spread, and in particular, a polymer film has been widely used. The polymer film is
It is a transparent film having birefringence obtained by uniaxially stretching an optically isotropic polymer film formed by a solvent casting method, and plays a role of compensating for retardation in a liquid crystal element. However, as the required display quality becomes higher, in-plane dispersion of the retardation due to minute unevenness of birefringence of the film and minute unevenness of the thickness of the film causes unevenness in the compensation performance. It has been pointed out that the image quality of the display element is deteriorated, and a retardation film with more improved retardation unevenness is required.

However, in the case of a casting film made of a heat-resistant polymer for optical use, the average height between adjacent peaks and valleys (thickness in the vicinity depends on the casting method and conditions). Change) is about 1% of the average film thickness. On the other hand, the thickness accuracy required from the optical characteristics is required to be higher, and it is the current situation that it has not reached a sufficient level. Further, in particular, at present, a retardation film which is sufficiently satisfied with respect to a high demand for reduction of retardation unevenness due to colorization has not been provided. The present invention provides a heat-resistant transparent film having excellent thickness accuracy and a method for producing a retardation film having improved retardation unevenness.

In the present invention, it is necessary to allow the surface modifier to be present in the dope obtained by dissolving the polymer material in the solvent. Surface modifiers are widely used for adjusting the coating surface when applying various coating agents.Acrylic, fluorine, and silicon surface modifiers are used as well as olefinic surfactants. It is used according to the purpose. In addition to the effect of improving the thickness accuracy, from the viewpoint of dope and dispersibility in the obtained film, the surface modifier is preferably a silicon compound, more preferably a compound having a dimethylpolysiloxane skeleton, and modified with a polyester residue. The polydimethylsiloxane-based surface conditioner is particularly effective. The polyester residue may have an aromatic residue such as a benzene ring or a polar group such as a hydroxyl group or a carboxyl group. The general formulas of typical polydimethylsiloxane surface conditioners are shown below.

When the surface modifier is used, a remarkable improving effect is obtained particularly for a film of polycarbonate and polyarylate. Excessive use of the surface conditioner does not improve the thickness accuracy, while excessive use causes cloudiness of the dope depending on the solvent used and also reduces the haze of the obtained film. Generally, it is selected from the range of 0.1 to 5 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polymer material,
The surface modifier may be present on the surface immediately after the dope casting,
It is preferably used near the saturated surface adsorption amount of the surface modifier. The surface conditioner added to the dope may be used alone or in combination of two or more, or may contain a solvent.

In order to maintain good thickness accuracy, it is important to optimize the casting conditions according to the equipment used.
Optimum values for the dope concentration, viscosity, line speed, etc. are determined according to the type and molecular weight of the material. As the industrial solvent casting method, a known method such as casting on an endless belt or a drum type film forming apparatus can be applied. The film that has been cast and dried until it is self-supporting is peeled off and post-dried in the vicinity of the glass transition for the purpose of completely drying the residual solvent and finely adjusting the optical properties.

The heat-resistant transparent film of the present invention preferably has an average thickness of 20 to 200 μm, more preferably 40.
Is about 120 μm. The optimum thickness is determined by the application used. Further, the heat-resistant transparent film of the present invention can be subjected to general film secondary processing such as adhesion processing and hard coating processing, if necessary. In particular, when the film of the present invention is used as a retardation film having optical anisotropy by thermal stretching, the thickness accuracy of the film of the present invention improves birefringence unevenness after stretching and is extremely useful. That is, the birefringence unevenness appears as color unevenness when it is used as a retardation film, but a sharp birefringence unevenness particularly in an adjacent portion has a high visibility and becomes a problem. Since the heat-resistant transparent film of the present invention has improved thickness unevenness particularly in the vicinity thereof, the effect of improving color unevenness when used as a retardation film is extremely large.
