Description

Polarizing film

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a polarizing film from a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film, and a manufacturing device.

Polarizing plates are widely used as polarizing elements in image display devices such as liquid crystal display devices. As the polarizing plate, a transparent resin film (protective film, etc.) is generally laminated on one side or both sides of a polarizing film using an adhesive or the like.

The polarizing film is mainly processed by immersing a raw film made of polyvinyl alcohol resin in a dyeing bath containing dichroic pigments such as iodine, and then immersing in a crosslinking bath containing a crosslinking agent such as boric acid. It is produced by uniaxially stretching the film at any stage. Uniaxial stretching includes dry stretching in the air, and wet stretching in the above-mentioned dye bath and crosslinking bath.

The cross-linked polarizing film tends to shrink when heated, and the durability may be insufficient. JP 2013-148806 A (Patent Document 1) discloses that the boron content of a polarizing film is as low as 1 to 3.5% by weight, and a polarizing film with excellent durability can be provided.

<Manufacturing method of polarizing film>

The polarizing film in the present invention is a polyvinyl alcohol resin film that is uniaxially stretched to adsorb and align a dichroic dye (iodine or dichroic dye). The polyvinyl alcohol-based resin constituting the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film is usually obtained by saponifying a polyvinyl acetate-based resin. The degree of saponification is usually about 85 mol% or more, preferably about 90 mol% or more, and more preferably about 99 mol% or more. The polyvinyl acetate resin may be, for example, a copolymer of vinyl acetate and other monomers copolymerizable therewith in addition to polyvinyl acetate which is a homopolymer of vinyl acetate. Examples of other copolymerizable monomers include unsaturated carboxylic acids, olefins, vinyl ethers, and unsaturated sulfonic acids. The degree of polymerization of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin is usually about 1,000 to 10,000, preferably about 1,500 to 5,000.

In addition, the treatment step is not limited to the method of immersing the film in the treatment bath as long as it is a method of contacting the film with the treatment liquid, and may be a method of treating the film by attaching the treatment liquid to the surface of the film by spraying, dripping, dripping, etc. method. When the treatment step is performed by the method of immersing the film in the treatment bath, the treatment bath for performing one treatment step is not limited to one, and the film can be sequentially immersed in two or more treatment baths to complete one treatment step.

Examples of the above-mentioned treatment liquid include a swelling liquid, a dyeing liquid, a cross-linking liquid, and a cleaning liquid. Next, as the above-mentioned treatment steps, for example, the swelling step of contacting the raw film with a swelling liquid to perform swelling treatment, the dyeing step of contacting the swelling treatment film with the dyeing solution and performing the dyeing treatment, and contacting and crosslinking the dyed film The cross-linking step of the cross-linking treatment is carried out in the liquid, and the cleaning step of the cleaning treatment is carried out by contacting the membrane after the cross-linking treatment with the cleaning solution.

Other processing steps can be added as needed.

In the present invention, after the crosslinking treatment and before the washing treatment, the electromagnetic wave irradiation step described after irradiating the film with electromagnetic waves is performed. By performing the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, a polarizing film with excellent optical properties can be obtained even if the boron content is low.

Hereinafter, an example of the manufacturing method of the polarizing film of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 1. Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing an example of the manufacturing method of the polarizing film of the present invention and the manufacturing apparatus of the polarizing film used therefor. The polarizing film manufacturing device shown in Figure 1 is as follows Formula: While the raw material (unstretched) film 10 composed of polyvinyl alcohol-based resin is continuously drawn out by the raw material roll 11, it is transported along the film transport path, thereby sequentially passing through the film transport path. Swelling bath (swelling liquid contained in the swelling tank) 13, dyeing bath (dyeing liquid contained in the dyeing tank) 15, the first cross-linking bath (first cross-linking liquid contained in the cross-linking tank) 17a, 2 The cross-linking bath (the second cross-linking liquid contained in the cross-linking tank) 17b, and the washing bath (the washing liquid contained in the washing tank) 19 are finally passed through the drying oven 21. The obtained polarizing film 23 can be directly transported, for example, to the following polarizing plate manufacturing step (a step of attaching a protective film to one or both sides of the polarizing film 23). The arrow in Figure 1 indicates the film transport direction.

In the description of Figure 1, "treatment tank" is a general term including swelling tank, dyeing tank, cross-linking tank and washing tank, and "treatment liquid" is a general term including swelling liquid, dyeing liquid, cross-linking liquid and washing liquid , "Treatment bath" is a general term including swelling bath, dyeing bath, cross-linking bath and washing bath. The swelling bath, the dyeing bath, the cross-linking bath, and the washing bath constitute the swelling part, the dyeing part, the cross-linking part, and the washing part in the manufacturing apparatus of the present invention, respectively.

In addition to the above-mentioned treatment bath, the film transport path of the polarizing film manufacturing device can be configured as follows: guide rollers 30 to 48, 60, 61 that can support the transported film or further change the film transport direction; can be pressed and clamped The nip rollers 50 to 55 that can hold the conveyed film and can apply driving force to the film through its rotation, or can further change the film conveying direction, are arranged at appropriate positions. Guide rollers or nip rollers can be arranged before and after each treatment bath or in the treatment bath, whereby the film can be introduced and immersed in the treatment bath, and pulled out from the treatment bath [refer to Figure 1]. For example, one or more guide rollers can be installed in each treatment bath The guide roller conveys the film, thereby allowing the film to be immersed in each treatment bath.

The polarizing film manufacturing apparatus shown in Figure 1 is equipped with nip rolls (nip rolls 50 to 54) before and after each treatment bath, so that the roll-to-roll extension can be implemented in any one or more treatment baths. A peripheral speed difference is applied between the nip rolls before and after the treatment bath, and longitudinal uniaxial stretching is performed.

In the polarizing film manufacturing apparatus shown in FIG. 1, the electromagnetic wave irradiation part 71 is arrange|positioned in the conveyance path downstream of the 2nd crosslinking bath 17b and the upstream of the washing bath 19, and an electromagnetic wave irradiation step is performed. The steps are explained below.

(Swelling step)

The purpose of the swelling step is to remove foreign matter on the surface of the raw film 10, remove the plasticizer in the raw film 10, impart easy dyeability, and plasticize the raw film 10, etc. The processing conditions are determined in a range that can achieve the purpose, and the raw film 10 does not cause defects such as extreme dissolution or devitrification.

Referring to Fig. 1, the swelling step can be implemented by the following method: while the raw film 10 is continuously drawn through the raw material roll 11, it is transported along the film transport path, and the raw film 10 is immersed in the swelling bath 13 for a predetermined time. Then pull it out. In the example of FIG. 1, between the raw film 10 being pulled out and immersed in the swelling bath 13, the raw film 10 is conveyed along the film conveyance path constructed by the guide rollers 60 and 61 and the nip roller 50. As shown in FIG. In the swelling process, it is transported along the film transport path constructed by the guide rollers 30 to 32 and the nip roller 51.

As the swelling liquid of the swelling bath 13, in addition to pure water, boric acid (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-153709), chloride (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 06-281816), Aqueous solutions of inorganic acids, inorganic salts, water-soluble organic solvents, alcohols, etc.

The temperature of the swelling bath 13 is, for example, about 10 to 50°C, preferably about 10 to 40°C, more preferably about 15 to 30°C. The immersion time of the raw film 10 is preferably about 10 to 300 seconds, more preferably about 20 to 200 seconds. In addition, when the raw material film 10 is a polyvinyl alcohol resin film stretched in gas in advance, the temperature of the swelling bath 13 is, for example, about 20 to 70°C, preferably about 30 to 60°C. The immersion time of the raw film 10 is preferably about 30 to 300 seconds, more preferably about 60 to 240 seconds.

During the swelling treatment, the raw material film 10 is likely to swell in the width direction to form wrinkles in the film. As one method for removing the wrinkles and transporting the film, the guide rollers 30, 31, and/or 32 use spreading rollers, spiral rollers, crown rolls, and other rollers that have a widening function. Or use other widening devices such as cross guiders, bending bars, tenter clips, etc. Another method for suppressing wrinkles is to implement extension treatment. For example, the difference in peripheral speed between the nip roll 50 and the nip roll 51 can be used to perform uniaxial stretching in the swelling bath 13.

During the swelling treatment, the film also swells and expands in the film conveying direction. Therefore, in order to eliminate film slack in the conveying direction when the film is not actively stretched, it is preferable to control the nip rollers 50 arranged before and after the swelling bath 13, for example. , 51 speed and other methods. In addition, for the purpose of stabilizing the transport of the membrane in the swelling bath 13, the water flow in the swelling bath 13 is controlled by washing in the water, or the EPC device (Edge Position Control device: a device that detects the end of the membrane and prevents the membrane from snake), etc. Department is useful.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, the film drawn from the swelling bath 13 is introduced into the dyeing bath 15 through the guide roller 32, the nip roller 51, and the guide roller 33 in this order.

(Dyeing step)

The purpose of the dyeing step is to adsorb and align the dichroic pigments on the polyvinyl alcohol resin film after the swelling treatment. The treatment conditions are determined in a range that can achieve the purpose without causing problems such as extreme dissolution or devitrification of the film. Referring to Figure 1, the dyeing step can be carried out along the film transport path constructed by the nip roller 51, the guide rollers 33 to 36 and the nip roller 52, and the swollen film is placed in the dyeing bath 15 (the processing of the dyeing tank) (Liquid) immersed for a predetermined time, and then pulled out and implemented. In order to improve the dyeability of the dichroic pigment, the film used in the dyeing step is preferably a film subjected to at least a certain degree of uniaxial stretching treatment, or it is preferable to replace the uniaxial stretching treatment before the dyeing treatment, or in addition to the one before the dyeing treatment. In addition to the uniaxial stretching treatment, the uniaxial stretching treatment is performed during the dyeing treatment.

When iodine is used as a dichroic pigment, an aqueous solution having a concentration of iodine/potassium iodide/water=about 0.003 to 0.3/about 0.1 to 10/100 can be used in the dyeing solution of dyeing bath 15, for example. Other iodides such as zinc iodide can be used instead of potassium iodide, or potassium iodide and other iodides can be used in combination. In addition, compounds other than iodide, such as boric acid, zinc chloride, cobalt chloride, etc., may coexist. When boric acid is added, it can be distinguished from the cross-linking treatment described later by the point of containing iodine, and if the aqueous solution contains about 0.003 parts by weight or more of iodine relative to 100 parts by weight of water, it can be regarded as dyeing bath 15. The temperature of the dye bath 15 when the film is dipped is usually about 10 to 45°C, preferably 10 to 40°C, more preferably 20 to 35°C, and the immersion time of the film is usually about 30 to 600 seconds, preferably 60 to 300 seconds.

Use water-soluble dichroic dyes as dichroic pigments At this time, an aqueous solution with a concentration of dichroic dye/water=approximately 0.001 to 0.1/100 can be used in the dyeing solution of the dyeing bath 15, for example. The dyeing bath 15 may coexist with a dyeing auxiliary agent, etc., and may also contain, for example, an inorganic salt such as sodium sulfate or a surfactant. Only one type of dichroic dye may be used alone, or two or more types of dichroic dyes may be used in combination. The temperature of the dye bath 15 when the film is immersed is, for example, about 20 to 80°C, preferably 30 to 70°C, and the immersion time of the film is usually about 30 to 600 seconds, preferably about 60 to 300 seconds.

In the dyeing step as described above, the film can be stretched uniaxially in the dyeing bath 15. The uniaxial stretching of the film can be performed by a method such as applying a peripheral speed difference between the nip roller 51 and the nip roller 52 arranged before and after the dyeing bath 15.

In the dyeing treatment, similar to the swelling treatment, in order to remove the wrinkles of the film and to transport the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film, the guide rollers 33, 34, 35 and/or 36 may use spreading rollers, spiral rollers, convex rollers, etc. For rolls with widening function, other widening devices such as cross guide rollers, bending bars, and tenter clips can also be used. As with the swelling treatment, another method for suppressing the generation of wrinkles is to perform an elongation treatment.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, the film drawn from the dyeing bath 15 passes through the guide roller 36, the nip roller 52, and the guide roller 37 in this order, and then is introduced into the cross-linking bath 17.

(Crosslinking step)

The purpose of the cross-linking step is to adjust the color tone (to prevent the film from appearing blue, etc.) by the water resistance of the cross-linking. In the example shown in Figure 1, two cross-linking baths are arranged as the cross-linking bath for the cross-linking step. The first cross-linking step performed for the purpose of water resistance is performed in the first cross-linking bath 17a to adjust the color tone as The second cross-linking step performed for the purpose is performed in the second cross-linking bath 17b. Refer to In Figure 1, the first cross-linking step can be transported along the film transport path constructed by the nip roller 52, the guide rollers 37 to 40 and the nip roller 53a, and the dyed film is placed in the first cross-linking bath 17a ( The first cross-linking liquid contained in the cross-linking tank) is immersed for a predetermined time, and then pulled out for implementation. In the second cross-linking step, the film after the first cross-linking step can be transported along the film transport path constructed by the nip roller 53a, guide rollers 41 to 44, and nip roller 53b, and the film after the first cross-linking step can be placed in the second cross-linking bath 17b (contained in The second cross-linking liquid in the cross-linking tank is immersed for a predetermined period of time, and then pulled out and implemented. Hereinafter, when referred to as a crosslinking bath, it contains both the first crosslinking bath 17a and the second crosslinking bath 17b, and when referred to as a crosslinking liquid, it also contains both the first crosslinking liquid and the second crosslinking liquid.

As a cross-linking liquid, it can be used in a solution in which a cross-linking agent is dissolved in a solvent. Examples of the crosslinking agent include boron compounds such as boric acid and borax, glyoxal, and glutaraldehyde. These may be one type or two or more types may be used in combination. As the solvent, for example, water can be used, and an organic solvent having compatibility with water may also be contained. The concentration of the cross-linking agent in the cross-linking solution, the temperature of the cross-linking bath, the film immersion time, and the number of cross-linking baths in which the film is immersed are not particularly limited, and can be appropriately selected from these to obtain the boron content. The polarizing film is 2.0 to 3.5% by weight. As the crosslinking liquid, for example, an aqueous solution containing 1 to 10 parts by weight of a boron compound such as boric acid can be used with respect to 100 parts by weight of water, and an aqueous solution containing 1.5 to 3 parts by weight is preferably used. When the dichroic dye used in the dyeing treatment is iodine, the crosslinking solution preferably contains iodide in addition to boric acid, and the amount of iodide can be, for example, 1 to 30 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of water. Examples of iodides include potassium iodide and zinc iodide. In addition, compounds other than iodide, such as zinc chloride, cobalt chloride, zirconium chloride, sodium thiosulfate, potassium sulfite, sodium sulfate, etc., may coexist.

In the cross-linking treatment, the concentration of boric acid and iodide and the temperature of the cross-linking bath 17 can be appropriately changed according to the purpose. For example, in the case of the first cross-linking liquid whose purpose of cross-linking treatment is to perform hydration resistance by cross-linking, the concentration may be an aqueous solution of boric acid/iodide/water=1 to 10/1 to 30/100 in terms of weight ratio. The temperature of the first crosslinking bath 17a when the film is immersed is usually about 50 to 70°C, preferably 53 to 65°C, and the immersion time of the film is usually about 10 to 600 seconds, preferably 20 to 300 seconds, more preferably For 20 to 200 seconds. In addition, when the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film stretched before the swelling treatment is sequentially dyed and the first cross-linking treatment is performed, the temperature of the first cross-linking bath 17a is usually about 50 to 85°C, preferably 55 to 80°C.

In the second crosslinking liquid for the purpose of adjusting the color tone, for example, when iodine is used as a dichroic dye, the concentration can be used in a weight ratio of boric acid/iodide/water=1 to 5/3 to 30/100. The temperature of the second crosslinking bath 17b when the film is immersed is usually about 10 to 45°C, and the immersion time of the film is usually about 1 to 300 seconds, preferably 2 to 100 seconds.

The cross-linking treatment can be carried out multiple times, usually 2 to 5 times. At this time, the composition and temperature of each crosslinking bath used can be the same or different. The cross-linking treatment to achieve water resistance through cross-linking and the cross-linking treatment to adjust the color tone can also be performed in plural steps, respectively.

The difference in peripheral speed between the nip roll 52 and the nip roll 53a can be used to perform uniaxial stretching in the first crosslinking bath 17a. In addition, the difference in peripheral speed between the nip roll 53a and the nip roll 53b may be used to perform uniaxial stretching in the second crosslinking bath 17b.

In the cross-linking treatment, similar to the swelling treatment, in order to remove The film is wrinkled and the polyvinyl alcohol resin film is transported. Expanding rolls, spiral rolls, convex rolls, etc. can be used on guide rolls 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, and/or 44 with widening functions. Other widening devices such as cross guide rollers, bending bars, tenter clips, etc. can also be used. As with the swelling treatment, another method for suppressing the generation of wrinkles is to perform a stretching treatment.

In the example shown in FIG. 1, the film drawn from the second crosslinking bath 17b passes through the guide roller 44 and the nip roller 53b in this order and is introduced into the washing bath 19.

(Washing step)

The example shown in Figure 1 includes a washing step after the cross-linking step. The purpose of the cleaning treatment is to remove the excess boric acid, iodine and other agents adhering to the polyvinyl alcohol resin film. The washing step is performed, for example, by immersing the crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film in the washing bath 19. Also, instead of the step of immersing the membrane in the washing bath 19, the washing step may be performed by spraying the membrane with the washing liquid as a washing bath, or by using both the immersion in the washing bath 19 and the washing liquid. Spray and proceed.

Fig. 1 shows an example in which a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film is immersed in a washing bath 19 and subjected to washing treatment. In the washing treatment, the temperature of the washing bath 19 is usually about 2 to 40°C, and the immersion time of the film is usually about 2 to 120 seconds. The conditions of the washing treatment may be appropriately selected so that the boron content of the polarizing film finally obtained is 2.0 to 3.5% by mass.

In addition, in the cleaning process, for the purpose of removing wrinkles and conveying the polyvinyl alcohol resin film, spreading rollers, spiral rollers, convex rollers, etc. can be used for guide rollers 45, 46, 47, and/or 48. For functional rolls, other widening devices such as cross guide rolls, bending bars, and tenter clips can also be used. In addition, in the film washing treatment, an elongation treatment to suppress the generation of wrinkles may be performed.

(Extension step)

As described above, the raw film 10 is subjected to wet or dry uniaxial stretching between the series of processing steps (that is, before and after any one or more processing steps and/or during any one or more processing steps). The specific method of uniaxial stretching treatment may be, for example, applying a circumferential speed difference between two nip rollers (for example, two nip rollers arranged before and after the treatment bath) constituting the film conveying path to perform longitudinal uniaxial stretching between the rollers, such as The hot roll stretching, tenter stretching, etc. described in Japanese Patent No. 2731813 are preferably stretching between rolls. The uniaxial stretching step may be performed multiple times between obtaining the polarizing film 23 from the raw film 10. As mentioned above, the stretching treatment is also beneficial to suppress the wrinkles of the film.

Based on the raw film 10, the final cumulative extension ratio of the polarizing film 23 is usually about 4.5 to 7 times, preferably 5 to 6.5 times. The extension step can be performed in any processing step. When the extension processing is performed in more than two processing steps, the extension processing can be performed in any processing step.

(Electromagnetic wave irradiation step)

In the apparatus shown in FIG. 1, after the film is drawn from the second crosslinking step 17b and passed through the nip roll 53b, the film is irradiated with electromagnetic waves before being immersed in the washing bath 19 (electromagnetic wave irradiation step). In the device shown in FIG. 1, electromagnetic waves are irradiated by the electromagnetic wave irradiation unit 71. The infrared radiation energy ratio of the electromagnetic wave system used in the electromagnetic wave irradiation step of the present invention with a wavelength exceeding 2 μm and below 4 μm is 25% or more of the total radiation energy, preferably 28% or more, and more preferably 35% or more. By irradiating the film with such electromagnetic waves, the optical properties of the obtained polarizing film can be improved. Also, regarding the electromagnetic wave used in the present invention, it exceeds 2μm The upper limit of the infrared radiation energy ratio with a wavelength of 4 μm or less is not particularly limited, but is, for example, 80% or less. Generally, electromagnetic waves with a wavelength of 0.75 μm to 1000 μm are called infrared rays.

In the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, by irradiating electromagnetic waves with a wavelength exceeding 2 μm and below 4 μm, the proportion of infrared radiation energy is 25% or more of the total radiation energy. The mechanism by which the optical properties of the polarizing film can be improved is not clear, but it is presumed that The movement of molecules in the film excited by infrared rays with a wavelength of 2μm and below 4μm promotes the immobilization of dichroic pigments such as iodine in the crosslinked film, thereby improving the optical properties of the polarizing film.

Figure 2 shows the radiation energy spectrum of various types of electromagnetic wave irradiators. In addition, Table 1 shows the ratio of the electromagnetic wave radiation energy to the total radiation energy in each wavelength domain (expressed in the range of wavelength x μm) of various types of electromagnetic wave irradiators. The electromagnetic wave irradiators shown in Figure 2 and Table 1 are halogen heaters (heat source temperature 2600°C), short-wavelength infrared heaters (heat source temperature 2200°C), fast response medium-wavelength infrared heaters (heat source temperature 1600°C), carbon Heater (heat source temperature 1200°C), carbon heater (heat source temperature 950°C), and mid-wavelength infrared heater (heat source temperature 900°C).

[Table 1]

As shown in Table 1, due to the short-wavelength infrared heater (heat source temperature 2200℃), the rapid response medium-wavelength infrared heater (heat source temperature 1600°C), carbon heater (heat source temperature 1200°C), carbon heater (heat source temperature 950°C), and mid-wavelength infrared heater (heat source temperature 900°C). The proportion of infrared radiation energy exceeding 2μm and wavelengths below 4μm is all The radiated energy is more than 25%, so it can be applied as an electromagnetic wave irradiator constituting the electromagnetic wave irradiator 71. The electromagnetic wave irradiation unit 71 may be constituted by one electromagnetic wave irradiator, or may be constituted by a plurality of electromagnetic wave irradiators. When it is composed of a plurality of electromagnetic wave irradiators, select a plurality of electromagnetic wave irradiators so that the infrared radiation energy radiated by the multiple electromagnetic wave irradiators with a wavelength exceeding 2 μm and below 4 μm is the total amount of the electromagnetic waves radiated by the multiple electromagnetic wave irradiators More than 25% of the radiated energy. In addition, in Figure 1, the electromagnetic wave irradiator 71 is configured to irradiate electromagnetic waves to only one surface of the film, but it is also possible to arrange multiple electromagnetic wave irradiators to irradiate electromagnetic waves to both surfaces of the film. The electromagnetic wave irradiation section 71 is preferably configured to irradiate electromagnetic waves to the entire width direction of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film to be irradiated.

In the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, the electromagnetic wave is preferably irradiated from the upper side in the vertical direction with respect to the film surface. In addition, in the electromagnetic wave irradiating part 71, the distance between the electromagnetic wave radiation port of the electromagnetic wave irradiator and the film is preferably 2 to 40 cm, more preferably 5 to 20 cm. However, the distance is preferably selected and performed appropriately in consideration of the radiation energy amount of the electromagnetic wave radiated from the electromagnetic wave irradiator, the temperature of the film surface, and the like. The film surface temperature during electromagnetic wave irradiation is preferably maintained at 30 to 90°C, and more preferably maintained at 40 to 80°C.

In the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, the electromagnetic wave irradiation heat per unit volume of the film can usually be 100 J/cm ³ or more and 50 kJ/cm ³ or less. In the viewpoint of improving the optical characteristics of the polarizing film, it is preferably 100J / cm ³ or more, more preferably 500J / cm ³ or more, and more preferably 1000J / cm ³ or more. In addition, from the viewpoint of suppressing film deterioration due to temperature rise, the radiation heat of electromagnetic waves per unit volume of the film is preferably 10 kJ/cm ³ or less, more preferably 5000 J/cm ³ or less, and still more preferably 3000 J/cm ³ or less. Generally, the reduction of the moisture content of the film is proportional to the radiation heat of the electromagnetic wave, but the purpose of the electromagnetic wave irradiation step of the present invention is not to reduce the moisture content of the film, so the radiation heat can be appropriately selected, preferably within the above range. .

In the present invention, by performing the electromagnetic wave irradiation step before the washing treatment, the optical properties of the obtained polarizing film can be improved. The electromagnetic wave irradiation step may be performed on the film immersed in at least one crosslinking bath, and as shown in Fig. 1, it is not limited to the film immersed in all the crosslinking baths. That is, in the example shown in Figure 1, the film immersed in the first cross-linking bath and before the second cross-linking bath can be irradiated with electromagnetic waves, and the film immersed in the second cross-linking bath can also be irradiated with electromagnetic waves. step. However, the electromagnetic wave irradiation step can crosslink the boric acid that enters the film due to immersion in the crosslinking bath. Therefore, the electromagnetic wave irradiation step for the film immersed in the crosslinking bath can more effectively crosslink the boric acid. Better.

The irradiation of electromagnetic waves is preferably performed within 10 seconds after the film is drawn from the crosslinking bath, and more preferably within 5 seconds. The shorter the time from the drawing out of the crosslinking bath to the irradiation of electromagnetic waves, the more improved the optical properties of the polarizing film caused by electromagnetic wave irradiation. Furthermore, in the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, it is preferable that there are fewer water molecules attached to the surface of the film. If there are water molecules on the surface of the film, the water molecules on the surface of the film will absorb infrared rays, thus reducing the effect of electromagnetic wave irradiation to stimulate the movement of molecules in the film. After pulling out from the cross-linking bath The cross-linking liquid will adhere to the surface of the film, so it is preferable to set a liquid removal method to remove it before the electromagnetic wave irradiation step. In Fig. 1, the nip roller 53b also has the function of a liquid removing method for removing the cross-linking liquid adhering to the film surface. In addition to the liquid method, in addition to the nip roller, there is also a method of blowing air to the film to remove the liquid, and a doctor blade that contacts the film to remove the liquid can also be used.

From an economic point of view, if the film processing speed is relatively high, specifically, when the processing speed is 10 to 100 m/min as the faster processing speed, the electromagnetic wave irradiation time may be short and the irradiation heat may be insufficient. The corresponding method is to install a plurality of electromagnetic wave irradiators in parallel, so that sufficient heat can be irradiated.

(Drying step)

It is preferable to dry the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film after the washing step. The drying of the film is not particularly limited, and the drying oven 21 can be used as in the example shown in FIG. 1. For the drying furnace 21, for example, one equipped with a hot air dryer can be used. The drying temperature is, for example, about 30 to 100°C, and the drying time is, for example, about 30 to 600 seconds. The treatment of drying the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film can be performed with a far-infrared heater. The thickness of the polarizing film 23 obtained by the above method is, for example, about 5 to 30 μm.

The obtained polarizing film can be wound into a wound roll in sequence and formed into a roll form, or it can be directly used for the polarizing plate manufacturing step (in the step of single-side or two-area layer protective film of the polarizing film) without being wound.

(Other processing steps for polyvinyl alcohol resin film)

Processing other than the above processing can be added. Examples of additional treatment include: immersion in a boric-acid-free iodide aqueous solution after the cross-linking step Treatment (complementary color treatment), and treatment (zinc treatment) in which it is immersed in an aqueous solution that does not contain boric acid but contains zinc chloride.

<Polarizing Film>

By manufacturing the polarizing film by the above method, a polarizing film satisfying the following can be obtained:

i) The boron content is 2.0 to 3.5% by weight,

ii) Visual sensitivity correction monomer penetration rate (Ty) is above 42.0%,

iii) The visual sensitivity corrected polarization (Py) is above 99.990%,

iv) the wavelength of 480nm in the absorption axis direction of polarizing film A ratio of absorbance A ₄₈₀ absorbance and the absorption axis A of the polarizing film in a wavelength of 600nm _{600 480} / A ₆₀₀ of 0.75 to 1.00.

When the boron content of the polarizing film is as described in i) above, the shrinkage force can be suppressed. The boron content of the polarizing film is more preferably 2.0 to 3.0% by weight. The shrinkage force of the polarizing film is preferably 3.8N/2mm or less, more preferably 3.5N/2mm or less. The boron content and shrinkage force of the polarizing film here are measured in accordance with the method described in the examples described later.

In general, by increasing the boron content of the polarizing film to, for example, 3.8% by weight or more, high optical properties can be obtained. However, it is difficult to obtain excellent optical characteristics while the boron content of the polarizing film is as low as i) above. In the manufacturing method of the present invention, by having an electromagnetic wave irradiation step, a polarizing film that satisfies the above i) and satisfies the above ii) and the above iii) and has excellent optical characteristics can be obtained. The visual sensitivity correction monomer transmittance (Ty) and the visual sensitivity correction polarization (Py) of the polarizing film here are measured according to the method described in the following examples.

Furthermore, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, as the electromagnetic wave used in the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, by using the electromagnetic wave whose radiation energy ratio of the infrared radiation with a wavelength exceeding 2 μm and below 4 μm is 25% or more of the total radiation energy, A polarizing film that satisfies the characteristics of the above iv) and is close to the excellent hue of neutral gray is obtained. Blue is intense when A ₄₈₀ /A _{600 is} less than 0.75, and red is intense when A ₄₈₀ /A ₆₀₀ exceeds 1.00. In order to suppress red, A ₄₈₀ /A _{600 is} preferably 0.90 or less. That is, by the manufacturing method of the present invention, it is possible to obtain a polarizing film with excellent optical properties that reduces the boron content of the polarizing film as in the above i), suppresses the shrinkage force, and at the same time satisfies the characteristics of the above ii) to iv) .

<Polarizer>

A protective film is attached to at least one side of the polarizing film manufactured by the above method via an adhesive, thereby obtaining a polarizing plate. The protective film may include, for example, a film composed of cellulose acetate resin such as cellulose triacetate or cellulose diacetate; Film composed of polyester resin such as butylene formate; polycarbonate resin film, cycloolefin resin film; acrylic resin film; film composed of chain olefin resin of polypropylene resin.

In order to improve the adhesion between the polarizing film and the protective film, corona treatment, flame treatment, plasma treatment, ultraviolet radiation, primer coating treatment, saponification treatment, etc. can be applied to the bonding surface of the polarizing film and/or protective film. deal with. The adhesive used for bonding the polarizing film and the protective film may include an active energy ray curable adhesive such as an ultraviolet curable adhesive, an aqueous solution of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin, or an aqueous solution in which a crosslinking agent is blended, and Carbamate Water-based adhesives such as ethyl ester emulsion adhesives. The ultraviolet curing adhesive may be a mixture of an acrylic compound and a photo-radical polymerization initiator, or a mixture of an epoxy compound and a photo-cationic polymerization initiator, or the like. In addition, a cationic polymerizable epoxy compound and a radical polymerizable acrylic compound may be used in combination, or a photocationic polymerization initiator and a photoradical polymerization initiator as initiators may be used in combination.

[Example]

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.

<Example 1>

The polarizing film of Example 1 was manufactured from the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film using the manufacturing apparatus shown in Fig. 1. Specifically, a long strip of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) raw film with a thickness of 60μm [Kuraray Co., Ltd. product name "Kuraray Vinylon VF-PE#6000", average polymerization degree 2400, saponification degree 99.9 mol% or more] It was continuously transported while being pulled out from the coil, and immersed in a swelling bath containing 30°C pure water for a residence time of 79 seconds (swelling step). After that, the film pulled out from the swelling bath is immersed in a 30°C dyeing bath containing iodine with a potassium iodide/boric acid/water ratio of 1/0.3/100 (weight ratio) for a residence time of 123 seconds (dyeing step). Next, the film drawn from the dyeing bath is immersed in the first cross-linking bath at 53°C at a ratio of 11/2.0/100 (weight ratio) of potassium iodide/boric acid/water with a residence time of 44 seconds, and then immersed in potassium iodide/boric acid/water. The second cross-linking bath at 40°C of 11/2.0/100 (weight ratio) was immersed in a residence time of 6 seconds (cross-linking step). In the dyeing step and the cross-linking step, longitudinal uniaxial stretching is performed by stretching between rolls in the bath. The total stretching ratio based on the raw film is 5.65 times.

Next, for the film drawn from the second cross-linking bath 17b and passed through the nip roll 53b, an electromagnetic wave irradiator (medium-wavelength infrared heater (MW heater), product name: Golden 8 Medium-wave twin tube emitter, manufactured by Heraeus) is used , The heat source temperature is 900℃, the maximum energy density is 60kW/m ² ), the electromagnetic wave radiation port is placed 5cm away from the film surface, and the maximum radiation output of the electromagnetic wave irradiator is to output 50% of the electromagnetic wave. The radiation heat of electromagnetic wave per unit volume of the film is 490J/cm ³ . In addition, the radiation heat of electromagnetic waves per unit volume of the film is calculated by the following formula.

(Electromagnetic wave irradiation heat per unit volume of the film) = ((Maximum energy density) × (heater heating surface area) × output (%) / (electromagnetic wave irradiation area)) × (electromagnetic wave irradiation time) ÷ (film thickness)

Output (%) refers to the ratio (%) of the output of the actual irradiation to the maximum irradiation output of the electromagnetic wave irradiator.

After being pulled out from the second cross-linking bath 17b, the time required from transporting the film to reaching the irradiation position of the electromagnetic wave irradiator and irradiating electromagnetic waves is 5 seconds.

The film irradiated with electromagnetic waves was immersed in a washing bath 19 containing pure water at 5°C for a residence time of 3 seconds (washing step). Thereafter, the film was dried in the drying oven 21 at a temperature of 60° C. and an absolute humidity of 11 g/cm ³ to obtain a polarizing film. The thickness of the obtained polarizing film was 23 μm.

<Examples 2 to 6, Comparative Examples 3, 4>

In the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, the type and output (%) of the electromagnetic wave irradiator, the electromagnetic wave irradiation heat per unit volume of the film, the weight parts of boric acid relative to 100 parts by weight of the water of the first crosslinking bath and the second crosslinking bath are set As shown in Table 2, except for this point, the same operation as in Example 1 was performed to obtain a polarizing film. The thickness of the obtained polarizing film is 23 μm. As an electromagnetic wave irradiator, you can use: halogen heater (product name: straight tube halogen heater lamp QIR, manufactured by Ushio Lighting Co., Ltd., heat source temperature 2600°C, maximum energy density 300kW/m ² ), short-wavelength infrared Heater (SW heater) (product name: Golden 8 Short-wave twin tube emitter, manufactured by Heraeus, heat source temperature 2200℃, maximum energy density 200kW/m ² ), high-speed response medium-wavelength infrared heater (FRMW heater) (Product name: Golden 8 Medium-wave fast response twin tubu emitter, manufactured by Heraeus, heat source temperature 1600°C, maximum energy density 150kW/m ² ), medium wavelength infrared heater (MW heater) (product name: Golden 8 Medium -wave twin tube emitter, manufactured by Heraeus, with a heat source temperature of 900°C and a maximum energy density of 60kW/m ² ).

<Comparative Examples 1, 2, 5>

Except that the electromagnetic wave irradiation step is not performed, and the weight parts of boric acid relative to 100 parts by weight of water in the first crosslinking bath and the second crosslinking bath are set as shown in Table 2, the same as in Example 1 Ground application to obtain a polarizing film. The thickness of the obtained polarizing film was 23 μm.

〔Evaluation of Polarizing Film〕

(a) Measurement of monomer transmittance and polarization

For the polarizing film obtained in each example and each comparative example, a spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere (manufactured by JASCO Corporation "V7100") was used to measure the MD transmittance and TD transmittance in the wavelength range of 380 to 780 nm , Calculate the monomer transmittance and polarization in each wavelength according to the following formula.

Single penetration rate (%)=(MD+TD)/2

Polarization (%)=((MD-TD)/(MD+TD))×100

"MD transmittance" refers to the transmittance when the direction of polarized light emitted by Glan Thomson is parallel to the penetration axis of the polarizing film sample. The above formula is expressed as "MD". In addition, "TD transmittance" refers to the transmittance when the direction of polarized light emitted by the Glan-Thomson film is orthogonal to the transmittance axis of the polarizing film sample. The above formula is expressed as "TD". The obtained monomer transmittance and polarization are corrected by the visual sensitivity of the 2 degree field of view (C light source) of JIS Z 8701: 1999 "Color Representation Method-XYZ Color System and X ₁₀ Y ₁₀ Z _{10 Color System", and} Calculate the single transmittance (Ty) of the visual sensitivity correction and the degree of polarization (Py) of the visual sensitivity correction. Table 2 shows the calculation results of the visual sensitivity correction monomer transmittance (Ty) and the visual sensitivity correction polarization (Py).

(b) Measurement of absorbance of polarizing film

Use a spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere ("V7100" manufactured by JASCO Corporation). _{Specifically, using the TD transmittances TD 480} and TD ₆₀₀ in the wavelength of 480 nm and the wavelength of 600 nm, according to the following formula:

A ₄₈₀ =-log ₁₀ (TD ₄₈₀ /100)

A ₆₀₀ =-log ₁₀ (TD ₆₀₀ /100)

Calculate the absorbance A _{480 at the wavelength of 480 nm and the absorbance A 600} at the wavelength of 600 nm. Table 2 shows _{the calculated values of absorbance A 480} , absorbance A ₆₀₀ , and the ratio A ₄₈₀ /A ₆₀₀ calculated based on these values.

(c) MD contractility

From the obtained polarizing film, a measurement sample with a width of 2 mm and a length of 10 mm with the absorption axis direction (MD, extension direction) as the long side was cut. Set the sample in the thermal mechanical analysis device manufactured by SII NanoTechnology Co., Ltd. (TMA) "EXSTAR-6000", while maintaining a fixed size, measure the shrinkage force (MD shrinkage force) in the longitudinal direction (absorption axis direction, MD) generated when kept at 80°C for 4 hours. Table 2 shows the values of the measured contractile force.

(d) Boron content of polarizing film

After adding 0.2 g of the polarizing film to 170 ml of pure water and completely dissolving it at 95°C, 30 g of a mannitol aqueous solution (12.5% by weight) was added as a sample solution for measurement. Here, until the sample solution for measurement reaches the neutralization point, an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 mol/l) is dropped, and the boron content (% by weight) in the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film is calculated from the dropping amount according to the following formula.

Boron content (% by weight) = 1.08 × the amount of sodium hydroxide aqueous solution dripping (ml) / weight of the polarizing film (g)

Table 2 shows the values of the measured boron content.

[Table 2]

As shown in Table 2, the polarizing film systems of Examples 1 to 6 satisfy:

i) The boron content is 2.0 to 3.5% by weight,

ii) Visual sensitivity correction monomer penetration rate Ty is above 42.0%,

iii) The visual sensitivity corrected polarization Py is above 99.990%,

iv) the wavelength of 480nm in the absorption axis direction of polarizing film A ratio of absorbance A ₄₈₀ absorbance and the absorption axis A of the polarizing film in a wavelength of 600nm _{600 480} / A ₆₀₀ is 0.75 to 1 or less. Furthermore, by satisfying the above i), the contractile force can be suppressed, and by satisfying the above iv), there is no problem with the hue. The polarizing film of Comparative Example 1 did not carry out the electromagnetic wave irradiation step, but was the one with a lower value of the visual sensitivity corrected polarization degree (Py).

The polarizing film of Comparative Example 2 does not satisfy the above i), so the shrinkage force is large. The polarizing film of Comparative Example 3 has a _{value of A 480} /A ₆₀₀ exceeding 1, so the red color is strong. Comparative Examples 4 and 5 have insufficient boron content, so the value of the visual sensitivity corrected polarization (Py) is lower.
