Description of the Invention: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a film, and more particularly to a thin polarizing film and a method of manufacturing the same. [Prior Art] In recent years, since liquid crystal display devices are widely used in electronic products such as word processors, mobile phones, or liquid crystal televisions, the demand for related components: polarized light has been increasing, in particular, after the popularization of home audio-visual entertainment devices. This has created a trend in large-size LCD TVs. Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the development of thin and large-area polarizing films to meet market demand. At present, the 'polyethylene glycol polarizing film is roughly divided into three categories, the first type is filled with $w' and the second type is a dichromatic dye containing a dichroic dye (diehrc>ie coffee). Partially dehydrated polyvinyl alcohol film. The above-mentioned broken poly-ethylene film has the highest optical transmittance film because of the (4) single and has better optical properties. Generally, the partial filament is composed of an extended polyvinyl alcohol film and at least, for example, triacetic acid. Fiber (8) anal mail =: TAC) consists of a protective layer, wherein the stretched and dyed poly-wife is 20 to 35 microns, the stretching ratio is about 5 to 6, and the most common is η 2:, these are thicker, The polarizing film with narrow width and low stretching ratio is greatly detrimental == availability, which is not cost-effective. Even before and after stretching, the degree of polarization is more than 2 to 2.5, which is completely unable to meet the needs of large-sized panels.

However, there is little discussion on how to increase the yield, visibility or thickness reduction of the polarizing film. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method to reduce the thickness, increase the stretching ratio and width to improve the material utilization. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a film comprising: placing a film on a surface in a water tank containing a double (four) and stretching it. The present invention further provides a method as described above. The above-mentioned objects and features of the present invention will be more apparent and understood. The following detailed description of the preferred embodiments, together with the accompanying drawings, will be described in detail below. " The invention provides a film obtained by placing a film having a hydroxyl group on a surface in a water tank containing a dicarboxylic acid and stretching it. The film having a hydroxyl group on the surface may be a polyethylene. The film forming step of the invention further comprises swelling and dyeing the film. When dyeing, the film may be dyed by an eucalyptus solution containing a broken molecular ionic ion, and the percentage of heavy mites of the middle moth knife is substantially between 膜. · 〇1~〇•丄.Between 〆〇, iodine is 0659- A21197TWF(N2); M05023; DAVID. The weight percentage of 1273105 is generally between 0.1 and 10%. The above dicarboxylic acid can be carbon number 4 ~6 of a dicarboxylic acid, such as adipic acid, in a water tank (extending trough) solution, the weight percentage is generally between 1 and 10%, preferably between 2 and 5%. The tank further includes a transition metal ion such as zinc ion, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or boric acid, wherein the weight percentage of the transition metal ion is generally between 0.1 and 3%, and the weight percentage of boric acid is substantially between 1 and 3%. The operating temperature of the stretching tank is generally controlled between 40 and 60 degrees Celsius. ί The present invention replaces the conventional boric acid with a dicarboxylic acid as a molecule bonded to the surface of the polyvinyl alcohol film (see Fig. 1), due to the double The carboxylic acid has a hydrophilic acid-based end, which is very accommodating It is easy to form an ester bond with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the polyvinyl alcohol film, and the skeleton of the long carbon chain (4 to 6 carbons) is spatially rotatable and curved, and can be increased compared with the conventional unbaked boric acid. The toughness and ductility of the monolithic material are such that they do not easily break during stretching, contributing to the production of a thinner polarizing film. Furthermore, in order to improve chemical reactivity, tensile properties of the film, and prevention of color loss, the present invention g also adding other additives such as transition metal ions, strong acids or boric acid to the stretching tank. The invention extends the groove by changing, for example, operating temperature, film path, pinch speed in the tank, dicarboxylic acid concentration or additive concentration. The parameter is obtained to obtain a polarizing film having a small thickness, a wide width, and a high stretching ratio. After the polarizing film is completed, the present invention may further comprise at least one layer of, for example, triacetyl cellulose (TAC), polyester (PET) 0659-A21197TWF (N2); M05023; DAVID 7 1273105 or An optical film of borneol thin (pQlyn() rb_ne) is applied to the polarizing film. The present invention further provides a film produced by the above method, which is applicable to various liquid crystal displays, for example, to a screen display of a GPS system of a vehicle. The polarizing film of the scaled human I-I stretch has a stretching ratio (Streichingrati〇) of generally between 6 and 9, and a thickness of substantially between 1 〇 and 2 〇 micrometers, and the dryness ratio before and after stretching is large. The magic f is between 4 and 8, and the width ratio before and after stretching is generally between 1.5 and 2.
