FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a flexible image display device according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a flexible image display device according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a flexible image display device according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

The flexible image display device of the present invention includes a window member, a first member laminated on the window member, a first laminate or a first panel member with a touch sensor laminated on the window member via the first member, and a plurality of Layer adhesive components. The first laminate system is a laminate of the second member laminated across the first member and the 3A member laminated across the first member and the second member on the window member.

When the flexible image display device includes the first laminate, one of the first member and the second member is an optical film, and the other is an optical film or a touch sensor. 3A member contains at least the surface plate member. In this case, the plurality of layers of the adhesive member includes at least three layers arranged at the following positions: between the window member and the first member, between the first member and the second member, and between the second member and the 3B member.

When the flexible image display device includes the first panel member with a touch sensor, the first member is an optical film. At this time, the plurality of layers of adhesive members include at least two layers disposed at the following positions: between the window member and the first member, and between the first member and the first panel member with the touch sensor attached.

In addition, the present invention also includes an optical laminate used in the above-mentioned flexible image display device. The optical laminate includes a window member, a first member laminated on the window member, a second laminate or a first separator laminated on the window member via the first member, and a plurality of layers of adhesive members. The second laminate system is a laminate of the second member laminated across the first member and the 3B member laminated across the first member and the second member on the window member.

When the optical layered body includes the second layered body, one of the first member and the second member is an optical film, and the other is an optical film or a touch sensor. The 3B member includes at least the second separator. The plurality of layers of adhesive members include at least three layers disposed at the following positions: between the window member and the first member, between the first member and the second member, and between the second member and the 3B member.

When the optical layered body includes the first separator, the first member is an optical film. In this case, the plurality of layers of the adhesive member includes at least two layers arranged at the following positions: between the window member and the first member, and between the first member and the first separator.

The optical layered product can be used for a flexible image display device in a state where the separator (specifically, the first separator or the second separator included in the 3B member) has been peeled off. The said flexible image display apparatus contains the optical laminated body in the state which peeled off the separator in the state which arrange|positioned the window member on the viewing side.

In the above-mentioned flexible image display device and optical laminate, when the elastic modulus (GPa) of the window member is E0 and the thickness (mm) of the window member is T0, E0×T0≦0.32. The product of elastic modulus and thickness (=E0×T0) shows the degree of toughness (or hardness) of the window member. In addition, the unit of E0×T0 is kN/mm.

In the flexible image display device, the surface on the side of the window member is the viewing side, and is used in an exposed state. Therefore, high damage resistance is required for the surface on the side of the window member. The damage resistance of the surface on the window member side can be evaluated by, for example, a pencil hardness test. However, it is obvious that even if only the window member can obtain high pencil hardness, when the flexible image display device is fabricated by laminating other members (such as optical films and touch sensors) through the adhesive member, the surface on the window member side is The pencil hardness of the surface will still be greatly reduced. The adhesive member is different from the bonding member by hardening, and has high adhesiveness even in the state of bonding the members. Therefore, when there is an adhesive member in the flexible image display device, the stress is relieved by the adhesive member when pressing the surface on the side of the window member, but the adhesive member is deformed at this time, so that the pressing mark is not easy to return to its original shape, and the damage resistance is reduced. When the optical layered product has a plurality of layers of adhesive members, this reduction in damage resistance becomes more significant. On the other hand, in the case of the hardened adhesive member, stress relaxation as in the case of the adhesive member hardly occurs, and the damage resistance is hardly lowered. In a flexible image display device, high flexibility is required for the constituent members, so we believe that the influence of the adhesive member with high viscosity on the pencil hardness is likely to be obvious.

In addition, the adhesive member is a hardened adhesive, which is not fluid. On the other hand, the adhesive member is a non-hardening adhesive which has fluidity.

When the scratch resistance of the surface on the side of the window member is improved, the flexibility of the optical laminate or the flexible image display device tends to decrease. Even if the flexible image display device with high damage resistance on the surface on the side of the window member is repeatedly flexed at room temperature (20° C. to 35° C.), peeling between the laminated members is unlikely to occur. However, it is known that when the flexible image display device is repeatedly flexed in a high temperature environment (eg, 60° C.), peeling occurs between members of the laminated layers, and high adhesion cannot be ensured.

In the flexible image display device and the optical laminate of the present invention, when E0×T0≦0.32, the thickness of the adhesive member (hereinafter referred to as the first adhesive member) arranged between the window member and the first member is 10 μm or less . Furthermore, among the plural layers of adhesive members included in the flexible image display device or the optical laminate, the thickness of at least one layer other than the first adhesive member is made to satisfy the condition of 18 μm or more. By making the first adhesive member When the thickness is 10 μm or less, regardless of whether the flexible image display device and the optical laminate have at least three layers or at least two layers of adhesive members, the deformation of the adhesive members is reduced when the surface on the side of the window member is pressed. As a result, high damage resistance (more specifically, high pencil hardness) of the surface on the window member side can be ensured. Moreover, by using at least 3 layers or at least 2 layers of an adhesive member, the high flexibility of an optical laminated body can also be ensured. In addition, by making the thickness of at least one layer of the adhesive member other than the first adhesive member to be 18 μm or more, even if it is repeatedly flexed in a high temperature environment, peeling between the laminated members can be suppressed. That is, high adhesiveness can be ensured even in a high temperature environment.

In the flexible image display device of the present invention, high pencil hardness can be ensured, that is, the pencil hardness on the window member side is harder than F. Moreover, in the flexible image display device of the present invention, a high pencil hardness of H or more can be ensured on the window member side.

In addition, in this specification, pencil hardness means the scratch hardness (pencil method) prescribed|regulated to JISK5600-5-4:1999. Pencil hardness can be measured in accordance with JIS K 5600-5-4: 1999 under the conditions of a load of 750 g and a temperature of 25°C.

The hardness of each member in the flexible image display device including the window member or the optical laminate can be adjusted, for example, by adjusting the material, layer composition and/or thickness of each member.

(adhesive member)

An optical laminate or a flexible image display device includes a plurality of layers of adhesive members. More specifically, when the flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) includes the first laminate (or the second laminate), the flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) includes at least three of the following positions: Laminated members: between the window member and the first member, between the first member and the second member, and between the second member and the 3A member (or the 3B member). When the flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) is provided with the first panel member with the touch sensor (or the first separation member), the plurality of layers of adhesive members shall have at least two layers of adhesive members arranged in the following positions: the window Between the member and the first member, and between the first member and the first panel member (or the first separate member) with the touch sensor attached. The multiple layers of adhesive members may also include adhesives other than the 3-layer or 2-layer adhesive members that are arranged between the adjacent members member. Adhesive members other than the above-mentioned 3-layer or 2-layer adhesive members are arranged in each member other than the window member (specifically selected from the first member, the second member, the 3A member (or the 3B member) and the first member. in at least one member of the group of panel members with touch sensors). Each adhesive member is generally layered. The number of adhesive members in each member is not particularly limited, and may be 0 layers, 1 layer, or 2 or more layers. As described above, the adhesive members (ie, the plurality of layers of adhesive members) contained in the flexible image display device or the optical laminate include both the adhesive members contained between adjacent members and the adhesive members contained in each member.

The adhesive member contained in the flexible image display device or the optical laminate may be, for example, 8 layers or less, 7 layers or 6 layers or less, or 5 layers or 4 layers or less.

The thickness of the first adhesive member is 10 μm or less, and may be 8 μm or less or 6 μm or less. In the present invention, when the product of the elastic modulus E0 (GPa) of the window member and the thickness T0 (mm) of the window member is E0×T0≦0.32, by making the thickness of the first adhesive member within the range, then Regardless of the type of material constituting each adhesive member, high pencil hardness can be ensured on the window member side of the flexible image display device.

From the viewpoint of easily securing higher flexibility of the flexible image display device, the thickness of each layer of the adhesive member is preferably 3 μm or more, preferably 5 μm or more, and may be 8 μm or more, 10 μm or more, or 13 μm or more. .

In the plurality of layers of adhesive members, the thickness of at least one layer of adhesive members other than the first adhesive member is 18 μm or more, and may be 20 μm or more. In the present invention, when the product of the elastic modulus E0 (GPa) of the window member and the thickness T0 (mm) of the window member is E0×T0≦0.32, by setting the thickness of at least one layer of adhesive members other than the first adhesive member Within this range, even if the flexible image display device is repeatedly flexed in a high-temperature environment, high adhesion between members to be laminated can be ensured. The thickness of at least one layer of the adhesive member other than the first adhesive member may be 50 μm or less, 40 μm or less, or 30 μm from the viewpoint of easily securing higher damage resistance on the surface on the window member side of the flexible image display device. the following.

Among the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member, at least one layer of the adhesive member may have a thickness of 18 μm or more (or 20 μm or more). Among the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member, the thicknesses of at least two layers of the adhesive members may be 18 μm or more or 20 μm or more. From the viewpoint of easily securing higher damage resistance, the thickness of the adhesive member having the above-mentioned thickness may be 50 μm or less, 40 μm or less, or 30 μm or less.

From the viewpoint of ensuring higher adhesion, the thickness of the adhesive member located on the outer side is 18 μm or more (or 20 μm or more) than the adhesive member located on the inner side in the state where the flexible image display device is bent. favorable.

Among the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member, the thicknesses of the remaining adhesive members are not particularly limited. From the viewpoint of flexibility as described above, the thickness of the remaining adhesive member may be, for example, 3 μm or more, 5 μm or more, 8 μm or more, 10 μm or more, or 13 μm or more. The thickness of the remaining adhesive members may be 50 μm or less, 40 μm or less, or 30 μm or less.

In addition, in the flexible image display device, there is a surface on the first member side of the window member and a touch sensor or a panel member with a touch sensor (specifically, the first or second touch sensor attached panel member). Between the panel members of the detector), a decorative layer is provided in contact with any layer of adhesive members. If the thickness of the adhesive member in the part where the decorative layer is provided is small, it is difficult to absorb the height difference caused by the decorative layer by the adhesive member. Therefore, from the viewpoint of easily absorbing the height difference caused by the decorative layer, the thickness of the adhesive member with which the decorative layer is in contact may be set to 10 μm or more. In the present invention, since the thickness of the first adhesive member is small, the decorative layer is provided on the surface of the first member on the second member side or the first member from the viewpoint of easily absorbing the height difference caused by the decorative layer. Inside is more beneficial.

From the viewpoint of easily absorbing the height difference caused by the decorative layer, the thickness of the adhesive member in contact with the decorative layer can be set to be more than 1.5 times the thickness of the decorative layer, and can also be set to more than 2 times or more than 2.5 times, and more. It can be set to 3 times or more.

The upper limit value and the lower limit value of the thickness of the layer of the above-mentioned adhesive member can be arbitrarily combined.

The thickness of the adhesive member is measured by cutting a cross section of the flexible image display device or the optical laminate, and using an image obtained by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) from the cross section. The thickness of the adhesive member In the SEM image of the above-mentioned cross section, the thickness of the part where the decoration layer is not formed is measured at arbitrary plural places (for example, 5 places) and obtained by averaging.

The storage elastic modulus of each adhesive member at 25° C. is generally 10 MPa or less, and may be 3 MPa or less, 2 MPa or less, or 1.5 MPa or less. The storage elastic modulus of each adhesive member at 25° C. is preferably 1 MPa or less, and may be 0.3 MPa or less or 0.2 MPa or less, and may also be 0.15 MPa or less or 0.1 MPa or less. When the storage elastic modulus of the adhesive member is within the above-mentioned range, not only high adhesiveness can be ensured, but also, unlike the case of the adhesive member after hardening, the stress caused by pressing is easily relieved, and the pencil hardness is easily reduced. According to the present invention, even when the flexible image display device includes a plurality of layers of the adhesive member that easily relieves stress caused by pressing, high pencil hardness can be ensured by controlling the thickness of the first adhesive member. The storage elastic modulus of each adhesive member at 25° C. may be 0.001 MPa or more, and may also be 0.005 MPa or more.

The upper limit value and the lower limit value of the storage elastic modulus of the above-mentioned adhesive member can be arbitrarily combined.

On the other hand, the storage elastic modulus of the subsequent component at 25° C. is greater than 10 MPa, and may be more than 100 MPa, generally about 1 GPa. In this specification, the following member means one having the storage elastic modulus.

In this way, the adhesive member can be distinguished from the adhesive member by storing the elastic modulus.

The storage elastic modulus of the adhesive member can be measured in accordance with JIS K 7244-1:1998. Specifically, first, a molded product having a thickness of about 1.5 mm was produced using an adhesive member. This molded product was punched out into a disk shape with a diameter of 7.9 mm to prepare a test piece. This test piece was sandwiched between parallel plates, and a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring device (for example, "Advanced Rheometric Expansion System (ARES)" manufactured by Rheometric Scientific Corporation) was used to measure the viscoelasticity under the following conditions, and the storage elastic modulus at 25°C was obtained. In addition, the storage elastic modulus of the subsequent components can also be obtained according to the conditions of the adhered components.

(measurement conditions)

Deformation Mode: Twist

Measurement frequency: 1Hz

Measuring temperature: -40℃~+150℃

Heating rate: 5°C/min

From the viewpoint of ensuring high visibility of the panel member, the total light transmittance of each adhesive member is preferably 85% or more, more preferably 90% or more.

The total light transmittance of the adhesive member can be measured in accordance with JIS K 7136K:2000. The measurement can be used for a test piece obtained by arranging an adhesive member to a thickness of about 1.5 mm on an alkali-free glass (thickness 0.8 to 1.0 mm, total light transmittance 92%).

Each of the adhesive members is composed of an adhesive. The type of adhesive is not particularly limited, for example, acrylic adhesive, rubber-based adhesive, polysiloxane-based adhesive, urethane-based adhesive, vinyl alkyl ether-based adhesive, polyvinyl pyrrole Peridone-based adhesives, polyacrylamide-based adhesives, and cellulose-based adhesives, etc. Adhesives may include, for example, base polymers, cross-linking agents, additives (such as tackifiers, coupling agents, polymerization inhibitors, cross-linking retarders, catalysts, plasticizers, softeners, fillers, colorants, metals Powder, UV absorbers, light stabilizers, antioxidants, anti-deterioration agents, surfactants, antistatic agents, surface lubricants, leveling agents, antiseptics, particles of inorganic or organic materials (metal compound particles (metal oxides) material particles, etc.), resin particles, etc.)), but not limited thereto.

When an adhesive capable of obtaining the storage elastic modulus as described above is used as the adhesive, it is advantageous because the effect brought about by controlling the thickness of the adhesive member is apt to be remarkable. In a plurality of layers of adhesive members, the adhesives constituting the adhesive members of at least two layers may be the same, and the adhesives constituting the respective adhesive members may also be different.

The adhesive members can be formed by, for example, applying an adhesive constituting each adhesive member to one of the members sandwiching each adhesive member, or transferring an adhesive that has been formed into a sheet shape. Then, by laminating the other of the members holding each of the adhesive members on the adhesive member, each of the adhesive members is arranged between the members. Even in the case where the adhesive member is included in each member, the adhesive member is arranged in each member according to the state in which the adhesive member is arranged between each member. For example, between the layers (or laminates) that constitute each member and sandwich the adhesive member In one aspect, the adhesive member is arranged by applying or transferring the adhesive as described above, and the other layer (or laminate) is attached to the adhesive member, thereby arranging the adhesive member in each member.

(window widget)

In order to prevent damage to the optical film, the touch sensor, the panel member with the touch sensor, and the panel member, the window member is arranged on the outermost surface of the flexible image display device or the optical laminate on the viewing side.

When the product of the elastic modulus E0 and the thickness T0 of the window member is E0×T0≦0.32, the properties of the adhesive member (which refers to the first adhesive member) included in the flexible image display device or the optical laminate will affect the side of the window member. the pencil hardness of the surface. In addition, the thickness of at least one layer of the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member affects the adhesion between the laminated members (or between the layers constituting each member) when the flexible image display device is repeatedly flexed in a high temperature environment. In the present invention, by controlling the thickness of the first adhesive member as described above, a high pencil hardness can be secured on the surface on the window member side. Moreover, by controlling the thickness of at least one layer other than the first adhesive member as described above, high adhesiveness can be ensured even in a high temperature environment.

The window member is generally provided with a window film. High flexibility (high interchangeability, etc.), high transparency (high total light transmittance, low haze, etc.) and high hardness are required for flexible image display devices or optical laminates applied thereto. The material of the window film is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies these physical properties.

As a window film, a transparent resin film is mentioned, for example. The resin constituting the transparent resin film can be, for example, selected from the group consisting of polyimide-based resins, polyamide-based resins, polyester-based resins, cellulose-based resins, acetate-based resins, styrene-based At least one of oxygen-based resins, polyolefin-based resins, polyetheretherketone-based resins, sulfide-based resins, vinyl alcohol-based resins, urethane-based resins, acrylic resins, and polycarbonate-based resins. However, the resin constituting the transparent resin film is not limited by these.

The thickness of the window film is, for example, 20 μm or more and 500 μm or less, and may be 30 μm or more and 200 μm or less. When the window film has the thickness described above, both high strength and high flexibility can be easily achieved.

In this specification, with respect to materials or members (molded bodies) other than the adhesive member or the adhesive, the term "transparent" means that the test piece has a total light transmittance of 80% or more. Measurement of total light transmittance A test piece with a thickness of about 1.5 mm made of a transparent material or member can be used. The total light transmittance can be determined according to the condition of the adhesive member.

The window member may also be provided with a hard coating. The hard coat layer is preferably provided at least on the side opposite to the first member side of the window member from the viewpoint of easily obtaining the effect of preventing breakage of the window film. More specifically, the hard coat layer is preferably provided at least on the surface of the window film on the side opposite to the first member side (that is, the viewing side of the window film).

The thickness of the hard coat layer is, for example, 1 μm or more and 100 μm or less, and may be 1 μm or more and 50 μm or less. When the window member is provided with a plurality of hard coat layers, the thickness of each hard coat layer may be set to the above-mentioned range.

The hard coat layer is formed by applying a hardening coating agent to the surface of a layer (eg, a window film) serving as a base and hardening it.

As the coating agent, for example, an optical film application can be used. Coating agents include, for example, acrylic-based coating agents, melamine-based coating agents, urethane-based coating agents, epoxy-based coating agents, polysiloxane-based coating agents, and inorganic-based coating agents. subject to such restrictions.

The coating agent may also contain additives. Examples of additives include silane coupling agents, colorants, dyes, powders or particles (pigments, inorganic or organic fillers, particles of inorganic or organic materials, etc.), surfactants, plasticizers, antistatic agents, surface lubricants agents, leveling agents, antioxidants, light stabilizers, ultraviolet absorbers, polymerization inhibitors, antifouling materials, etc., but not limited thereto.

The window component may also have other layers (hereinafter referred to as layer A) as required. As the layer A, for example, an antireflection layer, an antiglare layer, an antifouling layer, an antiadhesive layer, a hue adjustment layer, an antistatic layer, an easy adhesion layer, a layer for preventing precipitation of ions or oligomers, an impact absorbing layer, an anti-scattering layer can be mentioned. layer etc. The window member may include one layer A, or may include a plurality of layers. The layer A is provided, for example, on the surface side or the first member side of other layers or laminates (eg, window films) constituting the window member. Layer A may be directly formed by coating or the like on other layers or laminates constituting the window film, or may be laminated through an adhesive member. In addition, the window member does not contain adhesive members. exist Here, the adhesive member refers to an adhesive member having a storage modulus of elasticity at 25° C. as described above.

The thickness T0 of the window member is, for example, 0.02 mm or more and 0.6 mm or less, or 0.03 mm or more and 0.3 mm or less.

The thickness T0 of the window member is obtained by cutting a cross-section of the flexible image display device or the optical laminate, and is measured using an image obtained by SEM from the cross-section. The thickness T0 is obtained by measuring the thickness at arbitrary plural places (for example, five places) in the above-mentioned SEM cross-sectional image and averaging.

In addition, in this specification, the thickness of the member which comprises an optical laminated body or a flexible image display apparatus is calculated|required according to the thickness T0 of a window member.

The elastic modulus E0 of the window member is, for example, 0.53GPa or less and 16GPa or less, or 1GPa or more and 15GPa or less, 1GPa or more and 10GPa or less, or 3GPa or more and 8GPa or less.

The elastic modulus E0 (GPa) of the window member is an average value (arithmetic average value) obtained by preparing three samples for measurement of the window member, measuring the elastic modulus of each sample by a tensile test and averaging the values. The tensile test can be performed under the following conditions using the following apparatus.

Tensile testing machine: (stock) Shimadzu Corporation, Autograph AG-1S

Control: Stroke

Punctuation distance: 100mm

Stretching speed: 50mm/min

Elastic modulus calculation range: 10N/mm ² ~20N/mm ²

In addition, the sample for elastic modulus measurement was produced as follows. First, the elastic modulus of the length and width of the window member is measured. Next, the window member was cut into a short tab shape so that the length in the direction with a high elastic modulus was 150 mm and the length in the direction with a low elastic modulus was 10 mm, thereby producing a sample. For the cutting of the window member, for example, a multipurpose test piece cutting machine manufactured by DUMBBELL CO., LTD. can be used.

E0×T0 (kN/mm) may be 0.32 or less as long as it is 0.3 or less. Moreover, E0×T0 is, for example, 0.01 or more, and may be 0.02 or more, 0.05 or more, 0.1 or more, or 0.2 or more. These upper limits are the same as The lower limit value can be combined arbitrarily.

(1st member and 2nd member)

In the flexible image display device and the optical laminate, the first member is laminated on the window member. When the flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) includes the first laminate (or the second laminate), the second member is laminated on the window member via the first member. Between the window member and the first member, and between the first member and the second member, the adhesive member is interposed, respectively. When the flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) includes the first laminate (or the second laminate), one of the first member and the second member is an optical film, and the other is an optical film or touch control sensor. The flexible image display device (or the optical laminate) may include a 3A member (or a 3B member), and one of the first member and the second member is an optical film, and the other is a touch sensor.

0.01≦E2×T2≦0.35(Second member)

In addition, the unit of each of E1×T1 and E2×T2 is kN/mm.

(optical film)

Optical films are films that impart optical functions. Generally, an optical film is a laminate including at least one layer having an optical function. The optical film is used in the field of image display devices and the like. Each of the first member and the second member may be an optical film, or may be a stack of one layer or two or more layers constituting the optical film layer body.

As a layer which has an optical function, the layer which has optical anisotropy (for example, an optically anisotropic thin film) is mentioned, for example. Examples of the layer having optical anisotropy include, but are not limited to, polarizers, retardation layers, viewing angle widening films, viewing angle limiting (privacy) films, brightness enhancement films, and optical compensation films. The layered product of two or more layers may have two or more layers selected from these layers having optical anisotropy. The layered product of two or more layers may be one in which all the layers having optical anisotropy have different functions, or may be one in which at least two layers have the same function. For example, the laminated body may include a polarizer and a retardation layer, or may include two retardation layers having different compositions.

The optical film may also include at least one layer with an optical function and a substrate layer (or a protective layer for protection) maintaining the layer. For example, the polarizing plate may have at least a film-shaped polarizer and be composed of the polarizer and a protective film for protecting the polarizer.

The polarizer is not particularly limited, and what is used in the field of image display devices and the like can be used. The polarizer includes, for example, a film in which a dichroic substance is adsorbed to a hydrophilic polymer film and uniaxially stretched, and a polyene-based alignment film. Examples of the hydrophilic polymer constituting the hydrophilic polymer film include polyvinyl alcohol-based resins (including partially formalized polyvinyl alcohol-based resins) and partially saponified products of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers. As a dichroic substance, iodine and a dichroic dye are mentioned, for example. The material constituting the polyene-based oriented film includes, for example, a dehydration-treated product of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin, and a dehydrochlorination-treated product of a polyvinyl chloride-based resin.

As the polarizer, a thin polarizer with a thickness of 10 μm or less can also be used. Examples of thin polarizers include Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 51-069644, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-338329, International Publication No. 2010/100917 Handbook, Japanese Patent No. 4691205, and Japanese Patent No. 4751481. The polarizers described. A thin polarizer can be obtained by, for example, a manufacturing method including a step of extending in a state where a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin layer and a resin base material are laminated, and a step of dyeing with a dichroic dye.

The protective film can use, for example, transparency, mechanical strength, thermal stability, moisture barrier properties And a polymer film with excellent optical isotropy. As a polymer material having such properties, the protective film contains, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of cellulose-based resins, polyolefin-based resins (including cyclic polyolefin-based resins), acrylic-based resins Resins, imide resins (including phenylmaleimide resins), polyamide resins, polycarbonate resins, polyester resins (including polyarylate resins), acetates Resins, polyether resins, polyvinyl chloride resins, polyvinylidene chloride resins, polystyrene resins, polyvinyl alcohol resins, sulfide resins (for example, polyphenylene sulfide resins), polyethers Ether ketone resin, epoxy resin and urethane resin. However, the resin constituting the protective film is not limited by these polymer materials.

The optical film may contain one protective film, or may contain two or more protective films. The protective film can be arranged on one surface of the layer with optical function (eg polarizer), and can also be arranged on both surfaces. In addition, the optical film may include two or more layers having an optical function in which a protective film is arranged on one surface thereof. When the optical film contains two or more protective films (for example, when the protective films are arranged on both surfaces of the polarizer), the compositions of all the protective films may be different from each other, or at least two protective films may have the same composition.

In addition to the polarizer or the polarizer, the optical film may further include another film (hereinafter referred to as layer B) that imparts optical functions other than the polarizer or the polarizer. The layer B may be used, for example, in the field of image display devices or the like. Layer B can also be, for example, an optically anisotropic film. As the layer B, among the above-mentioned layers having optical anisotropy, those other than the polarizer and the polarizer can be mentioned. Specifically, as the layer B, a retardation layer, a viewing angle widening film, a viewing angle limiting (privacy protection) film, a brightness enhancement film, and an optical compensation film can be mentioned, for example. The optical film may contain the layer B described above in one layer, or may contain two or more layers. However, Tier B is not subject to such restrictions.

The thickness of the optical film is, for example, 5 μm or more and 500 μm or less, and may be 10 μm or more and 100 μm or less.

The thickness of the polarizing plate is, for example, 200 μm or less. From the viewpoint of easily securing high flexibility, the thickness of the polarizing plate is preferably 100 μm or less, and more preferably 80 μm or less or 70 μm or less. The thickness of the polarizing plate is, for example, 10 μm or more.

The thickness of the layer B is, for example, 0.1 μm or more and 100 μm or less. When the polarizer does not have a protective film (that is, when the layer B also functions as a protective film), it is advisable to adjust the thickness of the laminate of the layer B and the polarizer within the range described for the thickness of the polarizer. Thickness of layer B.

In addition, the layer constituting the optical film may be directly laminated on the adjacent layer by coating or the like. Moreover, the layer which comprises an optical film can also be laminated|stacked on the adjacent layer through an adhesive member or an adhesive member. For example, the layer B may be laminated on the polarizing plate through an adhesive member, or may be laminated through an adhesive member. Moreover, when two or more layers of adjacent layers B are provided, the adjacent layers B may be laminated through either an adhesive member or an adhesive member.

(touch sensor)

The touch sensor can be used, for example, in the field of image display devices. The touch sensor can be, for example, a resistive film type, a capacitive type, an optical type or an ultrasonic type, but is not limited thereto. In the flexible image display device and the optical laminate, when there is an optical film between the touch sensor and the window member, if a capacitive touch sensor is used, high sensitivity can be easily obtained.

Capacitive touch sensors generally have a transparent conductive layer. Such a touch sensor may be, for example, a laminate of a transparent conductive layer and a transparent substrate. As a transparent base material, a transparent film is mentioned, for example.

The transparent conductive layer is not particularly limited, and conductive metal oxides, metal nanowires, and the like can be used. The metal oxide includes, for example, indium oxide (ITO: Indium Tin Oxide) containing tin oxide, and tin oxide containing antimony. The transparent conductive layer can also be a conductive pattern composed of metal oxide or metal. The shape of the conductive pattern can be, but not limited to, stripes, squares, lattices, and the like.

The surface resistance value of the transparent conductive layer is, for example, 0.1Ω/□ or more and 1000Ω/□ or less, or 0.5Ω/□ or more and 500Ω/□ or less.

The thickness of the transparent conductive layer is, for example, 0.005 μm or more and 10 μm or less, or may be 0.01 μm or more and 3 μm or less.

As the transparent film, for example, a transparent resin film can be used. Examples of resins constituting the transparent resin film include polyester-based resins (including polyarylate-based resins), acetate-based resins, polyether-based resins, and polycarbonates. resin, polyamide resin, polyimide resin, polyolefin resin, acrylic resin, polyvinyl chloride resin, polyvinylidene chloride resin, polystyrene resin, polyvinyl alcohol resin , sulfide-based resins (eg, polyphenylene sulfide-based resins), polyether ether ketone-based resins, cellulose-based resins, epoxy-based resins, urethane-based resins, and the like. The transparent resin film may contain one of these resins, or two or more of them may be contained. Among these resins, polyester-based resins, polyimide-based resins and polyether-based resins are preferred. However, the resin constituting the transparent resin film is not limited to these resins.

From the viewpoint of improving the adhesion between the transparent conductive layer and the transparent substrate, the transparent substrate may also be surface-treated. For the surface treatment, known ones can be used. Furthermore, if necessary, before laminating the transparent conductive layer, the transparent substrate may be subjected to, for example, dust removal or cleaning treatment (cleaning treatment with a solvent or ultrasonic waves, etc.).

The touch sensor may also be provided with a transparent conductive layer and other layers other than the transparent substrate (hereinafter referred to as layer C) as required. For example, an undercoat layer or an oligomer precipitation preventing layer may be provided as the layer C between the transparent conductive layer and the transparent substrate. Moreover, the layer C may also be layered on the surface area of at least one of the transparent conductive layer and the transparent substrate. As the layer C, a functional layer having a desired function (for example, the above-mentioned optical function imparting film (optical anisotropic film, etc.), the above-mentioned optical function layer), a decorative base film, and the like can be mentioned. The additional decorative substrate film is laminated on the surface of the transparent conductive layer, for example. However, Tier C is not limited by these tiers. The layer C can also be laminated on the transparent conductive layer or the transparent substrate through an adhesive member or an adhesive member as required.

The thickness of the entire touch sensor is, for example, 5 μm or more and 250 μm or less, or 10 μm or more and 200 μm or less.

The 3A member and the 3B member may include an adhesive member or an adhesive member, respectively.

The 3A member should just contain a panel member at least. The 3A member may be, for example, a laminate of a panel member and a protective member that protects the panel member. When the 3A member includes a protective member, the protective member is generally laminated on the opposite side of the panel member from the second member side. That is, the protective member is provided on the side opposite to the viewing side of the panel member. However, these are only examples, and the 3A component is not limited by them. When the 3A member is a laminated body, the adjacent layers (or members, such as a panel member and a protective member) constituting the laminated body may be laminated through an adhesive member or an adhesive member.

Let the modulus of elasticity (GPa) of the 3A member be E3, and let the thickness (mm) of the 3A member be T3. Member 3A should satisfy the following formula.

0.01≦E3×T3≦0.35

With regard to the 3A member, when the product of the elastic modulus and the thickness is within the above-mentioned range, the effect of controlling the thickness of the adhesive member as described above can be more easily obtained. In addition, the unit of E3×T3 is kN/mm.

The 3B member in the optical layered body should just contain at least a separator. The 3B member may be constituted only by the separator. The 3B member is laminated with the second member such that the separator is in contact with the adhesive member disposed on the opposite side of the second member from the first member side. Then, after peeling the separator from the optical laminate, the exposed adhesive member is attached to the 3A member (specifically, the panel member or the laminate including the panel member), thereby forming a flexible image display device.

(Panel member)

The panel member includes at least an image display panel, for example. A sealing member (film sealing layer etc.) may be arrange|positioned at the viewing side of an image display panel. The sealing member is generally disposed directly on the surface on the viewing side of the image display panel.

(protection member)

The protective member includes, for example, a sheet or film (or substrate) that maintains or protects the panel member. The protective member should just have moderate strength for maintaining and protecting the panel member, and moderate flexibility so as not to hinder the flexibility of the flexible image display device. As the protective member, a resin sheet or the like can be used. The material of the resin sheet is not particularly limited, for example, it can be appropriately selected according to the type of the image display panel.

(Panel component with touch sensor)

The panel components with touch sensor (specifically, the first panel component with touch sensor and the second panel component with touch sensor included in component 3A, respectively) are touch sensing The device is integrated with the panel components. The panel structure with touch sensor also includes a capacitive touch sensor with metal mesh electrodes formed on a thin film sealing layer of an organic light emitting diode (OLED: Organic Light Emitting Diode). By. The touch sensor can also refer to the above description.

The panel member includes at least an image display panel, for example. A sealing member (film sealing layer etc.) may be arrange|positioned at the viewing side of an image display panel. The sealing member is generally disposed directly on the surface on the viewing side of the image display panel.

The image display panel can use a well-known thing. The image display panel can be, for example, an electroluminescence (EL: Electro Luminescence) panel.

The panel member with the touch sensor may also have a protective member. The protective member includes, for example, a sheet or film (or substrate) that maintains or protects the panel member. The protective member should just have moderate strength for maintaining and protecting the panel member, and moderate flexibility so as not to hinder the flexibility of the flexible image display device. As the protective member, a resin sheet or the like can be used. The material of the resin sheet is not particularly limited, for example, it can be appropriately selected according to the type of the image display panel.

Let the modulus of elasticity (GPa) of the panel member with the touch sensor be Ep, and let the thickness (mm) of the panel member with the touch sensor be Tp. At this time, the panel member with the touch sensor should satisfy the following formula.

0.01≦Ep×Tp≦0.35

For the panel member with the touch sensor, when the product of the elastic modulus and the thickness is within the range, it is easier to obtain the effect of controlling the thickness of each adhesive member to the above-mentioned effect. In addition, the unit of Ep×Tp is kN/mm.

(separate part)

As the separator (specifically, the first separator and the second separator included in the 3B member, respectively), for example, a release sheet including a base sheet and a release agent disposed on at least one surface of the base sheet can be used . The separator is arranged in a state where the release agent is in contact with the adhesive member. More specifically, the first separator is arranged in a state of being in contact with the adhesive member arranged on the side opposite to the window member of the first member. On the other hand, the second separator is arranged in a state of being in contact with the adhesive member arranged on the side of the second member opposite to the side of the first member.

The base material sheet may be any one that can maintain a structure excluding the first separator or the 3B member of the optical laminate, and has moderate strength and flexibility, and can easily form a release agent layer. As the base sheet, a resin film, paper, or a laminate of these can be used. The material of the base sheet can be determined according to the type of the release agent, the composition of the optical laminate, and the like. As the resin film, for example, polyester films (polyethylene terephthalate films, etc.) and polyolefin films (polypropylene films, etc.) can also be used. The thickness of the substrate sheet is also not particularly limited, and can be selected in consideration of desired releasability. A known release agent can be used, and it is preferable to select the one with less residual amount of the adhesive member to the separator. For example, a polysiloxane-based release agent and a fluorine-based release agent can also be used.

(decoration layer)

The decorative layer is, for example, on the window member and the touch sensor or the panel member with the touch sensor (specifically, the first panel member with the touch sensor or the second panel member with the touch sensor. Panel members), arranged in contact with any layer of adhesive members. For example, the surface of the window member on the first member side, the first laminate side of the first member, or the surface of the panel member side (or the first separate member side) with the first touch sensor can also be used as the second member. When the member is an optical film, a decoration layer is provided on any one of the surfaces on the 3A member side (or the 3B member side) of the second member. Also, when at least one of the first member and the second member includes an adhesive member, the A decorative layer may be disposed in contact with the adhesive member. The decorative layer is generally arranged in a frame-like pattern on the outer periphery of the display portion that displays the image, so as to prevent the guide wiring of the driving element or the touch sensor from being visually recognized from the outside. However, the shape of the decorative layer is not limited to the frame shape, and may be any shape that can shield the guide wiring and the like.

For the decorative layer, in addition to not reflecting the light from the viewing side, it is also required to shield the light from the side opposite to the viewing side. Such a decorative layer may be constituted by, for example, an ink layer, a metal film, or a film containing metal fine particles. The metal microparticle-containing film contains, for example, metal microparticles and a binder resin. The decoration layer may be a single-layer structure or a laminated structure. The decorative layer of the laminate structure may be, for example, a laminate of at least two types selected from the group consisting of an ink layer, a metal thin film, and a thin film containing metal fine particles. The layered product also includes a layered product comprising two or more layers of ink layers with different compositions, two or more layers of metal thin films with different compositions, or two or more layers of thin films of metal fine particles with different compositions.

The thickness of the decorative layer is, for example, 20 μm or less, or 15 μm or less. The thickness of the decorative layer is preferably 10 μm or less, and may be 8 μm or less or 5 μm or less, from the viewpoint of easily eliminating the height difference caused by the decorative layer by using the adhesive member. And when the thickness of a decoration layer is the said range, it becomes easy to ensure the high bending resistance of a flexible image display device and an optical laminated body. From the viewpoint of ensuring a higher shielding effect of the guide wiring, the thickness of the decorative layer is preferably 10 nm or more, more preferably 30 nm or more or 50 nm or more. These upper limit values and lower limit values can be arbitrarily combined.

The decorative layer can also be formed, for example, by applying a coating agent containing the constituent components of the decorative layer to the surface of the member or layer (excluding the adhesive member) in contact with the decorative layer. For example, the surface of the first member side of the window member, the surface of the first laminated body side of the first member, or the surface of the first panel member side (or the first separate member side) with the touch sensor can also be used as the first When the second member is an optical film, the decoration layer is formed by applying a coating agent containing the components of the decoration layer to any of the surfaces of the second member on the 3A member side (or the 3B member side) of the second member. In addition, the decorative layer can also be formed by depositing the constituent components on the surface of the member or layer (excluding the adhesive member) in contact with the decorative layer by a vapor phase method. For example, the constituent components may be deposited on the surface of the first member side of the window member, the first laminate side of the first member, or the first panel member with a touch sensor by a vapor phase method. The decorative layer is formed on either the surface on the side (or the first separator side) or the surface on the 3A member side (or the 3B member side) of the second member when the second member is an optical film. In the case of a metal thin film, a decorative layer with a small thickness can be easily formed especially by using a vapor phase method. As a vapor phase method, a sputtering method, a vacuum vapor deposition method, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD: Chemical Vapor Deposition) method, an electron beam vapor deposition method, etc. are mentioned. In accordance with these circumstances, when the decorative layer is formed on the surface of the layer or the laminated body constituting the first member or the second member, the decorative layer can be formed in each member.

A primer layer may also be disposed on the surface of the member or layer (excluding the adhesive member) to be coated with the coating agent before coating. For example, when the decorative layer is provided on the surface on the first member side of the window member, a primer layer may be disposed between the decorative layer and the surface on the first member side of the window member. When the decorative layer is provided on the surface of the first laminate side of the first member or the surface of the first panel member with a touch sensor on the side (or the side of the first separate member), it can also be placed between the decorative layer and the first member. A primer layer is disposed between the surfaces of the first laminate side or the first touch sensor-attached panel member side (or the first separator side). The primer layer includes, for example, at least one selected from the group consisting of metal compounds (metal oxides, metal nitrides, metal carbides, metal sulfides, etc.) and resin materials. The primer layer should preferably be transparent.

The thickness of the primer layer is preferably small from the viewpoint of not only absorbing the height difference of the decorative layer by the adhesive member, but also easily suppressing the optical influence caused by the primer layer. The thickness of the primer layer is, for example, 500 nm or less, and preferably 100 nm or less or 30 nm or less.

The flexible image display device and the optical laminate can be produced by, for example, laminating the constituent members while arranging the adhesive member between the members (and, if necessary, between the layers constituting the members). The stacking order is not particularly limited.

For example, the window member and the first member may be laminated with the first adhesive member interposed therebetween, and then the first member and the second member may be laminated with the adhesive member interposed therebetween. . Also, after laminating the first member and the second member with the adhesive member interposed therebetween, the first member and the window member may be laminated with the first adhesive member interposed therebetween. lower layer. Each adhesive member is preferably attached to one of the members holding each adhesive member in advance.

In the optical layered body, before laminating the second member and the first member, an adhesive member may be arranged on the surface of the second member on the opposite side to the first member. In addition, in an appropriate stage after laminating the second member and the first member, an adhesive member may be arranged on the surface of the second member on the opposite side to the first member side. In the optical layered body, on the adhesive member disposed on the surface of the second member opposite to the first member side, the separator is laminated before or after the adhesive member is disposed on the surface of the second member.

The flexible image display device can also be produced by producing an optical laminate in advance, peeling off the 3B member (more specifically, a separator) from the optical laminate, and then attaching the exposed adhesive member to the 3A member. Furthermore, after the 3A member and the second member are laminated with the adhesive member interposed therebetween, the first member may be laminated on the second member with the adhesive member interposed therebetween, Next, the window members are laminated on the first member with an adhesive member interposed therebetween, thereby producing an image display device. In addition, a laminate of the 3A member and the second member, and a laminate of the window member and the first member may be prepared in advance, and these laminates may be formed with an adhesive member interposed between the first member and the second member. Layered in state.

These manufacturing methods are only examples and are not limited thereto. Even in the case where the flexible image display device or the optical laminate is provided with a panel member with a touch sensor, it can still be fabricated by laminating each member in accordance with these manufacturing methods.

[Table 1]

As shown in Table 1, when there is only a window member, a high pencil hardness (R6) of 4H can be obtained on the surface on the hard coat layer side. However, there were cases where the pencil hardness of the surface on the window member side (specifically, the surface on the hard coat layer side) was significantly reduced to B (R2 and R3) when the adhesive member was laminated with other members. On the other hand, when the thickness of the first adhesive member is 10 μm or less, the decrease in pencil hardness can be suppressed on the surface on the window member side, and high pencil hardness (E1 to E4, R4 and R5) can be secured. However, even if the thickness of the first adhesive member is 10 μm or less, when the thickness of all the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member is less than 18 μm, peeling occurs between the laminated members in a high temperature environment (60° C.), and it is impossible to ensure high Adhesion (R4 and R5).

When forming the adhesive layer, the adhesive prepared in the same manner as in Examples 1 to 4 was used (Adhesives shown in Table 2). The thickness of the adhesive layer was adjusted by the coating amount of the adhesive so that the thickness of each adhesive member of the sample became the value in Table 2.

The obtained samples were used for evaluation in the same manner as in Examples 1 to 4.

The results of Examples 5 to 6 and Comparative Examples 7 to 10 are listed in Table 2. In Table 2, Examples 5-6 are E5-E6, and Comparative Examples 7-10 are R7-R10. Table 2 also shows the results of Comparative Example 6 (R6).

As shown in Table 2, in the case of only the window member, the pencil hardness of the surface on the side of the hard coat layer was 4H, which was very high (R6). However, when the adhesion member and other members were laminated, the pencil hardness was significantly reduced to B (R8). On the other hand, when the thickness of the 1st adhesive member is set to 10 micrometers or less, the reduction of pencil hardness can be suppressed on the surface of the window member side, and high pencil hardness (E5-E6) can be ensured. In addition, even if the thickness of the first adhesive member is 10 μm or less, when the thickness of all the adhesive members other than the first adhesive member is less than 18 μm, peeling occurs between the laminated members in a high temperature environment (60° C.), and this cannot be ensured. High adhesion (R9 and R10). On the other hand, by setting the thickness of the first adhesive member to be 10 μm or less and the thickness of at least one layer other than the first adhesive member to be 18 μm or more, it is possible to achieve both high pencil hardness and adhesion in a high temperature environment (E5 and E6). Further, in Examples 5 to 6 and Comparative Examples 7 to 10, peeling of the flexure portion was not observed in the flexure test, and good adhesiveness was ensured.
