Thereafter, the liquid crystal display device was taken out from the chamber, and the luminance uniformity (image unevenness) of the display screen was visually observed in a state where the liquid crystal display device was displayed in black at room temperature, and evaluated based on the following criteria.
- image unevenness is synonymous with luminance unevenness due to light leakage during black display.
- ⁇ or ⁇ is preferable.
- evaluation criteria A: Image unevenness was hardly recognized. ⁇ : When very careful, image unevenness is slightly observed, but there is no problem in actual use. X: Image unevenness is recognized and there is a problem in actual use.
- Table 3 shows the results of evaluation of image unevenness and the correspondence between the examples of the present invention and comparative examples.
- the evaluation result of the image unevenness is x.
- the sugar ester contained in the protective film (zero retardation film) of the polarizing plate is less than 70% with respect to the total mass of the retardation reducing agent, and other retardation reducing agents (esters) This is probably because the deterioration of the polarizer due to the acid generated during the synthesis of the compounds E1 and E2 and the acrylic additive A1) cannot be suppressed, or the effect of suppressing the deterioration is small.
- the deterioration of the polarizer is as follows: (1) the total thickness of the first protective film and the polarizer is reduced to 50 ⁇ m or less, so that moisture easily passes through the first protective film; (2) Crosslinking of PVA of the polarizer is destroyed by the acid, but when the sugar ester contained in the retardation reducing agent is small (there are many other retardation reducing agents) Since the destruction of (2) cannot be suppressed, the deterioration of the polarizer due to (1) is further promoted by (2). As a result of the deterioration of the polarizer in this way, light leakage is considered to occur during black display.
- the evaluation result of the image unevenness is good.
- the sugar ester contained in the protective film of the polarizing plate is as large as 70% or more with respect to the total mass of the retardation reducing agent, and the destruction of (2) can be suppressed. Conceivable. That is, even when the total thickness of the first protective film and the polarizer is reduced to 50 ⁇ m or less, the deterioration of the polarizer due to the above (1) can be suppressed from being further promoted by the above (2). Therefore, even when the thickness is reduced, it is considered that as a result, the polarizers 10 to 12 are hardly deteriorated.
- the sugar ester as a retardation reducing agent has two furanose structures or pyranose structures. If the OH group of the above compound is esterified with an aliphatic alkyl group, it can be said that there is an effect of reducing Ro. Further, in the optical films 1 and 6 to 8, since Rt can be suppressed to 3.0 nm or less, the sugar ester as an additive is a compound having two furanose or pyranose structures (here, sucrose). If the OH group is esterified with an acetyl group, it can be said that there is an effect of further reducing Rt.
- the result of evaluation of image unevenness is good, but the Rt of the optical film 9 used for the polarizing plate 9 exceeds 10 nm (see Table 2). It cannot be said that a zero retardation film has been realized. This is because the sugar ester contained in the retardation reducing agent of the optical film 9 is obtained by esterifying the OH group of a compound having a furanose structure or a pyranose structure with an aromatic alkyl group, and the effect of bringing Rt close to zero is small. it is conceivable that.
- the polarizing plate and the liquid crystal display device of the present embodiment described above can be expressed as follows.
- a polarizing plate in which a first protective film, a polarizing film as a polarizer, a second protective film, and an adhesive layer are laminated in this order,
