Definitions
- the present invention relates to a reflective film for backlight and a backlight using the same.
- the liquid crystal display uses a backlight that illuminates the liquid crystal cell.
- a backlight that illuminates the liquid crystal cell.
- an edge-light type backlight was adopted for a relatively small liquid crystal monitor, and a direct type backlight was adopted for a relatively large liquid crystal television.
- the backlight of the edge light system has been adopted even in large liquid crystal televisions, and at the same time, the development of the backlight of the edge light system has been vigorously carried out.
- light-emitting diodes hereinafter abbreviated as LEDs
- these reflective films for a backlight a porous white film formed of bubbles is generally used (for example, Patent Document 1).
- a light guide plate is used as an optical member for an edge light type backlight.
- the light guide plate 2 and the reflective film 1 are generally arranged in contact with each other inside the backlight, and the reflective film 1 emits light irradiated to the reflective film side through the light guide plate 2. It has a function of reflecting and improving the luminance of the backlight.
- the light guide plate a size up to about 25 inches is sufficient for conventional notebook computers and desktop monitors, but 30 to 60 inches are required for televisions. Therefore, acrylic resin, a mixture of acrylic resin and styrene resin, a plate made of styrene resin, glass, etc. is used as a substrate, dot printing is performed on it, or molding is performed using a mold or roll.
- a light guide plate 2 having a convex portion 5 as shown in FIG. 2 has been developed. Further, a light guide plate 2 having a concave portion as shown in FIG. 3 has been developed by performing laser processing on the substrate as shown above or molding it using a mold or a roll.
- the problem is that the light guide plate and the reflective film are non-uniformly adhered to each other, causing optical unevenness in a planar shape, a line shape, or a dot shape (particularly, a portion that is brightly visible in a dotted shape is called white spot unevenness), and the light guide plate
- the reflective films rub against each other, there is a problem that the light guide plate is scratched and optical unevenness occurs, and it has been a problem to improve these.
- Patent Document 2 a reflective film having a convex portion having a specific height has been proposed (Patent Document 2).
- an LED light bar is used in an edge light type backlight using an LED as a light source, but with respect to the position where the LED light bar is installed, it is conventionally arranged on the four sides of the display.
- the arrangement has changed to two long sides, two short sides, one long side, and one short side.
- a thickness of 3 mm or more is conventionally thinner than 3 mm, for example, 2 The thickness is reduced to 5 mm, 2 mm, 1 mm, and lower thicknesses.
- optical films such as a diffusion film and a prism film have been used for the backlight until now, but the number of optical films is designed to be reduced due to demands for cost reduction and thinning of the display.
- the light guide plate when the temperature inside the backlight rises due to heat generated when the light source (for example, LED) is turned on, the light guide plate generally undergoes thermal deformation.
- the temperature gradient inside the backlight tends to be larger at the portion close to and away from the LED light source due to the change in the position of the light source. Due to this temperature gradient, the degree of thermal expansion and contraction of the light guide plate is also different for each part. As a result, a dimensional difference is generated in the surface of the light guide plate, and the light guide plate is easily deformed like a wave. And the deformation
- the reflection film in contact with the light guide plate is fitted into the backlight in contact with the light guide plate with a substantially uniform load in the plane if the light guide plate maintains flatness.
- the light guide plate comes into contact with the light guide plate with a large load and is fitted into the backlight.
- the light guide plate and the reflective film rub against each other strongly, and the reflective film is likely to be damaged.
- a dent-like scratch or streak-like scratch occurs on the surface of the reflective film itself, when light enters the reflective film from the light guide plate, a shadow is generated on the scratched portion of the reflective film, This shadow is visually recognized as optical unevenness on the screen.
- optical unevenness has been reduced by the use of optical sheets such as a plurality of diffusion films and prism films generally used for backlights.
- optical sheets such as a plurality of diffusion films and prism films generally used for backlights.
- it is difficult to reduce optical unevenness because the number of optical films is designed to reduce the cost of the backlight and reduce the thickness of the display.

基材フィルムとしては、特に限定されず、銀やアルミニウムの蒸着フィルム、銀箔やアルミニウム箔のラミネートフィルム、白色フィルム、多層積層フィルム等が挙げられる。基材フィルムは、液晶ディスプレイ用バックライトや照明用途の反射フィルムとして使用する場合には可視光線の反射率が高い方が良い。このため、内部に気泡及び/又は非相溶の粒子を含有するフィルムが使用できる。フィルムとしては熱可塑性樹脂フィルムが好ましく使用される。これらの熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとしては限定されるものではないが、多孔質の未延伸あるいは二軸延伸されたポリプロピレンフィルムや、多孔質の未延伸あるいは延伸されたポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルムなどの、ポリオレフィン系やポリエステル系のフィルムが好ましく用いられる。特に成形性や生産性の点からポリエステル系フィルムが好ましく用いられる。
本発明の反射フィルムは、粒子含有層を有する。粒子含有層は、基材フィルムに隣接して存在しているのが好ましい。粒子含有層の形成方法としては、特に限定されないが、以下の方法が挙げられる。
(I)基材フィルムの少なくとも片面に粒子を含有した樹脂層を貼り合わせるか、粒子を含有した塗液を塗布し、それを乾燥する方法。
(II)溶融押出により基材フィルムを製造する際に、粒子を含有した樹脂原料を共に押出すことで粒子含有層を積層する方法。
本発明の反射フィルムは少なくとも一方の面に凸部が存在している。凸部は、粒子含有層に含まれる粒子によって生成可能である。ここで、複数の凸部が接しているものを凸部の集合体という。凸部の数を数えるにあたりその集合体を1つの凸部として数えず、注目する集合体での凸部の個数とする。
(i)直径が25~50μmの凸部がある。
(ii)直径が25~50μmの凸部に接触せず、独立して存在する直径が25~50μmの凸部の個数が0.64mm2あたり10~100個である。
(iii)直径が25~50μmの凸部が連続して接触する凸部の集合体に含まれる凸部の個数が0.64mm2あたり10個以下である。
粒子の材質としては特に限定されるものではなく、有機系、無機系、いずれでも用いることができる。また形状については、球状粒子、その他の形状の粒子のいずれでも選択できる。本発明の凸部の特徴を与えるには球状粒子が好ましい。有機系粒子としては、アクリル系樹脂粒子、シリコーン系樹脂粒子、ナイロン系樹脂粒子、スチレン系樹脂粒子、ポリエチレン系樹脂粒子、ポリプロピレン系樹脂粒子、ベンゾグアナミン系樹脂粒子、ウレタン系樹脂粒子、ポリエステル系樹脂粒子等を用いることができる。無機系粒子としては、シリカ、水酸化アルミニウム、酸化アルミニウム、酸化亜鉛、硫化バリウム、マグネシウムシリケート、およびこれらの混合物等を用いることができる。
基材フィルムの少なくとも片面に、塗液の塗布により粒子含有層を設ける場合には、バインダー樹脂としては、特に限定されないが、例えばポリエステル樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂、アクリル樹脂、メタクリル樹脂、ポリアミド樹脂、ポリエチレン樹脂、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ポリ塩化ビニル樹脂、ポリ塩化ビニリデン樹脂、ポリスチレン樹脂、ポリ酢酸ビニル樹脂、フッ素系樹脂、シリコーン樹脂などが挙げられる。これらの樹脂は、粒子含有層を塗布以外の方法で設ける場合でも、粒子以外の樹脂として好適に用いられる。また、これらの樹脂は単独で用いてもよく、あるいは2種以上を用いてもよい。中でもポリエステル樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂、アクリル樹脂及びメタクリル樹脂が耐熱性、粒子の分散性、塗液の塗布性、得られる反射フィルムの光沢性の点から好ましく使用される。
塗布により基材フィルムの少なくとも片面に粒子含有層を形成するにあたっては、任意の方法を採用することができる。例えば、バインダー樹脂と粒子とを溶剤に含有させてなる塗液をグラビアコート、ロールコート、スピンコート、リバースコート、リバースキスコート、バーコート、スクリーンコート、ブレードコート、エアーナイフコート、スリットダイコート、リップコート及びディッピングなどの各種塗布方法を用いて、基材フィルム製造時に塗布したり、結晶配向完了後の基材フィルム上に塗布したりする方法などが挙げられる。前者の塗布方法をインラインコーティングといい、後者の塗布方法をオフラインコーティングという。塗工有効幅に制限が少なく、製品幅の変化に柔軟に対応したい場合には、リバースキスコートが最も好ましく使用できる。
かかる基材フィルム及び粒子含有層は、各種の添加剤を含むことができる。かかる添加剤としては、例えば、蛍光増白剤、架橋剤、耐熱安定剤、耐酸化安定剤、有機の滑剤、帯電防止剤、核剤、染料、顔料、充填剤、分散剤、難燃剤及びカップリング剤などがある。
本発明の反射フィルムは、エッジライト型バックライトに用いられるが、中でも、エッジライト方式の液晶ディスプレイ用バックライト、及び看板や自動販売機等の照明用面光源に好適に使用することができる。
<<エッジライト型バックライトの構成>>
本発明の反射フィルムは、エッジライト型バックライトに好適に用いられる。エッジライト型バックライトは、例えば筐体に、本発明の反射フィルム、導光板がこの順に組み込まれてなり、反射フィルムは、粒子含有層の側が導光板に対向するように組み込まれる。また、導光板のエッジ部分には、LEDなどの光源が設置される。さらに、導光板の前面(反射フィルムとは反対側)には、拡散フィルム、プリズムフィルムなどの光学フィルムが設置されてもよい。
(i)液晶テレビより反射フィルム上部に配置された導光板を取り出す。
(ii)前記導光板を5cm角にカットし、任意の5枚を取り出す。
(iii)キーエンス社製レーザー顕微鏡VK-9700を用いて、対物レンズの倍率を20倍に設定して観察を行い、高さ又は深さが1μm以上で検出される部分を表面凹凸とする。
実体顕微鏡(ニコン製、SMZ1500)を用いて、総合倍率20~200倍で適宜調節して粒子含有層の表面を観察しながら金属製の治具で凸部に含まれる粒子をサンプリングし、測定対象試料とした。

反射フィルムを縦100mm×横100mmに切り出して質量を測定した。この値を質量1とした。次に粒子含有層が上面になるようにして反射フィルムを質量秤(Yamato製、品番SD-12、使用範囲500g~12kg、目量50g、形式承認第D9812号、精度等級0級)の皿の上に置いた。このとき、反射フィルムの四隅の裏面に両面テープを貼っておき質量秤の皿と反射フィルムとを固定した。次に、メチルエチルケトンを染み込ませた不織布(“ハイゼガーゼ”、NT-4、25cm×25cm、4折、発売元:川本産業株式会社)を2つ折にして、底面が10mm×10mmの四角柱状の金属棒の片側の底面を覆うようにして金属棒に輪ゴムで縛り付けた。次に、不織布を縛り付けた金属棒の不織布を付けた面で、秤の目盛りが1.5~2.5kgになる荷重で、質量秤の皿の上に固定した反射フィルムの粒子含有層を擦った。擦る際は、縦100mm×横10mmの範囲ずつに分けて10往復ずつ擦り、この操作を横にずらしながら10回繰り返すことで縦100mm×横100mmの粒子含有層の全面を擦る。次に両面テープを剥がして反射フィルムを重量秤の皿から外して、室温で放置してメチルエチルケトンを蒸発させた後、質量を測定した。この値を質量2とした。粒子含有層の質量は、(質量1-質量2)を計算して求めた。
粒子含有層を約10mg分削り取ってから、正確に質量を測定した。この質量を質量3とする。次に、MEKを25ml計りとって、削り取った粒子含有層とともに、蓋付きの容量50mlで直径35mmの円柱状のガラス瓶に入れた。次に、ガラス瓶に撹拌子を入れて24hr撹拌を行い、その後撹拌子を取り出した。次に、ろ紙(MILLIPORE社製、“OMNIPORE”、CAT NO.JGWP02500)を直径21mmの円形にカットして質量を測定した。この値を質量4とする。を測定した後、ろ紙を漏斗(有限会社桐山製作所製、SB-21、21φ)に置き、その漏斗を減圧ろ過用の吸引瓶にセットした後、漏斗にガラス瓶の液体を入れ、減圧ろ過を行った。ろ過作業後のろ紙を90℃にセットしたホットプレートに置いてメチルエチルケトンを乾燥させた後、ろ過作業後のろ紙の質量を測定しる。この値を質量5とする。粒子含有層中の粒子量割合は下式で算出した。

反射フィルムを無作為に選んだ位置で切断し、走査型電子顕微鏡((株)日立製作所製S-3400N)にて、まず断面を倍率1,000倍にて観察した。4辺に粒子が内接し面積が最も小さくなる正方形又は長方形を描き、正方形の場合は1辺の長さ、長方形の場合は長辺の長さを採用した。この方法により、無作為に選んだ500個の粒子についてそれぞれの粒子径を測定した。
反射フィルムの表面を走査型電子顕微鏡((株)日立製作所製S-3400N)にて、まず倍率100倍、加速電圧7.50kVにて、凸部の輪郭を観察した。なお、倍率100倍における画像の視野は1.27mm×0.885mmであった。この画像の中心0.8mm×0.8mmを選択し、直径が25~50μmの凸部に接触せず独立して存在する直径が25~50μmの凸部の個数を数えた。ここで、凸部の直径は、SEM画像の凸部の輪郭から、4辺に輪郭が内接し面積が最も小さくなる正方形又は長方形を描き、正方形の場合は1辺の長さ、長方形の場合は長辺の長さを、凸部の直径と採用した。
倍率100倍で撮影した画像における50μmが10mmになるよう画像を紙でプリントアウトした。プリントアウトした紙を万能投影機(型番:V-16A、(株)ニコン製、観察限界0.001mm)で観察した。このとき、万能投影機での0.001mmは100倍で撮影した画像では0.005μmに相当する。画像に含まれる全凸部について粒子の最外部から他の凸部の最外部までの最も短い距離を測定し、プリントアウトした紙上で0.001mm以下(すなわち、100倍で撮影した画像では0.005μm以下に相当)である場合、凸部が「接触」していると判断した。また、凸部の最外部から他の凸部の最外部までの最も短い距離を測定し、プリントアウトした紙上で0.001mmより大きい(すなわち、100倍で撮影した画像では0.005μmより大きい距離に相当)場合、凸部が「接触」していないと判断した。
