図1は、本発明の1つの実施形態による光学補償層付偏光板の概略断面図である。本実施形態の光学補償層付偏光板100は、偏光子10と第1の光学補償層30と第2の光学補償層40と第3の光学補償層50と第4の光学補償層60とを備える。実用的には、図示例のように、偏光子10の第1の光学補償層30と反対側に保護層20が設けられ得る。また、光学補償層付偏光板は、偏光子10と第1の光学補償層30との間に別の保護層(内側保護層とも称する)を備えてもよい。図示例においては、内側保護層は省略されている。この場合、第1の光学補償層30が内側保護層としても機能し得る。このような構成であれば、光学補償層付偏光板のさらなる薄型化が実現され得る。さらに、必要に応じて、第4の光学補償層60の第3の光学補償層50と反対側(すなわち、第4の光学補償層60の外側)に導電層および基材をこの順に設けてもよい(いずれも図示せず)。基材は、導電層に密着積層されている。本明細書において「密着積層」とは、2つの層が接着層(例えば、接着剤層、粘着剤層)を介在することなく直接かつ固着して積層されていることをいう。導電層および基材は、代表的には、基材と導電層との積層体として光学補償層付偏光板100に導入され得る。導電層および基材をさらに設けることにより、光学補償層付偏光板100は、インナータッチパネル型入力表示装置に好適に用いられ得る。

厚み30μmのポリビニルアルコール(PVA)系樹脂フィルム(クラレ製、製品名「PE3000」)の長尺ロールを、ロール延伸機により長手方向に5.9倍になるように長手方向に一軸延伸しながら同時に膨潤、染色、架橋、洗浄処理を施し、最後に乾燥処理を施すことにより厚み12μmの偏光子を作製した。
具体的には、膨潤処理は20℃の純水で処理しながら2.2倍に延伸した。次いで、染色処理は得られる偏光子の単体透過率が45.0%になるようにヨウ素濃度が調整されたヨウ素とヨウ化カリウムの重量比が1:7である30℃の水溶液中において処理しながら1.4倍に延伸した。更に、架橋処理は、2段階の架橋処理を採用し、1段階目の架橋処理は40℃のホウ酸とヨウ化カリウムを溶解した水溶液において処理しながら1.2倍に延伸した。1段階目の架橋処理の水溶液のホウ酸含有量は5.0重量%で、ヨウ化カリウム含有量は3.0重量%とした。2段階目の架橋処理は65℃のホウ酸とヨウ化カリウムを溶解した水溶液において処理しながら1.6倍に延伸した。2段階目の架橋処理の水溶液のホウ酸含有量は4.3重量%で、ヨウ化カリウム含有量は5.0重量%とした。また、洗浄処理は、20℃のヨウ化カリウム水溶液で処理した。洗浄処理の水溶液のヨウ化カリウム含有量は2.6重量%とした。最後に、乾燥処理は70℃で5分間乾燥させて偏光子を得た。
上記偏光子の片側に、ポリビニルアルコール系接着剤を介して、TACフィルムの片面にハードコート処理により形成されたハードコート(HC)層を有するHC-TACフィルム(厚み:32μm、保護層に対応する)をロールツーロールにより貼り合わせ、保護層/偏光子の構成を有する長尺状の偏光板を得た。
上記で得られた偏光板、第1の光学補償層、第2の光学補償層、第3の光学補償層および第4の光学補償層を所定のサイズに裁断し、偏光板の偏光子面と第1の光学補償層とをアクリル系粘着剤を介して貼り合わせ、さらに、第2の光学補償層から第4の光学補償層をそれぞれアクリル系粘着剤を介してこの順に貼り合わせた。このようにして、保護層/偏光子/第1の光学補償層/第2の光学補償層/第3の光学補償層/第4の光学補償層の構成を有する光学補償層付偏光板を得た。なお、第1の光学補償層の裁断は、光学補償層付偏光板において偏光子の吸収軸と第1の光学補償層の遅相軸とが実質的に直交するように行い;第2の光学補償層の裁断は、偏光子の吸収軸と第2の光学補償層の遅相軸とのなす角度が96°となるように行い;第3の光学補償層の裁断は、偏光子の吸収軸と第3の光学補償層の遅相軸とのなす角度が123°となるように行い;第4の光学補償層の裁断は、偏光子の吸収軸と第4の光学補償層の遅相軸とのなす角度が9°となるように行った。
得られた光学補償層付偏光板の第4の光学補償層側にアクリル系粘着剤で粘着剤層を形成した。
三星無線社製のスマートフォン(Galaxy-S5)を分解して有機ELパネルを取り出した。この有機ELパネルに貼り付けられている偏光フィルムを剥がし取り、かわりに、上記で切り出した光学補償層付偏光板を貼り合わせて有機ELパネルを得た。
第1の光学補償層を作製する際の延伸条件を変更して第1の光学補償層のNz係数を0.75としたこと、および、偏光子の吸収軸と第1の光学補償層の遅相軸とが実質的に平行となるように積層したこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、保護層/偏光子/第1の光学補償層/第2の光学補償層/第3の光学補償層/第4の光学補償層の構成を有する光学補償層付偏光板を得た。さらに、この光学補償層付偏光板を用いたこと以外は実施例1と同様にして有機ELパネルを作製した。得られた光学補償層付偏光板および有機ELパネルを実施例1と同様の評価に供した。結果を表1に示す。
