Description

Laminated film

The present invention relates to a laminated film.

Conventionally, a polarizing plate has been widely used as a polarized light supplying element and a polarized light detecting element in a display device such as a liquid crystal display device. A polarizing plate having a configuration in which a protective film is bonded to one side or both sides of a polarizing film (polarizer layer) using an adhesive or the like is known.

As a polarizing film, a film made of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin in which a dichroic dye such as iodine is oriented is known. Iodine in the polarizing film exists as an iodine complex, and the iodine complex itself is oriented depending on the orientation of the polyvinyl alcohol resin. It is known that this iodine complex absorbs light in the visible region, so that the polarizing film exhibits polarization characteristics (polarization degree).

By the way, when applying a polarizing plate to a display device, various optical layers (resin layers) such as a phase difference plate and an optical compensation film having optical properties are provided on a polarizing film provided with a protective film, if necessary. Is bonded (for example, Patent Document 1). The optical layer may contain an additive such as a plasticizer for the purpose of improving the performance of the film.

JP 2011-186482 A

However, when the polarizing plate described in Patent Document 1 is left in a humid heat environment (for example, at room temperature of 60 ° C. and humidity of 95%), the degree of polarization may decrease.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a laminated film that can maintain a high degree of polarization even in a humid heat environment.

As a result of intensive studies to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have transferred the plasticizer contained in the optical layer to the polarizing film in a humid heat environment and reacted with the iodine complex contributing to the polarization. It was estimated that the degree of polarization of the resulting polarizing plate was reduced by the disappearance of the iodine complex. On the other hand, in the adhesive layer interposed between the polarizing film and the optical layer, it is expected that the water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer is larger than 60 °, so that the migration of the plasticizer to the polarizing film can be suppressed. Thus, the present invention has been completed.

One embodiment of the present invention is a material for forming a polarizer film in which a dichroic dye is oriented in a polyvinyl alcohol resin, and a resin film having a slow axis in a direction oblique to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer A resin layer, and an adhesive layer that adheres the polarizer layer and the resin layer, the resin layer includes a plasticizer, and the adhesive layer has a water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer, Provide a laminated film greater than 60 °.

When the degree of saponification is 80 mol% or more, the moisture and heat resistance of the resulting laminated film 1 is improved. Moreover, the laminated | multilayer film 1 which has sufficient polarization | polarized-light performance as saponification degree is 99.5 mol% or less is obtained.

[Resin layer]
The resin layer 21 of the present embodiment uses a resin film having a slow axis in a direction oblique to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer 11 as a forming material. Such a resin film can be manufactured through a stretching process, and the resin film is left with a tensile stress in a direction oblique to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer 11. The residual stress remaining in the resin film can contribute to a decrease in the degree of polarization of the polarizing plate.

The resin layer 21 has a slow axis in a direction oblique to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer 11. For example, the angle of the slow axis is 45 ± 10 ° or 135 with respect to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer 11. It is preferably ± 10 °. When the angle of the slow axis is in the above range, the difference between the light phase in the fast axis direction and the light phase in the slow axis direction is π / 2. When the phase difference between the fast axis and the slow axis is π / 2, when the laminated film 1 of the present embodiment is applied to a display device, the light that has passed through the laminated film 1 can be made into circularly polarized light. . Therefore, even when viewed through a polarizing glass, a configuration with excellent visibility can be obtained.

The resin layer 21 of the present embodiment is preferably a retardation layer having retardation characteristics and wavelength dispersion characteristics that satisfy the following formulas (1) to (4). When the resin layer 21 satisfies the formulas (1) to (4), when the laminated film 1 of the present embodiment is incorporated into a display device, the screen is viewed from various directions (azimuth and polar angles) through the polarizing glass. It is possible to effectively suppress the color change when viewing the screen. Thereby, the visibility of the image display device can be improved.

(1) 100 nm ≦ R _e (590) ≦ 180 nm,
(2) 0.5 <R _th (590) / R _e (590) ≦ 0.8,
(3) 0.85 ≦ R _e (450) / R _e (550) <1.00, and (4) 1.00 <R _e (630) / R _e (550) ≦ 1.1

In the formula, R _e (590), R _e (450), R _e (550), and R _e (630) represent in-plane retardation values at measurement wavelengths of 590 nm, 450 nm, 550 nm, and 630 nm, respectively, and R _th ( 590) represents a thickness direction retardation value at a measurement wavelength of 590 nm. These in-plane retardation value and thickness direction retardation value are values measured in an environment of a temperature of 23 ° C. and a relative humidity of 55%.

Plane retardation value R _e, and the thickness direction retardation value R _th, refraction of the refractive index in the in-plane slow axis direction n _x, plane fast axis direction (perpendicular to the plane slow axis direction) When the rate is n _y , the refractive index in the thickness direction is n _z , and the thickness of the optical film is d, it is defined by the following formulas (S1) and (S2).

Examples of the stretching direction include a machine flow direction (MD) of an unstretched film, a direction perpendicular to the machine flow direction (TD), and a direction oblique to the machine flow direction (MD). Here, the unstretched film refers to a film that is not stretched. In uniaxial stretching, an unstretched film is stretched in any one of these directions. On the other hand, the biaxial stretching may be simultaneous biaxial stretching that simultaneously stretches in two stretching directions, or may be sequential biaxial stretching that stretches in another direction after stretching in a predetermined direction.

For the stretching process, for example, two or more pairs of nip rolls with increased peripheral speed on the outlet side are used to stretch in the longitudinal direction (machine flow direction: MD), or the both ends of the unstretched film are gripped with a chuck and machine flow is performed. It can be performed by spreading in a direction (TD) orthogonal to the direction. At this time, the retardation value and the wavelength dispersion can be controlled within the ranges of the above formulas (1) to (4) by adjusting the thickness of the film or adjusting the draw ratio.

Further, the chromatic dispersion value can be controlled within the range of the above formulas (3) to (4) by adding a chromatic dispersion adjusting agent to the resin.

Generally, a long polarizing film (polarizer layer) has an absorption axis in the long side direction. The long resin layer and the long polarizer layer can be bonded by roll-to-roll, and the angle between the absorption axis and the slow axis of the resin layer is within the above range. It is preferable that the resin layer 21 is manufactured by being obliquely stretched by biaxial stretching.

Examples of the resin forming the resin film include cellulose acetate resin, cycloolefin resin, polyolefin resin, acrylic resin, polyimide resin, polycarbonate resin, and polyester resin.

The cellulose acetate resin is composed of a cellulose portion or a complete acetate ester. Examples of the cellulose acetate resin include triacetyl cellulose and diacetyl cellulose.

A resin film made of a cellulose acetate resin can be easily obtained as a commercial product. As a preferable example of the commercial product, all of them are trade names of “Fujitac (registered)” sold by FUJIFILM Corporation. Trademarks) TD80 "," Fujitac (registered trademark) TD80UF "and" Fujitac (registered trademark) TD80UZ "," KC8UX2M "and" KC8UY "sold by Konica Minolta Opto Corporation.

The cycloolefin resin forming the resin film is, for example, a thermoplastic amorphous resin having a monomer unit composed of a cyclic olefin (cycloolefin) such as norbornene or a polycyclic norbornene monomer (non-crystalline polyolefin). Also called resin.) The cycloolefin-based resin may be a hydrogenated product of the above-mentioned cycloolefin ring-opening polymer or a hydrogenated product of a ring-opening copolymer using two or more kinds of cycloolefins. It may be an addition copolymer with an olefin and / or an aromatic compound having a vinyl group. In addition, a polar group may be introduced.

In the case where a resin film is formed using a copolymer of a cycloolefin and a chain olefin and / or an aromatic compound having a vinyl group, examples of the chain olefin include ethylene and propylene. Examples of the aromatic compound having a vinyl group include styrene, α-methylstyrene, and nuclear alkyl-substituted styrene. In such a copolymer, the unit of the monomer composed of cycloolefin may be 50 mol% or less, preferably 15 to 50 mol%.

In particular, when a terpolymer of a cycloolefin, a chain olefin, and an aromatic compound having a vinyl group is used, the monomer unit composed of the cycloolefin can be used in a relatively small amount as described above. In such a terpolymer, the unit of monomer composed of a chain olefin is preferably 5 to 80 mol%. The unit of the monomer composed of an aromatic compound having a vinyl group is preferably 5 to 80 mol%.

Cycloolefin-based resins can be easily obtained from commercial products, and preferable examples of commercially available products are all trade names, manufactured by TOPAS ADVANCED POLYMERS GmbH, sold in Japan by Polyplastics Co., Ltd. "TOPAS (registered trademark)", "Arton (registered trademark)" sold by JSR Corporation, "ZEONOR (registered trademark)" and "ZEONEX" sold by ZEON Corporation ) (Registered trademark) ”,“ Apel (registered trademark) ”sold by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., and the like.

When the resin layer 21 of the present embodiment is a retardation layer, the thickness of the retardation layer is preferably 10 μm or more and 50 μm or less.

The resin layer 21 of the present embodiment contains a plasticizer for the purpose of imparting flexibility to the resin film and facilitating stretching in addition to the resin forming the resin film. Examples of the plasticizer include polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol, glycerin, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, and trimethylolpropane.

The plasticizer may be used alone or in combination of two or more. In particular, ethylene glycol and glycerin are preferably used.

[Adhesive layer]
In the adhesive layer 31 of the present embodiment, the water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer 31 is larger than 60 °. When the water contact angle is larger than 60 °, the affinity between the adhesive layer 31 and the plasticizer is lowered.
Therefore, it is thought that the adhesive layer 31 is difficult for the plasticizer to enter. Thereby, in the case where the plasticizer is transferred from the resin layer 21 toward the polarizer layer 11 (in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 1) in a humid heat environment (for example, an environment having a room temperature of 60 ° C. and a humidity of 95%). It is speculated that the penetration of the plasticizer can be suppressed. The upper limit is not particularly limited, but may be 100 °.

A conventionally known measurement method can be used as the method for measuring the water contact angle. Conventionally known measurement methods include the θ / 2 method, the tangent method, the curve fitting method, the droplet method, the expansion / contraction method, the sliding method, the Wilhelmy method, the permeation rate method, and the like. Among these, in this embodiment, a droplet method is used.

Sufficient adhesiveness can be acquired as the thickness of the adhesive bond layer 31 is 0.01 micrometer or more. Moreover, when the thickness of the adhesive layer 31 is 5 μm or less, the laminated film 1 is unlikely to have a poor appearance.

The material for forming the adhesive layer 31 is not particularly limited as long as the water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer 31 is larger than 60 °, and a cured product of a known active energy ray-curable adhesive composition may be used. it can. Here, the “active energy ray-curable adhesive composition” refers to an adhesive composition that is cured by irradiation with active energy rays (for example, ultraviolet rays, visible light, electron beams, X-rays, etc.).

The adhesive layer 31 is formed so that the moisture permeability of an evaluation sample obtained by applying and curing the adhesive composition on a triacetyl cellulose film to a thickness of 2 to 3 μm is 300 g / m ² · 24 hr or less. It is preferable to select one. Although the lower limit of moisture permeability is not particularly limited, it is, for example, 50 g / m ² · 24 hr. By using an adhesive layer having such a moisture permeability, a decrease in polarization degree can be further reduced.

The evaluation sample can be produced as follows. First, the adhesive composition is applied on a triacetyl cellulose film so as to have a thickness of 2 to 3 μm to form an adhesive composition layer. The triacetyl cellulose film for measuring the moisture permeability of the evaluation sample has a thickness of 57.5 μm and moisture permeability (value calculated by the cup method (JIS Z 0208, temperature 40 ° C., humidity 90% RH)). Is 553 g / m ² · 24 hr. Next, ultraviolet rays are applied from the adhesive composition layer side so that the integrated light amount is 400 mJ / cm ^2, and the adhesive composition layer is cured to obtain an evaluation sample. The moisture permeability of the obtained evaluation sample was measured by a cup method (JIS Z 0208, temperature 40 ° C., humidity 90% RH).

(Ii) The polarizer layer 11 and the adhesive composition layer formed on the resin layer 21 in (i) above have a slow axis of 45 ± 10 ° with respect to the absorption axis of the polarizer layer 11. Or a step of obtaining a laminate in which the polarizer layer 11, the adhesive composition layer, and the resin layer 21 are laminated in this order by laminating so as to be 135 ± 10 °;
(Iii) The laminate obtained in (ii) above is irradiated with active energy rays (for example, ultraviolet rays, visible light, electron beams, X-rays, etc.), and the adhesive composition layer is cured to form an adhesive layer 31. And obtaining a process. Hereinafter, each process will be described with specific examples.

In the step shown in (i) above, first, a resin layer 21 having a slow axis is prepared. When the polarizer layer 11 is continuously manufactured, the elongated polarizer layer may have an absorption axis in the flow direction. A laminate (laminated film) can be produced by roll-to-roll, and both can be arranged so that the angle formed by the absorption axis and the slow axis of the resin layer 21 falls within the above range. The resin layer 21 is preferably manufactured by being obliquely stretched.

Examples of the stretching machine used for the oblique stretching include a tenter type stretching machine. The tenter type stretching machine can apply a feeding force, a pulling force or a pulling force at different speeds in the left and right directions in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction or in both directions. Examples of such a tenter-type stretching machine include a horizontal uniaxial stretching machine and a simultaneous biaxial stretching machine. Any suitable stretching machine can be used as long as the resin film can be continuously stretched obliquely. it can.

As a method for forming the adhesive composition layer on one surface of the resin layer 21, there is a method in which the present composition is directly applied and dried as necessary. Further, as another method, there is a method in which the present composition is applied to a transparent substrate film, dried as necessary, and then transferred to the polarizer layer 11. In the latter case, the base film is removed before the step (ii). As the transparent base film, the same resin as described above is used. Moreover, in the transparent substrate film, the application surface of the present composition may be subjected to a peeling treatment in advance.

As a coating method of the present composition, a known coating method can be employed, and examples thereof include a doctor blade, a wire bar, a die coater, a comma coater, and a gravure coater.

In the step shown in (ii) above, the polarizer layer 11 and the adhesive composition layer formed on the resin layer 21 in (i) above are bonded together, and the polarizer layer 11, the adhesive composition layer, and the resin layer 21 are bonded together. Are stacked in this order.

In the step shown in (iii) above, the adhesive composition layer is formed by irradiating the laminate obtained in (ii) with active energy rays such as visible light, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, or electron beams. It hardens | cures and it is set as the adhesive bond layer 31, and the laminated | multilayer film 1 is obtained.

The light source used for irradiation with active energy rays is not particularly limited, but a light source having a light emission distribution at a wavelength of 400 nm or less is used. Examples of such a light source include a low pressure mercury lamp, a medium pressure mercury lamp, a high pressure mercury lamp, an ultrahigh pressure mercury lamp, a chemical lamp, a black light lamp, a microwave excitation mercury lamp, and a metal halide lamp.

The irradiation intensity of the active energy ray varies depending on the adhesive composition to be cured, but it is preferable that the irradiation intensity in the wavelength region effective for activating the cationic polymerization initiator is set in the range of 10 to 2500 mW / cm ² .

In the above production example, the adhesive composition layer is formed on one surface of the resin layer 21, but may be formed on one surface of the polarizer layer 11 or on both surfaces. As shown in FIG. 2, a protective film 23 may be laminated on the side of the polarizer layer 11 opposite to the side where the resin layer 21 is bonded, and further a pressure-sensitive adhesive for bonding to a liquid crystal cell. A layer (not shown) may be provided.

According to the laminated film having the above configuration, a high degree of polarization can be maintained even in a humid heat environment.

<Laminated film stock>
In the present embodiment, the polarizer layer and the resin layer may both be long. The laminated film original fabric (elongated laminated film) of the present embodiment includes a strip-shaped polarizing film original fabric (long-shaped polarizer layer), a belt-shaped resin film original fabric (long-shaped resin layer), and And an adhesive layer that bonds the polarizing film original and the resin film original.

The original polarizing film is a strip-shaped film made of a PVA-based resin, and a dichroic dye is oriented in the longitudinal direction of the film. The PVA resin and the dichroic dye are the same as described above.

The resin film raw fabric is formed by stretching a strip-shaped film made of a thermoplastic resin and a plasticizer in a direction oblique to the longitudinal direction of the film. Thereby, a roll, a toe, and a roll are attained at the time of lamination | stacking with a polarizing film original fabric, and a manufacturing process can be simplified. The thermoplastic resin and the plasticizer are the same as described above.

The resin film original is preferably a retardation film original. In the resin film original fabric, a slow axis is given at an arbitrary angle with respect to the absorption axis of the polarizing film original fabric. The arbitrary angle is preferably 45 ± 10 ° or 135 ± 10 ° with respect to the absorption axis of the polarizing film original. When the angle of the slow axis is in the above range, when the laminated film original fabric of the present embodiment is applied to a display device, a configuration with excellent visibility can be obtained even when viewed through a polarizing glass.

The adhesive layer contains a cured product of the same adhesive composition as described above as a forming material. The water contact angle at the surface of the adhesive layer is greater than 60 °. When the water contact angle is larger than 60 °, the affinity between the adhesive layer 31 and the plasticizer becomes low. Therefore, it is thought that the adhesive layer 31 is difficult for the plasticizer to enter. This suppresses the intrusion of the plasticizer even in the case where the plasticizer moves from the resin film original to the polarizing film original in a humid heat environment (for example, at room temperature of 60 ° C. and humidity of 95%). Presumed to be possible.

According to the laminated film original fabric having the above-described configuration, a high degree of polarization can be maintained even in a humid heat environment.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described by way of examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. The unstretched film used in this example refers to a film that has not been stretched.

[Measurement of water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer]
In this example, the droplet method was applied as a method for measuring the water contact angle on the surface of the adhesive layer. Specifically, two cycloolefin resin films (trade name “ZEONOR (registered trademark)” manufactured by Nippon Zeon Co., Ltd.) having a thickness of 50 μm were prepared. Then, using a bar coater on one film surface, each prepared curable resin composition (active energy ray-curable adhesive composition) was applied so that the film thickness after curing was 2 μm, Another film was stacked on the coated surface. The laminate was irradiated with ultraviolet rays from one surface so that the integrated light amount was 250 mJ / cm ² in accordance with Example 1, and the curable resin composition was cured.

Next, after peeling off one of the films sandwiching the cured product, 8 μL of water was dropped on the cured product, and a fully automatic contact angle measuring device (product name “OCA35” manufactured by Data Physics Co., Ltd.) was used. Then, the contact angle of water after standing for 180 seconds was measured.

In the case of a water-based adhesive composition, one cycloolefin resin film as described above was prepared. And the corona treatment was given to the single side | surface of this film. Thereafter, a water-based adhesive composition was applied to the surface so that the film thickness before drying was 2 μm, and dried at 80 ° C. for 5 minutes to obtain a cured product. The contact angle was measured by the method similar to the above with respect to the obtained cured product.

[Evaluation of heat and humidity resistance of laminated film]
The laminated films of Examples and Comparative Examples were allowed to stand for 250 hours in an environment having a temperature of 65 ° C. and a relative humidity of 90%, and the visibility correction polarization degrees before and after being left were compared. At that time, the absolute value (ΔPy) of the value obtained by subtracting the visibility-corrected polarization degree before leaving from the visibility-corrected polarization degree after being left is set to ○, and ΔPy is set to 0. What was larger than 3 was set as x. The visibility correction polarization degree was measured by the following method. The results are shown in Tables 2-7.

(Measurement of visibility correction polarization degree)
For the laminated films of Examples and Comparative Examples, MD transmittance and TD transmittance in a wavelength range of 380 nm to 780 nm were measured with a spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere (manufactured by JASCO Corporation, “V7100”). Next, the degree of polarization at each wavelength was calculated based on the formula (T1) using the MD transmittance and the TD transmittance.
Here, “MD transmittance” indicates the transmittance when the direction of polarized light emitted from the Glan-Thompson prism is parallel to the transmission axis of the laminated film sample. The “TD transmittance” refers to the transmittance when the direction of polarized light emitted from the Glan-Thompson prism is orthogonal to the transmission axis of the laminated film sample.

(Measurement of moisture permeability of evaluation sample)
The evaluation sample was produced as follows. First, the adhesive composition was applied onto a triacetyl cellulose film using a bar coater so as to have a thickness of 2 to 3 μm to form an adhesive composition layer. The triacetyl cellulose film for measuring the moisture permeability of the evaluation sample has a thickness of 57.5 μm and moisture permeability (value calculated by the cup method (JIS Z 0208, temperature 40 ° C., humidity 90% RH)). KC6UA manufactured by Konica Minolta Co., Ltd. having a 553 g / m ² · 24 hr was used. Next, from the adhesive composition layer side, an ultraviolet ray is irradiated using a D bulb manufactured by Fusion UV Systems Co., Ltd. so that the integrated light amount becomes 400 mJ / cm ² , the adhesive composition layer is cured, and the evaluation sample and did. The moisture permeability of the obtained evaluation sample was measured by a cup method (JIS Z 0208, temperature 40 ° C., humidity 90% RH).

Specifically, the adhesive composition was applied using a bar coater (manufactured by Daiichi Rika Co., Ltd.) so that the film thickness after curing was about 2 μm. Separately, a corona discharge treatment was performed on one side of an unstretched film (trade name “ZEONOR (registered trademark)” manufactured by Nippon Zeon Co., Ltd.) using a norbornene-based resin having a thickness of 23 μm as a forming material. The adhesive composition was applied to the corona discharge treated surface in the same manner as the resin layer to form an adhesive composition layer.

The layers were bonded together to produce a laminate. For pasting, a pasting apparatus (manufactured by Fuji Pla Co., Ltd., “LPA3301”) was used. When pasting, the angle formed by the absorption axis of the polarizer layer and the slow axis of the resin layer was set to 45 °.

At this time, the slow axis of the resin layer and the absorption axis of the polarizer layer were made substantially parallel. When the protective film prepared in (b-2) was bonded, the side without the hard coat layer was the bonding surface with the polarizer layer. Next, while maintaining the tension of the laminate, the laminate was passed through a drying furnace to dry the adhesive to obtain a laminate film.

A pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (thickness 15 μm) having a storage elastic modulus of about 0.7 MPa was provided on the opposite side of the resin layer from the adhesive surface with the polarizer layer. The laminated film was bonded to glass via this pressure-sensitive adhesive layer to obtain an evaluation sample. The sample was allowed to stand for 250 hours in an environment of a temperature of 65 ° C. and a relative humidity of 90% as in the evaluation of the heat and humidity resistance, and the visibility corrected polarization degree before and after being left was compared. As a result, the amount of change ΔPy in the visibility correction polarization degree was 0.3% or less.
