The lower limit of the glossiness G is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 15.

The lower the haze H, the lower the degree of cloudiness and the better the visibility. The haze H is preferably 60% or less, more preferably 50% or less, and even more preferably 40% or less. The lower limit of haze H is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 10%.
 ぎらつき指標値Sは、ディスプレイ等において、RGBの画素や明るさのムラが多数の光点等としてチラついて見える程度を示す。ぎらつき指標値Sが低いほど、ぎらつきの度合いが低く、視認性が良好となる。ぎらつき指標値Sは、6%以下であることが好ましく、5%以下であることがより好ましく、4%以下であることがさらに好ましい。なお、ぎらつき指標値Sの下限値は特に限定されないが、例えば、1.5%とすることができる。 The glare index value S indicates the degree to which RGB pixels and uneven brightness appear to flicker as a large number of light spots on a display or the like.

The lower limit of the reflection index value C is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 2%.
 本実施形態の特徴は、視認性パラメータをPとしたときに、下記の式(1)における視認性パラメータPが、150以上、2000以下であることにある。それによって、視認性を効果的に高めることができる。これを、以下において説明する。 The feature of this embodiment is that the visibility parameter P in the following formula (1) is 150 or more and 2000 or less when the visibility parameter is P. Thereby, the visibility can be effectively enhanced. This will be described below.
 P=(100000×DOI)/(G×H×S×C)…式(1) P = (100000 x DOI) / (G x H x S x C) ... Equation (1)
 上記のように、像鮮明度DOIは高いほど好ましく、光沢度G、ヘイズH、ぎらつき指標値S及び映り込み指標値Cは低いほど好ましい。しかしながら、ヘイズHと映り込み指標値Cとはトレードオフの関係にあり、あるいは、像鮮明度DOIと映り込み指標値Cとがトレードオフの関係となることもある。そのため、実際には、像鮮明度DOI、光沢度G、ヘイズH、ぎらつき指標値S及び映り込み指標値Cの全てを理想的な値とすることは困難である。さらに、室外における太陽光の下の視認性に関する環境は、室内の環境とは大きく異なる。そのため、従来のカバーガラス等によっては、室外におけるディスプレイ等の視認性をも十分に高めることは困難である。 As described above, the higher the image sharpness DOI is, the more preferable it is, and the lower the glossiness G, haze H, glare index value S and reflection index value C are preferable. However, the haze H and the reflection index value C may have a trade-off relationship, or the image sharpness DOI and the reflection index value C may have a trade-off relationship. Therefore, in reality, it is difficult to set all of the image sharpness DOI, the glossiness G, the haze H, the glare index value S, and the reflection index value C as ideal values. Furthermore, the outdoor environment for visibility under sunlight is very different from the indoor environment. Therefore, it is difficult to sufficiently improve the visibility of the display or the like outdoors with the conventional cover glass or the like.
 これに対して、本実施形態においては、上記式(1)により視認性パラメータPを規定している。視認性に対しては、像鮮明度DOI、光沢度G、ヘイズH、ぎらつき指標値S及び映り込み指標値Cといった複数の要素が複合的に影響するが、視認性パラメータPを規定することにより、複合的な指標を得ることができる。さらに、本実施形態では、視認性パラメータPを150以上、2000以下としている。つまり、発明者はこの範囲になるように、像鮮明度DOI、光沢度G、ヘイズH、ぎらつき指標値S及び映り込み指標値Cをバランスよく保つことにより、視認性を効果的に高めることができることを見出した。カバーガラス1は、室外に配置されるデジタルサイネージ等に特に好適に用いられる。もっとも、カバーガラス1は、室内において使用されるディスプレイにも好適に用いられる。 On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the visibility parameter P is defined by the above equation (1). Although multiple factors such as image sharpness DOI, glossiness G, haze H, glare index value S, and reflection index value C have a complex effect on visibility, the visibility parameter P should be specified. Therefore, a complex index can be obtained. Further, in the present embodiment, the visibility parameter P is set to 150 or more and 2000 or less. That is, the inventor effectively enhances the visibility by keeping the image sharpness DOI, the glossiness G, the haze H, the glare index value S and the reflection index value C in a well-balanced manner so as to fall within this range. I found that I could do it. The cover glass 1 is particularly preferably used for digital signage or the like arranged outdoors. However, the cover glass 1 is also suitably used for a display used indoors.
 視認性パラメータPは200以上であることが好ましく、300以上であることがより好ましく、400以上であることがさらに好ましく、500以上であることがより一層好ましい。また、視認性パラメータPは1750以下であることが好ましく、1500以下であることがより好ましく、1000以下であることがさらに好ましく、800以下であることがより一層好ましい。それによって、視認性をより一層高めることができる。 The visibility parameter P is preferably 200 or more, more preferably 300 or more, further preferably 400 or more, and even more preferably 500 or more. The visibility parameter P is preferably 1750 or less, more preferably 1500 or less, further preferably 1000 or less, and even more preferably 800 or less. Thereby, the visibility can be further improved.

(Evaluation)
The image sharpness DOI, glossiness G, haze H, glare index value S, and reflection index value C of the cover glasses of Examples 1 to 10 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were measured, respectively. Image sharpness DOI was measured using SMS-1000 (manufactured by Display-Mestechnik & System) based on ASTM D 5767. As the glossiness G, the glossiness G at an incident angle of 60 ° on the cover glass was measured using Microgloss (60 °) (manufactured by BYK) based on JIS Z 8741: 1997. Haze H was measured using NDH-5000 (manufactured by Nippon Denshoku Co., Ltd.) based on JIS K 7136: 2000. The glare index value S was measured in a sparkle measurement mode using SMS-1000 (manufactured by Display-Mestechnik & System). The number of pixels of the SMS-1000 CCD camera is 1296 × 966, the sensor size is 1/3 type, and the pixel size is 3.75 × 3.75 μm. Further, the focal length of the lens was set to 100 mm, the aperture diameter of the lens was set to 4.5 mm, the magnification ratio was set to 1: 1, and the permissible circle of confusion diameter was set to 53 μm. The pattern mask was arranged so that the top surface was located at the focal position of the lens. The reflection index value C was measured in a reflection distribution measurement mode using SMS-1000 (manufactured by Display-Mestechnik & System). Using a lens with a focal length of 16 mm, the incident angle of the incident light is set to 3 °, the distance from the irradiation position on the cover glass of the examples and the comparative examples to the lens is set to 410 mm, and the cover glasses of the examples and the comparative examples It was measured by sticking it on a blackboard glass with an immersion liquid having a refractive index of 1.53 on the back surface of the lens.
 さらに、測定した像鮮明度DOI、光沢度G、ヘイズH、ぎらつき指標値S及び映り込み指標値Cから、式(1)により、実施例1~10及び比較例1~6の視認性パラメータPを算出した。 Further, from the measured image sharpness DOI, glossiness G, haze H, glare index value S, and reflection index value C, the visibility parameters of Examples 1 to 10 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 are obtained according to the formula (1). P was calculated.
 P=(100000×DOI)/(G×H×S×C)…式(1) P = (100000 x DOI) / (G x H x S x C) ... Equation (1)
 これらの結果を下記の表3に示す。 These results are shown in Table 3 below.
