光吸収層41は、所定のデザインが施された意匠層であってもよく、ベタの着色層であってもよい。光吸収層は、好ましくはベタの着色層であり、より好ましくは黒色の着色層である。このような光吸収層を低屈折率層よりも前面側に設けることにより、臨界角以上の入射角で低屈折率層に入射し低屈折率層で反射されない光を良好に吸収し遮断することができる。
基材42は、代表的には、樹脂(好ましくは、透明樹脂)のフィルムまたは板状物で構成され得る。このような樹脂の代表例としては、熱可塑性樹脂、反応性樹脂(例えば、電離放射線硬化性樹脂)が挙げられる。熱可塑性樹脂の具体例としては、ポリメタクリル酸メチル(PMMA)、ポリアクリロニトリル等の(メタ)アクリル系樹脂、ポリカーボネート(PC)樹脂、PET等のポリエステル樹脂、トリアセチルセルロース(TAC)等のセルロース系樹脂、環状ポリオレフィン系樹脂、スチレン系樹脂が挙げられる。電離放射線硬化性樹脂の具体例としては、エポキシアクリレート系樹脂、ウレタンアクリレート系樹脂が挙げられる。これらの樹脂は、単独で用いてもよく2種以上を併用してもよい。

空隙層(低屈折率層)を50mm×50mmのサイズにカットし、ヘイズメーター(村上色彩技術研究所社製:HM-150)にセットしてヘイズを測定する。ヘイズ値については、以下の式より算出する。

(3)斜め方向の光漏れ
実施例および比較例で得られたバックライトユニットを組み込んだ液晶表示装置を全画面黒表示とし、斜め方向の光漏れを目視により観察した。
(1)ケイ素化合物のゲル化
2.2gのジメチルスルホキシド(DMSO)に、ケイ素化合物の前駆体であるメチルトリメトキシシラン(MTMS)を0.95g溶解させて混合液Aを調製した。この混合液Aに、0.01mol/Lのシュウ酸水溶液を0.5g添加し、室温で30分撹拌を行うことでMTMSを加水分解して、トリス(ヒドロキシ)メチルシランを含む混合液Bを生成した。
5.5gのDMSOに、28重量%のアンモニア水0.38g、および純水0.2gを添加した後、さらに、上記混合液Bを追添し、室温で15分撹拌することで、トリス(ヒドロキシ)メチルシランのゲル化を行い、ゲル状ケイ素化合物を含む混合液Cを得た。
(2)熟成処理
上記のように調製したゲル状ケイ素化合物を含む混合液Cを、そのまま、40℃で20時間インキュベートして、熟成処理を行った。
(3)粉砕処理
つぎに、上記のように熟成処理したゲル状ケイ素化合物を、スパチュラを用いて数mm~数cmサイズの顆粒状に砕いた。次いで、混合液Cにイソプロピルアルコール(IPA)を40g添加し、軽く撹拌した後、室温で6時間静置して、ゲル中の溶媒および触媒をデカンテーションした。同様のデカンテーション処理を3回行うことにより、溶媒置換し、混合液Dを得た。次いで、混合液D中のゲル状ケイ素化合物を粉砕処理(高圧メディアレス粉砕)した。粉砕処理(高圧メディアレス粉砕)は、ホモジナイザー(エスエムテー社製、商品名「UH-50」)を使用し、5ccのスクリュー瓶に、混合液D中のゲル状化合物1.85gおよびIPAを1.15g秤量した後、50W、20kHzの条件で2分間の粉砕で行った。
この粉砕処理によって、上記混合液D中のゲル状ケイ素化合物が粉砕されたことにより、該混合液D’は、粉砕物のゾル液となった。混合液D’に含まれる粉砕物の粒度バラツキを示す体積平均粒子径を、動的光散乱式ナノトラック粒度分析計(日機装社製、UPA-EX150型)にて確認したところ、0.50~0.70であった。さらに、このゾル液(混合液C’)0.75gに対し、光塩基発生剤(和光純薬工業株式会社:商品名WPBG266)の1.5重量%濃度MEK(メチルエチルケトン)溶液を0.062g、ビス(トリメトキシシリル)エタンの5%濃度MEK溶液を0.036gの比率で添加し、低屈折率層形成用塗工液を得た。
攪拌羽根、温度計、窒素ガス導入管、冷却器を備えた4つ口フラスコに、ブチルアクリレート90.7部、N-アクリロイルモルホリン6部、アクリル酸3部、2-ヒドロキシブチルアクリレート0.3部、重合開始剤として2,2’-アゾビスイソブチロニトリル0.1重量部を酢酸エチル100gと共に仕込み、緩やかに攪拌しながら窒素ガスを導入して窒素置換した後、フラスコ内の液温を55℃付近に保って8時間重合反応を行い、アクリル系ポリマー溶液を調製した。得られたアクリル系ポリマー溶液の固形分100部に対して、イソシアネート架橋剤(日本ポリウレタン工業社製のコロネートL、トリメチロールプロパンのトリレンジイソシアネートのアダクト体)0.2部、ベンゾイルパーオキサイド(日本油脂社製のナイパーBMT)0.3部、γ-グリシドキシプロピルメトキシシラン(信越化学工業社製:KBM-403)0.2部を配合したアクリル系粘着剤溶液を調製した。次いで、上記アクリル系粘着剤溶液を、シリコーン処理を施したポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)フィルム(三菱化学ポリエステルフィルム社製、厚さ:38μm)の片面に、乾燥後の粘着剤層の厚さが20μmになるように塗布し、150℃で3分間乾燥を行い、粘着剤層を形成した。得られた粘着剤の貯蔵弾性率は、1.3×105(Pa)であった。
バインダー樹脂(アクリル系樹脂:共栄社化学社製、商品名:ライトアクリレートPE-3A)100部、カーボンブラック100部、および、粘度調整のための溶媒(メチルエチルケトン:MEK)200部を混合し、当該混合物を超音波による高分散化処理に供し、黒色インクを調製した。
製造例1で調製した低屈折率層形成用塗工液を厚さ30μmの基材(アクリルフィルム)に塗工した。塗工層のウェット厚み(乾燥させる前の厚み)は約27μmであった。該塗工層を、温度100℃で1分処理して乾燥し、基材上に低屈折率層(厚み0.9μm)を形成した。得られた低屈折率層の空隙率は58体積%であり、屈折率は1.18であった。次に、低屈折率層表面に製造例2で調製した粘着剤で構成される粘着剤層(厚み10μm)を形成し、さらに、基材表面に、製造例3で調製した黒色インクをグラビア印刷により印刷し、光吸収層(厚み3μm)を形成した。このようにして、光吸収層/基材/低屈折率層/粘着剤層の構成を有する光学粘着フィルム1を作製した。
光吸収層を形成しなかったこと以外は製造例4と同様にして、基材/低屈折率層/粘着剤層の構成を有する光学粘着フィルム2を作製した。
低屈折率層層を形成しなかったこと以外は製造例4と同様にして、光吸収層/基材/粘着剤層の構成を有する光学粘着フィルム3を作製した。
市販の液晶表示装置(KING JIM社製、商品名「XMC10」)からバックライトユニットを取り出した。取り出したバックライトユニット(実質的には、筐体)から導光板を取り出し、当該導光板の筐体前面部と接触する部分に製造例4で得られた光学粘着フィルム1を貼り合わせた。光学粘着フィルム1を貼り合わせた導光板を再びバックライトユニットに組み込み、このバックライトユニットを再び液晶表示装置に組み込んだ。得られた液晶表示装置を上記(2)および(3)の評価に供した。結果を表1に示す。
光学粘着フィルム1の代わりに製造例5で得られた光学粘着フィルム2を用いたこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、バックライトユニットを液晶表示装置に組み込んだ。得られた液晶表示装置を実施例1と同様の評価に供した。結果を表1に示す。
光学粘着フィルム1の代わりに製造例6で得られた光学粘着フィルム3を用いたこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、バックライトユニットを液晶表示装置に組み込んだ。得られた液晶表示装置を実施例1と同様の評価に供した。結果を表1に示す。
光学粘着フィルムを用いなかったこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、バックライトユニットを液晶表示装置に組み込んだ。すなわち、市販の液晶表示装置のバックライトユニットをそのまま用いた。この液晶表示装置を実施例1と同様の評価に供した。結果を表1に示す。
