  • the produced optical laminate was evaluated for durability, which will be described later. As a result, as shown in Table 3 below, it was confirmed that cracks in the surface of the optical laminate were improved.
  • FIG. 6 shows the layer structure of the optical laminate.

  • FIG. 5 shows the layer structure of the optical laminate.
  • the produced optical laminate was evaluated for durability, which will be described later. As a result, as shown in Table 3 below, it was confirmed that cracks in the surface of the optical laminate were improved.
  • the liquid crystal layer acrylate polymer
  • the liquid crystal layer also serves as an organic intermediate layer, which suppresses the movement of the organic low-molecular-weight components of the adhesive, thereby improving cracks. I thought.
  • Re (550) and Rth (550) in total of the retardation layer show the content of the organic low-molecular-weight components and the content of organic low-molecular-weight components having a molecular weight of 32 to 200 or less in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer before and after the durability test.
