Description

  The present invention relates to an antiglare film.

  Conventionally, an anti-glare film is sometimes used in an image display device for the purpose of preventing a decrease in contrast due to reflection of external light, reflection of an image, or the like. In recent years, with the increase in definition of image display devices, there has been a problem that glare caused by an antiglare film occurs. Specifically, when a conventional anti-glare film is applied to a high-definition image display device, luminance variations existing in pixels are emphasized, and glare is likely to occur.

  As a technique for solving the above problem, a technique for increasing the internal haze of an antiglare film has been proposed. However, in this technique, it is necessary to further increase the internal haze for further high definition required in recent years, and there is a possibility that it is not suitable for practical use from the viewpoint of transparency.

  In addition, in an image display device having a configuration in which a relatively thick glass or the like is disposed on the back side of an antiglare film, for example, an in-vehicle image display device that requires heat resistance (for example, a car navigation monitor, an instrument panel monitor, etc.) The glare problem is more noticeable.

  Thus, in an image display device that requires high definition and heat resistance, application of an antiglare film that can further suppress glare while maintaining antiglare properties and transparency is required.

A. Antiglare Film FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an antiglare film according to one embodiment of the present invention. The antiglare film 100 includes a transparent substrate 10 and an antiglare layer 20 disposed on at least one surface of the transparent substrate 10. Typically, the transparent substrate 10 is composed of a resin film. The antiglare layer 30 is typically formed by coating a resin film with a composition for forming an antiglare layer.

Although not shown, the antiglare film may further include an antireflection layer on the surface of the antiglare layer opposite to the transparent substrate. The antireflection layer can be formed by any appropriate method.

  FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an antiglare film according to another embodiment of the present invention. The antiglare film 100 ′ includes a transparent base material 10 and an antiglare layer 30 disposed on at least one side of the transparent base material 10, and an intermediate layer is provided between the transparent base material 10 and the antiglare layer 30. 1 is formed.

The antiglare layer-forming composition contains a binder resin (or a binder resin precursor) and particles, and the antiglare layer 30 formed from such an antiglare layer-forming composition comprises binder resin and particles. Including. The intermediate layer 1 is typically formed by penetrating the resin film with a composition for forming an antiglare layer. When the antiglare layer forming composition is applied to the resin film to form the antiglare layer, the material constituting the resin film may be eluted into the antiglare layer forming composition. Thus, the part formed by elution of the material constituting the resin film also corresponds to the intermediate layer 1. That is, the intermediate layer 1 can include at least a part of the material constituting the transparent substrate 10 and at least a part of the binder resin included in the antiglare layer 30. The intermediate layer 1 may be a layer formed by mixing the material constituting the transparent substrate 10 and the binder resin contained in the antiglare layer 30.

In addition, the measurement of haze is performed using the surface opposite to the transparent substrate of the antiglare layer as the light exit surface. The internal haze refers to the haze measured in a state where the influence on the haze of the surface of the antiglare layer (light emission side at the time of haze measurement) is eliminated. For example, a triacetyl cellulose (TAC) film is attached to the surface on the light emission side, whereby the surface unevenness of the antiglare layer is crushed to produce an evaluation sample that is a flat layer, and the haze of the evaluation sample Can be an internal haze. That is, the evaluation sample having a flat surface has no internal haze and no haze due to surface irregularities. Therefore, the haze of this evaluation sample can be measured to determine the internal haze. In addition, as a sample for evaluation, a resin (for example, pentaerythritol triacrylate) was diluted with toluene or the like on the light emitting side surface, and a solution having a solid content of 60% by weight was applied to a dry film thickness of 8 μm. An evaluation sample may be used. In addition, when the leveling agent or the like is contained in the composition for forming the antiglare layer and the recoat agent is easily repelled and difficult to wet, the antiglare film is preliminarily saponified (2 mol / l NaOH (or KOH) The solution is preferably immersed in 55 ° C. for 3 minutes, washed with water, and then completely removed, and then dried in a 50 ° oven for 1 minute).

  The solid content concentration of the composition for forming an antiglare layer is preferably 20% by weight to 80% by weight, more preferably 25% by weight to 60% by weight, and further preferably 30% by weight to 50% by weight. is there. If it is such a range, the uneven | corrugated surface of a preferable shape can be obtained and an external haze can be adjusted appropriately.

  The composition for forming an antiglare layer may further contain any appropriate additive. Examples of additives include leveling agents, anti-blocking agents, dispersion stabilizers, thixotropic agents, antioxidants, UV absorbers, antifoaming agents, thickeners, dispersants, surfactants, catalysts, lubricants, and electrification. An inhibitor etc. are mentioned.

  The antiglare layer can be obtained by applying the antiglare layer forming composition to a transparent substrate and then curing it. Any appropriate method can be adopted as a method for applying the composition for forming an antiglare layer. Examples thereof include a bar coating method, a roll coating method, a gravure coating method, a rod coating method, a slot orifice coating method, a curtain coating method, a fountain coating method, and a comma coating method.

  In one embodiment, after the composition for forming an antiglare layer is applied to a transparent substrate, before the curing (or during the curing process), the transparent substrate on which the coating layer is formed is inclined or Rotate. When the composition for forming an antiglare layer contains a cohesive filler, by performing such an operation, the contact between the cohesive fillers is promoted, and the cohesive filler can be appropriately aggregated (shear aggregation). it can. For example, the aggregation state of the cohesive filler can be controlled by adjusting the inclination angle or the rotation speed in the above inclination or rotation.

Arbitrary appropriate hardening processing may be employ | adopted as a hardening method of the said composition for anti-glare layer formation. Typically, the curing process is performed by ultraviolet irradiation. Integrated light quantity of ultraviolet irradiation is preferably ^{50mJ / cm 2 ~500mJ / cm 2} .

C. Transparent substrate The transparent substrate may be formed from a resin film. Any appropriate substrate (resin film) may be used as the transparent substrate (resin film) as long as it has visible light transmittance. Examples of the material constituting the transparent substrate (resin film) include triacetyl cellulose (TAC), polycarbonate, acrylic polymer, cyclic polyolefin, polyolefin having a norbornene structure, and polyethylene terephthalate.

  The thickness of the transparent substrate is preferably 10 μm to 500 μm, more preferably 20 μm to 300 μm, and still more preferably 30 μm to 100 μm. In addition, when the intermediate | middle layer is not formed in the glare-proof film, the thickness of a transparent base material is equivalent to the thickness of the said resin film. Moreover, when the intermediate | middle layer is formed in the anti-glare film, the thickness of a transparent base material is equivalent to the thickness of the part in which the intermediate | middle layer in the said resin film is not formed.

The SP value of the resin constituting the resin film is preferably 10 (cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 or more, more preferably 15 (cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 or more, and even more preferably 20 ( cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 or more. Within such a range, an intermediate layer having an appropriate thickness can be formed. The upper limit of the SP value of the resin is, for example, 30 (cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 or less, preferably 28 (cal / cm ³ ) ^1/2 or less, more preferably 25 (cal / cm ^3). ) ^1/2 or less. In one embodiment, the difference between the SP value of the solvent contained in the antiglare layer forming composition and the SP value of the resin constituting the resin film (resin SP value−solvent SP value) is preferably -10~20 (cal ^/ cm ^{3) 1/2,} more preferably ^{5~20 (cal / cm 3) 1/2} , 10~15 (cal / cm 3) ^1/2.

  The refractive index of the transparent substrate is preferably 1.30 to 1.80.

D. Intermediate layer As described above, an intermediate layer may be formed between the transparent substrate and the antiglare layer.

  The thickness of the intermediate layer (thickness b in FIG. 2) is preferably 0.1% to 123% with respect to the thickness of the antiglare layer (thickness a in FIG. 2). The lower limit of the thickness ratio of the intermediate layer to the thickness of the antiglare layer is preferably 1%, more preferably 3%. Further, the upper limit of the thickness ratio of the intermediate layer to the thickness of the antiglare layer is preferably 100%, more preferably 85%, and further preferably 65%. The thickness of the intermediate layer, the antiglare layer and the transparent substrate is measured by observing the cross section of the antiglare film with a microscope (for example, TEM) and specifying the interface between the intermediate layer, the resin layer and the adhesive layer. obtain. A predetermined analysis method (for example, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry) may be used for specifying the interface.

  In the present invention, an antiglare film having a higher glare-suppressing effect can be obtained by controlling the ratio so that the thickness of the intermediate layer formed when the antiglare layer is formed does not become too thick. . Even when the antiglare film of the present invention is applied to a high-definition image display device, it can exhibit an excellent glare-suppressing effect. In addition, the antiglare film of the present invention hardly causes glare even if the internal haze of the antiglare layer is relatively small, and therefore has excellent transparency. Furthermore, when the ratio of the thickness of the intermediate layer to the thickness of the antiglare layer is 123% or less, an antiglare layer having excellent scratch resistance can be formed.

  Further, by setting the ratio of the thickness of the intermediate layer to the thickness of the antiglare layer to be 3% or more (more preferably 10% or more), the above particles are present in the antiglare layer with good dispersibility (in a state of less aggregation). As a result, an antiglare film capable of suppressing glare can be obtained.

  The thickness of the intermediate layer is preferably 0.1 μm to 30 μm, more preferably 0.3 μm to 20 μm, still more preferably 1 μm to 10 μm, and particularly preferably 1.5 μm to 5 μm.

D. Image Display Device FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of an image display device using the antiglare film of the present invention. In FIG. 3, a part (viewing side) of the image display apparatus 200 is shown. The image display device 200 includes an antiglare film 100 and an image display cell 30. Preferably, the antiglare film 100 is disposed with the transparent substrate 10 facing the image display cell 30 side. Any appropriate optical member A can be disposed between the antiglare film 100 and the image display cell 30, and a predetermined gap X is formed between the antiglare layer 10 and the image display cell 30. Examples of the optical member A include a glass substrate, a polarizing plate, a retardation film, an adhesive layer, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. A single optical member may be disposed between the antiglare film 100 and the image display cell 30, or a plurality of types of optical members may be disposed.

  Any appropriate image display cell may be used as the image display cell. For example, when the image display device is a liquid crystal display device, a liquid crystal cell corresponds to the image display cell, and when the image display device is an organic EL image display device, an organic EL element corresponds to the image display cell. A liquid crystal cell typically has a pair of substrates and a liquid crystal layer as a display medium disposed between the substrates.

  The gap X between the antiglare layer and the image display cell in the antiglare film is preferably 50 μm to 800 μm. In one embodiment, the gap X of the image display device is 100 μm or more. The antiglare film of the present invention can suppress glare even when the gap X is large. The gap X between the antiglare layer and the image display cell in the antiglare film is the back surface of the antiglare layer (surface on the image display cell side) and the viewing side surface (surface on the antiglare film side) of the image display cell. It means the distance to make. Therefore, the gap X includes the total thickness of the optical member A (for example, the total thickness of the polarizing plate, the glass substrate and / or the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer) disposed between the antiglare film 100 and the image display cell 30, and the antiglare. This corresponds to the total thickness of the transparent substrate (a transparent substrate and an intermediate layer when an intermediate layer is formed) in the film. Further, when the image display cell is a liquid crystal cell, the gap X is the distance between the viewing side surface of the viewing side substrate provided in the liquid crystal cell and the back surface of the antiglare layer.

  The antiglare film of the present invention includes not only an image display device having a small gap X but also an image display device having a large gap X (for example, a relatively thick glass substrate (for example, a glass substrate having a thickness of 100 μm to 800 μm)). ) Is also preferably used. Conventionally, in applications that require heat resistance, strength, and the like (for example, in-vehicle applications), the heat resistance is increased by increasing the thickness of the glass substrate. However, the inventors of the present invention have found that as the glass substrate is made thicker, that is, as the gap X is made thicker, the glare that occurs when an antiglare film is applied increases. . That is, the anti-glare film of the present invention can solve the problem and can be suitably used for an image display device for in-vehicle use. Moreover, the effect of using the anti-glare film of this invention becomes more remarkable with respect to a high-definition image display apparatus.

  The image display device may further include any appropriate member. For example, it may further include a polarizing plate, an optical film, a backlight and the like provided on the back side of the image display cell.
