  • Example 7 Molten polyethylene terephthalate was melted at 290 ° C., extruded through a film-forming die, into a sheet form, closely contacted on a water-cooled cooled quenching drum, and cooled to produce an unstretched film. This unstretched film was preheated at 120 ° C. for 1 minute using a biaxial stretching test apparatus (manufactured by Toyo Seiki Co., Ltd.), then stretched at 120 ° C. at a stretch ratio of 3.5 times, and then an intermediate layer on both surfaces. The composition 3 was applied uniformly with a roll coater.
  • the film thickness of the intermediate layer was 20 nm.
  • the functional layer composition 3 was applied onto the formed intermediate layer with a bar coater, dried at 70 ° C. for 1 minute, and the solvent was removed to form a coating film.
  • the coating film was irradiated with ultraviolet rays at an irradiation amount of 150 mJ / cm 2 using an ultraviolet irradiation device [manufactured by Fusion UV System Japan Co., Ltd .: H bulb (trade name)], and the film thickness after drying and curing was 6.0 ⁇ m.
  • a functional layer was formed to produce a laminate.
  • Example 8 A laminate of Example 8 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 7 except that the film thickness of the intermediate layer was 30 nm.
  • Example 9 A laminate of Example 9 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 7 except that the thickness of the intermediate layer was 40 nm.
  • Example 10 A laminate of Example 10 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 7 except that the intermediate layer composition 4 was used instead of the intermediate layer composition 3.
  • the film thickness of the intermediate layer was 18 nm.
  • Example 11 A laminate of Example 11 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 10 except that the thickness of the intermediate layer was 30 nm.
  • Example 12 A laminate of Example 12 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 10 except that the thickness of the intermediate layer was 35 nm.
  • Comparative Example 5 A laminate of Comparative Example 5 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 7 except that the thickness of the intermediate layer was set to 70 nm.
  • Comparative Example 6 A laminate of Comparative Example 6 was manufactured in the same manner as Example 10 except that the thickness of the intermediate layer was set to 70 nm.
  • the presence or absence of interference fringes was evaluated according to the following criteria.
  • the sample was evaluated by reflection observation by painting the opposite side of the coated surface with black ink and applying a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp to the coated surface.
  • Table 2 shows the evaluation results in which the evaluation criteria are set as follows. A: Although carefully observed, the occurrence of interference fringes could not be visually confirmed. B: When observed carefully, very thin interference fringes that do not cause a problem in actual use were observed. C: Interference fringes are clearly observed.
