Problems solved by technology

PC has excellent heat resistance, but poor formability, it is difficult to form high-definition patterns, and there are problems such as residual optical distortion after molding
On the other hand, there are examples of PMMA that can form a high-definition and high-aspect-ratio structure by reducing the molecular weight, but it lacks mechanical strength and is brittle as a sheet, so there are problems in practical use
[0007] In addition, polyester is a promising material because of its excellent cost, mechanical strength, and melt-film-forming properties. However, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has a high Tm and poor formability due to its crystallinity. Mold temperature must be increased for molding, 1. Mold heating, 2. Imprint molding, 3. Mold cooling, 4. Mold peeling cycle takes a long time, low productivity, and low Tg, so it has low heat resistance The problem

Abstract

A polyester resin composition characterized by having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 83 DEG C or higher and a melting point (Tm) of 230 DEG C or lower and having controlled crystallizability. This polyester has excellent surface thermoformability. In particular, the surface of the polyester can be formed into various shapes, e.g., a shape having ultrahigh fineness or a high aspect ratio. The polyester is for use as a thermoformed optical film excellent in heat resistance and transparency.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a polyester for thermoforming optical films that is excellent in thermoformability to the surface, can be formed into various shapes such as ultra-high definition and high aspect ratio, and is excellent in heat resistance and transparency. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, glass with excellent transparency and low birefringence has been often used for optical elements. However, glass has poor formability and it is difficult to achieve weight reduction. Therefore, according to the characteristics, polymer materials with excellent formability, light weight, and easy property control have recently been used in optical disk substrates, lenses, cables, and films for various displays. . [0003] On the other hand, in recent years, centering on the field of optics, the importance of techniques for forming fine surface structures has been increasing. Photolithography is a representative technology of fine processi...
