Embodiment Construction

[0029] (Solution Film Making Equipment)

[0030] Optical film (hereinafter referred to simply as film) such as by figure 1 The solution film formation apparatus 10 shown is fabricated. The solution film forming facility 10 includes a casting device 12 , a clip tenter 13 , a drying device 15 , a cooling device 48 , and a winding device 17 .

[0031] The casting device 12 has a die unit 21 , a belt 22 , a first roll 23 , a second roll 24 , and a casting chamber 25 . The die unit 21 has a feed port 28 and a casting die 29 from which the dope 31 supplied to the feed port 28 continuously flows out. Details of the mold unit 21 will be described later using other drawings.

[0032] The belt 22 is an endless casting support formed in an endless shape, and is wound around the peripheral surfaces of the first roll 23 and the second roll 24 . The first roller 23 has a rotation shaft 23 a at the center of the circular side surface, and the rotation shaft 23 a is rotated in the circumf...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for manufacturing an optical film. A flow path (70), comprising a first part (71), a second part (72), and a third part (73), is formed inside a feeding head in the upstream of a tape casting mold. The first part (71) consists of a dividing part (71a), a shifting part (71b), and a converging and compressing part (71c), which are arranged sequentially from the upstream side, and so do the second part (72) and the third part (73). Concentrated liquid is delivered to the dividing part (71a) of the first part (71) and divided into multiple flows. The multiple divided concentrated liquid flows formed by division are delivered to the shifting part (71b) and shifted to be arranged along the thickness direction. Then, the flows are delivered to the converging and compressing part (71c) so as to be converged through layered superposition and compressed along the thickness direction. The layered concentrated liquid flow is delivered to the second part (72) and the third part (73), thereby increasing the layer number of the layered concentrated liquid flow and reducing the thickness of each layer. The layered concentrated liquid flow is supplied to the tape casting mold, dried, and formed into a film.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing an optical film. Background technique [0002] With the thinning of liquid crystal displays (LCDs), there is an increasing demand for thinning of the optical films constituting the LCD. Since the phase difference regarded as one of the optical characteristics of an optical film is expressed by the product of birefringence and thickness, it is necessary to control birefringence according to thickness. That is, it is necessary to increase the birefringence, especially the birefringence Rth in the thickness direction, in accordance with the thinning of the optical film. [0003] On the other hand, as a method for producing a film, there are a melt extrusion method and a solution film forming method. The melt extrusion method is a method of producing a film by extruding with an extruder after melting a polymer. The method has the characteristics of high productivity and low equipment cost. However, th...
