Acrylic resin composition

Abstract

An acrylic resin composition comprising the following acrylic resins (1) and (2): acrylic resin (1): an acrylic resin containing a structural unit derived from a monomer (a) (structural unit (a)) and a structural unit derived from a monomer (b) (structural unit (b)); acrylic resin (2): an acrylic resin having a molecular weight of 1,100,000 to 1,500,000, and containing the structural unit (a) as the main component and a structural unit derived from a monomer (c) (structural unit (c)) and substantially not containing the structural unit (b); (a): a (meth)acrylate of the formula (A) (wherein, R1 represents a hydrogen atom or methyl group, R2 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms or an aralkyl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms, and a hydrogen atom in the alkyl group R2 or a hydrogen atom in the aralkyl group R2 may be substituted with an alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms.), (b): a monomer containing an olefinic double bond in the molecule and at least one 5- or more-membered heterocyclic group in the molecule, (c): a monomer not containing 5- or more-membered heterocyclic group and containing one olefinic double bond and at least one polar functional group selected from the group consisting of a carboxyl group, hydroxyl group, amide group, amino group, epoxy group, oxetanyl group, aldehyde group and isocyanate group in the molecule.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to an acrylic resin composition. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Liquid crystal cells generally used in liquid crystal displays such as a TN liquid crystal cell (TFT), a STN liquid crystal cell (STN) and the like, have a structure in which a liquid crystal component is sandwiched between two glass base materials. On the surface of the glass base material, an optical film such as a polarizing film, phase retardation film and the like is laminated via an adhesive composed mainly of an acrylic resin. An optical laminate composed of a glass base material, adhesive and optical film laminated in this order is in general produced by a method in which first an optical laminated film having an adhesive layer composed of an adhesive laminated on an optical film is obtained, and then, a glass base material is laminated on the surface of the adhesive layer. [0003] Such an optical laminated film tends to generate curl and t...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide an acrylic resin composition capable of producing an optical laminated film used in a liquid crystal cell in which light leakage is suppressed and durability is improved.

Problems solved by technology

Such an optical laminated film tends to generate curl and the like due to large dimension change by expansion and shrinkage under heating or moistening and heating conditions, consequently, there are problems such as occurrence of foaming in an adhesive layer of the resulted optical laminate, generation of peeling between an adhesive layer and a glass base material, and the like.

Under heating or moistening and heating conditions, distribution of remaining stress acting on an optical laminated film becomes non-uniform, concentration of stress occurs around peripheral parts of an optical laminate, consequently, there is a problem that light leakage occurs in a TN liquid crystal cell (TFT).

However, there is a problem that, when a liquid crystal cell obtained by using an optical laminate having an adhesive layer made of an adhesive mainly composed of an acrylic resin having a structural unit derived from N-vinylpyrrolidone is preserved under moistening and heating conditions, light leakage occurs and durability becomes worse.
