Benefits of technology

[0035]If an ionic compound is added to a pressure-sensitive adhesive produced using an acryl-based polymer as a base polymer, an antistatic function can be provided to the pressure-sensitive adhesive. It is considered that in this case, the ionic compound can bleed out to the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, so that the antistatic function can be efficiently produced. On the other hand, if the ionic compound comes into contact with a polarizer, its optical properties such as the degree of polarization may be degraded.
[0036]The pressure-sensitive adhesive composition used to form the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer-attached polarizing film of the present invention contains a (meth)acryl-based polymer (A)and an alkali metal salt (B) capable of providing an antistatic function, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer made of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition has a good antistatic function. It has also been found that when the alkali metal salt (B) is used according to the present invention, an antistatic function can be provided without degradation of a polarizer.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer-attached polarizing film has a problem in which when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer contains an ionic compound for providing an antistatic function, the ionic compound in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can significantly affect the polarizer, so that, for example, when an ionic liquid or solid is used as the ionic compound, it may deteriorate the polarizer to significantly degrade the optical properties after a humidification test.
Also when a layer containing a conductive polymer such as polythiophene is provided between a polarizing film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer according to Patent Document 5, the polarizer and the optical properties will be deteriorated and degraded.

21 Preparation of Acryl-Based Polymer (A-1)>

[0147]To a four-neck flask equipped with a stirring blade, a thermometer, a nitrogen gas introducing tube, and a condenser were added a monomer mixture containing 82 parts of butyl acrylate, 15 parts of benzyl acrylate, and 3 parts of 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate. Based on 100 parts (solid basis) of the monomer mixture, 0.1 parts of 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile as a polymerization initiator was further added together with ethyl acetate. Nitrogen gas was introduced to replace the air, while the mixture was gently stirred, and then a polymerization reaction was performed for 7 hours, while the temperature of the liquid in the flask was kept at about 60° C. Subsequently, ethyl acetate was added to the resulting reaction liquid to adjust the solids content to 30%, so that a solution of an acryl-based polymer (A-1) with a weight average molecular weight of 1,000,000 was obtained.

production example 2

[0148]A solution of an acryl-based polymer (A-2) with a weight average molecular weight of 1,000,000 was prepared as in Production Example 1, except that a monomer mixture containing 76.8 parts of butyl acrylate, 10 parts of benzyl acrylate, 10 parts of phenoxyethyl acrylate, 3 parts of 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate, and 0.2 parts of acrylic acid was used instead.

production example 3

[0149]A solution of an acryl-based polymer (A-3) with a weight average molecular weight of 1,000,000 was prepared as in Production Example 1, except that a monomer mixture containing 81.9 parts of butyl acrylate, 13 parts of benzyl acrylate, 0.1 parts of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, and 5 parts of acrylic acid was used instead.
