Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical films, and in particular to a high-brightness reflective sheet and a backlight module. Background Art

[0002] The backlight module is an important component of the liquid crystal display device. After the light source of the backlight module enters the light guide plate, the light source is provided to the LCD module upward, and the light is hit into the reflective sheet downward, and then rebounds back to the LCD module through the light guide plate. Therefore, a very important factor affecting the quality and quality of the backlight module is the light reflection utilization rate, that is, the brightness of the reflective film of the backlight module. At present, among the reflective sheets on the market, 3M's ESR reflective sheet is a reflective sheet with higher brightness. It uses polyester lamination technology to improve the brightness of the reflective sheet. Specifically, it uses film layers with different refractive indices to stack to produce optical reflection and improve brightness.

[0003] Since light has the property of sine wave (orthogonal wave), when light encounters an optical material made of stacked materials with different refractive indices and thicknesses, the way the light travels will change, for example, Figure 1 At the same time, the light waveform will change the state of the light wave due to loss, for example, the displacement of 1 / 4λ ahead or behind the original normal light wave in the direction of movement. The change of the state of the light wave, that is, when the light reaches the reflective layer of the reflector, different losses will be generated in the reflection direction and the penetration direction, thus affecting the brightness of the reflector. The existing reflector design penetrates PET and touches the silver layer for reflection. There is no optimization plan for the optical light path design. The two-layer composite film structure can no longer further improve the brightness. Summary of the invention

[0029] Figure 2 1 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a reflector according to an embodiment of the present invention. The high brightness reflector shown in the figure adjusts the reflection brightness gain of light by stacking a second adhesive layer 200 of a specific refractive index and a single material on the silver-plated film 300, and fixes the thickness of the stacked film layer of the reflector below the silver-plated film and the loss on the stacked film layer, thereby reducing the influence of the loss of the stacked film layer on the brightness of the reflector.

[0030] Please see attached Figure 2A high brightness reflective sheet according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a base film 100; a first adhesive layer 200, disposed on the surface of the base film 100 corresponding to the light incident surface of the high brightness reflective sheet; a silver-plated film 300, comprising a first substrate 301 and a silver-plated layer 302 disposed on the first substrate 301, wherein the first substrate 301 is bonded to the first adhesive layer 200; a second adhesive layer 400, disposed on the silver-plated layer 302; a light-transmitting film 500, bonded to the second adhesive layer 400; wherein The thickness of the first adhesive layer 200 is 3 to 5 μm, and the base film 100, the first adhesive layer 200 and the silver-plated film 300 are combined into a fixed stack film with a total thickness of 41 to 43 μm; the thickness of the second adhesive layer 400 is 3 to 5 μm, and the refractive index of the second adhesive layer 400 is 1.482 to 1.523; the thickness of the light-transmitting film 500 is 37 to 39 μm, and the haze value of the light-transmitting film 500 is 0.8 to 1, and the transmittance of the light-transmitting film 500 is greater than 88%.

[0031] In the above-mentioned high brightness reflector, by stacking the second adhesive layer 400 of a specific refractive index and a single material on the silver-plated film 300, the reflected brightness gain of the light is adjusted, and the brightness of the reflector is enhanced on the basis of the existing reflector, which solves the problem that the related technical field does not consider using a film material with a fixed refractive index to reduce loss and enhance the reflected brightness, and achieves the beneficial effect of enhancing the brightness of the reflector. At the same time, by stacking the fixed base film 100, the first adhesive layer 200 and the silver-plated film 300, the thickness of the fixed stack film below the silver-plated film 300 is fixed, and the loss of light on the fixed stack film is fixed, so as to reduce the influence of the overall thickness of the reflector on improving the brightness of the reflector.

[0032] It should be noted that the reference Figure 3 When light reaches the silver-plated film 300, the high-brightness reflector of the embodiment of the present invention is reflected back, and the light wave shape and the moving direction of the light change at the same time, resulting in loss at point P. When the light is transmitted to the fixed stack film composed of the silver-plated film 300, the first adhesive layer 200 and the base film 100 below point P, the loss is fixed because the overall thickness of the silver-plated film 300, the first adhesive layer 200 and the base film 100 and the refractive index of the material are fixed, thereby achieving the fixation of the loss below point P, and the research object of improving the brightness gain only considers the brightness gain above point P.

[0033] In some of the embodiments, in order to enhance the brightness gain of the high brightness reflective sheet, the second adhesive layer 400 is a UV light-cured pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

[0034] In this way, a single UV light-cured sub-sensitive adhesive layer is arranged on the high-brightness reflector, thereby solving the problem that the brightness gain adjustment of the reflector is difficult due to materials with different refractive indices.

[0035] In some embodiments, the thickness of the second glue layer 400 is 5 μm, and the refractive index thereof is 1.510; or, the thickness of the second glue layer 400 is 3 μm, and the refractive index thereof is 1.513.

[0039] The high brightness reflector in the embodiment of the present invention with a size of 118x65mm is used to compare the brightness increase with a conventional reflector (the reflector is a reflector that has been commercially sold by the inventor of the present application). The test voltage of the test backlight module is 19V, the current is 0.04A, and the brightness increase = (brightness value - 8601) / 8601, as shown in the following table:

[0040]

[0041]

[0042] According to the above test data, in this embodiment, the thickness of the second adhesive layer 400 is set to 5 μm, and the refractive index n is selected to be 1.510, and the maximum brightness increase of the reflector luminance can be obtained. In other optional embodiments, the thickness of the second adhesive layer 400 is set to 3 μm, and the refractive index n is selected to be 1.513, and the maximum brightness increase of the reflector luminance can also be obtained.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first adhesive layer 200 is a polyurethane resin adhesive layer.

[0046] In some embodiments, the light-transmitting film 500 is a PET transparent film, and the thickness of the light-transmitting film 500 is 38 μm.

[0047] In order to achieve a fixed silver film below 300, a fixed stack film thickness and a fixed stack film refractive index, refer to the attached Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 In some embodiments, the thickness of the base film 100 is 12 μm, and the base film 100 includes one of the following: PET white film, PET black film, and PET transparent film.

[0048] In order to further realize the fixed thickness of the stacked film below the silver-plated film 300 and the corresponding refractive index of the stacked film layer, refer to the attached Figure 5 In some embodiments, the base film 100 includes a second substrate 101, a second primer layer 102 disposed on the second substrate 101, an aluminum layer 103 evaporated or sputtered on the second primer layer 102, and a second protective layer 104 disposed on the aluminum layer 103, wherein the thickness of the base film 100 is 12 μm, the second substrate 101 is a PET substrate, the second primer layer 102 includes one of the following: a UV glue primer layer, a thermosetting resin primer layer, a polyester primer layer, a polyurethane primer layer, and / or the second protective layer 104 includes one of the following: a polyester protective layer, a polyurethane protective layer.
