The specific implementation methods of this utility model are given in detail in the following embodiments and their accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the anti-glare and anti-reflection optical film of this utility model.

[0018] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached figures:

[0019] 1—Substrate layer; 2—Anti-glare coating; 3—High refractive index coating; 4—Low refractive index coating. Detailed Implementation

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can implement it based on the description.

[0021] It should be understood that terms such as “having,” “comprising,” and “including” as used herein do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides an anti-glare and anti-reflection optical film, comprising a substrate layer 1, an anti-glare coating 2, a high refractive index coating 3, and a low refractive index coating 4, which are stacked sequentially.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the substrate layer 1 is a common optical substrate film, specifically a PET optical film with a thickness of 50-100μm.

[0024] In the preferred embodiment, the anti-glare coating 2 has an elongation at break < 5%, a water drop angle < 80°, a dyne value > 34, a steel wool abrasion resistance ≥ 1000 times, a haze 5%-8% (not including the end value), an indentation modulus > 7 GPa, and a thickness of the anti-glare coating 2 is 4-6 μm. The anti-glare effect can be provided by limiting the haze of the anti-glare coating 2; the elongation at break < 5% can ensure that the screen is bent and combined with the limitation of the indentation modulus (the indentation modulus > 7 GPa means that the elastic modulus is greater than 7 GPa at the indentation depth of 100 nm), the steel wool abrasion resistance of the final product can reach more than 2000 times; the water drop angle < 80° and the dyne value > 34 can ensure the bonding force between the coatings and good abrasion resistance stability.

[0025] In the preferred embodiment, the high refractive index coating 3 has a refractive index of 1.64-1.75, a water drop angle < 80°, a dyne value > 34, and a thickness of 100-120 nm. The high refractive index coating 3 provides high refractive index performance, as an intermediate coating, still needs to be a repeatable coating, so the water drop angle needs to be < 80°, the dyne value > 34, which can meet the requirements of the intermediate layer.

[0026] In the preferred embodiment, the low refractive index coating 4 has a refractive index of 1.35-1.45, a surface water drop angle ≥ 110°, and a thickness of 100-120 nm. The performance requirements of the low refractive index coating 4 are anti-glare, high water drop angle, low reflectivity, high abrasion resistance, and the coating is directly contacted with the user, which needs good smooth feeling, and the above parameters can better meet the requirements.

[0027] In the preferred embodiment, the anti-glare coating 2, the high refractive index coating 3 and the low refractive index coating 4 can be coated by polyurethane acrylate, epoxy acrylate, polyester acrylate glue, and the appropriate conventional glue product is selected according to the above parameter requirements of each coating, and the conventional coating process can be obtained, but it needs to be understood that the focus of the utility model is to provide an anti-glare anti-reflection optical film with the above structure and the above parameter characteristics, and the specific material used for the anti-glare anti-reflection optical film is not improved, and the specific preparation process is not limited. For example, the raw glue of each coating can be conventionally selected according to the following requirements:

[0028] The raw glue of the anti-glare coating 2 has a refractive index of 1.5-1.55, a solid content of 20%-40%, and a viscosity ≤ 100 cps (25 °C); the raw glue of the high refractive index coating 3 has a refractive index of 1.64-1.75, a solid content of 1%-5%, and a viscosity ≤ 50 cps (25 °C); and the raw glue of the low refractive index coating 4 has a refractive index of 1.35-1.45, a solid content of 1%-5%, and a viscosity ≤ 50 cps (25 °C).

[0029] The above is the overall concept of the present application, and the following provides detailed examples to further illustrate the present application. It should be noted that the specific preparation process of the anti-glare anti-reflective optical film is provided in the following examples, but this process is only a conventional choice to obtain the optical film with this structure, and does not improve the process itself.
