Description

Optical laminate and image display device

[0001] The present invention relates to an optical laminate and an image display device.

[0002] In many image display devices (liquid crystal display devices, organic EL display devices, quantum dot display devices, etc.), a polarizing film is disposed on at least one side of a display cell due to the image formation method used. It is widely known that the polarizing film disposed on the viewing side of the image display device is provided with an optical member such as an anti-reflection layer or an anti-glare layer on the viewing side to prevent reflection or glare of external light on the display screen (Patent Document 1).

[0003] Foldable image display devices, such as laptop computers, that have an image display unit disposed on the inside when folded are widely used. However, if such an image display device is folded with a foreign object trapped inside, a local load caused by the foreign object is applied to the image display unit. This local load can damage a polarizing film or the like, resulting in a problem of light leakage in the image display unit.

[0004] In order to suppress the occurrence of light leakage in the image display section due to a local load, it is conceivable to increase the resistance to the load by, for example, hardening the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer disposed on the viewing side of the polarizing film. However, when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is hardened, the viscosity decreases, resulting in a problem of peeling between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and an adjacent layer.

[0007] [1] An optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention is an optical laminate including a polarizing film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and is subjected to a piercing test using a piercing jig having a tip end with a radius of curvature R of 550 μm, and wherein the load after reaching a maximum load Fp (kgf) and maintaining it for 15 seconds is defined as F (kgf), the amount of displacement at the time when the maximum load Fp (kgf) is reached is defined as L (μm), and the total thickness of the optical laminate is defined as T (μm), the residual stress attenuation rate ΔF (%) calculated by formula (1) and the maximum strain rate ΔL (%) calculated by formula (2) satisfy at least one of ΔF≦42 and ΔL<80. Formula (1): ΔF=[(Fp−F) / Fp]×100 Formula (2): ΔL=(L / T)×100 [2] In the optical laminate according to the above item [1], the total thickness of the optical laminate may be 200 μm or more. [3] The optical laminate according to [1] or [2] above may further include a first optical member bonded to the viewing side of the polarizing film via a first adhesive layer.

[0010] [Terminology] In this specification, when the expression "weight" appears, it may be read as "mass," which is commonly used as an SI unit indicating weight, and vice versa.

[0011] In this specification, the expression "(meth)acrylic" means "acrylic and / or methacrylic", the expression "(meth)acrylate" means "acrylate and / or methacrylate", the expression "(meth)allyl" means "allyl and / or methallyl", and the expression "(meth)acrolein" means "acrolein and / or methacrolein".

[0012] In this specification, with regard to the refractive indices (nx, ny, nz), "nx" is the refractive index in the direction in which the in-plane refractive index is maximum (i.e., the slow axis direction), "ny" is the refractive index in the in-plane direction perpendicular to the slow axis (i.e., the fast axis direction), and "nz" is the refractive index in the thickness direction. In this specification, nx, ny, and nz are values ​​for light with a wavelength of 550 nm.

[0013] In this specification, with regard to the in-plane retardation (Re), "Re(λ)" is the in-plane retardation of a film measured with light having a wavelength of λ nm at 23° C. For example, "Re(550)" is the in-plane retardation of a film measured with light having a wavelength of 550 nm at 23° C. Re(λ) can be calculated by the formula: Re=(nx-ny)×d, where d (nm) is the thickness of the film.

[0014] In this specification, with regard to the thickness direction retardation (Rth), "Rth(λ)" is the retardation in the thickness direction of a film measured with light having a wavelength of λ nm at 23° C. For example, "Rth(550)" is the retardation in the thickness direction of a film measured with light having a wavelength of 550 nm at 23° C. Rth(λ) is calculated by the formula: Rth=(nx-nz)×d, where d (nm) is the thickness of the film.

[0015] In this specification, the "Nz coefficient" is calculated by Nz=Rth / Re.

[0016] When angles are referred to herein, unless otherwise specified, the angles include angles in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions.

[0017] <<1. Optical Laminate>> An optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention is an optical laminate including a polarizing film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention may include any appropriate other member as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired, as long as the optical laminate includes a polarizing film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. In this specification, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer means at least one layer selected from the group consisting of a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and an adhesive layer.

[0018] An optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention is subjected to a piercing test using a piercing jig having a tip curvature radius R of 550 μm, and when the load after reaching the maximum load Fp (kgf) and maintaining it for 15 seconds is defined as F (kgf), the amount of displacement when the maximum load Fp (kgf) is reached is defined as L (μm), and the total thickness of the optical laminate is defined as T (μm), the residual stress attenuation rate ΔF (%) calculated by formula (1) and the maximum strain rate ΔL (%) calculated by formula (2) satisfy at least one of ΔF≦42 and ΔL<80. Formula (1): ΔF=[(Fp−F) / Fp]×100 Formula (2): ΔL=(L / T)×100

[0019] In the embodiment of the present invention, as described above, it is sufficient to satisfy at least one of ΔF≦42 and ΔL<80. Therefore, when ΔL<80, ΔF may be greater than 42, and when ΔF≦42, ΔL may be greater than 80.

[0020] The load F is an index of the residual stress due to the puncture test. When the residual stress is large, i.e., when the residual stress attenuation factor ΔF is small, the deformation due to the puncture test is likely to return to its original state after the load is released. From this, it was thought that the occurrence of light leakage due to a local applied load could be suppressed by appropriately adjusting the residual stress attenuation factor ΔF, and as a result of extensive investigations, it was found that the occurrence of light leakage due to a local applied load could be suppressed by setting ΔF to a predetermined amount or less. Furthermore, it was thought that when peeling occurs between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the adjacent layer, the applied load in the puncture test is dispersed depending on the peeled portion, resulting in a small measured residual stress. As a result of extensive investigations, it was found that the occurrence of peeling between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the adjacent layer could be suppressed by setting ΔF to a predetermined amount or less.

[0021] ΔF is preferably ΔF≦90, more preferably ΔF≦50, even more preferably ΔF≦42, even more preferably ΔF≦40, even more preferably ΔF≦38, even more preferably ΔF≦36, particularly preferably ΔF≦34, and most preferably ΔF≦32. The smaller ΔF is the better, but ΔF may be 1≦ΔF, 5≦ΔF, 10≦ΔF, 15≦ΔF, or 20≦ΔF.

[0022] The displacement L is an index of the resistance to deformation in the piercing test. Furthermore, we conducted extensive research, based on the idea that small deformation, i.e., a small maximum strain rate ΔL, would reduce damage to the polarizing film and other components due to localized applied loads. As a result, we found that even if the residual stress decay rate ΔF is large, by appropriately adjusting ΔL, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of light leakage due to localized applied loads.

[0023] ΔL is preferably ΔL≦98, more preferably ΔL≦95, even more preferably ΔL≦90, even more preferably ΔL≦85, even more preferably ΔL≦80, even more preferably ΔL<80, even more preferably ΔL≦77, even more preferably ΔL≦75, even more preferably ΔL≦70, even more preferably ΔL≦65, particularly preferably ΔL≦60, and most preferably ΔL≦55. The smaller ΔL is, the better, but it may be 1≦ΔL, 10≦ΔL, 20≦ΔL, 30≦ΔL, or 40≦ΔL.

[0024]

[0046] From the above-mentioned studies, it has been found that in the embodiments of the present invention, the effects of the present invention are exerted by satisfying at least one of ΔF≦42 and ΔL<80, and the optical laminate according to the embodiments of the present invention can suppress the occurrence of light leakage in the image display section due to a localized applied load, and can suppress peeling between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the layer adjacent thereto.

The panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60 is disposed on the opposite side of the second retardation film 50 from the first retardation film 40. When the optical laminate 100 includes the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60, the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60 enables the optical laminate 100 to be attached to an image display cell. That is, the optical laminate 100 shown in FIG. 1 has a configuration of, in order from the viewing side, a first optical member 31 / a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 21 / a polarizing film 10 / a first retardation film 40 / a second retardation film 50 / a panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60.

[0026] FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an optical laminate according to another embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 2, the polarizing film 10 may further include, in this order from the polarizing film 10 side, a first retardation film 40 and a second retardation film 50 on the side opposite the viewing side. As shown in FIG. 2, the optical laminate 100 may further include a panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60. The panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60 is disposed on the opposite side of the second retardation film 50 from the first retardation film 40. When the optical laminate 100 includes the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60, the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60 enables the optical laminate 100 to be attached to an image display cell. That is, the optical laminate 100 shown in FIG. 2 has a configuration of, in order from the viewing side, a first optical member 31 / a first adhesive layer 21 / a second optical member 32 / a second adhesive layer 22 / a polarizing film 10 / a first retardation film 40 / a second retardation film 50 / a panel-side adhesive layer 60.

[0027] Fig. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an optical laminate according to yet another embodiment of the present invention. The optical laminate 100 shown in Fig. 3 includes a polarizing film 10, a third optical member 33 bonded to the viewing side of the polarizing film 10 via a third adhesive layer 23, a second optical member 32 bonded to the viewing side of the third optical member 33 via a second adhesive layer 22, and a first optical member 31 bonded to the viewing side of the second optical member 32 via a first adhesive layer 21. As shown in Fig. 3, the polarizing film 10 may further include, in order from the polarizing film 10 side, a first retardation film 40 and a second retardation film 50 on the side opposite the viewing side. As shown in Fig. 3, the optical laminate 100 may further include a panel-side adhesive layer 60. The panel-side adhesive layer 60 is disposed on the opposite side of the first retardation film 40 with respect to the second retardation film 50. When the optical laminate 100 includes the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60, the optical laminate 100 can be attached to an image display cell by the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 60. That is, the optical laminate 100 shown in Fig. 3 has a configuration of, in order from the viewing side, a first optical member 31 / a first adhesive layer 21 / a second optical member 32 / a second adhesive layer 22 / a third optical member 33 / a third adhesive layer 23 / a polarizing film 10 / a first retardation film 40 / a second retardation film 50 / a panel-side adhesive layer 60.

[0028] The optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention may have any appropriate configuration as long as it includes a polarizing film and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, but representative configurations are those shown in Figures 1 to 3 above, with the configuration shown in Figure 1 being particularly preferred. The configuration shown in Figure 1 (configuration of first optical member 31 / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 21 / polarizing film 10) can reduce the number of components provided between the first optical member 31 and the polarizing film 10, which can be advantageous from the standpoints of cost and the environment. For example, the configuration shown in Figure 1 is preferred because it reduces the number of lamination steps required for the optical laminate.

[0029] The total thickness of the optical laminate 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may be any appropriate total thickness as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. In order to further exhibit the effects of the present invention, the total thickness of the optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention is preferably 200 μm or more, more preferably 200 μm to 330 μm, even more preferably 220 μm to 310 μm, particularly preferably 250 μm to 300 μm, and most preferably 260 μm to 290 μm.

[0030] In the optical laminate 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, any appropriate total thickness may be adopted as the thickness of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 21 as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. In terms of further exhibiting the effects of the present invention, the thickness of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 21 is preferably 5 μm to 200 μm, more preferably 5 μm to 170 μm, even more preferably 5 μm to 150 μm, particularly preferably 5 μm to 130 μm, and most preferably 5 μm to 110 μm.

[0031] In the optical laminate 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, any appropriate total thickness may be adopted as the thickness of the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 22 as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. In terms of further exhibiting the effects of the present invention, the thickness of the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 22 is preferably 5 μm to 20 μm, more preferably 5 μm to 17 μm, even more preferably 5 μm to 16 μm, particularly preferably 5 μm to 15 μm, and most preferably 5 μm to 14 μm.

[0032] In the optical laminate 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, any appropriate total thickness may be adopted as the thickness of the third adhesive layer 23 as long as it does not impair the effects of the present invention. In terms of further exhibiting the effects of the present invention, the thickness of the third adhesive layer 23 is preferably 5 μm to 20 μm, more preferably 5 μm to 17 μm, even more preferably 5 μm to 16 μm, particularly preferably 5 μm to 15 μm, and most preferably 5 μm to 14 μm.

[0033] Any appropriate refractive index characteristic can be adopted as the refractive index characteristic of the first retardation film 40 as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. The refractive index characteristic of such a first retardation film 40 is preferably a refractive index characteristic of nx>ny>nz. Such a refractive index characteristic can impart a desired optical compensation function to the optical laminate 100.

[0034] Any appropriate refractive index characteristic can be adopted as the refractive index characteristic of the second retardation film 50 as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. The refractive index characteristic of such a second retardation film 50 is preferably nz>nx>ny. Such a refractive index characteristic can impart a desired optical compensation function to the optical laminate 100.

[0035] The components of the optical laminate will be described below.

[0036] 1-2. Polarizing Film The polarizing film 10 typically includes a polarizer and a protective layer disposed on the viewing side of the polarizer. The protective layer is typically attached to the viewing side of the polarizer via any appropriate pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (not shown). That is, the polarizing film 10 may be composed of a polarizer, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a protective layer.

[0037] 1 as an example, the protective layer is located between the polarizer and the first adhesive layer 21 and is in contact with the first adhesive layer 21. The protective layer may be pressure-sensitively bonded to the first adhesive layer 21. The polarizing film 10 may further include a second protective layer on the side opposite to the viewing side of the polarizer.

[0038] <1-2-a. Polarizer> Any appropriate polarizer can be used as the polarizer. For example, the resin film forming the polarizer may be a single-layer resin film or a laminate of two or more layers.

[0039] A specific example of a polarizer composed of a single-layer resin film is a PVA-based resin film that has been subjected to a dyeing treatment with iodine and a stretching treatment (typically, uniaxial stretching). Dyeing with iodine is performed, for example, by immersing the PVA-based resin film in an iodine aqueous solution. The stretching ratio is preferably 3 to 7 times. Stretching may be performed after the dyeing treatment or while dyeing. Alternatively, the film may be dyed after stretching. If necessary, the PVA-based resin film may be subjected to a swelling treatment, a crosslinking treatment, a washing treatment, a drying treatment, or the like. For example, by immersing the PVA-based resin film in water and washing it before dyeing, it is possible to clean off stains and antiblocking agents on the surface of the PVA-based resin film and also to swell the PVA-based resin film, thereby preventing uneven dyeing and the like.

[0040] Specific examples of polarizers composed of a laminate of two or more layers include a polarizer composed of a laminate of a resin substrate and a PVA-based resin layer (PVA-based resin film) laminated on the resin substrate, or a polarizer composed of a laminate of a resin substrate and a PVA-based resin layer coated on the resin substrate. A polarizer composed of a laminate of a resin substrate and a PVA-based resin layer coated on the resin substrate can be produced, for example, by applying a PVA-based resin solution to the resin substrate and drying the solution to form a PVA-based resin layer on the resin substrate, thereby obtaining a laminate of the resin substrate and the PVA-based resin layer, and then stretching and dyeing the laminate to form the PVA-based resin layer into a polarizer. In a preferred embodiment, a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin layer containing a halide and a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin is formed on one side of the resin substrate. Stretching typically involves immersing the laminate in an aqueous boric acid solution to stretch it. Furthermore, the stretching may further include, if necessary, in-air stretching of the laminate at a high temperature (e.g., 95°C or higher) before stretching in the boric acid aqueous solution. In addition, in a preferred embodiment, the laminate is subjected to a drying shrinkage treatment in which the laminate is heated while being transported in the longitudinal direction, thereby shrinking the laminate by 2% or more in the width direction. Typically, the laminate is subjected to an in-air auxiliary stretching treatment, a dyeing treatment, an underwater stretching treatment, and a drying shrinkage treatment, in this order. By introducing auxiliary stretching, it is possible to increase the crystallinity of the PVA, even when the PVA is coated on a thermoplastic resin, thereby achieving high optical properties. Furthermore, by simultaneously increasing the orientation of the PVA in advance, problems such as a decrease in orientation or dissolution of the PVA when immersed in water in the subsequent dyeing or stretching steps can be prevented, thereby achieving high optical properties. Furthermore, when the PVA-based resin layer is immersed in a liquid, the disordering of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules and the decrease in orientation can be suppressed compared to when the PVA-based resin layer does not contain a halide. This can improve the optical properties of a polarizer obtained through a treatment step in which the laminate is immersed in a liquid, such as a dyeing treatment and an underwater stretching treatment.Furthermore, by shrinking the laminate in the width direction through a drying shrinkage treatment, the optical properties can be improved.The obtained resin substrate / polarizer laminate may be used as is (i.e., the resin substrate may be used as a protective layer for the polarizer), or the resin substrate may be peeled off from the resin substrate / polarizer laminate, and any appropriate protective layer depending on the purpose may be laminated on the peeled surface. Details of such a method for producing a polarizer are described in, for example, JP-A-2012-73580 and Japanese Patent No. 6,470,455. The entire disclosures of these publications are incorporated herein by reference.

[0041] The polarizer is preferably composed of a laminate of two or more layers, and more preferably composed of a laminate of a resin substrate and a PVA-based resin layer formed by coating on the resin substrate.

[0042] The thickness of the polarizer may be any appropriate thickness as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. In terms of further exhibiting the effects of the present invention, the thickness of the polarizer is preferably 1 μm to 15 μm, more preferably 2 μm to 12 μm, even more preferably 3 μm to 10 μm, and particularly preferably 3 μm to 8 μm.

[0043] The polarizer preferably exhibits absorptive dichroism at any wavelength between 380 nm and 780 nm. The polarizer has a single transmittance of, for example, 41.5% to 46.0%, preferably 43.0% to 46.0%, and more preferably 44.5% to 46.0%. The degree of polarization of the polarizer 21 is preferably 97.0% or more, more preferably 99.0% or more, and even more preferably 99.9% or more.

[0044] <1-2-b. Protective Layer> The protective layer may be formed of any suitable film that can be used as a protective layer for a polarizer. Examples of materials that constitute the main component of the film include transparent resins such as cellulose-based resins such as triacetyl cellulose (TAC), polyester-based resins, polyvinyl alcohol-based resins, polycarbonate-based resins, polyamide-based resins, polyimide-based resins, polyethersulfone-based resins, polysulfone-based resins, polystyrene-based resins, polynorbornene-based resins, polyolefin-based resins, (meth)acrylic resins, and acetate-based resins. Examples of materials that constitute the main component of the film include thermosetting or ultraviolet-curing resins such as (meth)acrylic, urethane, (meth)acrylic urethane, epoxy, and silicone-based resins. Other examples of materials that constitute the main component of the film include glassy polymers such as siloxane-based polymers, and the polymer films described in JP 2001-343529 A (WO 01 / 37007 ). Furthermore, as the material that is the main component of the film, for example, a resin composition containing a thermoplastic resin having a substituted or unsubstituted imide group in the side chain and a thermoplastic resin having a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group and a nitrile group in the side chain can also be used. For example, a resin composition containing an alternating copolymer of isobutene and N-methylmaleimide and an acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer can be mentioned, and the film can be, for example, an extrusion molded product of such a resin composition.

[0045] One embodiment of the protective layer contains a (meth)acrylic resin. Examples of the (meth)acrylic resin include a (meth)acrylic resin having a glutarimide structure. Examples of (meth)acrylic resins having a glutarimide structure are described in, for example, JP 2006-309033 A, JP 2006-317560 A, JP 2006-328329 A, JP 2006-328334 A, JP 2006-337491 A, JP 2006-337492 A, JP 2006-337493 A, JP 2006-337569 A, JP 2007-009182 A, JP 2009-161744 A, and JP 2010-284840 A. These descriptions are incorporated herein by reference.

[0046] The thickness of the protective layer may be any appropriate thickness as long as it does not impair the effects of the present invention. In order to further exhibit the effects of the present invention, the thickness of the protective layer is typically 300 μm or less, preferably 3 μm to 100 μm, more preferably 5 μm to 80 μm, and even more preferably 10 μm to 60 μm. In addition, when the protective layer has been subjected to a surface treatment, the thickness of the protective layer includes the thickness of the layer formed by the surface treatment (surface treatment layer).

[0047] <1-3. First adhesive layer> As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 , the first adhesive layer 21 is disposed on the viewing side of the polarizing film 10, and a first optical member 31 is bonded to the first adhesive layer 21 on the opposite side of the polarizing film 10 as viewed from the first adhesive layer 21.

[0048] The first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer may be a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer) or an adhesive layer (first adhesive layer). From the viewpoint that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer or adhesive layer to be formed can have excellent thickness precision (low thickness variation), a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer) is preferred as the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

[0049] The first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is typically composed of a first pressure-sensitive adhesive formed from a photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I) or a solvent-based pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (II).

One embodiment of a method for forming a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer from a photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I)] One embodiment of a method for forming a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer from a photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I) involves, for example, preparing a laminate comprising, in this order, a base sheet, a coating layer comprising the photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I), and a release liner, and then irradiating the resulting laminate with light to cure the coating layer and form a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. This results in a laminate comprising, in this order, the base sheet / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer / release liner.

[0104] The laminate comprising a substrate sheet, a coating layer containing the photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I), and a release liner in this order can be produced by any appropriate method as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. For example, such a production method includes coating the photocurable pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (I) on a release liner and laminating a substrate sheet on the coated surface.

[0105] The substrate sheet may be in the form of a sheet or a continuous sheet. Examples of the substrate sheet include a resin film.

[0107] The substrate sheet may have a release layer on the surface on the coating layer side. Any appropriate release layer may be used as the release layer as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. For example, a commonly known release layer may be used as such a release layer. Such a release layer is typically a cured layer of a release agent composition containing a release agent. Various release agents can be used as the release agent, such as silicone-based release agents, fluorine-based release agents, long-chain alkyl-based release agents, fatty acid amide-based release agents, and silica powder. Any appropriate thickness may be used as the release layer as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. Such a thickness is, for example, 10 nm to 300 nm.

[0108] The substrate of the release liner (hereinafter referred to as "liner substrate") can be, for example, a resin film. Examples of resins that make up the resin film include polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate, acetate resins, polyethersulfone, polycarbonate, polyamide, polyimide, polyolefin, (meth)acrylic resins, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polystyrene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyarylate, and polyphenylene sulfide.

The light to be irradiated is, for example, visible light or ultraviolet light having a wavelength shorter than 450 nm.

This produces a laminate comprising, in this order, substrate sheet / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer / release liner.

[0114] In this embodiment, instead of applying an additive solution to the surface of the exposed cured layer and drying it as necessary, and then laminating a release liner to the side coated with the additive solution and irradiating it with light to cure it, a first optical member may be first laminated to the side coated with the additive solution and irradiating it with light through the first optical member to form a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, thereby obtaining a laminate comprising a base sheet / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer / first optical member in this order.

Examples of such optical members include an anti-reflection laminate and a laminate for preventing sunglass wear.

[0189] The thickness of the first optical member is typically 40 μm to 120 μm, and preferably 70 μm to 100 μm.

[0190] One embodiment of the first optical member is an antireflection laminate. The antireflection laminate typically includes a first substrate, a hard coat layer disposed on the viewing side of the first substrate, and an antireflection layer disposed on the viewing side of the hard coat layer. The hard coat layer may be formed directly on the viewing side surface of the first substrate. The antireflection layer may be formed directly on the viewing side surface of the hard coat layer. The antireflection laminate may be a member having a laminated structure of antireflection layer / hard coat layer / first substrate. The antireflection laminate includes a first substrate laminated with a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

[0191] <1-6-a. First Substrate> The first substrate is typically used to form a hard coat layer and an anti-reflection layer. Any appropriate resin film can be used as the first substrate. Examples of materials for forming the first substrate include polyester-based resins such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), cycloolefin-based resins such as norbornene-based resins, resins (COC) obtained by addition polymerization of cycloolefins (e.g., norbornene) and α-olefins (e.g., ethylene), and cellulose-based resins such as triacetyl cellulose (TAC).

[0192] The thickness of the first substrate can be appropriately set depending on the purpose. The thickness of the first substrate is typically 20 μm to 200 μm, preferably 50 μm to 150 μm, and more preferably 70 μm to 90 μm.

[0193] <1-6-b. Hard Coat Layer> The hard coat layer can impart, for example, excellent pencil hardness to the optical laminate. Furthermore, by appropriately adjusting the difference in refractive index between the hard coat layer and the antireflection layer, the reflectance of the optical laminate can be further reduced.

[0194] The hard coat layer preferably has sufficient surface hardness, excellent mechanical strength, and excellent light transmittance. The hard coat layer can be formed from any appropriate resin as long as it has such desired properties. Specific examples of the resin include thermosetting resins, thermoplastic resins, ultraviolet curing resins, electron beam curing resins, and two-component mixed resins. Among the resins that form the hard coat layer, ultraviolet curing resins are preferred. When the resin is an ultraviolet curing resin, the hard coat layer can be formed with simple operation and high efficiency.

[0195] Specific examples of UV-curable resins include polyester-based, acrylic-based, urethane-based, amide-based, silicone-based, and epoxy-based UV-curable resins. UV-curable resins include UV-curable monomers, oligomers, and polymers. Preferred UV-curable resins include resin compositions containing acrylic monomer or oligomer components having preferably two or more, and more preferably three to six, UV-polymerizable functional groups. Typically, UV-curable resins contain a photopolymerization initiator.

[0196] The hard coat layer can be formed by any appropriate method. For example, the hard coat layer can be formed by coating a resin composition for forming a hard coat layer on a first substrate, drying the coating, and curing the dried coating film by irradiating it with ultraviolet light.

[0197] The thickness of the hard coat layer is, for example, 0.5 μm to 20 μm, and preferably 1 μm to 15 μm.

[0198] Details of the hard coat layer and the adhesion structure between the hard coat layer and the antireflection layer are described in, for example, JP 2016-224443 A, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0199] <1-6-c. Antireflection Layer> The antireflection layer is provided to prevent reflection of external light (e.g., fluorescent light) and the like. Any appropriate configuration can be adopted as the configuration of the antireflection layer. Typical configurations of the antireflection layer include, for example, (1) a single layer of a low refractive index layer having an optical film thickness of 120 nm to 140 nm and a refractive index of about 1.35 to 1.55; (2) a laminate having, from the first substrate, a medium refractive index layer, a high refractive index layer, and a low refractive index layer in this order; and (3) an alternating multilayer laminate of a high refractive index layer and a low refractive index layer.

[0200] Materials that can form the low-refractive-index layer include, for example, silicon oxide (SiO2) and magnesium fluoride (MgF2). The refractive index of the low-refractive-index layer is typically approximately 1.35 to 1.55. Materials that can form the high-refractive-index layer include, for example, titanium oxide (TiO2), niobium oxide (Nb2O3 or Nb2O5), tin-doped indium oxide (ITO), antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO), and ZrO2-TiO2. The refractive index of the high-refractive-index layer is typically approximately 1.60 to 2.20. Materials that can form the medium-refractive-index layer include, for example, titanium oxide (TiO2) and a mixture of a material that can form a low-refractive-index layer and a material that can form a high-refractive-index layer (e.g., a mixture of titanium oxide and silicon oxide). The refractive index of the medium-refractive-index layer is typically approximately 1.50 to 1.85. The thicknesses of the low-refractive-index layer, medium-refractive-index layer, and high-refractive-index layer can be set to achieve an appropriate optical film thickness depending on the layer structure of the anti-reflection layer, the desired anti-reflection performance, etc.

[0201] The antireflection layer is typically formed by a dry process. Specific examples of the dry process include PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition). PVD methods include vacuum deposition, reactive vapor deposition, ion beam assisted deposition, sputtering, and ion plating. CVD methods include plasma CVD. The dry process for forming the antireflection layer is preferably sputtering.

[0202] The thickness of the antireflection layer is, for example, about 20 nm to 300 nm.

[0203] The difference between the maximum reflectance and the minimum reflectance of the antireflection layer in the wavelength range of 400 nm to 700 nm is preferably 2.0% or less, more preferably 1.9% or less, and even more preferably 1.8% or less. If the difference between the maximum reflectance and the minimum reflectance is in this range, coloring of reflected light can be effectively prevented.

[0204] The antireflection layer is typically located on the outermost surface of the optical laminate on the viewing side. The moisture permeability of the antireflection layer is typically 1.0 g / mm 2 or less, preferably 0.01 g / mm 2 ~0.1g / mm 2 The moisture permeability is measured in accordance with the moisture permeability test (cup method) of JIS Z0208 (for example, JIS Z0208:1976) in an atmosphere at a temperature of 40°C and a humidity of 92% RH, over an area of ​​1 m 2 When the moisture permeability of the antireflection layer located on the outermost surface is equal to or less than the upper limit, warping of the optical laminate in a high-humidity environment can be more stably suppressed.

[0205] The antireflection layer does not have to be located on the outermost surface of the optical laminate. The antireflection laminate may have an outermost layer on the viewing side of the antireflection layer, if necessary. That is, the antireflection laminate may be composed of a first substrate, a hard coat layer, an antireflection layer, and an outermost layer. The moisture permeability range of the outermost layer is the same as that of the antireflection layer described above. Examples of the outermost layer include an antifouling layer. The antifouling layer contains, for example, a fluorine group-containing silane-based compound (e.g., an alkoxysilane compound having a perfluoropolyether group) or a fluorine group-containing organic compound. The antifouling layer preferably exhibits water repellency with a water contact angle of 110 degrees or more.

[0206] <1-7. Second Optical Member> Any appropriate optical member can be adopted as the second optical member as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. The second optical member is typically a member that can impart excellent resistance to local loads to the optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0207] When the optical laminate according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a second optical member, the configurations shown in Figs. 2 and 3 can be typically adopted.

[0208] When the optical laminate according to the embodiment of the present invention has the configuration shown in Fig. 2 , the second optical member 32 is bonded to the viewing side of the polarizing film 10 via the second adhesive layer 22. The second optical member 32 is disposed between the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22. The second optical member 32 is in contact with the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22, and is pressure-sensitively bonded to the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22.

[0209] 3 , the second optical member 32 is bonded to the viewing side of the third optical member 33 via the second adhesive layer 22. The second optical member 32 is disposed between the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22. The second optical member 32 is in contact with the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22, and is pressure-sensitively bonded to the first adhesive layer 21 and the second adhesive layer 22.

[0210] The second optical member is formed of any appropriate film. Specific examples of the material that forms the main component of the second optical member include the same materials that form the main component of the protective layer described in Section <1-2-b. Protective Layer> (the transparent resins described above, the thermosetting resins or ultraviolet-curing resins described above, the glassy polymers described above, and the resin compositions described above). In one embodiment of the present invention, the second optical member contains a (meth)acrylic resin, preferably a (meth)acrylic resin having a glutarimide structure. That is, each of the protective layer and the second optical member contains a (meth)acrylic resin. By using a (meth)acrylic resin for the protective layer and the second optical member, light leakage can be stably suppressed when a load equal to or greater than a predetermined value is locally applied to the optical laminate.

[0211] The second optical member may be subjected to the above-mentioned surface treatment and / or the above-mentioned treatment for improving visibility, as well as the protective layer, if necessary.

[0212] The thickness of the second optical member is typically 20 μm to 70 μm, and preferably 30 μm to 50 μm. When the thickness of the second optical member is in this range, the optical laminate can be provided with excellent resistance to local loads, and warping of the optical laminate in a high-humidity environment can be sufficiently suppressed.

[0213] <1-8. Third Optical Member> As the third optical member, any appropriate optical member can be used as long as it is a member that can impart optical functionality to the optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention, as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. Examples of such optical members include an anti-glare laminate and an anti-sunglasses laminate.

[0214] When the optical laminate according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a third optical member, the configuration shown in FIG. 3 can be typically adopted.

[0215] The thickness of the third optical member is typically 20 μm to 60 μm, and preferably 30 μm to 50 μm.

[0216] One embodiment of the third optical member is an anti-glare laminate. The anti-glare laminate includes an anti-glare layer and a second substrate arranged on the viewing side of the anti-glare layer. The anti-glare layer is supported by the second substrate. The anti-glare layer is arranged on the viewing side of the protective layer and is bonded to the protective layer via a third adhesive layer 23. The anti-glare layer is in contact with the third adhesive layer 23 and is pressure-sensitively bonded to the third adhesive layer 23. The second substrate is located on the opposite side of the anti-glare layer from the third adhesive layer 23. The second substrate is in contact with the second adhesive layer 22 and is pressure-sensitively bonded to the second adhesive layer 22.

[0217] <1-8-a. Anti-glare Layer> The anti-glare layer is provided to prevent reflections of the face of a user of the image display device, the keyboard of the image display device, external light (e.g., fluorescent light), etc. In one embodiment of the present invention, the anti-glare layer is a layer of a liquid crystal compound with a fixed orientation. In this specification, the term "fixed orientation layer" refers to a layer in which the liquid crystal compound is oriented in a predetermined direction within the layer and the orientation state is fixed. The term "fixed orientation layer" encompasses a concept that includes a hardened orientation layer obtained by hardening a liquid crystal monomer. The liquid crystal compound may be a rod-shaped liquid crystal compound, a discotic (discotic) liquid crystal compound, or a combination thereof.

[0218] In one embodiment of the present invention, the anti-glare layer contains a discotic liquid crystal compound. More specifically, the anti-glare layer is a layer in which a discotic liquid crystal compound is fixed in a state where it is aligned in a predetermined direction. A discotic liquid crystal compound generally refers to a liquid crystal compound having a discotic molecular structure in which a cyclic mother nucleus such as benzene, 1,3,5-triazine, or calixarene is located at the center of the molecule and linear alkyl groups, alkoxy groups, substituted benzoyloxy groups, or the like are radially substituted as side chains. Representative examples of discotic liquid crystals include benzene derivatives, triphenylene derivatives, truxene derivatives, and phthalocyanine derivatives described in the research report by C. Destrade et al., Mol. Cryst. Liq. Cryst., Vol. 71, p. 111 (1981), and compounds described in the research report by B. Kohne et al., Angew. Chem. 96, p. 70 (1984), and azacrown-based and phenylacetylene-based macrocycles described in the research report by J. M. Lehn et al., J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun., p. 1794 (1985), and the research report by J. Zhang et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., vol. 116, p. 2655 (1994). Further specific examples of discotic liquid crystal compounds include compounds described in JP-A-2006-133652, JP-A-2007-108732, JP-A-2010-244038, and JP-A-2014-214177. The descriptions in the above-mentioned documents and publications are incorporated herein by reference. The anti-glare layer containing a discotic liquid crystal compound can typically be a so-called negative A plate having refractive index characteristics of nx=nz>ny.

[0219] In another embodiment, the anti-glare layer contains a rod-shaped liquid crystal compound. More specifically, the anti-glare layer is oriented (homogeneous orientation) in a state where the rod-shaped liquid crystal compound is aligned in a predetermined direction (typically, the slow axis direction). Examples of rod-shaped liquid crystal compounds include liquid crystal compounds having a nematic liquid crystal phase (nematic liquid crystals). Examples of such liquid crystal compounds that can be used include liquid crystal polymers and liquid crystal monomers. The mechanism by which the liquid crystal compound exhibits liquid crystallinity may be either lyotropic or thermotropic. The liquid crystal polymer and liquid crystal monomer may be used alone or in combination. Any appropriate liquid crystal monomer may be used as the liquid crystal monomer. For example, polymerizable mesogenic compounds described in JP-A-2002-533742 (WO 00 / 37585), EP 358208 (US Pat. No. 5,211,877), EP 66137 (US Pat. No. 4,388,453), WO 93 / 22397, EP 0,261,712, DE 19,504,224, DE 4,408,171, and GB 2,280,445 can be used. Specific examples of such polymerizable mesogenic compounds include LC242 (product name) from BASF, E7 (product name) from Merck, and LC-Silicon-CC3767 (product name) from Wacker-Chem. Nematic liquid crystal monomers are preferred as liquid crystal monomers. Specific examples of liquid crystal compounds are described in JP-A-2006-163343, for example. The disclosures of these publications are incorporated herein by reference. The anti-glare layer containing a rod-like liquid crystal compound can be typically a so-called positive A plate having refractive index characteristics of nx>ny=nz.

[0220] The anti-glare layer can typically function as a λ / 2 plate. When the anti-glare layer functions as a λ / 2 plate, glare can be effectively prevented by controlling its orientation angle (or slow axis direction). The in-plane retardation Re(550) of such an anti-glare layer is 220 nm to 320 nm, more preferably 240 nm to 300 nm, and even more preferably 250 nm to 280 nm.

[0221] The angle formed by the slow axis of the anti-glare layer and the absorption axis of the polarizer is preferably 35° to 55°, more preferably 40° to 50°, and even more preferably about 45°. By arranging the anti-glare layer, which functions as a λ / 2 plate, at such an axial angle, it is possible to effectively prevent glare.

[0222] The thickness of the anti-glare layer is preferably 1 μm to 5 μm, and more preferably 1 μm to 3 μm.

[0223] When an alignment film is used to align the liquid crystal compound, the anti-glare laminate further includes an alignment film between the anti-glare layer and the second substrate. That is, the anti-glare laminate may be composed of an anti-glare layer, an alignment film, and a second substrate. The alignment film generally contains a polymer material as a main component. Typical examples of polymer materials include polyvinyl alcohol, polyimide, and derivatives thereof. In one embodiment of the present invention, modified or unmodified polyvinyl alcohol is preferred. For example, modified polyvinyl alcohols described in WO 01 / 88574 A1 and Japanese Patent No. 3907735 can be used as the alignment film. The alignment film is typically subjected to an alignment treatment. Typical examples of alignment treatments include rubbing treatment and photoalignment treatment. Since rubbing treatments are well known in the art, a detailed description thereof will be omitted. Examples of the photo-aligned alignment film (photo-alignment film) that can be used include those described in WO2005 / 096041 and a product manufactured by Rolic Technologies under the trade name LPP-JP265CP. The thickness of the alignment film is, for example, 0.01 μm to 10 μm, preferably 0.01 μm to 1 μm, and more preferably 0.01 μm to 0.5 μm.

[0224] The anti-glare layer can be formed, for example, by the following procedure. First, a coating liquid for forming an alignment film is applied to a second substrate and dried to form a coating film. This coating film is rubbed in a predetermined direction to form an alignment film on the second substrate. This predetermined direction may correspond to the slow axis direction of the resulting anti-glare layer. Next, a coating liquid for forming an anti-glare layer (e.g., a solution containing a liquid crystal compound and, if necessary, a crosslinkable monomer) is applied to the formed alignment film and heated. Heating removes the solvent from the coating liquid and promotes alignment of the liquid crystal compound. Heating can be performed in a single step or in multiple steps at different temperatures. Next, ultraviolet light is irradiated to crosslink (or polymerize) the crosslinkable (or polymerizable) monomer, thereby fixing the alignment of the liquid crystal compound. In this way, an anti-glare layer is formed on the second substrate (essentially, on the alignment film). A method for aligning discotic liquid crystal compounds is described, for example, in JP 2014-214177 A, and a method for aligning rod-shaped liquid crystal compounds is described, for example, in JP 2006-163343 A. The descriptions in these publications are incorporated herein by reference. The alignment film may be omitted depending on the desired alignment state, the type of liquid crystal compound, and the like.

[0225] <1-8-b. Second Substrate> The second substrate can be used to form an anti-glare layer.

[0226] Any appropriate resin film can be used as the second substrate. Examples of materials for forming the resin film include polyester-based resins such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), cycloolefin-based resins such as norbornene-based resins, resins (COC) obtained by addition polymerization of cycloolefins (e.g., norbornene) and α-olefins (e.g., ethylene), and cellulose-based resins such as triacetyl cellulose (TAC). In one embodiment of the present invention, the second substrate includes a cellulose-based resin such as TAC.

[0227] The thickness of the second substrate can be appropriately set depending on the purpose. The thickness of the second substrate is typically 20 μm to 200 μm, preferably 25 μm to 100 μm, and more preferably 30 μm to 50 μm.

[0228] <1-9. First Retardation Film> The first retardation film may be a retardation film having any appropriate optical and / or mechanical properties depending on the purpose. The first retardation film is located on the side opposite the viewing side of the polarizing film. The first retardation film is typically attached to the side opposite the viewing side of the polarizing film via any appropriate adhesive layer. The first retardation film may also serve as a protective layer on the side opposite the viewing side of the polarizer.

[0229] The thickness of the first retardation film is preferably 10 μm to 60 μm, and more preferably 30 μm to 50 μm.

[0230] The in-plane retardation Re(550) of the first retardation film is preferably 80 nm to 150 nm, more preferably 90 nm to 140 nm, and further preferably 100 nm to 130 nm.

[0231] The first retardation film preferably has refractive index characteristics that satisfy the relationship nx>ny>nz. The Nz coefficient of the first retardation film is preferably 1.1 to 3.0, and more preferably 1.3 to 2.7.

[0232] The first retardation film can preferably be arranged so that its slow axis is substantially parallel to the absorption axis of the polarizer. In this specification, the expressions "substantially parallel" and "almost parallel" include the case where the angle between the two directions is 0°±7°, preferably 0°±5°, and more preferably 0°±3°. The expressions "substantially orthogonal" and "almost orthogonal" include the case where the angle between the two directions is 90°±7°, preferably 90°±5°, and more preferably 90°±3°. Furthermore, in this specification, when simply referring to "orthogonal" or "parallel," it can include the substantially orthogonal or substantially parallel state.

[0233] The first retardation film preferably has an absolute value of the photoelastic coefficient of 2×10 -11 m 2 The absolute value of the photoelastic coefficient is more preferably 2.0×10 -13 m 2 / N ~ 1.5 x 10 -11 m2 / N, and more preferably 1.0 × 10 -12 m 2 / N ~ 1.2 × 10 -11 m 2 / N. By appropriately adjusting the photoelastic coefficient of the first retardation film, an optical laminate suitable for suppressing display defects can be obtained even when a small object collides with or presses the screen over a small contact area. If the absolute value of the photoelastic coefficient is within this range, phase difference change is unlikely to occur when shrinkage stress occurs during heating. Therefore, by forming the first retardation film using a resin having such an absolute value of the photoelastic coefficient, thermal unevenness can be effectively prevented when the optical laminate is applied to an image display device.

[0234] The first retardation film may exhibit a reverse wavelength dispersion characteristic in which the retardation value increases with the wavelength of the measurement light, a positive wavelength dispersion characteristic in which the retardation value decreases with the wavelength of the measurement light, or a flat wavelength dispersion characteristic in which the retardation value changes little with the wavelength of the measurement light. The first retardation film preferably exhibits a flat wavelength dispersion characteristic. Specifically, the Re(450) / Re(550) of the first retardation film 7 is preferably 0.99 to 1.03, and the Re(650) / Re(550) is preferably 0.98 to 1.02. By arranging a λ / 2 plate (first retardation film) and a λ / 4 plate (second retardation film) having flat wavelength dispersion characteristics at a predetermined axial angle, it is possible to obtain characteristics close to the ideal reverse wavelength dispersion characteristic, and as a result, it is possible to realize excellent antireflection properties.

[0235] The first retardation film may be composed of any appropriate resin film that can satisfy the above-described characteristics. Representative examples of such resins include cyclic olefin-based resins, polycarbonate-based resins, cellulose-based resins, polyester-based resins, polyvinyl alcohol-based resins, polyamide-based resins, polyimide-based resins, polyether-based resins, polystyrene-based resins, and acrylic-based resins. Among these, cyclic olefin-based resins may be preferably used. The first retardation film 7 may be obtained, for example, by stretching a film formed from the above-described resin. Details of cyclic olefin-based resins and methods for stretching resin films (methods for forming retardation films) are described, for example, in JP 2015-210459 A and JP 2016-105166 A. The disclosures of these publications are incorporated herein by reference.

[0236] <1-10. Second Retardation Film> The second retardation film may be a retardation film having any suitable optical and / or mechanical properties depending on the purpose. The second retardation film is located on the side opposite the viewing side of the first retardation film. The second retardation film is typically attached to the side opposite the viewing side of the first retardation film via any suitable adhesive layer.

[0237] The thickness of the second retardation film is preferably 10 μm to 50 μm, and more preferably 20 μm to 40 μm.

[0238] The in-plane retardation Re(550) of the second retardation film is preferably 10 nm to 60 nm, more preferably 20 nm to 50 nm, and even more preferably 30 nm to 40 nm.

[0239] The second retardation film preferably has refractive index characteristics that satisfy the relationship nz>nx>ny. The Nz coefficient of the second retardation film is preferably −10 to −0.1, and more preferably −5 to −1.

[0240] The second retardation film can be preferably disposed so that its slow axis is substantially perpendicular to the absorption axis of the polarizer.

[0241] The second retardation film may be composed of any appropriate resin film that can satisfy the above-mentioned characteristics. Such a resin may typically be a polymer having negative intrinsic birefringence. A polymer having negative intrinsic birefringence refers to a polymer in which, when oriented by stretching or the like, the refractive index in the orientation direction becomes relatively small. Examples of polymers having negative intrinsic birefringence include those in which chemical bonds or functional groups with large polarization anisotropy, such as aromatic or carbonyl groups, are introduced into the side chains of the polymer. Specific examples include modified polyolefin-based resins (e.g., modified polyethylene-based resins), acrylic-based resins, styrene-based resins, maleimide-based resins, fumaric acid ester-based resins, etc. The second retardation film may be obtained, for example, by appropriately stretching a film formed from the above-mentioned resin.

[0242] In one embodiment of the present invention, the optical stack includes a first retardation film and a second retardation film, but the optical stack does not necessarily include the first retardation film and / or the second retardation film.

[0243] <1-11. Panel-Side Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive Layer> The panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is located on the side opposite to the viewing side of the second retardation film. The panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is typically formed by coating any appropriate pressure-sensitive adhesive on the second retardation film. The thickness of the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is preferably 1 μm to 60 μm, and more preferably 5 μm to 30 μm. In one embodiment of the present invention, the optical laminate includes a panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, but the optical laminate does not necessarily include a panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

[0244] Any appropriate pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can be used as the panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired. A typical example of such a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer composed of any appropriate pressure-sensitive adhesive that can be used to bond a retardation film to another member. For example, the description of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in Section <1-3. First pressure-sensitive adhesive layer> can be used. In particular, the description of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer obtained from the solvent-based pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (II) in Section <1-3. First pressure-sensitive adhesive layer> can be used preferably.

[0245] <<2. Image Display Device>> The optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention can be applied to an image display device. Accordingly, one embodiment of the present invention also encompasses an image display device using such an optical laminate. Representative examples of image display devices include liquid crystal display devices and organic EL display devices. An image display device according to an embodiment of the present invention typically includes an optical laminate according to an embodiment of the present invention on the viewing side. The image display device includes an image display panel. The image display panel includes an image display cell. Note that the image display device may be referred to as an optical display device, the image display panel may be referred to as an optical display panel, and the image display cell may be referred to as an optical display cell.

The test sample bonded to the glass plate was placed on the stage of a measuring device (manufactured by Instron, product name "5581") equipped with a piercing jig. The radius of curvature R of the tip of the piercing jig was 550 μm. The piercing jig was pierced into the test sample on the stage at a piercing speed of 0.9 mm / min under room temperature (23°C ± 3°C). As shown in FIG. 4 , the load F (kgf) was measured after reaching the maximum load Fp (kgf) and maintaining the load for 15 seconds, and the displacement L (μm) was measured at the time the maximum load Fp (kgf) was reached. (Calculation) Using the maximum load Fp (kgf) obtained in the puncture test, the load F (kgf) after 15 seconds of holding the load after reaching the maximum load Fp (kgf), the displacement L (μm) when the maximum load Fp (kgf) was reached, and the total thickness T (μm) of the optical laminate to be measured, the residual stress attenuation rate ΔF (%) was calculated by the following formula (1), and the maximum strain rate ΔL (%) was calculated by the following formula (2). Formula (1): ΔF = [(Fp - F) / Fp] × 100 Formula (2): ΔL = (L / T) × 100

[0248] <Light Leakage Evaluation> The optical laminates obtained in the examples and comparative examples were cut into 5 cm x 5 cm pieces to serve as test samples.

The radius of curvature R of the tip of the piercing jig was 550 μm. The piercing jig was pierced into the test sample on the stage at room temperature (23°C ± 3°C) with a load of 8.5 kg. The polarizer of the optical laminate after the piercing test and a polarizer attached to a microscope were arranged in a crossed Nicol configuration.

The piercing jig was pierced into the test sample on the stage at room temperature (23°C ± 3°C) with a load of 8.5 kg (piercing test). Peeling of the sample after piercing was visually confirmed. Evaluation was based on the following criteria: ∘: No peeling occurred; Δ: No peeling occurred immediately after the piercing test, but peeling was observed one week later; ×: Peeling occurred immediately after the piercing test.

[0250] <Evaluation of glue thickness accuracy> The optical laminates obtained in the examples and comparative examples were cut into 150 mm x 150 mm pieces to prepare test samples. The thickness was measured at 10 locations using a digital gauge (manufactured by Ozaki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., product name "Digital Upright Gauge R1N-225"). The average thickness was calculated, and the variation was evaluated. Evaluation was based on the following criteria: ◯: The variation was within 10% of the glue thickness. ×: The variation was greater than 10% of the glue thickness.

[0251] <Photoelastic Coefficient> A sample was prepared by cutting out a measurement object into a size of 20 mm x 100 mm. The prepared sample was measured with an ellipsometer (manufactured by JASCO Corporation, M-150) using light with a wavelength of 550 nm to measure the photoelastic coefficient.

[0252] [Production Example 1]: Production of Polarized Film A long, amorphous isophthalic copolymerized polyethylene terephthalate film (thickness: 100 μm) with a Tg of approximately 75°C was used as the thermoplastic resin substrate. One side of the resin substrate was subjected to a corona treatment. A PVA-based resin (a 9:1 mixture of polyvinyl alcohol (degree of polymerization: 4200, degree of saponification: 99.2 mol%) and acetoacetyl-modified PVA (manufactured by Nippon Synthetic Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., trade name "GOHSEFIRM") was mixed with 100 parts by weight of the PVA-based resin, and 13 parts by weight of potassium iodide was added and dissolved in water to prepare an aqueous PVA solution (coating solution). The PVA-based resin was applied to the corona-treated surface of the resin substrate and dried at 60°C to form a 13 μm-thick PVA-based resin layer, producing a laminate. The resulting laminate was uniaxially stretched 2.4 times in the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction) in an oven at 130°C (in-air auxiliary stretching treatment). Next, the laminate was immersed for 30 seconds in an insolubilizing bath (a boric acid aqueous solution obtained by blending 4 parts by weight of boric acid with 100 parts by weight of water) at a liquid temperature of 40°C (insolubilization treatment), then immersed for 60 seconds in a dyeing bath (an iodine aqueous solution obtained by blending iodine and potassium iodide with 100 parts by weight of water in a weight ratio of 1:7) at a liquid temperature of 30°C while adjusting the concentration so that the single transmittance (Ts) of the finally obtained polarizer would be a desired value (dyeing treatment), then immersed for 30 seconds in a crosslinking bath (a boric acid aqueous solution obtained by blending 3 parts by weight of potassium iodide and 5 parts by weight of boric acid with 100 parts by weight of water) at a liquid temperature of 40°C (crosslinking treatment). The laminate was then immersed in a boric acid aqueous solution (boric acid concentration: 4 wt %, potassium iodide concentration: 5 wt %) at a liquid temperature of 70°C and uniaxially stretched in the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction) between rolls operating at different peripheral speeds to a total stretch ratio of 5.5 (underwater stretching treatment). The laminate was then immersed in a cleaning bath (an aqueous solution obtained by blending 4 parts by weight of potassium iodide with 100 parts by weight of water) at a liquid temperature of 20°C (washing treatment). The laminate was then dried in an oven maintained at approximately 90°C and brought into contact with a SUS heated roll maintained at a surface temperature of approximately 75°C (drying shrinkage treatment). In this manner, a polarizer having a thickness of approximately 5 μm was formed on the resin substrate.An acrylic resin film (manufactured by Kaneka Corporation, product name "HTX") (thickness = 40 μm) having a glutarimide structure as a protective layer was bonded to the surface of the obtained polarizer (the surface opposite to the resin substrate) via a UV-curable adhesive. Specifically, the curable adhesive was applied so that the total thickness was approximately 2.0 μm, and the films were bonded using a roller. Thereafter, UV light was irradiated from the acrylic resin film side to cure the adhesive. Next, the resin substrate was peeled off to obtain a polarized film having a thickness of 45 μm and a configuration of acrylic resin film (protective layer) / polarizer.

After nitrogen bubbling for 1 hour, the mixture was stirred at 49°C for 24 hours to carry out radical suspension polymerization. The mixture was then cooled to room temperature, and the suspension containing the resulting polymer particles was centrifuged. The resulting polymer was washed twice with distilled water and twice with methanol, and then dried under reduced pressure to obtain a white fumarate-based resin. The resulting fumarate-based resin was dissolved in methyl ethyl ketone to obtain a solution with a solids concentration of 20% by weight. Furthermore, 5 parts by weight of tributyl trimellitate was added as a plasticizer to 100 parts by weight of the fumaric acid ester resin to prepare a dope. A 75 μm-thick polyester film (biaxially stretched film of polyethylene-terephthalate / isophthalate copolymer) was used as the support film. The dope was applied to a film thickness of approximately 6 μm after drying and dried to obtain a laminate A in which a coating film of the fumaric acid ester resin was tightly laminated on the support. The obtained laminate A was uniaxially stretched at its free end to obtain a laminate B in which a second retardation film (positive B plate) having a refractive index anisotropy of nz > nx > ny was tightly laminated on the support. The support was peeled off from the laminate B to obtain a second retardation film (positive B plate) having a refractive index anisotropy of 6 μm.

[0300] Example 16 In the same manner as in Example 1, a laminate P1 having a laminated structure of "polarizing film (thickness 45 μm) / first retardation film (thickness 18 μm) / second retardation film (thickness 6 μm)" was obtained. Separately, the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (17) obtained in Production Example 27 was applied with an applicator to the release-treated surface of a first release liner (trade name "Diafoil MRF", thickness 75 μm, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) having a release-treated surface on one side, to form a coating layer. Next, the release-treated surface of a second release liner (trade name "Diafoil MRE", thickness 75 μm, manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation) having a release-treated surface on one side was bonded to the coating layer formed on the first release liner. Next, an illuminance of 9 mW / cm was applied to the coating layer between the release liners from the first release liner side. 2 Conditions (integrated light amount 2700 mJ / cm 2) was irradiated with light. This photocured the coating layer, forming a laminate composed of the first release liner, the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (17) (thickness: 80 μm), and the second release liner. An LED was used as the light source. The peak wavelength of the light irradiated by the LED was 340 nm. Next, the second release liner was peeled off from the resulting laminate, and the additive solution (1) obtained in Production Example 30 was applied to the exposed surface of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (17).

As a result, the photocurable first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (17a) was photocured, and a laminate B16 composed of first release liner / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (17a) (thickness 100 μm) / third release liner was formed. Next, the third release liner was peeled from laminate B16, and the first optical member (1a) obtained in Production Example 4 was placed on the exposed surface of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (17a). In this way, a laminate R16 having a laminate structure of "first release liner / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (17a) (thickness 100 μm) / first optical member (1a) (thickness 85 μm)" was obtained. The first release liner was peeled from laminate R16, and the exposed first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (17a) was transferred onto the protective layer of laminate P1 obtained in Example 1.

[0301] Example 17 A laminate composed of a first release liner, a first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18) (thickness: 90 μm), and a second release liner was formed in the same manner as in Example 16, except that the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (17) obtained in Production Example 27 was replaced with the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (18) obtained in Production Example 28. The second release liner was then peeled from the resulting laminate, and the additive solution (1) obtained in Production Example 30 was applied to the exposed surface of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18). The amount of additive solution (1) applied was determined so that the total amount of additives in the additive solution (1) was 10 parts by weight relative to 90 parts by weight of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (18) used to form the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18), resulting in a coating thickness of approximately 25 μm. A bar coater RDS No. 30 manufactured by R.D. SPECIALTIES was used for application. The laminate was then dried in a dryer at 110°C for 3 minutes. The coating and drying processes allowed the additive components to penetrate into the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18), and the solvent was evaporated. The first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18) was converted into a photocurable first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18a) by the penetration of the additive components. Thereafter, the same procedure as in Example 16 was carried out to obtain an optical laminate (17) having a laminate structure of "first optical member (1a) (thickness 85 μm) / first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (18a) (thickness 100 μm) / polarizing film (thickness 45 μm) / first retardation film (thickness 18 μm) / second retardation film (thickness 6 μm) / panel-side pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (thickness 15 μm)". The results are shown in Table 1. The laminate structure is also shown in Table 2.

[0302] [Example 18] The thickness of the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18) was changed from 90 μm to 80 μm, and the coating amount of the additive solution (1) was determined so that the total amount of additives in the additive solution (1) was 20 parts by weight relative to 80 parts by weight of the pressure-sensitive adhesive composition (18) used to form the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer precursor (18). Except for this, the same procedure as in Example 17 was carried out, with the exception of a coating thickness of approximately 50 μm.
