Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a wide visual field angle polarizing plate having a large area, less liable to curl and capable of forming a liquid crystal display device having a wide visual field angle and good visibility. SOLUTION: The wide visual field angle polarizing plate 5 comprises a laminated body of an optical compensation phase difference plate 3 comprising a cellulose triacetate film or an optical compensation phase difference plate 3 obtained by supporting an optical compensation layer on a cellulose triacetate film and a polarizing plate 1, and the water content of the optical compensation phase difference plate is 0.9-2.0%. The liquid crystal display device has the wide visual field angel polarizing plate on at least one side of a liquid crystal cell. Curl due to a dimensional change by the swelling of the cellulose triacetate film by water absorption and the shrinkage of the film by evaporation can be suppressed.

Comparative Example 2 The same procedure as in Example 1 was carried out except that the optical compensation phase difference plate was adjusted to a moisture content of 2.2% by controlling the humidity in an atmosphere of 23 ° C. and 90% RH for 60 hours. A wide viewing angle polarizing plate was obtained.

Evaluation test 280 mm × 2 from the wide-viewing-angle polarizing plates obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples.
Cut out a sample of 20 mm size and squeeze it at room temperature for 65
After standing for a time, the amount of deformation due to curling was examined. The measurement was performed by placing the wide-viewing-angle polarizing plate 5 on a horizontal table as shown in FIG.

The results are shown in the following table. Note that, depending on the direction of the curl, the case where the optical compensation retardation plate swells and deforms is +, and the case where it contracts is-.

From the table, it is found that the moisture content of the optical compensation retardation plate is set to 0.1.
It can be seen that by controlling the content to 9 to 2.0%, the deformation due to curling can be suppressed to ± 10 mm or less even in a large-area body.
