Abstract
An antiglare film applicable to polarizers or displays includes a light-transparent resin, first light-transparent particles dispersed on surface of the light-transparent resin and second light-transparent particles dispersed inside the resin. The first light-transparent particles have a same refractive index as that of the resin and particle diameters of 9 to 500 nanometers that provide a less roughness surface of the resin in order to prevent from large angle diffusion to the interior light and improve clarity of image. The second particles have a different refractive index from the resin so as to diffuse the exterior light that comes to the antiglare film so as to decrease glare. The antiglare film can be made by one time of coating. The two layer light-transparent particles provide light interference and achieve a low reflectivity.

- 1. Field of the Invention
- The invention generally relates to an antiglare film applicable to polarizers or screens of computers, TVs or the like, and particularly relates to a high resolution and low reflectivity antiglare film that enables a clear display.
- 2. Related Art
- In a display with light emission, the light emitting from interior of the display has to be diffused before leaving the display surface, otherwise the light is glaring and irritant to user's eyes. Therefore, there is usually an antiglare film furnished on surface of a display for diffusing the emitting light. On the other hand, any exterior light coming to the surface of the display should also be diffused in order to prevent from reflection and causing difficulty for user to watch images on the display. So, an antiglare film for the display is desired to be functional both in diffusing the interior light and reducing reflection of the exterior light.
- There are a lot of technical documents and patents relating to antiglare film. Some documents and patents on antiglare films using light-transparent fine particle coatings are described herein.
- U.S. Pat. No. 5,998,013 discloses an antiglare hard coat film for diffusing exterior light. The film is coated with a layer comprising an ultraviolet-curing resin and agglomerates of colloidal silica particles formed with an amine compound. The colloidal silica particles are used to form the roughness of the surface, however, the particles with variant diameters unevenly gathered on the film surface cause insufficient visibility of the film. Especially when making a higher diffusion antiglare film with higher roughness, the clarity gets worse. Similarly, antiglare films disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,074,741 and 6,164,785 also have the problems of less clarity for higher diffusion. Further, the prior arts do not achieve a low reflectivity property.
- In order to increase diffusion rate, the prior arts use larger particles to get higher roughness. However, the higher diffusion also lowers the clarity and contrast of the image. Therefore, methods for controlling particle size or mixing different kinds of particles evenly to solve the aforesaid problems become important development issues.
- Besides using the aforesaid light-transparent particles coated on a film for diffusing the exterior light, another kind of antiglare film uses particles dispersed in a resin, and diffuses the interior light by means of the different refractive indexes between the particle and the resin. For example, in U.S. Pat. No. 6,217,176, two kinds of light-transparent particles with different refractive index are contained in a light-transparent resin. So, the interior light can be diffused by the particles. The particles stacked on the film also diffuse the exterior light and improve image clarity. However, this antiglare film still lacks of a low reflectivity. Then, in U.S. Pat. No. 6,347,871, two resin coat layers having properties of diffusing interior and exterior light respectively are coated on the film. The process is more complicated due to the two layer coatings, and the antiglare film still lacks of a low reflectivity.
- For the above reasons, it is required to have an antiglare film capable of diffusing interior and exterior lights for preventing glare, improving visibility, and also decreasing reflectivity of the display. Nano-grade particles are well dispersed on surface of a resin. The roughness and dispersal of particles can be controlled so as to prevent from the problems of larger particles, uneven dispersal, low clarity and low contrast of prior arts. A one-time coating and a low reflectivity are also attained.
- The primary object of the invention is to provide an antiglare film capable of diffusing interior and exterior lights for preventing glare and improving visibility.
- Another object of the invention is to provide an antiglare film having a low reflectivity and requiring only one time of coating.
- An antiglare film according to the invention is applicable to polarizers or screens of computers, TVs or the like. The antiglare film furnished on a film substrate includes a light-transparent resin, first light-transparent particles and second light-transparent particles. The first and second particles diffuse both interior and exterior lights that come to the antiglare film so as to prevent from glare and improve visibility.
- Before coating the antiglare material on the film substrate, the light-transparent resin, first light-transparent particles and second light-transparent particles are well stirred and mixed so that the first and second particles are well dispersed in the resin to lessen the surface roughness and keep the particle mixture uniform.
- The first light-transparent particles are dispersed in surface and interior of the light-transparent resin. The refractive index of the first particles is same as that of the resin. The first particles are of nano-grade that can be easily dispersed and controlled. The second light-transparent particles are dispersed in interior of the light-transparent resin and having a different refractive index from the resin. The sizes of the second particles are larger than the sizes of the first particles so as to be naturally dispersed by their weight in the interior of the resin, and push the first particles up to the surface of the resin.
- Therefore, when an exterior light comes to the antiglare film, the rough surface caused by dispersion of the first particles in the resin diffuses the exterior light. Since the first particles are of nano-grade, the surface roughness is small that diffuses the exterior light with small diffusion angles and increases the image clarity. On the other hand, the interior light passing through the substrate to the antiglare film is diffused by the second light-transparent particles because they are inside the resin and have a different refractive index from that of the resin. As a result, the antiglare film of the invention increases the visibility, simplifies the process by one-time coating, and decreases the reflectivity by optical interference effects of the two light-transparent particles.
- Further scope of the applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
- The invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings, which are given by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein:
-
FIG. 1 is a sectional view of an antiglare film of the invention coated on a substrate; -
FIG. 2 is a descriptive view of exterior light diffusion in an antiglare film of the invention; -
FIG. 3 is a descriptive view of interior light diffusion in an antiglare film of the invention; -
FIG. 4 is a descriptive view of an antiglare film of the invention applied to a polarizer; and -
FIG. 5 is a descriptive view of an antiglare film of the invention applied to a display. - As shown in
FIG. 1 , an antiglare film according to the invention is applicable to polarizers or screens of computers, TVs or the like. Theantiglare film 1 includes a light-transparent resin 11, first light-transparent particles 12 and second light-transparent particles 13. So, the interior light passing through thesubstrate 2 and the exterior light irradiating on thesubstrate 2 are diffused to avoid glare to user's eyes, to increase visibility of the displayed image and to decrease the reflectivity of the screen. - The light-
transparent resin 11 is a kind of curable resin, such as ultraviolet-curing resin, having high transparency. Theresin 11 is well mixed with the first light-transparent particles 12 and the second light-transparent particles 13, and then painted on surface of thesubstrate 2, which is the screen of a display, for example. The resin mixture is then cured and fixed on thesubstrate 2 where the first and second light-transparent particles are evenly dispersed and fixed in position to achieve a less surface roughness of theantiglare film 1. - The first light-
transparent particles 12 are dispersed on surface and in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the first light-transparent particles is same as that of theresin 11. The diameters of the first light-transparent particles 12 are of nano-grade, such as 9 to 500 nanometers, so as to be easily dispersed and make a uniform coating surface. - The second light-
transparent particles 13 are dispersed in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the second light-transparent particles is different from that of theresin 11. The diameters of the second light-transparent particles 13 are larger than that of the first light-transparent particles 12, such as 1 to 10 micrometers, and preferably 1 to 5 micrometers, and the refractive index is 1.50 to 1.65, so as to be dispersed inside theresin 11 by their own weight and push the first light-transparent particles 12 up to the surface of theresin 11. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , when exterior light irradiates on theantiglare film 1, the roughness of the first light-transparent particles 12 dispersed on surface of theresin 11 diffuses the exterior light. Because the first light-transparent particles 12 are of nano-grade, the roughness of the resin surface is less so that the display image provided by interior light is diffused with smaller angles and remained clear. As shown inFIG. 3 , when interior light passing through thesubstrate 2 to theantiglare film 1, since the second light-transparent particles 13 having a refractive index different from that of theresin 11 are dispersed inside theresin 11, the interior light is diffused. As for the first light-transparent particles 12 dispersed in theresin 11, since they have a same refractive index as the resin, they do not diffuse the passing light. - The following description and TABLE 1 are test data of three embodiments of the invention and comparative samples of other antiglare films. The testing devices for the comparison are listed below.

- According to evaluation of the above embodiments and comparative samples, the following conclusions are obtained:
-
- 1) In respective comparison of haze, gloss, clarity and reflection, it is clear that the clarity and reflection properties of the three embodiments are better than that of the
comparative samples 1 under a certain antiglare property. - 2) Though the
comparative sample 2 has a better clarity, it has a higher reflectivity. The clarity properties are also lower than the three embodiments. - 3) From comparisons among the three embodiments, it is noticeable that increasing the proportion of the first (nano-grade) particles to the second (high refractive) particles improves the gloss, clarity and reflection properties. Changing the diameter of the first particles also improves the antiglare property and improves the clarity.
- 1) In respective comparison of haze, gloss, clarity and reflection, it is clear that the clarity and reflection properties of the three embodiments are better than that of the
- As shown in
FIG. 1 andFIG. 4 , anantiglare film 1 of the invention is applicable to a polarizer. The polarizer 3 includes apolarizing element 31, afirst substrate film 32 a, asecond substrate film 32 b and anantiglare film 1. - The
polarizing element 31 is made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The first andsecond substrate films polarizing element 31. Theantiglare film 1 is adhered to the other side of thefirst substrate film 32 a. - The
antiglare film 1 includes a light-transparent resin 11, first light-transparent particles 12 and second light-transparent particles 13. As theantiglare film 1 being adhered tofirst substrate film 32 a, the interior light passing through thesubstrate film 32 a and the exterior light irradiating on thesubstrate film 32 a are diffused to avoid glare to user's eyes, to increase visibility of the displayed image and to decrease the reflectivity of the screen. - The light-
transparent resin 11 is at least composed of a curable resin, such as ultraviolet-curing resin, having high transparency. Theresin 11 is well mixed with the first light-transparent particles 12 and the second light-transparent particles 13, and then painted on surface of thesubstrate 2, which is the screen of a display, for example. The resin mixture is then cured and fixed on thesubstrate 2 where the first and second light-transparent particles antiglare film 1. - The first light-
transparent particles 12 are dispersed on surface and in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the first light-transparent particles 12 is the same as that of theresin 11. The diameters of the first light-transparent particles 12 are of nano-grade, such as 9 to 500 nanometers, so as to be easily dispersed and make a uniform coating surface. - The second light-
transparent particles 13 are dispersed in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the second light-transparent particles is different from that of theresin 11. The diameters of the second light-transparent particles 13 are larger than that of the first light-transparent particles 12, such as 1 to 10 micrometers, and preferably 1 to 5 micrometers, and the refractive index is 1.50 to 1.65, so as to be dispersed inside theresin 11 by their own weight and push the first light-transparent particles 12 up the surface of theresin 11 or adjacent to the first light-transparent particles 12. - As shown in
FIG. 2 , when exterior light irradiates on theantiglare film 1, the roughness of the first light-transparent particles 12 dispersed on surface of theresin 11 diffuses the exterior light. Because the first light-transparent particles 12 are of nano-grade, the roughness of the resin surface is less so that the display image provided by interior light is diffused with smaller angles and remained clear. As shown inFIG. 3 , when interior light passing through thesubstrate film 32 a to theantiglare film 1, since the second light-transparent particles 13 having a refractive index different from that of theresin 11 are dispersed inside theresin 11, the interior light is diffused. As for the first light-transparent particles 12 dispersed in theresin 11, since they have a same refractive index as the resin, they do not diffuse the light. - As shown in
FIG. 1 andFIG. 5 , an antiglare film of the invention is applicable to a display 4. The display 4 includes aLCD panel 41 and abacklight module 42. - The
LCD panel 41 is composed of aLCD layer 411 held by twopolarizers polarizers polarizer 3 a is coated with anantiglare film 1. Theantiglare film 1 includes a light-transparent resin 11, first light-transparent particles 12 and second light-transparent particles 13. As theantiglare film 1 being adhered to the surface of thepolarizer 3 a (the surface including a substrate film, made of triacetate, is not shown in the drawing), the interior light passing through thepolarizer 3 a and the exterior light irradiating on thepolarizer 3 a are diffused to avoid glare to user's eyes, to increase visibility of the displayed image and to decrease the reflectivity of the display 4 by optical interference effects of the two light-transparent particles - The light-
transparent resin 11 is at least composed of a curable resin, such as ultraviolet-curing resin, having high transparency. Theresin 11 is well mixed with the first light-transparent particles 12 and the second light-transparent particles 13, and then painted on surface of a substrate film of thepolarizer 3 a. The resin mixture is then cured and fixed on the substrate film where the first and second light-transparent particles antiglare film 1. - The first light-
transparent particles 12 are dispersed on surface and in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the first light-transparent particles 12 is the same as that of theresin 11. The diameters of the first light-transparent particles 12 are of nano-grade, such as 9 to 500 nanometers, so as to be easily dispersed and make a uniform coating surface. - The second light-
transparent particles 13 are dispersed in the interior of theresin 11. The refractive index of the second light-transparent particles is different from that of theresin 11. The diameters of the second light-transparent particles 13 are larger than that of the first light-transparent particles 12, such as 1 to 10 micrometers, and preferably 1 to 5 micrometers, and the refractive index is 1.50 to 1.65, so as to be dispersed inside theresin 11 by their own weight and push the first light-transparent particles 12 up the surface of theresin 11. - As for the
backlight module 42, it is mounted on another side of theLCD panel 41 and apart from thepolarizer 3 a. - Similar to
FIG. 2 andFIG. 3 , the interior and exterior light are diffused by the aforesaidantiglare film 1 so that the visibility of the display is improved, the reflectivity of the display is decreased, and the image contrast is enhanced. - In conclusion, an antiglare film of the invention has the following advantages:
-
- a) When exterior light irradiates on the antiglare film, the light is diffused by first light-transparent particles located on surface of the antiglare film. Since the first particles are of nano-grade, the roughness of the surface is less, and the clarity and contrast of the image is improved;
- b) When interior light passes through the antiglare film, the light is diffused by the second light-transparent particles located inside the antiglare film so as to reduce glare;
- c) By diffusion of the interior light and the exterior light, the antiglare film reduces glare, improves visibility and reduces reflectivity; and
- d) The process for making the antiglare film requires just one step of coating.
- While, the conventional process for making a low reflectivity antiglare film requires several times of coating.
- The invention being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
