に関する。
本発明の積層フィルムは、PVAフィルムと熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとが隣接している。
PVAフィルムを構成するPVAとしては、酢酸ビニル、ギ酸ビニル、プロピオン酸ビニル、酪酸ビニル、ピバリン酸ビニル、バーサティック酸ビニル、ラウリン酸ビニル、ステアリン酸ビニル、安息香酸ビニル、酢酸イソプロペニル等のビニルエステルの1種または2種以上を重合して得られるポリビニルエステルをけん化することにより得られるものを使用することができる。上記のビニルエステルの中でも、PVAの製造の容易性、入手の容易性、コスト等の点から、分子中にビニルオキシカルボニル基(H2C=CH-O-CO-)を有する化合物が好ましく、酢酸ビニルがより好ましい。
これらの界面活性剤は1種を単独でまたは2種以上を組み合わせて使用することができる。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを構成する熱可塑性樹脂としては、例えば、ポリオレフィン(ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリメチルペンテン等)、ポリスチレン、ポリカーボネート、ポリ塩化ビニル、メタクリル樹脂、ナイロン、ポリエチレンテレフタレート等の各種熱可塑性樹脂、およびこれらの熱可塑性樹脂を構成する単量体単位を複数種有する共重合体などが挙げられる。熱可塑性樹脂フィルムにおいて、熱可塑性樹脂は1種のみ含まれていても、2種以上含まれていてもどちらでもよい。これらの中でも、高い延伸性を備える点で、ポリオレフィンが好ましい。なお、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを製造する方法に特に制限はなく、溶融成形やカレンダー成形など、公知の方法で製造することができる。
本発明の積層フィルムを偏光フィルム製造用の原反フィルムとして使用する場合において、PVAフィルムと熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとの間の接着強度は200mN/15mm以下であることが必要である。当該接着強度が200mN/15mmを超えると、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの除去がかなり困難になることに加えて、後述するように熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとPVAフィルムとが隣接している状態で延伸工程を行う場合においては、PVAフィルムの適度なネックインが妨げられて、偏光性能に優れる偏光フィルムが得られにくくなる。この観点から、上記接着強度は、100mN/15mm以下であることが好ましく、10mN/15mm以下であることがより好ましく、5mN/15mm以下であることが更に好ましい。また、本発明の積層フィルムを偏光フィルム製造用の原反フィルムとして使用する場合に限らず、上記接着強度が1.5mN/15mm未満であると、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの除去がより容易になる。この観点から、上記接着強度は、1.3mN/15mm未満であることがより好ましく、両フィルムが単に隣接しているだけで実質的に接着していない状態(接着強度は1.0mN/15mm未満)であることが更に好ましい。なお、上記接着強度はJIS K6854-3:1999に記載されているようなT形はく離試験によって測定することができ、具体的には実施例において後述する方法により測定することができる。
上記接着強度が200mN/15mm以下である本発明の積層フィルムは、偏光フィルム製造用の原反フィルムとして使用される。一方、上記接着強度が1.5mN/15mm未満である本発明の積層フィルムは、水と接触させる工程を通過してもカールの発生が抑制され、また延伸をする場合には延伸切れの発生を低減でき、しかも最終的に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去する際にその除去が極めて容易であることから、位相差フィルム製造用の原反フィルム等、一般的なPVAフィルムの用途として従来知られている各種用途に好適に用いることができるが、当該積層フィルムにおいても、本発明の効果を生かして、偏光フィルム製造用の原反フィルムとして用いることが好ましい。
本発明の積層フィルムを用いて偏光フィルムを製造する際の製造方法に特に制限はないが、本発明の効果がより一層顕著に奏されることから、積層フィルムを水と接触させる工程(水接触工程)と、その後、PVAフィルムを延伸する工程(延伸工程)とを有する製造方法が好ましい。薄いPVAフィルムを単層で用いて水接触工程と、その後の延伸工程とを経て偏光フィルムを製造した場合には、水接触工程の後にフィルムの幅方向の両端部にカールが発生し、その後の延伸工程でPVAフィルムの延伸切れが発生しやすいが、本発明の積層フィルムに対して水接触工程を行うことで、当該カールが抑制され、延伸工程におけるPVAフィルムの延伸切れを防止することができる。
水接触工程としては、例えば、膨潤処理工程、染色処理工程、架橋処理工程などが挙げられ、これらのうちの1つまたは複数の工程を採用することができる。偏光性能などに優れた偏光フィルムを容易に製造することができることから、水接触工程として、膨潤処理工程、染色処理工程および架橋処理工程をこの順に施すことが好ましい。水接触工程における積層フィルムと水との接触は、積層フィルムに対して水を吹き付ける方法でも、積層フィルムを水中に浸漬する方法でもどちらでもよいが、偏光フィルムの製造の容易さおよび生産性などの観点から、積層フィルムを水中に浸漬する方法が好ましい。なお、使用される水は純水に限定されず、各工程の目的に応じて、後述するような水溶液や更には水性分散液などを用いることもできる。
水接触工程を経た後、PVAフィルムを延伸する延伸工程を行い、必要に応じてさらに固定処理および乾燥処理を施すことにより、偏光フィルムを製造することができる。延伸工程においては、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとPVAフィルムとが隣接している状態で当該PVAフィルムを延伸してもよいし、あるいは、延伸工程の前に、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去した後、当該PVAフィルムを延伸してもよい。前者の場合には、延伸工程またはその後の固定処理工程の後であって乾燥処理工程の前に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去してもよいし、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの耐熱性が高い場合などにおいては、乾燥処理工程の後に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去してもよい。
固定処理工程における固定処理は、主として、延伸されたPVAフィルムへの二色性色素の吸着を強固にするために施される。固定処理は延伸されたPVAフィルムを固定処理浴中に浸漬することにより行うことができる。固定処理浴としては、ホウ酸、ホウ砂等のホウ酸塩などのホウ素化合物の1種または2種以上を含む水溶液を使用することができる。また、必要に応じて、固定処理浴中にヨウ素化合物や金属化合物を添加してもよい。固定処理浴として使用されるホウ素化合物を含む水溶液中におけるホウ素化合物の濃度は、一般に2~15質量%の範囲内であることが好ましく、3~10質量%の範囲内であることがより好ましい。固定処理浴の温度は、15~60℃の範囲内であることが好ましく、25~40℃の範囲内であることがより好ましい。
乾燥処理工程における乾燥処理の条件は特に制限されないが、乾燥温度は30~150℃の範囲内であることが好ましく、50~130℃の範囲内であることがより好ましい。上記範囲内の温度で乾燥することで寸法安定性に優れる偏光フィルムが得られやすい。
以下の実施例または比較例において製造された積層フィルムから、長さ方向に200mm×幅方向に15mmの短冊状のフィルム片を切り出し、このフィルム片を用いてJIS K6854-3:1999の記載と同様にしてT形はく離試験を5回実施し、その平均値を接着強度とした。当該試験において測定条件は、温度:28℃、湿度:50%RH、引張試験機のチャック間隔:50mm、引張速度:250mm/分(フィルム片におけるはく離点の移動速度は125mm/分)とした。なお、両フィルムが実質的に接着していない場合など、接着強度が低すぎてフィルム片を切り出す際に両フィルムが剥がれた場合には、フィルム間の接着強度は1.0mN/15mm未満と評価した。
(a)透過率Tsの測定
以下の実施例または比較例で得られた偏光フィルムの幅方向の中央部から、偏光フィルムの長さ方向に2cm×幅方向に2cmの正方形のサンプルを2枚採取し、積分球付き分光光度計(日本分光株式会社製「V7100」)を用いて、JIS Z8722:2009(物体色の測定方法)に準拠し、C光源、2°視野の可視光領域の視感度補正を行い、1枚のサンプルについて、長さ方向に対して45°傾けた場合の光の透過率と-45°傾けた場合の光の透過率を測定して、それらの平均値Ts1(%)を求めた。もう1枚のサンプルについても同様にして、45°傾けた場合の光の透過率と-45°傾けた場合の光の透過率を測定して、それらの平均値Ts2(%)を求めた。下記式(1)によりTs1とTs2を平均し、偏光フィルムの透過率Ts(%)とした。
Ts = (Ts1+Ts2)/2 (1)
上記透過率Tsの測定で採取した2枚のサンプルを、その長さ方向が平行になるように重ねた場合の光の透過率T∥(%)、長さ方向が直交するように重ねた場合の光の透過率T⊥(%)を、上記「(a)透過率Tsの測定」の場合と同様にして測定し、下記式(2)により偏光度V(%)を求めた。
V = {(T∥-T⊥)/(T∥+T⊥)}1/2×100 (2)

なお、膨潤処理として、積層フィルムを蒸留水(温度:30℃)中に1分間浸漬し、その間に長さ方向に延伸倍率2倍で一軸延伸した。また染色処理として、積層フィルムをヨウ素系色素を含有する水溶液(使用されるヨウ素の濃度:0.05質量%、使用されるヨウ化カリウムの濃度:1.2質量%、温度:30℃)中に2分間浸漬し、その間に長さ方向に延伸倍率1.2倍で一軸延伸した。更に架橋処理として、積層フィルムをホウ酸水溶液(ホウ酸濃度:2.6質量%、温度:30℃)中に2分間浸漬し、その間に長さ方向に延伸倍率1.1倍で一軸延伸した。
なお、延伸処理として、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムに隣接しているPVAフィルムをホウ酸水溶液(ホウ酸濃度:2.8質量%、ヨウ化カリウム濃度:5質量%、温度:57℃)中で長さ方向に延伸倍率2.4倍で一軸延伸した(水接触工程での前延伸の延伸倍率をも含めた全延伸倍率は6.3倍)。また乾燥処理として、延伸されたPVAフィルムを60℃で1分間乾燥した。

熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとして厚み50μmで幅が1.2mの長尺の低密度ポリエチレンフィルム(LDPEフィルム、タマポリ株式会社製、A-1)を用いたこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、連続的に偏光フィルムを製造した。なお、積層フィルムにおいて、両フィルム間の接着強度は1.0mN/15mm未満であった。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとして厚み50μmで幅が1.2mの、表面に粘着加工を施した高密度ポリエチレンフィルム(HDPEフィルム、株式会社サンエー化研製、PAC-4K-80)を用い、粘着加工面がPVAフィルム側になるように重ね合わせたこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、連続的に偏光フィルムを製造した。なお、積層フィルムにおいて、両フィルム間の接着強度は150mN/15mmであった。
延伸工程の前に、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去し、PVAフィルムを単独で延伸したこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、連続的に偏光フィルムを製造した。
熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを用いずにPVAフィルムを単層で用いて水接触工程と、その後の延伸工程とを行ったこと以外は実施例1と同様にして、連続的に偏光フィルムを製造した。
厚みが200μmで幅が1mの長尺の非晶性ポリエチレンテレフタレートフィルム(A-PETフィルム、三菱樹脂株式会社製「ノバクリアー」)にPVA濃度が10質量%の水溶液(PVAとグリセリンと界面活性剤を含み、グリセリンの含有量がPVA100質量部に対して12質量部で、界面活性剤の含有量がPVA100質量部に対して0.03質量部であるPVA水溶液。PVAは酢酸ビニルの単独重合体のけん化物であり、PVAの重合度は2400で、PVAのけん化度は99.9モル%。)を塗布し、60℃で乾燥させることにより、熱可塑性樹脂フィルム上に厚みが30μmのPVAフィルムが形成された積層フィルムを作製した(熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとPVAフィルムとの間の接着強度は250mN/15mm)。こうして得られた積層フィルムに対し、実施例1と同様にして、膨潤処理、染色処理および架橋処理をこの順に施すことにより水接触工程を行い、更にそのまま実施例1と同様にして、延伸処理および乾燥処理をこの順に施して、連続的に偏光フィルムを製造した。なお、PVAフィルムと熱可塑性樹脂フィルムとの間の接着強度が高く、延伸処理後の乾燥処理前に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去することが極めて困難であったため、乾燥処理後に熱可塑性樹脂フィルムを除去して偏光フィルムとしたが、熱可塑性樹脂フィルムの除去は依然として困難であった。
