従来、前面板または背面板の粘着剤層側の表面に部分的に着色層が形成された屈曲性を有する光学積層体は、着色層と粘着剤層との間や、第1粘着剤層と第2粘着剤層との間、前面板もしくは背面板と粘着剤層との間に長さが10μm以上の気泡(以下、特定気泡ともいう)が生じる問題があった。本発明者が、気泡の抑制について鋭意研究を行ったところ、着色層が存在する領域と着色層が存在しない領域との間において積層体厚み方向に段差が生じ、その段差上に形成される粘着剤層が段差に追従できず、粘着剤層と、着色層が形成された前面板または背面板との間、とりわけ前面板もしくは背面板と着色層との段差部に気泡が生じ易いことを突止めた。そこで、粘着剤層に着目してさらなる研究を重ねたところ、粘着剤層を2層構造とし、2層のうち着色層と接する層の損失正接(以下、tanδともいう)を特定の範囲内とし、それぞれの粘着剤層がアクリル系樹脂を含み、特定の貯蔵弾性率を示すことにより、屈曲性を損なうことなく、気泡を抑制することができることを見出した。 Conventionally, a flexible optical laminate in which a colored layer is partially formed on the surface of the front plate or the back plate on the side of the pressure-sensitive adhesive has a flexibility between the colored layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer or between the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. There is a problem that bubbles having a length of 10 μm or more (hereinafter, also referred to as specific bubbles) are formed between the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and between the front plate or the back plate and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. The present inventor has conducted extensive research on suppression of bubbles, and as a result, a step is formed in the thickness direction of the laminate between the region where the colored layer is present and the region where the colored layer is not present, and the adhesive formed on the step. The agent layer cannot follow the step, and bubbles are likely to occur between the adhesive layer and the front plate or the back plate on which the colored layer is formed, particularly in the step between the front plate or the back plate and the colored layer. stopped. Therefore, when further research was conducted focusing on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer was made to have a two-layer structure, and the loss tangent (hereinafter also referred to as tan δ) of the layer in contact with the colored layer was set within a specific range. It has been found that each adhesive layer contains an acrylic resin and exhibits a specific storage elastic modulus, whereby bubbles can be suppressed without impairing the flexibility.
特定気泡は、光学顕微鏡で積層体の透過像を観測することにより観察することができる。特定気泡は、積層体平面方向において着色層内側の端部に平行に発生することが多い。そのため特定気泡の形状は線状であることが多い。特定気泡が線状である場合、長さは10μm以上であり、幅は例えば0.01μm以上5μm以下であってよい。特定気泡が発生するときは、着色層と粘着剤層との間、および前面板もしくは背面板と粘着剤層との間の両方に発生する場合が多く、この場合、着色層内側の端部を基準とするとき、その基準を対称の軸とする位置に発生することが多い。 The specific bubbles can be observed by observing the transmission image of the laminate with an optical microscope. The specific bubbles are often generated in parallel with the end portion inside the colored layer in the plane direction of the laminate. Therefore, the shape of the specific bubble is often linear. When the specific bubbles are linear, the length may be 10 μm or more and the width may be, for example, 0.01 μm or more and 5 μm or less. When specific bubbles are generated, they are often generated both between the colored layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and between the front plate or the back plate and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer. When the reference is used, it often occurs at a position with the reference as the axis of symmetry.

The film coated with a dye having absorption anisotropy, which is used as a polarizer, is a stretched film on which a dye having absorption anisotropy is adsorbed, or a composition or a dichroic dye containing liquid crystallinity. Examples thereof include a film having a layer obtained by applying a composition containing a colorant and a polymerizable liquid crystal and curing the composition. A film coated with a dye having absorption anisotropy and cured is preferable because it has no limitation in the bending direction as compared with a stretched film to which a dye having absorption anisotropy is adsorbed.

The stretched film, which is a polarizer and has a dye having absorption anisotropy adsorbed, is usually a step of uniaxially stretching a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film, by staining the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film with a dichroic dye, It is manufactured through a step of adsorbing a dichroic dye, a step of treating the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film on which the dichroic pigment is adsorbed with a boric acid aqueous solution, and a step of washing with water after the treatment with the boric acid aqueous solution. Such a polarizer may be used as it is as a polarizing plate, or one having a transparent protective film laminated on one side or both sides may be used as a polarizing plate. The thickness of the thus obtained polarizer is preferably 2 μm or more and 40 μm or less.
ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂は、ポリ酢酸ビニル系樹脂をケン化することによって得られる。ポリ酢酸ビニル系樹脂としては、酢酸ビニルの単独重合体であるポリ酢酸ビニルのほか、酢酸ビニルとそれに共重合可能な他の単量体との共重合体が用いられる。酢酸ビニルに共重合可能な他の単量体としては、例えば、不飽和カルボン酸類、オレフィン類、ビニルエーテル類、不飽和スルホン酸類、アンモニウム基を有するアクリルアミド類などが挙げられる。 Polyvinyl alcohol resin is obtained by saponifying polyvinyl acetate resin. As the polyvinyl acetate resin, in addition to polyvinyl acetate, which is a homopolymer of vinyl acetate, a copolymer of vinyl acetate and another monomer copolymerizable therewith is used. Examples of the other monomer copolymerizable with vinyl acetate include unsaturated carboxylic acids, olefins, vinyl ethers, unsaturated sulfonic acids, and acrylamides having an ammonium group.
ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂のケン化度は、通常85モル%以上100モル%以下であり、好ましくは98モル%以上である。ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂は変性されていてもよく、例えば、アルデヒド類で変性されたポリビニルホルマールやポリビニルアセタールも使用することができる。ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂の重合度は、通常1,000以上10,000以下程度であり、好ましくは1,500以上5,000以下の範囲である。 The saponification degree of the polyvinyl alcohol resin is usually 85 mol% or more and 100 mol% or less, and preferably 98 mol% or more. The polyvinyl alcohol-based resin may be modified, and for example, polyvinyl formal or polyvinyl acetal modified with aldehydes can also be used. The polymerization degree of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin is usually about 1,000 or more and 10,000 or less, preferably 1,500 or more and 5,000 or less.
このようなポリビニルアルコール系樹脂を製膜したものが、偏光板の原反フィルムとして用いられる。ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂を製膜する方法は、特に限定されるものでなく、公知の方法で製膜することができる。ポリビニルアルコール系原反フィルムの膜厚は、例えば、10μm以上150μm以下程度とすることができる。 A film produced from such a polyvinyl alcohol resin is used as a raw film for polarizing plates. The method for forming the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin into a film is not particularly limited, and the film can be formed by a known method. The film thickness of the polyvinyl alcohol-based raw film can be, for example, about 10 μm or more and 150 μm or less.
ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂フィルムの一軸延伸は、二色性色素による染色の前、染色と同時、または染色の後で行うことができる。一軸延伸を染色の後で行う場合、この一軸延伸は、ホウ酸処理の前に行ってもよいし、ホウ酸処理中に行ってもよい。また、これらの複数の段階で一軸延伸を行うことも可能である。一軸延伸にあたっては、周速の異なるロール間で一軸に延伸してもよいし、熱ロールを用いて一軸に延伸してもよい。また一軸延伸は、大気中で延伸を行う乾式延伸であってもよいし、溶剤を用い、ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂フィルムを膨潤させた状態で延伸を行う湿式延伸であってもよい。延伸倍率は、通常3~8倍程度である。 Uniaxial stretching of the polyvinyl alcohol-based resin film can be performed before dyeing with the dichroic dye, simultaneously with dyeing, or after dyeing. When the uniaxial stretching is performed after dyeing, the uniaxial stretching may be performed before the boric acid treatment or during the boric acid treatment. It is also possible to carry out uniaxial stretching in these plural stages. In uniaxial stretching, stretching may be performed uniaxially between rolls having different peripheral speeds, or uniaxial stretching may be performed using a heat roll. The uniaxial stretching may be dry stretching in which the stretching is performed in the air, or wet stretching in which the polyvinyl alcohol resin film is swollen with a solvent. The draw ratio is usually about 3 to 8 times.
延伸フィルムを偏光子として備える偏光板の厚みは、例えば1μm以上400μm以下であってよく、5μm以上100μm以下であってもよい。 The thickness of a polarizing plate provided with a stretched film as a polarizer may be, for example, 1 μm or more and 400 μm or less, or may be 5 μm or more and 100 μm or less.
偏光子の片面または両面に貼合される保護フィルムの材料としては、特に限定されるものではないが、例えば、環状ポリオレフィン系樹脂フィルム、トリアセチルセルロース、ジアセチルセルロースのような樹脂からなる酢酸セルロース系樹脂フィルム、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレンナフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレートのような樹脂からなるポリエステル系樹脂フィルム、ポリカーボネート系樹脂フィルム、(メタ)アクリル系樹脂フィルム、ポリプロピレン系樹脂フィルムなど、当分野において公知のフィルムを挙げることができる。保護フィルムの厚みは、薄型化の観点から、通常300μm以下であり、200μm以下であることが好ましく、100μm以下であることがより好ましく、また、通常5μm以上であり、20μm以上であることが好ましい。保護フィルムは位相差を有していても、有していなくてもよい。 The material of the protective film to be attached to one side or both sides of the polarizer is not particularly limited, for example, cyclic polyolefin resin film, triacetyl cellulose, cellulose acetate-based resin consisting of diacetyl cellulose. Films known in the art such as resin films, polyester resin films made of resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, and polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate resin films, (meth) acrylic resin films, polypropylene resin films, etc. Can be mentioned. From the viewpoint of thinning, the thickness of the protective film is usually 300 μm or less, preferably 200 μm or less, more preferably 100 μm or less, and usually 5 μm or more, preferably 20 μm or more. . The protective film may or may not have a retardation.

Examples thereof include films obtained by applying and curing. The film may be used as a polarizing plate by peeling the base material or together with the base material, or may be used as a polarizing plate with a structure having a protective film on one side or both sides thereof. The protective film may be the same as the polarizing plate including the above-mentioned stretched film as a polarizer.
吸収異方性を有する色素を塗布し硬化して得られたフィルムは薄い方が好ましいが、薄すぎると強度が低下し、加工性に劣る傾向がある。当該フィルムの厚さは、通常20μm以下であり、好ましくは5μm以下であり、より好ましくは0.5μm以上3μm以下である。 It is preferable that the film obtained by applying and curing a dye having absorption anisotropy is thin, but if it is too thin, the strength tends to decrease and the processability tends to deteriorate. The thickness of the film is usually 20 μm or less, preferably 5 μm or less, and more preferably 0.5 μm or more and 3 μm or less.
前記吸収異方性を有する色素を塗布して得られたフィルムとしては、具体的には、特開2012-33249号公報等に記載のフィルムが挙げられる。 Specific examples of the film obtained by applying the dye having the absorption anisotropy include those described in JP 2012-33249 A and the like.

The test was carried out as follows at a measurement temperature of 25 ° C. so as to be perpendicular to the main surface (surface perpendicular to the thickness direction) of the measurement sample. Even when the measurement is performed so that the pushing direction of the indenter is perpendicular to the side surface of the measurement sample (the plane parallel to the thickness direction), the measured value is the indentation direction of the main surface of the measurement sample. This is the same as when the measurement is performed so as to be perpendicular to.
While the indenter was in contact with the measurement sample and applying a load, after reaching the set test force (1 mN), it was held for 5 seconds for unloading. The slope of the tangent line at the maximum test force was obtained from the stress-strain curve obtained during unloading and defined as the compressive elastic modulus (E '= δ / ε). The results are shown in Table 2.
