Benefits of technology

[0009]The present invention provides a dichroic azo dyestuff with heat proof and moisture proof characters. The present invention also provides a dye type polarizing film.

Problems solved by technology

The major disadvantage of Ioding Type Polarizing Film is that the polarized efficiency is reduced within the elapsed time under high temperature and moisture.
Although the utilization of boric acid, glyoxal, or heat treatment which can form polyethylene caused by the reduction of OH groups enhances the heat proof character, it is still not met the requirement of heat and moisture proof claimed in some situations.
However, the major disadvantage is the low polarized efficiency.

example 1

[0036]Preparing the azo-dyestuff compound of formula (1):

[0037]The above azo-dyestuff compound of formula (1) can be obtained, according to the following three steps:

1. DiDiazotization:

[0038]

[0039]40 parts of 4-amino-4′-nitrostilbene-2,2′-disulfonic acid (A) was dissolved in 300 parts of water and 30 parts of 32% hydrochloride acid was added, followed by stirring at 0-5° C. Diazotization was realized with the addition of 8 parts of sodium nitrite at the same temperature range.

2. Coupling Reaction:

[0040]

[0041]35.12 parts of 2-amino-5-hydroxynaphthalene-1,7-disulfonic acid (C) was dissolved in the mixture of 200 parts of cool water and 35 parts of sodium carbonate, to which the above reagent (B) from Diazotization was then added dropwise. Thereby, the coupling reaction was realized. After the reaction was completed, the monoazo compound of free acid (D) was obtained by filtration.

3. Semi-Reduction:

[0042]

[0043]The monoazo compound (D) was dissolved in 400 parts of water, followed by th...

[0044]Repeat the reaction steps of Example 1, but the 2-amino-5-hydroxynaphthalene-1,7-disulfonic acid of reactant (C) is replaced with the following reactant (C) as shown in Table 1. After completed the reaction, the reaction solution are filtered and dried to obtain the products of formula (2) to formula (12) as shown in Table 1. The A max of the compounds of formula (2) to formula (12) in water were presented in Table 1.

example 13

[0051]The polyvinyl alcohol film of 75 μm thickness, Kuraray vinylon 7500 made from Kuraray, was stretched five-fold longer in one vertical direction and the base material of the polarizing film was obtained. The polyvinyl alcohol film in strain form was dipped in the 65° C. solution of 0.025% azo compound of formula (1) made from Example 1 and 2.0% sodium sulfate (served as a dyeing agent). Then, the film was dipped in 7.5% boric acid at 65° C. for five minutes, followed by taking out the film. The polarizing film was obtained after it was washed with 20° C. water for 20 seconds and dried at 50° C. The characteristics of the polarizing film are V=99.97 and Ts=45.07. The polarizing film with high-polarized efficiency does not discolor under the high-temperature and high-moisture condition.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a novel dichroic azo dyestuff used for a polarizing film and the polarizing film thereof.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]The current polarizing films are grouped into Ioding Type and Dye Type.[0005]Ioding Type Polarizing Film: the polarizing film constituted with PVA and iodine is the major part of the market. The major disadvantage of Ioding Type Polarizing Film is that the polarized efficiency is reduced within the elapsed time under high temperature and moisture. Although the utilization of boric acid, glyoxal, or heat treatment which can form polyethylene caused by the reduction of OH groups enhances the heat proof character, it is still not met the requirement of heat and moisture proof claimed in some situations.[0006]A direct azo-dye is the major part of the dichroic dyestuff used for Dye Type Polarizing Film. It is the characteristic that the axial in the structure o...
