Benefits of technology

[0009]It is an object of the present invention to provide a multilayer laminated film production method that includes bonding a transparent film to a resin film and can prevent bubbles from being formed between the resin film and the transparent film and can also prevent the production of wrinkles or stripe-like irregularities.
[0024]The multilayer laminated film production method according to the present invention applies a sequential lamination process and uses a pair of an elastic roll and a metal roll to laminate the films to each other. In addition, both the process of laminating a resin film and a transparent film and the process of laminating another transparent film and the resin film side of a laminated film comprising the resin film and the transparent film bonded to each other each include passing the films in such a manner that the transparent film is placed on the metal roll side. Such a combination of rolls blocks the water-containing resin film from coming into contact with the metal roll and allows the lamination of the resin film and the transparent film by the elastic force of the elastic roll so that bubbles can be prevented from being formed between the resin film and the transparent film, and thus a multilayer laminated film can be successfully produced. In addition, the production of wrinkles or stripe-like irregularities can also be prevented.
[0025]In the multilayer laminated film production method of the present invention, the angle of feeding of each film may be controlled in such a manner that the angle (θ1a) of feeding of the resin film and the angle (θ1b) of feeding of the first transparent film can be opposite in direction to each other with respect to the tangent line at the endpoint of the inwardly deformed portion of the first elastic roll and / or in such a manner that the angle (θ2a) of feeding of the laminated film and the angle (θ2b) of feeding of the second transparent film can be opposite in direction to each other with respect to the tangent line at the endpoint of the inwardly deformed portion of the second elastic roll. In this case, the period from the time of the first contact between the resin film and the first transparent film or between the laminated film and the second transparent film to the time when the films are press-bonded to each other by the rolls can be controlled to be relatively short so that bubble can be further prevented from being formed between the resin film and the transparent film.
[0026]If a polarizing film is used as the resin film and if a transparent protective film for the polarizing film is used as the transparent film, the multilayer laminated film production method will be suitable for the production of a polarizing plate, and the resulting polarizing plate can be free of the formation of bubbles between the films and free of the production of wrinkles or stripe-like irregularities and thus can have a good appearance. Such a polarizing plate can have high in-plane uniformity and high resolution and can form a high contrast image display such as a high contrast liquid crystal displays (LCD) and a high contrast electroluminescence display (ELD).

Problems solved by technology

If the resin film and the transparent film are laminated according to the above lamination method, however, bubbles can be formed between the resin film and the transparent film in the resulting multilayer laminated film.
In addition, wrinkles or stripe-like irregularities can also be produced.
Even using this method, however, the production of bubbles cannot be sufficiently prevented between the resin film and the transparent film in the multilayer laminated film.

Preparation of Polarizing Plate

[0164]A polarizing plate was prepared using the method shown in FIG. 1. The polarizing film was used as the resin film A, and the adhesive layer-attached TAC film was used as each of the first and second transparent films B1 and B2. The feeding of the adhesive layer-attached TAC film was performed in such a manner that the TAC film side was placed on the first metal roll b1 side and on the second metal roll b2 side. An iron roll with a diameter of 200 mm was used as each of the first metal roll b1 and the second metal roll b2. A roll with a diameter of 200 mm composed of an iron core and a rubber layer (with a hardness of 90 degrees and a thickness of 3 mm) provided around the iron core was used as each of the first elastic roll a1 and the second elastic roll a2.

[0165]The polarizing film and the adhesive layer-attached TAC film were fed between the first elastic roll and the first metal roll and bonded to each other under pressure so that a laminated f...

[0168]Polarizing plates were obtained using the process of Example 1, except that the angle (θ1a) or (θ1b) made by the line of feeding of each film with the tangent line (y1), the angle (θ2a) or (θ2b) made by the line of feeding of each film with the tangent line (y2), or the lamination pressure was changed as shown in Table 1.

[0169]A polarizing plate was obtained using the process of Example 16, except that the rubber layer of each of the first elastic roll and the second elastic roll was replaced by a rubber layer with a hardness of 65 degrees.

Abstract

A method for producing a multilayer laminated film comprising: laminating a resin film having a moisture percentage of 10% by weight to 60% by weight with a first transparent film and a second transparent film each having a moisture percentage of 0.5% by weight to 5% by weight to be bonded to both sides of the resin film through an adhesive or pressure-sensitive adhesive layer interposed therebetween; wherein the laminating comprising steps of: passing the resin film and the first transparent film between a pair of a first metal roll and a first elastic roll in such a manner that the first transparent film is placed on the first metal roll side so that they are bonded to each other under pressure to form a laminated film; and then, using the laminated film without winding up it and passing the laminated film and the second transparent film between a pair of a second metal roll and a second elastic roll in such a manner that the second transparent film is placed on the second metal roll side so that they are bonded to each other under pressure to form a multilayer laminated film. The method can prevent bubbles from being formed between the resin film and the transparent film.
