The present invention addresses a problem that a conventional thinned and high-transmittance polarizing plate has poor durability.Provided is a polarizing film in the form of a continuous web, which is comprised of a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin containing potassium and molecularly-oriented iodine, wherein the polarizing film has a thickness of 7 μm or less, and exhibits a single transmittance of 44.0% or more, and wherein a mole ratio (PK) of elemental iodine (I) to elemental potassium (K) contained in the polarizing film is 1.8 or more.
Abstract:
An optical laminate in which a polarizing film including a polyvinyl alcohol-based resin having oriented iodine is bonded on a first surface of the polarizing film to an optical film through an optically transparent adhesive layer is provided. The polarizing film exhibits a property that a value expressed by the following formula: Aa×(Is/Ia), is 0.53 or more, where: Aa represents an absorbance; Ia represents a value obtained by integrating a distribution of integrated intensities in the thickness direction of the polarizing film; and Is represents a value obtained by integrating, a distribution of integrated intensities in the thickness direction of the polarizing film; and the adhesive layer exhibits a property that a difference between a refractive index of the adhesive layer and a refractive index in the absorption axis direction of the polarizing film at the first surface of the polarizing film is 0.08 or less.

[TECHNICAL PROBLEM]Provided a polarizing film which comprising a substrate and a PVA-based resin, wherein it has good adhesion between the substrate and the PVA-based resin to allow the PVA-based resin to become less likely to be peeled off from the substrate during stretching and/or conveyance, and exhibits excellent appearance.[SOLUTION]The polarizing film is obtained by providing a layer of a PVA-based resin on a substrate and stretching the substrate and the PVA-based resin layer together. The PVA-based resin contains a modified PVA, wherein the modified PVA exists in an amount allowing a modification rate with respect to the entire PVA-based resin to be in a range of 0.04 mol % to 1.4 mol %.
Abstract:
A method of producing a roll of a continuous web of an optical film laminate, usable in a process of laminating an optical film sheet including a polarizing film and formed to a size corresponding to that an optical panel to a surface of the optical panel being fed to a lamination position, is disclosed. The polarizing film is prepared by subjecting a laminate including a thermoplastic resin substrate and a PVA type resin layer formed on the substrate, to uniaxial 2-stage stretching to reduce a thickness of the PVA type resin layer to 10 μm or less, and causing a dichroic material to be absorbed in the PVA type resin layer. A carrier film is releasably attached to the continuous web of optical film laminate including the polarizing film, through an adhesive layer. A defect inspection is performed for the optical film laminate and the adhesive layer.
