Abstract

A method of producing a mold for use in duplicating a light diffusion sheet is provided. The method includes a step of conducting sand blasting for blasting abrasive material from a blast gun to a surface of a mold base material to form unevenness in the surface of the mold base material, wherein the abrasive material is blasted to the surface of the mold base material at a blast angle of less than 90°.

Claims (15)

1. A method of producing a mold for use in duplicating a light diffusion sheet, the method comprising:

conducting sandblasting which blasts abrasive material from a blast gun to a surface of a mold base material to form unevenness in the surface of the mold base material,

wherein,

the sandblasting is conducted such that an angle between the surface of the mold base material and the blast gun is within a range of 0 to 60°, and

a resulting pitch of the surface roughness in the lateral direction is longer than a pitch of the surface roughness in the longitudinal direction.

2. A method of producing a mold for use in duplicating a light diffusion sheet according to claim 1 , wherein

the sandblasting is conducted such that the angle between the surface of the mold base material and the blast gun is within a range of 0 to 20°.

3. A method of producing a light diffusion sheet, the method including the step of:

duplicating a light diffusion sheet using a mold,

wherein,

the mold is produced by conducting sandblasting which blasts abrasive material from a blast gun to the surface of a mold base material to form unevenness in the surface of the mold base material,

the abrasive material is blasted from the blast gun to the surface of the mold base material such that an angle between the surface of the mold base material and the blast gun is within a range of 0 to 60°, and

a resulting pitch of the surface roughness in the lateral direction is longer than a pitch of the surface roughness in the longitudinal direction.

4. The method of producing a light diffusion sheet according to claim 3 , wherein

the abrasive material is blasted from the blast gun to the surface of the mold base material such that the angle between the surface of the mold base material and the blast gun is within a range of 0 to 20°.
