Abstract

Provided is a method for an optical film which elongates by forming a plurality of sheet pieces by cutting a pre-processing optical film in a width direction of the pre-processing optical film, aligning the plurality of sheet pieces in such a manner that first end portions parallel to the longitudinal direction of the pre-processing optical film are opposite to each other, and connecting end portions of the plurality of sheet pieces to each other.

Claims (21)

1. A method for manufacturing an optical film, comprising:

forming a plurality of sheet pieces by cutting a pre-processing optical film in which a release film, an adhesive layer, an optical member, and a surface protection film are sequentially stacked in a width direction of the pre-processing optical film;

aligning the plurality of sheet pieces in such a manner that first end portions parallel to a longitudinal direction of the pre-processing optical film are opposite to each other, wherein each of the sheet pieces has a first end portion and a second end portion, which are orthogonal to each other; and

connecting the first end portions of the plurality of sheet pieces, which are opposite to each other, by attaching a first connection member,

wherein, when an adhesive force between the first connection member and the release film of each sheet piece is represented by A, and an adhesive force between the release film of each sheet piece and the adhesive layer is represented by B, A is larger than B,

wherein an elongated post-processing optical film is manufactured.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a direction of an absorption axis formed in the optical member included in the post-processing optical film is orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the post-processing optical film.

3. A method for manufacturing an optical film, comprising:

forming a plurality of sheet pieces by cutting a pre-processing optical film in which a release film, an adhesive layer, an optical member, and a surface protection film are sequentially stacked in a width direction of the pre-processing optical film;

aligning the plurality of sheet pieces in such a manner that first end portions parallel to a longitudinal direction of the pre-processing optical film are opposite to each other, wherein each of the sheet pieces has a first end portion and a second end portion, which are orthogonal to each other; and

connecting the first end portions of the plurality of sheet pieces, which are opposite to each other,

wherein in the connecting, each release film on two adjacent sheet pieces are connected to each other by using a first connection member, and the surface protection film on each of two adjacent sheet pieces are connected to each other by using a second connection member,

wherein an elongated post-processing optical film is manufactured.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein, when an adhesive force between the first connection member and the release film of each of the two adjacent sheet pieces is represented by A, an adhesive force between the release film of each of the two adjacent sheet pieces and the adhesive layer is represented by B, and an adhesive force between the second connection member and the surface protection film of each of the two adjacent sheet pieces is represented by C, C is equal to or larger than A, and A is larger than B.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first connection member is attached to the first end portions of the plurality of sheet pieces parallel to the longitudinal direction of the pre-processing optical film.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein an attachment velocity of attaching the connection member to the sheet piece is 2.0 to 8.0 m/min.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

winding the post-processing optical film into a roll,

wherein in the winding, a winding tension applied to the post-processing optical film is in a range of 100 to 200 N/m.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first connection member is an adhesive tape.

9. The method of claim 3 , wherein each of the first connection member and the second connection member is an adhesive tape.
