Abstract

The present specification relates to a method for manufacturing a polarizer and a polarizer manufactured by using the same, and more particularly, to a method for manufacturing a polarizer, which includes a cross-linking and elongating step using an aqueous solution including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound and a boric acid compound, and a polarizer manufactured by using the same.

Claims (19)

1. A polarizing plate comprising a polarizer and a protection film attached to at least one surface of the polarizer by using an adhesive layer,

wherein the polarizer is manufactured by performing cross-linking and elongating steps including first cross-linking and elongating step and second cross-linking and elongating step with a first aqueous solution and a second aqueous solution respectively, each of which independently including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound and a boron compound,

wherein the cross-linking and elongating steps do not include a step using an aqueous solution containing only the boron compound as a cross-linking agent, and

wherein a relative dimensional variation ratio (Z/Z 0 ) satisfies the following Equation (3) after evaluating durability under a condition where the polarizing plate is left at any one temperature selected from 60° C. to 70° C. for 48 hours and then left at any one temperature selected from 20° C. to 30° C. for 24 hours:

0<| Z/Z 0 |<0.85  Equation (3):

in Equation (3),

Z is a dimensional variation ratio of the polarizing plate including the above said polarizer,

Z 0 is a dimensional variation ratio of the polarizing plate including the polarizer obtained by performing both the first and second cross-linking and elongating steps by using the aqueous solution including the boron compound but not including the polyvalent carboxylic acid compound, and

in Z and Z 0 , contents of the boron compounds in the aqueous solutions are the same as each other.

2. A polarizing plate comprising a polarizer and a protection film attached to at least one surface of the polarizer by using an adhesive layer,

wherein the polarizer is manufactured by performing cross-linking and elongating steps including first cross-linking and elongating step and second cross-linking and elongating step with a first aqueous solution and a second aqueous solution respectively, each of which independently including a polyvalent carboxylic acid compound and a boron compound,

wherein the cross-linking and elongating steps do not include a step using an aqueous solution containing only the boron compound as a cross-linking agent,

wherein the protection film is an acryl-based film, and the adhesive layer includes a cured material of an adhesive composition including an epoxy monomer or an acrylate-based monomer and a photopolymerization initiator and has a thickness of 2 μm to 4 μm, and

wherein a relative dimensional variation ratio (Z/Z 0 ) satisfies the following Equation (3) after evaluating durability under a condition where the polarizing plate is left at any one temperature selected from 60° C. to 70° C. for 48 hours and then left at a temperature of any one selected from 20° C. to 30° C. for 24 hours:

0<| Z/Z 0 |<0.85  Equation (3):

in Equation (3),

Z is a dimensional variation ratio of the polarizing plate including the above said polarizer,

Z 0 is a dimensional variation ratio of the polarizing plate including the polarizer obtained by performing both the first and second cross-linking and elongating steps by using the aqueous solution including the boron compound but not including the polyvalent carboxylic acid compound, and

in Z and Z 0 , contents of the boron compounds in the aqueous solutions are the same as each other.
