Abstract

Disclosed herein is an anti-reflective film comprising: a hard coating layer; and a low-refractive layer containing a binder resin and hollow inorganic nanoparticles and solid inorganic nanoparticles which are dispersed in the binder resin, wherein a ratio of an average particle diameter of the solid inorganic nanoparticles to an average particle diameter of the hollow inorganic nanoparticles is 0.26 to 0.55, and wherein at least 70 vol % of the entire solid inorganic nanoparticles are present within a distance corresponding to 50% of an entire thickness of the low-refractive layer from the interface between the hard coating layer and the low-refractive layer, and an anti-reflective film comprising: a hard coating layer containing a binder resin containing a photocurable resin, and organic or inorganic fine particles dispersed in the binder resin; and a low-refractive layer containing a binder resin and hollow inorganic nanoparticles and solid inorganic nanoparticles which are dispersed in the binder resin, wherein a ratio of an average particle diameter of the solid inorganic nanoparticles to an average particle diameter of the hollow inorganic nanoparticles is 0.15 to 0.55, and wherein at least 70 vol % of the entire solid inorganic nanoparticles are present within a distance corresponding to 50% of an entire thickness of the low-refractive layer from the interface between the hard coating layer and the low-refractive layer.

Claims (21)

1. An anti-reflective film comprising: a hard coating layer; and a low-refractive layer containing a binder resin and hollow inorganic nanoparticles and solid inorganic nanoparticles which are dispersed in the binder resin,

wherein a ratio of an average particle diameter of the solid inorganic nanoparticles to an average particle diameter of the hollow inorganic nanoparticles is 0.26 to 0.55,

wherein the low-refractive layer includes a first layer containing at least 70 vol % of the entire solid inorganic nanoparticles and a second layer containing at least 70 vol % of the entire hollow inorganic nanoparticles,

wherein the anti-reflective film comprises an interface between the hard coating layer and the low-refractive layer, and

wherein the first layer and the second layer are sequentially positioned from the interface.

2. The anti-reflective film of claim 1 , wherein:

the average particle diameter of the hollow inorganic nanoparticles is in a range of 40 nm to 100 nm.

3. The anti-reflective film of claim 1 , wherein:

the average particle diameter of the solid inorganic nanoparticles is in a range of 1 nm to 30 nm.

4. The anti-reflective film of claim 1 , wherein:

the binder resin contained in the low-refractive layer contains a cross-linked (co)polymer between a (co)polymer of a photopolymerizable compound and a fluorine-containing compound including a photoreactive functional group.

5. The anti-reflective film of claim 4 , wherein:

the low-refractive layer contains 10 to 400 parts by weight of the hollow inorganic nanoparticles and 10 to 400 parts by weight of the solid inorganic nanoparticles, based on 100 parts by weight of the (co)polymer of the photopolymerizable compound.

6. The anti-reflective film according claim 1 ,

wherein the hard coating layer contains a binder resin containing a photocurable resin, and organic or inorganic fine particles dispersed in the binder resin.

7. The anti-reflective film according claim 6 ,

wherein the organic fine particles have a particle diameter of 1 to 10 μm, and the inorganic fine particles have a particle diameter of 1 nm to 500 nm.

8. The anti-reflective film according claim 1 ,

wherein the low-refractive layer includes the hollow inorganic nanoparticles in a higher amount by weight than the solid inorganic nanoparticles.

9. The anti-reflective film according claim 1 ,

wherein the film has a reflectance of 0.70% or less in a wavelength region from 380 nm to 780 nm.
