Abstract

The embodiments relate to a polyamide-based composite film that not only has excellent curl characteristics, mechanical properties, and optical properties, but also exhibits a privacy protection effect at a wide angle of view and glossiness characteristics similar to those glass at a main angle of view, and to a display device comprising the same. There are provided a polyamide-based composite film that comprises a base film comprising a polyamide-based polymer; and a functional layer disposed on the base film, wherein a glossiness control value according to Equation 1 is 0 or more, and a displace device comprising the same.

Claims (24)

1. A polyamide-based composite film, which comprises a base film comprising a polyamide-based polymer; and a functional layer disposed on the base film, and which has an average glossiness (GL AVG ) of 90 to 130, which is an average value of the glossiness at 20° (GL 20 ), a glossiness at 60° (GL 60 ), and the glossiness at 85° (GL 85 ), wherein the glossiness at 60° (GL 60 ) is glossiness measured according to the JIS Z 8741-1997 standard with the polyamide-based composite film at an incident angle of 60°,

wherein a glossiness control value of the polyamide-based composite film according to the following Equation 1 is 0 or more:

Glossiness control value=glossiness at 85°(GL 85 )−glossiness at 20°(GL 20 )  [Equation 1]

wherein, in Equation 1, the glossiness at 85° (GL 85 ) is glossiness measured according to the JIS Z 8741-1997 standard with the polyamide-based composite film at an incident angle of and the glossiness at 20° (GL 20 ) is glossiness measured according to the JIS Z 8741-1997 standard with the polyamide-based composite film at an incident angle of 20°.

2. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein the glossiness at 20° (GL 20 ) is 80 to 120, and the glossiness at 85° (GL 85 ) is 90 to 117.

3. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein a surface hardness of one side of the functional layer positioned opposite to the side in contact with the base film is 5H or higher.

4. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein a surface roughness (Ra) of one side of the functional layer positioned opposite to the side in contact with the base film is 0.06 μm or lower.

5. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein the base film further comprises a matting agent.

6. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 5 , wherein the matting agent is at least one selected from the group consisting of silica, poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(butyl methacrylate), polystyrene, melamine, silicone, barium sulfate, and glass.

7. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 5 , wherein the content of the matting agent is 100 to 3,000 ppm based on the total weight of the polyamide-based polymer.

8. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein the polyamide-based polymer comprises a repeat unit represented by the following Formula A and a repeat unit represented by the following Formula B at a molar ratio of 0:100 to 50:50:

wherein E and J are each independently selected from a substituted or unsubstituted divalent C 6 -C 30 aliphatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted divalent C 4 -C 30 heteroaliphatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted divalent C 6 -C 30 aromatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted divalent C 4 -C 30 heteroaromatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 -C 30 alkylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 -C 30 alkenylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 -C 30 alkynylene group, —O—, —S—, —C(═O)—, —CH(OH)—, —S(═O) 2 —, —Si(CH 3 ) 2 —, —C(CH 3 ) 2 —, and —C(CF 3 ) 2 —,

G is a group selected from a substituted or unsubstituted tetravalent C 6 -C 30 aliphatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted tetravalent C 4 -C 30 heteroaliphatic cyclic group, a substituted or unsubstituted tetravalent C 6 -C 30 aromatic cyclic group, or a substituted or unsubstituted tetravalent C 4 -C 30 heteroaromatic cyclic group, wherein the aliphatic cyclic group, the heteroaliphatic cyclic group, the aromatic cyclic group, or the heteroaromatic cyclic group is present alone, is fused to each other to form a condensed ring, or is bonded by a bonding group selected from a substituted or unsubstituted C 1 -C 30 alkylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 -C 30 alkenylene group, a substituted or unsubstituted C 2 -C 30 alkynylene group, —O—, —S—, —C(═O)—, —CH(OH)—, —S(═O) 2 —, —Si(CH 3 ) 2 —, —C(CH 3 ) 2 —, and —C(CF 3 ) 2 —.

9. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , wherein the functional layer further comprises a filler, the content of the filler is 50,000 ppm to 400,000 ppm based on the total weight of the functional layer, and the filler has an average particle diameter of 5 nm to 100 nm.

10. The polyamide-based composite film of claim 1 , which has a haze of 1% or less, and a transmittance of 80% or more.

11. A display device, which comprises a display unit; and a polyamide-based composite film disposed on the display unit,

wherein the polyamide-based composite film comprises a base film comprising a polyamide-based polymer; and a functional layer disposed on the base film,
