Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an optical laminate or a reddening-resistant layer. The present disclosure can provide an optical laminate that does not cause a so-called reddening phenomenon even when driven or maintained under extremely harsh conditions (e.g., very high temperature conditions), or a reddening-resistant layer applied thereto.

Claims (44)

1. An optical laminate, comprising:

a polarizing layer comprising zinc component; and

a reddening-resistant layer formed on at least one side of the polarizing layer,

wherein the reddening-resistant layer is a void-containing layer or a laminate comprising the void-containing layer and the void-containing layer has a thickness of 400 nm or more,

wherein the reddening-resistant layer has an average reflectance in a wavelength region of 800 to 1300 of 2% or more,

wherein the void-containing layer comprises a binder and hollow particles, and

wherein the hollow particles have a D10 particle diameter of 25 to 50 nm. a D50 particle diameter of 50 to 95 nm and a D90 particle diameter of 100 nm to 200 nm in a weight cumulative curve of particle size distribution.

2. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the polarizing layer is an iodine-based polarizing layer.

3. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the polarizing layer satisfies Equation 3:

0.70 to 0.97=1/(1+0.025 d/R )  [Equation 3]

wherein d is a thickness (μm) of the polarizing layer, and R is a ratio (K/Zn) of a weight ratio (K, unit: weight %) of potassium component in the polarizing layer with respect to a weight ratio (Zn, unit: weight %) of zinc component in the polarizing layer.

4. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer satisfies Equation 4:

H L ≤0.9× H P   [Equation 4]

wherein H L is a thermal diffusivity of a laminate of a polymer film and the reddening-resistant layer formed on one side of the polymer film, and H P is the thermal diffusivity of the polymer film.

5. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer comprises a surface having a surface area ratio of 0.02 or more as measured by an atomic force microscope.

6. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer exhibits at least one peak within a scattering vector range of 0.06 to 0.209 nm −1 in a log value graph of scattering intensity of small angle X-ray scattering.

7. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein an A value satisfying Equation 6 of the reddening-resistant layer is 1.5 or less, a B value satisfying Equation 6 of the reddening-resistant layer is from 0 to 0.01 and a C value satisfying Equation 6 of the reddening-resistant layer is from 0 to 0.001:

wherein n(λ) is the refractive index of the reddening-resistant layer at a wavelength of λ, and λ is any one wavelength in a range of 300 to 1800 nm.

8. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the binder comprises a polymer derived from a polyfunctional acrylate having 2 to 10 polymerizable functional groups.

9. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the void-containing layer does not comprise solid particles.

10. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer does not form a surface of an outermost layer of the optical laminate.

11. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , further comprising an additional layer, wherein the reddening-resistant layer is disposed between the additional layer and the polarizing layer.

12. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the distance between the reddening-resistant layer and the polarizing layer 90 μm or less.
