Abstract

An optical laminate that does not cause a 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 (41)

1. An optical laminate, comprising:

an optical functional layer; and

a reddening-resistant layer formed on at least one surface of the optical functional layer,

wherein an average surface reflectance of the optical laminate at light having a wavelength of from 380 nm to 780 nm is 2% or more.

2. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the optical functional layer is a polarizing layer or a retardation layer.

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

4. 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.

5. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer has a reflectance of 2% or more at light having a wavelength of 800 nm to 1300 nm.

6. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer is a void-containing layer or a layer comprising the void-containing layer.

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

8. The optical laminate according to claim 6 , wherein a refractive index of the reddening-resistant layer satisfied Equation 6:

wherein, n(λ) is the refractive index of the reddening-resistant layer at a wavelength of λ, λ is a wavelength in a range of 300 nm to 1800 nm, A is 1.5 or less, B value is from 0 to 0.01 and C is from 0 to 0.001.

9. The optical laminate according to claim 6 , wherein the void-containing layer comprises a binder and hollow particles.

10. The optical laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the binder comprises a polymer derived from a polyfunctional acrylate having 2 to 10 polymerizable functional groups.

11. The optical laminate according to claim 9 , wherein the hollow particles have a D10 particle diameter of 25 nm to 50 nm, a D50 particle diameter of 50 nm to 95 nm and a D90 particle diameter of 100 nm to 200 nm in a weight cumulative curve of particle size distribution.

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

13. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein the reddening-resistant layer has a thickness of 200 nm or more.

14. 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.

15. The optical laminate according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between the reddening-resistant layer and the optical functional layer is 90 μm or less.
