Abstract

A composite optical film is provided. The composite optical film sequentially includes a substrate, a light diffusion layer, and a light-gathering layer. The light diffusion layer includes a binder and plural micro beads dispersed therein. The thickness of the light diffusion layer is 2-6 times of the average diameter of the micro beads, and the distance between adjacent micro beads is smaller than the average diameter of the micro beads. The light-gathering layer has plural light-gathering micro structures.

Claims (16)

1. A composite optical film, comprising:

a substrate;

a light diffusion layer disposed on the substrate and comprising a plurality of micro beads and a binder, wherein a thickness of the light diffusion layer is 2-6 times of an average diameter of the micro beads, a distance between adjacent micro beads is smaller than the average diameter of the micro beads, and a coating amount of the light diffusion layer is about 2.7 g/cm 2 -20 g/cm 2 ; and

a light-gathering layer disposed on the light diffusion layer and comprising a plurality of light-gathering micro structures.

2. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein the average diameter of the micro beads is 1-50 μm.

3. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein the average diameter of the micro beads is 3-20 μm.

4. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein a refractive index of the micro beads is smaller than a refractive index of the light-gathering layer and a difference between the refractive index of the micro beads and the refractive index of the light-gathering layer is 0.02-0.4.

5. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein the micro beads relative to a solid content of the binder is about 80 to about 210 parts by weight of the micro beads per 100 parts by weight of the solid content of the binder.

6. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein a material of the micro beads is plastic, metal oxide, or glass.

7. The composite optical film of claim 6 , wherein the plastic is acrylic resin, styrene resin, urethane resin, silicone resin, or any combinations thereof.

8. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein a material of the light-gathering layer comprises UV curable resin.

9. The composite optical film of claim 8 , wherein the UV curable resin is (meth)acrylate resin, urethane acrylate resin, polyester acrylate resin, epoxy acrylate resin, or any combinations thereof.

10. The composite optical film of claim 1 , wherein a shape of the light-gathering micro structures is a columnar structure, a conical structure, a solid angular structure, an orange petaline block structure, a lens-shaped structure, a capsular structure, or any combinations thereof.

11. The composite optical film of claim 10 , wherein the columnar structure is a prism columnar structure, an arc columnar structure, or a mixture thereof.

12. The composite optical film of claim 10 , wherein the columnar structure is a prism columnar structure having an apical angle of 40°-120°.

13. The composite optical film of claim 1 , further comprising a scratch-resistant layer disposed on a bottom of the substrate.
