Abstract

A touch panel ( 20 ) is attached, via a reflection-prevention layer ( 31 ) or an adhesive layer, to the polarizing plate ( 2 ) side of a display device ( 10 ) having the polarizing plate ( 2 ) laminated upon a display panel ( 1 ). The polarizing plate ( 2 ) has: a polarizer ( 3 ); and a film ( 4 ) having a film thickness of no more than 35 μm and laminated on the touch panel ( 20 ) side of the polarizer ( 3 ). The contact angle for the surface of the touch panel ( 20 ) side in the film is less than 60°.

Claims (18)

1. A display device with a touch panel, the display device having a polarization plate display panel, in which the touch panel is fitted through an anti-reflection layer or an adhesive agent layer to the display device, on a side of the polarization plate, where the polarization plate is stacked in layers on the display panel,

wherein the polarization plate includes a polarizer and a first film which is stacked in layers on the polarizer on a side of the touch panel and whose film thickness is equal to or less than 35 μm, and

a contact angle on a surface of the first film on the side of the touch panel is less than 60°.

2. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein the film thickness of the first film is equal to or less than 33 μm, and the contact angle on the first film is equal to or less than 55°.

3. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein the film thickness of the first film is equal to or less than 28 μm, and the contact angle on the first film is equal to or less than 55°.

4. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein a front layer of the first film on the side of the touch panel is an acrylic resin layer, and

the acrylic resin layer is formed with a coating composition which includes a multifunctional acrylic, a urethane prepolymer and a reactive silica particle.

5. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first film includes cellulose.

6. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first film include: an ester compound having a structure obtained by reaction of phthalic acid, adipic acid and at least one type of benzene monocarboxylic acid with at least one type of alkylene glycol having 2 to 12 carbon atoms; and a cellulose triacetate having an acetyl group substitution degree of 2.80 to 2.95 and a number average molecular weight equal to or more than 125000 but less than 155000.

7. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first film is a hard coat film in which a hard coat layer is stacked in layers on a film base member.

8. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 1 , wherein the polarization plate further includes a second film on a side of the display panel.

9. The display device with a touch panel according to claim 8 , wherein each of the first film and the second film include thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin.
