Abstract: A film for a liquid crystal display. The film is a cellulose ester film with a thickness between 20 and 65 &mgr;m and containing fine particles. The average diameter of fine particles is 0.005 to 3.0 &mgr;m. The number of fine particles per 1,000 &mgr;m2 is 5 to 500 in the cross-section perpendicular to the cellulose ester film in a region of a depth of not more than 10 &mgr;m.

Abstract: A cellulose ester film comprises (a) an ultraviolet absorbent polymer having at least one of repeating units represented by formulae (1) and (2) and repeating units having ultraviolet absorbent structures represented by formulae (3), (4) and (5), (b) an ultraviolet absorbent polymer which is a copolymer of a repeating unit represented by the following formula (6), (7) or (19) with a monomer unit derived from another ethylenically unsaturated monomer, (c) an ultraviolet absorbent polymer which is a copolymer of a monomer represented by formula (8) with a monomer represented by formula (9), or (d) modified cellulose in which an ultraviolet absorbent structure bonds directly or through a spacer to a hydroxy group of cellulose or its derivative.

Abstract: A cellulose triacetate film characterized in being comprised of cellulose triacetate which is prepared by employing cotton liter as the raw material, having a value of weight average molecular weight Mw/number average molecular weight Mn of 3.5 to 4.5, or being comprised of cellulose triacetate which is prepared by employing wood pulp as the raw material, having a value of weight average molecular weight Mw/number average molecular weight Mn of 4.0 to 5.0.

Abstract: A protective film of a polarizing plate is disclosed which is made of a resin film containing a UV absorbent and has a change in linear dimensions of -0.06 to 0.06%.

Abstract: A protective film for use with a polarizing plate has a support carrying a glare-proof layer. The glare-proof layer is a resin with coarse particles having an average particle size of 0.25 to 10 .mu.m, and fine particles having an average particle size of 0.1 .mu.m or less and a refractive index of 1.40 to 1.60, embedded in it.

Abstract: A protective film for a polarizing plate comprises a resin film, and provided thereon, a layer comprising a polyol acrylate resin.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium and a manufacturing process thereof are disclosed. The medium comprises a magnetic layer containing a binder, chromium oxide having an average particle size within the range of 0.3 to 0.5 .mu.m and a metal magnetic powder, wherein the binder comprises a polyurethane resin having a polar group selected from the group consisting of --SO.sub.3 M, --OSO.sub.3 M, --COOM, --PO (OM), and --OPO(OM).sub.2 wherein M represents a hydrogen atom or an alkali metal.

Abstract: A silver halide photographic light-sensitive material which comprises a backing layer containing inorganic particles is disclosed. The photographic material is exelent in curl-balance suitable for transporting during the processing with automatic processing machine. The photographic material may also comprise a magnetic recording layer on the backing layer so that it is allowed to use as magnetic recording.
