Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an anti-glare, anti-reflection film of which various characteristics such as anti-reflection, contamination resistance, scratch-resistance and transmission image sharpness, among which anti-reflection is particularly important, are consistent with a sufficiently high anti-glare property when the film is loaded in image display devices, in particular, a high-resolution liquid crystal display device, and which can be produced entirely by wet coating processes at a low manufacturing cost, and further provide a liquid crystal display excelling in image contrast, image visibility and image sharpness. The object is achieved by an anti-glare, anti-reflection film made of a low refractive index layer provided on a transparent support, and an anti-glare layer arranged between the transparent support and the low refractive index layer, the surface energy of the anti-glare layer being 25 mN·m−1 to 70 mN·m−1.

Abstract: An antiglare film is described, which comprises a triacetyl cellulose transparent support having provided thereon one or more hard coat layers including an antiglare hard coat layer, wherein the hard coat layer contiguous to the triacetyl cellulose transparent support is formed from a coating solution comprising solvents comprising one or more solvents which dissolve the triacetyl cellulose support and one or more solvents which do not dissolve the triacetyl cellulose support. A method for producing the antiglare film, a polarizer wherein the antiglare film is used and a liquid crystal display wherein the antiglare film or the polarizer is used are also described.
