  • Patent number: 9296162
    Abstract: The present invention solves glare of an embossed matte film of a conventional product produced and sold by the applicant of the present application, and provides a light diffusion film and the like having a surface shape of an irregular pattern that significantly suppresses the glare even when an LED light source is used and also maintains the good optical characteristics. The following is believed sufficient for maintaining good optical characteristics of an embossed matte film and also for solving the glare. To maintain the optical characteristics, the surface shape was defined by use of an inclination angle histogram profile of an embossed surface. In order to solve the glare, the size of unit patterns which make up an entire pattern and do not cause glare was defined by use of the value of the average length RSm of the roughness curve element of the embossed surface.

  • Publication number: 20160054473
    Abstract: The optical sheet according to the present invention includes a first layer containing a polycarbonate resin and a second layer containing an amorphous polyamide resin, the first layer and the second layer being layered by coextrusion molding. The first layer and the second layer are peelable from each other; and a surface of at least one of the first layer and the second layer has a fine uneven shape formed thereat. Such an optical sheet including a plurality of layers can make the entirety sheet thick at the time of melt extrusion molding, and therefore the layered body during the molding can hold a sufficient amount of heat. This improves the transferability of the fine uneven structure. In addition, the layers may be peeled off so that one of the layers is used. In this case, the optical sheet can be made thinner.
