Abstract: A resin film with pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the invention includes a first transparent resin film, an oligomer blocking layer, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer laminated in this order, wherein the oligomer blocking layer is a cured layer formed by curing a composition containing a curable compound and inorganic oxide particles, the oligomer blocking layer has a thickness of 120 nm or more, the oligomer blocking layer has a refractive index difference of 0.04 or less from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and an anchoring strength between the oligomer blocking layer and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is 1 N/25 mm or more. The resin film with pressure-sensitive adhesive layer can prevents the oligomer blocking layer from causing interference fringes, in which even when made thin, the oligomer blocking layer satisfies the requirements including oligomer blocking properties and scratch resistance, and also has good adhesion to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.

Abstract: A process including (1) applying a solution composition to one or both sides of a first transparent resin film to form a coating layer or layers, wherein the solution composition contains an active energy ray-curable compound, a photopolymerization initiator, and a solvent, wherein the photopolymerization initiator has a 10% weight loss temperature of 170° C. or more as measured by a loss-on-heating test; (2) removing, after the coating step (1), a solvent from the coating layer or layers by drying under such temperature conditions that the first laminated film obtained has a thermal shrinkage of 0.5% or less when heated at 150° C. for 1 hour, and (3) curing the coating layer or layers after the heat-treating step (2). A second laminated film produced with the first laminated film makes it possible to suppress curling and to prevent oligomer precipitation.
