  • Patent number: 6798487
    Abstract: A liquid crystal cell substrate having a polarizing function is disclosed which can be extremely thin and lightweight and is excellent in heat resistance, impact resistance and quality stability. The liquid crystal cell substrate comprises a resin substrate and, closely adhered thereon, at least a gas barrier layer, a crosslinked resin layer and a polarizing layer, wherein the polarizing layer comprises a coating layer. This cell substrate, having a polarizing function and high durability, can be efficiently produced because an exceedingly thin polarizing layer having excellent heat resistance can be deposited on a resin substrate by coating and because a gas barrier layer and a crosslinked resin layer also can be easily formed. It is excellent in moisture resistance, gas resistance and impact resistance, can be extremely thin and lightweight, and has excellent heat resistance.
