Publication number: 20080220214Abstract: [Purpose] To provide a light regulating film and a laminated light regulating film with relatively large crazes or cracks, capable of controlling optical properties such as transmissivity and scattering to a high degree, as well as a method for producing a light regulating film and a method for producing a laminated light regulating film. [Constitution] Linear notch patterns at fixed intervals are formed by contacting blades 6a on a drum 6 with a film F and mechanically transferring the shape of the blades 6a to the film F. The notch pattern is formed to be approximately parallel to the axial direction of the drum 6. When a flexural stress is applied in the direction of the film F transport by passing the film over the bending roll 8 while applying a predetermined tension thereto, crazes or cracks are formed inside the notch patterns, with the notches in the notch patterns serving as starting points thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2008Publication date: September 11, 2008Applicant: Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshihiro Uozu, Jun Nakauchi, Masatoshi Toda, Tetsuya Sawano, Hiroki Hatayama
