  • Patent number: 6733863
    Abstract: Described is an optical-use adhesive film that includes a base film of a biaxially oriented polyester film and an adhesive polymer layer laminated on at least one surface of the base film. The optical-use adhesive film has a light transmission equal to or greater than 90% and an increase in haze value after the optical-use adhesive film receives a heat treatment at 150° C. for 120 min. equal to or less than 0.5%.

  • Patent number: 6458467
    Abstract: An optical-use adhesive film comprises a base film of the optical-use adhesive film is a biaxially oriented polyester film having a thickness equal to or more than 50 &mgr;m, and an adhesive polymer layer laminated on at least one surface of the base film. Refractive indexes of the base film in longitudinal and transverse directions are both in the range of from 1.55 to 1.70 and refractive indexes of the adhesive layer and the base film satisfies the following formula (1): (Nx−Nc)2+(Ny−Nc)2≦0.0300  (1), wherein Nx and Ny respectively indicate refractive indexes in longitudinal and transverse directions of a base film and Nc is a refractive index of an adhesive layer.

  • Patent number: 4098860
    Abstract: A process for preparing a biaxially stretched film of polyamide blend, which comprises (1) extruding a polyamide blend in melt to make an unstretched film and (2) stretching the unstretched film first in a machine direction with a stretch speed of about 40,000 to 60,000,000 %/minute in a draw ratio of about 2 to 6 and then in a transverse direction with a stretch speed of about 500 to 100,000 %/minute in a draw ratio of about 2 to 6, or (2') stretching the unstretched film first to make a uniaxially stretched film having a plane orientation index of about 0.6 to 1.

  • Patent number: 4009312
    Abstract: A heat-adhesive film laminate comprising a film of a plastic material having excellent heat resistance such as polyesters, polyamides or polycarbonates laminated on one side of a metal foil such as aluminum foil, copper foil, iron foil or the like and a film of a resin comprising predominantly block copolyester having a melting point of higher than 140.degree. C but lower than the temperature at which the characteristics of the plastic film is deteriorated and a Young's modulus .epsilon. (dyne/cm.sup.2) and a breaking elongation (.DELTA.l/lo) .times. 100 (%) when measured at 20.degree. C and 100.degree. C being as follows, respectively:10.sup.7 (dyne/cm.sup.2) < .epsilon. < 10.sup.10 (dyne/cm.sup.2) and(.DELTA.l/lo) .times. 100 > 40 (%)laminated on other side of the metal foil.
