  • Publication number: 20150165733
    Abstract: Described is a method for producing a laminate having a micro concave-convex structural body and a film, wherein the body has, at its surface, a micro concave-convex structure having a period less than a wavelength of visible light, the water contact angle of the surface is 120° or greater, and the film contains a film substrate and a film resin layer to protect the surface. A curable resin composition is disposed as the film resin layer between a side surface of the micro concave-convex structure and the film substrate. The micro concave-convex structural body and the film substrate are bonded via the curable resin composition. The curable resin composition is cured to obtain a cured product thereof. The compressive elastic modulus of the cured product is 30 MPa or greater, and is less than that of a cured product of the material constituting the micro concave-convex structure.
