- the polarizing plate is useful as one of the optical components constituting the liquid crystal display device. As the liquid crystal display device is expanded in its use and more precise, defects of the polarizing plate are caused by defects of the liquid crystal display device, and thus it is required to reduce defects of the polarizing plate by inspecting the defects of the polarizing plate.
- an inspection target polarizing plate to be inspected is placed on the inspection polarizing plate in a state of cross nicol, that is, a state in which their polarization axis directions are orthogonal to irradiate light from a light source, and the screen of transmitted light is visually or cameras. It is carried out by the method of observing by.
- the release film used in the lower part of the polarizing plate to be inspected mostly uses an anisotropic film. At this time, the phase difference is generated and the optical axis is shifted, which affects the dark state of cross nicol. There is a problem in that it should be limited to an anisotropic release film having an axial angle of 8 ° or less, for example, because it may not be possible to affect the cross inspection.
- the center portion is low anisotropy, the anisotropy increases toward the side. That is, the amount of the anisotropic film that falls within the standard is very limited and therefore inevitably expensive, which is a factor that increases the manufacturing cost of the polarizing plate. Moreover, since the release film is finally peeled off and discarded, it is very wasteful to discuss anisotropic specifications.

- the anisotropic release film was used to cut about 1300mm (0 ⁇ 1300mm section, 2700 ⁇ 4000mm section) from both ends in the film of the full width 4000mm.
- the image and the brightness (gray) of the anisotropic release film inspected by the cross nicol method using the polarizing plate inspection apparatus according to the present invention are shown in Table 2 below.
- the phase difference compensation film of the polarizing plate inspection apparatus was cut out and used the same product (Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings) as an anisotropic release film.
- An anisotropic release film having an angle of an orientation angle of + 11 ° was inspected by a cross nicol method using the polarizing plate inspection apparatus according to the present invention, and the image and brightness (gray) inspected without including a phase difference compensation film in the polarizing plate inspection apparatus. ) Is shown in Table 1 below.
- the anisotropic release film After measuring the angles of the orientation angles of one end and the other end of the anisotropic release film, it was recorded on the barcode and attached to the anisotropic release film. Thereafter, the anisotropic release film is inspected by the cross nicol method using the polarizing plate inspection apparatus according to the present invention, but the image and the brightness (gray) inspected in the state of not including the phase difference compensation film in the polarizing plate inspection apparatus are shown in Table 2 below. Indicated.
- the brightness is 30 gray level, it was possible to implement cross nicol stable, polarizing plate inspection apparatus according to the present invention If not used, the average brightness is 230 gray or more, it can be seen that the polarizing plate inspection is not possible through the cross nicol method.
- the brightness is 30 gray level, stable cross nicol implementation was possible, but the polarizing plate inspection according to the present invention If the device is not used, the average brightness is 230 gray or more, it can be seen that the polarizing plate inspection is not possible through the cross nicol method.
- test polarizer 31 protective film

Abstract
Un procédé d'inspection d'une plaque polarisante selon la présente invention comprend les étapes de : (a) préparation d'une plaque polarisante devant être inspectée ayant un film de libération anisotrope sur une partie inférieure d'un polariseur devant être inspecté ; (b) positionnement d'une plaque polarisante sur le côté d'un dispositif d'inspection, ayant un film de compensation de retard sur une partie supérieure du polariseur sur le côté du dispositif d'inspection, au-dessous de la plaque polarisante devant être inspectée ; (c) mesure de la luminosité par un procédé Nicol croisé lorsque la lumière traverse la plaque polarisante devant être inspectée et la plaque polarisante sur le côté du dispositif d'inspection tout en déplaçant le film de compensation de retard sur l'axe y, l'axe z étant la direction de déplacement de la lumière, l'axe x étant la direction dans laquelle la plaque polarisante devant être inspectée se déplace sur un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe z, et l'axe y est sur un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe z et perpendiculaire à l'axe x ; (d) stockage de la luminosité correspondant à une position sur l'axe y du film de compensation de retard ; (e) le déplacement du film de compensation de retard vers une position d'axe y correspondant à la luminosité à au plus 5 % de la luminosité la plus faible parmi la luminosité stockée dans l'étape (d) ; et (f) inspection de la plaque polarisante devant être inspectée par le procédé Nicol croisé.
