A protective film 10 of the present invention includes a base material layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive layer, and is used by being attached to a resin substrate 21 at the time of performing heat bending on the resin substrate 21. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer contains a polyolefin having a melting point of lower than 125° C. The base material layer has a first layer which contains a polyolefin having a melting point of 150° C. or higher, and a second layer which contains an adhesive resin. In a case of heating the protective film 100 having such a configuration, in a state of being interposed between two attaching substrates which are formed of polycarbonate, at 145° C. for 30 minutes, peeling off one attaching substrate on the side of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer at 25° C., and then viewing a surface of the one attaching substrate in a plan view, a residual ratio of an area where the pressure sensitive adhesive layer remains is 5% or less.

Disclosed herein are a two-component polyurethane adhesive and a dual cure polyurethane-based adhesive for use in laminated films. The adhesives are particularly useful for producing photochromic and clear-to-polarized laminates for ophthalmic lens applications.

A window transfer method and a window manufacturing method using a window transfer method are provided. A window transfer method includes preparing a stage, transferring the stage over a loading part on which a window layer is loaded, transferring the stage to be adjacent to an upper surface of the window layer and to allow a plurality of protrusion parts attached to side surfaces of the stage to press a slip sheet layer arranged under the window layer and exposed outside the window layer, and suctioning the window layer to a lower surface of the stage to separate the window layer from the slip sheet layer.

Optical film stacks are described. More particularly, optical film stacks including a half-wave retardation layer are described. Achromatic half-wave retardation layers, including achromatic half-wave layers formed from a quarter-wave and a three-quarters-wave retardation layer, are described. Film stacks including reflective polarizers tuned to reduce wavelength dispersion of the half-wave retardation layer are also described.

Methods for manufacturing a multilayer composite display cover include stacking a plurality of composite layers, each comprising an ultra-thin glass sheet covered in a polymer layer. After a cover glass sheet is placed on an exposed polymer layer, the composite layers may be bonded together. A ceramic coating may be applied to the external surfaces to increase hardness.

The present invention provides a new member having a low refractive index as a substitute for an air layer, for example. The laminated film roll of the present invention includes a long laminated film roll including: an ultra-low refractive index layer having a refractive index of 1.20 or less; and a resin film, wherein the ultra-low refractive index layer is stacked on the resin film. The method of forming the long laminated film roll of the present invention includes steps of: preparing a liquid containing microporous particles; coating a resin film with the liquid; and drying the liquid applied on the resin film, for example.
