Regioselectively substituted cellulose esters having a plurality of pivaloyl substituents and a plurality of aryl-acyl substituents are disclosed along with methods for making the same. Such cellulose esters may be suitable for use in films, such as +A optical films, and/or +C optical films. Optical films prepared employing such cellulose esters have a variety of commercial applications, such as, for example, as compensation films in liquid crystal displays and/or waveplates in creating circular polarized light used in 3-D technology.

An adhesive film, an optical member including the same, and an optical display including the same are provided. An adhesive film includes a (meth)acrylic copolymer including a hydroxyl group and formed of a monomer mixture including a hydroxyl group-containing (meth)acrylate and an alkyl group-containing (meth)acrylate. The adhesive film has a glass transition temperature of about −35° C. or less and allows about 50,000 cycles or more of bending before delamination between the adhesive film and a PET film, cracking, or bubble generation occurs in a specimen as described herein.

The present invention relates to an optical film that comprises a block copolymer that comprises a vinyl polymer block containing styrene or a derivative thereof, and a poly-dimethylsiloxane block, a retardation film using the same, a method of manufacturing them, and a liquid crystal display comprising the films.
