Description

EXAMPLES

[0201] Hereinafter, working examples of the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to embodiments of the working examples.

<Measurement of Glass Transition Point (Tg) and Melting Point>

[0202] Using a differential scanning calorimeter DSC7020 manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation, the glass transition point of each of the polycarbonate resins and high hardness resins used in the Examples and Comparative Examples and the melting point of each of the protective films were measured at a temperature raising rate of 10° C./min under nitrogen atmosphere. The weight of each resin used in the measurement was 10 to 20 mg.

<Measurement of Pencil Hardness of Resin Sheet>

[0203] Each of the resin sheets produced in the Examples and Comparative Examples was evaluated by the pencil scratch hardness test in accordance with JIS K 5600-5-4. The highest hardness of the pencil, with which the surface of the hard coat anti-glare layer was not damaged when the pencil was pressed against the surface at an angle of 45° with respect to the surface with a load of 750 g, while increasing the hardness thereof, was evaluated as the pencil hardness. The hardness of 2H or harder was evaluated as acceptable.

<Production of Molded Article Having Curved Shape and Evaluation of Crack of Hard Coat after Molding>

[0204] The resin sheets produced in the Examples and Comparative Examples were subjected to thermoforming. Regarding Examples 1-3 and 5-15 and Comparative Examples 1-6 and 8-11, molds for hot pressing with a clearance (gap between an upper mold and a lower mold for sandwiching a sheet for molding) of 2 mm and a molding R of 50 mm were used, and regarding Example 4 and Comparative Example 7, molds for hot pressing with a clearance of 3.5 mm and a molding R of 100 mm were used. The pressure applied to the molds for hot pressing was 0.6 MPa. The material of the molds was aluminum. The mold temperature at the time of thermoforming was 124° C. in Examples 1-5, 7-11 and 13-15 and Comparative Examples 1-4, 9 and 10, and 143° C. in Examples 6 and 12 and Comparative Examples 5-8 and 11.

[0205] Regarding the obtained molded articles, the presence or absence of a crack in the 50 mm R portion or 100 mm R portion was confirmed. Note that when a resin sheet in which the total thickness of the base material layer and the high hardness resin layer is 0.5 mm, 1.2 mm or 1.5 mm was formed using the molds for hot pressing with the clearance of 2 mm, a single-layer polycarbonate sheet of 1.5 mm, 0.8 mm or 0.5 mm was laid under it to adjust the total thickness to be 2 mm, thereby performing hot press molding.

<Flow Mark>

[0206] Regarding each layered body of the high hardness resin layer and the polycarbonate resin layer before hard-coated produced in the Examples and Comparative Examples, outer appearance thereof was visually examined under a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp to confirm the presence or absence of a scaly pattern and white turbidity. The case where none of scaly pattern and white turbidity was observed was evaluated as “flow mark is absent”, and the case where a scaly pattern or white turbidity was observed was evaluated as “flow mark is present”.

<Measurement of In-Plane Retardation>

[0207] The retardation of each resin sheet or resin film was measured by using a birefringence evaluation apparatus WPA-200-L manufactured by Photonic Lattice, Inc. The wavelength for the measurement was 543 nm. Since the measurement of a retardation range of higher than 3500 nm cannot be carried out with a standard lens attached to the apparatus, a high phase difference measurement lens K4 FUJINON 1:1.4/16 mm HF16HA-1B was used.

[0304] It is understood that the resin sheet of the present invention has excellent hardness, does not have any flow mark, and does not have any abnormal appearance such as a crack after thermoforming.

[0305] The several embodiments of the present invention were described above, but these embodiments were presented as examples and it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention thereby. These novel embodiments can be practiced in other various modes and can be omitted, substituted or modified variously without departing from the gist of the present invention. These embodiments and modifications thereof are included in the scope or gist of the invention and also included in the scope of the inventions recited in the claims and equivalents thereof.
