Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An iodine-based polarizer includes a polyvinyl alcohol-based film; and iodine adsorbed and oriented in the polyvinyl alcohol-based film, the iodine-based polarizer having be undergone a treatment with a treatment bath containing at least one reducing agent, the iodine-based polarizer containing an oxidized form of the reducing agent, wherein the total content of the reducing agent and the oxidized form is from 0.06×10−6 mol/g to 1.6×10−6 mol/g. The iodine-based polarizer has a sufficiently high level of transmittance, degree of polarization, and other optical properties and can suppress light leakage in short-wavelength.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An iodine-based polarizer, comprising: a polyvinyl alcohol-based film; and iodine adsorbed and oriented in the polyvinyl alcohol-based film, the iodine-based polarizer having be undergone a treatment with a treatment bath containing at least one reducing agent, the iodine-based polarizer containing an oxidized form of the reducing agent, wherein the total content of the reducing agent and the oxidized form is from 0.06×10 −6 mol/g to 1.6×10 −6 mol/g. 2. The iodine-based polarizer according to claim 1 , wherein the reducing agent comprises at least one of ascorbic acid, erythorbic acid, thiosulfuric acid, sulfurous acid, and salts thereof. 3. A polarizing plate, comprising: the iodine-based polarizer according to claim 1 ; and a transparent protective film provided on at least one side of the iodine-based polarizer. 4. An optical film, comprising the iodine-based polarizer according to claim 1 . 5. An image display device, comprising the iodine-based polarizer according to claim 1 . 6. An optical film, comprising the polarizing plate according to claim 3 . 7. An image display device, comprising the polarizing plate according to claim 3 . 8. An image display device, comprising the optical film according to claim 4 .
