Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is an interlayer film for laminated glass with which distortion in the appearance of the laminated glass can be significantly suppressed. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to the present invention has one end, and the other end being at the opposite side of the one end, the other end has a thickness that is larger than a thickness of the one end, the interlayer film as a whole has a wedge angle of 0.1 mrad or more, and the following absolute value A in all sections A located every 150 mm in the following measurement of partial wedge angles is 0.4 mrad or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An interlayer film for laminated glass having one end, and the other end being at an opposite side of the one end, the other end having a thickness that is larger than a thickness of the one end, the interlayer film as a whole having a wedge angle of 0.1 mrad or more, an absolute value A in all sections A located every 150 mm in a measurement of partial wedge angles being 0.06 mrad or more and 0.4 mrad or less, the measurement of partial wedge angles including measuring partial wedge angles of the interlayer film by steps 1 to 4 in this order, the step 1 of selecting points A at 2-mm intervals starting at a position of 20 cm from the one end toward the other end of the interlayer film as a starting point and ending at a position of 20 cm from the other end toward the one end of the interlayer film as an ending point, the step 2 of calculating a partial wedge angle A in each partial region A of 40 mm centered at each of the points A in a direction connecting the one end and the other end, the step 3 of setting sections A every 150 mm from the starting point toward the ending point, the step 4 of, in each section A, selecting a maximum value and a minimum value of all partial wedge angles A in partial regions A where the points A exist in the section A, and determining the absolute value A of difference between the maximum value and the minimum value, the interlayer film containing a combination of (1) polyvinyl acetal resin consisting of polyvinyl acetal resin (X) that is obtained by acetalizing polyvinyl alcohol with an aldehyde, the aldehyde consisting of at least one of propionaldehyde, n-butyraldehyde, and isobutyraldehyde, and (2) plasticizer consisting of at least one of triethylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate and triethylene glycol di-2-ethylbutyrate, the interlayer film having a region where the thickness increases from the one end side to the other end side, the interlayer film having a portion where an increment of the thickness increases from the one end side to the other end side in the region where the thickness increases from the one end side to the other end side, or having a portion where an increment of the thickness decreases from the one end side to the other end side in the region. where the thickness increases from the one end side to the other end side. 2. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the interlayer film is an interlayer film for laminated glass for use in a laminated glass that is a head-up display, and has a region for display corresponding to a display region of the head-up display. 3. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , comprising: a first layer; and a second layer arranged on a first surface side of the first layer. 4. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 3 , wherein the first layer contains a polyvinyl acetal resin, the second layer contains a polyvinyl acetal resin, and a content of a hydroxyl group of the polyvinyl acetal resin in the first layer is lower than a content of a hydroxyl group of the polyvinyl acetal resin in the second layer. 5. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 3 , wherein the first layer contains a polyvinyl acetal resin, the second layer contains a polyvinyl acetal resin, the first layer contains a plasticizer, the second layer contains a plasticizer, and a content of the plasticizer in the first layer relative to 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl acetal resin in the first layer is larger than a content of the plasticizer in the second layer relative to 100 parts by weight of the polyvinyl acetal resin in the second layer. 6. A laminated glass comprising: a first lamination glass member; a second lamination glass member; and the interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , the interlayer film for laminated glass being arranged between the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member. 7. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the polyvinyl acetal resin in the interlayer film consists of polyvinyl butyl resin (X1) that is obtained by acetalizing polyvinyl alcohol with an aldehyde, the aldehyde consisting of at least one of n-butyraldehyde and isobutyraldehyde. 8. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the polyvinyl acetal resin in the interlayer film consists of polyvinyl butyral resin (X2) that is obtained by acetalizing polyvinyl alcohol with an aldehyde, the aldehyde consisting of n-butyraldehyde. 9. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the plasticizer in the interlayer film consists of triethylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate. 10. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of platinum particles, platinum particles coated with silica, palladium particles, and palladium particles coated with silica. 11. The interlayer film for laminated glass according to claim 1 , comprising a metal oxide having a surface coating comprising at least one selected from the group consisting of an insulating metal oxide, a hydrolyzable organosilicon compound, and a silicone compound.
