Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A long obliquely-stretched film wound into a roll shape includes a thermoplastic resin and has an orientation angle oriented in a direction inclined with respect to a widthwise direction thereof. In a longitudinal direction of the long obliquely-stretched film, an angle defined between the orientation angle and the widthwise direction has a longitudinal cycle length of 10 mm to less than 1500 mm. An amplitude of the angle is in the range of 0.2° to 1.0° in the longitudinal cycle length.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A long obliquely-stretched film wound into a roll shape, comprising a thermoplastic resin and having an orientation angle oriented in a direction inclined with respect to a widthwise direction thereof, wherein, in a longitudinal direction of the long obliquely-stretched film, an angle defined between the orientation angle and the widthwise direction has a longitudinal cycle length of 10 mm to less than 1500 mm, and wherein an amplitude of the angle is in the range of 0.2° to 1.0° in the longitudinal cycle length. 2. The long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 , which has a longitudinal length of 1000 m or more. 3. The long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 , which has a film thickness of 10 to 80 μm. 4. The long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 , which has a widthwise length of 500 mm or more. 5. The long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 , wherein a long film comprises a thermoplastic resin and has a photo-elastic coefficient of 1.0×10 −11 to 1.0×10 −10 (Pa −1 ). 6. The long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 , wherein the thermoplastic resin is a polycarbonate-based resin. 7. A circularly polarizing plate which is produced using the long obliquely-stretched film as defined in claim 1 . 8. An organic EL display which is produced using the circularly polarizing plate as defined in claim 7 .
