Effects of Affinity of Solvents on the Haze of Anti-Glare Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the study we evaluated the effects of the solvents of the coatings and the process temperature on the haze of anti-glare (AG) films. We used the single solvent with different polarity or the mixture of two solvents to prepare the AG coatings on the same composition ratio of polystyrene microbeads to pentaerythritol triacrylate. Experimental results revealed that the haze value increased with the decrease of polarity of solvents, and the haze values of the AG films prepared at elevated temperature led to higher haze values. We speculate the results arose from the affinity of solvents to LSPs.
