Abstract

La présente invention concerne un film à retard contenant une couche comprenant une composition de résine contenant de 30 à 95 % en masse d'un polymère (méth)acrylique présentant une structure annulaire au niveau de la chaîne principale, et de 5 à 70 % en masse d'un polymère d'ester cellulosique. Le film à retard a une faible perméabilité à l'humidité et un faible coefficient photoélastique, ainsi qu'un degré de liberté élevé pour contrôler la dispersion de longueur d'onde de retard ; le film, par exemple, présente une dispersion de longueur d'onde inverse de retard, ou bien a une dispersion de longueur d'onde de retard plate. Le film à retard s'avère approprié aux applications de composition optique dans un dispositif d'affichage d'image tel qu'un dispositif d'affichage à cristaux liquides (LCD).
