Description

Composition for forming a hard coat layer, hard coat layer, polarizing plate and image display device The present disclosure relates to a composition for forming a hard coat layer, a hard coat layer, a polarizing plate, and an image display device. As described in Patent Document 1, it is known that a phenomenon called reddening occurs when a polarizing plate is placed under a high-temperature environment. Reddening is a phenomenon in which the polarizing plate appears red when cross-Nicole is placed, as the transmittance on the long wavelength side of about 700 nm increases. Figure 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a polarizing plate. FIG. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of an image display device. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail. Composition for forming a hard coat layer The composition for forming a hard coat layer according to the present embodiment is a curable composition comprising a monomer component (a), a radical polymerization initiator, and a polymer (X) having an epoxy group. Monomer component (a) contains a monomer (a-1) having two or more (meth)acryloyl groups. According to the inventors' knowledge, reddening of the polarizing plate occurs when ammonia gas intruding from the outside comes into contact with the polarizer. Since the composition for forming a hard coat layer of the present embodiment includes a polymer (X) having epoxy groups, epoxy groups (or derivatives thereof) derived from the polymer (X) are present in the cured product. Therefore, according to the composition for forming a hard coat layer of the present embodiment, a hard coat layer having epoxy groups (or derivatives thereof) is formed, and the hard coat layer traps ammonia gas, thereby preventing the intrusion of ammonia gas into the polarizer and suppressing reddening of the polarizing plate. In addition, since the composition for forming a hard coat layer of the present embodiment contains monomer (a-1) as a monomer component, the hardness of the cured product is increased, and a hard coat layer having sufficient hardness can be formed. For this reason, the hard coat layer formed by the composition for forming a hard coat layer of the present embodiment can be easily introduced into a polarizing plate by substitution with the hard coat layer of the existing polarizing plate, or by addition to the resin layer of the existing polarizing plate. The monomer component (a) may be a compound having, for example, a (meth)acryloyl group or a polymerizable group capable of polymerizing with a (meth)acryloyl group (for example, an ethylenically unsaturated double bond), and a compound having a (meth)acryloyl group is preferred. The monomer component (a) contains a monomer (a-1) having two or more (meth)acryloyl groups. Monomer (a-1) may be a compound having two (meth)acryloyl groups (hereinafter also referred to as monomer (a-1-2)) or a compound having three or more (meth)acryloyl groups (hereinafter also referred to as monomer (a-1-1)). The number of (meth)acryloyl groups in monomer (a-1) and monomer (a-1-1) may be, for example, 10 or less, 8 or less, 6 or less, or 4 or less. Monomer (a-1) may be a cyclic monomer having a cyclic structure or an acyclic monomer not having a cyclic structure, but it is preferable that it be an acyclic monomer. If monomer (a-1) is an acyclic monomer, ester bonds can be more densely present in the polymer formed, and the ammonia blockability of the hard coat layer tends to be further improved. Monomer (a-1) is preferably composed of a high proportion of monomer (a-1-1) from the perspective that it is easier to obtain a hard coat layer with higher hardness. The proportion of monomer (a-1-1) in monomer (a-1) (i.e., the content of monomer (a-1-1) based on the total amount of monomer (a-1)) may be, for example, 50 mass% or more, 70 mass% or more, 80 mass% or more, or 85 mass% or more. Additionally, the proportion of monomer (a-1-1) in monomer (a-1) (i.e., the content of monomer (a-1-1) based on the total amount of monomer (a-1)) may be, for example, 100 mass% or less, 97 mass% or less, 95 mass% or less, or 90 mass% or less. Among monomers (a-1), compounds having three or more (meth)acryloyl groups (monomer (a-1-1)) include, for example, pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, EO-modified pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, PO-modified pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tri(meth)acrylate, trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate, EO-modified trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate, PO-modified trimethylolpropane tri(meth)acrylate, trimethylolethane tri(meth)acrylate, ditrimethylolpropane tetra(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol penta(meth)acrylate. Examples include dipentaerythritol hexa(meth)acrylate and glycerin tri(meth)acrylate. As monomer (a-1-1), pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, EO-modified pentaerythritol tetra(meth)acrylate, PO-modified penta
