Abstract
The present invention provides a laminate optical body, which is excellent in production efficiency, shows an extremely small axis shift and can realize a liquid crystal display apparatus showing small display unevenness. The laminate optical body of the present invention includes an elongated polarizing film having an absorption axis in a short direction thereof, and including a base material layer and a hydrophilic polymer layer to which a dichromatic substance adsorbs; and an elongated retardation film having a slow axis in a lengthwise direction thereof. The polarizing film is a laminate including the base material layer and the hydrophilic polymer layer to which a dichromatic substance adsorbs. The laminate optical body is elongated. Preferably, the hydrophilic polymer layer has a thickness of 1 μm to 10 μm.

14. A method of producing an elongated laminate optical body, comprising:
-
applying a composition containing a hydrophilic polymer to an elongated base material to form a thin film; stretching the thin film together with the base material; dyeing the stretched thin film to provide an elongated polarizing film including a base material layer and a hydrophilic polymer layer; and continuously attaching the polarizing film and an elongated retardation film to each other while aligning lengthwise directions of the films. - View Dependent Claims (15)
