We have been developing retardation‐controlled polypropylene‐based films with additives. We propose new optical films having Re value (in‐plane retardation) around 100nm, or less 20nm. These films show high durability as optical properties under certain conditions. The low Re value film can be used for protection films of LCD's polarizer, and the high Re value one can be used for retardation films of VA and other modes of LCD.
