ABSTRACT:
Contrast enhancement filter having first and second transparent glass substrates with first and second surfaces with the first surface of each facing the medium in which the filter is disposed. A sheet-like circular polarizer is provided formed of stretched plastic members covered by layers of cellulose acetate butyrate. The circular polarizer is disposed between the first and second glass substrates and faces the second surfaces of the glass substrates. A dried plastisol primer layer is disposed on the surface of the layers of cellulose acetate butyrate facing the glass substrates. First and second layers of polyvinyl butyral adhesive secure the layers of cellulose acetate butyrate carried by the circular polarizer with the primer layers thereon to the second surfaces of the glass substrates. An anti-reflection coating is disposed on the first surface of the first substrate.
A method for manufacturing a contrast enhancement filter which comprises the steps of providing a sheet-like circular polarizer formed of stretched plastic members and having outer layers of cellulose acetate butyrate. A thin film of optical clear plastisol primer is applied on the outer surfaces of the cellulose acetate butyrate layers of the circular polarizer. The primer is then dried. A transparent substrate is provided with first and second surfaces. A layer of a polyvinyl butyral adhesive is then applied to the second surface of the first glass substrate. The circular polarizer with its primer layer thereon is placed on the layer of polyvinyl butyral adhesive. Another layer of polyvinyl butyral adhesive is then placed on the other side of the circular polarizer. A second glass substrate having first and second surfaces with the second surface facing the polyvinyl butyral adhesive is placed in the sandwich. The various parts in the sandwich are then secured into a temporary unitary assembly. Air is evacuated from between the parts and the layers. Heat and pressure is applied to the assembly to cause the parts to be permanently bonded into a unitary assembly.
