Abstract
The present invention provides a light transmitting hard coat film for use in touch panels, which comprises: (A) a light transmitting hard coat layer composed of a cured product of an ionizing-radiation-curable compound; (B) a high refractive index layer composed of a cured product of an ionizing-radiation-curable compound and containing antimony-doped tin oxide plus zirconium oxide and/or titanium oxide, as metal oxides, which has a refractive index in the range of 1.65 to 1.90 and a thickness of 30 to 160 nm; and (C) a low refractive index layer composed of a cured product of a siloxane-based curable compound which has a refractive index in the range of 1.40 to 1.55 and a thickness of 10 to 50 nm, all the layers being laminated on one side of a light transmitting base film in this order. The light transmitting hard coat film for use in touch panels has a high light transmittance and can produce transmitted light of blue color.
