Optical function sheet on the front, in-mold decoration on the back. Achieves AR, AG, AFP, and hidden designs through integrated molding.
Even if the functions of anti-reflective (AR), anti-glare (AG), and anti-fingerprint (AFP) can be achieved using the IML method, it was structurally impossible to balance them with a high-design aesthetic that takes advantage of the depth of transparent resin. Additionally, there was a problem with the printing layer affecting the color of the LCD backlight in the HIDDEN decoration on the back side. We established a hybrid molding method that inserts an optical function sheet (AR/AG/AFP compatible IML sheet) on the surface and applies in-mold decoration on the back side. By adopting the special printing technology of a major printing manufacturer, we achieved HIDDEN decoration that does not affect the color development of the LCD. We simultaneously realize the functionality of anti-reflective, anti-glare, and anti-fingerprint with a high-design aesthetic that has depth in a single panel.
