A film for optical applications which effectively prevents reflection of
light on the surface of image display devices such as PDP, CRT and LCD,
exhibits excellent scratch resistance and transmission of light, provides
excellent adhesion between layers and can be produced at a low cost is
disclosed. The film comprises (A) a high refractivity hard coat layer
(the refractive index: 1.60 to 1.75, the thickness: 2 to 20 .mu.m)
comprising (a) an antimony-doped tin oxide having a needle shape (the
average particle diameter along the major axis: 0.05 to 10 .mu.m, the
average aspect ratio: 3 to 100), (b) at least one other metal oxide and
(c) a material cured with an ionizing radiation and (B) a low
refractivity layer (the refractive index: 1.30 to 1.45, the thickness: 40
to 200 nm), which are successively laminated at least on one face of a
substrate film.
