Antiglare film, manufacturing method thereof, and transmissive liquid crystal display

A method for manufacturing an antiglare film, the method comprising:

• preparing a transparent substrate;
• forming a coating film by applying, on the transparent substrate, a coating liquid for forming an antiglare layer, the coating liquid including a binder matrix forming material, which is curable by ionizing radiation, and acrylic-styrene copolymer particles;
• and curing the binder matrix forming material with ionizing radiation to form the antiglare layer;
• wherein a quotient RA/H is within a range of 0.30 to 0.80, the quotient RA/H being obtained by dividing the average diameter RA of the acrylic-styrene copolymer particles by the average thickness H of the antiglare layer, and a product |nA−nM|×wA×H is within a range of 0.70 to 3.00, the product |nA−nM|×wA×H being the product of:
• the absolute value |nA−nM| obtained by subtracting the average refractive index nM of the binder matrix from the refractive index nA of the acrylic-styrene copolymer particles;
• the content wA of the acrylic-styrene copolymer particles when the content wM of the binder matrix in the antiglare layer is 100 parts by weight;
• and the average thickness H of the antiglare layer.
