## Abstract

The object is to obtain an optical reflective film having both productivity and optical characteristic which achieves a lower production cost and a larger area, and reduces unevenness in the reflectivity of visible light regions. An optical reflective film including at least one unit in which a high refractive index layer and a low refractive index layer are alternately laminated on a film support, at least one of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer including a water-soluble polymer and a metal oxide particle, wherein a mixed region of the nigh refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer is formed between the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer by a simultaneous multilayer coating of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer, and the optical reflective film has at least one region in visible light wavelength regions and 30% or more and 100% or less of a mean reflectivity thereof.

## Claims

### Claim 1

An optical reflective film comprising:
at least one unit in which a high refractive index layer and a low refractive index layer are alternately laminated on a film support, at least one of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer including a water-soluble polymer and a metal oxide particle, wherein
a mixed region of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer is formed between the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer by a simultaneous multilayer coating of the high refractive index layer and the low refractive index layer, and the optical reflective film has at least one region in visible light wavelength regions and 30% or more and 100% or less of a mean reflectivity thereof.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)
