Patent ID: 8153246

Claim:
An optical compensatory film comprising an optically anisotropic layer composed of a liquid crystal composition, wherein the liquid crystal composition comprises a liquid crystal compound, and at least one type of fluoroaliphatic group-containing copolymer including a repeating unit derived from a fluoroaliphatic group-containing monomer represented by the following formula [1] and a repeating unit derived from a monomer represented by the following formula [2]: wherein R 0 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or an alkyl group, L represents a divalent linking group, and n represents an integer in the range of 1-18; wherein R 11 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or an alkyl group, L 11 represents a divalent linking group, and R 13 , R 14 and R 15 each independently represents a straight-chain, branched or cyclic hydrocarbon group having 1-20 carbon atoms or an aromatic heterocyclic group, which may have a substituent.
