Disclosed is a gas barrier film comprising a substrate film, an organic layer and an inorganic layer provided directly on the surface of the organic layer, wherein the organic layer laid under the inorganic layer has a thickness of from 0.3 &#x3bc;m to 10 &#x3bc;m; the organic layer laid under the inorganic layer has a hardness, measured by the nanoindentation, of 0.03 to 0.5 GPa; and the organic layer laid under the inorganic layer, assumed to have a thickness 'a', and the inorganic layer on the organic layer, assumed to have a thickness 'b', satisfying a relation of a/b&#x3e;10. The gas barrier film is excellent in the barrier performance, adhesiveness, bending resistance and scratch resistance.

Gas barrier film and device

A method for counteracting the curling tendency of a gas barrier film having a tendency to curl up with a support side thereof facing inside, comprising (1) heating the gas barrier film from the support side thereof to thereby control the support temperature to fall between Tg and Tg+40&#xb0; C., and (2) conveying the film in the roller circumferential direction within one second after the temperature of the support has reached Tg, while a part of the gas barrier layer of the gas barrier film is kept in contact with a film surface center part noncontact roller wherein Tg means the glass transition temperature of the support.
