The present invention provides a surface treatment film that is capable of imparting durability such as wear resistance, friction resistance, chemical resistance, heat resistance, and solvent resistance to the surfaces of various substrates, and that exhibits excellent adhesion to the surfaces of the substrates. The surface treatment film is provided on the surface of a substrate. The surface treatment film has a laminated structure that includes a polymer layer (i) disposed on the surface side of the substrate and a polymer layer (ii) disposed on the polymer layer (i). The polymer layer (i) contains a first polymer derived from a polymerization initiation group-containing polymer, such as a polyester having, in a side chain, a functional group represented by formula (1) wherein Rrepresents a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or the like, Rrepresents a methyl group or the like, X represents a chlorine atom or the like, Y represents O or NH, and * shows a bonding position. The polymer layer (ii) contains a second polymer which contains a constituent unit derived from a monomer such as an aromatic vinyl-based monomer and which extends using the functional group represented by formula (i) as a polymerization initiation point.

The present invention provides a pigment dispersant that exhibits high fine dispersibility, stability, and fluidity in a small amount, a pigment dispersion liquid including the pigment dispersant, and a process of producing the pigment dispersant and pigment dispersion liquid. The pigment dispersant contains as a main component, a graft copolymer formed through living radical polymerization using two or more monomers including a methacrylate A having an acidic group or a basic group and a methacrylate-based macromonomer B having a methacrylate residue at one terminal of a particular polymer chain that has a molecular weight of from 500 to 5000. A ratio of a total molar number of the methacrylate-based monomers relative to 1 mol of a polymerization-initiating compound in the raw material monomers is from 20 to 50 mol. A ratio of the B component-derived polymer chain to the graft copolymer is from 50 to 90 mass %.
