Retardation film, polarizing plate and liquid crystal display
The retardation film contains a cellulose ester, has a film thickness of 15 to less than 40 μm, has a film thickness variation both in the widthwise direction and lengthwise direction of 0 to 4 μm, and satisfies an Rt humidity fluctuation of 1% to 12%:(a difference of retardation Rt (590) values in the thickness direction represented by the following formula (ii) measured at a wavelength of 590 nm after the film has been left to stand for 5 hours in each of a 23° C., 20% relative humidity environment and a 23° C., 80% relative humidity environment)/(Rt (590) value measured after the film has been left to stand for 5 hours in a 23° C., 55% relative humidity environment)×100Rt(590)={(nx+ny)/2−nz}×d  Formula (ii)wherein nx: a refractive index in the slow axis direction in the film plane, ny: a refractive index in the direction perpendicular to the slow axis in the film plane, nz: a refractive index in the thickness direction of the film, and d: a film thickness.
