Abstract

PURPOSE:To raise a high airtight property and a resistant to a high temperature and a high humidity by sealing the outside circumference of a substrate by plural sealing layers, and enclosing a liquid crystal into an air-gap part between plural sealing layers. CONSTITUTION:In the inside of the outside circumference sealing layer 5, another sealing layer 6 is provided along the outside circumference sealing layer 5, and a liquid crystal 4' is enclosed into an air-gap part of the sealind layers 5, 6, too. By only forming the sealing part by a double structure, invasion preventing effect of impurities and a preventive effect of leakage of the liquid crystal are improved, and also an invasion of an air foam can also be prevent- ed since no air exists in the air-gap part. As for a substrate 1, a plastic film is desirable, and as for an adhesive agent for the sealing layers 5, 6, a silicon compound adhesive agent is desirable in respect of an adhesive property, a resistance to a liquid crystal, and a screen printing property to a polyester substrate.

A liquid crystal display element has a structure in which a liquid crystal substance is sealed between two transparent upper and lower substrates each having a predetermined electrode pattern. Conventionally, glass has been used, and the outer periphery of the glass has been bonded with an epoxy adhesive or low-melting glass solder via a spacer. However, glass is easily damaged, so recently, substrates using flexible plastic films such as polyethylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, and polysulfone have been developed, which have improved impact resistance compared to conventional glass substrates. The advantages include ease of displaying 21 curved surfaces and low cost. Second
Figures (a) and (b) show an example of a liquid crystal display element using this plastic substrate, that is, a plastic substrate 1a,
Transparent conductive films 2a, 2a' are formed in a predetermined electrode shape on la' by a method such as photolithography, and then an alignment agent is applied, and alignment films 3a, 3a' are applied, followed by rubbing. The outer peripheries of the substrates 1a and Ia' are bonded together via an adhesive layer 5a made of epoxy resin, acrylic resin, silicone resin, etc., the internal space is filled with liquid crystal 4a, and the liquid crystal injection port is sealed. has been done. However, in the liquid crystal display element configured as described above, when an inflexible adhesive such as an epoxy adhesive is used as the adhesive layer 5a, the adhesive layer and the substrate may not be bonded, or even if bonded, the adhesive layer and the substrate may not be bonded. Because of the large difference in elastic modulus, it is easy to peel off when the display element is bent and used, or when bending stress is applied during the manufacturing process, and therefore liquid crystal leakage and impurities from the outside are likely to occur. On the other hand, if a flexible adhesive such as urethane or acrylic is used, it may not stick, or it may not stick even if it is bonded. ′+ The gas permeability and water vapor permeability of the agent itself,
Since the liquid crystal is highly transparent, it is easy for impurities to enter from the outside and liquid crystal leakage occurs, and the components of the adhesive and impurities may have an adverse effect on the liquid crystal and its alignment. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 1983
JP-A-178221 discloses the use of a reaction-curable polymer having a siloxane bond (hereinafter referred to as a silicone adhesive) as a sealing adhesive. This silicone adhesive has good AT properties in terms of adhesive strength and impact on liquid crystals and alignment films, but it is not sufficient in terms of reliability, especially high 1111'L retention. I couldn't say it.

Even when a soft adhesive is used, infiltration of impurities, gases, etc. from the outside is prevented, and leakage of liquid crystal from inside the hill is also reduced. Second, in the case of the present invention, since the liquid crystal 4' is filled in the gap formed between the seal layer 5 and the seal WJ6, the seal part is closed as described above. The effect of preventing infiltration of impurities and gases from the outside and the effect of preventing liquid crystal leakage from inside the cell are -.
It becomes a higher level. Furthermore, if liquid crystal is not sealed between the sealing layers 5 and 6, the seal WI5 can be sealed by heating.
In some cases, the air existing in the gap between the seal layers 5 and 6 expands and enters the inside of the seal, but in the case of the present invention, since liquid crystal is filled between the seal layers 5 and 6, this does not occur. No inconvenience will occur.

Example 1 A transparent conductive film was formed on a uniaxially stretched polyester film.
- After forming a predetermined electrode by lithography, an alignment film made of organic titanium 1-, epoxy, and nylon is formed and rubbed. On this substrate, a silicone adhesive 5E-1700 manufactured by Toshi Silicone Co., Ltd. was screen printed in the shape shown in FIG. A substrate that has been similarly subjected to orientation treatment,
The substrate was bonded to the substrate through a polymer particle spacer with a particle size of 10 μm so that the orientation axes were perpendicular to each other, and the mixture was heated at 150° C.
By heating for 1 hour, an empty cell having the structure shown in FIG. 1 was produced. Next, in step 1, Merck's automotive liquid crystal ZLI-1565 was sealed in both the display cell part and the seal layer cavity by a vacuum sealing method, and the sealing opening was sealed by ultrasonic welding to form a twisted nematic type. A liquid crystal display element was manufactured. This liquid crystal display element did not show any visual appearance defects such as alignment deterioration in a high temperature storage test at 60°C for 1000 hours, and exhibited electrical properties (optical properties) such as threshold voltage, contrast I/last ratio, current consumption, and response acceleration. 1, initial value fluctuation ±
It showed an extremely high temperature within 20%. An even more severe temperature of 80° (2, 11°101 with a relative humidity of 9%) was shown.
.. Even in the 1X high humidity test, 11 visual appearance defects occurred for more than 500 hours.
It showed extremely high reliability with an initial variation of 11 degrees within 20%.
