Description

액정표시소자 컬럼 스페이서용 레지스트 조성물{Resist Composition For Column Spacer of LCD}Resist Composition For Column Spacer of LCD

본 발명은 액정표시소자의 컬럼 스페이서용 레지스트 조성물에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 액정표시소자의 컬럼 스페이서 형성시 적절한 두께로 패턴 형성이 가능하고 평탄성, 해상성, 잔막률 및 패턴 안정성이 우수한 레지스트 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a resist composition for a column spacer of a liquid crystal display device, and more particularly to a resist composition capable of forming a pattern with an appropriate thickness when forming a column spacer of a liquid crystal display device and having excellent flatness, resolution, residual film ratio, and pattern stability. It is about.

통상적으로 액정표시소자(LCD)는 2장의 마주보는 상하 패널과, 패널 사이에 삽입되는 스페이서 및 액정으로 구성되는데, 스페이서는 액정층의 두께, 즉 패널 사이의 간격인 셀갭을 유지시키는 기능을 한다. 셀갭이 일정하게 유지되어야만 고속 응답성, 높은 콘트라스트성, 광시야 각도성 등의 액정표시소자 성능이 구현될 수 있다.Typically, a liquid crystal display (LCD) is composed of two opposing top and bottom panels, a spacer inserted between the panels and a liquid crystal, and the spacer functions to maintain a cell gap, that is, the thickness of the liquid crystal layer, that is, the gap between the panels. Only when the cell gap is kept constant can the performance of liquid crystal display devices such as high-speed response, high contrast, and wide viewing angle be implemented.

현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 스페이서 형성 방법으로는 셀갭보다 직경이 조금 더 큰 투명한 구형 또는 실린더형의 폴리메틸메타크릴레이트나 실리카 입자를 분산, 도포하는 방법이 이용되고 있다. 이러한 방법은 액정을 주입할 때 구형이나 실린더형 입자가 부분적으로 응집하는 현상이 발생될 뿐만 아니라 액정 패널의 이동이나 진동, 충격 등에 의해 입자의 위치가 이동하여 균일한 분산이 이루어지지 않으므로 셀갭의 편차가 발생하여 일정한 셀갭이 유지되기 어렵다. 이에 따라, 액정층의 두께가 불균일하게 되어 액정표시소자의 색상이 변화하고 화상이 뒤틀리는 문제점이 발생한다. 또한, 배향막에 스크래치를 생성시켜 배향막을 손상시킬 수 있으며 상하 패널 기판을 압착 봉지할 때 전극이 손상 받을 가능성도 있다. 이러한 문제점들은 TFT LCD 등의 액정표시소자들의 대형화 추세에 따라, 또는 휴대전화, 호출기 등의 정보 단말기나 이동형 통신기, 차량용 운항 시스템 등에 대한 용도가 증대됨에 따라 더욱 심각해진다.The most widely used spacer formation method is a method of dispersing and applying transparent spherical or cylindrical polymethyl methacrylate or silica particles which are slightly larger in diameter than the cell gap. This method not only partially aggregates spherical or cylindrical particles when injecting liquid crystals, but also disperses cell gaps because the particles are not uniformly dispersed due to movement, vibration, or impact of the liquid crystal panel. Occurs, so that a constant cell gap is difficult to be maintained. Accordingly, the thickness of the liquid crystal layer is uneven, so that the color of the liquid crystal display element changes and the image is distorted. In addition, the alignment film may be scratched to damage the alignment film, and the electrode may be damaged when the upper and lower panel substrates are pressed and sealed. These problems become more serious as the size of liquid crystal display devices such as TFT LCDs increases, or as the use of information terminals such as mobile phones and pagers, mobile communication devices, and vehicle navigation systems increases.

이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방법으로서 광경화성 조성물을 이용하여 고정형 컬럼 스페이서를 형성하는 방법이 제안되었다. 대한민국 공개공보 제1999-88297호에는 아크릴산과 아크릴레이트의 공중합체, 다가의 아크릴레이트 가교제 및 광개시제로 이루어진 조성물을 도포한 후 자외선을 조사하여 원하는 부분을 경화시키고 경화되지 않은 부분을 염기 수용액으로 세척하여 제거하는 방법으로 스페이서를 형성하는 방법이 개시되어 있다. 이러한 방법은 일정한 간격으로 일정한 두께를 갖는 고정된 스페이서를 형성할 수 있으므로, 외부 환경에 관계 없이 균일한 셀갭을 유지할 수 있는 장점이 있다.As a method for solving this problem, a method of forming a fixed column spacer using a photocurable composition has been proposed. Korean Laid-Open Publication No. 1999-88297 discloses a composition consisting of a copolymer of acrylic acid and acrylate, a polyvalent acrylate crosslinking agent and a photoinitiator, and then irradiates with UV rays to cure the desired portion, and to wash the uncured portion with an aqueous base solution. A method of forming a spacer as a method of removal is disclosed. This method can form a fixed spacer having a constant thickness at regular intervals, there is an advantage that can maintain a uniform cell gap regardless of the external environment.

그러나, 상기 공개특허에서 개시하고 있는 광경화성 조성물로는 액정표시장치에서 사용되는 셀갭인 3 내지 10㎛의 두께를 형성하는데 문제가 있다. 즉, 상기 조성물로는 스핀코팅 방법에 의해 3 내지 10㎛의 두께를 갖는 필름을 제조하기에 적당한 점도를 달성하기가 어려우므로, 상기 조성물을 스핀코팅하고 경화시켜 현상하는 작업을 수회 반복하여 적절한 두께를 갖는 스페이서를 형성해야 하는 번거러움이 있다. 또한, 상기 조성물은 아크릴계 수지를 주성분으로 사용하므로 경화 후 부피 수축이 발생하여 균일한 두께를 갖는 스페이서를 형성하기 어려우며, 내열성 및 패턴 안정성 또한 불량하다.However, the photocurable composition disclosed in the above-described patent has a problem in forming a thickness of 3 to 10 μm, which is a cell gap used in a liquid crystal display device. That is, since it is difficult to achieve a viscosity suitable for producing a film having a thickness of 3 to 10 μm by the spin coating method, the operation of spin coating, curing, and developing the composition is repeated several times to obtain an appropriate thickness. There is a hassle to form a spacer having a. In addition, since the composition uses an acrylic resin as a main component, volume shrinkage occurs after curing, making it difficult to form a spacer having a uniform thickness, and also having poor heat resistance and pattern stability.

따라서, 본 발명이 이루고자 하는 기술적 과제는 액정표시소자의 컬럼 스페이서 형성시 적절한 두께로 패턴 형성이 가능하고 내열성, 패턴 안정성, 평탄성, 해상성, 및 잔막률이 우수한 레지스트 조성물을 제공하는데 있다.Accordingly, an aspect of the present invention is to provide a resist composition capable of forming a pattern with an appropriate thickness when forming a column spacer of a liquid crystal display device and having excellent heat resistance, pattern stability, flatness, resolution, and residual film ratio.
