Description

DESCRIPTION
Silane Coupling Agent, Negative-Tone Photosensitive Resin Composition, Cured
Film, and Component for Touch Panel
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001]
The present invention relates to a silane coupling agent suitable for a resin composition for forming a planarization film for a thin-film transistor (TFT) substrate in, for example, a liquid crystal display device or an organic EL display device, a protective film or an insulating film in, for example, a touch panel sensor device, and an interlayer insulating film for a semiconductor device. The present invention also relates to a negative-tone photosensitive composition using the same, a cured film formed therefrom, and a component for a touch panel having the cured film.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002]
Currently, hard coating materials find use in various applications. For example, they are used to improve surface hardness, for example, of automotive parts, containers for cosmetics and the like, sheets, films, optical disks, and flat displays.
Examples of the properties required for hard coating materials include heat resistance, weatherability, and adhesion as well as hardness and abrasion resistance.
Representative examples of hard coating materials include radical polymerizable and
UV-curable hard coating materials (see, for example, Non-patent Document 1). The constituents of the hard coating materials are a polymerizable group-containing oligomer, a monomer, a photopolymerization initiator, and other additives.
[0003]
An oligomer and a monomer are radically polymerized by UV irradiation and thus cross-linked to obtain a film with high hardness. This hard coating material requires little time for curing, and therefore the use thereof improves productivity. In addition, a negative-tone photosensitive material based on a common radical polymerization mechanism can be used, and therefore it has an advantage of reduced production cost.
[0004]
A capacitive-type touch panel, which has been receiving attention in recent years, is one application of hard coating materials. The capacitive-type touch panel has a pattern formed from an ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) film on a glass. To protect this ITO, films having high hardness are demanded. However, it is difficult to simultaneously achieve high hardness and good adhesion to ITO, and hard coating materials that overcome this problem have been demanded.
[0005]
As a method of improving adhesion, the method of adding a silane coupling agent is well known. For example, the silane coupling agent having an imide group (see Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2) has been proposed as a silane coupling agent. In these Documents, it is recommended to use a compound that has not an amic acid structure but an imide group in order to improve adherence while having good planarization properties. As a silane coupling agent suitable for heat-resistant resin precursor compositions, a compound having a carboxyl group and an ester group or a carboxyl group and an amide group (see Patent Document 3) has been proposed.
[0006]
However, none of the silane coupling agents had sufficient adhesion-improving effect when used as a hard coating agent for a touch panel.
[0007]
Further, the addition of an organic silicon compound having an amide acid structure to a polyimide resin composition (Patent Document 4) has also been proposed. However, this organic silicon compound has a structure in which an amino group-containing silane coupling agent is added to an aromatic ring-nonhydrate. This organic silicon compound is not suitable for touch panel application because of its high colorability and also provides insufficient adhesion-improving effect.

[0018]
Examples of the silane coupling agent of the present invention represented by Formula (1) include 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(isopropylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(isopropylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(isobutylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(1sobutylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(tert-pentylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(tert-pentylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(triethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid,
2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(triethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 6-(dimethoxy(methyl)silyl)-3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl) hexanoic acid, 5-(dimethoxy(methyl)silyl-2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl) pentane acid, 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) butanoic acid, 2-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-4-(2-(trimethoxysilyl)ethyl)cyclohexane carboxylic acid, 2-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-5-(2-(trimethoxysilyl)ethyl)cyclohexane carboxylic acid, and the like.
[0019]
Above all, the compound of Formula (1) above wherein n = 0 are preferred because it increases the effect of improving adhesion to ITO.
[0020]
Specifically, 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(isopropylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 3-(tert-pentylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(tert-pentylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(triethoxysilyl) hexanoic acid, 2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(triethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 6-(dimethoxy(methyl)silyl)-3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl) hexanoic acid, 5-(dimethoxy(methyl)silyl-2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl) pentane acid, 3-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-6-(trimethoxysilyl) pentane acid, 2-(2-(tert-butylamino)-2-oxoethyl)-5-(trimethoxysilyl) butanoic acid, 2-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-4-(2-(trimethoxysilyl)ethyl)cyclohexane carboxylic acid, and 2-(tert-butylcarbamoyl)-5-(2-(trimethoxysilyl)ethyl)cyclohexane carboxylic acid fall thereunder.
These silane coupling agents may be used alone or as a mixture when added to a negative-tone photosensitive resin.
[0022]
As a method of preparing these silane coupling agents, a preparation method by the reaction of a silane coupling agent containing acid anhydride and alkyl amine is preferred in terms of ease of preparation. In this case, depending on the structure of the silane coupling agent containing acid anhydride, two types of silane coupling agent of the present invention will generate at the same time. However, they can be used as a mixture without particular separation or purification. Further, although this synthesis method can possibly cause replication of, for example, a small amount of oligomers, this does not significantly affect the adherence-improving effect and need not be considered.
[0023]
The amount of addition is preferably 1 to 15% by mass and more preferably 3 to 10% by mass, based on the resin component in a negative-tone photosensitive resin composition, i.e., the total amount of (B) an alkali-soluble resin and (C) a polyfunctional acryl monomer. When the amount is less than 1% by mass, the adhesion-improving effect is not sufficient, and when more than 15% by mass, fine patterns are absent in alkaline development, which leads to decreased resolution.
[0024]
The negative-tone photosensitive resin composition using the silane coupling agent of the present invention is characterized by containing at least (A) a silane coupling agent represented by Formula (1), (B) an alkali-soluble resin, (C) a polyfunctional acryl monomer, and (D) a photo-radical polymerization initiator.
[0025]
Each component of the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition using the silane coupling agent of the present invention will now be described.
[0026]
The negative-tone photosensitive composition of the present invention contains (B) the alkali-soluble resin. By having an alkali-soluble resin, the alkali solubility (developability) of the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition will be excellent, and residue after development can be reduced to form a good pattern.
Further, by having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group, the crosslink density can be enhanced, and the hardness of a cured film can be enhanced.
[0027]
Examples of (B) the alkali-soluble resin include polysiloxanes, acrylic resins, vinyl ether resins, polyhydroxystyrenes, novolac resins, polyimides, polyamides, and the like. In (B) the alkali-soluble resin, an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group is preferably introduced into at least a portion thereof in order to increase hardness of a cured film. Among these polymers, polysiloxanes and acrylic resins are more preferred in terms of ease of introduction of an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group. Further, two or more of these polymers may be contained.
Preferred examples of (B) the alkali-soluble resin include the following, but are not limited thereto.
[0028]
As a polysiloxane, reaction products obtained by hydrolysis and condensation reaction of trifunctional alkoxysilane compounds are particularly preferred. Examples of trifunctional alkoxysilane compounds include the following.

[0030]
Further, by using a trifunctional alkoxysilane containing an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group, an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group can be readily introduced into a polysiloxane, and the hardness of a cured film can be increased, which is more preferred.
[0031]
Specific examples thereof include vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, y-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, y-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, y-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, y-acryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, and the like.
[0032]

Aromatic vinyl compounds such as styrene, p-methylstyrene, o-methylstyrene, m-methylstyrene, and a-methylstyrene may be copolymerized with the (meth)acrylic acid or (meth)acrylic acid ester described above.
[0033]
An ethylenically unsaturated double bond group can also be introduced by addition reaction of an epoxy compound having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group with (meth)acrylic acid. Examples of the epoxy compound having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group include the compounds below.
[0034]

[0035]
In the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, the content of (B) the alkali-soluble resin is not particularly restricted and can be arbitrarily selected depending on the desired film thickness and application. (B) the alkali-soluble resin is preferably added in an amount of 10 to 60% by mass based on the solid content of the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition.
[0036]

Polyfunctional monomer refers to a compound having in its molecule at least two or more ethylenically unsaturated double bonds. In view of radical polymerizability, a polyfunctional monomer having an acrylic group is preferred.
[0037]

[0050]

Two or more of them may be contained. Compounds having a boiling point of 110 to 250°C under atmospheric pressure are more preferred.
[0056]
When the boiling point is 110°C or higher, drying proceeds moderately during coating, and a good coated film without uneven coating is obtained. On the other hand, when the boiling point is 250°C or lower, the amount of residual solvents in a film can be kept small, and film shrinkage upon heat curing can be reduced furthermore; therefore better planarization properties can be obtained.

COMPANY LIMITED). Examples of commercially available products of silicone-based surfactants that are preferably used include BYK-333, BYK-301,
BYK-331, BYK-345, and BYK-307 (available from BYK-Chemie Japan).
[0064]
The representative method of preparing the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition of the present invention will be described. For example, (A) a silane coupling agent represented by Formula (1), (B) an alkali-soluble resin, (C) a polyfunctional acryl monomer, (D) a photo-radical polymerization initiator, and other additives as required are added to any solvent and dissolved by stirring, and then the solution obtained is filtered to obtain a negative-tone photosensitive resin composition.
[0065]
A method of forming a cured film using the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition of the present invention will be described by way of example.
The negative-tone photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is applied onto a base substrate by a known method such as microgravure coating, spin coating, dip coating, curtain flow coating, roll coating, spray coating, or slit coating, and pre-baked with a heating apparatus such as a hot plate or an oven. It is preferred that the pre-baking be carried out in the range of 50 to 150°C for 30 seconds to 30 minutes and that the film thickness after the pre-baking be 0.1 to 15 pm.
[0066]
After the pre-baking, exposure is performed using an exposure apparatus such as a stepper, a mirror projection mask aligner (MPA), or a parallel light mask aligner (PLA). At an exposure intensity of about 10 to 4000 J/m” (in terms of exposure at a wavelength of 365 nm), the film is irradiated with this light through or not through a desired mask. The exposure light source is not limited, and UV rays such as i-ray, g-ray, and h-ray, KrF (wavelength: 248 nm) laser, ArF (wavelength: 193 nm) laser, and the like can be used.
[0067]
Next, the exposed portion is dissolved by development to obtain a negative-tone pattern. A preferred method for development is immersion in a developing solution for 5 seconds to 10 minutes by means of, for example, showering, dipping, or puddling. As a developing solution, a known alkaline developing solution can be used. Specific examples include, for example, an aqueous solution containing one, or two or more of inorganic alkalis such as hydroxides, carbonates, phosphates, silicates, and borates of alkali metals; amines such as 2-diethylaminoethanol, monoethanolamine, and diethanolamine; and quarternary ammonium salts such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide and choline.
After the development, it is preferable to rinse with water, and then dry baking can also be carried out in the range of 50 to 150°C.
[0068]
Thereafter, this film is heated with a heating apparatus such as a hot plate or an oven in the range of 150 to 450°C for about 20 minutes to 1 hour.
[0069]
The cured film obtained by curing the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is used as a touch panel protective film, a touch panel insulating film, various hard coating materials, an antireflection film, and an optical filter. Further, it is suitably used as a planarization film for a TFT in a liquid crystal display or an organic EL display, an insulating film, and an antireflection film, an overcoat for a color filter, a column material, and the like because it has negative-tone photosensitivity. Among them, it can be suitably used particularly as a touch panel protective film and a touch panel insulating film that require adhesion to a substrate that does not have Si such as ITO and molybdenum after heat treatment and after chemical treatment. Examples of types of a touch panel include the resistive type, the optical type, the electromagnetic induction type, the capacitive type, and the like. Since a capacitive-type touch panel requires particularly high hardness, the cured film of the present invention can be suitably used therefor.
[0070]
When the cured film of the present invention is used as a protective film for a touch panel, the film, when having a thickness of 1.5 um, preferably has a hardness of 4H or more, a transmittance of 95% or more, and a resolution of not more than 20 pum. The hardness and the transmittance can be controlled by selection of exposure amount and heat-curing temperature.

[0083]
Evaluation methods in each Example/Comparative Example will be described below. (1) Measurement of Hardness
For a cured film with a film thickness of 1.5 um prepared on a 5-cm square glass substrate, the pencil hardness was measured in accordance with "JIS K5600-5-4 (1999)". The applied load was 500 g.
[0084] (2) Evaluation of Adhesion to ITO
A substrate was formed such that ITO had a film thickness of 200 Angstrom and a resistance value of 100 €/0 on an alkali-free glass substrate (glass thickness: 0.7 mm). For a cured film with a film thickness of 1.5 um formed on this substrate (hereinafter referred to as an ITO substrate), adhesion between ITO and the cured film was evaluated in accordance with JIS "K5400" 8.5.2 (1990) Cross-cut tape method. On the cured film surface on the glass substrate, vertical and horizontal 11 parallel straight lines perpendicular to each other were drawn with a cutter knife at
I-mm intervals in such a manner that the cutter knife reached the base of the glass plate to form 100 squares of 1 mm x 1 mm. A cellophane adhesive tape (width = 18 mm, adhesive strength = 3.7 N/10 mm) was applied to the cured film surface with cuts and rubbed with an eraser (meeting JIS S6050) to cause a close adhesion.
Then, the tape was picked up at one end and held perpendicular to the plate, and the number of the squares survived after instantaneous peeling was visually evaluated.
The assessment was made from the peeled area of the squares as follows: 5: Peeled area, 0% 4: Peeled area, 0 to less than 5% 3: Peeled area, 5 to 15% 2: Peeled area, 15 to 35% 1: Peeled area, 35 to 65% 0: Peeled area, 65 to 100%
[0085] (3) Resolution
A line-and-space pattern mask at a width ratio of 1:1 was used to measure the width of a mask pattern that is able to form a minimum pattern.
[0086] (4) Evaluation of Planarization Performance
For a cured film formed on a silicon wafer by the method described in (1) above, cure shrinkage from before to after the curing was calculated. When the value 1s 0 to 15%, the planarization performance can be said to be good. The cure shrinkage was calculated according to the equation below.
Cure shrinkage (%) = (1 - Film thickness of cured film obtained by curing /
Film thickness after development) x 100
When calculating cure shrinkage of a non-photosensitive resin composition, the calculation was performed by substituting "Film thickness after pre-baking" for "Film thickness after development" because a developing process is not performed.
For the film thickness measurement, Lambda Ace STM-602 (trade name, manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.) was used. The refractive index was set at 1.52 for every measured object, and film thickness after pre-baking, film thickness after development, and film thickness of a cured film obtained by curing were measured.

[0089]
Using a parallel light mask aligner (PLA-501F manufactured by Canon Inc.) and an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp as a light source, the film produced was exposed to light at an exposure amount of 200 mJ (i-ray) using 5-, 10-, 20-, 30-, 40-, and 50-pm wide masks at a width ratio of 1:1 with a mask gap of 100 pm.

Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd.), the film was developed by showering of an aqueous solution of 0.4% by mass tetramethylammonium hydroxide, ELM-D (available from
MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL COMPANY, INC.), for 90 seconds and then rinsed with water for 30 seconds. Finally, the film was cured in air at 220°C for 1 hour using an oven (IHPS-222 manufactured by ESPEC CORP.) to produce a cured film.

[0122]
To compare the difference in cure shrinkage and in planarization capability depending on the type of resin compositions to which the silane coupling agent of the present invention is added, the following reference experiments were performed.
[0123]
Reference Example 1
The negative-tone photosensitive resin composition (N-1 (using the silane coupling agent (a-1))) was spin-coated on a silicon wafer substrate using a spin coater (1H-360S manufactured by MIKASA CO., LTD.) at any rotation speed.
Thereafter, the resultant was pre-baked at 110°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate (SCW-636 manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.) to produce a film with a film thickness of 1.5 pm. Using a parallel light mask aligner (PLA-501F manufactured by Canon Inc.) and an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp as a light source, the film produced was exposed to light at an exposure amount of 200 mJ (i-ray). Thereafter, using an automatic developing apparatus (AD-2000, manufactured by Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd.), the film was developed by showering of an aqueous solution of 0.4% by mass tetramethylammonium hydroxide, ELM-D (available from MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL COMPANY, INC.), for 90 seconds and then rinsed with water for 30 seconds. Finally, the film was cured in air at 220°C for 1 hour using an oven (IHPS-222 manufactured by ESPEC CORP.) to produce a cured film. Cure shrinkage was calculated by the method described above to evaluate planarization capability. The results were that the cure shrinkage was 11% and the planarization capability was good.
[0124]
Evaluations were performed in the same manner as described above except using (N-27) in place of the negative-tone photosensitive resin composition (N-1).
The results were that the cure shrinkage was 9% and the planarization capability was good.
[0125]
In other words, with respect to negative-tone photosensitive resin compositions, the addition of the silane coupling agent of the present invention (a-1) in place of a conventional silane coupling agent caused almost no reduction in cure shrinkage or planarization capability.
[0126]
Reference Example 2
The positive-tone photosensitive resin composition (P-1 (using the silane coupling agent (a-1))) was spin-coated on a silicon wafer substrate using a spin coater (1H-360S manufactured by MIKASA CO., LTD.) at any rotation speed to produce a film with a film thickness of 1.5 pm. Thereafter, the film was pre-baked at 110°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate (SCW-636 manufactured by Dainippon
Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.). Using an automatic developing apparatus (AD-2000, manufactured by Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd.), the film was developed by showering of an aqueous solution of 0.4% by mass tetramethylammonium hydroxide, ELM-D (available from MITSUBISHI GAS CHEMICAL COMPANY, INC.), for 90 seconds and then rinsed with water for 30 seconds. Next, using a parallel light mask aligner (PLA-501F manufactured by Canon Inc.) and an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp as a light source, the film was exposed to light at an exposure amount of 6000 mJ (i-ray). Finally, the film was cured in air at 220°C for 1 hour using an oven (IHPS-222 manufactured by ESPEC CORP.) to produce a cured film. Cure shrinkage was calculated by the method described above to evaluate planarization capability. The results were that the cure shrinkage was 16% and the planarization capability was poor.
Evaluations were performed in the same manner as described above except using (P-2) in place of the positive-tone photosensitive resin composition (P-1).
The results were that the cure shrinkage was 13% and the planarization capability was good.
[0127]
In other words, with respect to positive-tone photosensitive resin compositions, the addition of the silane coupling agent of the present invention (a-1) in place of a conventional silane coupling agent tended to reduce particularly planarization performance.
[0128]
Reference Example 3
The thermosetting resin composition (U-1 (using the silane coupling agent (a-1))) was spin-coated on a silicon wafer substrate using a spin coater (1H-360S manufactured by MIKASA CO., LTD.) at any rotation speed to produce a film with a film thickness of 1.5 um. Thereafter, the film was pre-baked at 110°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate (SCW-636 manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.).
Finally, the film was cured in air at 260°C for 1 hour using an oven (IHPS-222 manufactured by ESPEC CORP.) to produce a cured film. Cure shrinkage was calculated by the method described above to evaluate planarization capability. The results were that the cure shrinkage was 18% and the planarization capability was poor.
[0129]
Evaluations were performed in the same manner as described above except using (U-2) in place of the thermosetting resin composition (U-1). The results were that the cure shrinkage was 14% and the planarization capability was good.
[0130]
In other words, with respect to thermosetting resin compositions, the addition of the silane coupling agent of the present invention (a-1) in place of a conventional silane coupling agent tended to reduce cure shrinkage and planarization performance.
