液晶定向處理劑、液晶定向膜及液晶顯示元件 Liquid crystal directional treatment agent, liquid crystal alignment film and liquid crystal display element

本發明係關於在製作液晶定向膜時所使用的液晶定向處理劑及使用有液晶定向處理劑之液晶定向膜及液晶顯示元件。 The present invention relates to a liquid crystal alignment treatment agent used in the production of a liquid crystal alignment film, and a liquid crystal alignment film and a liquid crystal display element using the liquid crystal alignment treatment agent.

於液晶電視、液晶顯示器等所使用的液晶顯示元件,目前係作為實現薄型、輕量的顯示裝置而被廣泛使用。使液晶定向的液晶定向膜,主要係使用:將以聚醯胺酸(亦稱為polyamic acid)等之聚醯亞胺前驅物或可溶性聚醯亞胺的溶液作為主成分之液晶定向處理劑塗佈於玻璃基板等,再經燒成而成之所謂聚醯亞胺系之液晶定向膜。 Liquid crystal display elements used in liquid crystal televisions, liquid crystal displays, and the like are currently widely used as thin and lightweight display devices. A liquid crystal alignment film for orienting a liquid crystal is mainly used by coating a liquid crystal aligning agent containing a solution of a polyamidamine precursor such as polyamic acid (also called polyamic acid) or a soluble polyimine as a main component. A so-called polyimine-based liquid crystal alignment film which is baked on a glass substrate or the like and then fired.

伴隨著液晶顯示元件之更趨大型化、高精細化,並基於所謂液晶顯示元件的對比降低之控制或殘影現象之減低的需求,於液晶定向膜中,除了優異的液晶定向性、或液晶分子對於基板面的定向傾斜角(預傾角)之穩定的展現及控制之外,高電壓保持率、藉由交流驅動而產生的殘影之控制、由施加直流電壓時少量的殘留電荷、直流電壓所導致之積蓄的殘留電荷之迅速緩和等特性亦逐漸變得重要。液晶定向處理劑的成分之聚醯胺酸等之聚醯亞胺前驅物或可溶性聚醯亞胺,一般而言係藉由四羧酸二酐等之四羧酸衍生物與二胺成分之反應而合成,四羧酸衍生物及二胺成分之結構係為了滿足上述之液晶定向膜的各特性而作 各種選擇。 In addition to the demand for reduction in control or image sticking of the so-called liquid crystal display element, the liquid crystal display element is superior in liquid crystal alignment film, in addition to excellent liquid crystal orientation, or liquid crystal. In addition to the stable display and control of the orientation tilt angle (pretilt angle) of the substrate surface, high voltage retention, control of afterimage caused by AC drive, small residual charge by application of DC voltage, DC voltage The characteristics such as the rapid relaxation of the residual charge caused by the accumulation are gradually becoming important. The polyimine precursor or the soluble polyimine of polyamine or the like which is a component of the liquid crystal aligning agent is generally reacted with a dicarboxylic acid component such as tetracarboxylic dianhydride or the like. The structure of the tetracarboxylic acid derivative and the diamine component is synthesized in order to satisfy the characteristics of the liquid crystal alignment film described above. Various choices.

例如,針對上述之液晶的預傾角特性,係提案有:使用由將具有側鏈的二胺作為原料的一部分所製造的可溶性聚醯亞胺所構成之液晶定向處理劑的方法。於此方法中,由於因應具有側鏈的二胺之使用比例而可控制預傾角,故較容易得到目的之預傾角,就增大預傾角的手段而言為有效(參照例如專利文獻1)。 For example, a method of using a liquid crystal aligning agent composed of a soluble polyimine produced by using a diamine having a side chain as a raw material is proposed for the pretilt characteristics of the liquid crystal described above. In this method, since the pretilt angle can be controlled in accordance with the use ratio of the diamine having a side chain, it is easy to obtain the intended pretilt angle, and it is effective in the means for increasing the pretilt angle (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

但,由上述之可溶性聚醯亞胺所構成的液晶定向膜係殘留電荷特性不佳。因此,為了使預傾角特性與殘留電荷特性並存,而提案有:於上述可溶性聚醯亞胺中混合有聚醯胺酸之液晶定向處理劑(參照專利文獻2)。此外,亦提案有:含有特定之2種類的聚醯亞胺的液晶定向處理劑(專利文獻3)。 However, the liquid crystal alignment film system composed of the above-mentioned soluble polyimine has poor residual charge characteristics. Therefore, in order to coexist the pre-tilt characteristics and the residual charge characteristics, a liquid crystal aligning agent in which polylysine is mixed with the above-mentioned soluble polyimine is proposed (see Patent Document 2). In addition, a liquid crystal aligning agent containing a specific two types of polyimine is proposed (Patent Document 3).

然而,於該等文獻之液晶定向處理劑中,塗佈液晶定向處理劑時的塗膜均勻性為低,亦即,會有於塗膜面的端 部產生聚合物之凝聚物(亦稱為白化、凝聚)的情況。 However, in the liquid crystal aligning agent of these documents, the uniformity of the coating film when the liquid crystal aligning agent is applied is low, that is, there is a side at the surface of the coating film. The part produces agglomerates of polymers (also known as whitening, agglomeration).

本發明之課題在於解決上述之先前技術的問題點,並提供一種可製造賦予液晶高預傾角,且積蓄電荷為小的液晶定向膜,並且,不會引發白化、凝聚而塗膜均勻性優異的液晶定向處理劑、液晶定向膜及液晶顯示元件。 An object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art described above, and to provide a liquid crystal alignment film which imparts a high pretilt angle to a liquid crystal and which has a small accumulated charge, and which is excellent in uniformity of coating film without causing whitening or aggregation.

使二胺成分與四羧酸成分在有機溶劑中反應時,係可列舉:將於有機溶劑中分散或溶解有二胺成分的溶液加以攪拌,使四羧酸成分直接或分散或溶解於有機溶劑而進行添加的方法;相反地於在有機溶劑中分散或溶解有四羧酸 成分的溶液中添加二胺成分的方法;將四羧酸成分與二胺成分交互添加的方法等,使用此等中之任一種方法均可。此外,分別使用複數種二胺成分或四羧酸成分來進行反應時,係可在經事先混合的狀態下進行反應,亦可個別依序進行反應,進而可使經個別反應後的低分子量體混合反應而成為特定聚合物(A)或特定聚合物(B)。此時之聚合溫度雖可選擇-20℃~150℃之任意的溫度,但較佳為-5℃~100℃之範圍。此外,反應雖可在任意的濃度下進行,但若濃度過低則會變得難以得到高分子量之特定聚合物(A)或特定聚合物(B),若濃度過高則反應液的黏性會過高而變得難以均勻的攪拌。因此,二胺成分及四羧酸成分的總量之濃度,在反應液中較佳為1~50質量%,更佳為5~30質量%。反應初期係可在高濃度下進行,之後再追加有機溶劑。 When the diamine component and the tetracarboxylic acid component are reacted in an organic solvent, a solution in which a diamine component is dispersed or dissolved in an organic solvent is stirred, and the tetracarboxylic acid component is directly or dispersed or dissolved in an organic solvent.

上述之特定交聯性化合物(C),亦可因應作為液晶定向膜時的液晶定向性、電壓保持率、積蓄電荷等之特性,而混合使用1種類或2種類以上。 The above-mentioned specific crosslinkable compound (C) may be used in combination of one type or two types or more depending on the characteristics of liquid crystal alignability, voltage holding ratio, and accumulated charge when used as a liquid crystal alignment film.

可藉由含有上述之特定聚合物(A)、特定聚合物(B)及特定交聯性化合物(C)之本發明液晶定向處理劑,而得到賦予液晶高的預傾角,且作為液晶顯示元件時之積蓄電荷為小的液晶定向膜。再者,本發明之液晶定向處理劑,在塗膜面的端部並不會產生聚合物的凝聚物,也就是不會引起白化、凝聚,而塗膜均勻性優異。 The liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention containing the specific polymer (A), the specific polymer (B), and the specific crosslinkable compound (C) described above can be used to obtain a high pretilt angle for liquid crystal, and can be used as a liquid crystal display element. The accumulated charge at that time is a small liquid crystal alignment film. Further, the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention does not cause aggregation of a polymer at the end portion of the coating film surface, that is, it does not cause whitening or aggregation, and the film uniformity is excellent.

本發明之構成,具體而言,係藉由成為含有特定聚合物(A)、特定聚合物(B)及特定交聯性化合物(C)之液晶定向處理劑,而得到上述之預傾角特性、積蓄電荷特性及塗膜均勻性的效果,其理由雖並未明確,但大致推測如下。 Specifically, the composition of the present invention is obtained by a liquid crystal aligning agent containing a specific polymer (A), a specific polymer (B), and a specific crosslinkable compound (C), thereby obtaining the above-described pretilt characteristics. Although the reason for the effect of accumulating charge characteristics and uniformity of the coating film is not clear, it is roughly presumed as follows.

本發明之液晶定向處理劑中所含有之特定聚合物(B)的原料之二胺成分中之具有以上述式[1]所表示的側鏈之二胺化合物的比例,係較特定聚合物(A)的原料之二胺成分中之具有以上述式[1]所表示之側鏈之二胺化合物的比例更低。因此,可推測:由本發明之液晶定向處理劑所得之液晶定向膜,由於其提高液晶定向膜的電阻之側鏈的比例(亦即側鏈的密度)較單獨使用特定聚合物(A)時更少,因此變得不易將藉由直流電壓所積蓄的電荷積存。 The ratio of the diamine compound having a side chain represented by the above formula [1] among the diamine components of the raw material of the specific polymer (B) contained in the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention is a specific polymer ( Among the diamine components of the raw material of A), the ratio of the diamine compound having a side chain represented by the above formula [1] is lower. Therefore, it is presumed that the liquid crystal alignment film obtained by the liquid crystal alignment treatment agent of the present invention has a higher ratio of the side chain of the resistance of the liquid crystal alignment film (i.e., the density of the side chain) than when the specific polymer (A) is used alone. Since it is small, it becomes difficult to accumulate the electric charge accumulated by the DC voltage.

在此,雖可考量單純地減少具有側鏈之二胺化合物的 量以減少積蓄電荷,但若減少具有側鏈之二胺化合物的量便會產生預傾角特性惡化的問題。於本發明中,藉由成為上述本發明之構成,原料之具有以上述式[1]所表示之側鏈的二胺化合物之比例相對較少的特定聚合物(B)位於液晶定向膜之基板側,且原料之具有以上述式[1]所表示之側鏈的二胺化合物之比例相對較多的特定聚合物(A)位於液晶定向膜表面(亦即接觸到液晶的面),據此而可以推測,主要藉由特定聚合物(A)而使液晶展現良好的預傾角。且,可認為:由於原料之具有以上述式[1]所表示之側鏈的二胺化合物之比例相對較少的特定聚合物(B)位於液晶定向膜之基板側(亦即,不接觸到液晶之側),因此積蓄電荷會減低。 Here, it is possible to consider simply reducing the diamine compound having a side chain. The amount is reduced to reduce the accumulated charge, but if the amount of the diamine compound having a side chain is reduced, the problem of deterioration of the pretilt characteristics is caused. In the present invention, by the constitution of the present invention, the specific polymer (B) having a relatively small proportion of the diamine compound having the side chain represented by the above formula [1] is located on the substrate of the liquid crystal alignment film. a specific polymer (A) having a relatively large proportion of a diamine compound having a side chain represented by the above formula [1] on the surface of the liquid crystal alignment film (that is, a surface contacting the liquid crystal), It can be inferred that the liquid crystal exhibits a good pretilt angle mainly by the specific polymer (A). Further, it is considered that the specific polymer (B) having a relatively small proportion of the diamine compound having a side chain represented by the above formula [1] is located on the substrate side of the liquid crystal alignment film (that is, not in contact with The side of the liquid crystal), so the accumulated charge will be reduced.

本發明之液晶定向處理劑係可在基板上塗佈、燒成之後,利用摩擦處理(rubbing process)或光照射等進行定向處理,而作為液晶定向膜使用。此外,用於垂直定向用 途時,即使不進行定向處理也可作為液晶定向膜使用。此時所使用的基板,係只要是透明性高的基板即不特別限制,亦可使用玻璃基板以外其他的丙烯酸系基板或聚碳酸酯基板等之塑膠基板等。就製程之簡化的觀點而言,以使用形成有液晶驅動所需之ITO電極等的基板者為佳。此外,於反射型之液晶顯示元件中,若僅為單側之基板則亦可使用矽晶圓等之不透明的基板,此時之電極亦可使用鋁等之讓光反射的材料。 The liquid crystal alignment treatment agent of the present invention can be applied to a substrate, and then subjected to orientation treatment by a rubbing process or light irradiation, and then used as a liquid crystal alignment film. In addition, for vertical orientation In the meantime, it can be used as a liquid crystal alignment film even without performing orientation treatment. The substrate to be used in this case is not particularly limited as long as it is a substrate having high transparency, and an acrylic substrate such as an acrylic substrate or a plastic substrate such as a polycarbonate substrate may be used. From the viewpoint of simplification of the process, it is preferred to use a substrate on which an ITO electrode or the like required for liquid crystal driving is formed. Further, in the reflective liquid crystal display device, an opaque substrate such as a germanium wafer may be used as the substrate on one side, and a material such as aluminum that reflects light may be used as the electrode.

Evaporated to form a polymer film (liquid crystal alignment film). When the thickness of the polymer film after firing is too large, the power consumption of the liquid-display element becomes unfavorable. If the thickness of the liquid crystal display element is too small, the reliability of the liquid crystal display element is lowered. Therefore, it is preferably 5 to 300 nm. More preferably, it is 10 to 100 nm. When the liquid crystal is oriented horizontally or obliquely, the polymer film after firing is treated by rubbing or polarized ultraviolet irradiation or the like.

本發明之液晶顯示元件,係為在藉由上述之手段而由 本發明之液晶定向處理劑得到附液晶定向膜之基板之後,利用習知的方法來製作液晶胞而作成液晶顯示元件。 The liquid crystal display element of the present invention is obtained by the above means In the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention, a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film is obtained, and then a liquid crystal cell is produced by a known method to form a liquid crystal display element.

The other substrate is a method in which the liquid crystal is injected under reduced pressure and sealed, or a method in which the liquid crystal is dropped onto the liquid crystal alignment film surface on which the spacer is dispersed, and then the substrate is bonded and sealed.

液晶係使用具有正的介電異向性之正型液晶或具有負的介電異向性的負型液晶。 The liquid crystal system uses a positive liquid crystal having a positive dielectric anisotropy or a negative liquid crystal having a negative dielectric anisotropy.

進而,本發明之液晶定向處理劑,係亦適宜使用於液晶顯示元件,該液晶顯示元件在具備有電極之一對的基板之間具有液晶層而成,係經過將含有藉由活性能量線及熱之至少一者而聚合的聚合性化合物之液晶組成物配置於一對的基板之間,並一面將電壓施加於電極間一面藉由活性能量線的照射及加熱之至少一者而使聚合性化合物聚合的步驟所製造。在此,紫外線較適合作為活性能量線。 Further, the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention is also suitably used for a liquid crystal display device having a liquid crystal layer between substrates having one pair of electrodes, which is subjected to active energy rays and The liquid crystal composition of the polymerizable compound polymerized in at least one of the heat is disposed between the pair of substrates, and is polymerized by at least one of irradiation and heating of the active energy rays while applying a voltage between the electrodes Manufactured by the step of polymerizing the compound.

In the PSA method, a small amount of a photopolymerizable compound such as a photopolymerizable monomer is mixed into a liquid crystal material, and after the liquid crystal cell is attached, the photopolymerizable compound is irradiated with ultraviolet rays while applying a specific voltage to the liquid crystal layer. Etc., the pretilt of the liquid crystal molecules is controlled by the generated polymer. The orientation state of liquid crystal molecules when the polymer is formed Even if there is memory after the voltage is removed, the pretilt of the liquid crystal molecules can be adjusted by controlling the electric field or the like formed in the liquid crystal layer.

將液晶定向處理劑旋轉塗佈於附ITO電極之玻璃基板,在80℃之加熱板上使其乾燥5分鐘,之後,利用230℃之熱風循環式爐進行30分鐘燒成,形成膜厚100nm之膜而得到附液晶定向膜之基板。將本基板在輥子旋轉數1000rpm、台速度50mm/秒、輥子押入壓0.2mm下藉由棉布來摩擦。進而準備2片該基板,在其中1片的液晶定向膜面上散佈有4μm之間隔物之後,從其上印刷密封劑,在使另1片基板以朝向液晶定向膜面的方式,且使摩擦方向成為反向平行(antiparallel)的方式貼合之後,使密封劑硬化而製作出空胞。藉由減壓注入法,將液晶MLC-2041(Merck Japan公司製)注入此空胞中,並將注入口密封而得到垂直定向液晶胞。另外,使用實施例3~5及比較例1~3之液晶定向處理劑,並分別進行上述操作而得到垂直定向液晶胞。 The liquid crystal aligning agent was spin-coated on a glass substrate with an ITO electrode, and dried on a hot plate at 80 ° C for 5 minutes, and then fired in a hot air circulating furnace at 230 ° C for 30 minutes to form a film thickness of 100 nm. The film is obtained to obtain a substrate with a liquid crystal alignment film. The substrate was rubbed by a cotton cloth at a number of revolutions of the roller of 1000 rpm, a table speed of 50 mm/sec, and a roll press pressure of 0.2 mm. Further, two sheets of the substrate were prepared, and a spacer of 4 μm was spread on one of the liquid crystal alignment film surfaces, and then a sealant was printed thereon, and the other substrate was oriented toward the liquid crystal to face the film surface, and rubbing was performed. After the directions are brought into an antiparallel manner, the sealant is hardened to produce a hollow cell. Liquid crystal MLC-2041 (manufactured by Merck Japan Co., Ltd.) was injected into the hollow cell by a pressure reduction injection method, and the injection port was sealed to obtain a vertically oriented liquid crystal cell. Further, the liquid crystal aligning agents of Examples 3 to 5 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were used, and the above operations were carried out to obtain vertically oriented liquid crystal cells.

藉由精密量測法來測量此等之液晶胞的延遲(retardation),並依據液晶的尋常光折射率與異常光折射率來算出液晶之預傾角。另外,本預傾角係定義為於由基板法線方向與摩擦方向所構成之面內,來自基板水平方向的角度。將評估結果展示於表50中。 The retardation of the liquid crystal cells is measured by a precision measurement method, and the pretilt angle of the liquid crystal is calculated from the ordinary light refractive index of the liquid crystal and the extraordinary light refractive index. In addition, the pretilt angle is defined as an angle from the horizontal direction of the substrate in the plane formed by the normal direction of the substrate and the rubbing direction. The results of the evaluation are shown in Table 50.
