Description

波長変換部材、バックライトユニット、画像表示装置及び硬化性組成物Wavelength conversion member, backlight unit, image display device, and curable composition
 本発明は、波長変換部材、バックライトユニット、画像表示装置及び硬化性組成物に関する。 The present invention relates to a wavelength conversion member, a backlight unit, an image display device, and a curable composition.
 近年、液晶表示装置等の画像表示装置の分野においては、ディスプレイの色再現性を向上させることが求められている。色再現性を向上させる手段として、特表2013-544018号公報及び国際公開第2016/052625号に記載のように、量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材が注目を集めている。 In recent years, in the field of image display devices such as liquid crystal display devices, it has been required to improve the color reproducibility of displays. As means for improving color reproducibility, wavelength conversion members including quantum dot phosphors are attracting attention as described in JP 2013-544018 A and International Publication No. 2016/052625.
 量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材は、例えば、画像表示装置のバックライトユニットに配置される。赤色光を発光する量子ドット蛍光体及び緑色光を発光する量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材を用いる場合、波長変換部材に対して励起光としての青色光を照射すると、量子ドット蛍光体から発光された赤色光及び緑色光と、波長変換部材を透過した青色光とにより、白色光を得ることができる。量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材の開発により、ディスプレイの色再現性は、従来のNTSC(National Television System Committee)比72%からNTSC比100%へと拡大している。 The wavelength conversion member including the quantum dot phosphor is disposed, for example, in the backlight unit of the image display device. When a wavelength conversion member including a quantum dot phosphor that emits red light and a quantum dot phosphor that emits green light is used, when the wavelength conversion member is irradiated with blue light as excitation light, the quantum dot phosphor emits light. White light can be obtained by the red light and green light that have been generated and the blue light that has passed through the wavelength conversion member. With the development of wavelength conversion members including quantum dot phosphors, the color reproducibility of displays has been expanded from 72% of the conventional NTSC (National Television System Committee) ratio to 100% of the NTSC ratio.
 量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材は、通常、量子ドット蛍光体を含む硬化性組成物を硬化させた硬化物を有する。硬化性組成物としては熱硬化型及び光硬化型があり、生産性の観点からは光硬化型の硬化性組成物が好ましく用いられる。 The wavelength conversion member containing the quantum dot phosphor usually has a cured product obtained by curing a curable composition containing the quantum dot phosphor. The curable composition includes a thermosetting type and a photocurable type, and a photocurable type curable composition is preferably used from the viewpoint of productivity.
 ところで、量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材では、量子ドット蛍光体を含む硬化物の少なくとも一部が被覆材によって被覆される場合がある。例えば、フィルム状の波長変換材の場合、量子ドット蛍光体を含む硬化物の片面又は両面に、酸素に対するバリア性を有するバリアフィルムが設けられることがある。 By the way, in the wavelength conversion member containing quantum dot fluorescent substance, at least one part of the hardened | cured material containing quantum dot fluorescent substance may be coat | covered with a coating material. For example, in the case of a film-like wavelength conversion material, a barrier film having a barrier property against oxygen may be provided on one side or both sides of a cured product containing a quantum dot phosphor.
 このように酸素に対するバリア性を有するバリアフィルムを設けた場合であっても、硬化物中の量子ドット蛍光体は酸素の影響により劣化するという問題が生じやすい。そのため、量子ドット蛍光体を含む波長変換部材を高温高湿環境下で放置した場合に、量子ドット蛍光体が劣化し発光強度が低下するおそれがある。 Even when a barrier film having a barrier property against oxygen is provided in this way, the quantum dot phosphor in the cured product is likely to deteriorate due to the influence of oxygen. Therefore, when the wavelength conversion member containing the quantum dot phosphor is left in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, the quantum dot phosphor may deteriorate and the emission intensity may decrease.
 特に、量子ドット蛍光体を含む光硬化型の硬化性組成物の硬化物は、高温高湿環境下での耐久性(耐湿熱性)が不十分であり、量子ドット蛍光体が劣化し発光強度が低下しやすい傾向にある。 In particular, a cured product of a photocurable curable composition containing a quantum dot phosphor has insufficient durability (moisture and heat resistance) in a high-temperature and high-humidity environment, and the quantum dot phosphor is deteriorated and has a light emission intensity. It tends to decrease.

<波長変換部材>
 本開示の波長変換部材は、量子ドット蛍光体を含み、アルキレンオキシ構造を有する硬化物を備える。本開示の波長変換部材は、必要に応じて、後述する被覆材等のその他の構成要素を含んでいてもよい。
 本開示の硬化物は、後述する本開示の硬化性組成物の硬化物であってもよい。
 本開示の波長変換部材は、画像表示用として好適に用いられる。
<Wavelength conversion member>
The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure includes a cured product including a quantum dot phosphor and having an alkyleneoxy structure. The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure may include other components such as a coating material to be described later as necessary.
The cured product of the present disclosure may be a cured product of the curable composition of the present disclosure described later.
The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure is suitably used for image display.
 本開示の波長変換部材は、硬化物がアルキレンオキシ構造を有することにより、高温高湿環境下に晒された場合であっても量子ドット蛍光体の劣化の指標となる相対発光強度保持率が改善し、耐湿熱性に優れる。これは、アルキレンオキシ構造により硬化物に極性が付与され、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分(例えば、樹脂成分)に溶解しにくくなっているため、量子ドット蛍光体に酸素が接触しにくくなり、量子ドットの酸化劣化が抑制されていることが理由であると推察される。なお、アルキレンオキシ構造は、例えば、後述する硬化性組成物に含まれるアルキレンオキシ基含有化合物におけるアルキレンオキシ基由来であってもよい。 The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure has improved relative emission intensity retention, which is an indicator of deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor, even when exposed to a high temperature and high humidity environment because the cured product has an alkyleneoxy structure. And excellent in heat and humidity resistance. This is because polarity is imparted to the cured product by the alkyleneoxy structure, and nonpolar oxygen is difficult to dissolve in components (eg, resin components) in the cured product, so that it is difficult for oxygen to contact the quantum dot phosphor. Thus, the reason is that the oxidative deterioration of the quantum dots is suppressed. The alkyleneoxy structure may be derived, for example, from an alkyleneoxy group in an alkyleneoxy group-containing compound contained in the curable composition described later.
 また、硬化物中の成分がアルキレンオキシ構造を有することにより、硬化物中の成分と量子ドット蛍光体との相溶性が低下して硬化物が白濁しやすいため、硬化物に光散乱効果が付与される傾向にある。 In addition, since the component in the cured product has an alkyleneoxy structure, the compatibility between the component in the cured product and the quantum dot phosphor is reduced, and the cured product is likely to become cloudy, thus providing a light scattering effect to the cured product. Tend to be.
 また、本開示の波長変換部材では、量子ドット蛍光体の酸化劣化が好適に抑制されているため、硬化物中の量子ドット蛍光体の含有量を従来よりも少なくしても良好な発光強度が得られる傾向にある。 Further, in the wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure, since the oxidative deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor is suitably suppressed, even if the content of the quantum dot phosphor in the cured product is reduced as compared with the conventional case, a good emission intensity is obtained. It tends to be obtained.
 また、硬化物は、スルフィド構造を有することが好ましい。硬化物がスルフィド構造を有することにより、硬化物の極性向上に寄与し、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分に好適に溶解しにくくなる傾向にある。なお、スルフィド構造は、例えば、後述する硬化性組成物に含まれ得る多官能チオール化合物におけるチオール基と、炭素炭素二重結合等の重合性反応基を含む化合物(例えば、後述するアルキレンオキシ基含有化合物)における重合性反応基との重合反応により、形成されたものであってもよい。 The cured product preferably has a sulfide structure. When the cured product has a sulfide structure, it contributes to improving the polarity of the cured product, and non-polar oxygen tends to be difficult to dissolve suitably in the components in the cured product. The sulfide structure is, for example, a compound containing a thiol group in a polyfunctional thiol compound that can be included in the curable composition described later and a polymerizable reactive group such as a carbon-carbon double bond (for example, an alkyleneoxy group containing described later) It may be formed by a polymerization reaction with a polymerizable reactive group in the compound).
 また、硬化物は、脂環式構造を有していてもよい。
 硬化物に含まれる脂環式構造は特に限定されるものではない。脂環式構造の具体例としては、トリシクロデカン骨格、シクロヘキサン骨格、1,3-アダマンタン骨格、水添ビスフェノールA骨格、水添ビスフェノールF骨格、水添ビスフェノールS骨格、イソボルニル骨格等が挙げられる。これらの中でも、トリシクロデカン骨格又はイソボルニル骨格であることが好ましく、トリシクロデカン骨格であることがより好ましい。
Moreover, the cured product may have an alicyclic structure.
The alicyclic structure contained in the cured product is not particularly limited. Specific examples of the alicyclic structure include a tricyclodecane skeleton, a cyclohexane skeleton, a 1,3-adamantane skeleton, a hydrogenated bisphenol A skeleton, a hydrogenated bisphenol F skeleton, a hydrogenated bisphenol S skeleton, and an isobornyl skeleton. Among these, a tricyclodecane skeleton or an isobornyl skeleton is preferable, and a tricyclodecane skeleton is more preferable.
 硬化物に含まれる脂環式構造は、1種類単独であっても、少なくとも2種類であってもよい。
 少なくとも2種類の脂環式構造が硬化物に含まれる場合、脂環式構造の組み合わせとしては、トリシクロデカン骨格及びイソボルニル骨格の組み合わせ、水添ビスフェノールA骨格及びイソボルニル骨格の組み合わせ等が挙げられる。これらの中でも、トリシクロデカン骨格及びイソボルニル骨格の組み合わせが好ましい。
The alicyclic structure contained in the cured product may be one type alone or at least two types.
When at least two types of alicyclic structures are contained in the cured product, examples of combinations of alicyclic structures include a combination of a tricyclodecane skeleton and an isobornyl skeleton, a combination of a hydrogenated bisphenol A skeleton and an isobornyl skeleton, and the like. Among these, a combination of a tricyclodecane skeleton and an isobornyl skeleton is preferable.
 また、硬化物は、エステル構造を有していてもよい。なお、エステル構造は、例えば、後述する硬化性組成物に含まれるアルキレンオキシ基含有化合物中のエステル構造由来であってもよい。 The cured product may have an ester structure. The ester structure may be derived from, for example, an ester structure in an alkyleneoxy group-containing compound contained in the curable composition described later.
 本開示の波長変換部材は、硬化物におけるジヨードメタンの接触角及び水の接触角を用い、Wuの式より算出される極性成分は、5mJ/m~12mJ/mであることが好ましい。前述の極性成分が5mJ/m以上であることにより、硬化物は極性が高く、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分に好適に溶解しにくくなっているため、高温高湿環境下にて硬化物中の量子ドット蛍光体の酸化劣化が好適に抑制される傾向にある。前述の極性成分が12mJ/m以下であることにより、硬化物のガラス転移温度が低下することに起因した硬化物の凝集力の低下を抑制でき、硬化物における酸素の透過性の上昇を好適に抑制できる傾向にある。なお、極性成分は、後述する実施例に記載されている方法にて測定すればよい。 The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure uses the contact angle of diiodomethane and the contact angle of water in the cured product, and the polar component calculated from the Wu equation is preferably 5 mJ / m 2 to 12 mJ / m 2 . When the above-mentioned polar component is 5 mJ / m 2 or more, the cured product has a high polarity, and non-polar oxygen is not easily dissolved in the components in the cured product. There is a tendency that oxidative deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor in the cured product is suitably suppressed. When the aforementioned polar component is 12 mJ / m 2 or less, a decrease in the cohesive force of the cured product due to a decrease in the glass transition temperature of the cured product can be suppressed, and an increase in oxygen permeability in the cured product is preferable. It tends to be suppressed. In addition, what is necessary is just to measure a polar component by the method described in the Example mentioned later.
 前述の極性成分は、耐湿熱性にさらに優れる点から、5.5mJ/m~11mJ/mであることが好ましく、6.0mJ/m~10.5mJ/mであることがより好ましく、6.0mJ/m~10mJ/mであることがさらに好ましい。 Polar components described above, from the viewpoint of further excellent wet heat resistance is preferably 5.5mJ / m 2 ~ 11mJ / m 2, more preferably from 6.0mJ / m 2 ~ 10.5mJ / m 2 6.0 mJ / m 2 to 10 mJ / m 2 is more preferable.
 本開示の波長変換部材は、温度40℃かつ相対湿度70%の条件下での硬化物の透湿度が20g/m・day以上であることが好ましい。前述の透湿度がある一定の値以上であることにより、硬化物は極性が高く、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分に好適に溶解しにくくなっているため、高温高湿環境下にて硬化物中の量子ドット蛍光体の酸化劣化が好適に抑制される傾向にある。さらに、透湿度がある一定の値以上の硬化物は水分を吸着しやすく、水分を吸着することで硬化物の極性がより高くなり、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分により溶解しにくくなるため、量子ドット蛍光体の酸化劣化が好適に抑制されていることも推測される。 The wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure preferably has a moisture permeability of 20 g / m 2 · day or more under the conditions of a temperature of 40 ° C. and a relative humidity of 70%. Since the moisture permeability mentioned above is a certain value or more, the cured product has high polarity, and non-polar oxygen is not easily dissolved in the components in the cured product. There is a tendency that oxidative deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor in the cured product is suitably suppressed. Furthermore, a cured product having a moisture permeability of a certain value or more is likely to adsorb moisture, and by adsorbing moisture, the polarity of the cured product becomes higher, and nonpolar oxygen is less likely to be dissolved by components in the cured product. Therefore, it is presumed that the oxidative deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor is suitably suppressed.
 温度40℃かつ相対湿度70%の条件下での硬化物の透湿度は、後述する実施例に記載されているように、JIS Z 0208:1976の測定法に準拠して測定することができる。 The moisture permeability of the cured product under the conditions of a temperature of 40 ° C. and a relative humidity of 70% can be measured according to the measurement method of JIS Z 0208: 1976 as described in the examples described later.
 前述の透湿度は、発光強度の低下がより好適に抑制される点から、30g/m・day以上であることがより好ましく、40g/m・day以上であることがさらに好ましく、50g/m・day以上であることが特に好ましく、60g/m・day以上であることがより一層好ましい。 The above-mentioned moisture permeability is more preferably 30 g / m 2 · day or more, further preferably 40 g / m 2 · day or more, more preferably 50 g / m 2 · day or more, from the viewpoint that the decrease in emission intensity is more suitably suppressed. particularly preferably m is 2 · day or more, and still more preferably 60 g / m 2 · day or more.
 また、前述の透湿度は、硬化物の凝集力低下による酸素の透過性上昇を抑制する点から、250g/m・day以下であることが好ましく、210g/m・day以下であることがより好ましく、180g/m・day以下であることがさらに好ましく、150g/m・day以下であることが特に好ましい。 The moisture permeability is preferably 250 g / m 2 · day or less, more preferably 210 g / m 2 · day or less, from the viewpoint of suppressing an increase in oxygen permeability due to a decrease in cohesive strength of the cured product. More preferably, it is more preferably 180 g / m 2 · day or less, and particularly preferably 150 g / m 2 · day or less.
 フーリエ変換赤外分光光度計で測定した硬化物における、C=C伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク面積(V1)と、S-H伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク面積(V2)との比率(V1/V2)は、0.00052以下であることが好ましく、0.0001以下であることがより好ましく、0.00009以下であることがさらに好ましい。
 なお、比率(V1/V2)は、0.00001以上であってもよく、0.00003以上であってもよく、0.00004以上であってもよい。
 硬化物が、チオール基を含む化合物(例えば、多官能チオール化合物)におけるチオール基と炭素炭素二重結合を含む化合物(例えば、後述するアルキレンオキシ基含有化合物)における炭素炭素二重結合との重合反応により形成されたものである場合、比率(V1/V2)が小さいことは即ち、重合反応に寄与していないチオール基が多いことを示唆する。重合反応に寄与していないチオール基がある程度存在すると、未反応のチオール基が量子ドット蛍光体に配位して量子ドット蛍光体の劣化が抑制される傾向にある。
 一方、重合反応に寄与していないチオール基が多いと、硬化物のガラス転移温度が小さくなる傾向にあるため、硬化物の凝集力低下により酸素の透過性が上昇する傾向があるが、硬化物の加工性に優れる傾向にある。
 硬化物における、C=C伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク面積(V1)及びS-H伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク面積(V2)は、フーリエ変換赤外分光光度計を用いて下記方法により測定された値をいう。
 FT-IR Spectrometer(Perkin Elmer社)を用いて、測定対象の波長変換部材の表面をATR(Attenuated Total Reflection(全反射測定法))分析する。バックグラウンド測定は、空気で測定し、積算回数16回の条件でFT-IR測定を実施する。波長変換部材が被覆材を有する場合、被覆材を剥離した状態の波長変換部材の硬化物をFT-IR測定に供する。
In a cured product measured with a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer, a ratio (V1 /) of a peak area (V1) attributed to C = C stretching vibration and a peak area (V2) attributed to SH stretching vibration in a cured product. V2) is preferably 0.00052 or less, more preferably 0.0001 or less, and further preferably 0.00009 or less.
The ratio (V1 / V2) may be 0.00001 or more, 0.00003 or more, or 0.00004 or more.
Polymerization reaction between a thiol group in a compound containing a thiol group (for example, a polyfunctional thiol compound) and a carbon-carbon double bond in a compound containing a carbon-carbon double bond (for example, an alkyleneoxy group-containing compound described later). In other words, the small ratio (V1 / V2) indicates that there are many thiol groups not contributing to the polymerization reaction. When a thiol group that does not contribute to the polymerization reaction is present to some extent, the unreacted thiol group is coordinated to the quantum dot phosphor and the deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor tends to be suppressed.
On the other hand, if there are many thiol groups that do not contribute to the polymerization reaction, the glass transition temperature of the cured product tends to decrease, so the oxygen permeability tends to increase due to the reduced cohesive strength of the cured product. It tends to be excellent in workability.
In the cured product, the peak area (V1) attributed to C = C stretching vibration and the peak area (V2) attributed to SH stretching vibration were measured by the following method using a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer. Value.
Using an FT-IR Spectrometer (Perkin Elmer), the surface of the wavelength conversion member to be measured is subjected to ATR (Attenuated Total Reflection) analysis.

For example, when the cured product is in the form of a film, one side or both sides of the film-like cured product may be covered with a film-shaped coating material.
 被覆材は、量子ドット蛍光体の発光効率の低下を抑える観点から、酸素に対するバリア性を有することが好ましい。 It is preferable that the coating material has a barrier property against oxygen from the viewpoint of suppressing a decrease in light emission efficiency of the quantum dot phosphor.
 また、本開示の波長変換部材は、硬化物は極性が高く、非極性の酸素が硬化物中の成分(例えば、樹脂成分)に溶解しにくくなっていると考えられるため、後述の無機層を有するバリアフィルムよりも酸素に対するバリア性の低い被覆材を有する構成であってもよい。 In addition, since the wavelength conversion member of the present disclosure is considered that the cured product has high polarity and nonpolar oxygen is hardly dissolved in a component (for example, a resin component) in the cured product, an inorganic layer described later is provided. The structure which has a coating | coated material with a barrier property with respect to oxygen lower than the barrier film to have may be sufficient.
 波長変換部材が被覆材を有する場合、被覆材の材質は、特に制限されない。例えば、樹脂が挙げられる。樹脂の種類は特に制限されず、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)、ポリエチレンナフタレート(PEN)等のポリエステル、ポリエチレン(PE)、ポリプロピレン(PP)等のポリオレフィン、ナイロン等のポリアミド、エチレン-ビニルアルコール共重合体(EVOH)などが挙げられる。また、被覆材は、バリア機能を高めるためのバリア層を備えたもの(バリアフィルム)であってもよい。バリア層としては、アルミナ、シリカ等の無機物を含む無機層が挙げられる。 When the wavelength conversion member has a coating material, the material of the coating material is not particularly limited.

The average thickness of the film-shaped coating material is obtained in the same manner as the average thickness of the film-shaped wavelength conversion member.

The coating material containing EVOH tends to be inferior to the water barrier property than the barrier film composed of the resin base material and the inorganic layer, but suppresses deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor because the oxygen permeability is particularly low among the resins. It has a sufficient oxygen barrier property.
 EVOHにおけるエチレンに由来する構造単位の割合(エチレン含有率)は特に制限されず、波長変換部材の所望の特性等を考慮して選択できる。酸素バリア性の観点からは、エチレン含有率が小さいことが好ましく、強度及び耐水性の観点からは、エチレン含有率が大きいことが好ましい。例えば、EVOHにおけるエチレン含有率は20モル%~50モル%であることが好ましく、25モル%~45モル%であることがより好ましく、30モル%~40モル%であることがさらに好ましい。 The proportion of ethylene-derived structural units (ethylene content) in EVOH is not particularly limited, and can be selected in consideration of the desired characteristics of the wavelength conversion member. From the viewpoint of oxygen barrier properties, the ethylene content is preferably small, and from the viewpoint of strength and water resistance, the ethylene content is preferably large. For example, the ethylene content in EVOH is preferably 20 mol% to 50 mol%, more preferably 25 mol% to 45 mol%, and even more preferably 30 mol% to 40 mol%.
 EVOHを含む被覆材の平均厚みは、例えば、20μm以上であることが好ましく、50μm以上であることがより好ましい。平均厚みが20μm以上であると、バリア性等の機能が充分なものとなる傾向にある。
 EVOHを含む被覆材の平均厚みは、例えば、150μm以下であることが好ましく、125μm以下であることがより好ましい。平均厚みが150μm以下であると、光透過率の低下が抑えられる傾向にある。
The average thickness of the covering material containing EVOH is, for example, preferably 20 μm or more, and more preferably 50 μm or more. When the average thickness is 20 μm or more, functions such as barrier properties tend to be sufficient.
The average thickness of the covering material containing EVOH is, for example, preferably 150 μm or less, and more preferably 125 μm or less. When the average thickness is 150 μm or less, a decrease in light transmittance tends to be suppressed.

(Moisture and heat resistance)
Each wavelength conversion member obtained above was cut into a 17 mm diameter to prepare a sample for evaluation. The initial emission intensity of the sample for evaluation was measured with a fiber multichannel spectrometer (Ocean Photonics Co., Ltd., Ocean View). Next, the sample for evaluation was put into a constant temperature and humidity chamber under an environment of 85 ° C. and 95% RH (relative humidity) and allowed to stand for 1000 hours, and then the emission intensity was measured. The relative light emission intensity retention rate of the wavelength conversion member was calculated according to the following formula.
Relative emission intensity retention rate: (RLb / RLa) × 100
RLa: Initial relative light emission intensity RLb: Relative light emission intensity after 1000 hours in an environment of 85 ° C. and 95% RH Note that the higher the value of the relative light emission intensity retention rate, the better the wavelength conversion member is in heat and moisture resistance.
(極性成分の測定)

(Measurement of polar components)
The PET films on both sides of each wavelength conversion member obtained above were peeled off, and the contact angle of the cured product with respect to two liquids of diiodomethane and water was measured using a contact angle meter (Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd., DM-701). . The appropriate amount of liquid was 0.5 μL, and the contact angle was calculated by the 2θ method. Based on the measured diiodomethane contact angle and water contact angle, the polar component (mJ / m 2 ) was calculated from the Wu equation using analysis software (Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd., FAMAS).
(透湿度)

Specifically, 10 g of calcium chloride is measured in a moisture permeable cup, each cured product is fixed to the moisture permeable cup so that the exposed portion has a diameter of 6 cm, and the conditions are 40 ° C. and 70% relative humidity. The moisture permeability was calculated from the mass change of the cured product when allowed to stand for 24 hours.
(ガラス転移温度)
 上記で得られた各波長変換部材のPETフィルムを剥離し、幅5mm、長さ40mmの寸法に裁断して評価用硬化物を得た。そして、広域動的粘弾性測定装置(Rheometric Scientific社、Solid Analyzer RSA-III)を用いて、「引張モード、チャック間距離:25mm、周波数:10Hz、測定温度範囲:-20℃~180℃、昇温速度:10℃/分」の条件で、評価用硬化物の貯蔵弾性率(E’)及び損失弾性率(E’’)を測定し、その比から損失正接(tanδ)を求め、損失正接(tanδ)のピークトップ部分の温度からガラス転移温度(Tg)を求めた。
(Glass-transition temperature)
The PET film of each wavelength conversion member obtained above was peeled off and cut into dimensions of 5 mm in width and 40 mm in length to obtain a cured product for evaluation. Then, using a wide-range dynamic viscoelasticity measuring apparatus (Rheometric Scientific, Solid Analyzer RSA-III), “tensile mode, distance between chucks: 25 mm, frequency: 10 Hz, measurement temperature range: −20 ° C. to 180 ° C., ascending The storage elastic modulus (E ′) and loss elastic modulus (E ″) of the cured product for evaluation were measured under the condition of “temperature rate: 10 ° C./min”, and the loss tangent (tan δ) was obtained from the ratio, and the loss tangent The glass transition temperature (Tg) was determined from the temperature at the peak top portion of (tan δ).
(FT-IRピーク面積比率(V1/V2))
 上記で得られた各波長変換部材のPETフィルムを剥離しFT-IR Spectrometer(Perkin Elmer社)を用いて、硬化物の表面をATR分析した。バックグラウンド測定は、空気で測定し、積算回数16回の条件でFT-IR測定を実施し、下記式に従ってFT-IRピーク面積比率を算出した。なお、比較例2では、多官能チオール化合物を使用していないため、ATR分析を行っていない。
FT-IRピーク面積比率:V1/V2
V1:C=C伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク(ピーク波長:1637cm-1)のピーク面積
V2:S-H伸縮振動に帰属されるピーク(ピーク波長:2570cm-1)のピーク面積
(FT-IR peak area ratio (V1 / V2))
The PET film of each wavelength conversion member obtained above was peeled off, and the surface of the cured product was subjected to ATR analysis using FT-IR Spectrometer (Perkin Elmer). For background measurement, measurement was performed with air, FT-IR measurement was performed under the condition of 16 integrations, and the FT-IR peak area ratio was calculated according to the following formula. In Comparative Example 2, since no polyfunctional thiol compound is used, ATR analysis is not performed.
FT-IR peak area ratio: V1 / V2
V1: Peak area of a peak attributed to C = C stretching vibration (peak wavelength: 1637 cm −1 ) V2: Peak area of a peak attributed to SH stretching vibration (peak wavelength: 2570 cm −1 )

 表2から分かるように、実施例1~4にて硬化物がアルキレンオキシ構造を有することにより、耐湿熱性の指標である相対発光強度保持率が改善することがわかった。これは、極性の高い硬化物中の樹脂に非極性の酸素が溶解しにくくなったため、高温高湿環境下にて量子ドット蛍光体の酸化劣化が抑制されたことに起因すると推測される。
 一方、実施例2~4では、極性成分が増加すると、相対発光強度保持率が低下する傾向が見られた。この理由は、硬化物のTgが低下することにより、硬化物の凝集力が低下したため、硬化物における酸素の透過性が上昇してしまったことが原因であると推測される。
As can be seen from Table 2, it was found that, in Examples 1 to 4, the cured product had an alkyleneoxy structure, thereby improving the relative light emission intensity retention rate, which is an index of moisture and heat resistance. This is presumed to be due to the fact that non-polar oxygen is less likely to dissolve in the resin in the highly polar cured product, so that the oxidative deterioration of the quantum dot phosphor is suppressed in a high temperature and high humidity environment.
On the other hand, in Examples 2 to 4, when the polar component increased, the relative light emission intensity retention rate tended to decrease. The reason for this is presumed to be that oxygen permeability in the cured product has increased since the cohesive force of the cured product has decreased due to a decrease in the Tg of the cured product.
