Abstract

A method for purifying liquid crystal material comprises the steps of settling a liquid crystal material loaded in a semi-sealed conductive box in an electric field environment, and extracting the liquid crystal material in the electric field environment. By adopting electric field action, the method for purifying the liquid crystal material can improve the resistivity of liquid crystal material to above 6*10<13> omega*cm; on the other hand, no solvent is needed so no pollution is caused to environment. Additionally, the electric field environment is typically achieved in the semi-sealed conductive glass box, thus achieving less influence by the environment and the operation, no secondary contamination on the liquid crystal, good reproducibility, and stable production of high-resistivity liquid crystal material. Additionally, the invention also has the advantages of high yield and low liquid crystal loss.

Description

A kind of method of purifying liquid crystal material
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of method of purifying liquid crystal material.
Background technology
Liquid crystal display device has been widely used in the various display terminals at present because of having advantages such as volume is little, in light weight, low in energy consumption, driving voltage is low.Critical material liquid crystal in the liquid crystal display device has a significant impact the various aspects of performance of indicating meter.Liquid crystal not only will have very high purity, and needs very high resistivity, generally must reach 10 11More than the ohmcm, especially, higher to the requirement of resistivity for display types such as high-grade STN, TFT, generally need reach 10 13More than the ohmcm.
The factor that influences liquid crystal purity is a lot, the solvent that comprises in monomer liquid crystal or the mixed liquid crystal, unreacted material, various byproduct of reaction, moisture, various zwitterions etc. completely for example, these all can impact the performance of liquid crystal, therefore want the good liquid crystal of obtained performance must remove these impurity.Remove desolvate, material, side reaction thing, moisture etc. can make liquid crystal monomer reach required purity to unreacted with the chemical process of routine completely.And zwitterion wherein is difficult to remove after reaching certain purity again, thereby makes the raising of liquid crystal resistivity comparatively difficult.And the zwitterion in the liquid crystal is one of key factor that influences liquid crystal resistivity, and ion content is high more, and the resistivity of liquid crystal is low more.Thereby, want to improve the resistivity of liquid crystal, must remove the content of the zwitterion in the liquid crystal as far as possible.
At present, absorption method is because of it is direct, easy, effect is better relatively, and is therefore many to the research of absorption method, also is the method that zwitterion the most generally uses of removing, and sorbent material commonly used has aluminum oxide, silica gel, gac, molecular sieve, polyimide particles etc.For example, it is that the polyimide that 0.1-5000 micron, specific surface are not less than 1 meters squared per gram is done the sorbent material liquid crystal purifying that US 6056892 discloses with median size, can make the resistivity of the ZLI-4792 liquid crystal that Merck Japan Ltd. produces bring up to 1.2 * 10 12Ohmcm.
US 5540857 discloses a kind of method of purification of anti-ferroelectric liquid crystals, this method comprises the anti-ferroelectric liquid crystals solution of preparation, gained solution is contacted, filters the gained liquid crystal solution with at least a sorbent material in zeolite, aluminum oxide and the silica gel and remove solvent in the liquid crystal solution, obtains resistivity and is at least 5 * 10 12The liquid crystal of ohmcm.
CN 1775908A discloses a kind of method of liquid crystal purifying, this method comprises the mixture of activated carbon fiber or activated carbon fiber and activated alumina added in the liquid crystal material and forms mixing material, mixing material is mixed in organic solvent, stirs, after removing solid impurity and solvent, obtain the liquid crystal material of high purity and high resistivity.Using this method, can be 6.0 * 10 with initial electrical resistivity 12The resistivity of the monomer liquid crystal of ohmcm brings up to 3 * 10 13More than the ohmcm, be 5.0 * 10 with initial electrical resistivity 12The resistivity of the mixed liquid crystal of ohmcm brings up to 3 * 10 13More than the ohmcm.
Though aforesaid method can improve the resistivity of liquid crystal to a certain extent, but above-mentioned absorption method all needs to use a large amount of organic solvents, this can cause environmental pollution on the one hand, also can increase cost on the other hand, extend manufacture cycle, the most important thing is, purity requirement to solvent itself is very high, in actually operating, be easy to the impurity of solvent itself is incorporated in the liquid crystal, so often occur purifying the phenomenon that purity and/or resistivity are low more on the contrary more in field of liquid crystals.Thereby aforesaid method can't be stablized the resistivity that improves liquid crystal material effectively.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to stablize the shortcoming of the resistivity that improves liquid crystal material effectively, a kind of method that can stablize the purifying liquid crystal material of the resistivity that improves liquid crystal material effectively is provided for the method that overcomes existing purifying liquid crystal material.
The method of purifying liquid crystal material provided by the invention comprises that the liquid crystal material that will be contained in the conductive glass box of semitight stops, and takes out liquid crystal material then in electric field environment in electric field environment.
The method of purifying liquid crystal material provided by the invention is by in electric field environment, improves the resistivity of liquid crystal material with electric field action, can make the resistivity of liquid crystal reach 6 * 10 on the one hand 13More than the ohmcm,, thereby can not cause pollution problem to environment on the other hand because need not to use solvent; In addition, because electric field environment is normally by realizing in the conductive glass box of semitight, thereby is subjected to the influence of environment and operation little, do not have the secondary pollution problem to liquid crystal, reproducibility is good, can stably produce the high resistivity liquid crystal material.In addition, this method also has yield height, the low advantage of liquid crystal loss.
