Saturated vapor pressure then exists preparation elongated drying time less than 2Pa if this is, until needing for a long time the problem that the productive temp time is slack-off till the carrying substrate; If saturated vapor pressure surpasses 200Pa or solvent less than 50 weight %, the problem that then exists rate of drying to become faster than wetting rate of dispersion; If solvent is more than 88 weight %, the necessary amount of the solid contents such as can't guaranteeing pigment and resin that then becomes.
As printing ink, can adopt N-methyl-2 pyrrolidone with the saturated vapor pressure that under 20 ℃, has 39Pa as solvent, solid state components such as pigment, resin, spreading agent are the printing ink of 15 weight %, in this case, contain the solvent of 85 weight %.
In addition, can also adopt N-methyl-2 pyrrolidone, have 2-ethoxyethyl group ether and the solvent that dipropylene glycol n-butyl ether with saturated vapor pressure of 8Pa is mixed gained of the saturated vapor pressure of 50Pa.
In a word, can mix solvent arbitrarily, make the saturated vapor pressure that under 20 ℃, has 2~200Pa, preferably have the saturated vapor pressure of 2~50Pa.
As printing ink, preferred surface tension force is the printing ink of 30~40mN/m.If surface tension not in said scope, when then being discharged by the discharge nozzle of ink gun 5, produces satellite line (satellite) or flight bending etc. sometimes, possibly cause the pixel generation colour mixture of the different colours of color filter, so not preferred.As capillary assay method, can enumerate ring method, plate method, sessile drop method etc., but consider that error at measurment is little, preferred sessile drop method.As the determinator that utilizes sessile drop method, for example can enumerate " DropMaster 500 " of consonance interface science Co., Ltd..

The formation of light shielding part at first, is described.It is that light shield layer, upper strata are for preventing the double-layer structure of liquid layer that light shielding part preferably makes lower floor.Use black resin layer when forming light shield layer, can give photonasty by the corresponding composition that forms this black resin layer, adopt photoetching method to carry out patterning, also can not give photonasty, adopt the photoresist method to carry out patterning.
Explain that the material that uses in the light shield layer is photosensitive situation.In this case, only light shield layer is formed pattern after, will prevent that through appropriate method liquid layer forms pattern, can obtain the BM that is obtained by light shield layer and anti-liquid laminated thus.
Light shield layer preferably uses photosensitive black-colored resin composition to form pattern.Method as coating photosensitive black-colored resin composition on substrate; Can use the method for utilizing spin coater, wire bar applicator, knife type coater, roll coater, chill coating machine, stencil printing etc. on substrate, to be coated with; Substrate impregnated in the method in the coloured composition, coloured composition is sprayed onto the first-class the whole bag of tricks of substrate.
As transparency carrier, not special the qualification can be used glass such as soda-lime glass, alkali-free glass, Pyrex, quartz glass, reaches plastic sheeting, sheet material etc.In addition, can on transparency carrier, be coated with the fusible transparent membrane that improves light shield layer and pixel and transparency carrier as required.As being used to improve fusible transparent membrane,, the bonding force of coloring film and substrate is improved if with bonding agent treatment substrates such as silane coupling agent surface.
Behind painting black resin combination on the substrate, except that desolvating, formation is filmed through air-dry, drying under reduced pressure, heat drying etc. as stated.Afterwards, as required oxygen barrier film can be set on filming.Next on this is filmed, mask is set, uses the exposure device irradiation ultraviolet radiation.Develop with alkaline-based developer subsequently.If use the alkaline-based developer of the surfactants such as nonionic class surfactant added 0.01~1 quality %, then can obtain better pattern, here, so be preferred as developer solution.
The light shield layer of gained be coated with film figure, become and form figuratum light shield layer through carrying out heat treated afterwards.Usually in air, in the blanket of nitrogen or vacuum medium, under 150~300 ℃, preferably under 180~250 ℃ temperature, continuously or stage ground carry out 0.25~5 hour heat treated.
Then, the upper strata of the light shield layer after forming pattern forms anti-liquid layer.As the preferred photosensitive polymer combination of material that uses in the anti-liquid layer, can use in negative type resist, the positive type resist any, but preferably use positive type resist.Under the situation for the positive type resist of anti-fluidity, preferably on the light shield layer after forming pattern, adopt with the identical method of filming that forms light shield layer and form filming of anti-liquid layer, afterwards, carry out so-called back-exposure from the transparent substrate side irradiation ultraviolet radiation.According to said method, can when the exposure resist, not use resist to use mask, therefore the light shield layer self behind the utilization formation pattern need not to make resist with mask and established light shield layer contraposition as mask, and operation obtains simplifying.In making public overleaf in addition; During from the light transmission glass substrate at the back side,, make the resist in the pixel portions that surrounds by light shield layer whole by irradiation all sidedly through the multipath reflection in glass etc.; So all not residual resist residue of the glass of light shield layer side wall surface and pixel portions; Thereby kept the lyophily of BM side wall surface, the lyophily of the glass of pixel portions also is improved, and the result obtains the wetting effect that is scattered in whole pixel of printing ink.
