Description

Liquid crystal sealing agent and use the liquid crystal display of this liquid crystal sealing agent
Technical field
The present invention relates to liquid crystal sealing agent and use the liquid crystal display of this liquid crystal sealing agent (liquid crystal represents セ Le), described liquid crystal sealing agent for some glue coating (デ イ ス ペ ン ス Tu work) is excellent, can tackle silk screen printing, viscosity is the liquid crystal sealing agent of below 100Pas, and via drying process or preliminary drying (プ リ ベ イ Network) operation liquid crystal not embedding sealing portion.
Background technology
In recent years, the application extension of liquid crystal display, to the large display screen curtain of televisor etc., becomes large to the demand of liquid crystal display in a lot of purposes.Therefore, about the manufacture of liquid crystal panel, in order to improve production further, require substrate maximize and production time per piece (time of each operation) shorten.
When making liquid crystal indicator, by a method such as glue coating or silk screen printing by after liquid crystal sealing agent coating on the glass substrate, carry out sealing and forming unit, in vacuum, liquid crystal is injected in unit from the liquid crystal injecting port be arranged on a unit part, use sealing agent or sealing compound to seal this liquid crystal injecting port, make (vacuum impregnation) thus.
In addition, carry out fitting after dispenser method in the cofferdam be formed from a resin (weir) and make the liquid crystal drip-injection method of resin solidification (under liquid crystal drop method) also just practical.In liquid crystal drip-injection method, first, the plate base in 2 belt electrode transparency carriers forms the rectangular seal pattern be made up of uncured sealing agent by a glue (デ イ ス ペ Application ス).Then, under the state that sealing agent is uncured, the fine droplet of liquid crystal instiled and to be coated in the frame of the seal pattern of transparency carrier comprehensively, then fit with another transparency carrier immediately, make liquid crystal cells, to seal pattern partial illumination ultraviolet, carry out Procuring (Provisional sclerosis).Thereafter, heat as required, carry out main solidification (this sclerosis), make liquid crystal display.If the operation being made liquid crystal cells by adhesive substrates is under reduced pressure carried out, just can with high efficiency system liquid making crystal display element, at present, this drip-injection method is the main manufacture method of liquid crystal display device.
When manufacturing liquid crystal display device by liquid crystal drip-injection method, the seal pattern producing obtained liquid crystal display device deforms, phenomenon (embedding (Cha Write body) phenomenon in liquid crystal embedding sealing pattern), and there is the problem of the orientation of the liquid crystal upset near sealing pattern.As the method solving this problem, think such as there is the high sealing agent using viscosity ratio common to form the method for seal pattern, but a colloidality (デ イ ス ペ Application ス) may be made to be deteriorated, to produce the problem such as the style of calligraphy characterized by hollow strokes (か The れ), broken string (Line cuts れ) during point glue.In addition, for the purpose of further shortening production time per piece in recent years etc., in order to improve a glue speed and can easily utilize silk screen printing to form seal pattern, require viscosity lower and do not embed the sealing agent of phenomenon.
About this problem, report in patent documentation 1 before the operation carrying out making liquid crystal cells, by uncured seal pattern thickening (thickening) being prevented from embed phenomenon.But, about the initial viscosity after just preparation be below 100Pas low viscosity and in preliminary drying operation and after preliminary drying operation viscosity all can not rise terrifically for the liquid crystal sealing agent in liquid crystal drip-injection method, also beyond example.
In addition, in patent documentation 2 and 3, the liquid crystal sealing agent comprising rubbery polymer particulate is reported.In two documents, all non-below the 100Pas of initial viscosity.In patent documentation 4, report the liquid crystal sealing agent of the cross-linked rubber comprising core shell structure and specific maleimide compound, but initial viscosity is more than 100Pas.In patent documentation 5, report the liquid crystal sealing agent of the cross-linked rubber comprising core shell structure, but initial viscosity is more than 100Pas.And then stripping is to the composition in liquid crystal when rubbery polymer particulate is for suppressing when photocuring the sealing agent composition of the shading light part not easily irradiated by UV in thermofixation, do not report its effect as thickening composition during preliminary drying.
