Herein, described side chain type diamines and non-side chain type diamines are elaborated.Diamines can be divided into two kinds according to the difference of its structure.That is, have the diamines of side chain radical and the diamines that does not have side chain radical, this side chain radical is when regarding the skeleton that connects 2 amino as main chain, the base that branch comes out from main chain.By making diamines and tetracarboxylic dianhydride's reaction, can obtain to have the polyamic acid of a plurality of side chain radicals with respect to the main chain of polymkeric substance with side chain radical.When using this kind to have the polyamic acid of side chain radical, can enlarge the tilt angle of liquid crystal display device by the formed liquid crystal orienting film of LCD alignment agent that contains this polymkeric substance with respect to main polymer chain.That is, this side chain radical is the base with the effect that enlarges tilt angle.Side chain radical with this kind effect must be the base of carbon number more than 3, in the present invention, the base of this carbon number more than 3 is defined as side chain radical.As its concrete example, can enumerate: not containing ring and its end is alkyl, carbon number alkoxyl group, carbon number alkoxyalkyl 3 or more or the base of carbon number thiazolinyl 3 or more 3 or more of carbon number more than 3, and the base with the ring more than 1.And, in base with the ring more than 1, when require enlarging the effect of tilt angle more consumingly, preferably the ring of its end be have alkoxyl group more than 1 of the alkyl of carbon number more than 1, carbon number, carbon number more than 2 alkoxyalkyl and any one of the thiazolinyl of carbon number more than 2 as substituent base.When the diamines that will have this kind side chain radical as the side chain type diamines, with the diamines that do not have this kind side chain radical during as non-side chain type diamines, diamines (I) is the side chain type diamines, and, among described other diamines, diamines (1-1)~diamines (1-3) and diamines (2-1) are non-side chain type diamines, and diamines (2-2), diamines (3), diamines (4-1) and diamines (4-2) are the side chain type diamines.
And, by suitably separately using side chain type diamines and non-side chain type diamines, can be corresponding to the required separately tilt angle of various display elements.That is, owing to be to need bigger tilt angle in the longitudinal electric field mode of representative with TN mode or VA mode, the therefore main side chain type diamines that uses.At this moment, for further control tilt angle, as long as and with non-side chain type diamines.The allotment ratio of non-side chain type diamines and side chain type diamines can decide according to the size of target tilt angle.Certainly, also can be by suitably selecting side chain radical, and only use the side chain type diamines to deal with.Because therefore little the and high LCD alignment of needs of tilt angle uses at least a of non-side chain type diamines to get final product in the transverse electric field mode.
In the present invention, when when showing big tilt angle and be purpose, with at least a of diamines (I) and at least a being used in combination that is selected from diamines (2-2), diamines (3), diamines (4-1) and diamines (4-2) as the side chain type diamines.The preference of this combination is a diamines (I) and the combination of diamines (3), and the combination of diamines (I) and diamines (4-1).
And, when when showing little tilt angle and be purpose, at least a of at least a and non-side chain type diamines of diamines (I) is used in combination.When regularly, side chain type diamines and non-side chain type diamines being used in combination according to the target tilt angle.
In the present invention, be used in combination by diamines and the diamines (I) that has secondary amino, tertiary amine base or nitrogen heterocycle in the skeleton with residue, can utilize the synergistic effect of OH base with the nitrogen-atoms of diamines (I), and further increase diamines (I) for long-term light reliability, promptly at the effect of long light-struck reliability.Below enumerate the preference that has the diamines of secondary amino, tertiary amine base or nitrogen heterocycle in the skeleton of this kind residue.
