Following with reference to the manufacturing approach of figure 1-Fig. 4 description according to a kind of liquid crystal cell of the embodiment of the invention.
Manufacturing approach according to the liquid crystal cell of the embodiment of the invention may further comprise the steps:
(1) color membrane substrates is carried out silk-screen and precuring, process the upper plate of liquid crystal cell;
(2) ito glass is carried out silk-screen, precuring and sprays wadding, process the lower plate of liquid crystal cell;
(3) upper plate and lower plate being carried out contraposition through seal, sealing materials is sticked to form liquid crystal cell and carries out precompressed.With
(4) a plurality of liquid crystal cells are carried out hot pressing simultaneously so that seal, sealing materials solidifies and make the liquid crystal cell box thick evenly.
Wherein, the manufacturing process in above-mentioned step (1)-(3) all is well known to those skilled in the art, and in description of the invention, will no longer narrate.It should be noted that in an embodiment of the present invention wadding is set to make the thickness (promptly going up the summation of the spacer thickness between plate thickness, following plate thickness and the upper and lower plates) of each liquid crystal cell to be 1.0mm-1.1mm.
The technical scheme of step (4) below emphasis is described:
Hot pressing in the step (4) comprises the first hot pressing stage and the second hot pressing stage, and wherein: the temperature range in the first hot pressing stage is 180 ℃-220 ℃, and be 15-40 minute heat time heating time; The temperature range in the second hot pressing stage is 155 ℃-195 ℃, and be 30-60 minute heat time heating time.Thus; To no longer follow the requirement slow, the subordinate phase quick heating that heats up of phase one in the traditional hot compression technology according to hot pressing of the present invention; But the method that utilization is rapidly heated makes liquid crystal cell reach the for example solidification temperature of epoxy resin sealant (about 150 ℃) of its seal, sealing materials at short notice.The inventor obtains through the infrared microscopy assay in test: product is reaching more than 150 ℃ and was stopping 15 minutes, and epoxy resin sealant has promptly reached solidifying requirements.
Manufacturing approach according to the liquid crystal cell of the embodiment of the invention; Shortened hot pressing time; Make that the sucker c that forms between processing material and the ito glass substrate b on wadding a surface can be owing to ultra-long time continues thawing (as shown in Figure 4) under HTHP; Thereby strengthened the absorption affinity between wadding a and the ito glass substrate b, wadding a can not moved with respect to ito glass substrate b, and then improved the thick stability of box of liquid crystal cell.
In one embodiment of the invention, hot pressing can be provided with as follows: as shown in Figure 2, I representes the first hot pressing phase temperature curve, and the temperature in the first hot pressing stage is set to 200 ℃, and be 20 minutes heat time heating time; II is the second hot pressing phase temperature curve, and the temperature in the second hot pressing stage is set to 175 ℃, and be 40 minutes heat time heating time.Through this hot pressing temperature and heat time heating time are set, can make the absorption affinity between liquid crystal cell liner bedding and padding and the ito glass substrate relatively large, thereby make the thick stability of box of liquid crystal cell higher relatively.
In addition, the liquid crystal cell that at every turn carries out hot pressing in the traditional hot compression technology simultaneously is approximately about 33mm, and even the thickness of liquid crystal cell is 1.0-1.1mm, and the quantity of then carrying out the liquid crystal cell of hot pressing simultaneously is about 30.Like this; The temperature and pressure that each liquid crystal cell obtains in hot pressing is inhomogeneous; Promptly higher near the temperature of the liquid crystal cell in thermal pressure source, pressure is bigger; And lower away from the temperature of the liquid crystal cell in thermal pressure source, pressure is less, the box of the liquid crystal cell after same thus batch hot-forming is thick inconsistent, and quality is uneven.
Therefore, in another embodiment of the present invention, step further comprises in (4): the gross thickness of a plurality of liquid crystal cells is 9-15mm.That is to say, with the quantity of the liquid crystal cell that carries out hot pressing simultaneously compare with the quantity (about 30) in the traditional heat pressing process reduced about 2/3rds, and when the thickness of each liquid crystal cell be 1.0mm-1.During 1mm, the quantity of carrying out the liquid crystal cell of hot pressing simultaneously can be 9-15.
According to the manufacturing approach of the liquid crystal cell of the embodiment of the invention, the quantity of the liquid crystal cell through reducing hot pressing simultaneously can make the temperature and pressure of each liquid crystal cell in hot pressing more even, is more conducive to improve the thick stability of liquid crystal cell box.
In one of them example of the present invention, the gross thickness of a plurality of liquid crystal cells can be 10-11mm.
Particularly, above-mentioned heat pressing process is carried out through hot press.As shown in Figure 3, the synoptic diagram when showing hot press and carrying out hot pressing.This hot press comprises hot pressing anchor clamps 1 and the hot pressing air bag skin 3 that is used to add hot pressing, and wherein hot pressing anchor clamps 1 are double-deck anchor clamps, and a plurality of liquid crystal cells 2 bed hedgehoppings that 10-11mm is thick cause hot pressing insufficient to the height that is fit to hot pressing air bag skin 3 to remedy highly not enough.
Manufacturing approach according to the liquid crystal cell of the embodiment of the invention; The time of whole heat pressing process has been shortened to 45-100 minute from traditional 195 minutes; And reduced the thickness and the quantity of carrying out a plurality of liquid crystal cells of hot pressing simultaneously, improved the thick stability of box of the liquid crystal cell after the moulding greatly.
