[table 2]
Table 2.
Using the liquid crystal duty of Examples 1 to 5 and comparative example 1~4 into the light reaction rate knead dough when agent degree of orientation
It should be noted that in table 2, the values of minimum triplet energies be chemical new range photochemistry (skirt China room), Handbook of Photochemistry,Third Edition(CRC Press)、Photochem.Photobiol.Sci., Value described in 2011,10,1902-1909 etc..
In addition, the value of the minimum triplet energies of comparative example 1 indicates the photoreactive group, that is, Chinese cassia tree being originated from polymer The minimum triplet energies of the cinnamic acid of acid groups.
As shown in table 2 like that, it is thus identified that, be added to the present invention additive Examples 1 to 5 aligning agent for liquid crystal with it is complete The aligning agent for liquid crystal of complete un-added comparative example 1 is compared, and light reaction rate reduces.
In addition it confirmed, under conditions of light reaction rate reduces, show the increasing of degree of orientation S in optically anisotropic face Greatly.
And then it is found that the minimum triplet energies value that the value of the minimum triplet energies of additive is more less than cinnamic acid is " 240 ", light reaction rate more reduces and degree of orientation S is worth i.e. 1 closer to desired in face.
Show, in the presence of the additive of the present invention, the sensitivity passivation of photoreactive group, therefore even if place Best UV irradiation areas can be also adjusted under the conditions of ultraviolet irradiation amount is excessive.
Best UV irradiation areas can be also adjusted to by being irradiated under conditions of excess even at ultraviolet light, as a result UV irradiation process In processing boundary expand, can expect to be conducive to fabrication yield raising.In turn, the type by adjusting additive and importing Light reaction rate, can be suppressed to arbitrary ratio by amount.That is, best UV exposures can be finely tuned, being adjusted to anisotropy becomes most Big exposure, so as to obtain the higher liquid crystal orientation film of orientation.
Herein, in Examples 1 to 5, the importing less than the additive of the excited triplet state energy of cinnamic acid is reduced Chinese cassia tree The effect of the light reaction rate of acid, it is therefore, i.e., estimated to play a role as delustering agent.That is, it is believed that, by swashing for cinnamic acid The delustring process that the energy of hair-like state is inactivated since the energy to additive is mobile, the light reaction rate of cinnamic acid reduces. In addition, have the minimum triplet energies difference of additive and cinnamic acid bigger, the tendency that light reaction rate more reduces, therefore imply that, The minimum triplet energies of additive are smaller, more can more advantageously choose delustring process.
It is not limited to as a result, in cinnamic acid, such as chalcone skeleton, coumarin skeleton, Stilbene skeleton, azo benzene skeleton, It carries out shining based on ultraviolet light under the conditions of existing for additive with the minimum triplet energies lower than these photoreactive groups In the case of the light reaction penetrated, a part for photoreactive group also passes through delustring process, thus, it is expected that with there is no additives State compare, light reaction rate is equivalent or reduces.As a result, even if the same liquid for not being cinnamic acid for photoreactive group Brilliant alignment agent can carry out the control of light reaction rate also in the same manner as Examples 1 to 5, be conducive to the processing boundary of UV irradiation process Expand, ultraviolet irradiation amount can be adjusted to anisotropy becomes maximum exposure.
