Description

Ultraviolet-curable resin composition, method for producing organic EL light-emitting device, and organic EL light-emitting device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an ultraviolet-curable resin composition, a method for manufacturing an organic EL light-emitting device, and more particularly, to an ultraviolet-curable resin composition for sealing an organic EL element, a method for manufacturing an organic EL light-emitting device using the ultraviolet-curable resin composition, and an organic EL light-emitting device provided with the sealing material.
Background
Organic EL light-emitting devices are used for illumination, display, and the like, and are expected to be widely used in the future.
Among organic EL light-emitting devices, a device called a top emission type is configured, for example, by disposing an organic EL element on a support substrate, disposing a transparent substrate so as to face the support substrate, and filling a transparent sealing material between the support substrate and the transparent substrate. In this case, light emitted from the organic EL element can be emitted to the outside through the sealing material and the transparent substrate.
The sealing material suppresses the generation and growth of dark spots (dark spots) in the organic EL element by suppressing the intrusion of moisture into the organic EL element. The dark spot is a portion of the organic EL element that does not emit light due to moisture degradation.
The sealing material is made of a material containing an organic resin selected from an epoxy resin and an acrylic resin, for example (see patent document 1). In particular, when an acrylic resin is used, the material can be cured by ultraviolet irradiation or the like to form a sealing material, and therefore, the sealing material can be formed without applying a load due to heat to the organic EL element.
Even when the organic EL element is covered with the sealing material, the penetration of moisture into the organic EL element may not be sufficiently suppressed.

Detailed Description
Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described.
The ultraviolet-curable resin composition for sealing an organic EL element (hereinafter also referred to as composition (X)) of the present embodiment contains an acrylic compound (a) and a photopolymerization initiator (B). The acrylic compound (A) contains an acrylic compound (A1) having a structure represented by the following formula (1) and a boiling point of 270 ℃ or higher.
CH2=CR1-COO-(R3-O)n-CO-CR2=CH2…(1)
In the formula (1), R1And R2Each is hydrogen or methyl, n is an integer of 1 or more, R3Is an alkylene group having 3 or more carbon atoms, and when n is 2 or more, a plurality of R's in one molecule3May be the same or different.
The percentage of the acrylic compound (a1) to the acrylic compound (a) is 50% by mass or more. The acrylic compound (A) does not contain a compound having a boiling point of 260 ℃ or lower, or the proportion of a compound having a boiling point of 260 ℃ or lower in the acrylic compound (A) is 10% by mass or lower.
The sealing material 5 (see fig. 1) of the organic EL light-emitting device 1 can be prepared from the composition (X). The outgas due to the acrylic compound (a1) is less likely to occur from the sealing material 5. Therefore, voids due to outgassing can be less likely to be generated in the organic EL light-emitting device 1. Therefore, moisture is less likely to enter the organic EL element through the gap. Further, the acrylic compound (a1) is less likely to increase the affinity of the sealing material 5 for water, and therefore, moisture is less likely to enter the organic EL element through the sealing material 5. Therefore, moisture is less likely to enter the organic EL element.
The glass transition temperature of the cured product of the composition (X) is preferably 80 ℃ or higher. That is, the composition (X) preferably has a property of being cured into a cured product having a glass transition temperature of 80 ℃ or higher. In this case, the cured product can have good heat resistance. Therefore, for example, when a treatment accompanied by a temperature increase is performed on a cured product, the cured product is less likely to deteriorate. Therefore, for example, when the passivation layer 6 is formed by laminating the passivation layer on the sealing material 5 formed of the composition (X) by a vapor deposition method such as a plasma CVD method, the sealing material 5 is less likely to be deteriorated even if the sealing material 5 is heated. The glass transition temperature of the cured product is more preferably 90 ℃ or higher, and still more preferably 100 ℃ or higher. The glass transition temperature of the cured product can be achieved by the composition of the composition (X) described in detail below.
The viscosity of the composition (X) at 25 ℃ is preferably 1 mPas to 30 mPas. In this case, the composition (X) can be easily molded at ordinary temperature by a method such as a casting method, or can be molded by an ink-jet method. The viscosity is more preferably 25 mPas or less, still more preferably 20 mPas or less, and particularly preferably 15 mPas or less. The viscosity is also preferably 5 mPas or more.
The viscosity of the composition (X) at 40 ℃ is preferably 1 mPas or more and 30 mPas or less. In this case, the viscosity of the composition (X) can be reduced by slightly heating the composition (X) regardless of the viscosity at room temperature. Therefore, if heating is performed, the composition (X) can be easily molded by a method such as a casting method, or can be molded by an ink-jet method. Further, since the viscosity of the composition (X) can be reduced without substantially heating the composition (X), the composition of the composition (X) is less likely to change due to volatilization of components in the composition (X). The viscosity is more preferably 25 mPas or less, still more preferably 20 mPas or less, and particularly preferably 15 mPas or less. The viscosity is also preferably 5 mPas or more.
The viscosity of the composition (X) was measured at a shear rate of 100s-1 using a rheometer. As the rheometer, for example, model DHR-2 manufactured by Anton Paar Japan can be used.
The low viscosity at 25 ℃ or 40 ℃ of such a composition (X) can be achieved by the composition of the composition (X) as specified hereinafter.
The total light transmittance of the cured product of the composition (X) is preferably 90% or more when the thickness dimension is 10 μm. In this case, if the cured product is applied to the sealing material 5 in the organic EL light-emitting device 1, the efficiency of extracting light that is transmitted through the sealing material 5 and emitted to the outside can be particularly improved. The light transmittance of such a cured product can also be achieved by the composition of the composition (X) described in detail below.
Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be described in more detail.
1. Structure of organic EL light emitting device
First, the structure of the organic EL light-emitting device 1 will be described. The organic EL light-emitting device 1 includes an organic EL element 4 and a sealing material 5 covering the organic EL element 4. The sealing material 5 may cover the organic EL element 4 in a state of being in direct contact with the organic EL element 4, or may cover the organic EL element 4 with some layers interposed between the sealing material 5 and the organic EL element 4. Note that EL is an abbreviation for electroluminescence. In addition, the organic EL element 4 is also referred to as an organic light emitting diode.
A first example of the structure of the organic EL light-emitting device 1 is described with reference to fig. 1. The organic EL light-emitting device 1 is of a top emission type. The organic EL light-emitting device 1 includes a support substrate 2, a transparent substrate 3 facing the support substrate 2 with a space therebetween, an organic EL element 4 located on a surface of the support substrate 2 facing the transparent substrate 3, and a sealing material 5 filled between the support substrate 2 and the transparent substrate 3. In the first example, the organic EL light-emitting device 1 includes the passivation layer 6 covering the surface of the support substrate 2 facing the transparent substrate 3 and the organic EL element 4. That is, the passivation layer 6 is interposed between the organic EL element 4 and the sealing material 5 covering the organic EL element 4.
The support substrate 2 is made of, for example, a resin material, but is not limited thereto. The transparent substrate 3 is made of a material having translucency. The transparent substrate 3 is, for example, a glass substrate or a transparent resin substrate. The organic EL element 4 includes, for example, a pair of electrodes and an organic light-emitting layer located between the electrodes. The organic light-emitting layer includes, for example, a hole injection layer, a hole transport layer, an organic light-emitting layer, and an electron transport layer, and these layers are stacked in this order. Although only one organic EL element 4 is shown in fig. 1, the organic EL light-emitting device 1 may include a plurality of organic EL elements 4, and the plurality of organic EL elements 4 may be arrayed on the support substrate 2. The passivation layer 6 is preferably made of silicon nitride or silicon oxide.
A second example of the structure of the organic EL light-emitting device 1 is described with reference to fig. 2. The same reference numerals as in fig. 1 are given to elements common to the first example shown in fig. 1, and detailed description thereof is omitted as appropriate. The organic EL light-emitting device 1 shown in fig. 2 is also of a top emission type. The organic EL light-emitting device 1 includes a support substrate 2, a transparent substrate 3 facing the support substrate 2 with a space therebetween, an organic EL element 4 located on a surface of the support substrate 2 facing the transparent substrate 3, and a sealing material 5 covering the organic EL element 4.
The organic EL element 4 includes, for example, a pair of electrodes 41 and 43 and an organic light-emitting layer 42 located between the electrodes 41 and 43, as in the case of the first example. The organic light-emitting layer 42 includes, for example, a hole injection layer 421, a hole transport layer 422, an organic light-emitting layer 423, and an electron transport layer 424, and these layers are stacked in this order.
The organic EL light-emitting device 1 includes a plurality of organic EL elements 4, and the plurality of organic EL elements 4 form an array 9 (hereinafter referred to as an element array 9) on the support substrate 2. The element array 9 further includes partition walls 7. The partition walls 7 are provided on the support substrate 2 to partition the adjacent two organic EL elements 4. The partition walls 7 are formed by molding a photosensitive resin material by photolithography, for example. The element array 9 further includes a connection wiring 8 for electrically connecting the electrode 43 of the adjacent organic EL element 4 and the electron transport layer 424 to each other. The connection wiring 8 is provided on the partition wall 7.
The organic EL light-emitting device 1 further includes a passivation layer 6 covering the organic EL element 4. The passivation layer 6 is preferably made of silicon nitride or silicon oxide. The passivation layer 6 includes a first passivation layer 61 and a second passivation layer 62. The first passivation layer 61 covers the element array 9 in a state of being in direct contact with the element array 9, thereby covering the organic EL elements 4. The second passivation layer 62 is disposed at a position opposite to the element array 9 with respect to the first passivation layer 61, and a space is provided between the second passivation layer 62 and the first passivation layer 61. The sealing material 5 is filled between the first passivation layer 61 and the second passivation layer 62. That is, the first passivation layer 61 is interposed between the organic EL element 4 and the sealing material 5 covering the organic EL element 4.
Further, the second sealing material 52 is filled between the second passivation layer 62 and the transparent substrate 3. The second sealing member 52 is made of, for example, a transparent resin material. The material of the second sealing material 52 is not particularly limited. The material of the second sealing member 52 may be the same as or different from that of the sealing member 5.
The sealing material 5 in the organic EL light-emitting device 1 having the above-described exemplary structure can be produced from the ultraviolet-curable resin composition of the present embodiment. That is, the ultraviolet curable resin composition is used to produce the sealing material 5 for the organic EL element 4. In other words, the ultraviolet-curable resin composition is preferably a composition for producing a sealing material, a composition for sealing an organic EL element, or a composition for producing an organic EL light-emitting device.
2. Ultraviolet-curable resin composition
The ultraviolet-curable resin composition (hereinafter, also referred to as composition (X)) of the present embodiment will be described.
As described above, the composition (X) contains the acrylic compound (a) and the photopolymerization initiator (B). When the composition (X) is irradiated with ultraviolet light, the photopolymerization initiator (B) initiates a photo radical polymerization reaction to cure the acrylic compound (a), whereby a cured product can be produced. The ingredients of composition (X) will be explained in more detail hereinafter.
As described above, the composition (X) contains the acrylic compound (a). The acrylic compound (a) has one or more (meth) acryloyl groups in one molecule. In addition, "(meth) acrylic acid" means at least one of "acrylic acid" and "methacrylic acid".
The viscosity at 25 ℃ of the whole of the acrylic compound (A) is preferably 50 mPas or less. In this case, the acrylic compound (a) can make the composition (X) particularly low in viscosity. The viscosity of the entire acrylic compound (a) is more preferably 30mPa · s or less, still more preferably 25mPa · s or less, and particularly preferably 20mPa · s or less. The viscosity of the entire acrylic compound (a) is, for example, 3mPa · s or more.
The viscosity of the whole acrylic compound (A) at 40 ℃ is preferably 50 mPas or less. In this case, the acrylic compound (a) can particularly reduce the viscosity of the composition (X) when heated. The viscosity of the whole of the acrylic compound (a) is more preferably 30mPa · s or less, still more preferably 25mPa · s or less, and particularly preferably 20mPa · s or less. The viscosity of the entire acrylic compound (a) is, for example, 3mPa · s or more.
The compounds that the acrylic compound (A) may contain are explained.
As described above, the acrylic compound (a) contains the acrylic compound (a1) having a structure represented by formula (1) and a boiling point of 270 ℃ or higher. In other words, the acrylic compound (a) contains the acrylic compound (a1), and the acrylic compound (a1) is composed of only at least one compound having a boiling point of 270 ℃ or higher among compounds having a structure represented by formula (1).
Since the boiling point of the acrylic compound (a1) is 270 ℃ or higher, the acrylic compound (a1) is less likely to volatilize from the composition (X) during storage of the composition (X) and when the composition (X) is heated. Therefore, the storage stability of the composition (X) is not easily impaired. Even if the acrylic compound (a1) remains unreacted in the cured product of the composition (X) and in the sealing material 5, outgassing from the cured product and the sealing material 5 due to the acrylic compound (a1) is less likely to occur. Therefore, voids due to outgassing are less likely to be generated in the organic EL light-emitting device 1. If there are voids in the organic EL light-emitting device 1, moisture may reach the organic EL element 4 through the voids, but if voids are not easily generated, moisture does not easily reach the organic EL element 4, and thus the organic EL element 4 is not easily deteriorated by moisture. The boiling point is a boiling point at normal pressure obtained by converting a boiling point under reduced pressure, and is obtained, for example, by a method shown in Science of Petroleum, vol.ii.p.1281 (1938). The boiling point of the acrylic compound (a1) is more preferably 280 ℃.
Further, the acrylic compound (A1) has a structure represented by the formula (1), particularly R of the formula (1)3The acrylic compound (a1) has a carbon number of 3 or more, and thus the affinity of the sealing material 5 for water is not easily improved. Therefore, moisture is less likely to enter the organic EL element through the sealing material 5. R3The number of carbon atoms of (2) is, for example, 3 to 15. Further, the acrylic compound (a1) having the structure represented by formula (1) and particularly having two (meth) acryloyl groups in one molecule can increase the glass transition temperature of the cured product, and therefore, the heat resistance of the cured product and the sealing material 5 can be improved. In addition, n in formula (1) is, for example, an integer of 1 to 12.
The percentage of the acrylic compound (a1) to the acrylic compound (a) is 50% by mass or more. Therefore, the storage stability of the composition (X) can be effectively improved, the outgas generated from the sealing material 5 can be effectively reduced, and the affinity of the sealing material 5 for water is particularly not easily improved. The percentage of the acrylic compound (a1) to the acrylic compound (a) is, for example, 100 mass% or less, or 95 mass% or less, preferably 80 mass% or less.
The viscosity of the acrylic compound (A1) at 25 ℃ is preferably 25 mPas or less. In this case, the acrylic compound (a1) can reduce the viscosity of the composition (X). The viscosity of the acrylic compound (A1) at 25 ℃ is more preferably 25 mPas or less, still more preferably 20 mPas or less, and particularly preferably 15 mPas or less. The viscosity of the acrylic compound (a1) at 25 ℃ is, for example, 1mPa · s or more, preferably 3mPa · s or more, and more preferably 5mPa · s or more.

R3The polymer may be linear or branched. In particular, the di (meth) acrylate of the alkylene glycol preferably contains at least one compound selected from the group consisting of 1, 4-butanediol diacrylate, 1, 3-butanediol diacrylate, neopentyl glycol diacrylate, 1, 6-hexanediol diacrylate, 1, 9-nonanediol diacrylate, 1, 10-decanediol diacrylate, 1, 4-butanediol dimethacrylate, 1, 3-butanediol dimethacrylate, neopentyl glycol dimethacrylate, 1, 6-hexanediol dimethacrylate, 1, 9-nonanediol dimethacrylate, 1, 10-decanediol dimethacrylate and 1, 12-dodecanediol dimethacrylate. The di (meth) acrylate of the alkylene glycol preferably contains a monomer selected from the group consisting of SR213, SR 195, SR212, SR247, SR238, 9-A, Sartomer, V230, HDDA, 1, 6HX-A, V260, 1, 9-ND-A, CD595, S595, and CD595at least one compound selected from among product No. SR214NS manufactured by artomer, product No. BD manufactured by new Zhongmura chemical industry, product No. SR297 manufactured by Sartomer, product No. SR248 manufactured by Sartomer, product No. LIGHT ESTER NP manufactured by Co-Roche chemical industry, product No. SR239NS manufactured by Sartomer, product No. LIGHT ESTER 1, 6HX manufactured by Co-Roche chemical industry, product No. HD-N manufactured by New Zhongmura chemical industry, product No. LIGHT ESTER 1, 9ND manufactured by Co-Roche chemical industry, product No. NOD-N manufactured by New Zhongmura chemical industry, product No. LIGHT ESTER 1, 10DC manufactured by Co-Roche chemical industry, product No. DOD-N manufactured by New Zhongmura chemical industry, and product No. SR262 manufactured by Sartomer.
The di (meth) acrylate of a polyalkylene glycol is a compound of formula (1) wherein n is 2 or more. n is, for example, 2 to 10, preferably 2 to 7, more preferably 2 to 6, and still more preferably 2 to 3. R3The number of carbon atoms of (B) is, for example, 2 to 5. The larger the number of carbon atoms, the higher the hydrophobicity of the cured product and the sealing material 5, and the less likely the moisture penetrates through the sealing material 5. The polyalkylene glycol di (meth) acrylate particularly preferably contains at least one compound selected from the group consisting of diethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate, hexaethylene glycol dimethacrylate, dipropylene glycol diacrylate, tripropylene glycol dimethacrylate and tetramethylene glycol diacrylate.

In this case, the storage stability of the composition (X) is particularly less likely to be impaired, and outgassing from the cured product and the sealing material 5 is particularly less likely to occur.

The acrylic compound (a) may further contain a polyfunctional acrylic compound (a2) in addition to the acrylic compound (a 1). The polyfunctional acrylic compound (a2) can increase the glass transition temperature of the cured product, and therefore can improve the heat resistance of the cured product and the sealing material 5. The polyfunctional acrylic compound (a2) contains, for example, polyethylene glycol di (meth) acrylate.
The polyfunctional acrylic compound (a2) is preferably a compound (a21) having three or more (meth) acryloyl groups in one molecule. That is, the acrylic compound (a) preferably contains the compound (a 21). In this case, the compound (a21) may contain, for example, at least one selected from trimethylolpropane triacrylate and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate. When the acrylic compound (a) contains the compound (a21), the compound (a21) can particularly increase the glass transition temperature of the cured product, and therefore can particularly improve the heat resistance of the cured product and the sealing material 5.

In addition, if the compound (a21) is 25% by mass or less, the viscosity of the composition (X) is less likely to increase due to the compound (a 21). If the percentage of the compound (a21) is 20% by mass or less, the viscosity of the composition (X) is particularly less likely to increase.
The acrylic compound (a) may further contain a monofunctional acrylic compound (a3) having only one (meth) acryloyl group in one molecule.

The percentage of the monofunctional acrylic compound (a3) is more preferably 5% by mass or more. If the percentage of the monofunctional acrylic compound (A3) is 70% by mass or less, outgassing from the composition (X) and the cured product due to the monofunctional acrylic compound (A3) is less likely to occur. Further, if the amount of the monofunctional acrylic compound (a3) is 70% by mass or less, the amount of the polyfunctional component in the acrylic compound (a) can be ensured, and therefore, the heat resistance of the cured product and the sealing material 5 can be particularly improved by the polyfunctional component.

In this case, the viscosity of the composition (X) can be easily reduced, and the sealing material 5 made of the composition (X) can be easily provided with adhesion to a member made of an inorganic material such as the passivation layer 6. Further, the compound (a31) has low viscosity but is not volatile. Therefore, even when the composition (X) is stored, the composition (X) is less likely to undergo a change in composition due to volatilization of the monofunctional acrylic compound (a 3).

When the alkyl group is a hexyl group, the hexyl group may be a tert-hexyl group, an n-hexyl group, or a sec-hexyl group.

Particularly preferably in R1~R11In (1), only R6Is alkyl or-R12-OH and each of the others is H. In this case, the compound represented by formula (10) can have good reactivity, and particularly, it is easy to impart adhesion to the sealing material 5 with respect to a member made of an inorganic material. This is considered to be because the cyclohexane ring in the compound represented by the formula (10) has a boat-shaped three-dimensional conformation, and the bulky alkyl group or-R at the 4-position12the-OH is easily located at approximately the equatorial position. It is considered that the reactivity of the (meth) acryloyl group in the compound represented by formula (10) can be improved by the compound represented by formula (10) having such a structure. In addition, if the compound represented by formula (10) has such a structure, the compound represented by formula (10) can increase the free volume in the sealing material 5. Therefore, it is considered that the interface free energy between the sealing material 5 and the inorganic material member is likely to be small, and thus the sealing material 5 and the inorganic material portion are likely to be smallThe adhesiveness of the material is easily increased. Alkyl or-R12The larger the-OH volume, the alkyl group or-R12The easier the-OH is at approximately the equatorial position. From this viewpoint, alkyl or-R12The more the number of carbon atoms of-OH is, the more preferable is an alkyl group or-R12-OH has a branched chain. For example, preferably alkyl or-R12-OH is tert-butyl.
In the formula (10), it is also preferable that an alkyl group or-R is bonded to only the 3-and 5-positions of the cyclohexane ring, respectively12-OH.

In this case, the compound represented by formula (10) can also have good reactivity, and particularly, it is easy to impart adhesion to the sealing material 5 with respect to a member made of an inorganic material. This is considered to be because the cyclohexane ring in the compound represented by the formula (10) has a boat-shaped three-dimensional conformation, and the 3-position and 5-position each have a bulky alkyl group or-R12the-OH is easily located at approximately the equatorial position. Therefore, it is considered that an alkyl group or-R is bonded to only the 4-position of the cyclohexane ring12Similarly to the case of — OH, the reactivity of the (meth) acryloyl group in the compound represented by formula (10) is improved, and the adhesion between the sealing material 5 and the member made of an inorganic material is likely to be increased. Alkyl or-R12The larger the-OH volume, the alkyl group or-R12The easier the-OH is at approximately the equatorial position. From this viewpoint, alkyl or-R12The more the number of carbon atoms of-OH is, the more preferable is an alkyl group or-R12-OH has a branched chain. For example, preferably alkyl or-R12-OH is tert-butyl.

In this case, the compound represented by formula (10) can have a particularly low viscosity, and therefore, the composition (X) can have a particularly low viscosity. Therefore, the composition (X) is particularly easily molded by an ink jet method.

In this case, it is particularly easy to lower the viscosity of the composition (X), to increase the glass transition temperature of the sealing material 5, and to improve the adhesion between the sealing material 5 and the inorganic material member. Further, since the compound represented by formula (11) and the compound represented by formula (12) are less likely to volatilize, the storage stability of the composition (X) is likely to be improved.

The dispersant (E) is a surfactant that can be adsorbed to the particles. The dispersant (E) has an adsorption group (also commonly referred to as an anchor) that can be adsorbed to a particle, and a molecular skeleton (also commonly referred to as a tail) that is adsorbed to the particle by the adsorption group and is attached to the particle.

3. Method for producing sealing material and method for producing organic EL light-emitting device
A method for producing the sealing material 5 using the composition (X) and a method for producing the organic EL light-emitting device 1 will be described.
In the present embodiment, it is preferable that the sealing material 5 is prepared by molding the composition (X) by an ink jet method and then curing the composition (X) by irradiating it with ultraviolet light. In the present embodiment, the composition (X) can be applied by an ink jet method to be molded.
When the composition (X) is applied by an ink jet method, if the composition (X) has a sufficiently low viscosity at room temperature, for example, a viscosity of 30mPa · s or less, particularly 15mPa · s or less at 25 ℃, the composition (X) can be applied by an ink jet method without heating and molded.
In the case where the composition (X) has a property of being reduced in viscosity by heating, the composition (X) may be applied by an ink jet method after heating the composition (X) to be molded. When the viscosity of the composition (X) at 40 ℃ is 30 mPas or less, particularly 15 mPas or less, the viscosity of the composition (X) can be reduced by heating the composition (X) only slightly, and the composition (X) having a reduced viscosity can be discharged by an ink jet method. The heating temperature of the composition (X) is, for example, 20 ℃ or more and 50 ℃ or less.
More specifically, for example, the support substrate 2 is first prepared. For example, partition walls 7 are formed on one surface of the support substrate 2 by photolithography using a photosensitive resin material. Next, a plurality of organic EL elements 4 are provided on one surface of the support substrate 2. The organic EL element 4 can be produced by an appropriate method such as a vapor deposition method or a coating method. The organic EL element 4 is particularly preferably produced by an application method such as an ink jet method. Thereby, the element array 9 is produced on the support substrate 2.
Next, a first passivation layer 61 is provided on the element array 9. The first passivation layer 61 can be formed by an evaporation method such as a plasma CVD method.
Next, the composition (X) is molded on the first passivation layer 61 by, for example, an ink-jet method, thereby producing a coating film. If the ink jet method is applied to both the formation of the organic EL element 4 and the application of the composition (X), the production efficiency of the organic EL light-emitting device 1 can be particularly improved. Next, the coating film is irradiated with ultraviolet rays and cured to produce the sealing material 5. The thickness of the sealing material 5 is, for example, 5 μm or more and 50 μm or less.
