Description

Sealing agent for liquid crystal display element, vertically conductive material, and liquid crystal display element
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a sealant for a liquid crystal display element, which is excellent in storage stability, adhesiveness, and low liquid crystal contamination. The present invention also relates to a vertical conduction material and a liquid crystal display element using the sealant for a liquid crystal display element.
Background
In recent years, as a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display element such as a liquid crystal display cell, a liquid crystal dropping method called a dropping method using a sealant as disclosed in patent document 1 and patent document 2 has been used in view of shortening a tact time and optimizing a liquid crystal usage amount.
In the dropping process, first, a frame-shaped seal pattern is formed on one of two substrates with electrodes by dispensing. Next, a liquid crystal display element was fabricated by dropping a droplet of liquid crystal into a frame of a seal pattern in a state where the sealant was not cured, and then, by superposing another substrate under vacuum, curing the sealant. The dropping process is now the main stream of the method for manufacturing liquid crystal display elements.
However, in modern times, in which various mobile devices with liquid crystal panels such as mobile phones and portable game machines are used, the most important problem is miniaturization of the devices. As a method for downsizing the device, for example, a liquid crystal display portion is narrowed, and a sealing portion is arranged below a black matrix (hereinafter, also referred to as a narrow frame design).
However, since the sealant is disposed directly under the black matrix in the narrow frame design, the light irradiated when the sealant is photo-cured is blocked by the dropping process, and the light does not easily reach the inside of the sealant, and thus curing is insufficient in the conventional sealant. In this way, if the curing of the sealant is insufficient, uncured sealant components are eluted into the liquid crystal, and there is a problem in that liquid crystal contamination is likely to occur. In particular, in recent years, with the increase in polarity of liquid crystals, a further low liquid crystal contamination property has been demanded for a sealant.
In the case where it is difficult to photocure the sealant, it is considered to be cured by heating, and as a method for curing the sealant by heating, an operation of blending a thermosetting agent into the sealant is performed. However, when a thermosetting agent having high reactivity is used to improve curability and adhesiveness of the sealant, the storage stability of the resulting sealant may be deteriorated.

The inventors have conducted intensive studies and as a result found that: the use of a thermosetting agent having a specific structure can provide a sealant for a liquid crystal display element excellent in storage stability, adhesiveness, and low liquid crystal contamination, and thus the present invention has been completed.
The sealant for a liquid crystal display element of the present invention contains a thermosetting agent.
The above-mentioned thermosetting agent contains a hydrazide compound.
The hydrazide compound has a structure represented by the above formula (1-1) and a structure represented by the above formula (1-2). Hereinafter, the hydrazide compound having the structure represented by the above formula (1-1) and the structure represented by the above formula (1-2) is also referred to as "the hydrazide compound of the present invention". By containing the hydrazide compound of the present invention, the sealant for a liquid crystal display element of the present invention is excellent in all of storage stability, adhesiveness, and low liquid crystal contamination.
The reason why the use of the hydrazide compound of the present invention gives a sealant for a liquid crystal display element excellent in all of storage stability, adhesiveness, and low liquid crystal contamination is considered as follows.
Namely, consider that: by having the structure represented by the above formula (1-1), the softening point of the hydrazide compound can be controlled, and thus the storage stability can be improved. In addition, it can be considered that: by having the structure represented by the above formula (1-2) containing a primary amino group, the adhesiveness of the resulting sealant can be improved. Furthermore, it can be considered that: by having these structures, the molecular weight of the hydrazide compound is increased, and thus elution into the liquid crystal can be suppressed.

When the proportion of the structure represented by the above formula (1-1) is 5 mol% or more, the resulting sealant for a liquid crystal display element is more excellent in storage stability. When the proportion of the structure represented by the above formula (1-1) is 95 mol% or less, the resulting sealant for a liquid crystal display element is more excellent in adhesion. The ratio of the structure represented by the above formula (1-1) is more preferably 10 mol% at the lower limit, 90 mol% at the upper limit, and 50 mol% at the upper limit.
In the hydrazide compound of the present invention, the preferable lower limit of the proportion of the structure represented by the above formula (1-2) is 5 mol%, and the preferable upper limit is 95 mol%.

The sealant for a liquid crystal display element was pre-cured by irradiation with ultraviolet rays of 100mW/cm 2 for 30 seconds using a high-pressure mercury lamp, and then heated at 120℃for 1 hour to thermally cure the sealant for a liquid crystal display element, to obtain an adhesion test piece. The end of the substrate of the obtained adhesion test piece was pressed with a metal rod having a radius of 5mm at a speed of 5mm/min, and the strength (kgf) at the time of peeling off the panel was measured, thereby calculating the adhesion force (kg/cm).
The adhesion was evaluated by marking the adhesion value as 3.5kg/cm or more as "verygood", the adhesion value as 3.0kg/cm or more and less than 3.5kg/cm as "good", the adhesion value as 2.0kg/cm or more and less than 3.0kg/cm as "delta", and the adhesion value as less than 2.0kg/cm as "X".
(Low liquid Crystal contamination (NI Point))
To the sample bottle, 0.1g of each of the sealants for liquid crystal display elements obtained in examples and comparative examples and 1g of liquid crystal (4-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl, manufactured by tokyo chemical industry Co., ltd.) were added. The sample bottle was put into an oven at 120℃for 1 hour, allowed to stand and return to 25℃and then the liquid crystal portion was taken out and filtered through a 0.2 μm filter to prepare a liquid crystal sample for evaluation. The obtained liquid crystal sample for evaluation (10 mg) was sealed in an aluminum sample pan, and the NI point was measured using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC-Q100, manufactured by TA instruments Co., ltd.) at a temperature rise rate of 5℃per minute. The liquid crystal cell sealing agent and the liquid crystal 10mg which was not in contact with each other were sealed in an aluminum sample pan, and the NI point was measured at a temperature rise rate of 5 ℃/min, and the results were regarded as a blank group.
The difference between the NI point measured using the liquid crystal sample for evaluation and the NI point of the blank group was "excellent", the difference between-3℃and-2℃was "good", the difference between-5℃and-3℃was "delta", and the difference between-5℃and-5℃was "X", and the low liquid crystal contamination was evaluated.
(Display Performance of liquid Crystal display element)
1 Part by weight of spacer particles having an average particle diameter of 5 μm (manufactured by water chemical industry Co., ltd., "Micropearl SI-H050") was dispersed in 100 parts by weight of each of the sealants for liquid crystal display elements obtained in examples and comparative examples, and the resultant mixture was filled into a syringe, and deaerated by a centrifugal deaerator (Awatron AW-1). Using a dispenser to apply the defoamed sealant for liquid crystal display element to the diameter of the nozzleThe coating is performed in a frame shape on one of 2 substrates with an alignment film and ITO under conditions of 42 μm in gap between nozzles, 100 to 400kPa in discharge pressure of a syringe, and a coating speed of 60 mm/sec. At this time, the discharge pressure was adjusted so that the line width of the sealing agent for a liquid crystal display element became about 1.5 mm. Next, fine droplets of liquid crystal (4-pentyl-4-cyanobiphenyl, manufactured by tokyo chemical industry co.) were applied dropwise to the entire inner surface of the frame of the liquid crystal display element sealant of the substrate coated with the liquid crystal display element sealant, and the other substrate was bonded under vacuum. Immediately after the bonding, the sealant for a liquid crystal display element was pre-cured by irradiating the sealant for a liquid crystal display element with ultraviolet light of 100mW/cm 2 for 30 seconds. Then, the mixture was heated at 120℃for 1 hour to effect primary curing, thereby producing a liquid crystal display element.
For each of the liquid crystal display element sealants obtained in examples and comparative examples, 3 liquid crystal display elements were produced, and for each of the obtained liquid crystal display elements, the disturbance of the liquid crystal alignment in the vicinity of the liquid crystal display element sealant immediately after the production of the liquid crystal display element was visually confirmed. The alignment disorder was determined by color unevenness of the display portion, and the display performance of the liquid crystal display element was evaluated by recording "very" when no display unevenness was observed at all in the peripheral portion of the liquid crystal display element, recording "o" when slight display unevenness was observed, recording "Δ" when clear, thicker display unevenness was present, and recording "x" when clear, thicker display unevenness was spread not only in the peripheral portion but also in the central portion.
