Description

Negative liquid crystal composition and application thereof
The present invention is a division of the prior invention patent with the application number 201910504856.5 and the application date is 2019.06.12. This division is written based on examples 3 and 4 of the parent specification.
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of liquid crystal materials, in particular to a liquid crystal composition and application thereof.
Background
In the 60 s of the 20 th century, RCA corporation discovered for the first time that the light transmission mode of liquid crystals was changed by electric stimulation, and then after the liquid crystal display technology was released by applying this property, liquid crystals gradually attracted high attention and rapidly developed to various fields. In 1966, duPont had synthesized Kevlar fibers using aramid liquid crystals, and the liquid crystal materials began the industrialization process. Through rapid development for decades, the liquid crystal material has been widely applied to various fields such as display technology, optical storage equipment, solar cells and the like by virtue of the special properties, and the research scope is more over the fields such as chemistry, biology, information science and the like, so that the liquid crystal material becomes one of the favored and indispensable novel materials in the current society.
Liquid crystal displays can be divided into passive matrix (also called passive matrix or simple matrix) and active matrix (also called active matrix) driving methods. Among them, the active matrix lcd is to change the arrangement of liquid crystal compounds by applying a voltage, so as to change the light emission intensity of the backlight source to form an image, and is increasingly popular due to its characteristics of high resolution, high contrast, low power, thin surface and light weight. Active matrix liquid crystal displays can be classified into two types according to active devices: a MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) or other diode on a silicon chip as a substrate; among them, the most rapidly developed thin film transistor (Thin Film Transistor-TFT) is a thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) which has been well applied to display devices such as mobile phones, computers, liquid crystal televisions, cameras, etc., and is the mainstream product of the liquid crystal market.
With the continuous development of TFT-LCDs, a wide viewing angle mode has become a target pursued in the industry, and currently, the main wide viewing angle technologies mainly include VA vertical alignment technology, IPS in-plane switching technology, FFS fringe field switching technology, and the like, which all require higher light transmittance and smaller color shift. For the IPS in-plane switching technology and FFS fringe field switching technology, since an in-plane electric field is generated between electrodes when a voltage is applied, light transmission in the region is limited, which increases power consumption and affects display effects, while the negative type liquid crystal compound exhibits superior color shift and is affected by a vertical electric field, and exhibits higher light transmittance than the positive type material, and thus is widely used. However, the viscosity of the general negative liquid crystal material in the market is generally higher, which is unfavorable for the improvement of response speed, so the development of the liquid crystal material with low viscosity and high negative dielectric constant becomes the main research direction of the current negative liquid crystal material.
With the wide application of liquid crystal displays, the requirements on the performance of the liquid crystal displays are continuously improved, and the wider working temperature, the faster response speed and the higher contrast ratio are required, so that the improvement of the performance is not separated from the improvement of the liquid crystal material.

Each independently selected from Any one of the group consisting of.
The liquid crystal compound having the general formula I is white in a pure state and is a liquid crystal compound having negative dielectric anisotropy, and the liquid crystal compound having negative dielectric constant is characterized by having a large dipole effect in a direction perpendicular to a long axis of a molecule, and thus a relatively large component of the corresponding dielectric constant in a vertical direction, that is, a high vertical dielectric constant epsilon , and thus the dielectric anisotropy Δepsilon=epsilon // exhibits a negative value. The liquid crystal molecules tend to be distributed along the direction perpendicular to the electric field due to the higher vertical dielectric constant epsilon , and the negative liquid crystal material is arranged on the horizontal plane under the fringe electric field, and the pretilt angle distribution is more uniform than that of the positive material, so that the liquid crystal material has higher light transmittance and wide viewing angle, and is particularly suitable for preparing VA, PSVA, IPS and FFS type liquid crystal materials with high transmittance and wide viewing angle; in addition, the addition of the liquid crystal compound with negative dielectric constant can improve the bending elastic coefficient K 33 of the system, so that the light transmittance and contrast ratio of the whole system can be improved, the energy conservation is facilitated, the image display quality can be improved, and the performance requirement of liquid crystal display can be better met.
The liquid-crystalline compounds of the general formula II are white in the pure state and have a relatively high value of the optical anisotropy Δn and a relatively broad nematic temperature range. Generally, when light enters an anisotropic material, it is generally divided into two waves having vibration directions perpendicular to each other and different propagation speeds, and the two waves have two refractive rays, respectively, to form so-called birefringence, and the refractive index of the material for parallel light and for perpendicular light is obtained by using a polarizer, and the difference is taken as the optical anisotropy Δn. And the refractive index is closely related to the arrangement of charges, the more compact the arrangement of charges, the greater the refractive index. The compound of the general formula II is a conjugated terphenyl compound, the conjugated structure of the benzene ring can be hybridized with the lone pair electrons carried by the O atoms of the adjacent tail chains to form larger electron cloud overlap, and the conjugated structure is larger than that of a pure terphenyl compound, so that the conjugated structure has a larger refractive index, and the nematic phase temperature range of liquid crystal molecules is increased. In LCD display, the value of the optical path difference d·Δn is preset, the higher the Δn value is, the lower the d value is, and the response speed is inversely proportional to the d value, so that a high Δn is advantageous for manufacturing a fast-response liquid crystal display device.
The liquid crystal compound with the general formula III is white or transparent colloid in a pure substance state, is a liquid crystal compound with weak polarity or nonpolar, and is characterized by lower rotational viscosity and lower melting point, so that the liquid crystal compound with the general formula III has better intersolubility and improves the viscosity and low-temperature reliability of liquid crystal materials when being mixed with other liquid crystal compounds.
Therefore, the liquid crystal compound of the general formula I and the liquid crystal compound of the general formula II and the general formula III are combined together, so that the advantage of high negative dielectric constant of the negative liquid crystal material can be maintained, and the defects of the negative liquid crystal material in refractive index, viscosity and liquid crystal width can be improved, so that the liquid crystal material with lower driving voltage, wider working temperature and faster response speed can be obtained.
Furthermore, it should be clear to a person skilled in the art that the above alkyl groups include not only straight chain alkyl groups but also corresponding branched chain alkyl groups.
In order to obtain a more suitable liquid crystal width, a higher dielectric anisotropy value, a smaller rotational viscosity and a suitable elastic coefficient K, which are more advantageous for improving the response speed of the liquid crystal material, reducing the threshold voltage and improving the intersolubility of the liquid crystal material, in a preferred embodiment of the present application, the liquid crystal compound having a negative dielectric constant of the general formula I is a negative polarity liquid crystal compound having the formulas I1 to I34, and the liquid crystal compound having a low rotational viscosity of the general formula III is preferably a liquid crystal compound having the formulas III1 to III 3.

From the above examples, it can be found that the combination of the general formula I, the general formula II and the general formula III is advantageous to form a liquid crystal composition having a high optical anisotropy value and a high definition bright point, and can improve the viscosity of the system, adjust the dielectric constant value of the system, and improve the response speed and increase the upper limit temperature of the liquid crystal composition. When the liquid crystal composition composed of the general formula I, the general formula II and the general formula III is mixed with other liquid crystal compounds of different types, a liquid crystal mixture with proper optical anisotropy, dielectric anisotropy, high definition bright point, lower viscosity and higher elastic coefficient can be obtained, especially when III1 is more preferably a compound with Y 2 being propyl and Y 2' being vinyl, a liquid crystal mixture with low viscosity can be obtained, and the liquid crystal composition can be used for manufacturing a liquid crystal medium with quick response. The above measurement parameters are related to the physicochemical properties of all the liquid crystal compounds constituting the liquid crystal medium, and the liquid crystal composition of the present invention is mainly used for adjusting the liquid crystal parameters of the system.
From the comparison of example 5 and comparative example 1 and the comparison of example 6 and comparative example 2, it was found that when the liquid crystal compound of the general formula II was combined with the general formulae I and III, a liquid crystal composition having relatively high optical anisotropy, a high clearing point, was obtained in the case of approximate dielectric anisotropy, i.e., a liquid crystal composition having a faster response speed, a wider use temperature was obtained by combining the liquid crystal compound of the general formula I with the general formulae II and III.
