Description

The present invention relates to a color material dispersion, a colored resin composition (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “resist”), a color filter, and a liquid crystal display device. Specifically, pixels with high density and low film thickness can be uniformly formed, there is little remaining in the non-image area after development, high pattern adhesion at development, and at the tip of the die lip when applied by die coating A color material dispersion in which the generation of dry aggregates is suppressed, a colored resin composition using the color material dispersion, a color filter in which pixels are formed using the color resin composition, and the color filter are provided. The present invention relates to a liquid crystal display device. Furthermore, when using the resin of this invention as a binder, it is related also with the composition which does not contain a color material and creates a photospacer, an overcoat, etc.

Conventionally, pigment dispersion methods, dyeing methods, electrodeposition methods, and printing methods are known as methods for producing color filters used in liquid crystal display devices and the like. Among these, from the viewpoint of spectral characteristics, durability, pattern shape, accuracy, etc., a pigment dispersion method having excellent characteristics on average is most widely adopted.
In recent years, the trend of technological innovation has been rapid, and higher transmission and higher density have been required for color filters. In order to form a high-concentration color filter, it was necessary to increase the colorant concentration in the colored resin composition to be used. On the other hand, components that contribute to image forming properties such as photosensitivity, solubility, and curability As a result, the image forming performance inherently lost is lost. That is, for example, when attempting to reduce the pixel thickness (reducing the film thickness) by increasing the density, the surface smoothness of the pixel decreases due to a decrease in the curability, causing a liquid crystal alignment defect. Further, when the solubility is lowered, the undissolved product of the colored resin composition in the non-image area after development tends to remain. Furthermore, when the undissolved material of the colored resin composition remains on the non-pixel portion on the substrate, the obtained color filter causes a decrease in transmittance and contrast, and when it remains on the pattern edge portion, The situation has an effect on subsequent processes, such as peeling and deterioration of sealing properties in the liquid crystal cell forming process.

In order to solve these problems, an attempt has been made to maintain the image formability while keeping the colorant concentration high by using a dispersant having both a dispersing function and a binder function (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). ).
On the other hand, various new technologies have been developed with respect to a method for manufacturing a color filter. Among the pixel forming processes, for example, with respect to the resist coating process, it has been the mainstream to drop the resist on the center of the substrate and make it uniform by spin coating. However, as the size of the substrate increases, the amount of resist used increases, and restrictions on the spin coater equipment (motor capability, etc.) are increasing. Some have been put to practical use.

However, when only a dispersant having both a dispersing function and a binder function is used, the effect of each is insufficient compared to the conventional combination of a dispersing agent and a binder resin, particularly in a resist having a high colorant concentration. It was. For this reason, after all, we had to study a colorant dispersion using a dispersant having both a dispersing function and a binder function and a conventional dispersant, and a colored resin composition using a binder resin together, In order to obtain a stable dispersion by combining a typical dispersant or binder resin, the amount of these added must be increased.
In addition, when a polymer dispersant having both the above dispersing function and binder function is used,

Since the performance such as developability, solubility, and curability required for the binder resin to be reduced is reduced, it has been found that it is necessary to reduce the addition amount of the polymer dispersant itself having both the above-mentioned dispersion function and binder function. It was.

  The technique of applying the resist by the die coating method is intermittent application in the case of single-wafer application such as a color filter, and the tip of the die lip is repeatedly wetted and dried. When the color resist or black resist in which a high concentration of pigment is dispersed is dried at the tip of the die lip, the pigment concentration increases abruptly, which may cause agglomeration of the pigment. These agglomerates adhere to the tip of the die lip, peel off from the tip of the lip when the resist is discharged again, and move onto the substrate, and are not easily removed in the subsequent steps, and remain on the substrate until the end. Such an agglomerate becomes a pixel defect of the color filter and causes a quality defect. If this defective phenomenon occurs frequently, the product yield will be lowered, and this is one of the phenomena that must be avoided. For this reason, there has been a case where the generation of foreign matter due to dry aggregation at the tip of the die lip cannot be sufficiently suppressed during coating by the die coating method.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its object is as follows.
(1) When applied on the substrate, the undissolved matter of the colored resin composition is hardly left in the non-image area on the substrate, has excellent adhesion to the substrate, and has image forming ability such as curability.

To provide.
(2) When applied on the substrate, the undissolved matter of the colored resin composition is hardly left in the non-image area on the substrate, and the adhesion to the substrate is excellent, and image forming ability such as curability is provided. A colored resin composition capable of producing a color filter having a high concentration and a low film thickness without reduction, and capable of producing a color filter at a high yield by suppressing dry aggregation at the tip of the die lip when applied by die coating. To provide.
(3) To provide a high-quality color filter having a high concentration and a low film thickness, in which foreign matter caused by undissolved colored resin composition and dry aggregation during die coating does not remain in non-pixel portions on a substrate. thing.
(4) To provide a high-quality liquid crystal display device using the color filter substrate according to (3).

As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventors have been able to obtain a stable color material dispersion with a small amount of dispersant added to the color material by using a dispersant having a specific structure. By using the liquid, the image forming ability such as curability is not deteriorated, the undissolved material in the non-image area on the substrate does not remain, the adhesiveness with the substrate is excellent, and a high-density color pixel is obtained. The inventors have found that a colored resin composition can be obtained that can be uniformly formed and that suppresses the generation of dry agglomerates at the tip of the die lip when applied by die coating.

As the light-shielding metal material, chromium compounds such as metal chromium, chromium oxide and chromium nitride, nickel and tungsten alloy, etc. are used, and these may be laminated in a plurality of layers.

  These metal light shielding films are generally formed by a sputtering method, and after forming a desired pattern in a film shape with a positive photoresist, ceric ammonium nitrate, perchloric acid and / or nitric acid are added to chromium. Other materials are etched using an etchant according to the material, and finally a positive photoresist is stripped with a dedicated stripper to form a black matrix. be able to.

  In this case, first, a thin film of the metal or metal / metal oxide is formed on the transparent substrate by vapor deposition or sputtering. Next, after forming a coating film of the colored composition on the thin film, the coating film is exposed and developed using a photomask having a repetitive pattern such as a stripe, a mosaic, and a triangle to form a resist image. Thereafter, this coating film can be etched to form a black matrix.

  On the other hand, when the black composition for black matrix is used, a black matrix is formed using a coloring composition containing a black color material.

[3-3-1] Formation of coating film
After applying a coloring composition containing a color material of one of red, green, and blue on a transparent substrate provided with a black matrix and drying, this photomask is overlaid on the formed coating film. Then, image exposure, development, and heat curing or photocuring as necessary are performed to form a pixel image, and a colored layer of the pixel image is created.
