Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device when a seal portion of the liquid crystal display device is formed using a photocurable resin. is there. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a thermosetting epoxy resin has been used for a seal portion of a liquid crystal display device. However, in order to cure the sealing portion, a high temperature of 150 ° C. or more and a curing time of at least several hours are required. Was needed. Also, to improve the above,
Studies have been conducted on photo-curable resins, but when the resin is cured, distortion remains at the boundary between the glass substrate and the seal portion, resulting in insufficient adhesion and insufficient adhesion between the upper substrate and the lower substrate. In a durability test such as heat resistance and humidity resistance, there was a problem that the seal portion was peeled off or the orientation was disturbed from around the seal portion. [0003] Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to improve the adhesion between the sealing material and the glass substrate and to increase the adhesive force by alleviating distortion during curing of the photocurable resin. ,
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device that improves reliability in a durability test. According to a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device of the present invention, a method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device in which a pair of substrates are opposed to each other via a seal portion is provided. Arranging a photo-curable resin to be the seal portion, irradiating the seal portion made of the photo-curable resin with light without curing the photo-curable resin, and combining the one substrate with facing the other substrate; Hardening the seal portion by doing, and after hardening the seal portion, the liquid crystal display device is kept in a temperature range of 100 ° C. to 150 ° C. for 30 minutes to 30 minutes.
Performing a one-hour baking process. [0005] The after-bake treatment is carried out at 100
It is carried out in a temperature range of from 150C to 150C, for from 30 minutes to 1 hour. That is, the present invention provides an after bake
In order to alleviate the strain generated between the photocurable resin and the glass substrate, the adhesive strength between the resin and the glass substrate is increased, and a seal portion having good adhesion between the resin and the glass substrate is obtained. Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples. Embodiment 1 In a liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. 1, a photocurable resin is applied to one of the glass substrates 1 and the spacers 6 are uniformly dispersed on the other glass substrate 1 facing the same. And combine. Ultraviolet rays of about 3000 mJ / cm 2 were irradiated to form the seal portion 4. Further, after-baking was performed in an oven at 100 ° C. for 30 minutes, and after cooling, liquid crystal was sealed from a sealing hole provided in advance and sealed with a sealant to obtain a liquid crystal display device. The liquid crystal display device was subjected to a temperature resistance test (60 ° C.-90% RH, 500 H), but the orientation of the liquid crystal was not disturbed. In addition, heat resistance test (125 ° C, 50
0H), the sealing portion did not peel off, and no bubbles were generated in the liquid crystal layer. Example 2 A seal portion 4 was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 in the liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. Furthermore, after-baking is performed in an oven at 150 ° C. for 30 minutes, and after cooling,
Liquid crystal was sealed from a sealing hole provided in advance, and sealed with a sealant to obtain a liquid crystal display device. Thereafter, a durability test similar to that of Example 1 was performed, but no disorder of the orientation, peeling of the sealing portion, and generation of bubbles in the liquid crystal layer were found. Comparative Example 1 A seal portion 4 was formed in the same manner as in Example 1 in a liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. Further, after-baking was performed in an oven at 80 ° C. for 30 minutes, and after cooling, liquid crystal was sealed through a sealing hole provided in advance and sealed with a sealant to obtain a liquid crystal display device. The liquid crystal display device;
A heat resistance test (125 ° C., 500H) was performed, but the seal portion was peeled off. Comparative Example 2 In the liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. 1, a seal portion 4 was formed in the same manner as in Example 1. Furthermore, after-baking is performed in an oven at 170 ° C. for 30 minutes, and after cooling,
Liquid crystal was sealed from a sealing hole provided in advance, and sealed with a sealant to obtain a liquid crystal display device. The liquid crystal display was subjected to a heat resistance test (125 ° C., 500 H), and bubbles were generated in the liquid crystal layer. REFERENCE EXAMPLE In a liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. 1, a photocurable resin is applied to one of the glass substrates 1 and spacers 6 are uniformly dispersed on the other glass substrate 1 facing the same. ,combine. This was pre-baked in a 60 ° C. oven for 30 minutes and taken out.
Irradiation was performed at 000 mJ / cm 2 to form a seal portion 4. Next, liquid crystal was sealed through a sealing hole provided in advance, and sealed with a sealing agent to obtain a liquid crystal display device. Thereafter, a durability test was carried out in the same manner as in Example 1. However, there was no disorder in the orientation, the sealing portion peeled off, and no bubbles were generated in the liquid crystal layer. Comparative Example 3 In the liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. 1, when the prebaking conditions in Example 5 were set to 100 ° C. for 30 minutes, the sealant flowed out, and a clean seal portion could not be formed. Comparative Example 4 In the liquid crystal display device configured as shown in FIG. 1, the prebaking conditions in the example were set at 40 ° C. for 30 minutes, and thereafter, a liquid crystal display device was obtained. When the liquid crystal display device was subjected to a moisture resistance test (60 ° C.-90% RH, 500 H), poor orientation occurred around the seal portion. Table 2 shows the above results. [Table 1] As described above, according to the present invention, there is provided a method for curing a sealing member of a liquid crystal display device using a photocurable resin for a sealing portion of the liquid crystal display device.
After irradiating the sealing member with ultraviolet rays and curing the sealing member, the sealing member is further cooled within a temperature range of 100 ° C. to 150 ° C.
By adding the step of performing the baking treatment for 0 minute to 1 hour, distortion between the sealing member and the glass substrate can be reduced, so that the adhesion between the sealing material and the glass substrate is increased, and the adhesive force is increased. be able to. Further, by forming an alignment film so as not to overlap the seal portions provided on the inner surfaces of the pair of substrates in a plane, the alignment between the substrate and the photo-curable resin provided in the subsequent steps is performed. Since no film is interposed, the adhesion between the photocurable resin and the substrate can be further improved, the adhesive force of the seal portion is increased, and the reliability in durability is improved.
