Description

The present invention relates to ink compositions, light conversion layers and color filters.

Conventionally, a color filter pixel portion in a display such as a liquid crystal display device uses, for example, a curable resist material containing red organic pigment particles or green organic pigment particles and an alkali-soluble resin and / or an acrylic monomer. , Has been manufactured by photolithography.

In recent years, there has been a strong demand for lower power consumption of displays, and instead of the red organic pigment particles or green organic pigment particles, luminescent nanocrystal particles such as quantum dots, quantum rods, and other inorganic phosphor particles have been strongly demanded. A method of forming a color filter pixel portion such as a red pixel and a green pixel by using the above is actively studied.

Under such circumstances, in order to eliminate the waste of the resist material as described above, it has begun to be studied to form the pixel portion of the optical conversion substrate by the inkjet method (Patent Document 1).

It is preferable in that it can be enhanced and more excellent ejection stability can be obtained.

The average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles in the ink composition is obtained by measuring with a dynamic light-scattering nanotrack particle size distribution meter and calculating the volume average diameter. Further, the average particle diameter (volume average diameter) of the light-scattering particles to be used can be obtained by measuring the particle diameter of each particle with, for example, a transmission electron microscope or a scanning electron microscope, and calculating the volume average diameter.

By the way, one of the causes of deterioration of ejection stability when forming a color filter pixel portion by an inkjet method using a conventional ink composition is considered to be aggregation of luminescent nanocrystal particles and light scattering particles. .. Therefore, it is conceivable to improve the ejection stability by refining the luminescent nanocrystal particles and the light scattering particles, reducing the content of the luminescent nanocrystal particles and the light scattering particles, and the like. In this case, the effect of reducing leakage light tends to decrease, and it is difficult to achieve both ejection stability and reduction of leakage light at a high level. On the other hand, according to the ink composition further containing the polymer dispersant, excellent ejection stability and reduction of leakage light can be achieved at a high level. The reason why such an effect is obtained is not clear, but it is because the polymer dispersant remarkably suppresses the aggregation of luminescent nanocrystal particles and light scattering particles (particularly, light scattering particles). It is inferred that.

As the curing accelerator, for example, 3-phenyl-1,1-dimethylurea can be used in addition to the above. These curing accelerators can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

The content of the curing accelerator may be 0.01 part by mass or more, and may be 0.05 part by mass or more with respect to 100 parts by mass of the total of the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and the phenol-based curing agent. Further, it may be 10 parts by mass or less, and may be 5 parts by mass or less.

Examples of the solvent include ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, diethyl adipate, dibutyl oxalate, dimethyl malonate, diethyl malonate, dimethyl succinate, and diethyl succinate. , 1,4-Butanediol diacetate, glyceryl triacetate and the like. It is preferable to use a solvent from the viewpoint of preparing the ink composition to be uniform and from the viewpoint of increasing the fluidity of the ink composition to form a color filter pixel portion (light conversion layer) with less unevenness.

The boiling point of the solvent is preferably 180 ° C. or higher from the viewpoint of continuous ejection stability of the inkjet ink. Further, since it is necessary to remove the solvent from the ink composition before curing the ink composition at the time of forming the pixel portion, the boiling point of the solvent is preferably 300 ° C. or lower from the viewpoint of easy removal of the solvent.

The above-mentioned ink composition can be applied as an ink used in a known and conventional method for producing a color filter, but it is necessary without wasting materials such as luminescent nanocrystal particles and a solvent, which are relatively expensive. It is preferable to appropriately prepare and use the color filter so as to be suitable for the inkjet method in that the color filter pixel portion (optical conversion layer) can be formed only by using a necessary amount in various places.

The viscosity of the ink composition may be, for example, 2 mPa · s or more, 5 mPa · s or more, or 7 mPa · s or more from the viewpoint of ejection stability during inkjet printing. The viscosity of the ink composition may be 20 mPa · s or less, 15 mPa · s or less, or 12 mPa · s or less. When the viscosity of the ink composition is 2 mPa · s or more, the meniscus shape of the ink composition at the tip of the ink ejection hole of the ejection head is stable, so that the ejection control of the ink composition (for example, the ejection amount and the ejection timing) Control) becomes easy. On the other hand, when the viscosity is 20 mPa · s or less, the ink composition can be smoothly ejected from the ink ejection holes. The viscosity of the ink composition is 2 to 20 mPa · s, 2 to 15 mPa · s, 2 to 12 mPa · s, 5 to 20 mPa · s, 5 to 15 mPa · s, 2 to 20 mPa · s, 7 to 15 mPa · s, 7 to 12 mPa. It may be s or 7 to 12 mPa · s. The viscosity of the ink composition is measured, for example, by an E-type viscometer. The viscosity of the ink composition can be adjusted to a desired range by changing, for example, the weight average molecular weight of an epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer, a phenol-based curing agent, the content of a solvent, and the like.

The surface tension of the ink composition is preferably a surface tension suitable for the inkjet method, specifically, is preferably in the range of 20 to 40 mN / m, and more preferably 25 to 35 mN / m. .. By setting the surface tension within this range, the occurrence of flight bending can be suppressed. The flight bending means that when the ink composition is ejected from the ink ejection holes, the landing position of the ink composition deviates from the target position by 30 μm or more. When the surface tension is 40 mN / m or less, the meniscus shape at the tip of the ink ejection hole is stable, so that ejection control of the ink composition (for example, control of ejection amount and ejection timing) becomes easy. On the other hand, when the surface tension is 20 mN / m or less, the occurrence of flight bending can be suppressed. That is, a pixel portion may not be accurately landed on the pixel portion forming region to be landed and the ink composition may be insufficiently filled, or a pixel portion forming region (or pixel portion) adjacent to the pixel portion forming region to be landed may be generated. The ink composition does not land on the surface and the color reproducibility does not deteriorate. The surface tension of the ink composition can be adjusted to a desired range by changing, for example, the solvent composition, the fluorine-based surfactant, the silicone-based surfactant, the acetylene-based surfactant, and the like.

By the way, the step of forming the pixel portion using the conventional ink composition has been performed by a photolithography method, and the ink composition used in the photolithography method contains an alkali-soluble resin as a binder polymer. When the ink composition is used in a photography method, the ink composition is first applied onto a substrate, and when the ink composition contains a solvent, the ink composition is further dried to form a coating film. The coating film thus obtained is soluble in an alkaline developer and is patterned by being treated with an alkaline developer. At this time, since the alkaline developer is mostly an aqueous solution from the viewpoint of ease of waste liquid treatment of the developer, the coating film of the ink composition is treated with the aqueous solution. On the other hand, in the case of an ink composition using luminescent nanocrystal particles (quantum dots or the like), the luminescent nanocrystal particles are unstable with respect to water, and the luminescence (for example, fluorescence) is impaired by water. On the other hand, when the pixel portion is formed by the inkjet method using the ink composition of the present embodiment, it is not necessary to treat with an alkaline developer (aqueous solution), and the luminescence of the luminescent nanocrystal particles may be impaired by water. do not have.

Further, even when the coating film of the ink composition is not treated with an alkaline developer, when the ink composition is alkali-soluble, the coating film of the ink composition easily absorbs moisture in the atmosphere, and the time is long. As time passes, the luminescence (for example, fluorescence) of the luminescent nanocrystal particles (quantum dots, etc.) is impaired. From this point of view, in the present embodiment, the coating film of the ink composition is preferably alkali-insoluble. That is, the ink composition of the present embodiment is preferably an ink composition capable of forming an alkali-insoluble coating film. Such an ink composition can be obtained by using an alkali-insoluble epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer as the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer. The fact that the coating film of the ink composition is alkaline insoluble means that the amount of the coating film of the ink composition dissolved at 25 ° C. in a 1% by mass potassium hydroxide aqueous solution is based on the total mass of the coating film of the ink composition. It means that it is 30% by mass or less. The dissolved amount of the coating film of the ink composition is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less. The fact that the ink composition is an ink composition capable of forming an alkali-insoluble coating film means that after the ink composition is applied onto the substrate, it is dried at 80 ° C. for 3 minutes when it contains a solvent. It can be confirmed by measuring the above-mentioned dissolution amount of the obtained coating film having a thickness of 1 μm.

Next, a method for producing the ink composition of the above-described embodiment will be described. The method for producing an ink composition includes at least a step of mixing luminescent nanocrystal particles (for example, a dispersion of luminescent nanocrystal particles), an epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer, and a phenol-based curing agent. For example, an ink composition can be obtained by mixing the constituent components of the above-mentioned ink composition and performing a dispersion treatment. Hereinafter, as an example of the method for producing an ink composition, a method for producing an ink composition further containing a polymer dispersant will be described.

The method for producing the ink composition includes, for example, a dispersion of light-scattering particles containing light-scattering particles and a polymer dispersant, and a dispersion of luminescent nano-crystal particles containing luminescent nanoparticles. The first step of preparing the above, and the second step of mixing the dispersion of the light-scattering particles and the dispersion of the luminescent nanocrystal particles are provided. In this method, the dispersion of the light-scattering particles may further contain the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer, and the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer may be further mixed in the second step. Further, the dispersion of the light-scattering particles may further contain a phenol-based curing agent, and the phenol-based curing agent may be further mixed in the second step. In the second step, a solution containing an epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and a phenol-based curing agent prepared in advance may be mixed. According to this method, the light scattering particles can be sufficiently dispersed. Therefore, the leakage light in the pixel portion can be reduced, and an ink composition having excellent ejection stability can be easily obtained.

In the step of preparing the dispersion of the light-scattering particles, the light-scattering particles, the polymer dispersant, and in some cases, the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and the phenol-based curing agent are mixed and dispersed. May prepare a dispersion of light-scattering particles. The mixing and dispersion treatment may be performed using a dispersion device such as a bead mill, a paint conditioner, or a planetary stirrer. It is preferable to use a bead mill or a paint conditioner from the viewpoint that the dispersibility of the light-scattering particles is good and the average particle size of the light-scattering particles can be easily adjusted to a desired range.

The method for producing an ink composition is to disperse luminescent nanocrystal particles containing luminescent nanocrystal particles and at least one of an epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and a phenol-based curing agent before the second step. It may further include a step of preparing the body. In this case, in the second step, the dispersion of the light-scattering particles and the dispersion of the luminescent nanocrystal particles are mixed. According to this method, the luminescent nanocrystal particles can be sufficiently dispersed. Therefore, the leakage light in the pixel portion can be reduced, and an ink composition having excellent ejection stability can be easily obtained. In the step of preparing the dispersion of the luminescent nanocrystal particles, the luminescent nanocrystal particles, the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer, and the phenol are used in the same dispersive device as in the step of preparing the dispersion of the light-scattering particles. Mixing and dispersion treatment with at least one of the system curing agents may be performed.

When the ink composition of the present embodiment is used as an ink composition for an inkjet method, it is preferably applied to a piezojet type inkjet recording device having a mechanical ejection mechanism using a piezoelectric element. In the piezojet method, the ink composition is not instantaneously exposed to a high temperature during ejection, deterioration of the luminescent nanocrystal particles is unlikely to occur, and the color filter pixel portion (light conversion layer) has the expected emission characteristics. Is easier to obtain.

The third pixel portion 10c has a transmittance of 30% or more with respect to light having a wavelength in the range of 420 to 480 nm. Therefore, the third pixel unit 10c functions as a blue pixel unit when a light source that emits light having a wavelength in the range of 420 to 480 nm is used. The third pixel portion 10c contains, for example, a cured product of a composition containing the above-mentioned epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and a phenol-based curing agent.

It is a cured product obtained by cross-linking with. That is, the third pixel portion 10c contains the third curing component 13c. When the third pixel portion 10c contains the above-mentioned cured product, the composition containing the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and the phenol-based curing agent has a transmittance of 30% for light having a wavelength in the range of 420 to 480 nm. As long as it is as described above, among the components contained in the above-mentioned ink composition, components other than the epoxy group-containing acrylic polymer and the phenol-based curing agent may be further contained.

The material constituting the light-shielding portion 20 is not particularly limited, and the curing of the resin composition containing light-shielding particles such as carbon fine particles, metal oxides, inorganic pigments, and organic pigments in the binder polymer in addition to a metal such as chromium. Objects and the like can be used. The binder polymer used here includes one or a mixture of two or more resins such as polyimide resin, acrylic resin, epoxy resin, polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, gelatin, casein, and cellulose, photosensitive resin, and O / W. An emulsion-type resin composition (for example, an emulsion of reactive silicone) or the like can be used. The thickness of the light-shielding portion 20 may be, for example, 0.5 μm or more, and may be 10 μm or less.

The base material 40 is a transparent base material having light transmission, and is, for example, a transparent glass substrate such as quartz glass, Pylex (registered trademark) glass, a synthetic quartz plate, a transparent resin film, an optical resin film, or the like. A flexible base material or the like can be used. Among these, it is preferable to use a glass substrate made of non-alkali glass that does not contain an alkaline component in the glass. Specifically, "7059 glass", "1737 glass", "Eagle 200" and "Eagle XG" manufactured by Corning Inc., "AN100" manufactured by Asahi Glass Co., Ltd., "OA-10G" and "OA-10G" manufactured by Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd.

The color filter 100 provided with the above optical conversion layer 30 is suitably used when a light source that emits light having a wavelength in the range of 420 to 480 nm is used.

In the color filter 100, for example, after the light-shielding portion 20 is formed in a pattern on the base material 40, the ink composition of the above-described embodiment is formed in the pixel portion-forming region partitioned by the light-shielding portion 20 on the base material 40. Inkjet ink) can be selectively adhered by an inkjet method, and the ink composition can be cured by heating. In the method of forming the pixel portion by the conventional photolithography method, since development is usually performed using an alkaline developer, an alkali-soluble polymer is used as the binder polymer, and in principle, about two-thirds or more of the material is used. Will be removed, and the material will be wasted. As described above, the inkjet method is superior to the photolithography method in terms of material usage efficiency.

The method of forming the light-shielding portion 20 is to form a metal thin film such as chromium or a thin film of a resin composition containing light-shielding particles in a region serving as a boundary between a plurality of pixel portions on one surface side of the base material 40. However, a method of patterning this thin film and the like can be mentioned. The metal thin film can be formed by, for example, a sputtering method, a vacuum vapor deposition method, or the like, and the thin film of the resin composition containing the light-shielding particles can be formed, for example, by a method such as coating or printing. Examples of the method for patterning include a photolithography method.

The heating temperature for curing the ink composition may be, for example, 110 ° C. or higher, and may be 250 ° C. or lower. The heating time may be, for example, 10 minutes or more and 120 minutes or less.

Although the color filter, the optical conversion layer, and one embodiment of these manufacturing methods have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.

For example, the optical conversion layer is a pixel portion containing a cured product of an ink composition containing blue-emitting nanocrystal particles in place of the third pixel portion 10c or in addition to the third pixel portion 10c ( It may be provided with a blue pixel portion). Further, the light conversion layer may include a pixel portion (for example, a yellow pixel portion) containing a cured product of an ink composition containing nanocrystal particles that emit light of a color other than red, green, and blue. In these cases, it is preferable that each of the luminescent nanocrystal particles contained in each pixel portion of the optical conversion layer has an absorption maximum wavelength in the same wavelength range.

Further, at least a part of the pixel portion of the light conversion layer may contain a cured product of a composition containing a pigment other than the luminescent nanocrystal particles.

Further, the color filter may include an ink-repellent layer made of a material having an ink-repellent property narrower than that of the light-shielding portion on the pattern of the light-shielding portion. Further, instead of providing an ink-repellent layer, a photocatalyst-containing layer as a wettability variable layer is formed in a solid coating shape in a region including a pixel portion forming region, and then light is applied to the photocatalyst-containing layer via a photomask. Irradiation may be performed for exposure to selectively increase the parental ink property of the pixel portion forming region. Examples of the photocatalyst include titanium oxide.

Further, the color filter may be provided with an ink receiving layer containing hydroxypropyl cellulose or the like between the base material and the pixel portion.

Further, the color filter may be provided with a protective layer on the pixel portion. This protective layer flattens the color filter and prevents the components contained in the pixel portion, or the components contained in the pixel portion and the components contained in the photocatalyst-containing layer from elution into the liquid crystal layer. It is provided. As the material constituting the protective layer, a material used as a known protective layer for a color filter can be used.

Further, in addition to the above-mentioned luminescent nanocrystal particles, the pixel portion of the light conversion layer of the present embodiment may further contain a pigment having substantially the same color as the luminescent color of the luminescent nanocrystal particles. For example, when a pixel portion containing luminescent nanocrystal particles that absorb and emit blue light is used as the pixel portion of the liquid crystal display element, the light from the light source is blue light or semi-white light having a peak at 450 nm. However, if the concentration of the luminescent nanocrystal particles in the pixel portion is not sufficient, the light from the light source passes through the light conversion layer when the liquid crystal display element is driven. The transmitted light (blue light, leaked light) from this light source and the light emitted by the luminescent nanocrystal particles are mixed. From the viewpoint of preventing deterioration of color reproducibility due to the occurrence of such color mixing, a pigment may be contained in the pixel portion of the optical conversion layer. In order to contain the pigment in the pixel portion, the pigment may be contained in the ink composition.

Further, one or two of the red pixel portion (R), the green pixel portion (G), and the blue pixel portion (B) in the optical conversion layer of the present embodiment do not contain luminescent nanocrystal particles. It may be a pixel portion containing a coloring material. As the color material that can be used here, a known color material can be used. For example, examples of the coloring material used for the red pixel portion (R) include diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments and / or anionic red organic dyes. Examples of the coloring material used for the green pixel portion (G) include at least one selected from the group consisting of a halogenated copper phthalocyanine pigment, a phthalocyanine-based green dye, a phthalocyanine-based blue dye and an azo-based yellow organic dye. Examples of the coloring material used for the blue pixel portion (B) include an ε-type copper phthalosine pigment and / or a cationic blue organic dye. The amount of these coloring materials used is 1 to 5 mass based on the total mass of the pixel portion (cured product of the ink composition) from the viewpoint of preventing a decrease in transmittance when contained in the optical conversion layer. % Is preferable.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described with reference to Examples. However, the present invention is not limited to the following examples. All the materials used in the examples were those in which argon gas was introduced and the dissolved oxygen was replaced with nitrogen gas. As for titanium oxide, one which was heated at 120 ° C. for 2 hours under a reduced pressure of 1 mmHg and allowed to cool in an argon gas atmosphere was used before mixing. The liquid material used in the examples was dehydrated with Molecular Sieves 3A for 48 hours or more in advance before mixing.

<Preparation of indium laurate precursor solution>
10 g of 1-octadecene (ODE), 146 mg (0.5 mmol) of indium acetate and 300 mg (1.5 mmol) of lauric acid were added to the reaction flask to obtain a mixture. The mixture was heated at 140 ° C. for 2 hours under vacuum to obtain a transparent solution (indium laurate precursor solution). This precursor solution was kept in the glove box at room temperature until needed. Indium laurate has low solubility at room temperature and easily precipitates. Therefore, when using a precursor solution, the precipitated indium laurate in the precursor solution (ODE mixture) is heated to about 90 ° C to become transparent. After forming the solution, the desired amount was weighed and used.
