Description

液晶配向劑、液晶配向膜及使用其之液晶顯示元件Liquid crystal alignment agent, liquid crystal alignment film and liquid crystal display element using the same

[0001] 本發明係關於液晶配向劑、使用其之液晶配向膜及液晶顯示元件。[0001] The present invention relates to a liquid crystal alignment agent, a liquid crystal alignment film using the same, and a liquid crystal display element.

[0002] 液晶配向膜係為作為顯示裝置廣泛被使用的液晶顯示元件的構成構件,擔任將液晶配向於一定方向的角色。現在使用於工業上的主要液晶配向膜係由聚醯亞胺前驅物之聚醯胺酸(亦稱為polyamic acid)或聚醯亞胺的溶液所成的液晶配向劑所形成。具體而言,於基板塗佈液晶配向劑,經加熱‧燒成後,藉由進行液晶配向處理而得。   [0003] 以往,在液晶配向處理時,主要藉由摩擦進行表面處理,但在摩擦處理時通常難以高度地進行均等配向處理,有引起液晶的配向不良或引起液晶配向膜之缺損,藉此產生顯示缺陷,產生塵埃等問題。近年來,藉由使用於面板的基板之大型化、高精度化、低成本化等,有著基板面積擴大、凹凸變大等傾向。於如此基板上形成配向膜時,在摩擦處理時,更進一步,留下改善的餘地。   [0004] 另一方面,作為改變為摩擦法之配向處理的方法,有人提出利用光反應的配向處理。具體而言,已知於基板表面上形成具有引起聚乙烯桂皮酸酯等光反應的特定部位之聚合物的膜,藉由照射偏光或非偏光之放射線,賦予液晶配向能之方法(光配向法)。依據該方法,不會產生靜電氣或塵埃,可實現均勻液晶配向,亦可能藉由配向分割而提高視野角等(參照專利文獻1、2)。   [0005] 又,對於TN(Twisted Nematic)、STN(Super Twisted Nematic)等液晶晶胞,液晶配向膜為必須具有將液晶分子對基板面以所定角度(預傾角)進行傾斜配向的功能。已知欲表現預傾角,使用具有烷基側鏈、類固醇骨架之側鏈、具有環結構之側鏈等聚醯胺酸或聚醯亞胺等之液晶配向膜(專利文獻3、4、5)。使用光的配向處理中,預傾角一般藉由對基板面之入射方向呈基板法線方向傾斜的放射線之照射而被賦予(參照專利文獻1)。 [先前技術文獻] [專利文獻]   [0006]   [專利文獻1] 日本特開平6-287453號公報   [專利文獻2] 日本特開平9-297313號公報   [專利文獻3] 日本特開平05-043687號公報   [專利文獻4] 日本特開平04-281427號公報   [專利文獻5] 日本特開平02-223916號公報[0002] A liquid crystal alignment film is a constituent member of a liquid crystal display element widely used as a display device, and plays a role of aligning liquid crystal in a certain direction. Currently, the main liquid crystal alignment films used in industry are formed from liquid crystal alignment agents formed from polyimide precursors such as polyamic acid (also known as polyamic acid) or a solution of polyimide. Specifically, a liquid crystal aligning agent is coated on a substrate, and is obtained by performing a liquid crystal alignment treatment after heating and firing. In the past, in the liquid crystal alignment treatment, the surface treatment was mainly performed by rubbing, but it is usually difficult to perform the uniform alignment treatment to a high degree during the rubbing treatment, which may cause poor alignment of the liquid crystal or cause defects in the liquid crystal alignment film. Display defects, generation of dust and other problems. In recent years, due to the increase in size, high precision, and cost reduction of substrates used in panels, there is a tendency that the area of the substrate is enlarged, and the unevenness thereof is increased. When an alignment film is formed on such a substrate, in the rubbing treatment, there is still room for improvement. [0004] On the other hand, as a method of changing the alignment treatment to the rubbing method, an alignment treatment utilizing a photoreaction has been proposed. Specifically, a method of imparting alignment energy to a liquid crystal by irradiating a polarized or unpolarized radiation with a polymer film having a specific site that causes a photoreaction such as polyvinyl cinnamate on the surface of a substrate is known (photoalignment method) ). According to this method, it is possible to realize uniform liquid crystal alignment without generating static gas or dust, and it is also possible to improve the viewing angle and the like by dividing the alignment (see Patent Documents 1 and 2). [0005] Furthermore, for liquid crystal cells such as TN (Twisted Nematic) and STN (Super Twisted Nematic), the liquid crystal alignment film must have the function of tilting the liquid crystal molecules to the substrate surface at a predetermined angle (pretilt angle). It is known that in order to express a pretilt angle, a liquid crystal alignment film having an alkyl side chain, a side chain having a steroid skeleton, or a side chain having a ring structure, such as polyamide or polyimide, is used (Patent Documents 3, 4, and 5). . In the alignment treatment using light, the pretilt angle is generally given by irradiating radiation whose incident direction on the substrate surface is inclined to the substrate normal direction (refer to Patent Document 1).

[發明所欲解決之課題]   [0007] 如上所述,以往,主要液晶配向膜係藉由自聚醯亞胺前驅物之聚醯胺酸或是聚醯亞胺之溶液所成之液晶配向劑所形成,但近年來,在該液晶配向劑中,由於使用於面板之基板之大型化、高精度化、低成本等問題,存在各種之課題,有改進的空間。為了解決這樣的1個課題,提案將下述之式(DA-3)表示之二胺作為原料,使其與四羧酸二酐成分反應所得之聚醯胺酸及/或是包含將該聚醯胺酸醯亞胺化所得之聚醯亞胺之液晶配向劑。   [0008]

Figure 02_image003
具備自該液晶配向劑所得之液晶配向膜之液晶顯示元件係在電特性(累積電荷的遺漏等)之方面具有優異之特性。另一方面,使用該液晶配向劑之情況,所得之液晶配向膜著色為黑褐色且失去透明性,結果發現有時具有液晶配向膜的液晶配向元件會受到不好的影響。   [0009] 本發明係以提供經由使用上述之二胺化合物作為液晶配向劑中所包含的聚合物之聚醯胺酸之原料,維持優異的特性,另一方面,所得的液晶配向膜不會對著色成黑褐色且失去透明性等之液晶配向元件造成不良影響之液晶配向劑為目的。 [用以解決課題之手段]   [0010] 本發明者欲達到上述目的而進行詳細研究之結果,以完成本發明。   本發明係以一種液晶配向劑,其特徵為含有:選自含有具有下述式[1]表示之構造之二胺的二胺成分與四羧酸二酐成分反應所得之聚醯胺酸、及將該聚醯胺酸醯亞胺化所得之聚醯亞胺所成之群中的至少1個聚合物為要旨;
Figure 02_image005
(式中,A係表示藉由溫度150~300℃之加熱而置換為氫原子之熱解離性基,苯環所具有之氫原子亦可藉由碳數1~5之烷基、碳數1~5之烷氧基或鹵素基取代,*係表示鍵結處)。 [本發明之效果]   [0011] 本發明之液晶配向劑係於將式[1]表示之二胺(以下,亦稱為特定二胺)作為原料之聚醯胺酸及/或是含有將該聚醯胺酸該醯亞胺化所得之聚醯亞胺之方面具有特徵,該聚合物係於N-甲基吡咯烷酮(NMP)等之極性溶劑中之溶解性非常高、聚合時之處理性為良好,且含有該聚合物之液晶配向劑係塗佈・成膜性優異,進而即使經光照射下曝曬,亦可得電壓保持率之降低被抑制之液晶配向膜。   此外,本發明之液晶配向劑係將具有特定胺與類似構造之後述之二胺化合物(DA-3)為原料之聚醯胺酸或包含該聚醯亞胺之液晶配向劑相比,所得到的液晶配向膜不著色為黑褐色且具有透明性,故可形成對液晶顯示元件沒不良影響的液晶配向膜。   [0012] 對於本發明之液晶配向劑為何可得上述優異效果,大致推測如下所述。即,具有與特定二胺相同之二苯基胺骨架之類似構造之上述式(DA-3)之二胺係於該構造中,存在與1級胺基相較之下,更富含反應性之2級胺基,該2級胺基於與四羧酸二酐成分(其係用於得到聚醯胺酸)之反應過程等中反應,發生不期望的三次元反應。其結果認為所得之反應物產生著色現象同時,液晶配向劑之特性降低。   [0013] 另一方面,本發明之特定二胺係於該構造中,具有與上述之式(DA-3)相同之富含反應性之2級胺基,但該2級胺基係以熱解離性基保護,故與四羧酸二酐成分(其係用於得到聚醯胺酸)之反應過程中,不發生不期望的三次元的反應,其結果認為不發生著色現象、液晶配向劑之特性不降低。   進而,在本發明之液晶配向劑中,所含有之聚合物之聚醯胺酸或聚醯亞胺具有以熱解離性基保護之胺基,但以該熱解離性基保護之胺基係如後述般,將液晶配向劑塗佈於基板,且燒成後,於形成液晶配向膜之過程中,藉由燒成過程中之加熱,可使其變化為熱解離性基經去保護之胺基。   [0014] 經上述去保護之胺基再度回覆反應性,藉由解離產生之胺基藉由於分子內進行反應,從而形成雜環等、生成剛性的側鏈,該側鏈構造作為預傾角良好的誘發部位而發揮作用。再者,熱解離性基脫落後之胺基,該全部不僅使用於上述環化反應,一部分亦使用於分子間反應,由於膜強度之提昇或聚合物之低分子成分交聯,而貢獻於信賴性之提昇。   如此般地,使用本發明之特定二胺之聚醯胺酸或聚醯亞胺不易發生磨擦處理時之切削現象,且即使於長時間之高溫、經背光照射等曝光,亦不易產生電壓保持率之降低或離子密度之增加。[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] [0007] As mentioned above, conventionally, the main liquid crystal alignment films are liquid crystal alignment agents formed from polyimide precursors of polyimide or polyimide solutions. However, in recent years, in this liquid crystal aligning agent, there are various problems due to problems such as increase in size, high precision, and low cost of the substrate used for the panel, and there is room for improvement. In order to solve such a problem, a diamine represented by the following formula (DA-3) is proposed as a raw material, and a polyamic acid obtained by reacting it with a tetracarboxylic dianhydride component, and/or a polyamide containing the It is a liquid crystal alignment agent of polyimide obtained by imidization of amide acid. [0008]
Figure 02_image003
The liquid crystal display element provided with the liquid crystal aligning film obtained from this liquid crystal aligning agent has the outstanding characteristic in the point of electric characteristic (the omission of accumulated electric charge, etc.). On the other hand, when this liquid crystal alignment agent is used, the resulting liquid crystal alignment film is colored dark brown and loses transparency. As a result, it has been found that a liquid crystal alignment element having a liquid crystal alignment film may be adversely affected. The present invention is to provide by using the above-mentioned diamine compound as the raw material of the polyamic acid of the polymer contained in the liquid crystal alignment agent, to maintain excellent characteristics, on the other hand, the obtained liquid crystal alignment film will not The purpose is to use a liquid crystal aligning agent that causes adverse effects on liquid crystal aligning elements that are colored dark brown and lose transparency. [MEANS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM] [0010] The present inventors completed the present invention as a result of detailed research to achieve the above-mentioned object. The present invention is based on a liquid crystal aligning agent characterized by containing: a diamine component selected from the group consisting of a diamine having a structure represented by the following formula [1] and a tetracarboxylic dianhydride component obtained by reacting a polyamic acid; and At least one polymer in the group of polyimides obtained by imidizing the polyimide is the gist;
Figure 02_image005
(In the formula, A represents a thermally dissociable group that is replaced by a hydrogen atom by heating at a temperature of 150 to 300° C. The hydrogen atom of the benzene ring ~5 is substituted by alkoxy or halogen group, * means the bond). [Effects of the Invention] [0011] The liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention is a polyamic acid containing a diamine (hereinafter, also referred to as a specific diamine) represented by the formula [1] as a raw material and/or containing the The polyimide obtained by the imidization of the polyimide is characterized in that the polymer has a very high solubility in polar solvents such as N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), and its properties during polymerization are as follows: Good, and the liquid crystal aligning agent containing the polymer is excellent in coating and film-forming properties, and even when exposed to light, a liquid crystal aligning film in which the voltage holding ratio is suppressed can be obtained. In addition, the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention is obtained by comparing the liquid crystal aligning agent with a specific amine and a diamine compound (DA-3) described later as a raw material having a specific amine as a raw material or a liquid crystal aligning agent containing the polyimide. The liquid crystal alignment film is not colored dark brown and has transparency, so it can form a liquid crystal alignment film that has no adverse effect on the liquid crystal display element. [0012] The reason why the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention can obtain the above-mentioned excellent effects is roughly presumed as follows. That is, the diamine of the above-mentioned formula (DA-3) having a similar structure with the same diphenylamine skeleton as the specific diamine is present in this structure, and is richer in reactivity than the primary amine group The secondary amine group, the secondary amine reacts with the tetracarboxylic dianhydride component (which is used to obtain the polyamide acid) in the reaction process, etc., and an undesired three-dimensional reaction occurs. As a result, it is considered that a coloring phenomenon occurs in the obtained reactant, and the properties of the liquid crystal aligning agent are degraded. On the other hand, the specific diamine of the present invention is in this structure, has the 2-level amino group that is rich in reactivity identical with above-mentioned formula (DA-3), but this 2-level amino group is with heat The dissociative group is protected, so during the reaction with the tetracarboxylic dianhydride component (which is used to obtain polyamide acid), an undesired three-dimensional reaction does not occur, and as a result, it is considered that no coloring phenomenon, liquid crystal aligning agent occurs. The characteristics are not reduced. Furthermore, in the liquid crystal aligning agent of the present invention, the polyamic acid or polyimide of the contained polymer has an amine group protected by a thermally dissociable group, but the amine group protected by the thermally dissociative group is such as As described later, the liquid crystal alignment agent is coated on the substrate, and after firing, in the process of forming the liquid crystal alignment film, by heating during the firing process, it can be changed into an amine group with a thermally dissociable group deprotected . Through the above-mentioned deprotected amine group, the reactivity is returned again, and the amine group generated by dissociation is reacted in the molecule, thereby forming a heterocyclic ring, etc., generating a rigid side chain, and the side chain structure is good as a pretilt angle. act at the inducing site. Furthermore, the amine group after the thermal dissociation group has been removed is not only used in the above-mentioned cyclization reaction, but also partly used in the intermolecular reaction, and contributes to the trust due to the improvement of the membrane strength or the cross-linking of the low molecular components of the polymer. Sexual enhancement. In this way, the polyamide acid or polyimide using the specific diamine of the present invention is not easy to cause cutting phenomenon during friction treatment, and it is not easy to generate voltage retention even under long-term high temperature, exposure to backlight, etc. decrease or increase in ion density.

(m為1~10的整數)。   其他二胺配合作為液晶配向膜時的液晶配向性、電壓保持特性、累積電荷等特性,可混合1種類或2種類以上後使用。   [0041] <聚醯胺酸之製造>   藉由四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分之反應,得到本發明之聚醯胺酸的方法,可使用已知手法。一般為將四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分在有機溶劑中進行反應之方法。四羧酸二酐成分與二胺之反應在有機溶劑中比較容易進行,且有著不會產生副產物的優點。   [0042] 與為使用於四羧酸二酐成分與二胺之反應的有機溶劑,僅為可溶解所生成之聚醯胺酸者即可,並無特別限定。以下舉出其具體例。   可舉出N,N-二甲基甲醯胺、N,N-二甲基乙醯胺、N-甲基-2-吡咯烷酮、N-乙基-2-吡咯烷酮、N-甲基己內醯胺、二甲基亞碸、四甲基脲、吡啶、二甲基碸、六甲基亞碸、γ-丁內酯、異丙醇、甲氧基甲基戊醇、二戊烯、乙基戊基酮、甲基壬基酮、甲基乙酮、甲基異戊基酮、甲基異丙酮、甲基賽路蘇、乙基賽路蘇、甲基賽路蘇乙酸酯、乙基賽路蘇乙酸酯、丁基卡必醇、乙基卡必醇、乙二醇、乙二醇單乙酸酯、乙二醇單異丙基醚、乙二醇單丁基醚、丙二醇、丙二醇單乙酸酯、丙二醇單甲基醚、丙二醇-第三丁基醚、二丙二醇單甲基醚、二乙二醇、二乙二醇單乙酸酯、二乙二醇二甲基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單甲基醚、二丙二醇單甲基醚、二丙二醇單乙基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單乙基醚、二丙二醇單丙基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單丙基醚、3-甲基-3-甲氧基丁基乙酸酯、三丙二醇甲基醚、3-甲基-3-甲氧基丁醇、二異丙基醚、乙基異丁基醚、二異丁烯、戊基乙酸酯、丁基丁酸酯、丁基醚、二異丁酮、甲基環己烯、丙基醚、二己基醚、二噁烷、n-己烷、n-戊烷、n-辛烷、二乙基醚、環己酮、碳酸乙二酯、碳酸丙二酯、乳酸甲酯、乳酸乙酯、乙酸甲酯、乙酸乙酯、乙酸正丁酯、乙酸丙二醇單乙基醚、丙酮酸甲酯、丙酮酸乙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸甲酯、3-乙氧基丙酸甲基乙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸乙酯、3-乙氧基丙酸、3-甲氧基丙酸、3-甲氧基丙酸丙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸丁酯、二甘醇二甲醚、4-羥基-4-甲基-2-戊酮、3-甲氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺、3-乙氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺、3-丁氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺等。此等可單獨使用,亦可混合後使用。且即使為不溶解聚醯胺酸之溶劑,在不析出所生成之聚醯胺酸的範圍內,亦可混合於上述溶劑中使用。   [0043] 又,有機溶劑中之水分會阻礙聚合反應,且成為水解所生成之聚醯胺酸的原因,故有機溶劑儘可能使用經過脱水乾燥者為佳。   將四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分在有機溶劑中進行反應時,攪拌將二胺成分分散或溶解於有機溶劑的溶液,將四羧酸二酐成分直接或分散或溶解於有機溶劑後添加之方法、相反地於將四羧酸二酐成分分散或溶解於有機溶劑之溶液中添加二胺成分之方法、交互添加四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分之方法等,使用此等任一方法皆可。又,四羧酸二酐成分或二胺成分係由複數種化合物所成時,可於預先混合之狀態下進行反應,或亦可各別順序進行反應,且各別反應之低分子量體可經混合反應後作為高分子量體。   [0044] 使四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分反應之溫度可選擇-20~150℃之任意溫度,但較佳為-5~100℃之範圍。又,反應可在任意濃度下進行,但濃度過低時,高分子量之聚合物的獲得變的困難,濃度過高時,反應液之黏性會過高,而難以均勻攪拌,故四羧酸二酐成分與二胺成分之反應溶液中的合計濃度以1~50質量%為佳,較佳為5~30質量%。反應初期在高濃度下進行,其後可追加有機溶劑。   對於聚醯胺酸之聚合反應,四羧酸二酐成分之合計莫耳數與二胺成分之合計莫耳數的比以0.8~1.2為佳,以0.9~1.1為較佳。與一般聚縮合反應同樣地,該莫耳比越接近1.0,所生成之聚醯胺酸的分子量越大。   [0045] <聚醯亞胺之製造>   本發明的聚醯亞胺係為將前述聚醯胺酸經脱水閉環後所得之聚醯亞胺,可作為欲得到液晶配向膜之聚合物使用。   對於本發明之聚醯亞胺,醯胺酸基之脱水閉環率(醯亞胺化率)無須一定要100%,可對應用途或目的做任意調整。   作為使聚醯胺酸醯亞胺化之方法,可舉出將聚醯胺酸之溶液直接加熱之熱醯亞胺化法、及於聚醯胺酸之溶液添加觸媒的觸媒醯亞胺化法。   將聚醯胺酸在溶液中使其熱醯亞胺化時的溫度為100~400℃,較佳為120~250℃,一邊將藉由醯亞胺化反應所生成之水排除於系統外,一邊進行為佳。   [0046] 聚醯胺酸的觸媒醯亞胺化為,可於聚醯胺酸的溶液中添加鹼性觸媒與酸酐,在-20~250℃,較佳為在0~180℃下藉由攪拌而進行。鹼性觸媒的量為醯胺酸基之0.5~30莫耳倍,較佳為2~20莫耳倍,酸酐之量為醯胺酸基的1~50莫耳倍,較佳為3~30莫耳倍。作為鹼性觸媒,可舉出吡啶、三乙胺、三甲胺、三丁胺、三辛胺等,其中亦以吡啶因具有適合於進行反應之鹼性故較佳。作為酸酐,可舉出乙酸酐、偏苯三甲酸酐、均苯四甲酸二酐等,其中亦以使用乙酸酐時反應終了後的純化容易進行故較佳。藉由觸媒醯亞胺化之醯亞胺化率可藉由調節觸媒量、反應溫度、反應時間等而控制。   [0047] 含於本發明之液晶配向劑的聚合物之分子量,若考慮到所得之塗膜強度、塗膜形成時之作業性、及塗膜之均勻性時,以GPC(Gel Permeation Chromatography)法所測定之重量平均分子量以5,000~1,000,000為佳,較佳為10,000~150,000。   [0048] <液晶配向劑>   本發明的液晶配向劑係為形成液晶配向膜時的塗佈液,其為欲形成樹脂被膜時的樹脂成分溶解於有機溶劑之溶液。於此,前述樹脂成分含包含選自上述本發明的聚合物之至少一種聚合物。樹脂成分的液晶配向劑中之含有量以1~20質量%為佳,較佳為3~15質量%,特佳為3~10質量%。   樹脂成分可皆為本發明之聚合物,亦可混合除此以外的其他聚合物。此時,樹脂成分中之前述其他聚合物的含有量以0.5~15質量%為佳,較佳為1~10質量%。   該其他聚合物,例如作為與四羧酸二酐成分反應之二胺成分,可舉出使用特定二胺化合物以外的二胺化合物所得之聚醯胺酸或聚醯亞胺等。   [0049] 使用於本發明的液晶配向劑之有機溶劑僅為可溶解樹脂成分的有機溶劑即可,並無特別限定。以下舉出其具體例。   可舉出N,N-二甲基甲醯胺、N,N-二甲基乙醯胺、N-甲基-2-吡咯烷酮、N-甲基己內醯胺、2-吡咯烷酮、N-乙基吡咯烷酮、N-乙烯吡咯烷酮、二甲基亞碸、四甲基脲、吡啶、二甲基碸、六甲基亞碸、γ-丁內酯、3-甲氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺、3-乙氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺、3-丁氧基-N,N-二甲基丙烷醯胺、1,3-二甲基-咪唑烷酮、乙基戊基酮、甲基壬基酮、甲基乙酮、甲基異戊基酮、甲基異丙酮、環己酮、碳酸乙二酯、碳酸丙二酯、二甘醇二甲醚、4-羥基-4-甲基-2-戊酮等。此等可單獨使用,亦可混合後使用。   [0050] 本發明的液晶配向處理劑可含有上述以外之成分。作為該例子有塗佈液晶配向劑時的提高膜厚均勻性或表面平滑性之溶劑多物質等,提高液晶配向膜與基板之密著性之化合物等。   作為提高膜厚均勻性或表面平滑性之溶劑(弱溶劑)的具體例,可舉出以下者。   [0051] 例如可舉出異丙醇、甲氧基甲基戊醇、甲基賽路蘇乙基賽路蘇、丁基賽路蘇、甲基賽路蘇乙酸酯、乙二醇二乙醚乙酸酯、丁基卡必醇、乙基卡必醇、乙基卡必醇乙酸酯、乙二醇、乙二醇單乙酸酯、乙二醇單異丙基醚、乙二醇單丁基醚、丙二醇、丙二醇單乙酸酯、丙二醇單甲基醚、丙二醇-第三丁基醚、二丙二醇單甲基醚、二乙二醇、二乙二醇單乙酸酯、二乙二醇二甲基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單甲基醚、二丙二醇單甲基醚、二丙二醇單乙基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單乙基醚、二丙二醇單丙基醚、二丙二醇單乙酸酯單丙基醚、二丙二醇二甲基醚、3-甲基-3-甲氧基丁基乙酸酯、三丙二醇甲基醚、3-甲基-3-甲氧基丁醇、二異丙基醚、乙基異丁基醚、二異丁烯、戊基乙酸酯、丁基丁酸酯、丁基醚、二異丁酮、甲基環己烯、丙基醚、二己基醚、1-己醇、n-己烷、n-戊烷、n-辛烷、二乙基醚、乳酸甲酯、乳酸乙酯、乙酸甲酯、乙酸乙酯、乙酸正丁酯、乙酸丙二醇單乙基醚、丙酮酸甲酯、丙酮酸乙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸甲酯、3-乙氧基丙酸甲基乙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸乙酯、3-乙氧基丙酸、3-甲氧基丙酸、3-甲氧基丙酸丙酯、3-甲氧基丙酸丁酯、1-甲氧基-2-丙醇、1-乙氧基-2-丙醇、1-丁氧基-2-丙醇、2-丁氧基-1-丙醇、2,6-二甲基-4-庚醇、1-苯氧基-2-丙醇、丙二醇單乙酸酯、丙二醇二乙酸酯、丙二醇-1-單甲基醚-2-乙酸酯、丙二醇-1-單乙基醚-2-乙酸酯、二丙二醇、2-(2-乙氧基丙氧基)丙醇、乳酸甲酯酯、乳酸乙基酯、乳酸n-丙基酯、乳酸n-丁基酯、乳酸異戊酯等具有低表面張力之溶劑等。   此等弱溶劑可使用1種類亦可使用混合複數種類者。使用上述溶劑時,液晶配向劑所包含之溶劑全體的5~80質量%為佳,較佳為20~60質量%。   [0052] 作為提高膜厚的均勻性或表面平滑性之化合物,可舉出氟系界面活性劑、聚矽氧系界面活性劑、非離子系界面活性劑等。   更具體例如可舉出Eftop EF301、EF303、EF352 (TOHKEM PRODUCTS CORP製)、Megafac F171、F173、R-30(大日本油墨公司製)、Fluorad FC430、FC431(住友3M公司製)、Asahiguard AG710、SurflonS-382、SC101、SC102、SC103、SC104、SC105、SC106(旭硝子公司製)等。此等界面活性劑之使用比率對於液晶配向劑所含之樹脂成分的100質量份而言,較佳為0.01~2質量份,更佳為0.01~1質量份。   [0053] 作為提高液晶配向膜與基板之密著性的化合物之具體例,可舉出以下所示官能性矽烷含有化合物、環氧基含有化合物等。   例如可舉出3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、3-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、2-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、2-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、N-(2-胺基乙基)-3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、N-(2-胺基乙基)-3-胺基丙基甲基二甲氧基矽烷、3-醯脲丙基三甲氧基矽烷、3-醯脲丙基三乙氧基矽烷、N-乙氧基羰基-3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、N-乙氧基羰基-3-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、N-三乙氧基矽基丙基三伸乙基三胺、N-三甲氧基矽基丙基三伸乙基三胺、10-三甲氧基矽基-1,4,7-三氮雜癸烷、10-三乙氧基矽基-1,4,7-三氮雜癸烷、9-三甲氧基矽基-3,6-二氮雜壬基乙酸酯、9-三乙氧基矽基-3,6-二氮雜壬基乙酸酯、N-苯甲基-3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、N-苯甲基-3-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、N-苯基-3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、N-苯基-3-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、N-雙(氧基伸乙基)-3-胺基丙基三甲氧基矽烷、N-雙(氧基伸乙基)-3-胺基丙基三乙氧基矽烷、乙二醇二氧化丙烯醚、聚乙二醇二氧化丙烯醚、丙二醇二氧化丙烯醚、三丙二醇二氧化丙烯醚、聚丙二醇二氧化丙烯醚、新戊二醇二氧化丙烯醚、1,6-己二醇二氧化丙烯醚、甘油二氧化丙烯醚、2,2-二溴新戊二醇二氧化丙烯醚、1,3,5,6-四氧化丙烯基-2,4-己二醇、N,N,N’,N’,-四氧化丙烯基-間二甲苯二胺、1,3-雙(N,N-二氧化丙烯基胺基甲基)環己烷、N,N,N’,N’,-四氧化丙烯基-4,4’-二胺基二苯基甲烷等。   [0054] 除進一步提高基板與膜之密著性以外,以欲防止因背光所引起的電氣特性降低等為目的,含有如以下之酚醛塑料系的添加劑為佳。具體如以下所示酚醛塑料系添加劑。

In order to obtain a polyamic acid, in the diamine component by the reaction with the said tetracarboxylic dianhydride component, the content rate of a specific diamine is not specifically limited. The content of the specific diamine in the diamine component may be 100%.

Generally, it is a method of reacting a tetracarboxylic dianhydride component and a diamine component in an organic solvent. The reaction between the tetracarboxylic dianhydride component and the diamine is relatively easy to carry out in an organic solvent, and there is an advantage that no by-product is produced. [0042] The organic solvent used for the reaction of the tetracarboxylic dianhydride component and the diamine is only one that can dissolve the generated polyamic acid, and is not particularly limited. Specific examples thereof are given below. N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-methylcaprolactone can be mentioned Amine, dimethylsulfoxide, tetramethylurea, pyridine, dimethylsulfite, hexamethylsene, gamma-butyrolactone, isopropanol, methoxymethylpentanol, dipentene, ethyl Amyl Ketone, Methyl Nonyl Ketone, Methyl Ethyl Ketone, Methyl Isoamyl Ketone, Methyl Isoacetone, Methyl Cyrus, Ethyl Cyrus, Methyl Cyrus Acetate, Ethyl Cyrus acetate, butyl carbitol, ethyl carbitol, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monoacetate, ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, propylene glycol, Propylene glycol monoacetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene glycol-tert-butyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol, diethylene glycol monoacetate, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, Dipropylene glycol monoacetate monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoacetate monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monopropyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoacetate mono propyl ether, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutyl acetate, tripropylene glycol methyl ether, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutanol, diisopropyl ether, ethyl isobutyl Ether, diisobutylene, amyl acetate, butyl butyrate, butyl ether, diisobutyl ketone, methylcyclohexene, propyl ether, dihexyl ether, dioxane, n-hexane, n -Pentane, n-octane, diethyl ether, cyclohexanone, ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, methyl lactate, ethyl lactate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, acetic acid Propylene glycol monoethyl ether, methyl pyruvate, ethyl pyruvate, methyl 3-methoxypropionate, methyl ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl 3-methoxypropionate, 3- Ethoxypropionic acid, 3-methoxypropionic acid, propyl 3-methoxypropionate, butyl 3-methoxypropionate, diglyme, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl- 2-Pentanone, 3-Methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropaneamide, 3-ethoxy-N,N-dimethylpropaneamide, 3-butoxy-N,N-diol Methylpropanamide, etc. These may be used alone or in combination.

The SiN film of the second layer has a film thickness of 500 nm and functions as an interlayer insulating film. On the SiN film of the second layer, a comb-shaped pixel electrode formed by patterning an IZO film is arranged as a third layer, and two pixels of a first pixel and a second pixel are formed. The size of each pixel is 10 mm in length and 5 mm in width. At this time, the counter electrode of the first layer and the pixel electrode of the third layer are electrically insulated by the function of the SiN film of the second layer. [0064] The pixel electrode of the third layer has a comb-like shape formed by arranging a plurality of electrode elements having a “く” shape with a curved center portion. The width of each electrode element in the width direction was 3 μm, and the interval between the electrode elements was 6 μm. The pixel electrode that forms each pixel is composed of a plurality of "く"-shaped electrode elements with a curved center portion arranged in a plurality, so the shape of each pixel is not a rectangular shape, but has a similar electrode element that is curved in the center portion. Bold "く" shape. In addition, each pixel is divided up and down with its central curved portion as a boundary, and has a first area on the upper side of the curved portion and a second area on the lower side. [0065] When the first region and the second region of each pixel are compared, the formation directions of the electrode elements constituting these pixel electrodes are different. That is, when the rubbing direction of the liquid crystal alignment film described later is used as a reference, in the first region of the pixel, the electrode elements of the pixel electrode are formed at an angle of +10° (clockwise), and in the second region of the pixel, The electrode elements of the pixel electrode are formed so as to exhibit an angle of -10° (clockwise). In this way, the first region and the second region of each pixel are configured such that the directions of the rotation operations (plane switching) in the substrate plane of the liquid crystal induced by applying a voltage between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode are opposite to each other. direction. Then, after the liquid crystal aligning agent is filtered with the filter of aperture 1.0 μm, each spin-coating is formed on the back side of the prepared above-mentioned electrode-attached substrate and the back side as the opposite substrate with ITO film and a column with a height of 4 μm. The glass substrate of the spacer. Next, after drying on a hot plate at 80° C. for 2 minutes, firing was performed at 230° C. for 20 minutes to obtain a polyimide film having a thickness of 60 nm on each substrate. The polyimide film was rubbed with a rayon cloth in a specific rubbing direction (roller diameter 120mm, drum rotation number 500rpm, moving speed 30mm/sec, pressing amount 0.3mm), and then rubbed in pure rayon. Ultrasonic irradiation was performed in water for 1 minute, and drying was performed at 80° C. for 10 minutes to obtain a liquid crystal alignment film. Using the obtained 2 types of substrates with liquid crystal and alignment film, combined in a way that their respective rubbing directions are anti-parallel, leaving the liquid crystal injection port and sealing the surrounding, making the empty liquid crystal crystal with a liquid crystal cell gap of 3.5 μm cell. After the liquid crystal (MLC-3019, manufactured by Merck & Co., Ltd.) was vacuum-injected at normal temperature in this empty liquid crystal cell, the injection port was sealed to prepare an antiparallel alignment liquid crystal cell. The obtained liquid crystal cell constitutes an FFS mode liquid crystal display element. Then, the obtained liquid crystal cell was heated at 120 degreeC for 1 hour, and was used for each evaluation after standing overnight. [0068] <Evaluation of Liquid Crystal Alignment> Using the above-produced liquid crystal cell, under a constant temperature environment of 60° C., with a frequency of 30 Hz, an AC voltage of 10 VPP was applied for 168 hours. Next, the liquid crystal cell was left in a short-circuited state between the pixel electrode and the counter electrode, and was left directly at room temperature for one day. After being placed, the liquid crystal cell is placed between two polarizers arranged with the polarization axis vertical, the backlight is lit in advance in the state of no voltage application, and the arrangement angle of the liquid crystal cell is adjusted to make the brightness of the transmitted light. reach the minimum. Then, the rotation angle when the liquid crystal cell is rotated from the angle at which the second region of the first pixel is the darkest to the angle at which the first region is the darkest is calculated as the angle Δ. Similarly, for the second pixel, the second area is compared with the first area, and the same angle Δ is calculated. Then, the average value of the angle Δ values of the first pixel and the second pixel was calculated as the angle Δ of the liquid crystal cell. The smaller the angle Δ of the liquid crystal cell, the higher the liquid crystal alignment of the liquid crystal alignment film. <Gardner Color Scale> After the obtained liquid crystal aligning agent was left at room temperature for 24 hours, the Gardner color scale was measured. The Gardner chromaticity indicated by the hue was measured in accordance with Japanese Industrial Standard JIS K 0071-2. It means that the smaller the Gardner chromaticity, the lighter the color of the obtained liquid crystal alignment agent.
