Definitions
- This invention relates to a nematic liquid crystal composition which exhibits a resistivity of at least 1 ⁇ 10 11 ⁇ cm, characterized in that it contains 1 to 10,000 ppm of a crown ether.
- LCD liquid crystalline display devices
- a LCD even may become breed ON state" due to the same electrostatic effect, if such a device is touched or rubbed by clothes in order to clean it.
- the Japanese laid-open application JP 4-028-788 suggest to improve the electrostatic behavior of a LCD by reducing the specific resistivity of the liquid crystal by doping it with a cryptand.
- the resulting liquid crystal compositions have specific resistivities of less than 1 ⁇ 10 10 ⁇ cm.
- a method of reducing the sodium ions in LCD's by adding crown ethers to the liquid crystal is dislosed in the Japanese laid-open application JP 5-088-148.
- the Japanese laid-open application JP 54-106-084 discloses that the crosstalk of multiplexed LCD's can be reduced by adding crown ethers or cryptands to the liquid crystal.
- nematic liquid crystalline compositions with specific resistance of 1 ⁇ 10 11 ⁇ cm being doped with up to 10,000 ppm of a crown ether are suitable to reduce the electrostatic problems of a LCD.
- nematic liquid crystal composition which exhibits a resistivity of at least 1 ⁇ 10 11 ⁇ cm, characterized in that it contains 1 to 10,000 ppm of a crown ether.
- a further object of the invention is to provide a method of improving the electrostatic behavior of a LCD with the aid of such a composition.
- the nematic liquid crystal composition according to the invention are preferably doped by a crown ether.
- the expression crown ether in-dudes cyclic polyethers and the corresponding benzo derivatives. They are preferably cyclic compounds of formula A or B
- n is an integer between 4 and 8, in particular a compound of formula Aa or Ba
- nematic compositions according to the invention make it possible to achieve a high value for the specific resistance simultaneously accompanied by a fast discharge of the electrostatic charge, as a result of which outstanding LCD's can be achieved.
- the specific resistivity of the inventive compositions is > 1 ⁇ 10 11 ⁇ cm, preferably between 2 ⁇ 10 11 and 1 ⁇ 10 14 ⁇ cm.
- the discharge time depends on the amount of the added crown ether. As a rule, even only 1 ppm of the crown ether yields a reduction of the discharge time of at least 30 %, depending on the type of the un-doped composition the discharge time is reduced of 50 to 85 % with the aid of 1 ppm of the crown ether. Therefore, the content of the crown ether in the composition is preferably less than 10,000 ppm, preferably 1 to 1,000 ppm.

Both these types of display preferably operate in the first transmission minimum as suggested by Gooch and Tarry (e.g. CH. Gooch, H.A. Tarry, Electron. Lett. 10, 2-4, 1974).
