Definitions
- the present invention relates to a liquid crystal aligning agent containing a crosslinkable compound into which a structure (photoreactive group) that causes photopolymerization by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is introduced, a liquid crystal alignment film obtained using the same, and a liquid crystal display element About.
- a structure photoreactive group
- UV ultraviolet
- VA vertical alignment
- the VA method includes an MVA method (Multi-Vertical Alignment) in which protrusions for controlling the direction in which the liquid crystal is tilted are formed on the TFT substrate or the color filter substrate, and a direction in which the liquid crystal is tilted by forming an slit in the ITO electrode of the substrate.
- MVA Multi-Vertical Alignment
- a PVA Plasma Vertical Alignment
- Another alignment method is a PSA (Polymer Sustained Alignment) method.
- the PSA method is a technology that has attracted attention in recent years.
- This method increases the response speed of the liquid crystal by adding a photopolymerizable compound to the liquid crystal composition and irradiating the liquid crystal panel with ultraviolet rays while the liquid crystal is tilted after applying the electric field after the liquid crystal panel is manufactured.
- Technology see Patent Document 1.
- a liquid crystal cell prepared using a liquid crystal composition containing a photopolymerizable compound and a liquid crystal alignment film made of polyimide or the like was irradiated with ultraviolet rays while applying a voltage, a photopolymerization reaction occurred and the liquid crystal molecules were tilted.
- a polymer structure in which the direction is memorized is formed on the liquid crystal alignment film.
- the alignment direction of the liquid crystal is fixed and a pretilt is generated, so that a liquid crystal display element having a better response speed can be obtained as compared with the method of controlling the inclination direction of the liquid crystal molecules only by the protrusions and slits.
- This PSA method can be operated even in a structure in which a slit is formed in one electrode constituting a liquid crystal panel, and a protrusion such as MVA or a slit such as PVA is not provided in the opposite electrode pattern. It has a feature that simplification and excellent panel transmittance can be obtained (see Patent Document 2).
- the PSA type liquid crystal display element has a problem that the solubility of the photopolymerizable compound added to the liquid crystal is low, and when the addition amount is increased, it is precipitated at a low temperature. On the other hand, if the addition amount of the photopolymerizable compound is reduced, a good alignment state and response speed cannot be obtained. Moreover, since the unreacted photopolymerizable compound remaining in the liquid crystal becomes an impurity in the liquid crystal, there is a problem that the reliability of the liquid crystal display element is lowered.
- An object of this invention is to provide the liquid crystal aligning agent excellent in the storage stability at the time of frozen storage used for a vertical alignment film. Furthermore, an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal display element that is produced using the liquid crystal aligning agent and exhibits a good response speed.

Even if it is small, it has been confirmed that it remains in the liquid crystal alignment film.

本発明で添加される化合物は、母核部分にあたる式[1]のL-M-Rに光反応性基(Py)と架橋性基(CL)が複数結合しているため、化合物同士のパッキングが阻害されており、結晶化しにくい構造になっている。このため、冷凍保存しても析出を起こさないものと推測される。また、本発明で添加される化合物は架橋性基(CL)を有しているため、焼成時に重合体と反応する。このため、昇華しにくく、効率よく液晶配向膜中に光反応性基を組み込むことができるため、UV照射後に応答速度を向上させることが可能となっていると推測される。
本発明の光反応性基を有する架橋性化合物は、2価以上の有機基からなる母核に、2個以上の重合性基(Py)と10個以下の架橋基(CL)とが結合してなる構造を有する化合物であり、下記の式[1]で表わされる。

本発明の液晶配向剤が含有する液晶配向能を有する液晶配向膜を形成する重合体は、基板上に形成された液晶配向膜上の液晶を配向させることができるものであれば特に限定されず、例えば、基板上に形成された液晶配向膜上の液晶を基板に対して垂直に配向させることができる重合体が挙げられる。このような、基板上に形成された液晶配向膜上の液晶を基板に対して垂直に配向させることができる重合体としては、液晶を垂直に配向させる側鎖を有する重合体が好ましく、液晶を垂直に配向させる側鎖を有するポリイミド前駆体や該ポリイミド前駆体をイミド化させて得られるポリイミドが挙げられる。

ポリアミック酸の製造において、テトラカルボン酸又はその誘導体のモル数に対する、ジアミン成分のモル数の比は0.8~1.2であることが好ましく、0.9~1.1であることがより好ましい。通常の重縮合反応同様、このモル比が1.0に近いほど生成するポリアミック酸の分子量は大きくなる。

本発明においては、上記の重合溶媒を複数種混合して用いてもよい。
その際、用いる溶媒(以下、添加溶媒ともいう)は、重合溶媒と同じでもよいし、別の溶媒でもよい。この添加溶媒は、ポリシロキサンが均一に溶解している限りにおいて特に限定されず、一種でも複数種でも任意に選択して用いることができる。
本発明の液晶配向剤は、通常、液晶配向膜を作製する際に、基板上に10~1000nmの均一な薄膜を形成する必要があることから、光反応性基含有架橋性化合物と重合体成分に加えて、これらの成分を溶解させる有機溶媒を含有する塗布液であることが好ましい。本発明の液晶配向剤が上記有機溶媒を含有する場合は、塗布により均一な薄膜を形成するという観点から、有機溶媒の含有量は、液晶配向剤中、90~99質量%が好ましく、92~97質量%がより好ましい。これらの含有量は、目的とする液晶配向膜の膜厚によって適宜変更することができる。

合成例で得られた液晶配向剤を-20℃の冷凍庫で1週間保存したのちに液晶配向剤中に析出物が無いか試験した。目視で析出物が確認できるものを保存安定性悪い、目視で確認できないものを保存安定性良好とした。各液晶配向剤の保存安定性試験の結果を表1に示す。
実施例1~6及び比較例1~2で得られた各液晶配向剤を用いて下記に示すような手順で液晶セルの作製を行った。
液晶配向剤を、画素サイズが100μm×300μmでライン/スペースがそれぞれ5μmのITO電極パターンが形成されているITO電極基板のITO面にスピンコートし、80℃のホットプレートで90秒間乾燥した後、200℃の熱風循環式オーブンで30分間焼成を行い、膜厚100nmの液晶配向膜が形成された基板を作製した。
また、当該基板作製に用いた液晶配向剤を、電極パターンが形成されていないITO面にスピンコートし、80℃のホットプレートで90秒乾燥させた後、200℃の熱風循環式オーブンで30分間焼成を行い、膜厚100nmの液晶配向膜が形成された基板を作製した。
得られた液晶セルの応答速度を、下記方法により測定した。その後、この液晶セルに20Vp-pの電圧を印加した状態で、この液晶セルの外側から365nmのバンドパスフィルターを通したUVを20J/cm2照射した。その後、再び応答速度を測定し、UV照射前後での応答速度を比較した。結果を表1に示す。
まず、バックライト、クロスニコルの状態にしたい一組の偏光版、光量検出器の順で構成される測定装置において、一組の偏光版の間に上記で作製した液晶セルを配置した。このときライン/スペースが形成されているITO電極のパターンがクロスニコルに対して45°の角度になるようにした。そして、上記の液晶セルに電圧±4V、周波数1kHzの矩形波を印加し、光量検出器によって観測される輝度が飽和するまでの変化をオシロスコープにて取り込み、電圧を印加していない時の輝度を0%、±4Vの電圧を印加し、飽和した輝度の値を100%として、輝度が10%から90%まで変化するのにかかる時間を応答速度とした。
また、通常、環構造の母核を持つ重合性化合物は溶解性に乏しく、冷凍保存時に析出したり、配向剤の種類によっては溶解しないのに対し、本発明の架橋剤は、架橋部位が環構造同士の相互作用を抑制するため溶解性が高く、冷凍保存しても析出が起こらないため保存安定性に優れていることが確認された。
