Abstract
Description
近年、スマートフォンや携帯電話などのモバイル用途向けに、液晶表示素子が用いられている。これら用途では、できるだけ多くの表示面を確保するため、液晶表示素子の基板間を接着させるために用いるシール剤の幅を、従来に比べて狭くする必要がある。さらに、上述した理由により、シール剤の位置を、シール剤との接着性が弱い液晶配向膜の端部に接した位置、あるいは液晶配向膜の上部にすることも求められている。このような場合、特に高温高湿条件下での使用では、シール剤と液晶配向膜との間から水が混入しやすくなり、液晶表示素子の額縁付近に表示ムラが発生してしまう。
この問題を解決する為、特定構造の添加剤を用いる液晶配向剤が提案されている(特許文献1参照)。 The liquid crystal display element is configured by sandwiching a liquid crystal layer by a pair of transparent substrates provided with electrodes. And in a liquid crystal display element, the organic film which consists of organic materials is used as a liquid crystal aligning film so that a liquid crystal may be in a desired orientation state between board | substrates. That is, the liquid crystal alignment film is a component of the liquid crystal display element, and is formed on the surface of the substrate holding the liquid crystal in contact with the liquid crystal, and plays a role of orienting the liquid crystal in a certain direction between the substrates.
In recent years, liquid crystal display devices have been used for mobile applications such as smartphones and mobile phones. In these applications, in order to secure as many display surfaces as possible, it is necessary to narrow the width of the sealing agent used to bond the substrates of the liquid crystal display element as compared with the prior art. Furthermore, for the reason described above, it is also required to position the sealing agent at a position in contact with the end of the liquid crystal alignment film having weak adhesion to the sealing agent, or at the top of the liquid crystal alignment film. In such a case, particularly when used under high temperature and high humidity conditions, water is likely to be mixed in between the sealing agent and the liquid crystal alignment film, and display unevenness occurs in the vicinity of the frame of the liquid crystal display element.
In order to solve this problem, a liquid crystal aligning agent using an additive having a specific structure has been proposed (see Patent Document 1).
そこで本発明は、シール剤と液晶配向膜との接着性を高め、高温高湿条件下において液晶表示素子の額縁付近の表示ムラの発生を抑制することのできる液晶配向剤を提供することを目的とする。 Among them, it is known that in the property improvement from the sealing agent, it is difficult to simultaneously achieve the adhesion property between the sealing agent and the liquid crystal alignment film and the moisture permeation preventing property of the sealing agent. Characteristic improvement is required.
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a liquid crystal aligning agent capable of enhancing the adhesion between a sealing agent and a liquid crystal aligning film and suppressing the occurrence of display unevenness in the vicinity of a frame of a liquid crystal display element under high temperature and high humidity conditions. I assume.
