Abstract
Description
この優れたモノマーの一つとして、2,2-ビス(トリフルオロメチル)ベンジジン(TFMB)が挙げられる。TFMBは、フッ素を含有する芳香族ジアミンである。これをポリイミドのモノマーとして導入することで、ポリイミド基板において上記特性が向上することが期待されている。さらに、TFMBは、フッ素を含有する芳香族ジアミンとしては、比較的製造コストが小さいという、産業上極めて重要な利点がある。
これらの理由から、TFMBを使用した樹脂基板の検討が多く行われてきた(特許文献1~5)。
特に、フレキシブルディスプレイ用途で樹脂基板を適用するためには、上記(i)~(iii)の特性に加え、(iv)樹脂の複屈折(リタデーション)が低いことが重要である。これは、鮮明な画像を得るために必要な物性である。リタデーションには、基板の面内方向のリタデーション及び基板の膜厚方向のリタデーション(Rth)があるが、特にRthは、複屈折率が大きいと、画像が二重に見えたり、色がぼやけたりしてしまうということがあるという理由から重要な特性である。しかし、特許文献1~4のいずれにも、TFMBを使用したポリイミドにおいて、Rthは十分低い値を示していないか、開示がない。
本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、i)ジアミンに由来する構造単位として、2,2-ビス(トリフルオロメチル)ベンジジンに由来する構造単位を、ジアミンに由来する全構造単位の60モル%以上含み、ii)テトラカルボン酸二無水物に由来する構造単位として、4,4’-(2,2’-ヘキサフルオロイソプロピリデン)ジフタル酸二無水物及び4,4’-オキシジフタル酸二無水物から選ばれる1種以上に由来する構造単位を、合計で、テトラカルボン酸二無水物に由来する全構造単位の20モル%以上含むものである。そして、本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、イミド化したポリイミドの黄色度(フィルム厚み10μmで換算後)が10以下であり、かつ、引き裂き伝播抵抗が1.0mN/μm以上である。
また、本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、イミド化をしたときのポリイミドの黄色度(フィルム厚み10μmで換算後)が10以下であり、かつ、引き裂き伝播抵抗が1.0mN/μm以上である。
なお、ポリイミド前駆体及びポリイミドの構造単位とその割合は、ジアミンとテトラカルボン酸二無水物の種類と使用割合によって定まるので、構造単位の説明はジアミンと酸二無水物により説明する。ジアミンと酸二無水物の使用割合は、それぞれに由来する構造単位の存在割合とする。
また、1,2,3,4-シクロブタンテトラカルボン酸二無水物(CBDA)、1,2,4,5-シクロヘキサンテトラカルボン酸二無水物(CHDA)は、耐熱性、透明性に優れ、CTEを適切な範囲に制御できることから好ましい。
反応条件の最適化の手法としては、(I) 反応溶媒中での高基質濃度での重合、(II)原料モノマーの仕込み比、(III)ワニスの反応条件(温度、時間)が挙げられる。
(I)高基質濃度での重合を行う場合、原料溶液中の原料モノマーの固形分濃度を調整する。固形分濃度を最適化する場合は、ワニス中の前記ジアミン及びテトラカルボン酸二無水物を含むモノマー群の固形分濃度を、10wt%~40wt%とすることが好ましい。これにより、引き裂き伝播抵抗が高くなる。
一般的に、分子間反応は反応基質濃度を高めることでモノマー分子の衝突確率が高まり反応率が高くなる傾向にある。
しかし、反応基質濃度が高過ぎる、つまりモノマーの溶剤中濃度が40wt%を超えると、高分子量化したポリイミド前駆体が十分溶解せず析出してしまい、薄膜を形成することが著しく困難と成る。上記の観点から、より好ましい下限は12wt%であり、さらに好ましくは17wt%である。また、より好ましい上限は30wt%であり、さらに好ましくは25wt%である。
溶解性または反応活性の低いモノマーを選択した場合は、重合を適正に行うために各モノマーの添加順序を工夫する、有機溶媒中に各モノマーを添加した後に加熱して攪拌する、有機溶媒中に各モノマーを添加した後に超音波を照射する等の工程を加えても良い。
一般的に、酸二無水物とジアミンから付加重合するポリイミドの場合はテトラカルボン酸二無水物/ジアミンのモル比率が1に近いほど、最も分子量が高くなる傾向にある。一方、1から遠いほど、重合反応が進むにつれて末端官能基が酸無水物構造ないしアミノ基のどちらかに偏り末端の反応が進まなくなり高分子量化が進みにくくなる。上述の通り、分子量が過大であると、粘度が高過ぎて、製膜しにくくなる、伸度が低下する等の不具合が起こる傾向にある。一方、分子量が過小であると、ポリイミドの引き裂き伝播抵抗が低下する傾向にある。また、Rthの低減効果が得られない傾向にある。
しかも、各モノマーの反応活性は異なる。従って、酸無水物/ジアミンのモル比率が仕込み比から大きく変動して過大又は過小になり、たとえテトラカルボン酸二無水物/ジアミンのモル比率が仕込みの時点で1であっても十分高い分子量にならない場合もある。それに対し、本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、適切なモノマーを選択し、各モノマーに適したテトラカルボン酸二無水物/ジアミンのモル比率を選択したことで、ポリイミド前駆体のMwを80,000~800,000の範囲内にすることができる。さらに、イミド化したポリイミドの引き裂き伝播抵抗が1.0mN/μm以上になる。
テトラカルボン酸二無水物/ジアミンのモル比率を適切な範囲とするために、有機溶媒に対する各モノマーの添加順を変更する、有機溶媒中に各モノマーを添加した後に加熱して攪拌する、有機溶媒中に各モノマーを添加した後に超音波を照射する等の工程を加えても良い。
それに対し、本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、有機溶剤中の反応温度が高くても、ポリイミド前駆体のMwを80,000~800,000の範囲内にすることができる。具体的な反応温度は35℃~50℃、反応時間は1~10時間とすることが好ましい。このような反応条件でも、得られた本発明のポリイミド前駆体は、Mwが80,000~800,000の範囲内になるとともに、イミド化したポリイミドの引き裂き伝播抵抗が1.0mN/μm以上になる。
特にRthを低く抑える観点から、加熱温度は40℃~50℃が好ましく、また、加熱時間は1~6時間が好ましく、1~4時間がより好ましい。
特に6FDAを使用した場合は、上記工程によって、ポリイミドのRthが低く抑えられ、Rth(フィルム厚み10μmで換算後)が65nm以下になる。
また、ODPAを使用した場合は、厚みが5~20μm程度の薄膜ポリイミドフィルムとしたときでも伸びに優れる。具体的には、厚みが10μm程度のポリイミドフィルムでは伸び(「伸度」ともいう。)が20%以上であり、厚みが6μm程度のポリイミドフィルムでも、伸びが10%以上の値を保持することができる。さらに組成を最適化することで、厚みが10μm程度のポリイミドフィルムの伸びに対する、厚みが6μm程度のポリイミドフィルムの伸びが70%以上を保持することができる。
近年、電子機器の小型化・軽量化が進んでいるため、フレキシブルデバイスにおいても、従来より薄いものが求められてきている。ODPAを使用した場合、このような用途において、特に好適に使用することができる。
熱イミド化は、ガラス、金属、樹脂などの任意の支持基材上に、ポリイミド前駆体を、アプリケーターを用いて塗布し、150℃以下の温度で2~60分予備乾燥し、溶媒を除去した後、イミド化のために通常、室温から段階的に温度を昇温し、450℃までに10分~20時間程度熱処理することにより行われる。必要な機械特性に応じて、熱処理温度を変更することは可能である。好ましくは、ポリイミドの耐熱性、機械強度の観点から、イミド化のための熱処理の最高温度が350℃~450℃であり、より好ましくは、360℃~400℃である。また、熱イミド化において、酸二無水物やジアミンの種類、溶剤の種類の組み合わせを選択すれば、イミド化が比較的短時間で完了し、予備加熱を含め熱処理は60分間以内で行うことも可能である。なお、ポリイミド前駆体を塗布する際、ポリイミド前駆体を公知の溶媒に溶解させたポリイミド前駆体溶液として、塗布してもよい。
化学イミド化は、ポリイミド前駆体溶液に脱水剤と触媒を加え、30℃~60℃で化学的に脱水を行う。代表的な脱水剤としては無水酢酸が、触媒としてはピリジンが例示される。
化学イミド化は、不純物が混入しやく、工程が煩雑という懸念があることから、熱イミド化法により行うことが好ましい。
なお、一種類のポリイミド前駆体をイミド化しても良いし、二種類以上のポリイミド前駆体を混合し、一度にイミド化してよい。
なお、6FDA及びODPAを併用する場合、Mwの好ましい下限は、6FDA及びODPAのモル分率から求めることができる。即ち、ポリイミド前駆体及びポリイミドにおける6FDA及びOPDAの使用量の合計をαモル、6FDAの使用量をβモル、6FDAを使用しODPAを使用しない場合の好ましいMwの下限をγ、ODPAを使用し6FDAを使用しない場合の好ましいMwの下限をδとした場合、Mwの好ましい下限εは、
ε = γ×β/α + δ×(α-β)/α
で表される。
好ましくは、(1)ポリイミド前駆体を含む樹脂溶液(樹脂組成物)を、支持基材上に塗布した後、乾燥、熱処理(イミド化)する方法、(2)液相中でイミド化まで完了させた樹脂溶液を支持基材上に塗布乾燥する方法、(3)別途作製したポリイミドフィルムを別の支持基材上に張り付ける方法のいずれかによって、ポリイミド積層体を得ることができる。生産効率の観点からは、前記(1)の方法のように支持基材上でイミド化を行い、そのまま積層体とし、必要によりこれを剥離してフィルムとすることが望ましい。ここで、支持基材としては、ポリイミド層形成時の加熱に耐えうる耐熱性や、ポリイミド積層体から支持基材を剥離する際の剥離性を担保できれば、樹脂基材、ガラス基材、金属基材等、公知のものを適用できる。好ましくは、ポリイミド層の低Rthの観点から、ガラス及びポリイミドフィルムであり、より好ましくは、ポリイミドフィルムである。
