Problems solved by technology

However, the spacer particle dispersion sprayed onto the substrate may contain impurities, and the liquid crystal or alignment film may be contaminated by impurities.
In addition, when the dispersibility of the spacer particles in the spacer particle dispersion is poor, or the spacer particle dispersion contains impurities, the spacer particles are difficult to be fixed on the substrate during the drying process of the liquid droplets ejected on the substrate, so that There is a case where spacer particles cannot be placed under the shading area
[0016] Thus, in the conventional method of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device, the display quality such as color tone and contrast of the manufactured liquid crystal display device cannot be sufficiently improved.

Embodiment 1～13、 comparative example 1～3

[0297] (Preparation of spacer particle dispersion)

[0298] Take a necessary amount of spacer particles obtained by the method described above to reach a predetermined particle concentration, slowly add them to the solvent of the composition listed in Table 1 below, and stir sufficiently while using a sonicator, Spread it out. Thereafter, aggregates were removed by filtration through a stainless steel mesh having a mesh size of 10 μm, and spacer particle dispersions S1 to S8 were obtained. The surface tension of the obtained spacer particle dispersion was measured by the Wilhelmy method using a platinum plate. The results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0299] (production of substrate)

[0300] As the first substrate for the liquid crystal test panel, a color filter substrate was used, and as the second substrate, a liquid crystal display device substrate (TFT array dummy substrate) imitating the steps on the TFT array substrate was used.

Abstract

This invention provides a process for producing a liquid crystal display device that can dispose spacer particles at positions corresponding to a nonpixel region on a substrate through an improvement in a spacer particle dispersion liquid. The production process is a process for producing a liquid crystal display device having a pixel region and a nonpixel region and comprises the step of delivering a spacer particle dispersion liquid containing spacer particles (14) dispersed therein onto a surface of a first substrate (2) or a second substrate (3) with an ink jet device to place the spacer particles (14) at specific positions corresponding to the nonpixel region. In the step of disposing the spacer particles (14), the liquid contact part in an ink chamber containing the spacer particle dispersion liquid in a head of the ink jet device is formed of a hydrophilic material having a surface tension of not less than 31 mN / m, and the surface tension of the spacer particle dispersion liquid is not less than 33 mN / m and not more than a value of (surface tension of the liquid contact part + 2 mN / m).
