Problems solved by technology

Conventional liquid crystal aligning films were not sufficiently resistant to such harsh environments
[0009] However, conventionally known liquid crystal aligning agents have been pointed out that printing defects such as printing unevenness and pinholes may occur at a certain rate on the coating film formed by using them, and the product yield rate at the time of liquid crystal aligning film production is insufficient.
Regarding the liquid crystal aligning agent, in order to ensure both the performance of the formed liquid crystal aligning film and the solubility of the printability, the industry has continued to study for many years, but there is still a certain limit to the product yield when the liquid crystal aligning film is manufactured.

Embodiment 1

[0229] (1) Preparation of liquid crystal aligning agent

[0230] The polymer (PA-1) obtained in the synthesis example PA-1 is dissolved in a mixed solvent comprising N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and butyl cellosolve (BC) (the solvent composition is NMP; BC = 50:50 (weight ratio)) to prepare a solution having a polymer concentration of 6.0% by weight. The liquid crystal aligning agent was obtained by filtering this solution with the filter of 1 micrometer of pore diameters.

[0231] (2) Evaluation of printability

[0232] The printability of the liquid crystal aligning agent prepared above was evaluated.

[0233] First, using an offset-type liquid crystal alignment film printer (manufactured by Nippon Photo Printing Co., Ltd.), the liquid crystal alignment agent was coated on the transparent electrode surface of a glass substrate with a transparent electrode comprising an ITO film, and the After heating (pre-baking) on ​​a hot plate for 1 minute to remove the solvent, heat (...

Embodiment 2~ Embodiment 6 and comparative example 1

[0257] Except having made the kind and quantity of the polymer used for preparing a liquid crystal aligning agent into Table 2, respectively, the liquid crystal aligning agent was prepared similarly to the said Example 1, and the liquid crystal display element was manufactured and evaluated.

[0258] The evaluation results are shown in Table 2.

[0260]

[0261] Furthermore, in addition to changing the patterns of the ITO electrodes on the glass substrate as figure 2 as well as image 3 Except for the herringbone electrode pattern shown, the liquid crystal display element was manufactured similarly to the said Example 1 using the liquid crystal aligning agent in said Example 1 - Example 6, respectively, and it evaluated. Also in this case, it was confirmed that the same effects as those of Examples 1 to 6 were exhibited.

Embodiment 7

[0263] (1) Preparation of liquid crystal aligning agent

[0264] The polymer (PA-6) obtained in the synthesis example PA-6 was dissolved in a mixture containing N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), γ-butyrolactone (GBL) and butyl cellosolve (BC). In a solvent (solvent composition: NMP:GBL:BC=40:40:20 (weight ratio)), a solution having a polymer concentration of 3.0% by weight was prepared. The liquid crystal aligning agent was obtained by filtering this solution with the filter of 1 micrometer of pore diameters.

[0265] (2) Manufacture of FFS type liquid crystal display element 1

[0266] Made as Figure 4 The FFS type liquid crystal display element shown.

[0267] Firstly, a glass substrate having an electrode pair on which a bottom electrode without a pattern, a silicon nitride film as an insulating layer, and an upper electrode patterned into a comb-like shape is sequentially formed on one side, and the opposite side without an electrode The glass substrate was used as a pair...
