[0293] [Preparation of polymer composition]

[0294] The polymer composition used in the present invention is preferably prepared in the form of a coating liquid so as to be suitable for forming a liquid crystal aligning film. That is, the polymer composition used in the present invention is preferably prepared in the form of a solution in which a resin component for forming a resin coating is dissolved in an organic solvent. Here, the resin component refers to a resin component containing the above-mentioned photosensitive side chain type polymer capable of expressing liquid crystallinity. In this case, the content of the resin component is preferably 1% by mass to 20% by mass, more preferably 3% by mass to 15% by mass, particularly preferably 3% by mass to 10% by mass.

[0295] In the polymer composition of this embodiment, the above-mentioned resin components may all be the above-mentioned photosensitive side-chain polymers capable of exhibiting liquid crystallinity,...

[0381] The liquid crystal phase transition temperature of the polymer obtained in the examples was measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) DSC3100SR (manufactured by Mac Systems).

Synthetic example 1

[0383] MA1 (15.29 g, 46 mmol) and MA2 (56.37 g, 184 mmol) were dissolved in THF (655.1 g), and after degassing with a diaphragm pump, AIBN (1.13 g, 6.9 mmol) was added and degassed again. Then, it was made to react at 60 degreeC for 20 hours, and the polymer solution of the methacrylate was obtained. This polymer solution was added dropwise to diethyl ether (7000 ml), and the resulting precipitate was filtered. This deposit was wash|cleaned with diethyl ether, and it dried under reduced pressure in 40 degreeC oven, and obtained the methacrylate polymer powder. The polymer had a number average molecular weight of 15,000 and a weight average molecular weight of 40,500.

[0384] The liquid crystal phase transition temperature of the obtained methacrylate polymer was 120°C to 185°C.

[0385] NMP (54.0g) was added to the obtained methacrylate polymer powder (6.0g), and it stirred and melt|dissolved at room temperature for 5 hours. BC (40.0g) was added and stirred to this s...

Abstract

The present invention provides an in-plane-switching liquid-crystal display element having superior burn-in properties and to which an orientation control ability has been imparted at a high efficiency. The present invention achieves same by means of a method that is for producing a substrate having a liquid crystal orientation film for an in-plane-switching liquid-crystal display element to which an orientation control ability has been imparted and that obtains the liquid crystal orientation film by means of having: [I] a step for forming a coating film by applying onto a substrate having a conductive film for in-plane switching a polymer composition containing (A) a photosensitive side-chain polymer exhibiting liquid crystal properties in a predetermined temperature range and (B) an organic solvent; [II] a step for radiating polarized ultraviolet rays at the coating film obtained in [I]; [III] a step for heating the coating film obtained in [II]; and [IV] a step for cooling the coating film heated in [III] to a temperature less than the glass transition temperature of the surface of the coating film, and then re-heating to a temperature that is at least the glass transition temperature.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film for a transverse electric field drive type liquid crystal display element. More specifically, it relates to a new method for producing a liquid crystal display element excellent in image sticking characteristics. Background technique [0002] Liquid crystal display devices are known as display devices that are light in weight, thin in cross-section, and low in power consumption. In recent years, they have been used in large-scale television applications, etc., and have achieved remarkable development. The liquid crystal display element is constituted, for example, by sandwiching a liquid crystal layer between a pair of transparent substrates provided with electrodes. Also, in a liquid crystal display element, an organic film containing an organic material is used as a liquid crystal alignment film to make liquid crystals exhibit a desired ali...
