Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a resist composition for a black matrix and a black matrix. Background Art

[0002] In image display devices using liquid crystal, plasma, etc., a light-shielding film (black matrix, also known as "black matrix") is provided in the gaps between the colored patterns in the screen display area and the edges of the surrounding parts of the display area, and also on the external light side of the TFT in a liquid crystal display using TFT.

[0003] Furthermore, in liquid crystal display devices, it is mainly used to prevent leakage from backlight from entering the screen. In plasma display devices, it is mainly used to prevent bleeding caused by the confusion of different colored lights from entering the screen, thereby helping to improve display characteristics (contrast and color purity).

[0004] For example, color filters for converting white light from the backlight source of a liquid crystal display device into colored light are usually manufactured by forming pixels of different hues of red, green, and blue in a striped or mosaic pattern on the surface of a transparent substrate such as glass or plastic sheet formed with a black matrix.

[0005] Furthermore, even in touch panels that align an image display device with a position input device, a color filter formed with a black matrix as a light-shielding film is utilized. Previously, this was typically formed on the side opposite the sensor substrate, separated by a protective glass sheet. However, with the growing demand for lighter touch panels, technology is being developed to achieve even greater weight reduction by simultaneously forming a light-shielding film and a touch sensor on the same side of a protective glass sheet.

[0006] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique in which a specific pigment and carbon black are used in combination as colorants in a photosensitive coloring composition for forming color spacers, and the content ratio of the carbon black is set within a specific range, thereby imparting shielding properties and the like.

[0007] In recent years, image display devices have tended to be used in various scenarios such as mobile use.

[0008] As the use of such image display devices expands, a stronger black matrix is ​​required.

[0009] As a method for strengthening the black matrix, a method of applying a high-temperature and long-term post-bake is sometimes used.

[0010] However, conventional resist compositions for black matrices have a problem in that their surface resistance decreases when they are subjected to high-temperature and long-term post-baking, and there is still room for improvement.

[0012] Patent Literature

[0013] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2016-177190 Summary of the Invention

[0014] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0015] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a resist composition for a black matrix, which can form a black matrix whose surface resistance does not decrease even after post-baking at a high temperature and for a long time.

[0016] Means used to solve problems

[0017] The present inventors have discovered that by using a black colorant, an alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group, a photopolymerization initiator, an organic solvent, and an oxazine compound, and using a compound having a specific structure as the oxazine compound, a black matrix resist composition can be obtained that can form a black matrix whose surface resistance does not decrease even after high-temperature and long-term post-baking, thereby completing the present invention.

[0018] Specifically, the present invention provides a resist composition for a black matrix comprising a black colorant, an alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group, a photopolymerization initiator, an organic solvent, and an oxazine compound, wherein the oxazine compound is a compound represented by the following general formula (1) and / or (2).

[0019]

[0020] In the general formula (1), R 1 and R 2 represents an alkyl group or an aryl group optionally containing an unsaturated bond, and is optionally the same as or different from each other. 1 represents any one of the linking groups represented by the following formulae (3) to (5).

[0021] In the general formula (2), R 3 and R 4 represents an alkyl group or an aryl group optionally containing an unsaturated bond, and is optionally the same as or different from each other. 2 It is a divalent linking group.

[0022]

[0023] -O-(5)

[0024] In the resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention, the content of the oxazine compound is preferably 0.1% by mass to 15% by mass in terms of mass fraction relative to the total solid content.

[0025] The present invention also provides a black matrix formed using the resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention.

[0026] Hereinafter, the resist composition for black matrices of the present invention and the black matrix formed therefrom will be described in detail.

[0027] <Resist composition for black matrix>

[0028] The resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention comprises a black colorant, an alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group, a photopolymerization initiator, an organic solvent, and an oxazine compound. The oxazine compound is a compound represented by the general formula (1) and / or (2).

[0029] (black colorant)

[0030] The resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention contains a black colorant.

[0031] The black colorant is carbon black having an average primary particle size of 20 to 60 nm, and among them, neutral carbon black having an average primary particle size of 20 to 60 nm and / or acidic carbon black having an average primary particle size of 20 to 60 nm are preferred.

[0032] When the primary particle size of the black colorant is less than 20 nm or greater than 60 nm, the black colorant may not have sufficient light-shielding properties and may also have poor storage stability.

[0033] In addition, the said average primary particle size is the value of the arithmetic mean particle size based on electron microscope observation.

[0034] When the neutral carbon black and the acidic carbon black are used in combination, the mixing ratio (mass ratio) of the neutral carbon black to the acidic carbon black is preferably 85 / 15 to 15 / 85, and more preferably 75 / 25 to 40 / 60.

[0035] When the ratio of neutral carbon black in the above-mentioned carbon black is higher than 85 / 15, the sealing strength may be reduced. When the ratio of acidic carbon black is lower than 15 / 85, the development margin (development latitude) and fine line adhesion (adhesion) may be reduced.

[0036] The above-mentioned acidic carbon black and neutral carbon black will be described.

[0037] Carbon black can be divided into acidic carbon and neutral carbon based on its surface structure. Acidic carbon is a carbonaceous material, either native or artificially acidified, that exhibits acidity when mixed with distilled water and boiled. On the other hand, neutral carbon is known to exhibit a pH at or above neutral when mixed with distilled water and boiled.

[0038] As the above-mentioned neutral carbon black, the pH is preferably in the range of 8.0 to 10.0. Specifically, the examples include: Printex25 (average primary particle size 56 nm, pH 9.5), Printex35 (average primary particle size 31 nm, pH 9.5), Printex65 (average primary particle size 21 nm, pH 9.5) manufactured by Orion Engineered Carbons Co., Ltd., MA#20 (average primary particle size 40 nm, pH 8.0), MA#40 (average primary particle size 40 nm, pH 8.0), MA#30 (average primary particle size 30 nm, pH 8.0) manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, etc.

[0039] As the above-mentioned acidic carbon black, the pH is preferably in the range of 2.0 to 4.0. Specifically, there can be mentioned: Raven 1080 (average primary particle size 28 nm, pH 2.4), Raven 1100 (average primary particle size 32 nm, pH 2.9) manufactured by COLUMBIACHEMICAL, MA-8 (average primary particle size 24 nm, pH 3.0), MA-100 (average primary particle size 22 nm, pH 3.5) manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, SPECIAL BLACK 250 (average primary particle size 56 nm, pH 3.0), SPECIAL BLACK 350 (average primary particle size 31 nm, pH 3.0), SPECIAL BLACK 550 (average primary particle size 25 nm, pH 4.0) manufactured by Orion Engineered Carbons, etc.

[0040] As the black colorant, SPECIALBLACK 250 is preferred from the viewpoints of pigment dispersibility and ensuring resistance value.

[0041] In addition, 1 g of carbon black was added to 20 ml of distilled water (pH 7.0) from which carbon dioxide had been removed and mixed with a magnetic stirrer to prepare an aqueous suspension. The pH (German Industrial Product Standard DIN ISO 787 / 9) was measured at 25°C using a glass electrode.

[0042] The content of the black colorant is preferably 3 to 70% by mass, more preferably 10 to 50% by mass, relative to the total solid content of the resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention.

[0043] When the content of the black colorant is less than 3% by mass, the light-shielding property of a black matrix formed may be reduced. When the content exceeds 70% by mass, it may be difficult to disperse the pigment.

[0044] (Alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group)

[0045] The resist composition for black matrices of the present invention contains an alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group.

[0046] The alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group preferably functions as a binder for the black colorant and is soluble in a developer, particularly an alkaline developer, used in a development step during production of a black matrix.

[0047] The alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group may be a block copolymer. By using a block copolymer, the pigment dispersibility can be improved compared to other copolymers, and solubility in PGMEA and alkaline developer can be imparted.

[0048] Among the block copolymers, block copolymers of a block composed of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having one or more carboxyl groups and a block composed of another copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer are preferred.

[0049] The block copolymer is not particularly limited, and conventionally used block copolymers can be used. Specifically, examples include copolymers of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a carboxyl group, such as acrylic acid or methacrylic acid, and at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer selected from the group consisting of monomers and oligomers copolymerizable with the ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a carboxyl group, such as styrene, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, allyl acrylate, allyl methacrylate, benzyl acrylate, benzyl methacrylate, cyclohexyl acrylate, cyclohexyl methacrylate, glycerol monoacrylate, glycerol methacrylate, N-phenylmaleimide, polystyrene macromonomers, polymethyl methacrylate macromonomers, and carboepoxy diacrylate.

[0050] However, it is preferred not to use: N-vinylpyrrolidone, monomers containing sulfur elements.

[0051] As the block copolymer, a block resin synthesized by living radical polymerization or anionic polymerization can be used.

[0052] A part of the block portion of the block copolymer may be composed of a random copolymer.

[0053] As the alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group, an alkali-soluble Cardo resin may be used.

[0054] Examples of the alkali-soluble cardo resin include epoxy (meth)acrylate acid adducts having a fluorene skeleton, which are addition products of a fluorene epoxy (meth)acrylate derivative and dicarboxylic anhydride and / or tetracarboxylic dianhydride.

[0055] Furthermore, the alkali-soluble resin may have a photopolymerizable functional group.

[0056] The acid value of the alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group is preferably 5 to 200 mgKOH / g, more preferably 30 to 180 mgKOH / g, further preferably 50 to 150 mgKOH / g, and particularly preferably 70 to 120 mgKOH / g, from the viewpoint of development properties.

[0057] In this specification, the acid value is a theoretical acid value, which is a value arithmetically determined based on the ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a carboxyl group and its content.

[0058] The weight average molecular weight of the alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group is preferably 1,000 to 100,000, more preferably 5,000 to 50,000, and even more preferably 10,000 to 30,000, from the viewpoint of developing properties and solubility in organic solvents.

[0059] In the present invention, the weight average molecular weight is a polystyrene-equivalent weight average molecular weight obtained by GPC.

[0060] In this specification, Water 2690 (manufactured by Waters Corporation) is used as an apparatus for measuring the weight average molecular weight, and PLgel 5 μm MIXED-D (manufactured by Agilent Technologies) is used as a column.

[0061] The content of the alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group is preferably 1 to 200 parts by mass, more preferably 10 to 150 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the black colorant.

[0062] In this case, when the content of the above-mentioned alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group is less than 1 part by mass, the developing characteristics are sometimes reduced. When the content of the above-mentioned alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group exceeds 200 parts by mass, since the concentration of the above-mentioned black colorant is relatively reduced, it is difficult to achieve the target color concentration (color density) as a film.

[0063] The alkali-soluble resin having a carboxyl group preferably does not contain any of primary, secondary, and tertiary amino groups, more preferably does not contain a quaternary amino group, and more preferably does not contain a basic group.

[0064] Furthermore, an alkali-soluble resin having a structure other than the block copolymer may be blended within a range not impairing the effects of the present invention.

[0065] (Photopolymerization initiator)

[0066] The resist composition for black matrices of the present invention contains a photopolymerization initiator.

[0067] The photopolymerization initiator is not particularly limited as long as it is a photopolymerization initiator that can generate free radicals or cations by irradiation with active energy rays such as ultraviolet rays and electron beams, and examples thereof include 1-[9-ethyl-6-(2-methylbenzoyl)-9H-carbazol-3-one]-1-(O-acetyl oxime), benzophenone, N,N'-tetraethyl-4,4'-diaminobenzophenone, 4-methoxy-4'-dimethylaminobenzophenone, 2,2-diethoxyacetophenone, benzoin, benzoin methyl ether, Photopolymerization initiators such as benzophenones such as benzoin isobutyl ether, benzyl dimethyl ketal, α-hydroxyisobutylbenzophenone, thioxanthone, 2-chlorothioxanthone, 1-hydroxycyclohexylbenzophenone, tert-butylanthraquinone, 1-chloroanthraquinone, 2,3-dichloroanthraquinone, 3-chloro-2-methylanthraquinone, 2-ethylanthraquinone, 1,4-naphthoquinone, 1,2-benzoquinidone, 1,4-dimethylanthraquinone, 2-phenylanthraquinone, and 2-methyl-1[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholinopropane-1-one, thioxanthones, anthraquinones, and triazines.

[0068] The above-mentioned photopolymerization initiators may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0069] The content of the photopolymerization initiator is preferably 1 to 20% by mass as a mass fraction relative to the total solid content of the resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention.

[0070] (Organic Solvent)

[0071] The resist composition for black matrices of the present invention contains an organic solvent.

[0072] As the organic solvent, organic solvents conventionally used in the field of liquid crystal black matrix resists can be appropriately used.

[0073] Specifically, the organic solvent is a solvent at normal pressure (1.013×10 2 kPa) with a boiling point of 100 to 250°C, such as ester organic solvents, ether organic solvents, ether ester organic solvents, ketone organic solvents, aromatic hydrocarbon organic solvents, and nitrogen-containing organic solvents.

[0074] If a large amount of the organic solvent having a boiling point exceeding 250° C. is contained, the organic solvent may not be sufficiently evaporated during prebaking of the coating formed by applying the black matrix resist composition and may remain in the dried coating, thereby reducing the heat resistance of the dried coating.

[0075] Furthermore, if a large amount of the organic solvent having a boiling point of less than 100° C. is contained, uniform coating becomes difficult, and a coating film having excellent surface smoothness may not be obtained.

[0076] Specific examples of the organic solvent include: ether organic solvents such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoisopropyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monobutyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and diethylene glycol methyl ethyl ether; ether ester organic solvents such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, and propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate; methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, 2-[4-(2-methyl-1-oxo-1-yl)-1-piperidin-1-yl] ... Ketone organic solvents such as methyl-2-hydroxypropionate, ethyl-2-hydroxypropionate, ethyl-2-hydroxy-2-methylpropionate, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutylpropionate, methyl-3-methoxypropionate, ethyl-3-methoxypropionate, methyl-3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl-3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl ethoxyacetate, ethyl hydroxyacetate, and n-amyl formate; alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and butanol; and nitrogen-containing organic solvents such as N-methylpyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, and N,N-dimethylacetamide. These solvents can be used alone or in mixtures of two or more.

[0077] Among the above-mentioned organic solvents, in terms of solubility, dispersibility, coating properties, etc., diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol methyl ethyl ether, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, cyclohexanone, 2-heptanone, ethyl 2-hydroxypropionate, 3-methyl-3-methoxybutylpropionate, ethyl 3-methoxypropionate, methyl 3-ethoxypropionate, n-pentyl formate, etc. are preferred, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate is more preferred.

[0078] (Oxazine compound)

[0079] The resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention contains an oxazine compound, and the oxazine compound is a compound represented by the following general formula (1) and / or (2).

[0080] The black matrix resist composition of the present invention contains the oxazine compound. Due to the high temperature during post-baking, the oxazine compound polymerizes to form a high molecular weight product. Therefore, even if the black colorant migrates within the coating film softened by the high temperature, the polymerized oxazine compound acts as a spacer, preventing the black colorants from contacting each other. Therefore, the black matrix resist composition of the present invention, which does not form a conductive structure, is expected to maintain a high surface resistance.

[0081] However, the present invention can also be interpreted without being limited to this mechanism of action.

[0082]

[0083] In the general formula (1), R 1 and R 2 represents an alkyl group or an aryl group optionally containing an unsaturated bond, and is optionally the same as or different from each other. 1 represents any one of the linking groups represented by the following formulae (3) to (5).

[0096] In addition, from the viewpoint of appropriately ensuring the optical density of the black colorant derived from the black matrix, the upper limit of the content of the oxazine compound relative to the mass fraction of the total solid content of the black matrix resist composition of the present invention is preferably 30 mass %, more preferably 25 mass %, further preferably 20 mass %, and particularly preferably 15 mass %.

[0135] Black Matrix

[0136] The black matrix of the present invention is formed using the resist composition for a black matrix of the present invention.

[0137] There is no particular limitation on the method for forming the black matrix of the present invention. For example, the anti-etching composition for the black matrix of the present invention can be coated on a transparent substrate, dried to form a coating film, and then a photomask is placed on the coating film. The image is exposed and developed through the photomask, and a black matrix is ​​formed by photocuring or the like as needed.

[0141] By setting the thickness of the coating film to be within the above-mentioned range, a predetermined pattern can be appropriately developed and a predetermined optical density can be appropriately provided.

[0142] For the black matrix of the present invention, the black matrix resist composition of the present invention was coated on a glass substrate (Corning 1737), pre-baked at 100°C for 3 minutes, and then exposed with a high-pressure mercury lamp (UV integrated luminance 400mJ / cm 2 ), and then post-baking at 230°C for 30 minutes to form an optical density (OD value) of 3.0 or more, more preferably 3.5 or more, further preferably 4.0 or more, and particularly preferably 4.5 or more when forming a resist pattern with a thickness of 1 μm.

[0143] When the optical density (OD value) is 3.0 or more, it can be said that the shielding property is sufficient.

[0144] The optical density (OD value) is a value measured using a Macbeth densitometer (TD-931, trade name, manufactured by Macbeth) by forming a resist pattern with only a solid portion of 1 μm.

[0145] For the black matrix of the present invention, the black matrix resist composition of the present invention was coated on a glass substrate (Corning 1737), pre-baked at 100°C for 3 minutes, and then exposed with a high-pressure mercury lamp (UV integrated luminance 400mJ / cm 2 ), and then post-baking was performed at 230°C for 30 minutes. The surface resistance value when forming a resist pattern with a thickness of 1 μm was preferably 5.0×10 13 Ω / □ or more, more preferably 1.0×10 14 Ω / □ or more, more preferably 5.0×10 14 Ω / □ or more, particularly preferably 1.0×10 15 Ω / □ or more, and most preferably 3.0×10 15 Ω / □ or more.

[0146] The surface resistance value can be measured using "Main unit: micro ammeter R8340; Option: shield box R12702A" (both manufactured by ADVANCE Co., Ltd.).

[0147] For the black matrix of the present invention, the black matrix resist composition of the present invention was coated on a glass substrate (Corning 1737), pre-baked at 100°C for 3 minutes, and then exposed with a high-pressure mercury lamp (UV integrated luminance 400mJ / cm 2 ), and then post-baking was performed at 230°C for 3 hours. The surface resistance value when forming a resist pattern with a thickness of 1 μm was preferably 1.0×10 13 Ω / □ or more, more preferably 5.0×10 13 Ω / □ or more, more preferably 1.0×10 14 Ω / □ or more, particularly preferably 5.0×10 14 Ω / □ or more.

[0148] Since the resist composition for black matrices and the black matrix of the present invention have the above-mentioned properties, they can be suitably used as a black matrix for image display devices, touch panels, and the like.

[0189] <Evaluation Test>

[0190] (OD value)

[0191] Each of the pigment dispersion resist compositions for black matrices of the examples and comparative examples was applied to a glass substrate (Corning 1737) using a spin coater to a film thickness of 1 μm, pre-baked at 100° C. for 3 minutes, and then exposed using a high-pressure mercury lamp (UV integrated irradiance 400 mJ / cm 2 ), and then post-baked at 230° C. for 30 minutes to prepare a black resist pattern consisting only of a solid portion.

[0193] (Surface resistance value 1)

[0194] A black resist pattern was prepared in the same manner as in the above-mentioned measurement of the OD value.

[0195] The surface resistance value of each prepared black resist pattern was measured using "Main unit: micro ammeter R8340; Option: shield box R12702A" (both manufactured by ADVANCE Co., Ltd.).
