Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid crystal applications. More specifically, it relates to a negative nematic liquid crystal composition, a reverse polymer dispersed liquid crystal material and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) is a material formed by mixing liquid crystal molecules with a prepolymer and undergoing phase separation through a polymerization reaction to form liquid crystal microdroplets uniformly dispersed in a polymer three-dimensional network, ultimately resulting in a material with optoelectronic response characteristics. For a positive PDLC, when no electric field is applied, the director of the liquid crystal molecules is irregularly distributed, and its effective refractive index ne does not match the refractive index np of the polymer, and the thin film is in a light scattering state, called the fog state; when an electric field is applied, the long axis of the liquid crystal molecules is arranged parallel to the electric field, and its effective refractive index matches the refractive index of the polymer, and the thin film is in a light transmission state, called the transparent state. If applied to scenarios such as architectural glass or vehicle windows that need to maintain the transparent state for a long time, the positive PDLC requires continuous power supply, resulting in a large amount of energy loss and too high usage costs. Therefore, it is necessary to design a PDLC that maintains the transparent state without power supply and converts to the fog state when powered on, called a reverse PDLC.

[0003] Currently, reverse PDLCs have not been widely applied industrially because the products all have problems such as low light transmittance in the transparent state (less than 80%) and poor haze in the fog state (less than 80%). On the other hand, the voltage required to apply in the fog state is relatively high, generally above 60V, resulting in large energy consumption. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a reverse PDLC display device with a low driving voltage. Summary of the Invention

[0130] In the reverse polymer dispersed liquid crystal material disclosed in this embodiment, optionally, the ultraviolet curable glue is selected from a polyurethane acrylate resin system, an epoxy acrylate system, a polyester acrylate system, a polyether acrylate system, or a pure acrylate system.

[0139] When the thickness of the fired vertical liquid crystal alignment film is too thick, it is disadvantageous in terms of power consumption of the liquid crystal display element. When the thickness is too thin, the reliability of the element sometimes decreases. Therefore, it is preferably 5 to 500 nm, more preferably 10 to 300 nm, and particularly preferably 10 to 250 nm.

[0140] Among the liquid crystal compositions used in this embodiment, spacers for controlling the electrode gap (also called the gap.) of the liquid crystal display element, that is, the liquid crystal layer thickness, can also be introduced. The injection method of the liquid crystal composition is not particularly limited. For example, the following methods can be cited: when the substrate is a glass substrate, the following methods can be cited: Prepare a pair of substrates formed with a vertical liquid crystal alignment film, coat a sealant on one side of the substrate except for a part, and then paste it on the other side of the substrate with the surface of the vertical liquid crystal alignment film facing inward, thereby making an empty cell. And the liquid crystal composition is injected under reduced pressure from the uncoated sealant part, so as to obtain a cell injected with the liquid crystal composition. Furthermore, when the substrate is a plastic substrate or a thin film, the following methods can be cited: Prepare a pair of substrates formed with a vertical liquid crystal alignment film, drop the liquid crystal composition on one side of the substrate by using the ODF (One Drop Filling) method, inkjet method, etc., and then paste the other side of the substrate, so as to obtain a cell injected with the liquid crystal composition. In the liquid crystal display element of the present invention, since the adhesion between the liquid crystal layer and the vertical liquid crystal alignment film is high, a sealant may not be coated on the substrate. When the substrate is a plastic substrate or a thin film, the following methods can be cited: Prepare a pair of substrates formed with a vertical liquid crystal alignment film, bond them by a roll-to-roll method. Before rolling, a mixture of liquid crystal, polymer and spacer is coated between the two substrates. The spacer supports the substrate monolayer by roller extrusion, and the mixture is placed between the two substrates.

[0141] The gap of the liquid crystal display element can be controlled by the aforementioned spacers or the like. Examples of such methods include: the method of introducing spacers of a target size into the liquid crystal composition as described above, the method of using a substrate with column spacers of a target size, etc. In addition, when a plastic or thin film substrate is used for the substrate and the substrates are bonded by lamination, the gap can be controlled without introducing spacers.

[0142] The technical solutions of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with some specific embodiments:

[0143] In the following text, "haze" is measured using a WGT-S transmittance / haze meter.

[0144] The preparation method of the liquid crystal composition is as follows: Weigh each liquid crystal monomer according to a certain ratio and put it into a stainless steel beaker. Place the stainless steel beaker containing each liquid crystal monomer on a magnetic stirring instrument and heat it to melt. After most of the liquid crystal monomers in the stainless steel beaker have melted, add a magnetic rotor to the stainless steel beaker, stir the mixture evenly, and then cool it to room temperature to obtain the liquid crystal composition.

[0206] Compared with Comparative Example 1, for the reverse PDLC device of the present invention, when a 25V voltage was applied, the haze in the fog state was greater than 80%. Compared with the prior art, the driving voltage was significantly improved, achieving the purpose of reducing power consumption and saving energy, and having good application prospects.

[0218] RM 2

[0219] In Table 9, when the content of Formula I in Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5 was 0%, the initial haze increased, and the initial haze exceeded 10%, resulting in a blurred visual effect; and the haze after driving was relatively low, and the light scattering was too poor to achieve the effect of privacy shielding. In Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3, the compound shown in Formula II was absent. Although the initial haze and the haze after driving were comparable to the technical solution of the present invention, the driving voltage was relatively high.

[0220] The mixed crystal dielectric anisotropy of Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5 is -7, while the mixed crystal dielectric anisotropy of Example 4 and Example 5 is -4.5. In a simple liquid crystal system, the driving voltage of Comparative Example 4 and Comparative Example 5 must be lower than that of Example 4 and Example 5. However, in the reverse polymer dispersed liquid crystal mode, the dielectric is not the only factor affecting the driving voltage. The interface between the polymer and the liquid crystal has a strong anchoring effect on the liquid crystal, resulting in an important influence of the interface situation on the driving voltage, and the influence degree exceeds the dielectric of the mixed crystal itself.

[0221] Due to the relatively low clearing point of the compound shown in Formula II and it being a monofunctional polymer liquid crystal monomer (RM), the anchoring force on the liquid crystal is weak, making its driving voltage lower compared to other polymer liquid crystal monomers (RM). However, photopolymerization is a free radical polymerization with a fast polymerization rate, making it difficult to control the polymerization of the monomer of Formula II enriched at the liquid crystal polymer interface. In most cases, most of the monomers of Formula II polymerize inside the polymer and are wrapped by other polymers, resulting in a higher driving voltage, as shown in Comparative Example 4. Through experiments, it was found that controlling the content of Formula I in the mixed crystal can indirectly affect the reaction sequence of Formula II during polymerization, enabling it to be enriched at the polymer / liquid crystal interface for polymerization, and fully exerting its characteristic of reducing the driving voltage to obtain a reverse polymer dispersed liquid crystal with low voltage driving. Because the monomer of Formula I has a strong absorption of ultraviolet light and a large difference in solubility between the monomer of Formula I before and after polymerization and the polymer, it accelerates the polymerization and phase separation process of the liquid crystal and the polymer. The liquid crystal precipitated during the phase separation process contains mixed crystal components and most of the monomers of Formula II. At this time, the free radical content at the polymer / liquid crystal interface is relatively high, and the monomers of Formula II continue to undergo free radical polymerization reactions, forming an interface enriched with the polymer monomers of Formula II, thereby reducing the driving voltage.

[0222] Therefore, compared with the comparative examples, the technical solution of the present invention has a lower driving voltage, achieving the purpose of reducing power consumption and saving energy.

[0223] Table 11

[0224]

[0225] In Table 11, compared with the comparative examples, the technical solution of the present invention has a lower driving voltage while the initial haze is within 10%, the device exhibits a relatively high transparency, and the haze is higher than 80% after driving, showing a good light scattering effect.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to list all the implementation manners here. Any obvious changes or variations derived from the technical solution of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
