AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, the color layer of the color filter is difficult to cure under low temperature heating treatment, resulting in large linewidth offset and poor solvent resistance. Especially when the color filter is formed directly on the component substrate, the heat treatment temperature is limited, making it difficult to ensure the curing of the pattern and the solvent resistance.
A photosensitive coloring resin composition containing a (meth)acrylate copolymer dispersant and a photoinitiator with a specific structure is used to form a coloring layer through exposure and low-temperature heating treatment. This improves the compatibility of the initiator with other components, suppresses linewidth shift, and enhances solvent resistance.
It enables the formation of a uniformly cured coloring layer under low-temperature heating conditions, reduces linewidth offset, improves the production efficiency of color filters and the solvent resistance of patterns, and is suitable for the manufacture of color filters on component substrates.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a photosensitive colored resin composition, a cured product, a color filter, and a display device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, with the development of personal computers, particularly portable personal computers, the demand for liquid crystal displays has been increasing. The popularity of mobile displays (mobile phones, smartphones, tablet PCs (personal computers)) is also increasing, and the market for liquid crystal displays is expanding. Organic light emitting display devices such as organic EL (Electroluminescence) displays, which have high visibility due to self-emission, are also attracting attention as next-generation image display devices.
[0003] These liquid crystal display devices, organic light emitting display devices use a color filter. For example, regarding the formation of a color image of a liquid crystal display device, light passing through the color filter is directly colored to the color of each pixel constituting the color filter, and the light of these colors is synthesized to form a color image. As a light source at this time, in addition to the conventional cold cathode tube, an organic light emitting element that emits white light, an inorganic light emitting element that emits white light are sometimes used. In an organic light emitting display device, a color filter is used for color adjustment and the like.
[0004] Here, the color filter generally has a substrate, a colored layer formed on the substrate and including a colored pattern of red, green, and blue three primary colors, and a light-shielding portion formed on the substrate in a manner of dividing each colored pattern.
[0005] As a method of forming the colored layer in the color filter, for example, a color material dispersion liquid in which a color material is dispersed by a dispersant or the like is added with a binder resin, a photopolymerizable compound, and a photoinitiator, the formed colored resin composition is coated on a glass substrate and dried, then exposed using a photomask, developed to form a colored pattern, and heated to fix the pattern, thereby forming the colored layer. These procedures are repeated for each color to form the color filter.
[0006] In recent years, in the case where the demand for high brightness of the color filter and the like is increasing, the concentration of the color material in the colored layer of the color filter is higher than in the past, and thus the components required for photopolymerization are relatively less, and patterning is difficult to perform. Furthermore, in order to improve the productivity of the color filter, it is required to reduce the cumulative exposure amount required for patterning, and how to ensure the curability required for patterning becomes a big problem.
[0007] In order to ensure the curability required for patterning of the colored layer, in a color filter colored resin composition, a photoinitiator having a relatively small molecular weight such as Irgacure 907 is used as a high-sensitivity photoinitiator, but sublimates to cause contamination of photomasks, heating ovens, and the like.
[0008] Therefore, in Patent Literature 1, as a high-sensitivity photopolymerization initiator which is excellent in stability, has low sublimation, and activates with high efficiency by absorbing near-ultraviolet light such as 365 nm, a specific oxime ester compound is disclosed.
[0009] In addition, as a high-sensitivity photoinitiator, for example, in Patent Literature 2, as a photoinitiator which is high in reactivity, easy to synthesize, and easy to handle, a specific o-acyl oxime compound is disclosed.
[0010] Further, in Patent Literature 3, as a high-sensitivity photoinitiator, a specific oxime ester compound is disclosed.

[0016] PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION
[0017] Conventionally, a color filter is formed on a glass substrate, but in recent years, it is required to directly form a color filter on a device substrate.
[0018] A device such as an organic light-emitting device has low heat resistance, and therefore heating treatment in the manufacturing process of a color filter directly formed on a device substrate is preferably performed at 90°C or lower. In a conventional color filter manufacturing process, heating treatment at around 230°C is performed on a glass substrate to cure a colored layer, and in contrast to this, in heating treatment at 90°C or lower, it is difficult to cure the colored layer by heat. Therefore, in order to impart the colored layer with solvent resistance required in a subsequent process, it is necessary to sufficiently cure the colored layer by exposure. In order to promote the curing of the colored layer by exposure, it is considered to use a high-sensitivity initiator. However, a high-sensitivity initiator has a tendency that the line width deviation also becomes large, and in the case of producing a fine line pattern, there is a problem that it becomes larger than the assumed pattern size. Furthermore, even if the colored layer contains a high-sensitivity initiator, it is not necessarily possible to obtain the required solvent resistance by curing by exposure and heating treatment at 90°C or lower.
[0019] The present application has been achieved in view of the above-described circumstances, and aims to provide a photosensitive colored resin composition capable of forming a colored layer which is excellent in line width deviation and solvent resistance under low-temperature heating treatment. In addition, the present application aims to provide a color filter and a display device formed using the photosensitive colored resin composition.

[0071] k represents 0 or 1.
[0072] The photosensitive colored resin composition of the present application uses the above-mentioned (meth)acrylate copolymer-based dispersant as a dispersant, and contains the compound represented by the above-mentioned general formula (A) as a photoinitiator, and thus can form a colored layer which suppresses line width deviation, and which is also excellent in solvent resistance even in the case where low-temperature heating treatment is performed after exposure. Although the mechanism of exerting such an effect is not clear, it is presumed as follows.
[0073] It is considered that, in order to form a colored layer which is excellent in solvent resistance even under low-temperature heat treatment, it is necessary to make the state of curing uniform in the colored layer, but the compatibility of the initiator with other components affects the state of curing. In a photosensitive resin coloring composition, a dispersing agent is generally contained in order to disperse color materials uniformly. Even if the initiator used in the present application is used, sometimes the line width deviation becomes large due to the dispersing agent used, or a colored layer having sufficient solvent resistance cannot be obtained by low-temperature heat treatment. It is considered that, if the compatibility of the initiator with other components is low, the initiator easily exists preferentially on the surface of the colored layer, and further curing proceeds on the surface of the colored layer, thereby the line width deviation becomes large.
[0074] In the photosensitive resin composition of the present application, in contrast, the above-described (meth)acrylate copolymer dispersant is used as a dispersant, and the compound represented by the above-described general formula (A) is contained as a photoinitiator, and therefore the compatibility of the initiator with other components is excellent, and the initiator easily exists uniformly in the colored layer. Therefore, it is presumed that the curing proceeds only on the surface, thereby the line width deviation is suppressed, the colored layer is cured uniformly, thereby the unreacted components are reduced, the internal stress of the colored layer is also reduced, and therefore the change of the colored layer when immersed in a solvent is small. By combining the above-described dispersant and photoinitiator, sufficient solvent resistance can be obtained even by low-temperature heat treatment, and it is presumed that the main reason is that the compatibility of the photoinitiator with the photopolymerizable compound and the dispersant, and the compatibility of the dispersant with the photopolymerizable compound are high.
[0075] It is further presumed that, in the case where the above-described (meth)acrylate copolymer dispersant is a graft copolymer in which a solvent-affinity moiety is branched, or a copolymer having an acid value, the compatibility with the initiator and other components is further improved, the initiator can be uniformly and stably maintained in the film, and the solvent resistance is also improved.
[0076] The photosensitive coloring resin composition of the present application contains at least a color material, a dispersant, an alkali-soluble resin, a photopolymerizable compound, a photoinitiator, and a solvent, and can further contain other components within a range not impairing the effects of the present application.
[0077] Hereinafter, each component of the photosensitive coloring resin composition of the present application will be described in detail in order from the dispersant and the photoinitiator which are the characteristic combination of the present application.

[0082] The structural unit that functions as a color material adsorption site can be exemplified by a structural unit derived from an ethylenically unsaturated monomer that can be copolymerized with a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate.

[0139] [Chemical Formula 7]
[0140]
[0141]
[0142] (in General Formula (III), R 44 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, A 3 is a divalent linking group, R 45 is an ethylene group or a propylene group, R 46 is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group, and m represents a number of 3 or more and 80 or less.
[0143] (in General Formula (III'), R 44' is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, A 3' is a divalent linking group, R 47 is an alkylene group having a carbon number of 1 to 10, R 48 is an alkylene group having a carbon number of 3 to 7, R 49 is a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group, and n represents a number of 1 or more and 40 or less.
[0144] As the divalent linking group A 3 , the same linking groups as those in A 1 described above can be exemplified. Among them, from the viewpoint of solubility in an organic solvent used for a color filter, A 3 in General Formula (III) is preferably a divalent linking group containing a -CONH- group or a -COO- group, more preferably a -CONH- group or a -COO- group, and still more preferably a -COO- group.
[0145] The above m represents the number of repeating units of the oxirane chain or the oxetane chain, and represents a number of 3 or more, wherein, from the viewpoint of suppressing the occurrence of water stains, it is preferably 19 or more, and more preferably 21 or more. Note that the water stains refer to a phenomenon in which, after alkaline development, traces like water penetration are produced after washing with pure water. Such water stains disappear after post-baking, and thus are not a problem for products, but are detected as unevenness in appearance inspection after patterning after development, and cause a problem in that normal products and abnormal products cannot be distinguished. Thus, if the inspection sensitivity of the inspection device is reduced in appearance inspection, the result is a reduction in yield of the final color filter product, which becomes a problem. As a cause of the occurrence of water stains in the cured film of the photosensitive resin composition, water absorption into the cured film can be cited. The alkali-soluble resin in the cured film has an acidic group such as a carboxyl group, and thus readily absorbs water. In addition, it is believed that the acidic group forms a metal salt with an alkali metal typically contained in the alkaline developer at the time of development, and thus the water absorbency is further increased. The oxygen atoms contained in the polyethylene oxide chain or the polypropylene oxide chain can be captured by complexation with a metal such as an alkali metal. It is presumed that, as the number of repeating units of the polyethylene oxide chain or the polypropylene oxide chain increases, the complexation constant increases, and the metal molecule capture ability increases, and thus the formation of the alkali metal salt of the alkali-soluble resin can be suppressed, and water absorption into the cured film can be suppressed. In addition, it is presumed that the oxygen atoms contained in the polyethylene oxide chain or the polypropylene oxide chain interact with the acidic group such as the carboxyl group of the alkali-soluble resin contained in the photosensitive resin composition through hydrogen bonding, and thus the formation of the alkali metal salt of the acidic group can be suppressed, and water absorption into the cured film can be suppressed.
[0146] In the case where the above m is 19 or more, as shown in Figure 4 the above graft copolymer 11 contains a main chain portion 12 having a structural unit 21 represented by general formula (I) and a structural unit 22 represented by general formula (II), and at least a part of the nitrogen sites of the above structural unit 21 represented by general formula (I) can form a salt with at least one selected from an organic acid compound and a halogenated hydrocarbon 23, and the above structural unit 22 represented by general formula (II) is a structural unit 25 represented by general formula (III) containing a polyethylene oxide chain or a polypropylene oxide chain 26 having a specific number of repetitions in a polymer chain 24. In the specific graft copolymer used in the present application, the structural unit of the thus grafted polymer chain 24 contains the structural unit 25 containing a polyethylene oxide chain or a polypropylene oxide chain having a specific number of repetitions, and the grafted polymer chain 24 itself has a branched structure. It is presumed that, as a result, the specific surface area of the metal capture portion of the dispersant increases, and, in interaction therewith, the metal capture action by the oxygen atoms contained in the polyethylene oxide chain or the polypropylene oxide chain is significant, and the water absorption suppression effect can be improved, and the occurrence of water stains due to water absorption can be suppressed. It is presumed that, by these water absorption suppression effects into the cured film, the occurrence of water stains due to water absorption can be suppressed.

In the case of producing a graft copolymer having the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) and the structural unit represented by the general formula (II) described above, for example, a method in which a monomer represented by the general formula (la) described below, and a polymer chain and a polymerizable oligomer (macromonomer) containing a group having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond at the terminal thereof as a copolymerization component are copolymerized to produce a graft copolymer can be exemplified.
[0183] Other monomers can also be further used as needed, and a graft copolymer can be produced using a publicly known polymerization method.
[0184] [Chemical Formula 8]
[0185]
[0186] (In the general formula (la), R 41 , A 1 , R 42 , and R 43 are the same as in the general formula (I).)
[0187] In the case of producing a graft copolymer having the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) and the structural unit represented by the general formula (II) described above, the monomer represented by the general formula (la) described above can be addition-polymerized with other monomers containing a group having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond to form a copolymer, and then a polymer chain containing a reactive group capable of reacting with a reactive group contained in the copolymer can be used to introduce the polymer chain. Specifically, for example, after a copolymer having an alkoxy group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, an amino group, an epoxy group, an isocyanate group, a hydrogen bond-forming group, or the like as a substituent is synthesized, the copolymer can be reacted with a polymer chain containing a functional group that reacts with the substituent to introduce the polymer chain.
[0188] For example, a copolymer having a glycidyl group in the side chain can be reacted with a polymer chain having a carboxyl group at the terminal thereof, or a copolymer having an isocyanate group in the side chain can be reacted with a polymer chain having a hydroxyl group at the terminal thereof to introduce the polymer chain.
[0189] Note that in the polymerization described above, additives generally used for polymerization, such as a polymerization initiator, a dispersion stabilizer, a chain transfer agent, and the like, can be used.
[0190] Next, a block copolymer having an A block containing the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) described above, and a B block containing a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate will be described.
[0191] In the present application, the configuration of each block of the block copolymer is not particularly limited, and for example, it can be an AB block copolymer, an ABA block copolymer, a BAB block copolymer, or the like. Among them, from the viewpoint of excellent dispersibility, an AB block copolymer or an ABA block copolymer is preferred.
[0192] The A block is a block that functions as a color material adsorption site, and contains at least a structural unit represented by the above general formula (I). It can be a salt type block copolymer in which at least a part of the nitrogen sites of the structural unit represented by the above general formula (I) of the block copolymer forms a salt with at least one selected from the group consisting of an organic acid compound and a halogenated hydrocarbon.
[0193] The A block can have a structural unit other than the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) within a range that achieves the object of the present application, and can contain a structural unit that can be copolymerized with the structural unit represented by the general formula (I). Specifically, for example, the structural unit represented by the above general formula (IV) or the like can be mentioned.
[0194] In the A block in the block copolymer before salt formation, the content ratio of the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) with respect to the total mass of all structural units of the A block is preferably 50 to 100% by mass, more preferably 80 to 100% by mass, and most preferably 100% by mass. The reason for this is that the higher the proportion of the structural unit represented by the general formula (I), the higher the adsorption force to the color material, and the better the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the block copolymer. Note that the content ratio of the above structural unit is calculated from the added mass at the time of synthesizing the A block having the structural unit represented by the general formula (I).
[0195] In addition, in the block copolymer before salt formation, from the viewpoint of becoming good in dispersibility and dispersion stability, the content ratio of the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) with respect to the total mass of all structural units of the block copolymer is preferably 5 to 60% by mass, and more preferably 10 to 50% by mass. Note that the content ratio of each structural unit in the above block copolymer is calculated from the added mass at the time of synthesizing the block copolymer before salt formation.
[0196] Note that the structural unit represented by the general formula (I) can contain one kind or two or more kinds as long as it has an affinity with the color material.
[0197] The B block is a block that functions as a solvent affinity site, and contains at least a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate ester.
[0198] As the structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate ester, the same as described above can be mentioned.
[0199] As the B block, it is preferable to use, in a manner having solvent affinity, from among monomers having an unsaturated double bond which are copolymerizable with the monomers derived from the structural unit represented by General Formula (I), in accordance with the solvent. As a standard, it is preferable to introduce the B block in a manner such that the solubility of the copolymer in the solvent used in combination at 23°C is 20 (g / 100 g solvent) or more. The structural unit constituting the B block portion can include one kind, or two or more kinds.
[0200] As the structural unit included in the B block, for example, the structural unit represented by General Formula (IV) described above can be cited.
[0201] In the block copolymer used as the dispersant of the present application, the ratio m / n of the number of units m of the structural unit represented by General Formula (I) described above to the number of units n of the other structural unit constituting the solvent-affinity block portion is preferably in the range of 0.01 or more and 1 or less, and from the viewpoint of the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the color material, it is more preferably in the range of 0.05 or more and 0.7 or less.
[0202] From the viewpoint of improving the solvent resistance in combination with the specific initiator used in the present application, and suppressing the generation of development residue, it is preferable that the block copolymer used as the dispersant of the present application contains at least one of a block copolymer containing an A block including the structural unit represented by General Formula (I) described above, and a B block including a structural unit derived from a carboxyl group-containing monomer and a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate ester, and a salt-type block copolymer obtained by forming a salt of at least a part of the nitrogen site of the structural unit represented by General Formula (I) of the block copolymer with at least one selected from an organic acid compound and a halogenated hydrocarbon. The acid value of the at least one of the block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer is 1 to 18 mgKOH / g, and the glass transition temperature is 30°C or more.
[0203] The B block in this case includes a structural unit derived from a (meth)acrylate ester as an essential component, and can be the same as the B block of International Publication No. 2016 / 104493.
[0204] As the carboxyl group-containing monomer, a monomer capable of copolymerizing with the monomer derived from the structural unit represented by General Formula (I) and containing an unsaturated double bond and a carboxyl group can be used. As such a monomer, for example, (meth)acrylic acid, vinylbenzoic acid, maleic acid, maleic acid monoalkyl ester, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, cinnamic acid, acrylic acid dimer, and the like can be exemplified. In addition, an adduct of a monomer having a hydroxyl group such as 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate and a cyclic anhydride such as maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydride, and the like, ω-carboxy-polycaprolactone mono(meth)acrylate, and the like can also be used. In addition, as a precursor of a carboxyl group, a monomer containing an anhydride group such as maleic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, citraconic anhydride, and the like can be used. Among these, from the viewpoints of copolymerizability, cost, solubility, glass transition temperature, and the like, (meth)acrylic acid is particularly preferable.
[0205] In the block copolymer before salt formation, the content ratio of the structural unit derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.05% by mass or more and 4.5% by mass or less, more preferably 0.07% by mass or more and 3.7% by mass or less, with respect to the total mass of all the structural units of the block copolymer, in a manner that the acid value of the block copolymer is within the range of the above specific acid value.
[0206] By the content ratio of the structural unit derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer being the above lower limit value or more, a development residue inhibitory effect can be exhibited, and by being the above upper limit value or less, a decrease in development adhesion and a decrease in solvent redissolvability can be prevented.
[0207] Note that the structural unit derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer can include one kind or two or more kinds as long as it is the above specific acid value.
[0208] In addition, from the viewpoint of improving development adhesion, it is preferable that the B block of the block copolymer contain a structural unit derived from a hydroxyl group-containing monomer. In the case where the B block contains a structural unit derived from a hydroxyl group-containing monomer, the development speed is further improved. Note that the hydroxyl group here refers to an alcoholic hydroxyl group bonded to an aliphatic hydrocarbon.
[0209] As the structural unit derived from a hydroxyl group-containing monomer, a monomer capable of copolymerizing with the monomer derived from the structural unit represented by General Formula (I) and containing an unsaturated double bond and a hydroxyl group can be used. As such a monomer, for example, 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, glycerol mono(meth)acrylate, polyethylene glycol mono(meth)acrylate, ε-caprolactone 1 mole adduct of 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl (meth)acrylate, and the like can be exemplified.
[0210] From the viewpoint of improving the development adhesion, one or more selected from the group consisting of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl (meth)acrylate is preferred.
[0211] In the block copolymer before salt formation, the content ratio of the structural unit derived from the hydroxyl group-containing monomer is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 2% by mass or more, still more preferably 3% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 4% by mass or more, relative to the total mass of all the structural units of the block copolymer. If it is equal to or greater than the above lower limit value, it becomes a block copolymer preferred in terms of development adhesion. Also, it is preferably 70% by mass or less, more preferably 60% by mass or less, still more preferably 50% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 40% by mass or less. If it is equal to or less than the above upper limit value, the introduction ratio of other useful monomers can be increased, and thus it is preferred. Note that the content ratio of the above structural unit is calculated based on the added mass at the time of synthesizing the block copolymer before salt formation.
[0212] The acid value of at least one of the above block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer is preferably 1 mgKOH / g or more, and more preferably 2 mgKOH / g or more, as a lower limit value, from the viewpoint of the development residue suppression effect. Also, the acid value of at least one of the above block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer is preferably 18 mgKOH / g or less, and more preferably 16 mgKOH / g or less, and still more preferably 14 mgKOH / g or less, as an upper limit value, from the viewpoint of being able to prevent the development adhesion or the solvent redissolution property from deteriorating.
[0213] The acid value of at least one of the above block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer can be found by the method described in International Publication No. 2016 / 104493.
[0214] From the viewpoint of the development adhesion, the glass transition temperature of at least one of the above block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer is preferably 30°C or more, and particularly preferably 32°C or more, and more preferably 35°C or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of the operability at the time of use, such as easy accurate weighing, it is preferably 200°C or less.
[0215] The glass transition temperature of at least one of the above block copolymer and the salt-type block copolymer is found by measuring with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) based on JIS K7121. In the case where two or more peaks indicating the glass transition temperature are observed, the peak having the largest peak area, that is, the area of the portion protruding from the baseline of the obtained graph, is set as the representative value of the glass transition temperature.
[0216] The mass average molecular weight Mw of the above-mentioned block copolymer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 1000 or more and 20000 or less, more preferably 2000 or more and 15000 or less, and still more preferably 3000 or more and 12000 or less from the viewpoint of good color material dispersibility and dispersion stability.
[0217] Here, the mass average molecular weight (Mw) can be measured in the same manner as described above.
[0218] In addition, from the viewpoints of dispersion stability and solvent resistance, and compatibility with an initiator, the total proportion of the structural units derived from (meth)acrylate is preferably 60% by mass or more, more preferably 80% by mass or more, and still more preferably 90% by mass or more, when all of the structural units in the B block of the block copolymer are taken as 100% by mass. On the other hand, from the viewpoints of simultaneously satisfying dispersion stability and excellent solvent resistance, the total proportion of the structural units derived from (meth)acrylate can be 100% by mass, when all of the structural units in the B block are taken as 100% by mass. In the case where the B block contains structural units derived from the above-mentioned carboxyl group-containing monomer, the total proportion of the structural units derived from (meth)acrylate can be 100% by mass, when all of the structural units in the B block other than the structural units derived from the above-mentioned carboxyl group-containing monomer are taken as 100% by mass.
[0219] In addition, in the block copolymer before the salt is formed, the proportion of the structural units represented by the above-mentioned general formula (IV) is preferably 40 to 95% by mass, and more preferably 50 to 90% by mass, with respect to the total mass of all of the structural units of the block copolymer, from the viewpoint of improving color material dispersibility. Note that the proportion of the above-mentioned structural units is calculated based on the added mass at the time of synthesizing the block copolymer before the salt is formed.
[0220] From the viewpoints of good dispersibility, no foreign matter being deposited when a coating film is formed, and improved brightness and contrast, the (meth)acrylate-based copolymer containing the structural units represented by the above-mentioned general formula (I) is preferably a copolymer having an amine value of 40 mgKOH / g or more and 120 mgKOH / g or less.
[0221] By having the amine value within the above-mentioned range, the viscosity has excellent stability over time, heat resistance, and also excellent alkaline development and solvent redissolution. In the present application, the (meth)acrylate-based copolymer containing the structural units represented by the above-mentioned general formula (I) is particularly preferably an amine value of 80 mgKOH / g or more, and more preferably 90 mgKOH / g or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of solvent redissolution, the (meth)acrylate-based copolymer containing the structural units represented by the above-mentioned general formula (I) is preferably an amine value of 110 mgKOH / g or less, and more preferably 105 mgKOH / g or less.
[0222] The amine value is the number of mg of potassium hydroxide equivalent to perchloric acid required to neutralize the amine component contained in 1 g of the sample, and can be measured by the method defined in JIS-K7237. In the case of measurement by this method, even if the amino group forms a salt with the organic acid compound in the dispersant, the organic acid compound is usually dissociated, and thus the amine value of the block copolymer itself used as the dispersant can be measured.
[0223] The content ratio (mole %) of each structural unit in the copolymer in the dispersant can be calculated from the amount of the raw material added at the time of production, and can be measured using an analysis device such as NMR. In addition, the structure of the dispersant can be measured using NMR, various mass spectrometry, and the like. In addition, the dispersant can be decomposed by thermal decomposition or the like as needed, and for the obtained decomposition product, high performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography mass spectrometer, NMR, elemental analysis, XPS / ESCA (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy / Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis), TOF-SIMS (time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometer), and the like are used.
[0224] In the present application, as the dispersant, at least one kind of the above-mentioned (meth)acrylate copolymer-based dispersant is used, and the content thereof is appropriately selected depending on the kind of the color material used, and further depending on the solid content concentration and the like in the photosensitive colored resin composition described below.
[0225] Regarding the content of the dispersant, it is preferably adjusted to 2 to 30 mass% with respect to the total amount of the solid content of the photosensitive colored resin composition, and particularly preferably adjusted to 3 to 25 mass%. If it is equal to or more than the above lower limit value, the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the color material are excellent, and the storage stability of the photosensitive colored resin composition is more excellent. In addition, if it is equal to or less than the above upper limit value, the developability is good. Especially, in the case of forming a colored layer having a high color material concentration, the content of the dispersant is preferably adjusted to 2 to 25 mass% with respect to the total amount of the solid content of the photosensitive colored resin composition, and more preferably adjusted to 3 to 20 mass%.
[0226] Note that, in the present application, the solid content is all components other than the following solvent, and also includes monomers and the like dissolved in the solvent.
[0227] <Photoinitiator>
[0228] The photoinitiator in the photosensitive colored resin composition of the present application contains a compound represented by the following general formula (A). It is considered that, due to the photoinitiator containing a compound represented by the following general formula (A), by the combination thereof with the above-mentioned specific dispersant, the initiator is easily present uniformly in the colored layer, only the surface is cured so that the line width shift is inhibited from becoming large, the colored layer is uniformly cured so that the curability of the coating film is improved, and thus the solvent resistance of the cured product of the photosensitive colored resin composition becomes good.

[0266] The photoinitiator in the photosensitive colored resin composition of the present application contains the oxime ester-based photoinitiator represented by the above general formula (A), and from the viewpoint of more favorably adjusting the sensitivity, it can further contain a photoinitiator different from the compound represented by the above general formula (A). Note that, among the other photoinitiators used in the photosensitive colored resin composition of the present application, in addition to the photopolymerization initiator, a chain transfer agent is also included.
[0267] In view of the fact that the development residue in the micro-holes is suppressed when the colored layer is patterned and the micro-holes are formed at the same time, and the cross-sectional shape of the micro-holes becomes good, the photoinitiator in the photosensitive colored resin composition of the present application preferably contains, in addition to the compound represented by the above general formula (A), at least one selected from the group consisting of oxime ester-based photoinitiators, α-amino ketone-based photoinitiators, bisimidazole-based photoinitiators, thioxanthone-based photoinitiators, acylphosphine oxide-based photoinitiators, and mercapto-based chain transfer agents, other than the compound represented by the above general formula (A). That is, in the case where a higher sensitivity photoinitiator is used to form the colored layer, after the radicals are generated, the radicals are transferred to the unexposed part, it is difficult to maintain the shape of the unexposed part inside the exposed part, and it is difficult to form the unexposed part peripheral part without the dimensional accuracy being deteriorated. At least one selected from the group consisting of oxime ester-based photoinitiators, α-amino ketone-based photoinitiators, bisimidazole-based photoinitiators, thioxanthone-based photoinitiators, acylphosphine oxide-based photoinitiators, and mercapto-based chain transfer agents, other than the compound represented by the above general formula (A), has the property of curing the deep part from the coating film, and it is easy to suppress the curing only at the surface of the coating film.
[0268] Therefore, if at least one selected from the group consisting of oxime ester-based photoinitiators, α-amino ketone-based photoinitiators, bisimidazole-based photoinitiators, thioxanthone-based photoinitiators, acylphosphine oxide-based photoinitiators, and mercapto-based chain transfer agents, other than the compound represented by the above general formula (A), is further combined, the sensitivity is maintained to be good, and the curing occurs from the surface to the deep part of the coating film in good balance, the cross-sectional shape of the micro-holes can be controlled, the inclination angle (θ2) of the cross-sectional shape of the micro-holes (see FIG. 2) is less than 90°, and becomes good. Figure 6 ) less than 90°, and becomes good.
[0269] In addition, if at least one selected from the group consisting of oxime ester-based photoinitiators, α-amino ketone-based photoinitiators, bisimidazole-based photoinitiators, thioxanthone-based photoinitiators, acylphosphine oxide-based photoinitiators, and mercapto-based chain transfer agents, other than the compound represented by the above general formula (A), is further combined, the sensitivity of the unexposed part can be controlled to be good, and the development residue suppressing effect in the micro-holes becomes high.
[0270] In the case where an oxime ester-based photoinitiator other than the compound represented by the above general formula (A) is used as the other photoinitiator, the cross-sectional shape of the above micro-holes is good, has the effect of suppressing the development residue, and in the case of forming a fine line pattern, it is easy to make the cross-sectional shape good, and is preferred from this point of view.

[0332] The average dispersed particle diameter of the color material in the photosensitive colored resin composition is the dispersed particle diameter of the color material particles dispersed in the dispersion medium containing at least a solvent, and is measured by a laser scattering particle size distribution meter. As the measurement of the particle diameter by the laser scattering particle size distribution meter, the photosensitive colored resin composition can be appropriately diluted (for example, 1000 times or the like) to a concentration that can be measured by the laser scattering particle size distribution meter using a solvent used for the photosensitive colored resin composition, and the measurement can be performed by a dynamic light scattering method at 23°C using a laser scattering particle size distribution meter (for example, Nanotrac particle size distribution measuring device UPA-EX150 manufactured by Nikkiso Co., Ltd.). The average distribution particle diameter herein is a volume average particle diameter.

If it is equal to or greater than the lower limit of the above range, the colored layer when the photosensitive colored resin composition is applied to a specific film thickness (typically, 1.0 μm to 5.0 μm) has sufficient color density. In addition, if it is equal to or less than the upper limit of the above range, a colored layer having excellent storage stability and sufficient hardness and adhesion to a substrate can be obtained. In particular, in the case of forming a colored layer having a high color material concentration, the total content of the color material is preferably blended at a proportion of 15% by mass to 65% by mass, more preferably 25% by mass to 60% by mass, with respect to the total amount of the solid components of the photosensitive colored resin composition.

The coating film was exposed to ultraviolet rays at 40 mJ / cm2using an ultrahigh pressure mercury lamp through a pattern photomask (chromium mask) in which a chromium mask of 20 μm x 20 μm was disposed in the center of an independent fine line of an opening size of 90 μm x 300 μm, thereby forming an exposed coating film on the glass substrate. Subsequently, a rotation development was performed with 0.05 wt% potassium hydroxide aqueous solution as a developing solution, and after the coating film was contacted with the developing solution for 60 seconds, it was washed with pure water, thereby performing a development treatment to obtain an independent fine line pattern coating film having micropores. Thereafter, a post-baking was performed in a dust-free oven at 90°C for 25 minutes, thereby forming an independent fine line pattern colored layer having micropores. The obtained colored layer was subjected to the following evaluations. 2
[0520] <Line Width Shift Amount Evaluation>
[0521] The width of the fine line pattern of the colored layer corresponding to the opening width of 90 μm of the chromium mask used at the time of exposure was measured at five points by an optical microscope, and the line width shift amount was evaluated based on the difference between the average value of the line width and the target line width.

[0535] If the evaluation result is B, the solvent resistance is good, and if the evaluation result is A, the solvent resistance is excellent.
[0536] < Cross-sectional shape of fine line patterned colored layer >

[0552] <Residue in Micro-hole>
[0553] The micro-hole was observed by a scanning electron microscope (manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation, super scan model 220, magnification 5000 times), and the residue in the micro-hole was evaluated based on the following evaluation criteria.
[0554] (Evaluation Criteria of Residue in Micro-hole)

[0560] <Development Residue Inhibition Evaluation>
[0561] Using a spin coater, the photosensitive coloring resin compositions obtained in the examples and comparative examples, after baking to form a coloring layer with a thickness of 2.0 μm, were coated onto glass substrates (manufactured by NH TECHNO GLASS Co., Ltd., "NA35"). The substrates were then dried at 80°C for 3 minutes using a heated plate to form the coloring layer. For the glass substrate with the coloring layer formed, a 0.05% (w / w) potassium hydroxide aqueous solution was used as an alkaline developer for 60 seconds of spray development, followed by rinsing with pure water. After visually observing the formed portion of the coloring layer, the surface was thoroughly wiped with a lens cloth containing ethanol (manufactured by Toray Industries, Ltd., trade name Toraysee MK Clean Cloth) to visually observe the degree of coloring on the lens cloth.

[0567] If the evaluation result is B, the developer residue suppression effect is good; if the evaluation result is A, the developer residue suppression effect is excellent.
[0568] <Water Spot Suppression Evaluation>
[0569] Using a spin coater, the photosensitive coloring resin compositions obtained in the examples and comparative examples, after baking to form a coloring layer with a thickness of 2.0 μm, were coated onto glass substrates (manufactured by NH TECHNO GLASS Co., Ltd., "NA35", thickness 0.7 mm, 100 mm × 100 mm). The substrates were then dried at 60°C for 3 minutes using a heating plate, and the entire surface was irradiated with an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp at 30 mJ / cm² without a photomask. 2 Ultraviolet light is used to form a coloring layer on the glass substrate. Subsequently, after spray development with 0.05 wt% potassium (KOH) as the developer for 60 seconds, the substrate is rinsed with pure water and then developed. After rinsing, the substrate is rotated for 10 seconds, centrifuged to remove water, and the water spot is evaluated by measuring the contact angle of pure water immediately as follows.
[0570] As to the measurement of the contact angle of pure water, a droplet of 1.0 μL of pure water was dropped on the surface of the colored layer immediately after the removal of water by centrifugation, and the static contact angle after the adhesion of the droplet for 10 seconds was measured according to the θ / 2 method. The measurement was performed using a contact angle meter DM 500 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd. as a measuring device.
