Description

[0001] The present application is a divisional application of an application filed on December 26, 2017, with application number 201780076574.9 and invention name “Colorant dispersion for color filter, colored resin composition for color filter, color filter and display device”. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to a colorant dispersion for a color filter, a color resin composition for a color filter, a color filter, and a display device. Background Art

[0003] In recent years, with the development of personal computers, especially portable personal computers, the demand for liquid crystal displays has increased. The popularity of mobile displays (mobile phones, smart phones, tablet PCs) has also increased, and the market for liquid crystal displays is expanding. In addition, organic light-emitting display devices such as organic EL displays that have high visibility through self-luminescence have also attracted attention as the next generation of image display devices. Among the performance of these image display devices, there is a strong desire for further high-definition images and reduced power consumption, such as improved contrast or color reproducibility.

[0004] Most existing display devices are based on the international standard specification of color space, namely sRGB (IEC61966-2-1). However, in order to achieve a closer performance to the real object, starting from the demand for further improvement of color reproduction, the demand for display devices to respond to AdobeRGB, which has a wider color reproduction gamut in the green direction than sRGB, DCI (Digital Cinema Initiatives), and BT (Broadcasting Service Television). 2020, which have a wider color reproduction gamut in the red and green directions, is increasing.

[0005] Here, a color filter used in a liquid crystal display device generally includes a transparent substrate, a coloring layer formed on the transparent substrate and including coloring patterns of three primary colors of red, green, and blue, and a light shielding portion formed on the transparent substrate to partition each coloring pattern.

[0006] As a method for forming such a colored layer, there are known pigment dispersion method, dyeing method, electrodeposition method, printing method, etc. Among them, the pigment dispersion method having average excellent characteristics from the viewpoints of spectral characteristics, durability, pattern shape and precision is most widely used.

[0007] On the other hand, as a problem unique to liquid crystal display devices, there is a problem of viewing angle dependence caused by the refractive index anisotropy of the liquid crystal cell or polarizing plate. This viewing angle dependence problem is a problem in which the color tone or contrast of the image observed changes when the liquid crystal display device is viewed from the front and when it is viewed from an oblique angle. The severity of this viewing angle characteristic problem has increased with the large-screen liquid crystal display devices in recent years.

[0008] In order to improve the viewing angle dependency, a method of assembling a phase difference film into a liquid crystal display device has been widely used in the past. However, since the color filter used in the liquid crystal display device has different phase differences depending on the coloring pattern of each color of the coloring layer, when using the phase difference film, there is a problem that the difference in phase difference of the coloring pattern of each color cannot be compensated, and it is difficult to completely solve the viewing angle dependency problem.

[0009] In particular, since the red colorant is easily crystallized due to its chemical structure, the red coloring layer has a problem of being easily increased in the retardation value in the thickness direction compared to the coloring layers of other colors.

[0010] In addition, in order to expand the color reproduction range using the currently used red colorant, when producing red pixels contained in a red chromaticity area with yellow or blue tones and high color concentration, the contrast or brightness is reduced or the platemaking properties are deteriorated due to the increase in pigment concentration.

[0011] Patent document 1 discloses a color filter, in which a red pigment is used in combination: CI Pigment Red 177 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as PG177); and a pigment (CI Pigment Yellow 150 derivative (Ni complex)) consisting of at least one crystal selected from the group consisting of a 1:1 complex of azobarbituric acid and nickel, its tautomer, and a crystal in which other compounds are inserted into the crystal lattice of at least one of these compounds. However, if this pigment is used to express a deep red color, a very high concentration of the pigment must be used, which has the problem of increasing the phase difference value in the thickness direction, reducing the contrast, and deteriorating the platemaking properties.

[0012] On the other hand, Patent Document 2 describes a metallic azo pigment, which contains a dianion of a specific azo compound and at least Zn 2+ with Ni 2+ The adduct of the metal azo compound and melamine or its derivatives formed by these two metal ions has specific signals and no specific signals in the X-ray diffraction pattern.

[0049] In addition, CI Pigment Red is appropriately abbreviated as "PR", CI Pigment Orange is appropriately abbreviated as "PO", and CI Pigment Yellow is appropriately abbreviated as "PY".

[0050] [Colorant dispersion]

[0051] The colorant dispersion for color filter of the present invention contains a colorant, a dispersant and a solvent, and is characterized in that:

[0052] The colorant contains a red colorant and a yellow colorant;

[0053] The yellow colorant contains: at least one anion selected from the group consisting of mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-anions of an azo compound represented by the following general formula (A) and an azo compound having a tautomeric structure; ions of at least two metals selected from the group consisting of Cd, Co, Al, Cr, Sn, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ni, Cu and Mn; and a compound represented by the following general formula (B);

[0054] The above-mentioned dispersant is a polymer having a structural unit represented by the following general formula (I).

[0055] [Chemistry 4]

[0056] General formula (A)

[0057]

[0058] (In the general formula (A), R a Each is independently -OH, -NH2, -NH-CN, acylamino, alkylamino or arylamino, R b Each is independently -OH or -NH2.)

[0059] [Chemistry 5]

[0060] General formula (B)

[0061]

[0062] (In the general formula (B), R c are each independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group. )

[0063] [Chemistry 6]

[0064]

[0065] (In the general formula (I), R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, A is a divalent linking group, R 2 and R 3 Each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom, R 2 and R 3 They are optionally bonded to each other to form a ring structure.)

[0066] The colorant dispersion of the present invention combines the above-mentioned specific colorant and uses a polymer having a structural unit represented by the general formula (I) as a dispersant, so that the colorant dispersion stability is excellent and a colored layer with a reduced retardation value and improved contrast can be formed.

[0067] Since red colorants generally have a ring-shaped planar structure, they are easily crystallized when forming a color layer from a colorant dispersion for a color filter, so the retardation value in the thickness direction of the obtained color layer is likely to be large.

[0068] On the other hand, in the colorant dispersion of the present invention, it is presumed that since the red colorant is used in combination with: a specific yellow colorant containing two or more metal ions; and a specific dispersant which is a polymer having a structural unit represented by general formula (I), the red colorant and the specific yellow colorant containing two or more metal ions interact with each other, and the crystal growth of the red colorant and the yellow colorant can be suppressed and micronized. Moreover, since the red colorant and the yellow colorant are micronized and dispersed by the combination with the above-mentioned dispersant, a colored layer with a reduced phase difference value and improved contrast can be formed.

[0069] In the past, in the case of a colorant in which the metal forming the metal complex of the azo compound represented by the general formula (A) is one, the crystallinity is high and it is difficult to micronize, and it is difficult to improve the contrast. In addition, the phase difference value of the coloring layer obtained by combining with the red colorant tends to be higher. In contrast, in the present invention, a specific yellow colorant containing two or more metal ions relative to the anion of the azo compound represented by the general formula (A) is used. The yellow colorant not only suppresses the crystal growth of the yellow colorant by containing two or more metal ions, but also suppresses the crystal growth of the red colorant. By further combining with the above-mentioned specific dispersant, it is presumed that micronization can be performed in the colorant dispersion.

[0070] In addition, in the present invention, by combining the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant with the red colorant, even if the P / V ratio ((mass of the colorant component in the composition) / (mass of the solid component other than the colorant component in the composition) ratio) is suppressed, red pixels included in the above-mentioned high color concentration red chromaticity area can still be produced.

[0071] It is estimated that the retardation value in the thickness direction of the colored layer is reduced by the synergistic effect of reducing the P / V ratio in the colored layer and suppressing the crystal growth of the red colorant.

[0072] Furthermore, since the total content of the colorant components in the colored resin composition can be suppressed, the content of the binder component can be relatively increased, and platemaking properties can be improved, and a colored layer having further improved adhesion to a substrate can be formed.

[0073] The colorant dispersion of the present invention contains at least a colorant, a dispersant, and a solvent, and may further contain other components within a range that does not impair the effects of the present invention.

[0074] Hereinafter, each component of the colorant dispersion liquid of the present invention will be described in detail one by one.

[0075] [Colorant]

[0076] In the present invention, the colorant is characterized in that the colorant contains a red colorant and a yellow colorant;

[0077] The yellow colorant contains: at least one anion selected from the group consisting of mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-anions of an azo compound represented by the following general formula (A) and azo compounds with tautomeric structures; ions of at least two metals selected from the group consisting of Cd, Co, Al, Cr, Sn, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ni, Cu and Mn; and a compound represented by the following general formula (B).

[0078] In the present invention, since the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant is used as the yellow colorant, the decrease in brightness can be suppressed when combined with the red colorant. In addition, crystallization can be suppressed and microparticles can be formed. When combined with the specific dispersant described later, the dispersibility is excellent, so the contrast can be improved and the phase difference value can be reduced.

If it is within the above range, the effect of the above combination is excellent. It should be noted that the content ratio of the red colorant is a preferred ratio when preparing the coloring resin composition described later. Since the coloring agent dispersion liquid can be appropriately mixed and used to manufacture the coloring resin composition, the coloring agent dispersion liquid itself can still be used appropriately even if it is not set to the same content ratio as the coloring resin composition described later.

[0129] In the colorant dispersion of the present invention, a red colorant and the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant are used in combination as colorants, but other colorants exemplified in the coloring resin composition described later may also be used in combination.

[0130] In the colorant dispersion of the present invention, the content ratio of each red colorant and the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant, and the content ratio when other colorants are used, are preferably the same content ratio as that of the coloring resin composition described later. However, since the colorant dispersion can be used by appropriately mixing two or more kinds to produce a coloring resin composition, it can be used appropriately even if it is not the same content ratio as that of the coloring resin composition described later.

[0133] The average dispersed particle size of the colorant in the colorant dispersion is the dispersed particle size of the colorant particles dispersed in the dispersion medium containing at least a solvent, and is measured by a laser scattering particle size distribution meter. As the particle size measurement by the laser scattering particle size distribution meter, the colorant dispersion is appropriately diluted to a concentration that can be measured by the laser scattering particle size distribution meter (for example, 1000 times, etc.) using the solvent used in the colorant dispersion, and the laser scattering particle size distribution meter (for example, Nanotrac particle size distribution measuring device UPA-EX150 manufactured by Nikkiso Co., Ltd.) is used to measure at 23°C by a dynamic light scattering method. The average distributed particle size here is the volume average particle size.

Regarding the colorant content, from the viewpoint of dispersibility and dispersion stability, it is preferably mixed in a ratio of 5 to 80 parts by mass, more preferably 8 to 70 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total solid content in the colorant dispersion.

[0151] The polymer having the constituent unit represented by the general formula (I) preferably further contains a site having solvent affinity from the viewpoint of improving dispersibility. As the solvent affinity site, it is preferably selected and used appropriately from a monomer having an ethylenically unsaturated bond that can be polymerized with the monomer from which the constituent unit represented by the general formula (I) is derived, and a solvent is combined in a manner having solvent affinity. As a standard, the solvent affinity site is introduced in a manner such that the solubility of the polymer at 23° C. is 50 (g / 100g solvent) or more relative to the solvent used in combination.

[0152] As the polymer used in the present invention, from the viewpoint of improving the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant and the heat resistance of the resin composition, and being able to form a colored layer with high brightness and high contrast, a block copolymer or a graft copolymer is preferred, and a block copolymer is particularly preferred. The following describes in detail a particularly preferred block copolymer.

[0162] As R 5 The hydrocarbon group in is preferably an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 2 to 18 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group, or an aryl group.

[0166] Examples of the aryl group include phenyl, biphenyl, naphthyl, tolyl, and xylyl, and the aryl group may further have a substituent. The number of carbon atoms in the aryl group is preferably 6 or more and 24 or less, and more preferably 6 or more and 12 or less.

[0168] Examples of the substituent of the aromatic ring such as the aryl group or aralkyl group include, in addition to a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group, a nitro group, a halogen atom, and the like.

[0169] It should be noted that the above preferred number of carbon atoms does not include the number of carbon atoms of the substituent.

[0170] The above R 5In the above, x is an integer of 1 to 30, preferably an integer of 1 to 26, more preferably an integer of 1 to 18, further more preferably an integer of 1 to 4, particularly preferably an integer of 1 to 2; y is an integer of 1 to 5, preferably an integer of 1 to 4, more preferably 2 or 3. z is an integer of 1 to 18, preferably an integer of 1 to 4, more preferably an integer of 1 to 2.

[0171] The above R 8 The hydrocarbon group in can be set to be the same as the above R 5 The groups shown are the same. 8 The hydrocarbon group in is preferably an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms from the viewpoint of excellent developability.

[0172] R 9 It is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and may be linear, branched or cyclic.

[0173] In addition, R in the structural unit represented by the above general formula (II) 5 , may be the same as or different from each other.

[0174] As the above R 5 , wherein it is preferably selected so as to be a substance having excellent compatibility with the solvent described later. Specifically, when, for example, the above-mentioned solvent is a glycol ether acetate-based, ether-based, ester-based solvent generally used as a solvent for a color resin composition for a color filter, a methyl group, an ethyl group, an isobutyl group, an n-butyl group, a 2-ethylhexyl group, a benzyl group, or the like is preferably used.

[0175] In addition, among the structural units constituting the B block, the above R 5 From the viewpoint of excellent developability and excellent suppression of developing residue, it is preferred to contain -[CH(R 6 )-CH(R 7 )-O] x -R 8 or -[(CH2) y -O] z -R 8 .

[0176] In addition, the R 5 The block copolymer may be substituted with a substituent such as an alkoxy group, a hydroxyl group, an epoxy group, or an isocyanate group. After the block copolymer is synthesized, the block copolymer may be reacted with a compound having the substituent to add the substituent.

[0177] In the present invention, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the solvent-affinity block portion of the block copolymer may be appropriately selected. From the viewpoint of heat resistance, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the solvent-affinity block portion is preferably 80°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher.

[0178] The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the solvent-affinity block portion of the present invention can be calculated according to the following formula: The glass transition temperatures of the colorant-affinity block portion and the block copolymer can also be calculated in the same manner.

[0179] 1 / Tg=∑(Xi / Tgi)

[0180] Here, the solvent-affinity block portion is copolymerized by n monomer components from i=1 to n. Xi is the weight percentage of the i-th monomer (∑Xi=1), and Tgi is the glass transition temperature (absolute temperature) of the homopolymer of the i-th monomer. Here, ∑ is the sum of i=1 to n. It should be noted that the value of the homopolymer glass transition temperature (Tgi) of each monomer can be the value of Polymer Handbook (3rd Edition) (J. Brandrup, EH Immergut (Wiley-Interscience, 1989)).

[0181] The number of constituent units constituting the block portion having solvent affinity may be appropriately adjusted within the range in which the dispersibility of the colorant is improved. However, from the viewpoint of effectively acting the solvent affinity portion and the colorant affinity portion to improve the dispersibility of the colorant, the number of constituent units constituting the block portion having solvent affinity is preferably 10 or more and 200 or less, more preferably 10 or more and 100 or less, and even more preferably 10 or more and 70 or less.

[0182] The solvent-affinity block portion may be selected so as to function as a solvent-affinity site, and the repeating unit constituting the solvent-affinity block portion may contain one type or two or more types of repeating units.

[0183] Among them, among the dispersants in the present invention, a polymer having a structure represented by the above general formula (II) and an amine value of 40 mgKOH / g to 120 mgKOH / g is preferably contained from the viewpoint of good dispersibility, no precipitation of foreign matter during coating film formation, and improved brightness and contrast.

[0184] When the amine value is within the above range, the viscosity stability over time or heat resistance is excellent, and the alkali developability and solvent re-solubility are also excellent. In the present invention, the amine value of the dispersant is preferably 80 mgKOH / g or more, and more preferably 90 mgKOH / g or more from the viewpoint of dispersibility and dispersion stability. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of solvent re-solubility, the amine value of the dispersant is preferably 110 mgKOH / g or less, and more preferably 105 mgKOH / g or less.

[0185] The amine value refers to the number of mg of potassium hydroxide equivalent to perchloric acid required to neutralize the amine components contained in 1 g of the sample, and can be measured by the method defined in JIS-K7237. When measured by this method, even if the amino group in the dispersant forms a salt with the organic acid compound, the organic acid compound usually dissociates, so the amine value of the block copolymer itself used as the dispersant can be measured.

[0186] The acid value of the dispersant used in the present invention is preferably 1 mgKOH / g or more in terms of the effect of suppressing the developer residue. Among them, from the viewpoint of a better effect of suppressing the developer residue, the acid value of the dispersant is more preferably 2 mgKOH / g or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of dispersibility and dispersion stability, the acid value of the dispersant is preferably 0 mgKOH / g. In addition, from the viewpoint of preventing the deterioration of developer adhesion and the deterioration of solvent re-solubility, the acid value of the dispersant is preferably 18 mgKOH / g or less as the upper limit. Among them, from the viewpoint of improving developer adhesion and solvent re-solubility, the acid value of the dispersant is more preferably 12 mgKOH / g or less, and even more preferably 8 mgKOH / g or less.

[0187] In the dispersant used in the present invention, the acid value of the block copolymer before forming the salt is preferably 1 mgKOH / g or more, more preferably 2 mgKOH / g or more. This is because the inhibitory effect of the developer residue is improved. On the other hand, the acid value of the block copolymer before forming the salt is preferably 0 mgKOH / g from the viewpoint of dispersibility and dispersion stability. In addition, the upper limit of the acid value of the block copolymer before forming the salt is preferably 18 mgKOH / g or less, more preferably 12 mgKOH / g or less, and further more preferably 8 mgKOH / g or less. This is because the developer adhesion and solvent resolubility become good.

[0188] In addition, in the present invention, the glass transition temperature of the dispersant is preferably 30°C or more from the viewpoint of improving the development adhesion. That is, the dispersant, regardless of whether it is a block copolymer before forming a salt or a salt-type block copolymer, preferably has a glass transition temperature of 30°C or more. If the glass transition temperature of the dispersant is low, especially when it is close to the developer temperature (usually around 23°C), there is a possibility that the development adhesion will decrease. This is presumed to be because if the glass transition temperature is close to the developer temperature, the movement of the dispersant during development becomes larger, resulting in a deterioration in the development adhesion. By having a glass transition temperature of 30°C or more, it is presumed that the molecular movement of the dispersant during development is suppressed, thereby suppressing the reduction in the development adhesion.

[0189] The glass transition temperature of the dispersant is preferably 32° C. or higher, more preferably 35° C. or higher, from the viewpoint of development adhesion. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of operability during use such as easy accurate weighing, it is preferably 200° C. or lower.

[0190] The glass transition temperature of the dispersant of the present invention can be determined by measuring with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in accordance with JIS K7121.

[0191] If the colorant concentration is increased and the dispersant content is increased, the colored resin layer is easily peeled off from the base substrate during development because the amount of binder is relatively reduced. The dispersant contains a B block having a constituent unit derived from a carboxyl group-containing monomer and has the above-mentioned specific acid value and glass transition temperature, so the development adhesion is improved. It is estimated that if the acid value is too high, although the developability is excellent, it is easy to peel off during development because the polarity is too high.

[0192] As described above, in the present invention, from the viewpoints of excellent colorant dispersion stability and improved contrast, and suppressing the generation of development residues when prepared as a colored resin composition, excellent solvent resolubility, and high development adhesion, the above-mentioned dispersant is preferably a polymer containing a structure represented by the above-mentioned general formula (I) and an amine value of 40 mgKOH / g or more and 120 mgKOH / g or less, and an acid value of 1 mgKOH / g or more and 18 mgKOH / g or less, and a glass transition temperature of 30°C or more.

[0193] As the above-mentioned carboxyl-containing monomer, a monomer that can be copolymerized with a monomer having a constituent unit shown in the general formula (I) and that contains an unsaturated double bond and a carboxyl group can be used. As such a monomer, for example (meth) acrylic acid, vinyl benzoic acid, maleic acid, maleic acid monoalkyl esters, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, cinnamic acid, acrylic acid dimer, etc. can be cited. In addition, the addition reaction product of a monomer having a hydroxyl group such as (meth) 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and a cyclic acid anhydride such as maleic anhydride or phthalic anhydride, cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydride, ω-carboxyl-polycaprolactone mono(meth)acrylate, etc. can also be utilized. In addition, anhydride-containing monomers such as maleic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, citraconic anhydride, etc. can also be used as a precursor of a carboxyl group. Among them, from the perspectives of copolymerizability, cost, solubility, glass transition temperature, etc., (meth) acrylic acid is particularly preferred.

[0194] The content ratio of the constituent units derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer in the block copolymer before salt formation is not particularly limited and can be appropriately set so that the acid value of the block copolymer becomes within the range of the above-mentioned specific acid value. It is preferably 0.05 mass % to 4.5 mass %, more preferably 0.07 mass % to 3.7 mass %, relative to the total mass of the total constituent units of the block copolymer.

[0195] When the content ratio of the structural unit derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer is at least the above lower limit, the effect of suppressing development residue is expressed, and when it is at most the above upper limit, deterioration of development adhesion and deterioration of solvent re-dissolution can be prevented.

[0196] In addition, the structural unit derived from the carboxyl group-containing monomer only needs to have the above-mentioned specific acid value, and may contain 1 type, or may contain 2 or more types of structural units.

[0197] In addition, from the viewpoint of making the glass transition temperature of the dispersant used in the present invention above a specific value and improving the developing adhesion, it is preferred that the monomers whose homopolymer glass transition temperature (Tgi) is 10°C or above account for 75% by mass or more, more preferably 85% by mass or more, in total in the B block.

[0198] In the block copolymer, the ratio m / n of the number of units m of the constituent units of the A block to the number of units n of the constituent units of the B block is preferably in the range of 0.05 to 1.5, and is more preferably in the range of 0.1 to 1.0 from the viewpoint of the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant.

[0199] The weight average molecular weight Mw of the block copolymer is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1,000 to 20,000, more preferably 2,000 to 15,000, and even more preferably 3,000 to 12,000, from the viewpoint of improving the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant.

[0200] Here, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) is determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) in terms of standard polystyrene. It should be noted that the above conditions are also applied to the macromonomer, salt-type block copolymer, and graft copolymer serving as the raw material of the block copolymer.

[0201] The method for producing the above-mentioned block copolymer is not particularly limited. Block copolymers can be produced by known methods, preferably by living polymerization. This is because it is not easy to cause chain transfer or deactivation, and copolymers with uniform molecular weight can be produced, and dispersibility can be improved. As living polymerization methods, living anionic polymerization methods such as living free radical polymerization, group transfer polymerization, and living cationic polymerization methods can be cited. By these methods, monomers are polymerized in sequence to produce copolymers. For example, A block is first produced, and then A block and the constituent units constituting B block are polymerized, thereby block copolymers can be produced. In addition, in the above-mentioned production method, the polymerization order of A block and B block can also be reversed. In addition, A block and B block can also be produced separately, and then A block and B block are coupled.

[0202] Specific examples of such a block copolymer having a block portion containing a structural unit represented by the general formula (I) and a block portion having solvent affinity include block copolymers described in Japanese Patent No. 4911253.

[0203] In the present invention, from the viewpoint of the dispersibility or dispersion stability of the colorant, it is also preferred to use as a dispersant a substance obtained by forming a salt with an organic acid compound or a halogenated hydrocarbon with at least a part of the amino groups in the polymer containing the structural unit represented by the above general formula (I) (hereinafter, such a polymer may be referred to as a salt-type polymer).

[0204] Among them, from the viewpoint of excellent dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant, the polymer containing the repeating unit having a tertiary amine is preferably a block copolymer, and the organic acid compound is an acidic organic phosphorus compound such as phenylphosphonic acid or phenylphosphinic acid. As a specific example of the organic acid compound used as such a dispersant, the organic acid compounds recorded in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Gazette No. 2012-236882 can be cited as preferred examples.

[0205] In addition, as the halogenated hydrocarbon, from the viewpoint of excellent dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant, at least one of allyl halides such as allyl bromide and benzyl chloride and aralkyl halides is preferred.

[0206] In the colorant dispersion of the present invention, at least one polymer having a structural unit represented by the general formula (I) is used as a dispersant, and its content is appropriately selected according to the type of colorant used and the solid content concentration in the color resin composition for color filter described below.

[0207] The content of the dispersant is preferably 3 parts by mass or more and 45 parts by mass or less, more preferably 5 parts by mass or more and 35 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the total solid content in the colorant dispersion from the viewpoint of dispersibility and dispersion stability.

[0208] In particular, when forming a coating film or a colored layer with a high colorant concentration, the content of the dispersant is preferably 3 parts by mass or more and 25 parts by mass or less, and more preferably 5 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total solid content in the colorant dispersion.

[0209] It should be noted that in the present invention, the solid content refers to everything other than the above-mentioned solvent, and also includes monomers dissolved in the solvent.

[0210] <Solvent>

[0211] The solvent used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it is an organic solvent that does not react with the components in the colorant dispersion and can dissolve or disperse them. The solvent may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0212] Specific examples of the solvent include alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and methoxy alcohol; carbitol solvents such as methoxyethoxyethanol and ethoxyethoxyethanol; ester solvents such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, methyl methoxypropionate, ethyl methoxypropionate, ethyl ethoxypropionate, ethyl lactate, methyl hydroxypropionate, ethyl hydroxypropionate, n-butyl acetate, isobutyl acetate, n-butyl butyrate, and cyclohexanol acetate; ketone solvents such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone, and 2-heptanone; glycol ether acetate solvents such as methoxyethyl acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butyl acetate, 3-methoxybutyl acetate, and ethoxyethyl acetate; methoxyethoxyethyl acetate, ethoxyethoxyethyl acetate, and ethoxyethoxyethyl acetate. Carbitol acetate solvents such as acetate and butyl carbitol acetate (BCA); diacetates such as propylene glycol diacetate and 1,3-butanediol diacetate; glycol ether solvents such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol ethyl methyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, and dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether; aprotic amide solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and N-methylpyrrolidone; lactone solvents such as γ-butyrolactone; cyclic ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran; unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and naphthalene; saturated hydrocarbon solvents such as N-heptane, N-hexane, and N-octane; aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene and xylene, and other organic solvents. Among these solvents, glycol ether acetate solvents, carbitol acetate solvents, glycol ether solvents, and ester solvents are more suitable from the viewpoint of solubility of other components. Among them, as the solvent used in the present invention, from the viewpoint of solubility of other components and coating suitability, it is preferred to select one or more from the group consisting of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, 2-methoxyethyl acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol ethyl methyl ether, butyl carbitol acetate (BCA), 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butyl acetate, ethyl lactate, methyl 2-hydroxypropionate, and 3-methoxybutyl acetate.

[0213] In addition, from the viewpoint of developability, solvent re-dissolution, and the like, it is also preferred to use a mixed solvent containing two or more solvents.

[0214] When a mixed solvent is used, the above-mentioned glycol ether acetate solvent is preferably used as the first solvent for reasons of high safety, moderate volatility, moderate solubility and good dispersibility. Among them, 2-methoxyethyl acetate or propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate having a boiling point (referring to the boiling point under atmospheric pressure, the same applies hereinafter) of less than 150° C. is more preferred, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA) is particularly preferred.

[0215] As the second solvent (solvent other than the first solvent), a solvent having an alcoholic hydroxyl group or a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher is preferred. The second solvent may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0216] When a solvent having an alcoholic hydroxyl group is used as the second solvent, dispersibility becomes good and solvent re-dissolution properties tend to become good.

[0217] Examples of solvents having alcoholic hydroxyl groups include the above-mentioned alcohol solvents, the above-mentioned carbitol solvents, and the above-mentioned glycol ether solvents. Specific examples include propylene glycol monomethyl ether (boiling point 121° C.), 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butanol (boiling point 174° C.), and the like.

[0218] When a mixed solvent is used, the content of the solvent having an alcoholic hydroxyl group is preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, and further more preferably 2% by mass or less in the total solvent. In addition, it is preferably 0.1% by mass or more, more preferably 0.3% by mass or more, and further more preferably 1% by mass or more.

[0219] When the content is within the above range, the solubility of the dispersant is likely to be improved, and since dissolution of the dispersant in the first solvent is not inhibited, dispersion stability is likely to be improved.

[0220] When the first solvent has a boiling point of less than 150° C., if a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher is used as the second solvent, uneven drying and generation of foreign matter are less likely to occur, and solvent resolubility is also likely to be improved.

[0221] Examples of solvents having a boiling point of 150°C or higher include diethylene glycol ethyl methyl ether (boiling point 179°C), 3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butyl acetate (boiling point 188°C), diethylene glycol ethyl methyl ether (boiling point 179°C), and 3-methoxybutyl acetate (boiling point 172°C).

[0222] When a mixed solvent is used, the content of the solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher is preferably 40% by mass or less, more preferably 30% by mass or less, and preferably 3% by mass or more, more preferably 5% by mass or more, and even more preferably 10% by mass or more in the total solvent.

[0223] When the amount is within the above range, uneven drying is unlikely to occur, and the drying time is not excessively long, so that productivity is likely to be good.

[0224] The boiling point of the above-mentioned "solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher" is preferably 240° C. or lower, particularly preferably 200° C. or lower, from the viewpoint of not taking too long a drying time.

[0225] In the colorant dispersion of the present invention, the above solvent is usually preferably in the range of 55 mass % or more and 95 mass % or less, preferably in the range of 65 mass % or more and 90 mass % or less, and more preferably in the range of 70 mass % or more and 88 mass % or less, relative to the total amount of the colorant dispersion containing the solvent. If the solvent is too little, the viscosity increases and the dispersibility is easily reduced. In addition, if the solvent is too much, the colorant concentration is reduced and it is difficult to achieve the target chromaticity coordinates.

[0226] <Other ingredients>

[0227] The colorant dispersion of the present invention may further contain a dispersion aid resin and other components as needed without impairing the effects of the present invention.

[0228] Examples of the dispersion auxiliary resin include the alkali-soluble resins exemplified in the color filter color resin composition described below. The alkali-soluble resins provide steric hindrance to prevent the colorant particles from contacting each other, thereby stabilizing the dispersion and reducing the amount of the dispersant.

[0229] Examples of other components include surfactants for improving wettability, silane coupling agents for improving adhesion, defoamers, shrinkage inhibitors, antioxidants, anti-aggregating agents, and ultraviolet absorbers.

[0230] The colorant dispersion of the present invention is used as a preparatory preparation for modulating the color resin composition for color filter described later. That is, the so-called colorant dispersion is a relatively high colorant dispersion of P / V (colorant component mass in the composition) / (solid component mass other than the colorant component in the composition) prepared in the previous stage of modulating the color resin composition for color filter described later. Specifically, the ratio of (colorant component mass in the composition) / (solid component mass other than the colorant component in the composition) is usually 1.0 or more. By mixing the colorant dispersion with each component described later, a color resin composition for color filter with excellent dispersibility can be modulated.

[0231] [Method for producing colorant dispersion]

[0232] In the present invention, the method for producing the colorant dispersion is not particularly limited as long as it is a method in which the colorant is dispersed in a solvent using the dispersant. However, from the viewpoint of excellent dispersibility and dispersion stability of the colorant, it is preferably any of the following two production methods.

[0233] That is, the first method for producing a colorant dispersion of the present invention comprises: a step of preparing the above-mentioned dispersant; and a step of dispersing the colorant in a solvent in the presence of the above-mentioned dispersant. In the solvent in the presence of the above-mentioned dispersant, two or more colorants may be co-dispersed, or one or more colorants may be dispersed or co-dispersed and then two or more colorant dispersions may be mixed, thereby obtaining the colorant dispersion of the present invention.

[0234] In addition, the second method for producing a colorant dispersion of the present invention when using a dispersant that is a salt-type block copolymer comprises: mixing a solvent, the block copolymer, the organic acid compound, the halogenated hydrocarbon and the colorant, and dispersing the colorant while forming a salt with at least a part of the terminal nitrogen site of the constituent unit represented by the general formula (I) and the organic acid compound and the halogenated hydrocarbon. In the case of dispersing the colorant while forming a salt, two or more colorants may be co-dispersed, or one or more colorants may be dispersed or co-dispersed and then two or more colorant dispersions may be mixed, thereby obtaining the colorant dispersion of the present invention.

[0235] In the first production method and the second production method, the colorant can be dispersed using a conventionally known disperser.

[0236] Specific examples of the disperser include roller mills such as double roll mills and triple roll mills, ball mills such as ball mills and vibration ball mills, bead mills such as paint conditioners, continuous disc bead mills, and continuous annular bead mills. Regarding the preferred dispersion conditions of the bead mill, the diameter of the beads used is preferably 0.03 mm or more and 3.0 mm or less, and more preferably 0.05 mm or more and 2.0 mm or less.

[0237] [Coloring resin composition for color filter]

The components contained in the color resin composition for color filter of the present invention are described below, but the red colorant, the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant, the dispersant and the solvent, which are essential components of the colorant, are the same as those described in the colorant dispersion of the present invention, so the description is omitted here.

[0244] <Colorant>

[0245] The colorant in the colored resin composition for color filter of the present invention contains a red colorant and the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant as essential components, but other colorants may be used in combination in order to adjust the color tone.

[0246] The material that can develop the desired color when forming the coloring layer of the color filter is not particularly limited, and various organic pigments, inorganic pigments, and dispersible dyes can be used alone or in a mixture of two or more. Among them, organic pigments are preferably used because of their high color development and high heat resistance. As organic pigments, for example, compounds classified as pigments in the color index (CI; issued by The Society of Dyers and Colourists) can be cited, and specifically, materials with the following color index (CI) numbers can be cited.

[0247] In addition, as the above-mentioned dye that can be dispersed, various substituents can be given to the dye or a known lake (salt-making) method can be used to insolubilize the solvent, thereby the dye that can be dispersed, or the dye that can be dispersed by combining a solvent with low solubility. By using this kind of dye that can be dispersed in combination with the above-mentioned dispersant, the dispersibility and dispersion stability of the dye can be improved.

As such dyes, for example, azo dyes, metal complex azo dyes, anthraquinone dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, xanthene dyes, cyanine dyes, naphthoquinone dyes, quinone imine dyes, methine dyes, phthalocyanine dyes etc. can be mentioned.

[0249] It should be noted that, as a standard, if the amount of the dye dissolved is 10 mg or less relative to 10 g of the solvent (or mixed solvent), it can be determined that the dye is dispersible in the solvent (or mixed solvent).

[0250] As other coloring agents, it is preferable to use other yellow coloring agents and orange coloring agents not included in the above-mentioned red coloring agents.

[0251] Examples of other coloring agents include the following, but are not limited to these.

[0252] As other yellow coloring agents, CI Pigment Yellow 1, 3, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 24, 31, 55, 60, 61, 65, 71, 73, 74, 81, 83, 93, 95, 97, 98, 100, 101, 104, 106, 108, 109, 110, 113, 114, 116, 117, 119, 120, 126, 127, 128, 129, 138, 139, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 166, 167, 168, 175, 180 and 185 can be mentioned.

[0253] In the colored resin composition for color filter of the present invention, the content ratio of the red colorant relative to the entire colorant may be appropriately adjusted according to the desired chromaticity, and is not particularly limited.

[0254] Among them, from the viewpoint of reducing the phase difference value and at the same time broadening the color reproducibility and improving the contrast, the red colorant is preferably contained in an amount of 35 mass % to 99 mass % based on the total amount of the colorant, more preferably 40 mass % to 98 mass %, and even more preferably 45 mass % to 97 mass %.

[0255] In addition, from the viewpoint of reducing the phase difference value and at the same time broadening the color reproducibility and improving the contrast, the total content of the yellow colorant is preferably 1 mass % to 65 mass % relative to the total amount of the colorant, more preferably 2 mass % to 60 mass % or less, and even more preferably 3 mass % to 55 mass % or less.

[0256] In the coloring resin composition for color filters of the present invention, the total content of at least one anion selected from the group consisting of mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-anions of the azo compound represented by the above general formula (A) and the azo compound of its tautomeric structure, and ions of at least two metals selected from the group consisting of Cd, Co, Al, Cr, Sn, Pb, Zn, Fe, Ni, Cu and Mn, and the compound represented by the above general formula (B) (the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant) is appropriately adjusted according to the desired chromaticity and is not particularly limited.

[0257] In addition, in the color resin composition for color filters of the present invention, the colorant may further contain a red colorant and other colorants other than the yellow colorant within a range that does not impair the effects of the present invention, and the total content of the red colorant and the yellow colorant is preferably 60% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, more preferably 70% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and even more preferably 80% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less relative to the total amount of the colorant.

[0258] <Binder ingredients>

[0259] The color resin composition for color filter of the present invention contains a binder component for film-forming properties and adhesion to the coated surface. In order to give sufficient hardness to the coating film, it is preferably contained a curable binder component. There is no particular limitation on the curable binder component, and the curable binder component known to form the color layer of the color filter can be appropriately used.

[0260] As the curable adhesive component, for example, a substance containing the following components can be used: a photocurable adhesive component containing a photocurable resin that can be polymerized and cured by visible light, ultraviolet light, electron beams, etc.; a thermosetting adhesive component containing a thermosetting resin that can be polymerized and cured by heating.

[0261] When a photolithography process is used to form the colored layer, a photosensitive adhesive component having alkali developability is preferably used. In addition to the photosensitive adhesive component, a thermosetting adhesive component may be further used.

[0262] As the photosensitive adhesive component, there can be mentioned positive photosensitive adhesive components and negative photosensitive adhesive components. As the positive photosensitive adhesive component, there can be mentioned a system containing an alkali-soluble resin and an o-quinonediazide group-containing compound as a photosensitivity imparting component.

[0263] On the other hand, as the negative-type photosensitive binder component, a system containing at least an alkali-soluble resin, a polyfunctional monomer, and a photoinitiator is preferably used.

[0264] In the colored resin composition for color filters of the present invention, a negative photosensitive binder component is preferred from the viewpoint of being able to easily form a pattern by photolithography using an existing process.

[0265] Hereinafter, the alkali-soluble resin, the multifunctional monomer, and the photoinitiator constituting the negative photosensitive binder component will be specifically described.

[0266] (Alkali soluble resin)

[0267] The alkali-soluble resin of the present invention has an acidic group and can function as a binder resin. The alkali-soluble resin can be appropriately selected from resins soluble in an alkali developer used for pattern formation.

[0268] In the present invention, the alkali-soluble resin may have an acid value of 40 mgKOH / g or more.

[0269] The preferred alkali-soluble resin in the present invention is a resin having an acidic group, usually a carboxyl group, and specifically includes: acrylic resins such as acrylic copolymers having a carboxyl group and styrene-acrylic copolymers having a carboxyl group, epoxy (meth) acrylate resins having a carboxyl group, etc. Among them, it is particularly preferred to have a carboxyl group in the side chain and further have a photopolymerizable functional group such as an ethylenically unsaturated group in the side chain. This is because by containing a photopolymerizable functional group, the film strength of the formed cured film can be improved. In addition, acrylic resins such as these acrylic copolymers and styrene-acrylic copolymers, and epoxy acrylate resins can also be mixed and used in two or more kinds.

[0270] Acrylic resins such as acrylic copolymers having a structural unit having a carboxyl group and styrene-acrylic copolymers having a carboxyl group are (co)polymers obtained by (co)polymerizing a carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer and, if necessary, other copolymerizable monomers by a known method.

[0271] As the ethylenically unsaturated monomer containing a carboxyl group, for example (meth) acrylic acid, vinyl benzoic acid, maleic acid, maleic acid monoalkyl ester, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, cinnamic acid, acrylic acid dimer, etc. can be mentioned. In addition, the addition reaction product of the monomer having a hydroxyl group such as (meth) 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate and the cyclic acid anhydride such as maleic anhydride or phthalic anhydride, cyclohexane dicarboxylic anhydride, ω-carboxyl-polycaprolactone mono(meth) acrylate, etc. can also be utilized. In addition, the anhydride-containing monomers such as maleic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, citraconic anhydride can also be used as the precursor of the carboxyl group. Among them, from the viewpoints of copolymerizability, cost, solubility, glass transition temperature, etc., (meth) acrylic acid is particularly preferred.

[0272] Regarding the alkali-soluble resin, it is preferred to further have a hydrocarbon ring from the viewpoint of excellent adhesion of the coloring layer. By having a hydrocarbon ring as a bulky group in the alkali-soluble resin, shrinkage during curing is suppressed, peeling from the substrate is alleviated, and adhesion to the substrate is improved. In addition, the present inventors have found that by using an alkali-soluble resin having a hydrocarbon ring, the solvent resistance of the resulting coloring layer can be suppressed, especially the swelling of the coloring layer can be suppressed. The role of this has not yet been clarified, but it is speculated that by containing a bulky hydrocarbon ring in the coloring layer, the molecular motion in the coloring layer can be suppressed, resulting in a higher coating strength and suppression of swelling caused by the solvent.

[0273] Examples of such hydrocarbon rings include aliphatic hydrocarbon rings optionally having substituents, aromatic hydrocarbon rings optionally having substituents, and combinations thereof. The hydrocarbon rings optionally have substituents such as alkyl groups, carbonyl groups, carboxyl groups, oxycarbonyl groups, acylamino groups, hydroxyl groups, nitro groups, amino groups, and halogen atoms.

[0274] The hydrocarbon ring may be contained as a monovalent group or may be contained as a divalent or higher-valent group.

[0275] Specific examples of hydrocarbon rings include aliphatic hydrocarbon rings such as cyclopropane, cyclobutane, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, norbornane, tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]decane (dicyclopentane), and adamantane; aromatic hydrocarbon rings such as benzene, naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, and fluorene; chain polycyclic rings such as biphenyl, terphenyl, diphenylmethane, triphenylmethane, and stilbene; or cardol structure (9,9-diarylfluorene) and the like.

[0276] As the hydrocarbon ring, from the viewpoint of improving the heat resistance and adhesion of the colored layer and improving the brightness of the obtained colored layer, it is preferred that the hydrocarbon ring contains an aliphatic hydrocarbon ring.

[0277] In addition, from the viewpoint of improving the curability of the colored layer and improving the solvent resistance ((NMP swelling inhibition property), it is particularly preferred to contain the above-mentioned Cardol structure.

[0278] The alkali-soluble resin also preferably has a cross-linked hydrocarbon ring which is an aliphatic hydrocarbon ring having a structure in which two or more rings share two or more atoms.

[0279] Specific examples of the crosslinked hydrocarbon ring include norbornane, isobornane, adamantane, tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]decane, tricyclo[5.2.1.0(2,6)]decene, tricyclopentene, tricyclopentane, tricyclopentadiene, and dicyclopentadiene; and groups in which a part of these groups is substituted with a substituent.

[0280] Examples of the substituent include an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an alkylcycloalkyl group, a hydroxyl group, a carbonyl group, a nitro group, an amino group, and a halogen atom.

[0281] The number of carbon atoms in the crosslinked hydrocarbon ring is preferably 5 or more, particularly preferably 7 or more, from the viewpoint of compatibility with other materials and solubility in an alkali developer, and preferably 12 or less, particularly preferably 10 or less, to the upper limit.

[0282] In addition, the alkali-soluble resin preferably has a maleimide structure represented by the following general formula (III).

[0283] [Chemistry 12]

[0284] General formula (III)

[0285]

[0286] [In the general formula (III), R M is an optionally substituted hydrocarbon ring.]

[0287] When the alkali-soluble resin has a maleimide structure represented by the general formula (III), since it has a nitrogen atom in the hydrocarbon ring, it has excellent compatibility with the alkaline dispersant which is a polymer having a constituent unit represented by the general formula (I) above, and the development speed is fast, thereby improving the effect of suppressing development residue.

[0288] R of the general formula (III) M In the above, specific examples of the optionally substituted hydrocarbon ring include the same specific examples of the hydrocarbon ring described above.

[0289] Examples thereof include aliphatic hydrocarbon rings such as cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl and cyclooctyl, aromatic hydrocarbon rings such as phenyl, methylphenyl, ethylphenyl, dimethylphenyl, diethylphenyl, methoxyphenyl, benzyl, hydroxyphenyl and naphthyl, and groups in which a part of these groups is substituted with a substituent.

[0290] In the alkali-soluble resin used in the present invention, in addition to the structural unit having a carboxyl group, it is preferable to use an acrylic copolymer having a structural unit having a hydrocarbon ring, from the viewpoint that the amount of each structural unit can be easily adjusted and the function of the structural unit can be easily improved by increasing the amount of the structural unit having the hydrocarbon ring.

[0291] The acrylic copolymer including the structural unit having a carboxyl group and the above-mentioned hydrocarbon ring can be produced by using an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a hydrocarbon ring as the above-mentioned “other copolymerizable monomer”.

[0292] Examples of the ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a hydrocarbon ring include cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, dicyclopentanyl (meth)acrylate, adamantyl (meth)acrylate, isobornyl (meth)acrylate, benzyl (meth)acrylate, phenoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, and styrene. From the viewpoint of achieving a greater effect of maintaining the cross-sectional shape of the colored layer after development during a heat treatment, it is preferred to use at least one selected from the group consisting of cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, dicyclopentanyl (meth)acrylate, adamantyl (meth)acrylate, benzyl (meth)acrylate, and styrene.

[0293] In addition, the alkali-soluble resin used in the present invention preferably has an olefinic double bond in the side chain. In the case of having an olefinic double bond, in the curing process of the resin composition during color filter manufacturing, the alkali-soluble resins can form crosslinking bonds with each other or with a multifunctional monomer. The film strength of the cured film is further improved, the development resistance is improved, and the thermal shrinkage of the cured film is suppressed, and the adhesion between the cured film and the substrate becomes excellent.

[0294] The method for introducing olefinic double bonds into the alkali-soluble resin can be appropriately selected from the conventionally known methods. For example, a method of introducing olefinic double bonds into the side chain by adding a compound having both an epoxy group and an olefinic double bond in the molecule, such as glycidyl (meth)acrylate, to the carboxyl group of the alkali-soluble resin; a method of introducing olefinic double bonds into the side chain by introducing a constituent unit having a hydroxyl group into the copolymer in advance and then adding a compound having an isocyanate group and an olefinic double bond in the molecule.

[0295] The alkali-soluble resin of the present invention may further contain other structural units such as structural units having ester groups, such as methyl (meth)acrylate and ethyl (meth)acrylate. The structural unit having an ester group functions not only as a component that suppresses the alkali solubility of the coloring resin composition for color filters, but also as a component that improves the solubility in solvents and the solvent resolubility.

[0296] The alkali-soluble resin of the present invention is preferably an acrylic resin such as an acrylic copolymer and a styrene-acrylic copolymer having a structural unit having a carboxyl group and a structural unit having a hydrocarbon ring, and more preferably an acrylic resin such as an acrylic copolymer and a styrene-acrylic copolymer having a structural unit having a carboxyl group, a structural unit having a hydrocarbon ring, and a structural unit having an olefinic double bond.

[0297] The alkali-soluble resin can be prepared to have desired properties by appropriately adjusting the charge amount of each constituent unit.

[0298] The amount of the carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomers charged is preferably 5% by mass or more, more preferably 10% by mass or more, relative to the total amount of monomers, from the viewpoint of obtaining a good pattern. On the other hand, from the viewpoints of suppressing the film roughness of the pattern surface after development, the amount of the carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomers charged is preferably 50% by mass or less, more preferably 40% by mass or less, relative to the total amount of monomers.

[0299] If the proportion of the carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer is above the above lower limit, the resulting coating film has sufficient solubility in an alkaline developer. In addition, if the proportion of the carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer is below the above upper limit, during development with an alkaline developer, the formed pattern is less likely to fall off the substrate and the film on the pattern surface tends to be rough.

[0300] In addition, in acrylic resins such as acrylic copolymers and styrene-acrylic copolymers having structural units having ethylenic double bonds, which can be more preferably used as alkali-soluble resins, the content of the compound having both an epoxy group and an ethylenic double bond is preferably 10% by mass to 95% by mass, more preferably 15% by mass to 90% by mass, relative to the charge amount of the carboxyl-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer.

[0301] The preferred weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the carboxyl group-containing copolymer is preferably in the range of 1,000 to 50,000, more preferably 3,000 to 20,000. When it is less than 1,000, the binder function after curing may be significantly reduced, and when it exceeds 50,000, it may be difficult to form a pattern during development with an alkaline developer.

[0302] The weight average molecular weight (Mw) of the carboxyl group-containing copolymer can be measured by Shodex GPC System-21H using polystyrene as a standard substance and THF as an eluent.

[0303] The epoxy (meth)acrylate resin having a carboxyl group is not particularly limited, but an epoxy (meth)acrylate compound obtained by reacting a reaction product of an epoxy compound and an unsaturated group-containing monocarboxylic acid with an acid anhydride is suitable.

[0304] The epoxy compound, the unsaturated group-containing monocarboxylic acid and the acid anhydride can be appropriately selected from known ones and used. The epoxy (meth)acrylate resin having a carboxyl group may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0305] From the viewpoint of the developability (solubility) in the alkaline aqueous solution used in the developer, the alkali-soluble resin is preferably a resin having an acid value of 50 mgKOH / g or more. From the viewpoint of the developability (solubility) in the alkaline aqueous solution used in the developer and the viewpoint of the adhesion to the substrate, the acid value of the alkali-soluble resin is preferably 70 mgKOH / g or more and 300 mgKOH / g or less, and preferably 80 mgKOH / g or more and 280 mgKOH / g or less.

[0306] In addition, in this invention, the acid value can be measured according to JIS K 0070.

[0307] The ethylenic unsaturated bond equivalent when the side chain of the alkali-soluble resin has an ethylenic unsaturated group is preferably in the range of 100 to 2000, and particularly preferably in the range of 140 to 1500, from the viewpoint of obtaining the effect of improving the film strength of the cured film, improving the development resistance, and excellent adhesion to the substrate. If the ethylenic unsaturated bond equivalent is 2000 or less, the development resistance and adhesion are excellent. In addition, if it is 100 or more, since the proportion of other structural units such as the structural unit having a carboxyl group and the structural unit having a hydrocarbon ring can be relatively increased, the developability and heat resistance are excellent.

[0308] Here, the ethylenically unsaturated bond equivalent refers to the weight average molecular weight per 1 mol of the ethylenically unsaturated bonds in the alkali-soluble resin, and is represented by the following mathematical formula (1).

[0309] Mathematical formula (1)

[0310] Ethylenically unsaturated bond equivalent (g / mol) = W (g) / M (m0l)

[0311] (In mathematical formula (1), W represents the mass (g) of the alkali-soluble resin, and M represents the number of moles (mol) of olefinic double bonds contained in the alkali-soluble resin W (g).)

[0312] The ethylenically unsaturated bond equivalent can be calculated by measuring the number of ethylenic double bonds contained per gram of the alkali-soluble resin in accordance with the test method for iodine value described in JIS K 0070:1992, for example.

[0313] The alkali-soluble resin used in the coloring resin composition for color filters may be used alone or in combination of two or more, and its content is not particularly limited. The alkali-soluble resin is preferably 5% by mass or more and 60% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less, relative to the total solid content of the coloring resin composition for color filters. If the content of the alkali-soluble resin is above the lower limit, sufficient alkali developability is easily obtained. In addition, if the content of the alkali-soluble resin is below the upper limit, it is easy to suppress film roughness and pattern shedding during development.

[0314] (Multifunctional monomer)

[0315] The polyfunctional monomer used in the color resin composition for color filters is not particularly limited as long as it is a substance that can be polymerized using the above-mentioned photoinitiator. Generally, a compound having two or more ethylenically unsaturated double bonds is preferably used, and a polyfunctional (meth)acrylate having two or more acryloyl groups or methacryloyl groups is particularly preferred.

[0316] As such a polyfunctional (meth)acrylate, it is possible to appropriately select and use it from conventionally known ones, and specific examples thereof include those described in JP-A-2013-029832.

[0317] These multifunctional (meth)acrylates may be used alone or in combination of two or more. In addition, when the color resin composition for color filter of the present invention is required to have excellent photocurability (high sensitivity), the multifunctional monomer preferably has three (trifunctional) or more polymerizable double bonds, preferably poly (meth)acrylates of trivalent or more polyols, and their dicarboxylic acid modified products, specifically, preferably: trimethylolpropane tri (meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tri (meth)acrylate, succinic acid modified product of pentaerythritol tri (meth)acrylate, pentaerythritol tetra (meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol tetra (meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol penta (meth)acrylate, succinic acid modified product of dipentaerythritol penta (meth)acrylate, dipentaerythritol hexa (meth)acrylate, etc.

[0318] The content of the polyfunctional monomer used in the color resin composition for color filters is not particularly limited, and the polyfunctional monomer is preferably in the range of 5% by mass or more and 60% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less, relative to the total solid content of the color resin composition for color filters. If the content of the polyfunctional monomer is above the lower limit, photocuring is sufficiently advanced and the elution of the exposed part during development can be suppressed. In addition, if the content of the polyfunctional monomer is below the upper limit, alkali developability is sufficient.

[0319] (Photoinitiator)

[0320] There is no restriction|limiting in particular as an initiator used for the color resin composition for color filters of this invention, From various existing initiators, it can use 1 type or use 2 or more types in combination.

[0321] Examples of the initiator include aromatic ketones, benzoin ethers, halomethyl oxadiazole compounds, α-aminoketones, bisimidazoles, N,N-dimethylaminobenzophenone, halomethyl-s-triazine compounds, thioxanthone, and the like. Specific examples of the initiator include aromatic ketones such as benzophenone, 4,4'-bisdiethylaminobenzophenone, and 4-methoxy-4'-dimethylaminobenzophenone, benzoin ethers such as benzoin methyl ether, benzoins such as ethylbenzoin, bisimidazoles such as 2-(o-chlorophenyl)-4,5-phenylimidazole dimer, halomethyl oxadiazole compounds such as 2-trichloromethyl-5-(p-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole, and 2-trichloromethyl-5-(p-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole. -(4-butoxy-naphthalen-1-yl)-4,6-bis-trichloromethyl-s-triazine and other halomethyl-s-triazine compounds, 2,2-dimethoxy-1,2-diphenylethane-1-one, 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholinoacetone, 1,2-benzyl-2-dimethylamino-1-(4-morpholinophenyl)-butanone-1,1-hydroxy-cyclohexyl-phenyl ketone, benzyl, benzoylbenzoic acid, Benzoylbenzoic acid methyl ester, 4-benzoyl-4'-methyl diphenyl sulfide, benzyl methyl ketal, dimethylaminobenzoate, isopentyl p-dimethylaminobenzoate, 2-n-butoxyethyl-4-dimethylaminobenzoate, 2-chlorothioxanthone, 2,4-diethylthioxanthone, 2,4-dimethylthioxanthone, isopropylthioxanthone, 4-benzoyl-methyl diphenyl sulfide, 1-hydroxy-cyclohexyl-phenyl ketone, 2-benzyl- 2-(Dimethylamino)-1-[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-1-butanone, 2-(dimethylamino)-2-[(4-methylphenyl)methyl]-1-[4-(4-morpholinyl)phenyl]-1-butanone, α-dimethoxy-α-phenylacetophenone, phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide, 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-(4-morpholinyl)-1-propanone, and the like.

[0322] Among them, 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholinopropan-1-one, 2-benzyl-2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-morpholinophenyl)-1-butanone, 4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone, and diethylthioxanthone are preferably used. From the viewpoint of adjusting sensitivity, suppressing water bleeding, and improving development resistance, a combination of an α-aminoacetophenone-based initiator such as 2-methyl-1-[4-(methylthio)phenyl]-2-morpholinopropan-1-one and a thioxanthone-based initiator such as diethylthioxanthone is more preferred.

[0323] When an α-aminoacetophenone-based initiator and a thioxanthone-based initiator are used, their total content is preferably 5% by mass or more and 15% by mass or less relative to the total solid content of the colored resin composition. If the initiator amount is 15% by mass or less, it is preferred because the sublimation products in the manufacturing process are reduced. If the initiator amount is 5% by mass or more, the development resistance such as water bleeding is improved.

[0324] In the present invention, from the viewpoint of improving sensitivity, the initiator preferably contains an oxime ester photoinitiator. By using an oxime ester photoinitiator, it is easy to suppress the line width deviation within the surface when forming a fine line pattern. Furthermore, by using an oxime ester photoinitiator, there is a tendency for the effect of improving developability and suppressing the occurrence of water seepage to become higher. It should be noted that the so-called water seepage refers to the phenomenon that if a component that improves alkali developability is used, traces such as water seepage are produced after alkali development and washing with pure water. This kind of water seepage disappears after post-baking, so it is not a problem for the product, but after development, when the appearance of the pattern surface is inspected, it will be detected as uneven abnormality, resulting in the problem of being unable to distinguish between normal products and abnormal products. Therefore, if the inspection sensitivity of the inspection device is reduced during the appearance inspection, the yield of the final color filter product will be reduced, which becomes a problem.

[0325] From the viewpoint of reducing contamination of the color resin composition for color filters and contamination of the device caused by decomposition products, the oxime ester-based photoinitiator preferably has an aromatic ring, more preferably has a condensed ring containing an aromatic ring, and still more preferably has a condensed ring containing a benzene ring and a heterocyclic ring.

[0326] As the oxime ester photoinitiator, it can be appropriately selected from the oxime ester photoinitiators described in 1,2-octanedione-1-[4-(phenylthio)-, 2-(o-benzoyl oxime)], ethyl ketone, 1-[9-ethyl-6-(2-methylbenzoyl)-9H-carbazole-3-yl]-, 1-(o-acetyl oxime), JP-A-2000-80068, JP-A-2001-233842, JP-T-2010-527339, JP-T-2010-527338, JP-T-2013-041153, etc. As commercially available products, Irgacure OXE-02 (manufactured by BASF), ADEKA ARKLS NCI-831 (manufactured by ADEKA), TR-PBG-304 (manufactured by Changzhou Qiangli Electronic New Materials Co., Ltd.), ADEKA ARKLS NCI-930 (manufactured by ADEKA), TR-PBG-345, TR-PBG-3057 (manufactured by Changzhou Qiangli Electronic New Materials Co., Ltd.), Irgacure OXE-01 (manufactured by BASF), TR-PBG-365 (manufactured by Changzhou Qiangli Electronic New Materials Co., Ltd.) having a carbazole skeleton can be used. From the perspective of brightness, it is particularly preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator having a diphenyl sulfide skeleton or a fluorene skeleton. In addition, from the perspective of higher sensitivity, it is preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator having a carbazole skeleton.

[0327] In addition, from the viewpoint of easy improvement of brightness and development resistance and high effect of inhibiting water seepage, it is preferred to use two or more oxime ester photoinitiators in combination. From the viewpoint of high brightness and high heat resistance, it is particularly preferred to use two oxime ester photoinitiators with a diphenyl sulfide skeleton in combination, or to use an oxime ester photoinitiator with a diphenyl sulfide skeleton and an oxime ester photoinitiator with a fluorene skeleton in combination. In addition, from the viewpoint of excellent sensitivity and effect of inhibiting water seepage, it is preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator with a carbazole skeleton, an oxime ester photoinitiator with a fluorene skeleton or an oxime ester photoinitiator with diphenyl sulfide in combination.

[0328] In addition, from the perspective of inhibiting water permeation and improving sensitivity, it is preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator in combination with a photoinitiator having a tertiary amine structure. This is because the photoinitiator having a tertiary amine structure has a tertiary amine structure as an oxygen quencher in the molecule, so the free radicals generated by the initiator are not easily deactivated by oxygen, which can improve sensitivity. As commercially available products of the above-mentioned photoinitiator having a tertiary amine structure, for example, 2-methyl-1-(4-methylthiophenyl)-2-morpholinopropan-1-one (for example, Irgacure 907, manufactured by BASF), 2-benzyl-2-(dimethylamino)-1-(4-morpholinophenyl)-1-butanone (for example, Irgacure 369, manufactured by BASF), 4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone (for example, HicureABP, manufactured by Kawaguchi Pharmaceuticals), etc. can be cited.

[0329] In addition, from the perspective of sensitivity adjustment, suppression of water bleeding, and improvement of development resistance, it is preferred to combine a thioxanthone-based initiator with an oxime ester-based photoinitiator; from the perspective of brightness, improvement of development resistance, easy adjustment of sensitivity, high effect of suppressing the occurrence of water bleeding, and improvement of development resistance, it is preferred to combine two or more oxime ester-based photoinitiators with a thioxanthone-based initiator.

[0330] The content of the photoinitiator used in the color resin composition for color filter of the present invention is usually 0.01 parts by mass or more and 100 parts by mass or less, preferably 5 parts by mass or more and 60 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the above-mentioned multifunctional monomer. If this content is above the above lower limit, photocuring is sufficiently advanced and the elution of the exposed part during development is suppressed; on the other hand, if it is below the above upper limit, the yellowing property of the obtained color layer is weakened and the reduction in brightness can be suppressed.

[0331] In addition, as the photoinitiator used in the color resin composition for color filters of the present invention, the total content of two or more oxime ester photoinitiators is preferably in the range of 0.1 mass % to 12.0 mass % and more preferably in the range of 1.0 mass % to 8.0 mass % relative to the total solid content of the color resin composition for color filters from the viewpoint of fully exerting the combined effect of these photoinitiators.

[0332] Regarding the binder component used in the color resin composition for color filter of the present invention, their total content is preferably 35% by mass or more and 97% by mass or less, more preferably 40% by mass or more and 96% by mass or less relative to the total solid content of the color resin composition for color filter. If it is above the above lower limit, a colored layer with excellent hardness and adhesion to the substrate can be obtained. In addition, if it is below the above upper limit, the developability is excellent, and the occurrence of micro-wrinkles caused by heat shrinkage can also be suppressed.

[0335] Examples of the additives include, in addition to the antioxidant, mercapto compounds, polymerization inhibitors, chain transfer agents, leveling agents, plasticizers, surfactants, defoaming agents, silane coupling agents, ultraviolet absorbers, and adhesion promoters.

[0337] The antioxidant may be appropriately selected from known antioxidants. Specific examples of the antioxidant include hindered phenol antioxidants, amine antioxidants, phosphorus antioxidants, sulfur antioxidants, hydrazine antioxidants, etc. From the viewpoint of heat resistance, hindered phenol antioxidants are preferably used.

[0338] The hindered phenol antioxidant refers to an antioxidant containing at least one phenol structure and having a structure in which at least one of the 2-position and 6-position of the hydroxyl group based on the phenol structure is substituted with 4 or more carbon atoms.

[0339] Specific examples of hindered phenol antioxidants include butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate] (trade name: Irganox 1010, manufactured by BASF), 1,3,5-tris(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)isocyanurate (trade name: Irganox 3114, manufactured by BASF), 2,4,6-tris(4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylbenzyl)mesitylene (trade name: Irganox 1330, manufactured by BASF), 6-(4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenylamino)-2,4-bis(octylthio)-1,3,5-triazine (trade name: Irganox 565, manufactured by BASF), 2,2'-thiodiethyl bis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl) propionate] (trade name: Irganox 1035, manufactured by BASF), 1,2-bis[3-(4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl) propionyl] hydrazine (trade name: Irganox MD1024, manufactured by BASF), octyl 3-(4-hydroxy-3,5-diisopropylphenyl) propionate (trade name: Irganox 1135, manufactured by BASF), 4,6-bis(octylthiomethyl)-o-cresol (trade name: Irganox 1520L, manufactured by BASF), N,N'-hexamethylenebis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionamide] (trade name: Irganox 1098, manufactured by BASF), 1,6-hexanediol bis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate] (trade name: Irganox 259, manufactured by BASF), 1-dimethyl-2-[(3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)propionyloxy]ethyl]2,4,8,10-tetraoxaspiro[5.5] Undecane (trade name: ADK STABAO-80, manufactured by ADEKA), bis(3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-5-methylphenylpropionic acid)ethylenebis(oxyethylene) (trade name: Irganox 245, manufactured by BASF), 1,3,5-tris[[4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylphenyl]methyl]-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6(1H,3H,5H)-trione (trade name: Irganox 1790, manufactured by BASF), 2,2'-methylenebis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) (trade name: SUMILIZER MDP-S, manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical), 6,6'-thiobis(2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) (trade name: Irganox 1081, manufactured by BASF), 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzylsulfonic acid diester (trade name: Irgamod 195, manufactured by BASF), 2-tert-butyl-4-methyl-6-(2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-methylbenzyl)phenyl acrylate (trade name: SUMILIZER GM, manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical), 4,4'-thiobis(6-tert-butyl-m-cresol) (trade name: SUMILIZER WX-R, manufactured by Sumitomo Chemical), 6,6'-di-tert-butyl-4,4'-butylene di-m-cresol (trade name: ADEKASTAB AO-40, manufactured by ADEKA), etc. Other oligomer and polymer compounds having a hindered phenol structure may also be used. .

[0340] Among them, pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate] (trade name: IRGANOX 1010, manufactured by BASF) is preferred from the viewpoint of heat resistance and light resistance.

[0341] In addition, from the viewpoint of being able to form a colored layer that reduces the phase difference value and improves the brightness and contrast, a hindered phenol-based antioxidant having a molecular weight of 1000 or less and a molecular weight of 280 or less per phenolic hydroxyl group is preferred, and a hindered phenol-based antioxidant having a molecular weight of 500 or less and a molecular weight of 200 or less per phenolic hydroxyl group is more preferred. It is presumed that such an antioxidant has high fluidity and a large number of active points per unit weight, so it is easy to obtain the above-mentioned effect by suppressing the aggregation of the colorant caused by the rapid curing shrinkage during exposure or post-baking, or suppressing the yellowing of the resin, etc., by capturing free radicals. As such an antioxidant, for example, 6,6'-di-tert-butyl-4,4'-butylene-m-cresol (trade name: ADEKASTAB AO-40, manufactured by ADEKA) and the like can be cited.

[0342] In addition, in the present invention, from the viewpoint of being able to form a coloring layer that reduces the phase difference value and improves the contrast at the same time, it is preferred to use a latent antioxidant as an antioxidant. If a latent antioxidant is used, it is presumed that the free radical capture effect becomes higher, especially during post-baking, so that the aggregation of the colorant caused by the rapid curing shrinkage during post-baking is suppressed, thereby making it easy to obtain the above effect. The so-called latent antioxidant in the present invention is a compound having a protective group that can be detached by heating and exhibiting an antioxidant function by the detachment of the protective group. Among them, it is preferred that the protective group be easily detached by heating at or above 150°C.

As the latent hindered phenolic antioxidant, among them, it is suitable to use a structure in which the hydrogen of the phenolic group of the hindered phenolic antioxidant is replaced by a carbamate protective group such as a tert-butoxycarbonyl group. As specific examples, the following chemical formulas (a) to (c) can be mentioned, but are not limited to these.

The effect of improving these characteristics can be inferred to be due to the suppression of the colorant aggregation caused by the rapid curing shrinkage in the exposure process. The ultraviolet absorber can be appropriately selected from existing known substances.

[0393] Among the colored layers used in the color filter of the present invention, at least one is a cured product of the colored resin composition for color filter of the present invention, that is, a colored layer formed by curing the colored resin composition.

[0394] The colored layer is usually formed in the opening of the light shielding portion on the substrate described later, and is usually composed of colored patterns of three or more colors.

[0395] The arrangement of the coloring layer is not particularly limited, and may be a general arrangement such as a stripe type, a mosaic type, a triangle type, a 4-pixel arrangement type, etc. The width and area of ​​the coloring layer may be arbitrarily set.

[0396] The thickness of the colored layer is appropriately controlled by adjusting the coating method, the solid content concentration of the colored resin composition for color filters, the viscosity, and the like, and is usually preferably in the range of 1 μm or more and 5 μm or less.

[0397] This colored layer can be formed, for example, by the following method.

[0398] First, the color resin composition for color filter of the present invention is applied onto a substrate described below to form a wet coating film by using a coating means such as spray coating, dip coating, bar coating, roll coating, spin coating, and die coating. Among them, spin coating and die coating are preferably used.

[0399] Next, after the wet coating is dried using a hot plate or oven, it is exposed through a mask of a predetermined pattern to allow the alkali-soluble resin and the multifunctional monomer to undergo a photopolymerization reaction to form a cured coating. As the light source used for exposure, ultraviolet rays, electron beams, etc. such as low-pressure mercury lamps, high-pressure mercury lamps, and metal halide lamps can be cited. The exposure amount is appropriately adjusted according to the light source used, the thickness of the coating, etc.

The heating conditions are appropriately selected according to the mixing ratio of each component in the color resin composition for color filter used, the thickness of the coating film, and the like.

[0401] Next, a developing solution is used to perform a developing process, and a coating film is formed according to a desired pattern by dissolving and removing the unexposed portion. A solution obtained by dissolving an alkali in water or a water-soluble solvent is generally used as a developing solution. A surfactant or the like may also be added in an appropriate amount to this alkali solution. In addition, a general method may be used as a developing method.

[0402] After the development treatment, the developer is usually washed and the cured coating of the color filter colored resin composition is dried to form a colored layer. In addition, after the development treatment, a heat treatment may be performed to fully cure the coating. The heating conditions are not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected in accordance with the purpose of the coating.

In the case of a resin layer containing light-shielding particles, there are methods of patterning by development using a photosensitive resist, a method of patterning using an inkjet ink containing light-shielding particles, and a method of thermally transferring a photosensitive resist.

[0406] The film thickness of the light shielding portion is set to about 0.2 μm to about 0.4 μm in the case of a metal thin film, and is set to about 0.5 μm to about 2 μm in the case of a black pigment dispersed or dissolved in a binder resin.

After reacting for 30 minutes, 1.5 parts by mass of methanol was added to stop the reaction.

[0555]

[0556] [Evaluation method]

[0557] <Evaluation of dispersibility of colorant dispersion>

[0558] The viscosity of the colorant dispersions obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples was measured immediately after preparation and after storage at 25°C for 30 days, and the viscosity change rate was calculated from the viscosity before and after storage to evaluate the viscosity stability. The viscosity was measured using a vibration viscometer at 25.0±0.5°C. The results are shown in Tables 2 to 5.

[0559] (Viscosity stability evaluation criteria)

[0560] A: The viscosity change rate before and after storage is less than 10%;

[0561] B: The viscosity change rate before and after storage is 10% or more and less than 15%;

[0562] C: The viscosity change rate before and after storage is 15% or more and less than 25%;

[0563] D: The viscosity change rate before and after storage is 25% or more.

[0564] Here, this is a value when the colorant is set to 13% by mass based on the total mass of the solvent contained in the colorant dispersion.

[0565] When the evaluation result is C, the colorant dispersion liquid can be used in practice, but when the evaluation result is B, the colorant dispersion liquid is better, and when the evaluation result is A, the colorant dispersion liquid is excellent in dispersion stability.

[0566] <Optical performance evaluation, contrast evaluation>

[0567] The contrast, chromaticity (x, y), and brightness (Y) of the colored layers obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples were measured using a spectral characteristics measuring apparatus LCF-1500M manufactured by Otsuka Electronics and a contrast measuring apparatus CT-1B manufactured by Tsubosaka Electric.

[0582] B: 4000~5999:

[0583] C: Less than 4000.

[0584] <Evaluation of Phase Difference>

[0585] The phase difference of the colored layer is measured by the retardation (Rth) in the thickness direction calculated by the following formula. The retardation (Rth) is measured using a phase difference measuring device (Axoscan™ Mueller Matrix Polarimeter manufactured by AXOMETRICS). The measurement wavelength of the red colored layer is measured at 620 nm and 665 nm.

[0586] Rth=((Nx+Ny) / 2-Nz)d

[0587] Nx: refractive index in the slow axis direction in the plane;

[0588] Ny: refractive index in the fast axis direction in the plane;

[0589] Nz: refractive index in the thickness direction;

[0590] d: film thickness (nm).

[0591] <Evaluation of Solvent Resolubility>

[0592] The front end of a glass substrate with a width of 0.5 cm and a length of 10 cm was immersed in the color resin composition for color filters obtained in the examples and comparative examples, and applied to a 1 cm long portion of the glass substrate. The pulled glass substrate was placed in a constant temperature and humidity machine with the glass surface horizontal, and dried at a temperature of 23°C, a humidity of 80% RH, and for 10 minutes. Next, the glass substrate with the dried coating film attached was immersed in PGMEA for 15 seconds. The redissolution state of the dried coating film at this time was visually judged and evaluated.

[0593] (Evaluation criteria for solvent resolubility)

[0594] AA: The coating is completely dissolved in less than 8 seconds.

[0595] A: The dry coating is completely dissolved;

[0596] B: Flakes of dried coating are produced in the solvent, and the solution is colored;

[0597] C: No flakes of dried coating film were produced in the solvent, and the solution was not colored.

[0598] When the evaluation criteria are AA, A, or B, the solvent resolubility is evaluated to be good and the composition can be used practically without any problem. When the evaluation result is A or further AA, the effect is more excellent.

[0599] <Development Residue Evaluation>

[0600] The coloring resin composition for color filter obtained in the example and the comparative example was applied on a glass substrate (NH TECHNO GLASS (co., Ltd., "NA35") having a thickness of 0.7 mm and a size of 100 mm × 100 mm, respectively, using a spin coater, and then dried at 60° C. for 3 minutes using a hot plate to form a coloring layer having a thickness of 2.5 μm. The glass plate having the coloring layer formed thereon was subjected to shower development for 60 seconds using a 0.05 mass % potassium hydroxide aqueous solution as an alkaline developer. After visually observing the unexposed portion (50 mm × 50 mm) of the glass substrate after the coloring layer was formed, it was thoroughly wiped with a lens cleaning cloth containing ethanol (Toray Industries, Inc., trade name TORAYSEE MK cleaning cloth), and the degree of coloring of the lens cleaning cloth was visually observed.

[0601] (Development residue evaluation criteria)

[0602] AA: Even when the same evaluation was performed using a colored layer having a thickness of 3.5 μm, no development residue was visually confirmed, and the lens cleaning cloth was completely free of coloration;

[0603] A: No developer residue was visually confirmed, and the lens cleaning cloth was completely uncolored.

[0604] B: No development residue was visually observed, but slight coloration of the lens cleaning cloth was observed;

[0605] C: Slight development residue was visually confirmed, and coloring of the lens cleaning cloth was confirmed;

[0606] D: Development residue was visually confirmed, and coloring of the lens cleaning cloth was confirmed.

[0607] If the evaluation criteria are AA, A, B, or C, the device can be used practically, but if the evaluation result is B, further A, and further AA, the effect is more excellent.

[0608] <Development Resistance Evaluation>

[0609] The color filter colored resin compositions obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples were applied to a 0.7 mm thick glass substrate (NH TECHNO GLASS Co., Ltd., "NA35") using a spin coater. After drying on a hot plate at 80°C for 3 minutes, the color filter was irradiated with an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp at 40 mJ / cm 2 The film thickness at this time is measured and set as T1 (μm). Thereafter, shower development is performed using a 0.05 mass % potassium hydroxide aqueous solution as an alkaline developer. The film thickness after development is measured and set as T2 (μm). T2 / T1×100 (%) is calculated.

[0610] (Development resistance evaluation criteria)

[0611] AA: above 98%;

[0612] A: 95% or more and less than 98%;

[0613] B: 90% or more and less than 95%;

[0614] C: Less than 90%.

[0615] If the evaluation criteria are AA, A, and B, the device can be used practically, but if the evaluation result is A and further AA, the effect is more excellent.

[0616] <Water penetration evaluation>

[0617] The coloring resin composition for color filter obtained in the examples and comparative examples was applied on a glass substrate (NHTECHNOGLASS Co., Ltd., "NA35") using a spin coater and then baked to form a coloring layer with a thickness of 1.6 μm. The coating was then dried at 60° C. for 3 minutes using a hot plate and irradiated on the entire surface with 60 mJ / cm2 using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp without a photomask. 2 The glass substrate was exposed to ultraviolet light, thereby forming a colored layer on the glass substrate. Then, 0.05 wt% potassium (KOH) was used as a developer for rotary development, and after contacting with the developer for 60 seconds, it was washed with pure water for development. After the washed substrate was rotated for 10 seconds and centrifuged to remove water, the contact angle of pure water was immediately measured as follows to evaluate water permeation.

[0618] The contact angle of pure water was measured by dropping 1.0 μL of pure water onto the surface of the colored layer immediately after centrifugation to measure the static contact angle 10 seconds after the droplet landed using the θ / 2 method. The measurement was performed using a contact angle meter DM 500 manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.

[0619] (Water penetration evaluation criteria)

[0620] AA: contact angle above 80 degrees;

[0621] A: The contact angle is more than 75 degrees and less than 80 degrees;

[0622] B: The contact angle is more than 65 degrees and less than 75 degrees;

[0623] C: The contact angle is more than 50 degrees and less than 65 degrees;

[0624] D: The contact angle is less than 50 degrees.

[0625] If the water infiltration evaluation criteria are AA, A or B, practical use can be made. However, if the evaluation result is A and further AA, the effect is even more excellent.

[0626] <SiN Adhesion Evaluation>

[0627] The colored resin compositions for color filters obtained in each example and comparative example were respectively coated on a SiN substrate (manufactured by Foresight Co., Ltd.) using a spin coater, dried on a hot plate at 80 °C for 3 minutes, irradiated with ultraviolet rays of 60 mJ / cm 2 using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp, and then post-baked in a clean oven at 230 °C for 30 minutes, thereby adjusting the film thickness so that the cured film thickness became 2.10 μm to form a colored layer.

[0628] For the obtained colored layer, a cross-cut adhesion test (cross-cut test) according to JIS K 5600-5-6 was performed. After repeating the peeling operation using tape 5 times, the presence or absence of peeling of the coating film was observed and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria.

[0629] (SiN Adhesion Evaluation Criteria)

[0630] AA: No peeling is observed in any of the grids;

[0631] A: Although there is slight peeling of the coating film at the intersection of the cross-cut, the occupied area of the peeling is less than 5%;

[0632] B: The coating film peels off along the scribed lines at the intersection. The occupied area of the peeling is 5% or more and less than 15%;

[0633] C: The coating film peels off locally and overall along the scribed lines. The occupied area of the peeling is 15% or more and less than 35%.

[0634] [Result Summary]

[0635] As can be seen from the results in the table, the colorant dispersions of Examples 1 to 41 and 47, in which the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant is combined with the red colorant and further a dispersant belonging to a polymer having a structural unit represented by the general formula (I), have good viscosity stability. On the other hand, it is clear that the colorant dispersion of Comparative Example 1, in which the existing yellow colorant and a carbamate-based dispersant are combined with the red colorant, has poor viscosity stability. In addition, it is clear that even the colorant dispersion of Comparative Example 2, in which the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant is combined with the red colorant and a carbamate-based dispersant is combined, has poor viscosity stability.

[0636] In addition, the colorant dispersions of Comparative Examples 3 to 7, in which a red colorant was combined with a conventional yellow colorant, showed poor viscosity stability even when a dispersant that was a polymer having a structural unit represented by the general formula (I) was used.

[0637] In addition, it was found that the coloring resin compositions for color filters of Examples 1 to 48, which combined the above-mentioned specific yellow coloring agent with the red coloring agent and further combined a dispersant belonging to a polymer having a structural unit represented by the general formula (I), had good coloring agent dispersion stability, and the phase difference value of the coloring layer using the coloring resin composition was reduced and the contrast was excellent. In addition, it was found that the coloring layers using the coloring resin compositions of Examples 1 to 48 had excellent adhesion to SiN, and among them, the coloring layers using the coloring resin compositions of Examples 11, 44, 45, 46, and 48 had excellent adhesion to SiN. In addition, the adhesion to SiN of Example 10 was A, which was close to AA, and was good.

[0638] On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 1 and 3 to 7 in which a colorant different from that of the Example was combined, the contrast difference and the phase difference were all larger than those of the Example having the same chromaticity coordinates (x, y).

[0639] In addition, even in Comparative Example 2 in which the above-mentioned specific yellow colorant is combined with the red colorant and the urethane dispersant is combined, the contrast difference and the phase difference value are larger than those of the examples having the same chromaticity coordinates (x, y).

[0640] Moreover, in Comparative Examples 1 and 3 to 7, the P / V ratio of the colored resin composition tends to be larger than that of the Examples having the same chromaticity coordinates (x, y), and the adhesion to SiN is also inferior.

[0641] In addition, in Comparative Example 1, compared with Examples having the same chromaticity coordinates (x, y), the solvent resolubility, suppression of development residue, development resistance, and water bleeding were also inferior.

[0642] It is clear that in the examples in which both the maleimide structure and the styrene structure having a hydrocarbon ring are contained as the alkali-soluble resin and an antioxidant is added, a colored layer with suppressed development residue and improved brightness is formed.

[0643] In addition, it is clear that when two oxime ester photoinitiators and an antioxidant are used in combination, a colored layer with improved development resistance and brightness is formed. Among them, from the viewpoint of excellent brightness, it is preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator having a fluorene skeleton and an oxime ester photoinitiator having diphenyl sulfide in combination; from the viewpoint of a higher water bleed inhibition effect, it is preferred to use an oxime ester photoinitiator having a carbazole skeleton and an oxime ester photoinitiator having diphenyl sulfide in combination.

[0644] In Example 44, a hindered phenol antioxidant having a molecular weight of 500 or less and a molecular weight of 200 or less per phenolic hydroxyl group was used, and a colored layer with reduced retardation and improved brightness was formed. In Example 44, a contrast ratio A close to AA was obtained, and a colored layer with improved contrast was obtained.

[0645] In Example 45 using a latent antioxidant, the phase difference value was reduced, the contrast was A close to AA, and the colored layer with improved contrast was obtained.

[0646] In Example 46 using an ultraviolet absorber, a colored layer was obtained in which the retardation value was reduced, the contrast was A close to AA, and the contrast was also improved.

[0647] In Example 48, an oxime ester photoinitiator having a carbazole skeleton and an oxime ester photoinitiator having diphenyl sulfide were used in combination, and a hindered phenol antioxidant having a molecular weight of 500 or less and a molecular weight of 200 or less per phenolic hydroxyl group and an ultraviolet absorber were used in combination. A colored layer with reduced retardation, improved brightness, and improved water bleeding inhibition effect was formed. In Example 48, a colored layer with a contrast ratio of A close to AA and improved contrast was obtained.
