Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of liquid crystal displays, and in particular to a method for improving poor orientation at a silk-screen printing location of an internal silk-screen LCD product. Background Art

[0002] Liquid crystal display (LCD) is one of the core technologies of modern display and is widely used in consumer electronics, industrial control, automotive electronics and other fields. Traditional LCD products usually use screen printing outside the polarizer or screen printing outside the surface to complete the processing of the display structure. However, under the display conditions of large viewing angles, light leakage often occurs in the screen printing area, which has a significant impact on the display effect. Especially in some high-end display scenarios, high requirements are placed on brightness uniformity and optical consistency. The light leakage problem has become a key factor affecting product competitiveness.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the LCD industry has gradually developed an internal screen printing process, which is to transfer the screen printing process to the inside of the LCD for operation. Compared with the external screen printing process, the internal screen printing can effectively improve the light leakage problem under a large viewing angle and improve the optical performance of the display. However, the application of the internal screen printing process has not completely solved all technical problems. During the production process, the abnormal arrangement of liquid crystal molecules in the screen printing area often occurs. This problem not only affects the brightness uniformity of the display, but may also cause display defects such as local blur or color shift.

[0004] The abnormal arrangement of liquid crystal molecules is mainly affected by many factors, such as temperature and humidity fluctuations in the production environment, uneven tension of the steel mesh in the screen printing process, and unstable adhesion of the ink. In addition, after the screen printing is completed, the conditions of subsequent processes such as curing and cleaning operations are not properly controlled, which may further aggravate the defects in the screen printing area. The combined effect of these factors has led to a high defect rate of internal screen printing LCD products during mass production, which directly affects the market competitiveness of the products.

[0005] The above problems are common in the LCD industry, especially in high-end display scenarios that pursue wide viewing angles and high contrast. Therefore, focusing on the internal screen printing process, in-depth research on the factors that affect the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules during the production process, and seeking methods to improve the consistency of liquid crystal molecular orientation are of great significance for improving the optical performance and production yield of LCD products. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for improving the poor orientation of the silk-screen printing area of ​​the inner silk-screen printing LCD product, which solves the problem of poor orientation of liquid crystal molecules in the silk-screen printing area of ​​the inner silk-screen printing LCD product.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: A method for improving the poor orientation of the silk screen of an internal silk screen printed LCD product, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1. Clean and dry the screen printing surface;

[0009] S2. Before the internal screen printing operation, the ambient temperature and humidity must be strictly controlled;

[0017] The temperature is maintained at 23±3℃, the humidity is controlled at 53-58%RH, and the internal screen printing operation can only be carried out after the environmental conditions have been stable for more than 30 minutes.

[0018] Preferably, in step S3, the tension of the steel mesh is controlled at 22-23N, and the equipment is calibrated so that the tension difference between the periphery and the center of the steel mesh does not exceed 1N.

[0019] Preferably, in step S5, the curing temperature is controlled at 160-200° C., and the curing time is 1.5-2.5 hours.

[0020] Preferably, in step S6, the cleaning line speed is set to 2-3 m / min, and the cleaning liquid temperature is controlled within the range of 40-60°C.

[0021] Preferably, the concentration range of the chiral agent S811 in step S7 is further refined as follows:

[0022] When the concentration is 0.20-0.24%, it is used to improve the low orientation defect rate in the liquid crystal box;

By strictly controlling the concentration of the chiral agent S811 at 0.20-0.26% and the infusion rate at 0.1-0.3 ml / s, the accuracy of the liquid crystal orientation is guaranteed, thereby effectively reducing the defective rate and meeting the demand for mass production of liquid crystal display screens.

[0062] Implementation summary: This embodiment is operated strictly in accordance with the basic parameters of the technical solution in the document. The screen printing surface is cleaned with deionized water, and the drying temperature and time are controlled to eliminate surface particle contamination; at the same time, the ambient temperature and humidity are strictly controlled before the internal screen printing operation (23°C, humidity 55%, stable for 30 minutes), providing suitable environmental conditions for the stable arrangement of liquid crystal molecules. In the screen printing operation, a 500-mesh BOPP18 wire diameter steel mesh is used with a tension of 23N, and the tension difference is controlled within 0.8N to ensure the uniformity and adhesion of the ink. In the subsequent curing stage, the ink layer is fully cured by treating at 180°C for 2 hours, and the film removal and cleaning eliminates the residue. Finally, the arrangement of the liquid crystal molecules is corrected by configuring a chiral agent with a concentration of 0.24% and drying at 100°C for 10 minutes.

It significantly improves the phenomenon of poor orientation of liquid crystal molecules by controlling basic process parameters, and provides a stable basic condition for the optical performance of subsequent liquid crystal boxes. This embodiment is suitable for large-scale mass production of ordinary display screens and has good process operability and stability.

[0064] Embodiment 2:

[0065] Method steps and implementation process:

[0066] Cleaning and drying (S1): Use deionized water to rinse the screen printed surface and further treat it with a special cleaning solution at 70°C; after cleaning, place it in a drying device with the drying temperature set to 75°C and the drying time set to 12 minutes to further improve the cleaning effect.

[0067] Ambient temperature and humidity control (S2): Before the internal screen printing operation, the ambient temperature is adjusted to 23.5°C, the humidity is controlled at 56%, and the stabilization time is extended to 35 minutes to reduce the impact of environmental fluctuations on the liquid crystal orientation.

[0068] Screen printing operation (S3 & S4): Use 500 mesh BOPP18 wire diameter steel screen, adjust the steel screen tension to 22.5N, and optimize the tension difference between the periphery and the center to 0.5N to ensure uniformity of screen printing; the ink height is controlled to 4.5μ to further improve the consistency of the ink layer.

[0070] De-filming cleaning (S6): The cleaning line speed is increased to 2.5 m / min, and the cleaning liquid temperature is adjusted to 50°C. The cleaning efficiency and surface cleanliness are improved through higher speed and temperature.

[0071] Chiral agent preparation and injection (S7): Chiral agent S811 is prepared, and the concentration is optimized to 0.22%. The injection rate is increased to 0.25 ml / s to ensure that the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal box are more evenly distributed.

[0073] Implementation summary: Based on Example 1, this example optimizes the cleaning, environmental control, screen printing, curing and heat drying links. For example, a special cleaning liquid at 70°C is added during the cleaning stage, the drying temperature is increased to 75°C, and the time is extended to 12 minutes to make the screen printing surface cleaner. Before the internal screen printing operation, the ambient temperature is adjusted to 23.5°C, the humidity is controlled at 56%, and the stabilization time is extended to 35 minutes to further reduce the interference of environmental fluctuations on the liquid crystal orientation. During the screen printing stage, the tension is optimized to 22.5N, the tension difference is reduced to 0.5N, and the ink height is reduced to 4.5μ, which enhances the uniformity and optical consistency of the ink layer. The subsequent curing temperature is increased to 185°C, and the time is extended to 2 hours and 15 minutes to further improve the adhesion performance of the ink layer; the speed and temperature of the film removal cleaning are increased to improve the cleaning efficiency. The concentration of the chiral agent is optimized to 0.22%, and the perfusion rate is increased to 0.25ml / s to ensure a more uniform distribution of the chiral agent in the liquid crystal box. The heat drying temperature was adjusted to 102°C and the time was extended to 12 minutes, which effectively improved the orientation consistency.

[0074] The optimization measures of Example 2 still strictly comply with the parameter range of the document technical solution. By optimizing the cleaning process, screen printing uniformity and thermal baking conditions, the liquid crystal molecular orientation consistency and display brightness uniformity are further improved. This embodiment is suitable for the production needs of mid-to-high-end display screens, and can effectively reduce the phenomenon of poor orientation and improve display performance.

[0075] Embodiment three:

[0076] Method steps and implementation process:

[0077] Cleaning and drying (S1): Use deionized water to rinse the screen printing surface and treat it with a 60°C special cleaning solution; after cleaning, place it in a drying device, adjust the drying temperature to 78°C, and extend the drying time to 15 minutes to ensure that the surface is completely clean.

[0078] Ambient temperature and humidity control (S2): Before the internal screen printing operation, the ambient temperature is accurately adjusted to 23.7°C, the humidity is adjusted to 55.5%, and the stabilization time is extended to 40 minutes to further reduce the interference of the external environment on the screen printing effect.

[0081] De-filming and cleaning (S6): The cleaning line speed is adjusted to 3 m / min and the cleaning liquid temperature is increased to 55 °C to further improve the de-filming and cleaning efficiency and reduce the risk of contamination after cleaning.

[0082] Chiral agent preparation and injection (S7): Chiral agent S811 is prepared, the concentration is increased to 0.26%, and the injection rate is increased to 0.3 ml / s to ensure that the liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal box are more accurately and evenly distributed.

[0083] Thermal baking treatment (S8): placing the product racks in an oven, adjusting the rack spacing to 10 mm, setting the thermal baking temperature to 100° C., and extending the thermal baking time to 15 minutes, to further improve the alignment consistency of the liquid crystal molecules.

[0084] Implementation summary:

[0085] On the basis of Example 2, this embodiment further refines and optimizes each link. For example, a special cleaning liquid at 60°C is used in the cleaning stage, and ultrasonic cleaning technology is combined to improve the cleaning effect. The drying temperature is increased to 78°C and the time is extended to 15 minutes, so that the surface cleanliness of the screen printing meets higher requirements. Before the internal screen printing operation, the ambient temperature is accurately adjusted to 23.7°C, the humidity is controlled at 55.5%, and the stabilization time is extended to 40 minutes to minimize the impact of the environment on the screen printing process. In the screen printing stage, the steel mesh tension is adjusted to 22N, the tension difference is reduced to 0.3N, and the ink height is optimized to 4.2μ to ensure that the ink layer distribution is highly consistent. The temperature in the curing stage is increased to 190°C and the time is extended to 2 hours and 30 minutes to further improve the curing effect of the ink layer. The defilming cleaning line speed is increased to 3m / min and the temperature is increased to 55°C, which significantly improves the cleaning efficiency. The concentration of the chiral agent is increased to 0.26%, and the perfusion rate is increased to 0.3ml / s to ensure that the distribution of liquid crystal molecules in the liquid crystal box is more accurate and consistent. The heat-baking temperature was adjusted to 100°C, the time was extended to 15 minutes, and the rack spacing was expanded to 10 mm, which ultimately made the liquid crystal molecules more orderly and the orientation deviation angle less than ±0.8°.

[0086] Based on the documented technical solution, Example 3 further refines the process parameters, and achieves high consistency in the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules through precise environmental control, cleaning technology improvement, and thermal baking optimization. Especially in the production of high-precision display screens, this process can significantly improve the optical performance and brightness uniformity of the product, meeting the strict requirements of high-end display screens.
