Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a colorant-containing liquid, a colored resin composition, a color filter, an image display device, and a method for producing the colored resin composition.

[0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2022-161334 filed in Japan on October 6, 2022, and Japanese Patent Application No. 2022-161335 filed in Japan on October 6, 2022, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background Art

[0003] Conventionally, pigment dispersion, dyeing, electrodeposition, and printing methods are known as methods for manufacturing color filters for liquid crystal display devices, etc. Among them, the pigment dispersion method is the most widely used because it has excellent average properties from the viewpoints of spectral characteristics, durability, pattern shape, and precision.

[0004] In recent years, color filters have been required to have higher brightness, higher contrast, and higher color gamut. As a coloring material that determines the color of a color filter, pigments are generally used from the perspectives of heat resistance and light resistance, but pigments, especially high brightness, are gradually failing to meet market demand, and research is being actively conducted on using dyes as coloring materials instead of pigments.

[0005] For example, research has been conducted on the use of phthalocyanine dyes for green pixel applications (see, for example, Patent Document 1), and research has been conducted on the use of xanthene dyes for blue pixel applications (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

[0006] On the other hand, Patent Document 3 describes that a curable composition containing a specific photopolymerization initiator can achieve satisfactory compatibility between sensitivity and the transparency and brightness of a cured product.

Preferred examples of the copper phthalocyanine pigment include CI Pigment Blue 15, 15:1, 15:2, 15:3, 15:4, and 15:6, and CI Pigment Blue 15:6 is more preferred.

[0125] Examples of the violet pigment include CI Pigment Violet 1, 1:1, 2, 2:2, 3, 3:1, 3:3, 5, 5:1, 14, 15, 16, 19, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 32, 37, 39, 42, 44, 47, 49, and 50.

[0126] Among these, from the viewpoint of heat resistance, a violet dioxazine pigment is preferred. As the dioxazine pigment, for example, CI Pigment Violet 19 and 23 are preferably mentioned, and CI Pigment Violet 23 is more preferred.

[0127] The average primary particle size of the pigment is preferably 0.2 μm or less, more preferably 0.1 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.04 μm or less. When the pigment is finely divided, a method such as the above-mentioned solvent salt grinding can be suitably used.

[0128] The content ratio of the phthalocyanine compound (1) in the colorant-containing liquid of the present invention is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 80% by mass or more, relative to the total solid content of the colorant-containing liquid. In addition, it is preferably 99.5% by mass or less, more preferably 99% by mass or less. By setting it below the above upper limit, there is a tendency for the stability of the colorant-containing liquid to be improved. By setting it above the above lower limit, there is a tendency for the tinting power to be improved. The above upper and lower limits may be combined arbitrarily.

[0129] For example, the content ratio of the phthalocyanine compound (1) in the total solid content of the liquid containing the colorant is preferably 50 to 99.5% by mass, more preferably 80 to 99% by mass.

[0130] The content ratio of the colorant (A) in the total solid content of the colorant-containing liquid is preferably 40% by mass or more, more preferably 50% by mass or more, and even more preferably 60% by mass or more, and is preferably 99.9% by mass or less, more preferably 99.5% by mass or less, and even more preferably 99% by mass or less. If the content ratio of the colorant (A) is at least the lower limit, the coloring power tends to be improved, and if it is at most the upper limit, the stability of the colorant-containing liquid tends to be improved.

[0131] The above upper and lower limits may be arbitrarily combined, and are, for example, preferably 40 to 99.9% by mass, more preferably 50 to 99.5% by mass, and even more preferably 60 to 99% by mass.

[0141] Ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl amyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, methyl isoamyl ketone, diisopropyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, ethyl amyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, methyl hexyl ketone, methyl nonyl ketone, and methoxymethyl amyl ketone;

[0142] Monohydric or polyhydric alcohols such as ethanol, propanol, butanol, hexanol, cyclohexanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, triethylene glycol, methoxymethylpentanol, glycerol, and benzyl alcohol;

[0144] Alicyclic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, methylcyclohexene, and bicyclohexane;

[0145] Aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and cumene;

[0146] Chain or cyclic esters such as amyl formate, ethyl formate, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, propyl acetate, amyl acetate, methyl isobutyrate, ethylene glycol acetate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, butyl butyrate, isobutyl butyrate, methyl isobutyrate, ethyl octanoate, butyl stearate, ethyl benzoate, methyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, methyl 3-methoxypropionate, ethyl 3-methoxypropionate, propyl 3-methoxypropionate, butyl 3-methoxypropionate, and γ-butyrolactone;

[0151] Examples of commercially available solvents that meet the above requirements include mineral spirits, VALSOL#2, APCO#18solvent, Apco thinner, Socal solvent No.1 and No.2, SOLVESSO#150, SHELL TS28solvent, carbitol, ethyl carbitol, butyl carbitol, methyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve acetate, methyl cellosolve acetate, and diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (all trade names). These solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0152] When forming color filter pixels by photolithography, it is preferred to select a solvent having a boiling point in the range of 100 to 200°C (under a pressure of 1013.25 [hPa]. Hereinafter, the same shall apply to boiling points.) More preferably, a solvent having a boiling point of 120 to 170°C is selected.

[0153] Among the above solvents, glycol alkyl ether acetates are preferred because they have a good balance between coating properties and surface tension and have high solubility of components in the liquid containing the colorant.

[0154] In addition, glycol alkyl ether acetates can be used alone or in combination with other solvents. As a solvent used in combination, glycol monoalkyl ethers are particularly preferred. Among them, propylene glycol monomethyl ether is preferred, especially from the aspect of the solubility of the constituent components in the liquid containing the colorant. It should be noted that glycol monoalkyl ethers have high polarity. If the amount added is too much, there is a tendency that the pigment is easy to aggregate, the viscosity of the colored resin composition obtained thereafter increases, and the storage stability tends to decrease. Therefore, the proportion of glycol monoalkyl ethers in the (B) solvent is preferably 5% to 30% by mass, and more preferably 5% to 20% by mass.

[0155] As another embodiment, a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher may be used in combination.

[0156] By using a solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more in combination, the colored resin composition becomes difficult to dry, but there is an effect that the mutual relationship of the constituent components in the liquid containing the colorant is not easily destroyed due to rapid drying. When a solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more is used in combination, the content ratio of the solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more in the solvent (B) is preferably 3% by mass to 50% by mass, more preferably 5% by mass to 40% by mass, and particularly preferably 5% by mass to 30% by mass. By setting it to be above the lower limit, there is a tendency to avoid, for example, the precipitation / solidification of the coloring material component at the front end of the slit nozzle to cause foreign matter defects. In addition, by setting it to be below the upper limit, there is a tendency to easily avoid the drying speed of the colored resin composition being slowed down, causing problems such as poor rhythm of the reduced pressure drying process and pin marks of pre-baking.

[0157] The solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher may be a glycol alkyl ether acetate or a glycol alkyl ether. In this case, it is not necessary to separately contain a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher.

[0158] Preferred examples of the solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher include diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, 1,3-butanediol diacetate, 1,6-hexanol diacetate, and glycerol triacetate.

[0159] When forming pixels of a color filter by an inkjet method, a solvent having a boiling point of generally 130° C. to 300° C., preferably 150° C. to 280° C. is suitable. When the boiling point is set to be equal to or higher than the lower limit, the uniformity of the obtained coating film tends to be improved, and when the boiling point is set to be equal to or lower than the upper limit, the residual solvent during firing tends to be easily reduced.

[0160] From the viewpoint of uniformity of the obtained coating film, a solvent having a vapor pressure of usually 10 mmHg or less, preferably 5 mmHg or less, and more preferably 1 mmHg or less can be used.

[0161] In the manufacture of color filters based on the inkjet method, the liquid (ink) containing the colorant ejected from the nozzle is several pL to tens of pL, which is very fine, so there is a tendency for the solvent to evaporate and the ink to concentrate / dry before landing on the periphery of the nozzle or in the pixel storage body. In order to avoid this, the (B) solvent preferably contains a solvent with a high boiling point, specifically, preferably contains a solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more. It is more preferred to contain a solvent with a boiling point of 200°C or more, and it is particularly preferred to contain a solvent with a boiling point of 220°C or more. When a solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more is used in combination, the content ratio of the solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more in the (B) solvent is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and most preferably 90% by mass or more. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to easily exert the effect of preventing the solvent from evaporating from the droplets.

[0162] Examples of the solvent having a boiling point of 180° C. or higher include diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, 1,3-butanediol diacetate, 1,6-hexanol diacetate, and glycerol triacetate among the various solvents described above.

[0163] In order to adjust the viscosity of the colorant-containing liquid or the colored resin composition and the solubility of the solid component, it is also effective to contain a part of a solvent having a boiling point lower than 180°C. Such a solvent is preferably a solvent having low viscosity, high solubility, and low surface tension, such as ethers, esters, and ketones. Among them, cyclohexanone, dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether, and cyclohexanol acetate are preferred.

[0164] On the other hand, if the solvent contains alcohols, the discharge stability in the inkjet method may be deteriorated. When alcohols are used in combination, the content of alcohols in the (B) solvent is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 5% by mass or less.

[0165] (B) The proportion of the solvent in the colorant-containing liquid of the present invention is not particularly limited, and its upper limit is preferably 99% by mass or less, more preferably 95% by mass or less, and further preferably 90% by mass or less. By setting it below the above-mentioned upper limit, there is a tendency to easily form a coating film. On the other hand, considering the viscosity suitable for coating, the lower limit of the solvent content is preferably 60% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and further preferably 75% by mass or more. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the proportion of the solvent in the colored resin composition is preferably 60 to 99% by mass, more preferably 70 to 95% by mass, and further preferably 75 to 90% by mass.

[0166] [1-3] Compound represented by formula (3), benzoquinone compound

[0167] The colorant-containing liquid of the present invention contains a compound represented by the following general formula (3) and / or a benzoquinone-based compound, and preferably contains a compound represented by the following general formula (3).

[0168]

[0169] (In formula (3), R a , R b , R c , R d and R f Each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R e represents a hydrogen atom or an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.

[0170] Since the phthalocyanine compound (1) has a fluorine atom with a very large electronegativity or a group represented by the formula (2) as an electron-donating group, it is considered that the polarity of the molecule is large and the affinity with the compound represented by the formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is high. In addition, the phthalocyanine compound molecule is generally highly planar. Among them, since the phthalocyanine compound (1) has a fluorine atom with a very small atomic radius or a group represented by the formula (2) with high planarity, it is considered that the steric hindrance of the molecule is small and the affinity with the compound represented by the formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is high. Therefore, it is considered that the colorant-containing liquid of the present invention contains the compound represented by the formula (3) and / or the benzoquinone compound, so that the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the compound represented by the formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound are present in close proximity in the colorant-containing liquid. Therefore, even when a colorant-containing liquid and a (D) photopolymerization initiator are mixed in order to prepare a colored resin composition, the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the (D) photopolymerization initiator are brought into proximity and interact with each other, thereby being able to suppress a decrease in the polymerization ability and film curing ability of the (D) photopolymerization initiator.

[0171] Examples of the compound represented by formula (3) include hydroquinones such as methylhydroquinone (MHQ), phenols such as 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ) and butylhydroxytoluene (BHT), and hindered phenols such as pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate].

[0172] As a benzoquinone type compound, 1, 4-benzoquinone is mentioned, for example.

[0173] Among the compounds represented by formula (3) and benzoquinone compounds, from the viewpoint of affinity with the phthalocyanine compound (1), specifically, the polarity of the molecule, and the steric hindrance of the molecule, methylhydroquinone (MHQ), 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate] are preferred, and methylhydroquinone (MHQ) and 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ) are particularly preferred.

[0175] The total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is preferably 0.80% by mass or less, more preferably 0.50% by mass or less, further preferably 0.30% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 0.10% by mass or less relative to the total solid content of the liquid containing the colorant. In addition, it is preferably 0.001% by mass or more, more preferably 0.005% by mass or more, further preferably 0.008% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 0.01% by mass or more. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to suppress the interaction between the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the photopolymerization initiator. In addition, by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to have high curability and to be able to form a pattern with good linearity. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is preferably 0.001 to 0.80 mass %, more preferably 0.005 to 0.50 mass %, further preferably 0.008 to 0.10 mass %, particularly preferably 0.01 to 0.10 mass % based on the total solid content of the colorant-containing liquid.

[0176] The total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is 0.05 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less relative to 100 parts by mass of the phthalocyanine compound (1). By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to suppress the interaction between the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the photopolymerization initiator. In addition, by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to have high curability and to be able to form a pattern with good linearity.

[0177] The total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is preferably 0.08 parts by mass or more, and more preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more, relative to 100 parts by mass of the phthalocyanine compound (1). In addition, it is preferably 5 parts by mass or less, more preferably 3 parts by mass or less, and further preferably 1 part by mass or less. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is preferably 0.05 to 5 parts by mass, more preferably 0.08 to 3 parts by mass, and further preferably 0.1 to 1 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the phthalocyanine compound (1).

[0178] Here, "the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound" does not presuppose that both the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound are contained, and includes a form in which only one of the compound represented by formula (3) or the benzoquinone-based compound is contained.

[0179] [1-4] (E) Dispersant

[0180] The colorant-containing liquid of the present invention may contain (E) a dispersant. When a pigment is contained as the (A) colorant, it is preferred to contain (E) a dispersant in the colorant-containing liquid for the purpose of stably dispersing the pigment. Among dispersants, it is preferred to use a polymer dispersant because it has excellent dispersion stability over time.

[0253] The structure represented by formula (V) is preferably a structure represented by the following formula (Va), (Vb), or (Vc).

[0254] By introducing these structures into the alkali-soluble resin, when the colored resin composition of the present invention is used for forming a color filter, the heat resistance of the colored resin composition tends to be improved, and the intensity of pixels formed using the colored resin composition tends to be increased.

[0255] The mono(meth)acrylate having a structure represented by formula (V) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0256]

[0262] Among these other radical polymerizable monomers, styrene, benzyl (meth)acrylate, and monomaleimide are preferred from the viewpoint of imparting excellent heat resistance and strength to the colored resin composition.

[0263] When the copolymer of epoxy group-containing (meth)acrylate and other radical polymerizable monomers contains any repeating unit derived from styrene, benzyl (meth)acrylate or monomaleimide, the total content of the repeating unit derived from styrene, the repeating unit derived from benzyl (meth)acrylate and the repeating unit derived from monomaleimide in the repeating units derived from other radical polymerizable monomers is preferably 1 to 70 mol%, more preferably 3 to 50 mol%.

[0264] The copolymerization reaction of the epoxy group-containing (meth)acrylate and other radical polymerizable monomers can be carried out by a known solution polymerization method. The solvent used is not particularly limited as long as it is inactive to radical polymerization, and a commonly used organic solvent can be used.

[0265] Examples of the solvent used in the solution polymerization method include ethylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates such as ethyl acetate, isopropyl acetate, cellosolve acetate, and butyl cellosolve acetate; diethylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates such as diethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, carbitol acetate, and butyl carbitol acetate; propylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates; acetates such as dipropylene glycol monoalkyl ether acetates; ethylene glycol dialkyl ethers; methyl carbitol, ethyl carbitol, and butyl carbitol; Diethylene glycol dialkyl ethers; triethylene glycol dialkyl ethers; propylene glycol dialkyl ethers; dipropylene glycol dialkyl ethers; ethers such as 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydrofuran; ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, and cyclohexanone; hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, octane, and decane; petroleum solvents such as petroleum ether, naphtha, hydrogenated naphtha, and solvent naphtha; lactic acid esters such as methyl lactate, ethyl lactate, and butyl lactate; dimethylformamide and N-methylpyrrolidone.

[0266] The amount of the solvent used in the solution polymerization method is usually 30 to 1000 parts by mass, preferably 50 to 800 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the obtained copolymer. When the amount of the solvent used is within the above range, the molecular weight of the copolymer tends to be easily controlled.

[0267] The radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction is not particularly limited as long as it can initiate radical polymerization, and commonly used organic peroxide catalysts and azo compound catalysts can be used. As the organic peroxide catalyst, known substances classified as ketone peroxides, peroxyketals, hydroperoxides, diallyl peroxides, diacyl peroxides, peroxyesters, and peroxydicarbonates can be cited.

[0268] Examples of the radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction include benzoyl peroxide, dicumyl peroxide, diisopropyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, tert-butyl peroxybenzoate, tert-hexyl peroxybenzoate, tert-butyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, tert-hexyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxy)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(tert-butylperoxy)hexane, 3,3-isopropyl hydroperoxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, diisopropyl peroxide, diisopropyl hydroperoxide, acetyl peroxide, bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl)peroxydicarbonate, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, isobutyl peroxide, 3,3,5-trimethylhexanoyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxide)3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, 1,1-bis(tert-hexylperoxide)3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane.

[0270] Among these, one or more radical polymerization initiators having an appropriate half-life may be used depending on the polymerization temperature.

[0271] The amount of the radical polymerization initiator used is usually 0.5 to 20 parts by mass, preferably 1 to 10 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the total of the monomers used in the copolymerization reaction.

[0272] The copolymerization reaction can be carried out by dissolving the monomers and the radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction in a solvent and heating the mixture while stirring, or by dropping the monomers to which the radical polymerization initiator is added into the heated and stirred solvent, or by adding the radical polymerization initiator to the solvent and dropping the monomers while heating the mixture. The reaction conditions can be set according to the target molecular weight.

[0273] In the present invention, as a copolymer of epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and other free radical polymerizable monomers, it is preferred that the copolymer contains 5 to 90 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 10 to 95 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers in all repeating units of the copolymer; it is further preferred that the copolymer contains 20 to 80 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 80 to 20 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers; it is particularly preferred that the copolymer contains 30 to 70 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 70 to 30 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers.

[0274] By setting the content ratio of the repeating unit derived from the epoxy group-containing (meth)acrylate to be equal to or more than the above lower limit, there is a tendency that the addition amount of the unsaturated monobasic acid or polybasic acid anhydride described later becomes sufficient.

[0275] When the content ratio of repeating units derived from other radical polymerizable monomers is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, heat resistance and strength tend to be sufficient.

[0276] Regarding the resin (C-1), the epoxy group of a copolymer of epoxy group-containing (meth)acrylate and other radical polymerizable monomers is reacted with an unsaturated monobasic acid (polymerizable component) and a polybasic acid anhydride (alkali-soluble component).

[0277] Examples of unsaturated monobasic acids to which epoxy groups are added include: (meth)acrylic acid; crotonic acid; o-, m-, and p-vinylbenzoic acid; and monocarboxylic acids such as (meth)acrylic acid in which the α-position is substituted with a haloalkyl group, an alkoxy group, a halogen atom, a nitro group, or a cyano group. Among them, (meth)acrylic acid is preferred. These unsaturated monobasic acids may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0278] By adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to an epoxy group, polymerizability can be imparted to the resin (C-1).

[0279] The unsaturated monobasic acid is usually added in an amount of 10 to 100 mol %, preferably 30 to 100 mol %, more preferably 50 to 100 mol %, based on 100 mol % of all epoxy groups in the copolymer of epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and other radical polymerizable monomers.

[0280] By setting it to more than the said lower limit, there exists a tendency for the temporal stability of a colored resin composition to become favorable.

[0281] As a method for adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to the epoxy group of the copolymer, a known method can be adopted.

[0282] Furthermore, as the polybasic acid anhydride to be added to the hydroxyl group generated when the unsaturated monobasic acid is added to the epoxy group of the copolymer, a known polybasic acid anhydride can be used.

[0283] Examples of the polyacid anhydride include maleic anhydride, succinic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, hexahydrophthalic anhydride, chlorendic anhydride and other dibasic acid anhydrides; and anhydrides of tribasic or higher acids such as trimellitic anhydride, pyromellitic anhydride, benzophenone tetracarboxylic anhydride, and biphenyl tetracarboxylic anhydride. Among them, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and succinic anhydride are preferred. These polyacid anhydrides may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0284] Alkali solubility can be imparted to the resin (C-1) by adding a polybasic acid anhydride to a hydroxyl group generated when an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy group of a copolymer.

[0285] When all hydroxyl groups generated by addition of the epoxy groups possessed by the copolymer and the unsaturated monobasic acid are set to 100 mol%, the polyacid anhydride is usually added at 10 to 100 mol%, preferably 20 to 90 mol%, and more preferably 30 to 80 mol%. By setting it below the upper limit, there is a tendency that the residual film rate during development becomes good, and by setting it above the lower limit, there is a tendency that the solubility becomes sufficient.

[0286] As a method for adding a polybasic acid anhydride to a hydroxyl group generated by adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to an epoxy group possessed by the copolymer, a known method can be adopted.

[0287] In order to improve photosensitivity, after adding the polybasic acid anhydride, a part of the generated carboxyl groups may be added with glycidyl (meth)acrylate or a glycidyl ether compound having a polymerizable unsaturated group.

[0288] In order to improve the developability, a part of the generated carboxyl groups may be added with a glycidyl ether compound having no polymerizable unsaturated group.

[0289] These may be added alone or in combination of two or more.

[0290] Examples of the glycidyl ether compound having no polymerizable unsaturated group include glycidyl ether compounds having a phenyl group or an alkyl group.

By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved, and by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to increase the brightness by reducing visible light absorption.

For example, in the colored resin composition, the content ratio of the (D) photopolymerization initiator is preferably 0.5-10% by mass, more preferably 0.8-9% by mass, further preferably 1.0-8% by mass, and particularly preferably 1.2-7% by mass, relative to the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0430] [2-3] Other solid ingredients

[0431] The colored resin composition of the present invention may further contain solid components other than the above components as needed.

[0432] Examples of such components include photopolymerizable monomers and surfactants.

[0433] [2-3-1] Photopolymerizable monomer

[0434] The photopolymerizable monomer is not particularly limited as long as it is a polymerizable low molecular compound, and is preferably an addition-polymerizable compound having at least one olefinic double bond (hereinafter referred to as an "olefinic compound"). An olefinic compound refers to a compound having an olefinic double bond that undergoes addition polymerization and curing by the action of a photopolymerization initiator when the colored resin composition of the present invention is irradiated with active light. It should be noted that the monomer in the present invention refers to a concept opposite to the so-called high molecular substance, and refers to the concept of dimers, trimers, and oligomers in addition to monomers in a narrow sense.

[0435] In the present invention, it is particularly desirable to use a multifunctional olefinic monomer having two or more olefinic double bonds in one molecule. The number of olefinic double bonds possessed by the multifunctional olefinic monomer is not particularly limited, and is generally more than 2, preferably more than 4, more preferably more than 5, and preferably less than 8, more preferably less than 7. The above upper and lower limits may be combined arbitrarily. For example, it may be 2 to 8, 4 to 8, or 5 to 7. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to become highly sensitive, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to improve solubility in a solvent.

[0436] Examples of the olefinic compound include unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters thereof with monohydroxy compounds, esters of aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds with unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters of aromatic polyhydroxy compounds with unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters obtained by esterification reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acids and polyhydroxy compounds such as the aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds and aromatic polyhydroxy compounds, and olefinic compounds having a carbamate skeleton obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compound.

[0437] Examples of the esters of aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds and unsaturated carboxylic acids include acrylates such as ethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolethane triacrylate, pentaerythritol diacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, and glycerol acrylate. In addition, examples include methacrylates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety of these acrylic esters with a methacrylic acid moiety, itaconates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with an itaconic acid moiety, crotonates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with a crotonic acid moiety, or maleates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with a maleic acid moiety.

[0438] Examples of the esters of an aromatic polyhydroxy compound and an unsaturated carboxylic acid include hydroquinone diacrylate, hydroquinone dimethacrylate, resorcinol diacrylate, resorcinol dimethacrylate, and pyrogallol triacrylate.

[0439] The ester obtained by the esterification reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acid and polycarboxylic acid with polyhydroxy compound is not necessarily a single substance, but may be a mixture. Examples thereof include condensates of acrylic acid, phthalic acid and ethylene glycol; condensates of acrylic acid, maleic acid and diethylene glycol; condensates of methacrylic acid, terephthalic acid and pentaerythritol; and condensates of acrylic acid, adipic acid, butanediol and glycerol.

[0440] Examples of the olefinic compound having a carbamate skeleton obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compound include aliphatic diisocyanates such as hexamethylene diisocyanate and trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate; alicyclic diisocyanates such as cyclohexane diisocyanate and isophorone diisocyanate; reaction products of aromatic diisocyanates such as toluene diisocyanate and diphenylmethane diisocyanate with (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compounds such as 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 3-hydroxy(1,1,1-triacryloyloxymethyl)propane and 3-hydroxy(1,1,1-trimethacryloyloxymethyl)propane.

[0441] Examples of the olefinic compound used in the present invention include acrylamides such as ethylenebisacrylamide; allyl esters such as diallyl phthalate; and vinyl-containing compounds such as divinyl phthalate.

[0442] The olefinic compound may also be a monomer having an acid value. The monomer having an acid value is an ester of an aliphatic polyhydroxy compound and an unsaturated carboxylic acid, preferably a polyfunctional monomer having an acid group by reacting the unreacted hydroxyl group of the aliphatic polyhydroxy compound with a non-aromatic carboxylic anhydride, and particularly preferably the aliphatic polyhydroxy compound in the ester is pentaerythritol and / or dipentaerythritol.

[0443] These monomers can be used alone, but since it is difficult to use a single compound in the manufacture, two or more kinds can also be used in combination. In addition, as required, a polyfunctional monomer without an acid group and a polyfunctional monomer with an acid group can also be used in combination as a monomer.

[0444] The preferred acid value of the polyfunctional monomer having an acid group is 0.1 to 40 mgKOH / g, and particularly preferably 5 to 30 mgKOH / g. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to improve the developing dissolution characteristics, and by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to improve the manufacturing and handling, and to improve the curing properties such as the photopolymerization performance and the surface smoothness of the pixel. Therefore, when two or more polyfunctional monomers having different acid groups are used in combination, or when a polyfunctional monomer having no acid group is used in combination, it is preferred to adjust the acid groups of the overall polyfunctional monomers so that they fall within the above range.

[0445] In the present invention, a more preferred polyfunctional monomer having an acid group is a mixture of dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, and dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate succinate, which is commercially available as TO1382 manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd. and is mainly composed of dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, and dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate. This polyfunctional monomer may also be used in combination with other polyfunctional monomers. In addition, the compounds described in paragraphs 0056 and 0057 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2013-140346 may also be used.

[0446] From the viewpoint of improving the chemical resistance of the pixel and the linearity of the edge of the pixel, the polymerizable monomer described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-195971 is preferably used. From the viewpoint of achieving both the sensitivity of the coating film and the shortening of the development time, the polymerizable monomer described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-195974 is preferably used.

[0447] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a photopolymerizable monomer, the content ratio of the photopolymerizable monomer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 5% by mass or more, more preferably 8% by mass or more, further preferably 10% by mass or more, particularly preferably 12% by mass or more, relative to the total solid content of the colored resin composition, and preferably 60% by mass or less, more preferably 50% by mass or less, further preferably 45% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 40% by mass or less. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to ensure the flatness of the coating film surface. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, it can be 5 to 60% by mass, 8 to 50% by mass, 10 to 45% by mass, or 12 to 40% by mass.

[0448] [2-3-2] Surfactants

[0449] As the surfactant, various surfactants such as anionic, cationic, nonionic, and amphoteric surfactants can be used. However, nonionic surfactants are preferably used because they are less likely to adversely affect various properties.

[0450] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a surfactant, the content ratio of the surfactant is not particularly limited, and is generally 0.001% by mass or more, preferably 0.01% by mass or more, more preferably 0.05% by mass or more, and further preferably 0.1% by mass or more relative to the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0508] Among these, from the viewpoint of heat resistance, a violet dioxazine pigment is preferred. As the dioxazine pigment, for example, CI Pigment Violet 19 and 23 are preferably mentioned, and CI Pigment Violet 23 is more preferred.

[0509] The average primary particle size of the pigment is preferably 0.2 μm or less, more preferably 0.1 μm or less, and even more preferably 0.04 μm or less. When the pigment is finely divided, a method such as the above-mentioned solvent salt grinding can be suitably used.

[0510] The content ratio of the coloring agent (A) in the colored resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited. In the total solid content of the colored resin composition, it is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 5% by mass or more, further preferably 10% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 15% by mass or more. In addition, it is preferably 80% by mass or less, more preferably 70% by mass or less, further preferably 60% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 50% by mass or less. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to reproduce a wide hue, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to ensure patterning characteristics and stability over time. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the content ratio of the coloring agent (A) in the colored resin composition is preferably 1 to 80% by mass, more preferably 5 to 70% by mass, further preferably 10 to 60% by mass, and further preferably 15 to 50% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0511] The content ratio of the phthalocyanine compound (1) in the colored resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, and is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 3% by mass or more, further preferably 5% by mass or more, further preferably 10% by mass or more, particularly preferably 15% by mass or more, and preferably 90% by mass or less, more preferably 80% by mass or less, further preferably 70% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 60% by mass or less. By setting it to be above the above lower limit, there is a tendency to improve the brightness, and by setting it to be below the above upper limit, there is a tendency to ensure patterning characteristics and stability over time. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the content ratio of the phthalocyanine compound (1) in the colored resin composition is preferably 1 to 90% by mass, more preferably 3 to 80% by mass, further preferably 5 to 80% by mass, further preferably 10 to 70% by mass, and further preferably 15 to 60% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0512] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains other colorants, the content ratio is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1% by mass or more, more preferably 3% by mass or more, more preferably 5% by mass or more, more preferably 7% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 10% by mass or more, and preferably 30% by mass or less, more preferably 25% by mass or less, more preferably 20% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 15% by mass or less, in the total solid content of the colored resin composition. By setting it to the above lower limit or more, there is a tendency to be able to reproduce a wide hue, and by setting it to the above upper limit or less, there is a tendency to be able to ensure stability over time.

[0513] The above upper and lower limits may be combined arbitrarily. For example, the content ratio of other colorants in the colored resin composition is preferably 1 to 30% by mass, more preferably 3 to 30% by mass, further preferably 5 to 25% by mass, further preferably 7 to 20% by mass, and particularly preferably 10 to 15% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0522] Ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl amyl ketone, methyl isopropyl ketone, methyl isoamyl ketone, diisopropyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclohexanone, ethyl amyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, methyl hexyl ketone, methyl nonyl ketone, and methoxymethyl amyl ketone;

[0523] Monohydric or polyhydric alcohols such as ethanol, propanol, butanol, hexanol, cyclohexanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, triethylene glycol, methoxymethylpentanol, glycerol, and benzyl alcohol;

[0525] Alicyclic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane, methylcyclohexane, methylcyclohexene, and bicyclohexane;

[0526] Aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and cumene;

[0527] Chain or cyclic esters such as amyl formate, ethyl formate, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, propyl acetate, amyl acetate, methyl isobutyrate, ethylene glycol acetate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, butyl butyrate, isobutyl butyrate, methyl isobutyrate, ethyl octanoate, butyl stearate, ethyl benzoate, methyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, methyl 3-methoxypropionate, ethyl 3-methoxypropionate, propyl 3-methoxypropionate, butyl 3-methoxypropionate, and γ-butyrolactone;

[0529] Halogenated hydrocarbons such as butyl chloride and amyl chloride;

[0530] Ether ketones such as methoxymethylpentyl ketone;

[0532] Examples of commercially available solvents that meet the above requirements include mineral spirits, VALSOL#2, APCO#18solvent, Apco thinner, Socal solvent No.1 and No.2, SOLVESSO#150, SHELL TS28solvent, carbitol, ethyl carbitol, butyl carbitol, methyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve acetate, methyl cellosolve acetate, and diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (all trade names). These solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0533] When forming color filter pixels by photolithography, it is preferred to select a solvent having a boiling point in the range of 100 to 200°C (under a pressure of 1013.25 [hPa]. Hereinafter, the same shall apply to boiling points.) More preferably, a solvent having a boiling point of 120 to 170°C is selected.

[0534] Among the above solvents, glycol alkyl ether acetates are preferred because they have a good balance between coating properties and surface tension and have high solubility of the components in the composition.

[0535] In addition, glycol alkyl ether acetates can be used alone or in combination with other solvents. As a solvent used in combination, glycol monoalkyl ethers are particularly preferred. Among them, propylene glycol monomethyl ether is preferred, especially from the viewpoint of the solubility of the constituent components in the composition. It should be noted that glycol monoalkyl ethers have high polarity. If the amount added is too much, there is a tendency that the pigment is easy to aggregate, the viscosity of the colored resin composition obtained thereafter increases, and the storage stability tends to decrease. Therefore, the proportion of glycol monoalkyl ethers in the (B) solvent is preferably 5% to 30% by mass, and more preferably 5% to 20% by mass.

[0536] As another embodiment, a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher may be used in combination.

[0537] By using a solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more in combination, the colored resin composition becomes difficult to dry, but there is an effect that the mutual relationship of the constituent components in the liquid containing the colorant is not easily destroyed due to rapid drying. When a solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more is used in combination, the content ratio of the solvent having a boiling point of 150°C or more in the solvent (B) is preferably 3% to 50% by mass, more preferably 5% to 40% by mass, and particularly preferably 5% to 30% by mass. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to avoid, for example, the precipitation / solidification of the coloring material component at the front end of the slit nozzle to cause foreign matter defects. In addition, by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to easily avoid the drying speed of the composition being slowed down, causing problems such as poor rhythm of the reduced pressure drying process and pin marks of pre-baking.

[0538] The solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher may be a glycol alkyl ether acetate or a glycol alkyl ether. In this case, it is not necessary to separately contain a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher.

[0539] Preferred examples of the solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or higher include diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, 1,3-butanediol diacetate, 1,6-hexanol diacetate, and glycerol triacetate.

[0540] When forming pixels of a color filter by an inkjet method, a solvent having a boiling point of generally 130° C. to 300° C., preferably 150° C. to 280° C. is suitable. When the boiling point is set to be equal to or higher than the lower limit, the uniformity of the obtained coating film tends to be improved, and when the boiling point is set to be equal to or lower than the upper limit, the residual solvent during firing tends to be easily reduced.

[0541] From the viewpoint of uniformity of the obtained coating film, a solvent having a vapor pressure of usually 10 mmHg or less, preferably 5 mmHg or less, and more preferably 1 mmHg or less can be used.

[0542] In the manufacture of color filters based on the inkjet method, the ink ejected from the nozzle is several pL to tens of pL, which is very fine, so there is a tendency for the solvent to evaporate and the ink to concentrate / dry before landing on the periphery of the nozzle or in the pixel storage body. In order to avoid this, the (B) solvent preferably contains a solvent with a high boiling point, specifically, preferably contains a solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more. It is more preferred to contain a solvent with a boiling point of 200°C or more, and it is particularly preferred to contain a solvent with a boiling point of 220°C or more. When a solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more is used in combination, the content ratio of the solvent with a boiling point of 180°C or more in the (B) solvent is preferably 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and most preferably 90% by mass or more. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to easily exert the effect of preventing the solvent from evaporating from the droplets.

[0543] Examples of the solvent having a boiling point of 180° C. or higher include diethylene glycol mono-n-butyl ether acetate, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, 1,3-butanediol diacetate, 1,6-hexanol diacetate, and glycerol triacetate among the various solvents described above.

[0544] In order to adjust the viscosity of the colored resin composition and the solubility of the solid content, it is also effective to contain a portion of a solvent having a boiling point lower than 180°C. Such a solvent is preferably a solvent having low viscosity, high solubility, and low surface tension, such as ethers, esters, and ketones.

[0577] The amount of the solvent used in the solution polymerization method is usually 30 to 1000 parts by mass, preferably 50 to 800 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the obtained copolymer. When the amount of the solvent used is within the above range, the molecular weight of the copolymer tends to be easily controlled.

[0578] The radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction is not particularly limited as long as it can initiate radical polymerization, and commonly used organic peroxide catalysts and azo compound catalysts can be used. As the organic peroxide catalyst, known substances classified as ketone peroxides, peroxyketals, hydroperoxides, diallyl peroxides, diacyl peroxides, peroxyesters, and peroxydicarbonates can be cited.

[0579] Examples of the radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction include benzoyl peroxide, dicumyl peroxide, diisopropyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, tert-butyl peroxybenzoate, tert-hexyl peroxybenzoate, tert-butyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, tert-hexyl peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxy)-3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(tert-butylperoxy)hexane, 3,3-isopropyl hydroperoxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, diisopropyl peroxide, diisopropyl hydroperoxide, acetyl peroxide, bis(4-tert-butylcyclohexyl)peroxydicarbonate, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, isobutyl peroxide, 3,3,5-trimethylhexanoyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, 1,1-bis(tert-butylperoxide)3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane, 1,1-bis(tert-hexylperoxide)3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane.

[0583] The copolymerization reaction can be carried out by dissolving the monomers and the radical polymerization initiator used in the copolymerization reaction in a solvent and heating the mixture while stirring, or by dropping the monomers to which the radical polymerization initiator is added into the heated and stirred solvent, or by adding the radical polymerization initiator to the solvent and dropping the monomers while heating the mixture. The reaction conditions can be set according to the target molecular weight.

[0584] In the present invention, as a copolymer of epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and other free radical polymerizable monomers, it is preferred that the copolymer contains 5 to 90 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 10 to 95 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers in all repeating units of the copolymer; it is further preferred that the copolymer contains 20 to 80 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 80 to 20 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers; it is particularly preferred that the copolymer contains 30 to 70 mol% of repeating units derived from epoxy-containing (meth)acrylate and 70 to 30 mol% of repeating units derived from other free radical polymerizable monomers.

[0585] By setting the content ratio of the repeating unit derived from the epoxy group-containing (meth)acrylate to be equal to or more than the above lower limit, there is a tendency that the addition amount of the unsaturated monobasic acid or polybasic acid anhydride described later becomes sufficient.

[0586] When the content ratio of repeating units derived from other radical polymerizable monomers is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, heat resistance and strength tend to be sufficient.

[0587] Regarding the resin (C-1), the epoxy group of a copolymer of a (meth)acrylate containing an epoxy resin and other radical polymerizable monomers is reacted with an unsaturated monobasic acid (polymerizable component) and a polybasic acid anhydride (alkali-soluble component).

[0588] Examples of unsaturated monobasic acids added to epoxy groups include (meth)acrylic acid; crotonic acid; o-, m-, and p-vinylbenzoic acid; and monocarboxylic acids such as (meth)acrylic acid in which the α-position is substituted with a haloalkyl group, an alkoxy group, a halogen atom, a nitro group, or a cyano group. Among them, (meth)acrylic acid is preferred. These unsaturated monobasic acids may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0589] By adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to an epoxy group, polymerizability can be imparted to the resin (C-1).

[0590] When all epoxy groups contained in the copolymer of epoxy resin (meth)acrylate and other radical polymerizable monomers are taken as 100 mol%, the unsaturated monobasic acid is usually added at 10 to 100 mol%, preferably 30 to 100 mol%, and more preferably 50 to 100 mol%. By setting it to the above lower limit or more, the temporal stability of the colored resin composition tends to be good.

[0591] As a method for adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to the epoxy group of the copolymer, a known method can be adopted.

[0592] Furthermore, as the polybasic acid anhydride to be added to the hydroxyl group generated when the unsaturated monobasic acid is added to the epoxy group of the copolymer, a known polybasic acid anhydride can be used.

Among them, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride and succinic anhydride are preferred. These polyacid anhydrides may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0594] Alkali solubility can be imparted to the resin (C-1) by adding a polybasic acid anhydride to a hydroxyl group generated when an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy group of a copolymer.

[0595] When all hydroxyl groups generated by addition of the epoxy groups possessed by the copolymer and the unsaturated monobasic acid are set to 100 mol%, the polyacid anhydride is usually added at 10 to 100 mol%, preferably 20 to 90 mol%, and more preferably 30 to 80 mol%. By setting it below the upper limit, there is a tendency that the residual film rate during development becomes good, and by setting it above the lower limit, there is a tendency that the solubility becomes sufficient.

[0596] As a method for adding a polybasic acid anhydride to a hydroxyl group generated by adding an unsaturated monobasic acid to an epoxy group possessed by the copolymer, a known method can be adopted.

[0597] In order to improve photosensitivity, after adding the polybasic acid anhydride, a part of the generated carboxyl groups may be added with glycidyl (meth)acrylate or a glycidyl ether compound having a polymerizable unsaturated group.

[0598] In order to improve the developability, a part of the generated carboxyl groups may be added with a glycidyl ether compound having no polymerizable unsaturated group.

[0599] These may be added alone or in combination of two or more.

[0600] Examples of the glycidyl ether compound having no polymerizable unsaturated group include glycidyl ether compounds having a phenyl group or an alkyl group.

By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for heat resistance and film strength to become good, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency for solubility in a developer to become good.

[0604] As a standard of molecular weight distribution, the ratio of the weight average molecular weight to the number average molecular weight of the resin (C-1) (Mw / Mn) is preferably 2.0 to 5.0.

[0669] (D) The photopolymerization initiator can also be used as a mixture with an accelerator (chain transfer agent) and additives such as a sensitizing dye added as needed (photopolymerization initiation system). The photopolymerization initiation system is a component that has the function of directly absorbing light or undergoing a decomposition reaction or a hydrogen abstraction reaction by being photosensitized, thereby generating polymerization-active free radicals.

[0670] The (D) photopolymerization initiator in the colored resin composition of the present invention preferably contains a photopolymerization initiator (d1) represented by the following general formula (DI) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "photopolymerization initiator (d1)").

Therefore, even if the residual solvent increases and the sensitivity decreases due to the pre-baking temperature being in the low temperature range, the penetration of the developer into the coating film can be suppressed, and the influence of the pre-baking temperature change on the sensitivity can be reduced.

[0731] The above-mentioned other photopolymerization initiators (d2) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0732] These (D) photopolymerization initiators may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0733] In addition to the (D) photopolymerization initiator, a chain transfer agent may be further used. The chain transfer agent is a compound having a function of receiving a generated radical and transferring it to another compound.

[0734] As chain transfer agent, as long as it is a compound with the above-mentioned function, various compounds can be used, for example, mercapto-containing compounds and carbon tetrachloride can be listed. Since there is a tendency that the chain transfer effect is high, mercapto-containing compounds are more preferably used.

[0738] These various substances may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0739] In the colored resin composition of the present invention, the content ratio of the photopolymerization initiator (D) is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.5% by mass or more, more preferably 0.8% by mass or more, further preferably 1.0% by mass or more, particularly preferably 1.2% by mass or more, and preferably 10% by mass or less, more preferably 9% by mass or less, further preferably 8% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 7% by mass or less. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved, and by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to increase the brightness by reducing visible light absorption. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, in the colored resin composition, the content ratio of the photopolymerization initiator (D) is preferably 0.5-10% by mass, more preferably 0.8-9% by mass, further preferably 1.0-8% by mass, and particularly preferably 1.2-7% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0740] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a photopolymerization initiator (d1), the content ratio of the photopolymerization initiator (d1) in the colored resin composition is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.5% by mass or more, more preferably 0.8% by mass or more, further preferably 1.0% by mass or more, particularly preferably 1.2% by mass or more, and preferably 7% by mass or less, more preferably 5% by mass or less, further preferably 4% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 3% by mass or less. By setting it to the above lower limit or more, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved during low-temperature prebaking, and by setting it to the above upper limit or less, there is a tendency to increase the brightness by reducing visible light absorption. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, in the colored resin composition, the content ratio of the photopolymerization initiator (d1) is preferably 0.5-7% by mass, more preferably 0.8-5% by mass, further preferably 1.0-4% by mass, and particularly preferably 1.2-3% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0741] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a chain transfer agent, the content ratio is not particularly limited, and is preferably 0.1% by mass or more, more preferably 0.2% by mass or more, further preferably 0.3% by mass or more, particularly preferably 0.4% by mass or more, and preferably 5% by mass or less, more preferably 3% by mass or less, further preferably 2% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 1% by mass or less. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for solvent resistance to improve, and by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency for storage stability to improve. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, when the colored resin composition contains a chain transfer agent, its content ratio is preferably 0.1 to 5% by mass, more preferably 0.2 to 3% by mass, further preferably 0.3 to 2% by mass, and particularly preferably 0.4 to 1% by mass in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0742] [3-5] Compound represented by formula (3), benzoquinone compound

[0743] The colored resin composition of the present invention contains a compound represented by the following general formula (3) and / or a benzoquinone-based compound.

[0744]

[0745] (In formula (3), R a , R b , R c , R d and R f Each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and R e represents a hydrogen atom or an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms.

[0746] Since the phthalocyanine compound (1) has a fluorine atom with a very large electronegativity, it is considered that the polarity of the molecule is large and the affinity with the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is high. In addition, the phthalocyanine compound molecule is generally highly planar, and in particular, the phthalocyanine compound (1) has a fluorine atom with a very small atomic radius, so the steric hindrance of the molecule is small and the affinity with the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is high. Therefore, it is considered that the colored resin composition of the present invention contains the compound represented by formula (3) and / or the benzoquinone compound, so that the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound are close to each other in the colored resin composition, and it is possible to suppress the decrease in the polymerization ability and film curing ability of the (D) photopolymerization initiator due to the proximity of the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the (D) photopolymerization initiator and the interaction between the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the (D) photopolymerization initiator.

[0747] Examples of the compound represented by formula (3) include hydroquinones such as methylhydroquinone (MHQ), phenols such as 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ) and butylhydroxytoluene (BHT), and hindered phenols such as pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate].

[0748] As a benzoquinone type compound, 1, 4-benzoquinone is mentioned, for example.

[0749] Among the compounds represented by formula (3) and benzoquinone compounds, from the viewpoint of affinity with the phthalocyanine compound (1), specifically, the polarity of the molecule, and the steric hindrance of the molecule, methylhydroquinone (MHQ), 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and pentaerythritol tetrakis[3-[3,5-di(tert-butyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]propionate] are preferred, and methylhydroquinone (MHQ) and 4-methoxyphenol (MEHQ) are particularly preferred.

[0750] The compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0751] The total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is preferably 0.80% by mass or less, more preferably 0.50% by mass or less, further preferably 0.30% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 0.10% by mass or less in the total solid content of the colored resin composition. In addition, it is preferably 0.001% by mass or more, more preferably 0.02% by mass or more, further preferably 0.03% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 0.05% by mass or more. By setting it to be above the above lower limit, there is a tendency for the inhibitory effect on the interaction between the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the photopolymerization initiator to be improved. In addition, by setting it to be below the above upper limit, there is a tendency for the curability to be high and a pattern with good linearity to be formed. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone-based compound is preferably 0.001 to 0.80 mass %, more preferably 0.02 to 0.50 mass %, further preferably 0.03 to 0.10 mass %, particularly preferably 0.05 to 0.10 mass % in the total solid content of the colored resin composition.

[0752] In the colored resin composition of the present invention, the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is preferably 30 parts by mass or less, more preferably 20 parts by mass or less, further preferably 10 parts by mass or less, and particularly preferably 5 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the photopolymerization initiator (D). In addition, it is preferably 0.05 parts by mass or more, more preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more, further preferably 0.2 parts by mass or more, and particularly preferably 0.2 parts by mass or more. By setting it below the above upper limit, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved and the patterning to be improved. In addition, by setting it above the above lower limit, there is a tendency for the time-dependent change of sensitivity to be suppressed. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, relative to 100 parts by mass of the photopolymerization initiator (D), the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound is preferably 0.05 to 30 parts by mass, more preferably 0.1 to 20 parts by mass, further preferably 0.2 to 10 parts by mass, and particularly preferably 0.5 to 5 parts by mass.

[0753] Here, "the total content of the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound" does not presuppose that both the compound represented by formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound are contained, but includes a form containing only one of the compound represented by formula (3) or the benzoquinone compound.

[0754] [3-6] Other solid ingredients

[0755] The colored resin composition of the present invention may further contain solid components other than the above components as needed.

[0756] Examples of such components include photopolymerizable monomers, dispersants, dispersing aids, and surfactants.

[0757] [3-6-1] Photopolymerizable monomer

[0758] The photopolymerizable monomer is not particularly limited as long as it is a polymerizable low molecular compound, and is preferably an addition-polymerizable compound having at least one olefinic double bond (hereinafter referred to as an "olefinic compound"). An olefinic compound refers to a compound having an olefinic double bond that undergoes addition polymerization and curing by the action of a photopolymerization initiator when the colored resin composition of the present invention is irradiated with active light. It should be noted that the monomer in the present invention refers to a concept opposite to the so-called high molecular substance, and refers to the concept of dimers, trimers, and oligomers in addition to monomers in a narrow sense.

[0759] In the present invention, it is particularly desirable to use a multifunctional olefinic monomer having two or more olefinic double bonds in one molecule. The number of olefinic double bonds possessed by the multifunctional olefinic monomer is not particularly limited, and is generally more than 2, preferably more than 4, more preferably more than 5, and preferably less than 8, more preferably less than 7. The above upper and lower limits may be combined arbitrarily. For example, it may be 2 to 8, 4 to 8, or 5 to 7. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to become highly sensitive, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to improve solubility in a solvent.

[0760] Examples of the olefinic compound include unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters thereof with monohydroxy compounds, esters of aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds with unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters of aromatic polyhydroxy compounds with unsaturated carboxylic acids, esters obtained by esterification reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acids and polyhydroxy compounds such as the aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds and aromatic polyhydroxy compounds, and olefinic compounds having a carbamate skeleton obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compound.

[0761] Examples of the esters of aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds and unsaturated carboxylic acids include acrylates such as ethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolethane triacrylate, pentaerythritol diacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, and glycerol acrylate. In addition, examples include methacrylates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety of these acrylic esters with a methacrylic acid moiety, itaconates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with an itaconic acid moiety, crotonates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with a crotonic acid moiety, or maleates obtained by replacing the acrylic acid moiety with a maleic acid moiety.

[0762] Examples of the esters of an aromatic polyhydroxy compound and an unsaturated carboxylic acid include hydroquinone diacrylate, hydroquinone dimethacrylate, resorcinol diacrylate, resorcinol dimethacrylate, and pyrogallol triacrylate.

[0763] The ester obtained by the esterification reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acid and polycarboxylic acid with polyhydroxy compound is not necessarily a single substance, but may be a mixture. Examples thereof include condensates of acrylic acid, phthalic acid and ethylene glycol; condensates of acrylic acid, maleic acid and diethylene glycol; condensates of methacrylic acid, terephthalic acid and pentaerythritol; and condensates of acrylic acid, adipic acid, butanediol and glycerol.

[0764] Examples of the olefinic compound having a carbamate skeleton obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compound include aliphatic diisocyanates such as hexamethylene diisocyanate and trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate; alicyclic diisocyanates such as cyclohexane diisocyanate and isophorone diisocyanate; aromatic diisocyanates such as toluene diisocyanate and diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and the like, and reaction products of (meth)acryloyl group-containing hydroxy compounds such as 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 3-hydroxy(1,1,1-triacryloyloxymethyl)propane and 3-hydroxy(1,1,1-trimethacryloyloxymethyl)propane.

[0765] Examples of the olefinic compound used in the present invention include acrylamides such as ethylenebisacrylamide; allyl esters such as diallyl phthalate; and vinyl-containing compounds such as divinyl phthalate.

[0766] The olefinic compound may also be a monomer having an acid value. The monomer having an acid value is an ester of an aliphatic polyhydroxy compound and an unsaturated carboxylic acid, preferably a polyfunctional monomer having an acid group by reacting the unreacted hydroxyl group of the aliphatic polyhydroxy compound with a non-aromatic carboxylic anhydride, and particularly preferably the aliphatic polyhydroxy compound in the ester is pentaerythritol and / or dipentaerythritol.

[0767] These monomers can be used alone, but since it is difficult to use a single compound in the manufacture, two or more kinds can also be used in combination. In addition, as required, a polyfunctional monomer without an acid group and a polyfunctional monomer with an acid group can also be used in combination as a monomer.

[0768] The preferred acid value of the polyfunctional monomer having an acid group is 0.1 to 40 mgKOH / g, and particularly preferably 5 to 30 mgKOH / g. By setting it to be above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency to improve the developing dissolution characteristics, and by setting it to be below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to improve the manufacturing and handling, and to improve the curing properties such as the photopolymerization performance and the surface smoothness of the pixel. Therefore, when two or more polyfunctional monomers having different acid groups are used in combination, or when a polyfunctional monomer having no acid group is used in combination, it is preferred to adjust the acid groups of the overall polyfunctional monomers so that they fall within the above range.

[0769] In the present invention, a more preferred polyfunctional monomer having an acid group is a mixture of dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, and dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate succinate, which is commercially available as TO1382 manufactured by Toagosei Co., Ltd. and is mainly composed of dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, and dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate. Other polyfunctional monomers of the polyfunctional monomer may also be used in combination. In addition, the compounds described in paragraphs 0056 and 0057 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2013-140346 may also be used.

[0770] From the viewpoint of improving the chemical resistance of the pixel and the linearity of the edge of the pixel, the polymerizable monomer described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-195971 is preferably used. From the viewpoint of achieving both the sensitivity of the coating film and the shortening of the development time, the polymerizable monomer described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-195974 is preferably used.

[0771] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a photopolymerizable monomer, the content ratio of the photopolymerizable monomer is not particularly limited, and is preferably 5% by mass or more, more preferably 8% by mass or more, further preferably 10% by mass or more, and particularly preferably 12% by mass or more in the total solid content of the colored resin composition. In addition, it is preferably 60% by mass or less, more preferably 50% by mass or less, further preferably 45% by mass or less, and particularly preferably 40% by mass or less. By setting it to above the aforementioned lower limit, there is a tendency for the curability of the coating film to be improved, and by setting it to below the aforementioned upper limit, there is a tendency to ensure the flatness of the coating film surface. The above upper and lower limits can be combined arbitrarily. For example, it can be 5 to 60% by mass, it can be 8 to 50% by mass, it can be 10 to 45% by mass, or it can be 12 to 40% by mass.

[0772] [3-6-2] Dispersants and dispersing aids

[0773] When the colored resin composition of the present invention contains a pigment as the (A) colorant, it is preferred to contain a dispersant for the purpose of stably dispersing the pigment.

[0820] [3-7] Preparation of colored resin composition

[0821] The method for preparing the colored resin composition (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a resist) of the present invention will be described.

[0822] When the colorant is dispersed, the colorant, solvent and dispersant are weighed in predetermined amounts, and the colorant is dispersed in the dispersion process to prepare a liquid containing the colorant. In the dispersion process, a paint conditioner, a sand mill, a ball mill, a roller mill, a stone mill, a jet mill, a homogenizer, etc. can also be used. By performing the dispersion process, the colorant is micronized, so that the coating characteristics of the colored resin composition are improved and the transmittance of the pixels of the color filter substrate of the product is improved.

[0823] When the colorant is dispersed, it is preferable to use a dispersing aid, a dispersing resin, or the like in combination as appropriate, as described above.

[0824] When a sand mill is used for dispersion treatment, glass beads or zirconium oxide beads having a diameter of 0.1 to several mm are preferably used. The temperature during dispersion treatment is usually set to be above 0°C, preferably above room temperature, and usually below 100°C, preferably below 80°C. It should be noted that the dispersion time is different depending on the composition of the liquid containing the colorant and the size of the sand mill, so it can be adjusted appropriately.

[0825] The colorant-containing liquid obtained by the above dispersion treatment may be further mixed with a solvent, an alkali-soluble resin, a photopolymerization initiator, and other components as required to prepare a uniform solution to obtain a colored resin composition. It should be noted that fine dust may be mixed in each of the dispersion treatment steps and mixing steps, so it is preferred that the obtained composition be filtered using a filter or the like.

[0826] When the colorant is not dispersed, the colorant, solvent, alkali-soluble resin, photopolymerization initiator, and other components as required may be mixed to form a uniform solution to obtain a colored resin composition. The obtained composition is preferably filtered using a filter or the like.

[0827] The compound represented by the formula (3) and the benzoquinone compound in the present invention are preferably already mixed with the phthalocyanine compound (1) at the time of mixing the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the photopolymerization initiator.

[0828] Specifically, it is preferred that: the compound represented by the above formula (3) and / or the benzoquinone-based compound is added in the step of preparing a colorant-containing liquid containing the phthalocyanine compound (1) (i.e., before adding the (D) photopolymerization initiator); or that the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the compound represented by the above formula (3) and / or the benzoquinone-based compound are added before mixing the phthalocyanine compound (1) and the photopolymerization initiator in the step of preparing a colored resin composition.

[0829] [4]Manufacturing of color filter substrates

[0830] Next, the color filter of the present invention will be described.

[0831] The color filter of the present invention has pixels formed using the above-mentioned colored resin composition.

[0832] [4-1] Transparent substrate (support)

[0833] As the transparent substrate of the color filter, the material thereof is not particularly limited as long as it is transparent and has appropriate strength. As the material, for example, polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, polyolefin resins such as polypropylene and polyethylene, thermoplastic resin films such as polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate, and polysulfone, thermosetting resin films such as epoxy resins, unsaturated polyester resins, and poly(meth)acrylic resins, or various glasses can be cited. Among them, glass or heat-resistant resins are preferred from the viewpoint of heat resistance.

[0834] In order to improve the surface properties such as adhesion, the transparent substrate and the black matrix forming substrate can be subjected to corona discharge treatment, ozone treatment, silane coupling agent, urethane resin and other resin film forming treatments as needed. The thickness of the transparent substrate is usually more than 0.05mm, preferably more than 0.1mm, and is usually set to a range of less than 10mm, preferably less than 7mm. In addition, when the film forming treatment of various resins is carried out, the film thickness is usually more than 0.01μm, preferably more than 0.05μm, and is usually less than 10μm, preferably less than 5μm.

[0835] [4-2] Black Matrix

[0836] By arranging a black matrix on the above-mentioned transparent substrate and then generally forming a red, green, and blue pixel image, the color filter of the present invention can be manufactured. The above-mentioned colored resin composition is preferably made into a green or blue pixel (resist pattern) forming coating liquid in red, green, and blue pixels and used. Using the coating liquid for resist pattern formation, coating, heating and drying, image exposure, development, and heat curing are performed on the resin black matrix forming surface formed on the transparent substrate or on the metal black matrix forming surface formed using a light-shielding metal material such as a chromium compound to form a pixel image.

[0837] The black matrix is ​​formed on a transparent substrate using a light-shielding metal film or a black matrix colored resin composition. As the light-shielding metal material, chromium compounds such as metal chromium, chromium oxide, and chromium nitride, nickel and tungsten alloys, etc. can be used, and these can be stacked in multiple layers.

[0838] These metal light-shielding films are usually formed by a sputtering method. After forming the desired pattern in a film form using a positive photoresist, an etching solution prepared by mixing ammonium cerium nitrate with perchloric acid and / or nitric acid is used for chromium. For other materials, etching is performed using an etching solution corresponding to the material. Finally, the positive photoresist is stripped off with a special stripper, thereby forming a black matrix.

[0839] In this case, a thin film of these metals or metal / metal oxides is first formed on a transparent substrate by evaporation or sputtering. Then, a coating film of a colored resin composition is formed on the thin film, and then the coating film is exposed / developed using a photomask having a repeated pattern such as stripes, mosaics, triangles, etc. to form a resist image. Thereafter, the coating film is subjected to an etching treatment to form a black matrix.

[0840] In the case of using a colored resin composition for a black matrix, a colored resin composition containing a black colorant is used to form a black matrix. For example, a colored resin composition containing a black coloring material such as carbon black, graphite, iron black, aniline black, cyanine black, titanium black, etc., or a black coloring material obtained by mixing red, green, blue, etc. appropriately selected from inorganic or organic pigments and dyes can be used to form a black matrix in the same manner as the following method for forming a red, green, and blue pixel image.

[0841] [4-3] Pixel formation

[0842] After a colored resin composition of one color among red, green and blue is applied to a transparent substrate provided with a black matrix and dried, a photomask is superimposed on the coated film, and a pixel image is formed through the photomask by image exposure, development, and thermal curing or photocuring as required. This operation is performed for each of the three colored resin compositions of red, green and blue, thereby forming a color filter image.

[0843] The coloring resin composition for color filters can be applied by spin coating, wire bar coating, flow coating, die coating, roll coating, spray coating, etc. Among them, die coating is preferred from the comprehensive viewpoints that the amount of coating liquid used is greatly reduced, the influence of mist attached in the case of spin coating is completely eliminated, and the generation of foreign matter can be suppressed.

[0844] When the thickness of the coating film is too large, pattern development becomes difficult, and sometimes the gap adjustment in the liquid crystal unitization process becomes difficult. On the other hand, if it is too small, it is difficult to increase the pigment concentration, and sometimes the desired color cannot be expressed. The thickness of the coating film is measured as the film thickness after drying, usually 0.2 μm or more, preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 0.8 μm or more, and usually 20 μm or less, preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or less. ...
