Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid crystal display technology, and more specifically, to a liquid crystal composition and a liquid crystal display device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of display materials, compared with OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) technology, liquid crystal display (LCD) technology has significant advantages in terms of process, cost, and stability, and currently holds a relatively large advantage in the global display market. Meanwhile, to meet market and consumer demands, LCD technology is constantly undergoing upgrades and innovations, such as the combination with MiniLED and quantum dot technologies, which has resulted in a qualitative improvement in the contrast and image quality of LCD displays.
[0003] In terms of application expansion, the demand for LCDs extends beyond consumer electronics (TVs, mobile phones, etc.) to include industrial, medical, and automotive sectors. When LCDs are used in outdoor digital signage, industrial control, and intelligent transportation, high temperature and humidity environments pose significant challenges to their performance and lifespan. Firstly, these application environments are characterized by large temperature differences and high humidity. For example, the internal temperature of the enclosure can exceed 60°C under direct sunlight, while humidity during the rainy season often reaches over 80%, far exceeding the tolerance range of ordinary LCD screens (typically 0-50°C). This environment accelerates the disordered arrangement of liquid crystal molecules, leading to malfunctions such as blackouts and brightness decay. Secondly, industrial-grade displays used in construction sites, logistics centers, and other similar environments must meet requirements such as high brightness (above 1000 nits), strong protection (IP65 / IP67), and wide operating temperature (-20°C to 60°C). These requirements place higher demands on the high temperature and humidity resistance of LCDs.
[0004] Currently, LCD monitors are developing towards thinner, lighter, lower power consumption, wider viewing angles, higher contrast ratios, and faster response times, with the demand for higher contrast ratios being particularly urgent. Research has found that increasing the transmittance of liquid crystals greatly helps improve the contrast ratio of LCD monitors. Generally, increasing transmittance is achieved by increasing the refractive index of the liquid crystal, thereby increasing the retardation and thus improving transmittance. However, since different wavelengths of light have different transmittances through liquid crystal materials, and the greater the refractive index dispersion of the liquid crystal material, the lower the transmittance, this limits the improvement of liquid crystal transmittance. To further improve the transmittance of liquid crystals, it is necessary to address the problem of significant differences in dispersion of liquid crystals under different wavelengths of light. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a liquid crystal composition and a liquid crystal display device, thereby solving at least one of the aforementioned technical problems.

The liquid crystal display device containing this liquid crystal composition also has advantages such as good reliability after prolonged high-temperature and high-humidity aging, low dispersion under different wavelengths of light, and high transmittance.

[0050] In this invention, the elements contained in the compounds include all their corresponding isotopes, such as compounds in which H, C, N, O, Cl, F, S, Se, etc. have been replaced by their corresponding isotopes, and this is particularly preferred in some embodiments.
[0051] The technical solution of the present invention will be described below with reference to some specific embodiments: Unless otherwise specified, percentages in this instruction manual refer to mass percentages, and temperatures are in degrees Celsius (°C). The specific meanings of other symbols and test conditions are as follows: Cp represents the liquid crystal clearing point (°C), measured by DSC quantitative method; Δn represents optical anisotropy, no is the refractive index of ordinary light, ne is the refractive index of extraordinary light, the test conditions are 25±2℃, Δn(450) is Δn measured at a wavelength of 450nm, Δn(546) is Δn measured at a wavelength of 546nm, Δn(589) is Δn measured at a wavelength of 589nm, Δn(680) is Δn measured at a wavelength of 680nm, and the test is performed using an Abbe refractometer. When the refractive index of the liquid crystal changes little with wavelength, the difference in the refraction angle of light of different wavelengths when passing through the liquid crystal is small, so the dispersion effect is weak. In other words, the more gradual the change of refractive index with wavelength, the less obvious the dispersion phenomenon, and the higher the transmittance of the liquid crystal will be.
[0052] Δε represents dielectric anisotropy, Δε = ε ∥ -ε ⊥ , where ε ∥ ε is the dielectric constant parallel to the molecular axis. ⊥ The dielectric constant is perpendicular to the molecular axis. The test conditions are 25±0.5℃, 20-micron vertical / parallel cell, INSTEC: ALCT-IR1 test. K 11 K is the elastic constant of the development. 33 The bending elastic constant was determined under the following test conditions: 25℃, INSTEC:ALCT-IR1, and 20-micron vertical / parallel box. γ1 represents rotational viscosity (mPa·s), and the test conditions are 25±0.5℃, 20-micron vertical / parallel box, INSTEC: ALCT-IR1 test; VHR represents voltage hold-up rate (%). The test conditions were 60±2℃, voltage ±1V, pulse width 10ms, and voltage hold-up time 166.7ms. The test equipment was a TOYO Model 6254 LCD performance comprehensive tester. High temperature and high humidity aging test conditions: The ability to resist high temperature and high humidity aging is examined by testing the change in VHR data of the liquid crystal composition under high temperature of 85°C and high humidity of 85%. The test box filled with liquid crystal composition is placed in a high temperature and high humidity oven at 85°C and 85% relative humidity for 500 hours, and the VHR is tested at the initial stage and after aging.
[0053] In this invention, the VHR is evaluated after high temperature and high humidity aging as follows: After aging, 0 < ΔVHR < 1 indicates a slight improvement, 1 ≤ ΔVHR ≤ 2 indicates a more significant improvement, and ΔVHR > 2 indicates a significant improvement. Here, ΔVHR is the difference between the VHR of the example after high temperature and high humidity and the VHR of the comparative example after high temperature and high humidity.
[0054] The preparation method of the liquid crystal composition is as follows: Weigh each liquid crystal monomer according to a certain ratio and put it into a stainless steel beaker. Place the stainless steel beaker containing each liquid crystal monomer on a magnetic stirrer and heat it to melt. After most of the liquid crystal monomer in the stainless steel beaker has melted, add a magnetic rotor to the stainless steel beaker and stir the mixture evenly. After cooling to room temperature, the liquid crystal composition is obtained.
