Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of optical material preparation technology, and in particular to a polymerizable liquid crystal compound, a polymerizable composition, and a phase retardation film. Background Technology
[0002] Optical films are a key component of modern display technology, affecting display brightness, sharpness, and viewing angle distortion. Among them, inverse wavelength dispersion (IRD) films, due to their unique optical properties, are widely used in polarizers of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs) for anti-reflection and viewing angle compensation. IRD generally refers to the relationship between the phase difference and wavelength at a positive viewing angle. It is typically expressed as the phase difference Re(450) at 450 nm and the phase difference Re(550) at 550 nm satisfying the following condition: Re(450) / Re(550) < 1.0.
[0003] Phase retardation films achieving reverse wavelength dispersion currently primarily utilize liquid crystal polymer materials, leveraging the material's birefringence to create a phase difference. Mainstream, these liquid crystal polymers typically use a pre-coating solution containing one or more polymerizable liquid crystal compounds, initiators, and solvents. To achieve a specific alignment of the liquid crystals, a functional alignment layer is required on the substrate. After coating the pre-coating solution onto the substrate containing the alignment layer, a heating and drying process is performed. Once the solvent evaporates, the liquid crystal compounds form a liquid crystal phase with a specific orientation (i.e., "alignment") under certain temperature conditions. Subsequently, a polymerization reaction is initiated by ultraviolet light to fix the liquid crystal alignment, resulting in a well-aligned, anisotropic polymer film with phase retardation optical properties—the phase retardation film.
[0004] Therefore, extensive research has been conducted on polymeric liquid crystal compounds or polymeric compositions containing them capable of forming phase reversal films with reverse wavelength dispersion. However, the disclosed compound structures (such as patent CN119592332B) have small volumes and short lengths of chromophores on their short axes, resulting in high Re(450) / Re(550) values, indicating insufficient reverse wavelength dispersion. Furthermore, these compounds have regular molecular structures, poor solubility, and are prone to crystallization and alignment defects during film formation. Summary of the Invention

The mixtures were thoroughly sonicated at room temperature and allowed to stand for 10 minutes. If the mixture was clear and transparent with no visible insoluble matter, the process was considered complete, and the solubility was determined to be 20% or higher. If there was residual solubility, 5 g of cyclohexanone was added, and the mixture was thoroughly sonicated at room temperature. After standing for 10 minutes, the mixture was again observed to be clear and transparent with no visible insoluble matter. If the mixture was again observed to be clear and transparent with no visible insoluble matter, the process was considered complete, and the solubility was determined to be 10% to 20%. If there was still residual solubility, another 10 g of cyclohexanone was added, and the mixture was thoroughly sonicated at room temperature. After standing for 10 minutes, the mixture was again observed to be clear and transparent with no visible insoluble matter. If the mixture was again observed to be clear and transparent with no visible insoluble matter, the process was considered complete, and the solubility was determined to be 5% to 10%.

Subsequently, the substrate was cooled to room temperature, and the film surface with the composition was irradiated with a mercury lamp under a nitrogen atmosphere with a total energy of 1500 mJ / cm². 2 That is, a phase difference film is obtained, and the phase difference films formed correspond to Examples 19-27 and Comparative Examples 7-9 shown in Table 3.
[0118] Table 2
[0119] For the fabricated retardation film, the phase difference at various wavelengths was measured using an Axoscan polarization meter. The phase difference Re(450) at 450 nm and the phase difference Re(550) at 550 nm were recorded. The Re(450) / Re(550) ratio was calculated and evaluated according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Table 3 below, where a smaller Re(450) / Re(550) ratio indicates better inverse wavelength dispersion.
[0120] In Table 3: A: Re(450) / Re(550) is less than or equal to 0.84; B: Re(450) / Re(550) is greater than 0.84 and less than or equal to 0.87; C: Re(450) / Re(550) is greater than 0.87 and less than or equal to 0.9; D: Re(450) / Re(550) is greater than 0.9.
[0121] III. Orientation Defects The number of alignment defects on the fabricated phase retardation film was visually confirmed using an optical microscope, and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. The results are shown in Table 3 below.
[0122] In Table 3: A: No defects; B: 1 to 10; C: 11 to 100; D: The entire surface has alignment defects (>100).
[0123] IV. Crystallization The fabricated phase retardation films were visually examined using an optical microscope to confirm the crystallization pattern on the screen, and evaluated according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Table 3 below.
[0124] In Table 3: A: No crystallization; B: Localized, minor crystallization; C: Extensive crystallization; D: Dense crystallization across the entire surface.

[0126] The polymerizable liquid crystal compound provided by this invention has significantly improved solubility, and the resulting phase retardation film has excellent reverse wavelength dispersion. At the same time, alignment defects and crystallization problems are significantly improved.
[0127] Specifically, compared to compounds X-1 to X-3 in Comparative Examples 4-6, the solubility of the polymeric liquid crystal compounds provided in Examples 10-18 of this invention is fundamentally improved. For example, under the same test conditions, the polymeric liquid crystal compounds (such as R-1, R-3, R-7, R-8, R-10, R-11) provided in Examples 10, 12, and 15-18 achieved a solubility rating of A (>20%), indicating that they are easily soluble and can form high-concentration, storage-stable coating solutions. In contrast, the solubility of comparative example compounds X-1 and X-2 was only D (<5%). This superior solubility greatly broadens the coating process window, allowing for the preparation of solutions with higher solid content, which helps to obtain more uniform film layers and improve coating quality. This is directly attributed to the fact that the steric substituents introduced into the molecular structure of the compounds in this invention effectively disrupt the regularity of the molecular structure and significantly improve their solubility in organic solvents.
[0128] All the polymerizable liquid crystal compounds provided in this invention (Examples 19-27) achieved the highest rating of A (Re(450) / Re(550) ≤ 0.84) in the reverse wavelength dispersion evaluation after film formation, demonstrating extremely excellent and stable reverse wavelength dispersion characteristics. In contrast, the comparative compound X-1 to X-3 only achieved a rating of C or D in this evaluation, and their optical performance could not meet the requirements of high-end display devices. This is mainly due to the introduction of steric groups at the short axis sites of the compound's molecular structure, thereby achieving ideal reverse wavelength dispersion characteristics.
[0129] Regarding alignment defects, the polymerizable liquid crystal compounds provided by this invention show significant improvement in alignment defects after film formation. Compounds in Examples 19-21 and 24-27 (such as R-1~R-3, R-7, R-8, R-10, R-11, etc.) received a Grade A (no defects) rating, and the rest received a Grade B (very few defects). Comparative example compounds X-1 and X-2, however, exhibited a Grade D (alignment defects occur on the entire surface), and comparative example compound X-3 was a Grade C (numerous defects).
[0130] In the crystallinity test, the polymerizable liquid crystal compounds provided by the present invention also performed excellently after film formation. In particular, the compounds in Examples 19-21 and 24-27 (such as R-1~R-3, R-7, R-8, R-10, R-11, etc.) all obtained Grade A (no crystallization) evaluation. Although some advantages of the polymeric liquid crystal compounds and the phase retardation films formed therefrom shown in Examples 1-9 have been described by way of example only, it is reasonable to expect, based on their structure-property relationships, that other compounds covered by general formula (1) also possess the same or corresponding technical effects.
[0131] This invention provides a highly soluble polymerizable liquid crystal compound for forming a retardation film with excellent reverse wavelength dispersion. By using a polymerizable composition containing the polymerizable liquid crystal compound of this application, the generation of crystallization and alignment defects during the manufacturing process of the retardation film can be suppressed. The inventors have conducted in-depth research and discovered that by introducing V at appropriate positions along the short axis of the polymerizable liquid crystal compound's molecular structure… 1 V 2 V 3 Or, sterically hindered substituents with a U-structure, such as alkyl, alkoxy, or alkoxycarbonyl groups, can lead to excellent reverse wavelength dispersibility in the film-forming properties of the compound. Furthermore, by introducing V-shaped substituents into the molecular structure of polymerizable liquid crystal compounds... 1 V 2 V 3 The steric hindrance substituents in the U-structure disrupt the regularity of the molecular structure, resulting in excellent solubility of the polymeric liquid crystal compound. Phase reversal films fabricated using polymeric compositions containing the above-mentioned polymeric liquid crystal compounds are less prone to crystallization and alignment defects.
[0132] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of the claims of this application.
