Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to nonpolymer compounds and film-forming compositions comprising them. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of optical components such as eyeglass lenses, Fresnel lenses, biconvex lenses, aspherical lenses, optical discs, optical fibers, and optical waveguides, transparent resins made of polymer materials with excellent transparency in the visible light range are widely used.
[0003] In recent years, in the field of electronic devices such as liquid crystal displays, organic electroluminescent (EL) displays, light-emitting diodes, solar cells, and CCD / CMOS image sensors, transparent resins with excellent visible light transmittance are widely used for optical components such as protective films, planarization films, insulating films, anti-reflective films, refractive index control films, microlenses, in-layer lenses, optical waveguides, and film substrates.
[0004] In the application of such optical components, not only transparency but also excellent lightfastness is often required. However, it is known that optical components based on transparent resins using the aforementioned polymer materials deteriorate under ultraviolet light, causing discoloration and other quality degradation, and therefore cannot withstand long-term use.
[0005] To improve the lightfastness of optical components, ultraviolet (UV) absorbers are generally formulated (Patent Documents 1-4). Examples of UV absorbers include benzophenone-based, benzotriazole-based, triazine-based, cyanoacrylate-based, salicylate-based, benzoate-based, oxaloaniline-based, and malonic acid ester-based UV absorbers.
[0006] The aforementioned ultraviolet absorbers are primarily used in the formation of coatings (ultraviolet absorbing films) for protecting optical components, primarily from the viewpoint of improving lightfastness (Patent Documents 5-6). Furthermore, in addition to improving the lightfastness of optical components, for example, by forming an ultraviolet absorbing film containing the aforementioned ultraviolet absorbers on the optical components, ultraviolet shielding and anti-reflective functions can be imparted (Patent Documents 7-10).
[0007] To improve UV absorption, such UV-absorbing films need to be formed thicker; conversely, to reduce their impact on the optical properties of optical components, they need to be formed thinner. To reconcile these contradictory characteristics, a UV absorber is needed that provides sufficient UV absorption even in thin films for practical application.
[0008] Furthermore, from the viewpoint of productivity of the film-forming composition, it is necessary for the ultraviolet absorber to be soluble in a wide variety of organic solvents. In particular, during the manufacturing process of the film-forming composition, when the ultraviolet absorber is mixed with an organic solvent other than the one in which it is dissolved, precipitation sometimes occurs due to the combination of organic solvents. In such cases, problems such as piping blockage in the production equipment may occur.
[0009] Furthermore, in optical components, other functional films (upper layers) are sometimes formed on the ultraviolet-absorbing film. In this case, generally, a composition (varnish) for forming the upper layer is coated on the ultraviolet-absorbing film. If the solvent resistance of the ultraviolet-absorbing film is insufficient, sometimes a portion of it dissolves due to the organic solvent used in the composition for forming the upper layer.
