DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] <Azo dye> The azo dye of the present invention has a specific crystal structure. The crystal structure is identified by powder X-ray diffraction. Specifically, the azo dye of the present invention has a diffraction pattern of the following in powder X-ray diffraction using CuKα radiation of a mixture of 50 parts of the azo dye and 50 parts of aluminum oxide: There are peaks in the diffraction angle range (2θ±0.2°) = 5° to 25°, The maximum peak is at 9.8°~16.0°, and the maximum peak is at 5°~25°. At least one peak exists between 11.0° and 11.8°. Between the maximum peak intensity at 9.8°-16.0° (I1) and the maximum peak intensity at 11.0°-11.8° (I2), I2 / I1≧0.05 and Between the peak intensity (I3) at the diffraction angle (2θ±0.2°)=35.1° due to aluminum oxide and the I1, I1 / I3≧0.35 It has a crystal structure that satisfies the following: By using an azo dye having such a crystal structure, it is possible to form a color filter having good heat resistance and light resistance. In the present invention, the color filter having excellent heat resistance or light resistance is formed by reducing the color difference (ΔE * ab) is small.

[0009] In the X-ray diffraction pattern, the maximum peak at 5° to 25°, which is in the diffraction angle range (2θ±0.2°) of 9.8° to 16.0°, may be at 11.0° to 11.8°, but is preferably outside the range of 11.0° to 11.8°.

[0010] The I2 / I1 is preferably 0.07 or more, more preferably 0.09 or more, and is preferably 0.6 or less, more preferably 0.5 or less, even more preferably 0.45 or less, still more preferably 0.40 or less, and even more preferably 0.38 or less.

[0011] The I1 / I3 is preferably 0.37 or more, more preferably 0.39 or more, even more preferably 0.41 or more, still more preferably 0.43 or more, and is preferably 1.0 or less, more preferably 0.95 or less, even more preferably 0.90 or less, still more preferably 0.85 or less, even more preferably 0.80 or less, and may be 0.70 or less.

[0012] In the X-ray diffraction analysis of the present invention, CuKα radiation (1.5418 Å) from the anticathode is used as the X-ray source, and aluminum oxide is used as the internal standard substance. In the specific method of X-ray diffraction analysis, 50 parts by mass of azo dye as a sample was mixed with 50 parts by mass of aluminum oxide as an internal standard substance, and the mixture was crushed while passing through a 150-mesh wire netting. The crushed sample was then filled into a recess (inner dimensions 20 mm x 20 mm x 0.5 mm) of a glass sample plate manufactured by Rigaku Corporation, and the surface was flattened for measurement. Note that there is a peak derived from the glass sample plate (halo: Koji Obara, "What is the halo of X-ray diffraction?", NEW GLASS, 2016, Vol. 31, No. 118, pp. 24-26), which must be distinguished from the peak derived from the colorant. Therefore, in the present invention, the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the azo dye was calculated by calculating the difference spectrum between the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the glass sample plate alone and the X-ray diffraction spectrum of the colorant. Furthermore, since the thickness of the sample depends on the intensity of the X-ray diffraction spectrum, the X-ray diffraction spectrum normalized to the peak intensity I3 of aluminum oxide as the internal standard substance of 100,000 was used.

[0013] The azo dye of the present invention preferably has two or more peaks, more preferably three or more peaks, and preferably 15 or less, more preferably 10 or less, and even more preferably 7 or less, in the range of diffraction angles (2θ±0.2°) of 5° to 25° in the X-ray diffraction, the relative intensity of which is 10% or more and less than 100%, when the maximum peak intensity I1 is taken as 100%.

[0014] Examples of the azo dye of the present invention include those having peaks at the following diffraction angles (2θ±0.2°) in the above X-ray diffraction spectrum. Example (i): 10.0, 11.2, 13.1, 15.3, 15.6, 15.8, 18.5, 18.9, 19.0, 22.1, 22.5, 23.3, 25.6, 26.1, 26.4, 26.9, 28.6, 29.1° Example (ii): 7.1, 13.0, 13.3, 14.2, 17.5, 19.1, 19.4, 20.2, 21.3, 21.7, 24.1, 24.3, 27.2, 28.3, 29.4° Example (iii): 5.7, 10.6, 11.4, 14.6, 17.2, 20.3, 21.4, 24.8, 26.1, 26.5, 26.8, 28.4° Example (iv): 7.5, 11.0, 11.6, 15.0, 15.3, 19.8, 20.5, 22.2, 23.7, 24.6, 26.4, 27.7, 28.5, 30.1, 32.3° Example (v): 6.0,10.2,11.9,15.6,16.0,18.0,18.6,20.1,20.7,22.5,23.1,23.5,24.6,25.2,27.4,30.3°

[0015] The azo dye exhibiting the above-mentioned crystal structure can be obtained, for example, by the following production method.

[0016] The method for producing an azo dye of the present invention includes a contacting step of contacting an azo dye (hereinafter also referred to as azo dye (A)) in a slurry state with a solvent (Z) at a temperature of 80 to 200°C, and a separation step of extracting the azo dye (A) contacted with the solvent (Z) by solid-liquid separation, the solvent (Z) including at least one selected from the group consisting of ester solvents, ether solvents, ether ester solvents, ketone solvents, nitrile solvents, alcohol solvents, amide solvents, aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, sulfoxide solvents, sulfone solvents, halogenated solvents, and amine solvents, and the amount of the solvent (Z) in the contacting step is 0.1 to 120.0 times by mass relative to the azo dye (A). Here, the temperature does not mean the temperature of the container, but the internal temperature of the reaction system. That is, the production method of the present invention relates to a method for producing a purified azo dye (A), comprising a contacting step of contacting azo dye (A) in a slurry state with a predetermined solvent (Z) at a predetermined temperature, and a separation step of obtaining a purified azo dye (A) by solid-liquid separation such as filtration. Hereinafter, the azo dye having a predetermined crystal structure obtained by the production method of the present invention is also referred to as azo dye (Aa). The azo colorant (Aa) obtained by this production method can be used to form a color filter having good heat resistance and light resistance.

[0017] The azo dye (A) may be a single dye consisting of one kind of azo dye, or a mixed dye containing two or more kinds of azo dyes. In addition, the azo dye (A) preferably contains the azo dye (I) described below.

[0018] <Precipitation process> The production method of the present invention may include a precipitation step of recrystallizing the azo dye (A) before the contact step. Examples of the precipitation step of recrystallizing the azo dye (A) include a poor solvent addition method, and specifically, a method of adding the azo dye (A) dissolved in a high solubility liquid (good solvent, etc.) to a low solubility liquid (poor solvent, etc.) and a method of adding a low solubility liquid to an azo dye dissolved in a high solubility liquid. The azo dye (A) to be subjected to the precipitation step may be an azo dye produced by a production method for azo dye (I) described later, or the like. When the crystal structure of the azo dye (A) varies, the crystal structure can be made uniform by recrystallization. Therefore, by providing a precipitation step before the contact step, it becomes possible to obtain an azo dye (Aa) having a desired crystal structure (i.e., a desired diffraction pattern) in a higher yield and with higher selectivity.

[0019] In the precipitation step, the azo dye (A) is not brought into contact with the solvent in a slurry state at a temperature (internal temperature) of 80° C. or higher. Therefore, the azo dye (A) obtained in the precipitation step does not have a desired crystal structure (desired diffraction pattern).

[0020] Examples of the high-solubility liquid and / or low-solubility liquid used in the precipitation step include a basic compound, a basic solution, an acidic compound, and an acidic solution.

[0021] Examples of basic compounds and basic solutions include amines such as propylamine, butylamine, hexylamine, benzylamine, dimethylamine, diethylamine, dipropylamine, dihexylamine, trimethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, pyridine, and pyrrole; ammonia water; solutions of quaternary ammonium salts such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, and benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide (preferably, aqueous solutions); alcohol solutions of alkali metal alkoxides such as a methanol solution of sodium methoxide, an ethanol solution of sodium ethoxide, and a tert-butyl alcohol solution of potassium tert-butoxide; and solutions of alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide (preferably, aqueous solutions).

[0022] Examples of acidic compounds and acidic solutions include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid, hexafluorophosphoric acid, and sulfamic acid; organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid, propionic acid, citric acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, and salicylic acid; and solutions thereof (preferably, aqueous solutions).

[0023] The basic compound, basic solution, acidic compound, and acidic solution may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0024] The highly soluble liquid may be appropriately selected depending on the azo dye (A) used, but a basic compound or a basic solution is preferred. The highly soluble liquid may further contain an organic solvent in addition to the above-mentioned basic compound, basic solution, acidic compound, and acidic solution.The organic solvent may be, for example, an alcohol solvent, an ester solvent, an ether solvent, an ether ester solvent, a ketone solvent, an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent, a nitrile solvent, etc., and these organic solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.The organic solvent is preferably an alcohol solvent such as methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, or a nitrile solvent such as acetonitrile, and more preferably an alcohol solvent.

[0025] The amount of the highly soluble liquid used may be an amount necessary to dissolve the azo dye (A), and may be appropriately determined depending on the type and concentration of the highly soluble liquid. For example, when a solution of a quaternary ammonium salt is used as the highly soluble liquid, the amount of the quaternary ammonium salt is preferably 0.1 to 20 molar equivalents relative to the azo dye (A) (1 mole), more preferably 0.5 molar equivalents or more, even more preferably 1 molar equivalents or more, more preferably 15 molar equivalents or less, and even more preferably 10 molar equivalents or less. For example, when an inorganic acid or an organic acid, or a solution thereof, is used as the highly soluble liquid, the amount of the inorganic acid or organic acid is preferably 10 to 500 molar equivalents relative to the azo dye (A) (1 mole), more preferably 20 molar equivalents or more, even more preferably 30 molar equivalents or more, more preferably 450 molar equivalents or less, and even more preferably 400 molar equivalents or less.

[0026] The mixing time, mixing temperature, stirring conditions, etc. of the azo dye (A) and the highly soluble liquid may be set to those necessary for dissolving the azo dye (A). However, the highly soluble liquid is a liquid that easily dissolves the azo dye (A), and it is not necessary to use a high temperature to dissolve the azo dye (A). For this reason, the mixing temperature (internal temperature) is less than 80°C, preferably 60°C or less, more preferably 40°C or less, and preferably 5°C or more.

[0027] The low-solubility liquid may be appropriately selected depending on the types of azo dye (A) and high-solubility liquid used. For example, when a basic compound or a basic solution is used as the high-solubility liquid, an acidic compound or an acidic solution is preferred. The low-solubility liquid may further contain an organic solvent in addition to the above-mentioned basic compound, basic solution, acidic compound, and acidic solution.The organic solvent may be, for example, an alcohol solvent, an ester solvent, an ether solvent, an ether ester solvent, a ketone solvent, an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent, a nitrile solvent, etc., and these organic solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.The organic solvent is preferably an alcohol solvent such as methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, or a nitrile solvent such as acetonitrile, and more preferably an alcohol solvent. Furthermore, for example, when an acidic compound or an acidic solution is used as the highly soluble liquid, it is preferable to use, as the low-solubility liquid, an organic solvent such as an alcohol solvent, an ester solvent, an ether solvent, an ether ester solvent, a ketone solvent, an aromatic hydrocarbon solvent, or a nitrile solvent, and more preferably an alcohol solvent such as methanol, ethanol, or isopropyl alcohol, or a nitrile solvent such as acetonitrile, and these may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0028] The amount of the low-solubility liquid used may be an amount necessary for precipitating the azo dye (A), and may be appropriately determined depending on the types and concentrations of the high-solubility liquid and the low-solubility liquid.

[0029] The mixing time, mixing temperature, stirring conditions, etc. of the mixed liquid of the azo dye (A) and the high-solubility liquid and the low-solubility liquid may be set to the conditions necessary for precipitating the azo dye (A). The mixing temperature is preferably 60° C. or less, more preferably 40° C. or less, and even more preferably 20° C. or less, from the viewpoint of efficient precipitation, and may be performed under ice cooling.

[0030] The method of adding the low-solubility liquid to the mixed liquid of the azo dye (A) and the high-solubility liquid, or adding the mixed liquid of the azo dye (A) and the high-solubility liquid to the low-solubility liquid may be a lump-sum addition, but it is preferable to add it in several portions or continuously dropwise. Even when adding it in several portions, it is preferable to add it in a continuous dropwise manner.

[0031] The azo dye (A) precipitated in the precipitation step may be extracted using a known solid-liquid separation method such as filtration or centrifugation, and may be washed with water or a solvent as necessary before being subjected to the contact step. Examples of the solvent used for washing include a solvent described below as solvent (Z). Furthermore, the azo dye (A) after washing may be subjected to a drying treatment such as vacuum drying or hot air drying as necessary.

[0032] <Contact process> The azo dye (A) is contacted with the solvent (Z) in a slurry state at a temperature (internal temperature) of 80 to 200° C. The slurry state means a state in which azo dye (A) in a mixture of the azo dye (A) and the solvent (Z) contains solid azo dye (A) that is not dissolved in the solvent (Z), and a part of the azo dye (A) may be dissolved in the solvent (Z). By contacting the azo dye (A) with the solvent (Z) at 80 to 200° C. in a slurry state, it is possible to obtain an azo dye (Aa) having a desired crystal structure (i.e., having a desired diffraction pattern).

[0033] <Solvent (Z)> The solvent (Z) used in the contact step is at least one selected from the group consisting of ester solvents (solvents containing -COO- in the molecule and not containing -O-), ether solvents (solvents containing -O- in the molecule and not containing -COO-), ether ester solvents (solvents containing -COO- and -O- in the molecule), ketone solvents (solvents containing -CO- in the molecule and not containing -COO-), alcohol solvents (solvents containing -OH in the molecule and not containing -O-, -CO-, and -COO-), aromatic hydrocarbon solvents (solvents containing aromatic hydrocarbon groups in the molecule and not containing -O-, -OH, and halogen atoms), amide solvents, sulfoxide solvents, sulfone solvents, halogen solvents (solvents containing halogen atoms in the molecule and not containing -OH), amine solvents (solvents containing -N< in the molecule and not containing -OH), and nitrile solvents.

In this case, the dispersant and a part or all of the resin (B) may be mixed as necessary. It is preferable to prepare the desired colored curable resin composition by mixing the remaining components to the dispersion thus obtained to a predetermined concentration. When using a bead mill, the diameter of the beads is preferably 0.05 mm or more and 0.5 mm or less, and the material of the beads may be glass, ceramic, metal, etc.

[0310] <Manufacturing method of color filters> Examples of methods for producing a colored pattern of a color filter from the colored curable resin composition of the present invention include a photolithography method, an inkjet method, and a printing method. Among these, the photolithography method is preferred. The photolithography method is a method in which the colored curable resin composition is applied to a substrate, dried to form a composition layer, and the composition layer is exposed through a photomask and developed. In the photolithography method, a colored coating film, which is a cured product of the composition layer, can be formed by not using a photomask during exposure and / or not developing.

[0311] The thickness of the color filter (cured film) is not particularly limited and can be appropriately adjusted depending on the purpose or use, and is, for example, 0.1 μm or more and 30 μm or less, preferably 0.1 μm or more and 20 μm or less, and more preferably 0.5 μm or more and 6 μm or less.

[0312] The substrate may be a glass plate such as quartz glass, borosilicate glass, alumina silicate glass, or soda lime glass with a silica-coated surface, a resin plate such as polycarbonate, polymethylmethacrylate, or polyethylene terephthalate, silicon, or a substrate having a thin film of aluminum, silver, or a silver / copper / palladium alloy formed thereon. On these substrates, another color filter layer, a resin layer, a transistor, a circuit, or the like may be formed. A silicon substrate having an HMDS treatment may also be used.

[0313] Formation of each color pixel by photolithography can be performed with known or conventional equipment and conditions. For example, it can be produced as follows. First, a colored curable resin composition is applied onto a substrate, and volatile components such as a solvent are removed by heating and drying (pre-baking) and / or drying under reduced pressure to obtain a smooth composition layer. Examples of the application method include spin coating, slit coating, and slit and spin coating. The temperature when drying by heating is preferably 30° C. or more and 120° C. or less, more preferably 50° C. or more and 110° C. or less. The heating time is preferably 10 seconds or more and 60 minutes or less, more preferably 30 seconds or more and 30 minutes or less. When drying under reduced pressure, it is preferably performed under a pressure of 50 to 150 Pa at a temperature range of 20 to 25° C. The film thickness of the composition layer is not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected according to the film thickness of the desired color filter.

[0314] Next, the composition layer is exposed through a photomask for forming a desired colored pattern. The pattern on the photomask is not particularly limited, and a pattern according to the intended use is used. As the light source used for exposure, a light source that generates light with a wavelength of 250 to 450 nm is preferable. For example, light less than 350 nm may be cut using a filter that cuts this wavelength range, or light near 436 nm, near 408 nm, and near 365 nm may be selectively extracted using a bandpass filter that extracts these wavelength ranges. Specific examples include mercury lamps, light-emitting diodes, metal halide lamps, halogen lamps, and the like. It is preferable to use a mask aligner, a reduction projection exposure device such as a stepper, or a proximity exposure device, since it is possible to uniformly irradiate the entire exposure surface with parallel light rays and to accurately align the photomask and the substrate.

[0315] The composition layer after exposure is brought into contact with a developer for development, thereby forming a colored pattern on the substrate. The unexposed portion of the composition layer is dissolved in the developer and removed by development. The developer is preferably an aqueous solution of an alkaline compound such as potassium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, or tetramethylammonium hydroxide. The concentration of these alkaline compounds in the aqueous solution is preferably 0.01% by mass or more and 10% by mass or less, more preferably 0.03% by mass or more and 5% by mass or less. Furthermore, the developer may contain a surfactant. The development method may be any of a paddle method, a dipping method, and a spray method. Furthermore, the substrate may be tilted at any angle during development. After development, it is preferable to wash with water.

[0316] Furthermore, it is preferable to perform post-baking on the obtained colored pattern. The post-baking temperature is preferably from 80° C. to 250° C., and more preferably from 100° C. to 245° C. The post-baking time is preferably from 1 minute to 120 minutes, and more preferably from 2 minutes to 30 minutes.

[0317] The colored pattern and colored coating film thus obtained are useful as color filters, and the color filters are useful as color filters for use in display devices (e.g., liquid crystal display devices, organic EL devices, etc.), electronic paper, solid-state imaging devices, etc. EXAMPLES
