Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a photosensitive coloring composition used in the production of a color filter used in a color liquid crystal display device such as a solid-state imaging device, and a color filter using the same.

Background Art

[0002] A color filter constituting a color liquid crystal display device (LCD), a solid-state imaging device, etc. is manufactured by applying a coating liquid (coloring composition) onto a transparent substrate and drying it to form a coating film having a thickness of about 0.3 to 3 μm.

[0003] Generally, a color filter used in a solid-state imaging device has a smaller pixel size and is a thinner film than an LCD. Also, the solid-state imaging device itself has been miniaturized. While the color filter is being made thinner, the chromaticity of the pixels needs to be maintained, so the concentration of the colorant in the coating film cannot be decreased. Therefore, while increasing the content of the colorant in the photosensitive coloring composition, other components (resin, polymerizable compound, photoinitiator, etc.) need to be relatively reduced in amount. As a result, problems have occurred such as the problem that no pixel pattern remains after the development process (poor adhesion), the problem that the rectangularity of the pixels deteriorates even if the pixel pattern remains (poor shape), and the problem that the formed pixel pattern deteriorates in a later process (poor resistance). Regarding the above problems, Patent Document 1 discloses a photosensitive coloring composition containing a binder resin having a defined acid value. Also, Patent Document 2 discloses a photosensitive coloring composition that can form a pattern with good solvent resistance and suppress development residues by containing a polymerizable compound having a specific structure containing two secondary hydroxyl groups, even when the content of the colorant is increased. Also, Patent Document 3 discloses a photosensitive coloring composition containing a polymerizable compound having a specific (meth)acryloyl group, one or more and twelve or less hydroxyl groups derived from a glycidyl group, and a branched structure, which has few residues in the unexposed portion after development and good pattern formability.

Among these, CI Pigment Yellow 138, 139, 150, 185 and the quinophthalone compounds described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2012-226110 are preferred for reproducing the color gamut of the color filter.

[0022] Examples of green pigments include CI Pigment Green 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 17, 18, 19, 26, 36, 45, 48, 50, 51, 54, 55, 58, 59, 62, and 63. Among these, CI Pigment Green 7, 36, 58, 59, 62, and 63 are preferred from the viewpoint of brightness and coloring power. In addition, zinc phthalocyanine pigments described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-19383, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2007-320986, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-70342, etc., and aluminum phthalocyanine pigments described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-333817, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2012-247588, etc. can be used. For blue pigments, for example, CIPigment Blue 15, 15:1, 15:2, 15:3, 15:4, 15:6, 16, 22, 60, 64, 80, etc. can be used.

[0024] Furthermore, any of the following dyes can be used: acid dyes, direct dyes, basic dyes, salt-forming dyes, oil-soluble dyes, disperse dyes, reactive dyes, mordant dyes, vat dyes, sulfur dyes, etc. Derivatives of these dyes, or even lake pigments (dyes prepared by lake formation), are also acceptable.

[0025] Acid dyes preferably have acidic groups such as sulfonic acid or carboxylic acid. Direct dyes preferably form salt compounds with an inorganic salt of the acid dye, or with an acid dye and a nitrogen-containing compound such as a quaternary ammonium salt compound, tertiary amine compound, secondary amine compound, or primary amine compound. Salt compounds that are salts of a resin component having these functional groups and an acid dye are also preferred. Furthermore, by sulfonamidating the salt compound to a sulfonic acid amide compound, it is easy to obtain a photosensitive colored composition with excellent resistance (lightfastness, solvent resistance). Furthermore, salt-forming compounds of acid dyes and compounds containing an onium base are also preferred due to their excellent resistance (light resistance and solvent resistance). The compound containing the onium base is preferably a resin having a cationic group.

[0026] Basic dyes can be used as is, but salt compounds formed by chlorinating with organic acids, perchloric acid, or their metal salts are preferred. Salt compounds of basic dyes are preferred because they have excellent resistance (lightfastness, solvent resistance) and affinity with pigments. Furthermore, in salt compounds of basic dyes, preferred anionic components that act as counterions are salt compounds formed by chlorinating with organic sulfonic acids, organic sulfuric acids, fluorine-containing phosphorus anionic compounds, fluorine-containing boron anionic compounds, cyano-containing nitrogen anionic compounds, anionic compounds having a conjugate base of an organic acid with a halogenated hydrocarbon group, and acid dyes. Note that the resistance of the salt compound is further improved if it contains polymerizable unsaturated groups in its molecule.

[0027] Furthermore, if the pigment skeleton has polymerizable unsaturated groups, it can be used to produce a dye with excellent resistance, which is preferable.

[0028] Examples of dye chemical structures include azo dyes, disazo dyes, azomethine dyes (indoaniline dyes, indophenol dyes, etc.), dipyromethene dyes, quinone dyes (benzoquinone dyes, naphthoquinone dyes, anthraquinone dyes, anthrapyridone dyes, etc.), carbonium dyes (diphenylmethane dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, xanthene dyes, acridine dyes, etc.), quinoneimine dyes (oxazine dyes, thiazine dyes, etc.), and azine. Examples of pigment structures derived from dyes selected from the following: polymethine dyes (oxonol dyes, merocyanine dyes, allylidene dyes, styryl dyes, cyanine dyes, squarylium dyes, croconium dyes, etc.), quinophthalone dyes, phthalocyanine dyes, subphthalocyanine dyes, perinone dyes, indigo dyes, thioindigo dyes, quinoline dyes, nitro dyes, nitroso dyes, rhodamine dyes, and metal complex dyes thereof.

[0029] Among these pigment structures, from the viewpoint of color characteristics such as hue, color separation, and color unevenness, pigment structures derived from pigments selected from azo dyes, xanthene dyes, cyanine dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, anthraquinone dyes, dipyromethene dyes, squarylium dyes, quinophthalone dyes, phthalocyanine dyes, and subphthalocyanine dyes are preferred, and pigment structures derived from pigments selected from xanthene dyes, cyanine dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, anthraquinone dyes, dipyromethene dyes, and phthalocyanine dyes are more preferred. Specific pigment compounds that can form pigment structures are described in "New Edition Dye Handbook" (edited by the Society of Synthetic Organic Chemistry; Maruzen, 1970), "Color Index" (The Society of Dyers and colourists), and "Pigment Handbook" (edited by Okawara et al.; Kodansha, 1986), among others.

[0030] Furthermore, the dye derivative (b) described later, which may be added as needed in the present invention, is classified as a colorant.

[0031] Coloring agent (A) can be used alone or in combination of two or more types.

[0032] <Pigment miniaturization> The method for micronizing the pigment used in the photosensitive colored composition of the present invention is not particularly limited. For example, wet grinding, dry grinding, or dissolution extraction methods can all be used. As exemplified in the present invention, micronization can be performed by salt milling using a kneader method, which is a type of wet grinding. The average primary particle size of the pigment, as determined by TEM (transmission electron microscope), is preferably in the range of 10 to 80 nm. If it is smaller than 10 nm, dispersion in the organic solvent becomes difficult, and if it is larger than 80 nm, a sufficient contrast ratio may not be obtained. For these reasons, a more preferable average primary particle size is in the range of 15 to 70 nm.

[0033] Salt milling is a process in which a mixture of pigment, water-soluble inorganic salt, and water-soluble organic solvent is mechanically kneaded while heated using batch or continuous kneading machines such as kneaders, two-roll mills, three-roll mills, ball mills, attritors, sand mills, and planetary mixers, and then washed with water to remove the water-soluble inorganic salt and water-soluble organic solvent. The water-soluble inorganic salt acts as a crushing aid, and the pigment is crushed by utilizing the high hardness of the inorganic salt during salt milling. By optimizing the conditions for salt milling the pigment, it is possible to obtain pigments with a very fine primary particle size, a narrow distribution width, and a sharp particle size distribution.

[0034] As water-soluble inorganic salts, sodium chloride, barium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium sulfate, etc., can be used, but from a cost standpoint, sodium chloride (table salt) is preferred. From the perspective of both processing efficiency and production efficiency, it is preferable to use 50 to 2000 parts by mass of water-soluble inorganic salt per 100 parts by mass of pigment, and most preferably 300 to 1000 parts by mass.

[0035] The water-soluble organic solvent serves to wet the pigment and the water-soluble inorganic salt. It is not particularly limited as long as it dissolves (miscible) in water and does not substantially dissolve the inorganic salt used. However, since the temperature rises during salt milling and the solvent is prone to evaporation, a high-boiling-point solvent with a boiling point of 120°C or higher is preferred from a safety standpoint. For example, 2-methoxyethanol, 2-butoxyethanol, 2-(isopentyloxy)ethanol, 2-(hexyloxy)ethanol, diethylene glycol, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether, triethylene glycol, triethylene glycol monomethyl ether, liquid polyethylene glycol, 1-methoxy-2-propanol, 1-ethoxy-2-propanol, dipropylene glycol, dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, liquid polypropylene glycol, etc. are used. The water-soluble organic solvent is preferably used in an amount of 5 to 1000 parts by mass, and most preferably 50 to 500 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of pigment.

[0036] When the pigment is subjected to salt milling, a resin may be added as needed. The type of resin used is not particularly limited, and natural resins, modified natural resins, synthetic resins, synthetic resins modified with natural resins, etc., can be used. The resin used is preferably solid at room temperature, insoluble in water, and more preferably partially soluble in the above organic solvent. The amount of resin used is preferably in the range of 5 to 200 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of pigment.

[0037] <Metal Removal> If specific metal elements are present in large quantities as impurities other than the pigment components in the colored composition, it can impair the dispersion stability over time, and may also reduce heat resistance or sensitivity. Furthermore, color filters made using such compositions may develop foreign matter, which can easily lead to a decrease in brightness. It is preferable that the total content of Li, Na, K, Mg, Ca, Fe, Al, and Cr (hereinafter also referred to as specific metal elements) in the photosensitive colored composition is 500 ppm by mass or less.

[0038] The total amount of specific metal elements contained in the photosensitive colored composition is more preferably 300 ppm by mass or less, and particularly preferably 200 ppm by mass or less. Furthermore, while there is no particular lower limit to the total amount of specific metal elements, it is preferably 1 ppm by mass or more, and more preferably 5 ppm by mass or more. Within the above range, a photosensitive colored composition can be obtained that suppresses costs, has excellent storage stability, and can form a color filter with minimal generation of foreign matter and reduction in brightness.

[0039] The amount of each specific metal element contained in the photosensitive coloring composition is preferably 100 ppm by mass or less, and more preferably 50 ppm by mass or less.

[0040] Furthermore, it is preferable that the metals that make up the pigment, such as Ni, Zn, Cu, Al, Fe, Fe, Co, and Co, contain fewer impurities that do not function effectively, and these can be removed in the same way as specific metal elements by the following methods. In addition, it is preferable that the concentrations of Mn, Cs, Ti, Co, Si, Pd, etc., that have been introduced due to materials used in the manufacturing process of the various raw materials of the photosensitive colored composition (for example, catalysts) be low.

[0041] Methods for removing colorants (A) or metals introduced from equipment during the manufacturing process include washing with water as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-83997, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2018-36521, Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 7-198928, Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 8-333521, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2009-7432, etc., and methods for removing magnetic foreign matter using a magnet as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2011-48736, and one or more of these methods may be used as appropriate.

[0042] The content of specific metal elements can be measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP).

[0043] <Dye derivative (b)> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention can use a dye derivative (b). The dye derivative (b) is a compound having an acidic group, a basic group, a neutral group, etc., in an organic dye residue. Examples include compounds having acidic substituents such as a sulfo group, a carboxyl group, or a phosphate group, and their amine salts; compounds having basic substituents such as a sulfonamide group or a tertiary amino group at the terminal; and compounds having neutral substituents such as a phenyl group or a phthalimidoalkyl group. Since the dispersion resin (B1) used in combination has an acidic group, a dye derivative having a basic group is preferred. Examples of organic pigments in organic pigment residues include diketopyrrolopyrrole pigments, anthraquinone pigments, quinacridone pigments, dioxazine pigments, perinone pigments, perylene pigments, thiaidine indigo pigments, triazine pigments, benzimidazolone pigments, indole pigments such as benzoisoindole, isoindoline pigments, isoindolinone pigments, quinophthalone pigments, naphthol pigments, surene pigments, metal complex pigments, azo pigments such as azo, disazo, and polyazo, and so on. These dye derivatives (b) can be used individually or in combination of two or more types.

[0044] The amount of dye derivative (b) used is preferably 1 to 30 parts by mass, more preferably 3 to 25 parts by mass, and even more preferably 5 to 20 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of colorant (A).

[0045] By adding a pigment derivative (b) to the pigment and performing a micronization treatment such as acid pasting, acid slurry, dry milling, salt milling, or solvent salt milling, the pigment derivative is adsorbed onto the pigment surface, and the primary particles of the pigment can be made finer compared to when no pigment derivative is added.

[0046] <Resin (B)> Resin (B) preferably contains a dispersion resin (B1). Furthermore, resin (B) preferably contains an alkali-soluble resin (B2).

[0047] <Dispersion resin (B1)> The dispersion resin (B1) has adsorption sites that adsorb to the colorant and steric repulsion sites that disperse the colorant. The dispersion resin (B1) is not particularly limited, and known resins can be used. Examples of dispersion resins (B1) include urethane resins, polycarboxylic acid esters such as polyacrylates, unsaturated polyamides, polycarboxylic acids, polycarboxylic acid (partial)amine salts, polycarboxylic acid ammonium salts, polycarboxylic acid alkylamine salts, polysiloxanes, long-chain polyaminoamide phosphates, hydroxyl group-containing polycarboxylic acid esters, and modified products thereof, amides and salts thereof formed by the reaction of poly(lower alkyleneimines) with polyesters having free carboxyl groups, water-soluble resins and water-soluble polymer compounds such as (meth)acrylic acid-styrene copolymers, (meth)acrylic acid-(meth)acrylic acid ester copolymers, styrene-maleic acid copolymers, polyvinyl alcohol, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyester systems, modified polyacrylate systems, ethylene oxide / propylene oxide adduct compounds, and phosphate ester systems. Furthermore, examples of polymeric dispersants having basic functional groups include nitrogen atom-containing graft copolymers, nitrogen atom-containing acrylic block copolymers and urethane polymeric dispersants having functional groups in their side chains that include tertiary amino groups, quaternary ammonium bases, nitrogen-containing heterocycles, etc.

[0048] Commercially available dispersion resins (B1) are Disperbyk-101, 103, 107, 108, 110, 111, 116, 130, 140, 154, 161, 162, 163, 164, 165, 166, 167, 168, 170, 171, 174, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185, 190, 2000, 2001, 2009, 2010, 2020, 2025, 2050, 2070, 2095, 2150, 21 SOLSPERSE-3000, 9000, 13000, 13240, 13650, 13940, 16000, 17000, 18000, 20000, 21 00, 24000, 26000, 27000, 28000, 31845, 32000, 32500, 32550, 33500, 32600, 34750, 35100, 36600, 38500, 41000, 41090, 53095, 55000, 56000, 76500, etc., as well as BASF Japan's EFKA-46, 47, 48, 452, 4008, 4009, 4010, 4015, 4020, 4047, 4050, 4055, 4060, 4080 Examples include 4400, 4401, 4402, 4403, 4406, 4408, 4300, 4310, 4320, 4330, 4340, 450, 451, 453, 4540, 4550, 4560, 4800, 5010, 5065, 5066, 5070, 7500, 7554, 1101, 120, 150, 1501, 1502, 1503, etc., as well as Ajispa-PA111, PB711, PB821, PB822, PB824 manufactured by Ajinomoto Fine Techno Co., Ltd.

[0049] The dispersion resin (B1) preferably has polymerizable unsaturated groups. Because the dispersion resin (B1) has polymerizable unsaturated groups, it has photosensitivity in addition to its normal dispersion performance. Therefore, in compositions with high pigment concentrations, the crosslinking density of the formed film is further improved by light irradiation, and the pattern shape of the pixels is improved.

[0050] The content of the dispersion resin (B1) is preferably 1 to 20% by mass, and more preferably 2 to 17% by mass, based on 100% by mass of the nonvolatile content of the photosensitive colored composition.

[0051] <Alkali-soluble resin (B2)> The alkali-soluble resin (B2) is, for example, a resin having acidic groups such as carboxyl groups and sulfone groups. This allows photolithography properties to be imparted to the film formed from the photosensitive colored composition.

[0052] Examples of alkali-soluble resins (B2) include acrylic resins, α-olefin / (anhydride) maleic acid copolymers, styrene / styrene sulfonic acid copolymers, ethylene / (meth)acrylic acid copolymers, or isobutylene / (anhydride) maleic acid copolymers. Among these, acrylic resins and styrene / styrene sulfonic acid copolymers are preferred.

[0053] Alkali-soluble resins (B2) can be classified into alkali-soluble resins without polymerizable unsaturated groups (B2-1) and alkali-soluble resins with polymerizable unsaturated groups (B2-2).

[0054] The weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the alkali-soluble resin (B2) is preferably 2,000 to 40,000, more preferably 3,000 to 30,000, and even more preferably 4,000 to 20,000, in order to impart alkali-developable solubility. Furthermore, the Mw / Mn value is preferably 10 or less. Having an appropriate weight-average molecular weight (Mw) makes it easier to achieve both improved adhesion and suppression of development residue. The acid value of the alkali-soluble resin (B2) is preferably 50-200 mgKOH / g, more preferably 70-180 mgKOH / g, and even more preferably 90-170 mgKOH / g. Having an appropriate acid value makes it easier to achieve both improved adhesion and suppression of developing residue.

[0055] <Alkali-soluble resin (B2-1) without polymerizable unsaturated groups> The alkali-soluble resin (B2-1) that does not have polymerizable unsaturated groups can be appropriately selected from resins such as the acrylic resins already exemplified, and from resins obtained by removing polymerizable unsaturated groups from the alkali-soluble resin (B2-2) described below.

[0056] <Alkali-soluble resin having polymerizable unsaturated groups (B2-2)> The alkali-soluble resin (B2-2) having polymerizable unsaturated groups includes, for example, resins to which polymerizable unsaturated groups have been added, such as the acrylic resins already exemplified. In this specification, resins synthesized by, for example, the methods described in (i) and (ii) below are preferred. This results in a higher crosslinking density upon light irradiation of the film formed from the photosensitive colored composition.

[0057] [Method (i)] Method (i) is, for example, to first synthesize polymers of epoxy group-containing monomers and other monomers. Then, a carboxyl group-containing monomer is added to the epoxy group of the polymer, and a polybasic acid anhydride is reacted with the resulting hydroxyl group to obtain an alkali-soluble resin (B2).

[0058] Examples of epoxy group-containing monomers include glycidyl (meth)acrylate, methylglycidyl (meth)acrylate, 2-glycidoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 3,4-epoxybutyl (meth)acrylate, and 3,4-epoxycyclohexyl (meth)acrylate. Among these, glycidyl (meth)acrylate is preferred from the viewpoint of reactivity.

[0059] Monocarboxyl group-containing monomers include, for example, (meth)acrylic acid, crotonic acid, o-, m-, p-vinylbenzoic acid, and monocarboxylic acids such as α-haloalkyl, alkoxyl, halogen, nitro, and cyano-substituted derivatives of (meth)acrylic acid.

[0060] Examples of polybasic acid anhydrides include tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, hexahydrophthalic anhydride, succinic anhydride, and maleic anhydride.

[0061] Monomers and polybasic acid anhydrides can be used individually or in combination of two or more types.

[0062] Another method similar to method (i) involves, for example, synthesizing a carboxyl group-containing monomer and other monomers to produce a polymer. Then, an epoxy group-containing monomer is added to some of the carboxyl groups of the polymer to obtain an alkali-soluble resin (B2).

[0063] [Method (ii)] Method (ii) involves, for example, synthesizing a hydroxyl group-containing monomer, a carboxyl group-containing monomer, and other monomers to produce a polymer. Then, the hydroxyl group of the polymer is reacted with the isocyanate group of the isocyanate group-containing monomer.

[0064] The hydroxyl group-containing monomers that have already been exemplified can be used. Among these, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and glycerol mono(meth)acrylate are preferred because they are less likely to produce foreign matter in the coating. In addition, glycerol mono(meth)acrylate is preferred in terms of light sensitivity.

[0065] Examples of monomers having an isocyanate group include 2-(meth)acryloylethyl isocyanate, 2-(meth)acryloyloxyethyl isocyanate, or 1,1-bis[methacryloyloxy]ethyl isocyanate.

[0066] Other monomers that can be used in the synthesis of alkali-soluble resin (B2) include, for example, (meth)acrylates such as methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-propyl (meth)acrylate, isopropyl (meth)acrylate, n-butyl (meth)acrylate, isobutyl (meth)acrylate, tert-butyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, stearyl (meth)acrylate, lauryl (meth)acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl (meth)acrylate, isobornyl (meth)acrylate, phenyl (meth)acrylate, benzyl (meth)acrylate, phenoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, phenoxydiethylene glycol (meth)acrylate, methoxypolypropylene glycol (meth)acrylate, or ethoxypolyethylene glycol (meth)acrylate. Alternatively, examples include (meth)acrylamides such as (meth)acrylamide, N,N-dimethyl(meth)acrylamide, N,N-diethyl(meth)acrylamide, N-isopropyl(meth)acrylamide, diacetone(meth)acrylamide, or styrenes such as acryloylmorpholine, or styrenes such as α-methylstyrene, vinyl ethers such as ethyl vinyl ether, n-propyl vinyl ether, isopropyl vinyl ether, n-butyl vinyl ether, or isobutyl vinyl ether, and vinyl fatty acid compounds such as vinyl acetate or vinyl propionate.

[0072] Resin (B) can be used alone or in combination of two or more types. The total content of resin (B) is preferably 1 to 20% by mass, and more preferably 2 to 17% by mass, based on 100% by mass of the nonvolatile content of the photosensitive colored composition.

[0073] <Polymerizable compound (C)> Polymerizable compound (C) includes monomers and oligomers having polymerizable unsaturated groups. Examples of polymerizable compound (C) include polymerizable compound (C1) containing one or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three or more polymerizable unsaturated groups, polymerizable compounds having acid groups, polymerizable compounds having urethane bonds, and other polymerizable compounds. The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention is characterized by containing polymerizable compound (C1) containing one or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three or more polymerizable unsaturated groups.

[0074] (A polymerizable compound (C1) containing one or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three or more polymerizable unsaturated groups) By including a polymerizable compound (C1) containing one or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three or more polymerizable unsaturated groups, the overall polarity of the coating film is increased, reducing its affinity for nonpolar oxygen and making oxygen inhibition during photocuring less likely. As a result, a higher molecular weight crosslinked structure can be formed during photocuring, making it less soluble in alkaline developers, and improving the adhesion and rectangularity of the formed pixels. Furthermore, high solvent resistance can be obtained by forming a high molecular weight crosslinked structure. A polymerizable compound (C1) containing one or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three or more polymerizable unsaturated groups may also have acid groups or urethane bonds.

[0075] Furthermore, it is preferable that the polymerizable compound (C1) has two or more secondary hydroxyl groups and three polymerizable unsaturated groups.

[0076] Furthermore, it is more preferable that the polymerizable compound (C1) has two or more secondary hydroxyl groups and four or more polymerizable unsaturated groups.

[0080] (Polymerizable compounds containing acidic groups) The polymerizable compound (C) in the present invention may contain polymerizable compounds having acidic groups.

[0091] <Photopolymerization initiator (D)> The photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention contains a photopolymerization initiator (D). The photopolymerization initiator (D) preferably contains a photopolymerization initiator (D1) having an oxime ester skeleton (hereinafter referred to as oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiator (D1)).

[0092] (Oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiator (D1)) The oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiator (D1) undergoes cleavage of the NO bond in the oxime upon absorption of ultraviolet light, generating iminyl radicals and alkyloxy radicals. These radicals further decompose to generate highly active radicals, allowing for pattern formation with less exposure compared to other photopolymerization initiators. This improves photocurability and enhances the pattern shape of the pixels.

[0093] Oxime ester photopolymerization initiators (D1) can be classified by their molecular skeleton into oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having a carbazole skeleton, a fluorene skeleton, or a diphenyl skeleton, as well as oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having two oxime ester groups. Furthermore, preferred specific molecular structures include hydroxyl groups, nitro groups, carbonyl groups, fluorinated carbon groups, and benzofurans.

[0094] (Oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiators having a diphenyl skeleton) Examples of oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiators having a diphenyl skeleton and one oxime ester group are listed below. [ka]

[0096] (Oxime ester photopolymerization initiator having a fluorene skeleton) Examples of oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiators having a fluorene skeleton and one oxime ester group are listed below. [ka]

[0097] (Oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiator having two oxime ester groups) Examples of oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiators include those having two oxime ester groups on either side of a carbazole skeleton or a phenothiazine skeleton, as shown below. [ka]

[0098] Among these, oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having a carbazole structure, oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having a diphenyl skeleton, and oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having two oxime ester groups (including those having a carbazole skeleton) are preferred, with oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having a carbazole structure being the most preferred. Furthermore, for oxime ester photopolymerization initiators having a diphenyl skeleton, if the molecular weight of the radical compound generated during exposure is high, the mobility within the coating film decreases and the radical reactivity with polymerizable compounds decreases. Therefore, it is preferable that the terminal end of the ester group in the oxime ester group does not become a phenyl ester.

[0099] Other oxime ester-based photopolymerization initiators include, for example, 3-benzoyloxyiminobutan-2-one, 3-acetoxyiminobutan-2-one, 3-propionyloxyiminobutan-2-one, 2-acetoxyiminopentan-3-one, 2-acetoxyimino-1-phenylpropane-1-one, 2-benzoyloxyimino-1-phenylpropane-1-one, 3-(4-toluenesulfonyloxy)iminobutan-2-one, and 2-ethoxycarbonyloxyimino-1-phenylpropane-1-one.

[0102] The content of the photopolymerization initiator (D) is preferably 0.1 to 20 parts by mass, and more preferably 0.2 to 10 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the nonvolatile content of the photosensitive composition.

[0104] <Thermosetting compound (E)> In the present invention, the resin (B) may include a thermosetting compound (E). When producing a color filter using the coloring composition for color filters of the present invention, including a thermosetting compound allows the composition to react during the firing of the filter segment, increasing the crosslinking density of the coating film. This improves the heat resistance of the filter segment, suppresses pigment aggregation during the firing of the filter segment, and improves the contrast ratio.

[0105] The thermosetting compound (E) may be a low-molecular-weight compound or a high-molecular-weight compound such as a resin. Examples of thermosetting compounds (E) include epoxy compounds, oxetane compounds, benzoguanamine compounds, rosin-modified maleic acid compounds, rosin-modified fumaric acid compounds, melamine compounds, urea compounds, and phenolic compounds, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

Such polymers can be obtained using known polymerization methods.

[0113] The oxetane compound content in the photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention is typically 0.5 to 20 parts by mass, preferably 1 to 10 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the coloring agent. A content of the oxetane compound within this range is preferable because it yields a coating film with excellent chemical resistance.

[0114] (Melamine compound) In this invention, the term "melamine compound" refers to a compound having a melamine ring structure. The melamine compound may be a low-molecular-weight compound or a high-molecular-weight compound such as a resin. In this invention, preferred melamine compounds are of the methylol type or ether type, with 5.0 or more methylol groups and / or ether groups per melamine ring. If the number of methylol groups and / or ether groups per melamine ring is less than 5.0, there are fewer reaction sites, and the crosslinked structure during curing may not be sufficiently dense, resulting in a reduced effect on improving the heat resistance and chemical resistance of the coating film.

[0115] Examples of commercially available products include, but are not limited to, Nikarac MW-30HM, MW-390, MW-100LM, MX-750LM, MW-30M, MW-30, MW-22, MS-21, MS-11, MW-24X, MS-001, MX-002, MX-730, MX-750, MX-708, MX-706, MX-042, MX-45, MX-500, MX-520, MX-43, MX-417, MX-410 (manufactured by Sanwa Chemical Co., Ltd.), and Cymel 232, 235, 236, 238, 285, 300, 301, 303, 350, 370 (manufactured by Japan Cytec Industries Co., Ltd.).

[0117] (Hardening agent) Furthermore, the coloring composition for color filters of the present invention may optionally contain a curing agent (curing accelerator) to assist in the curing of the thermosetting compound. Effective curing agents include amine compounds, acid anhydrides, active esters, carboxylic acid compounds, and sulfonic acid compounds, but are not limited to these; any curing agent that can react with the thermosetting compound may be used. Examples of curing agents include amine compounds (e.g., dicyandiamide, benzyldimethylamine, 4-(dimethylamino)-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, 4-methoxy-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, 4-methyl-N,N-dimethylbenzylamine, etc.), quaternary ammonium salt compounds (e.g., triethylbenzylammonium chloride, etc.), blocked isocyanate compounds (e.g., dimethylamine, etc.), imidazole derivatives, bicyclic amidine compounds and their salts (e.g., imidazole, 2-methylimidazole, 2-ethylimidazole, 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole, 2) These can be used as curing accelerators, such as phenylimidazole, 4-phenylimidazole, 1-cyanoethyl-2-phenylimidazole, 1-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole, phosphorus compounds (e.g., triphenylphosphine), and S-triazine derivatives (e.g., 2,4-diamino-6-methacryloyloxyethyl-S-triazine, 2-vinyl-2,4-diamino-S-triazine, 2-vinyl-4,6-diamino-S-triazine isocyanuric acid adduct, 2,4-diamino-6-methacryloyloxyethyl-S-triazine isocyanuric acid adduct, etc.). These may be used individually or in combination of two or more. The content of the curing accelerator is preferably 0.01 to 15 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the thermosetting compound.

[0118] <Sensitizer (F)> Furthermore, the photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention may contain a sensitizer (F). Examples of sensitizers (F) include chalcone derivatives, unsaturated ketones such as dibenzalacetone, 1,2-diketone derivatives such as benzyl and camphorquinone, benzoin derivatives, fluorene derivatives, naphthoquinone derivatives, anthraquinone derivatives, xanthene derivatives, thioxanthene derivatives, xanthone derivatives, thioxanthone derivatives, coumarin derivatives, ketocoumarin derivatives, cyanine derivatives, merocyanine derivatives, polymethine dyes such as oxonol derivatives, acridine derivatives, azine derivatives, thiaidine derivatives, oxazine derivatives, indoline derivatives, azulene derivatives, azulenium derivatives, squarylium derivatives, porphyrin derivatives, tetraphenylporphyrin derivatives, triarylmethane derivatives, tetrabenzoporphyrin derivatives, and tetrapyradinoporphyrazine derivatives.

[0120] These sensitizers (F) can be used individually or mixed in any ratio of two or more as needed. Examples of commercially available products include "KAYACURE DETX-S" (2,4-diethylthioxanthone, manufactured by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd.) and "CHEMARK DEABP" (4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone, manufactured by Chemark Chemical Co., Ltd.).

[0121] More specifically, examples of sensitizers include, but are not limited to, those described in "Pigment Handbook" (1986, Kodansha) edited by Shin Okawara et al., "Chemistry of Functional Pigments" (1981, CMC) edited by Shin Okawara et al., and "Special Functional Materials" (1986, CMC). In addition, sensitizers that exhibit absorption in the ultraviolet to near-infrared region can also be included.

[0122] When using the sensitizer (F), the content is preferably 3 to 60 parts by mass, and more preferably 5 to 50 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the photoradical polymerization initiator contained in the colored composition, and more preferably 5 to 50 parts by mass from the viewpoint of photocurability and developability.

[0123] <Thiol-based chain transfer agent (G)> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention preferably contains a thiol-based chain transfer agent. By using thiols together with a photopolymerization initiator, thiyl radicals are generated in the radical polymerization process after light irradiation that act as chain transfer agents and are less susceptible to polymerization inhibition by oxygen, resulting in a highly sensitive colored composition.

[0124] Furthermore, polyfunctional aliphatic thiols bonded to aliphatic groups such as methylene or ethylene groups, which have two or more SH groups, are preferred. More preferably, polyfunctional aliphatic thiols with four or more SH groups are preferred. Increasing the number of functional groups improves the polymerization initiation function, allowing curing from the surface of the pattern to near the substrate.

[0125] Examples of polyfunctional thiols include hexanedithiol, decanedithiol, 1,4-butanediol bisthiopropionate, 1,4-butanediol bisthioglycolate, ethylene glycol bisthioglycolate, ethylene glycol bisthiopropionate, trimethylolpropane tristhioglycolate, trimethylolpropane tristhiopropionate, trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptobutyrate), pentaerythritol tetrakisthioglycolate, and pen Examples include tetraerythritol tetrakisthiopropionate, tris(2-hydroxyethyl) isocyanurate trimercaptopropionate, 1,4-dimethylmercaptobenzene, 2,4,6-trimercapto-s-triazine, and 2-(N,N-dibutylamino)-4,6-dimercapto-s-triazine. Preferably, examples include ethylene glycol bisthiopropionate, trimethylolpropane tristhiopropionate, and pentaerythritol tetrakisthiopropionate.

[0126] These thiol-based chain transfer agents can be used individually or in combination of two or more.

[0127] Furthermore, the content of the thiol-based chain transfer agent is preferably 0.1 to 2 parts by mass, and more preferably 0.2 to 1 part by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the coloring agent. Within this range, the effect of the chain transfer agent is enhanced, resulting in improved sensitivity, tapered shape, wrinkles, film shrinkage, and other properties.

[0128] <Polymerization inhibitor (H)> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention may contain a polymerization inhibitor to prevent photosensitivity due to diffracted light from the mask during exposure.

Examples include alkylresorcinol compounds such as cyrrresorcinol, 4-n-butylresorcinol, 2-tert-butylresorcinol, and 4-tert-butylresorcinol; alkylhydroquinone compounds such as methylhydroquinone, ethylhydroquinone, propylhydroquinone, tert-butylhydroquinone, and 2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone; phosphine compounds such as tributylphosphine, trioctylphosphine, tricyclohexylphosphine, triphenylphosphine, and tripenzylphosphine; phosphine oxide compounds such as trioctylphosphine oxide and triphenylphosphine oxide; phosphite compounds such as triphenylphosphine and trisnonylphenylphosphine; pyrogallol and phloroglucin.

[0130] The polymerization inhibitor (H) content is preferably 0.01 to 0.4 parts by mass of the nonvolatile content of the photosensitive coloring composition. Including an appropriate amount makes it easier to obtain a good pattern shape.

[0131] <UV absorber (I)> The photosensitive colored composition of the invention may contain an ultraviolet absorber (I). The ultraviolet absorber (I) in the present invention is an organic compound having an ultraviolet absorption function, and examples include benzotriazole organic compounds, triazine organic compounds, benzophenone organic compounds, salicylate organic compounds, cyanoacrylate organic compounds, and salicylate organic compounds.

[0132] The amount of UV absorber (I) is preferably 5 to 70% by mass of the total mass of the photopolymerization initiator and UV absorber. Including an appropriate amount further improves the resolution after development.

[0133] Furthermore, the total content of the photopolymerization initiator (D) and the ultraviolet absorber (I) is preferably 1 to 20% by mass of the nonvolatile content of the photosensitive colored composition.

[0141] <Antioxidant (J)> Photosensitive colored compositions may contain antioxidants. Antioxidants prevent the film formed from the photosensitive colored composition from yellowing due to oxidation during thermal processes such as heat curing and ITO annealing, and suppress the decrease in the film's transmittance. In particular, when the colorant concentration of the photosensitive colored composition is high, the content of photopolymerizable compound (D) decreases relatively, so increasing the amount of photopolymerization initiator or adding thermosetting compounds can easily cause the film to yellow. Therefore, including antioxidants can prevent yellowing due to oxidation during the heating process and suppress the decrease in the film's transmittance.

[0142] Antioxidant (J) is a compound having radical scavenging or peroxide decomposition functions.

[0166] When the photosensitive colored composition of the present invention contains a surfactant, the amount of surfactant added is preferably 0.001 to 2.0% by mass, and more preferably 0.005 to 1.0% by mass, relative to the total non-volatile content of the composition of the present invention. Within this range, a good balance is achieved between the applicability, pattern adhesion, and transmittance of the colored composition. The photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention may contain only one type of surfactant or two or more types. If two or more types are included, it is preferable that their total amount be within the above range.

[0167] <Storage stabilizer (L)> The colored composition of the present invention may contain a storage stabilizer to stabilize the viscosity of the composition over time.

[0168] <Adhesion enhancer (M)> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention may contain adhesion-enhancing agents such as silane coupling agents to improve adhesion to the substrate.

[0169] Adhesion enhancers (M) include vinylsilanes such as vinyltrimethoxysilane and vinyltriethoxysilane, (meth)acryloxysilanes such as 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, and 3-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, epoxysilanes such as 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, and 3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane, N-2-(aminoethyl)-3-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, and N-2-(aminoethyl)- Examples of silane coupling agents include aminosilanes such as 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-triethoxysilyl-N-(1,3-dimethylbutylidene)propylamine, N-phenyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, and hydrochloride salts of N-(vinylbenzyl)-2-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane; mercaptos such as 3-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane and 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane; styryls such as p-styryltrimethoxysilane; ureidos such as 3-ureidopropyltriethoxysilane; sulfides such as bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide; and isocyanates such as 3-isocyanatetopropyltriethoxysilane. The adhesion enhancer can be used in an amount of 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, preferably 0.05 to 5 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the coloring agent in the coloring composition. This range is preferable because it provides a greater effect and a good balance of adhesion, resolution, and sensitivity.

[0170] <Method for producing a photosensitive colored composition> A photosensitive colored composition can be produced by, for example, dispersing a colorant (A), a dispersion resin (B1), etc. to create a colorant dispersion. Then, the colorant dispersion, an alkali-soluble resin (B2), a polymerizable compound (C), and a photopolymerization initiator (D), etc., are blended and mixed. The blending materials and the timing of blending are arbitrary. Furthermore, the dispersion process can be performed multiple times.

[0171] The aforementioned dispersion process can be carried out using a dispersion device such as a kneader, a two-roll mill, a three-roll mill, a ball mill, a horizontal sand mill, a vertical sand mill, an annular bead mill, or an attritor.

[0172] <Removal of coarse particles> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention is preferably subjected to the removal of coarse particles of 5 μm or larger, preferably 1 μm or larger, and more preferably 0.5 μm or larger, as well as any impurities, by means of centrifugal separation, filtration using a sintered filter or a membrane filter. Thus, the colored composition is preferably substantially free of particles of 0.5 μm or larger. More preferably, the particles are 0.3 μm or smaller.

[0173] <Moisture content in photosensitive colored composition> The photosensitive colored composition of the present invention preferably contains 2% by mass or less of water.

[0174] If the water content of the photosensitive coloring composition is within the above range, it exhibits excellent dispersion stability and sensitivity even after storage over time.

[0175] The water content in the photosensitive colored composition is preferably 1.8% by mass or less, and more preferably 1.6% by mass or less. If the water content is sufficiently low within this range, problems with dispersion stability and sensitivity are unlikely to occur even after storage over time.

[0176] There are no particular restrictions on the method for controlling the water content, and known methods can be used. For example, methods include manufacturing the photosensitive colored composition while blowing in a dry inert gas, or adding molecular sieves after manufacturing to dehydrate the mixture. Among these, the method of manufacturing while blowing in a dry inert gas is preferred.

[0177] The water content can be measured by known methods such as the Karl Fischer method.

[0178] <Amount of toluene in photosensitive colored composition> The photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention may contain toluene, and if so, the toluene content is preferably 0.1 to 10 ppm by mass. The upper limit of the toluene content is preferably 9 ppm by mass or less, more preferably 8 ppm by mass or less, and even more preferably 7 ppm by mass or less. The lower limit is preferably 0.2 ppm by mass or more, more preferably 0.3 ppm by mass or more, and even more preferably 0.4 ppm by mass or more.

[0179] <Color Filter> The color filter of the present invention preferably has filter segments formed from a photosensitive colored composition. The color filter preferably has red, green, and blue filter segments by appropriately selecting the type of colorant (A) used. Alternatively, the color filter may have complementary magenta, cyan, and yellow filter segments instead of these color filter segments. A reflective substrate can be used instead of a transparent substrate. A transparent substrate is, for example, a glass substrate. A reflective substrate is, for example, a substrate using aluminum electrodes or a thin metal film as the reflective surface. Each color filter can form a color filter segment with high color separation by reducing transmission outside the wavelength range of the target color, thereby suppressing mixing with other colors. For example, with a blue color filter, it is preferable to reduce the transmittance of wavelengths in the visible range other than around 380-490 nm. Similarly, with a green color filter, it is preferable to reduce the transmittance of wavelengths in the visible range other than around 490-590 nm. Furthermore, taking a red color filter as an example, it is preferable to have low transmittance at wavelengths in the visible range other than around 590-780 nm. In order to improve color separation between each color filter, the minimum transmittance of each color filter in the 380-780 nm range is preferably less than 2.5%, and most preferably less than 1.0%.

[0180] <How to manufacture color filters> In color filters, it is preferable to first form a black matrix on the substrate, and then form the filter segments. Alternatively, thin-film transistors (TFTs) can be formed on the substrate beforehand, and then the black matrix can be formed. Examples of black matrices include multilayer films of chromium or chromium / chromium oxide, inorganic films such as titanium nitride, and resin films in which light-shielding agents are dispersed.

[0181] Filter segments can be fabricated by methods such as printing, electrodeposition, transfer, inkjet, and photolithography. This specification describes the most preferred method: photolithography.

[0182] Photolithography involves, for example, applying a photosensitive colored composition containing a colorant of a certain tone onto a transparent substrate to form a film with a dry film thickness of approximately 0.2 to 5 μm. The resulting film (hereinafter referred to as the first film) is exposed (irradiated with light) through a mask having a predetermined pattern. Next, development is performed by immersion in a solvent or alkaline developer or by spraying the developer, removing uncured portions and obtaining the desired pattern. By performing this process similarly with photosensitive colored compositions containing colorants of other tones, color filters having filter segments of each color can be manufactured. Furthermore, a second film (oxygen barrier film) can be formed on the first film before exposure using polyvinyl alcohol or a water-soluble acrylic resin. This prevents the first film from coming into contact with oxygen, thus improving its exposure sensitivity. Additionally, the color filter can be heated to cure any uncured photopolymerizable compounds in the filter segments.

[0183] Coating equipment includes, for example, spray coating, spin coating, slit coating, and roll coating. A drying process can be performed during coating. Drying equipment includes, for example, a hot air oven and an infrared heater.

[0184] The developer can be an alkaline developer, for example, an inorganic alkali such as sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide; or an organic alkali such as dimethylbenzylamine or triethanolamine. Furthermore, the developer may contain defoaming agents or surfactants.

[0185] The color filter of the present invention is bonded to a counter substrate using a sealant, liquid crystal is injected through an injection port provided in the sealed portion, the injection port is sealed, and a polarizing film or phase difference film is bonded to the outside of the substrate as needed to manufacture a color liquid crystal display device. This color liquid crystal display device can be used in liquid crystal display modes that perform colorization using color filters such as twisted nematic (TN), super-twisted nematic (STN), in-plane switching (IPS), vertically aligned (VA), and optically convened bend (OCB).

[0186] In this specification, color filters can be used in applications other than liquid crystal displays, such as solid-state image sensors, organic EL displays, quantum dot displays, electronic paper, and head-mounted displays.

[0187] <Solid-state image sensor> The solid-state image sensor of the present invention includes a color filter. One example of an embodiment used in a solid-state image sensor is an embodiment in which a substrate has a plurality of photodiodes that constitute the light-receiving area of ​​a solid-state image sensor (CCD image sensor, CMOS image sensor, or organic CMOS image sensor, etc.), and a light-receiving element made of polysilicon or the like, and the color filter of the present invention is provided on the side of the light-receiving element formation surface or on the opposite side of the formation surface.

[0188] <Liquid crystal display device> The image display device described herein includes a color filter. Preferably, the image display device further includes a light source. A liquid crystal display device is described as an example of an image display device. A liquid crystal display device comprises a color filter and a light source. Examples of light sources include cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) and white LEDs, but in the present invention, it is preferable to use a white LED because it expands the red color reproduction range. Figure 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a liquid crystal display device 10 equipped with the color filter of the present invention. The device 10 shown in Figure 1 comprises a pair of transparent substrates 11 and 21 arranged spaced apart and facing each other, with liquid crystal LC sealed between them.

[0189] Liquid crystal (LC) is oriented according to the driving mode, such as TN (Twisted Nematic), STN (Super Twisted Nematic), IPS (In-Plane Switching), VA (Vertical Alignment), and OCB (Optically Compensated Birefringence). A TFT (Thin Film Transistor) array 12 is formed on the inner surface of the first transparent substrate 11, and a transparent electrode layer 13 made of, for example, ITO is formed on top of it. An alignment layer 14 is provided on top of the transparent electrode layer 13. In addition, a polarizing plate 15 is formed on the outer surface of the transparent substrate 11.

[0190] On the other hand, the color filter 22 of the present invention is formed on the inner surface of the second transparent substrate 21. The red, green, and blue filter segments constituting the color filter 22 are separated by a black matrix (not shown).

[0196] The present invention will be described below with reference to examples. In the examples, "parts" and "%" refer to "parts by mass" and "mass%", respectively.

[0197] The weight-average molecular weight (Mw), number-average molecular weight (Mn), acid value (mgKOH / g), amine value (mgKOH / g), and ammonium salt value (mgKOH / g) for resins such as resin (B) and resins used to produce dyes are as follows.

[0198] <Non-volatile content, Non-volatile content concentration> In this invention, non-volatile content refers to the mass residue after standing in an oven at 200°C for 30 minutes.

[0199] <Weight average molecular weight (Mw), number average molecular weight (Mn)> The number-average molecular weight (Mn) and weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of the resin were measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) equipped with a radioisotope detector. An HLC-8220GPC (Tosoh Corporation) was used, with two separation columns connected in series. Both columns were packed with two TSK-GEL SUPER HZM-N columns. Measurements were performed at an oven temperature of 40°C, using THF solution as the eluent, and a flow rate of 0.35 ml / min. The sample was dissolved in a solvent consisting of 1% by mass of the above eluent, and 20 microliters were injected. All molecular weights are polystyrene equivalents.

[0200] <Acid value (mgKOH / g)> 0.5 to 1 g of resin solution was mixed with 80 ml of acetone and 10 ml of water and stirred to dissolve uniformly. A 0.1 mol / L aqueous KOH solution was used as the titrant, and the solution was titrated using an automatic titrator ("COM-555," manufactured by Hiranuma Sangyo Co., Ltd.) to measure the acid value (mgKOH / g) of the resin solution. The acid value per unit of non-volatile content of the resin was then calculated from the acid value of the resin solution and the concentration of non-volatile content of the resin solution.

[0201] <Ammonium salt value (mgKOH / g)> The ammonium salt value is determined by titrating with a 0.1N silver nitrate solution using a 5% potassium chromate aqueous solution as an indicator, and then converted to the equivalent amount of potassium hydroxide. This value represents the ammonium salt value of the non-volatile portion.

Next, after the substrate with the coated film was cooled to room temperature, radiation containing wavelengths of 365 nm, 405 nm, and 436 nm was applied to the coating film at a rate of 1,000 J / m² using a high-pressure mercury lamp via a striped photomask. 2 The substrate was exposed to light at the specified exposure level. Subsequently, after alkaline development, it was washed with ultrapure water, and then post-baked at 230°C for 20 minutes to form stripe-shaped pixels with a film thickness of 0.5 μm on the substrate. The spectral transmittance of the stripe-shaped pixels at 380-780 nm under a C light source was then measured and evaluated using a micro-spectrophotometer (Olympus Optical Co., Ltd. "OSP-SP100"). ◎: Minimum transmittance of less than 1.0% in the 380-780nm range (extremely good) ○: Minimum transmittance between 380 and 780 nm is 1.0% or higher and less than 2.5% (good). △: Minimum transmittance between 2.5% and 5.0% in the 380-780nm range (practical). ×: Minimum transmittance of 5.0% or higher in the 380-780nm range (not practical)
