[0020] The polymerizable composition of the present invention has excellent storage stability and enables high-precision patterning, while having excellent low-temperature curing properties that have been difficult to obtain in the past, contributing to energy saving in the manufacturing process. In addition, since it can be applied to members with poor heat resistance, it is useful as a patterning material for OLEDs and quantum dot devices. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0021] The polymerizable composition of the present invention will be described in detail below based on preferred embodiments. The polymerizable composition of the present invention contains a tertiary amine compound or a salt thereof (A), a cyclic ether compound (B), an alkali-developable resin (C), a polymerization initiator (D), and a compound having an active hydrogen capable of reacting with the cyclic ether compound (E).
[0022] The present inventors have intensively studied a configuration that provides low-temperature curing in a polymerizable composition having a cyclic ether compound, an alkali-developable resin, and a polymerization initiator. As a result, it has been surprisingly found that by using a specific amine compound and a compound having active hydrogen capable of reacting with the cyclic ether compound in combination, high-definition patterning is possible, and remarkable low-temperature curing properties that have been difficult to obtain in the past can be obtained while maintaining storage stability. The present invention enables energy saving in the manufacturing process and application of non-heat-resistant members that have not been possible in the past, for example, in black column spacer applications, black matrix applications, and color resist applications, since the curing temperature, which has conventionally been required at 200 to 250°C, can be reduced to about 100°C. Each component will be described in turn below.
[0023] <Tertiary amine compound or its salt (A)> In the present invention, a tertiary amine compound refers to a compound in which one nitrogen atom is bonded to three different carbon atoms.

For the same reason, as the (A) component, a heterocyclic aromatic tertiary amine compound or its salt is more preferable, an azole heterocyclic aromatic compound or its salt is even more preferable, and an imidazole compound or its salt is particularly preferable. A suitable example of a tertiary amine compound that is an imidazole compound is a compound in which a hydrocarbon group or the like is bonded to one of the two nitrogen atoms on the imidazole ring and is not bonded to the other nitrogen atom. The hydrocarbon group or the like is a group that is bonded to the nitrogen atom of the imidazole ring through a carbon atom, and examples thereof include a heterocyclic group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, a group containing a heterocycle having 3 to 20 carbon atoms, a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, or a group in which one or more methylene groups in a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms are substituted with a divalent group selected from the following <Group A>.

[0072] The oxetanyl equivalent of the oxetane compound may be any one that provides the desired pattern definition, storage stability, and low-temperature curing properties, but in terms of a balance with availability, etc., it is preferably 80 g / eq. or more and 500 g / eq. or less, and more preferably 100 g / eq. or more and 300 g / eq. or less.
[0073] (3)Other In one embodiment of the composition of the present invention, the molecular weight of the cyclic ether compound is not particularly limited as long as the desired curability and the like can be obtained, and may be, for example, from 50 to 20,000. From the viewpoints of the balance between the storage stability and low-temperature curability of the composition as well as the ease of application and adhesion of the composition, the molecular weight is more preferably from 100 to 2,000, and even more preferably from 200 to 1,500.
[0074] When the compound is a polymer, the molecular weight is the weight-average molecular weight (Mw). The weight-average molecular weight can be determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) using standard polystyrene as the conversion value.
[0075] The weight average molecular weight can be measured, for example, using a GPC (LC-2000plus series) manufactured by JASCO Corporation, using tetrahydrofuran as an elution solvent, polystyrene standards for calibration curves of Mw 1,110,000, 707,000, 397,000, 189,000, 98,900, 37,200, 13,700, 9,490, 5,430, 3,120, 1,010, and 589 (TSKgel standard polystyrene manufactured by Tosoh Corporation), and measuring columns of KF-804, KF-803, and KF-802 (manufactured by Showa Denko K.K.). The measurement temperature can be 40° C., and the flow rate can be 1.0 mL / min.
[0076] The number of cyclic ether groups in the cyclic ether compound can be appropriately set according to the desired curability, etc. The number of cyclic ether groups may be 1 or more per molecule of the cyclic ether compound, but can be 2 to 10, preferably 2 to 8, and most preferably 3 or more. This is because a composition using such a cyclic ether compound can easily produce a cured product with a high-definition pattern and has good reactivity during curing.
[0077] In particular, in one embodiment of the polymerizable composition of the present invention, it is preferable to contain an epoxy compound as the cyclic ether component, because the composition can be more easily patterned with high definition and can easily achieve low temperature curing properties.
[0078] Furthermore, as an embodiment of the composition of the present invention, it is preferable that the cyclic ether component contains a glycidyl type epoxy compound having a glycidyl group as an epoxy compound. This is because the composition is easy to obtain low temperature curing properties and has excellent pattern definition. In particular, the epoxy compound may contain a glycidyl ether group, a glycidyl amino group, or a diglycidyl amino group as a glycidyl group.
[0079] In one embodiment of the composition of the present invention, as described above, the cyclic ether compound preferably contains a glycidyl-type epoxy compound. In order to enhance the effect of containing the glycidyl-type epoxy compound, the proportion of the glycidyl-type epoxy compound in 100 parts by mass of the cyclic ether compound is preferably 40 parts by mass or more, more preferably 60 parts by mass or more, and particularly preferably 80 parts by mass or more.
[0080] According to the present invention, the content of the cyclic ether compound (B) is preferably from 2 to 30 parts by mass, and more preferably from 5 to 20 parts by mass, relative to 100 parts by mass of the alkali-developable resin (C), because the composition has an excellent balance between storage stability and low-temperature curing property, making it easier to obtain a high-definition pattern.
[0081] From the viewpoint of a balance between the storage stability and low-temperature curing property of the composition, and the ease of obtaining a high-resolution pattern, the content of the cyclic ether component is preferably 1 part by mass or more and 30 parts by mass or less, more preferably 2 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 3 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the solid content of the composition (excluding the colorant). Moreover, the solid content in the present invention refers to the content excluding the solvent described later.
[0082] <Alkaline developable resin (C)> The alkali developable resin (C) according to the present invention is a compound having a carboxy group and a polymerizable group. Examples of the polymerizable group include radical polymerizable groups such as acrylic, methacrylic, and vinyl groups, isocyanate groups, and hydroxyl groups. The radical polymerizable groups are preferred due to their high sensitivity, and acrylic groups are particularly preferred.
[0083] In addition, compounds corresponding to the tertiary amine compound or its salt (A) are not considered to be alkaline developable resins (C), and compounds corresponding to the cyclic ether compound (B) are not considered to be alkaline developable resins (C). In the present invention, any compound that has been conventionally used can be used as the alkaline developable resin (C) as long as it satisfies the above conditions.
[0084] The preferred functional group equivalent of the carboxy group in the alkali developable resin (C) (the mass of the polymer compound containing 1 equivalent of a hydrophilic group) is 50 to 10,000. The weight average molecular weight of the alkali developable resin (C) is preferably 1,000 to 500,000, and it is preferable to use an alkali developable resin having a weight average molecular weight of 3,000 or more, and more preferably an alkali developable compound having a weight average molecular weight of 4,000 to 15,000. Such a weight average molecular weight is particularly preferable when the polymerizable composition of the present invention is used as a BCS, particularly as a black partition wall of an organic EL device, because it can verticalize the pattern shape, improve the development adhesion, and improve the heat resistance. In particular, as the unsaturated compound having such a molecular weight, it is preferable that the unsaturated compound has a structure obtained by esterification reaction between an epoxy addition compound having a structure in which an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy compound represented by the above formula (II) and a polybasic acid anhydride.
[0085] The weight average molecular weight can be measured by the following method. Using GPC (Hitachi, model number: ELITE LaChrom L-2000, columns: KF-805, 804, 803 connected), and using chloroform as the developing solvent, a calibration curve is created using standard polystyrene of known molecular weight (molecular weight distribution = 1). Based on this calibration curve, the weight average molecular weight is calculated from the GPC retention time.
[0086] The alkali developable resin (C) has an acid value of preferably 10 to 200 mg / KOH, more preferably 30 to 150 mg / KOH. When the acid value is 10 mg / KOH or more, sufficient alkali developability is easily obtained, and when it is 200 mg / KOH or less, the polymer compound is easily produced. Here, the acid value is based on JIS K0050 and JIS K0211.
[0087] Specific examples of the alkali-developable resin (C) that can be used include copolymers of acrylic acid esters; phenol and / or cresol novolak epoxy resins, polyphenylmethane-type epoxy resins having polyfunctional epoxy groups, epoxy acrylate resins, and resins (unsaturated compounds) having a structure obtained by an esterification reaction between an epoxy addition compound having a structure in which an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy compound such as the epoxy compound represented by the above formula (II) and a polybasic acid anhydride. Among these, it is preferable to use an alkali-developable compound which is a reaction product obtained by an esterification reaction between an epoxy addition compound having a structure in which an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy compound represented by the above formula (II) and a polybasic acid anhydride, since it is possible to obtain a cured product having a high-definition pattern with excellent insulating properties. Furthermore, an alkali developable resin in which 0.2 to 1.0 equivalent of an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy compound is particularly preferred because it provides a polymerizable composition with high sensitivity.
[0088] An epoxy addition compound having a structure in which an unsaturated monobasic acid is added to an epoxy compound represented by the above formula (II) usually has the following structure [(e)]. Also, a reaction product obtained by an esterification reaction of such an epoxy addition compound with a polybasic acid anhydride usually has the following structure [(f)].

Among these, a chain alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an alkenylene group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, a cycloalkylene group having 3 to 10 carbon atoms, or an arylene group having 6 to 10 carbon atoms is more preferred because they provide good sensitivity when used as the alkali-developable resin (C).

However, the total content is preferably 20 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the total of the above-mentioned components (A) to (G).
[0201] The polymerizable composition of the present invention and its cured product can be used in a wide variety of applications, including curable paints, varnishes, curable adhesives, printed circuit boards, display devices (color filters in liquid crystal display panels for color displays in color televisions, PC monitors, personal digital assistants, digital cameras, etc., color filters for various display applications, color filters in CCD image sensors, touch panels, electroluminescent display devices, plasma display panels, and black partition walls in organic EL), powder coatings, printing inks, printing plates, adhesives, gel coats, photoresists for electronics, electroplating resists, etching resists, solder resists, insulating films, black matrices, and resists for forming structures in the manufacturing process of LCDs, compositions for encapsulating electric and electronic components, solder resists, magnetic recording Materials, micromechanical parts, waveguides, optical switches, plating masks, etching masks, color test systems, glass fiber cable coatings, screen printing stencils, materials for producing three-dimensional objects by stereolithography, holographic recording materials, image recording materials, fine electronic circuits, bleaching materials, bleaching materials for image recording materials, bleaching materials for image recording materials using microcapsules, photoresist materials for printed wiring boards, photoresist materials for UV and visible laser direct imaging systems, photoresist materials and protective films used in forming dielectric layers in the sequential lamination of printed circuit boards, and various other applications, with no particular limitations on the applications, but among the above applications, they can be particularly suitably used in display devices.
[0202] In particular, when the polymerizable composition of the present invention contains a colorant (F), particularly a black pigment, it has photosensitivity and alkali developability, and is a composition that is particularly suitable for forming a BCS. In liquid crystal display devices and organic EL display devices, spacers are used to maintain the distance between the upper and lower substrates of the cell. The spacers are formed by applying a polymerizable composition to a substrate, exposing the composition through a specified mask and display device, and then developing the composition. In recent years, BCS, which integrates column spacers and black matrices into one module and has light-shielding properties, has been used.
[0203] The method for producing a cured product using the polymerizable composition of the present invention will be described in detail below. The polymerizable composition of the present invention can be applied onto a supporting substrate such as soda glass, quartz glass, a semiconductor substrate, metal, paper, plastic, etc., by known means such as a spin coater, a roll coater, a bar coater, a die coater, a curtain coater, various printing methods, immersion, etc. In addition, after being applied onto a supporting substrate such as a film, it can also be transferred onto another supporting substrate, and there is no limitation on the application method.
[0204] The light source of the energy rays used when curing the polymerizable composition of the present invention can be electromagnetic wave energy having a wavelength of 2,000 angstroms to 7,000 angstroms obtained from ultra-high pressure mercury lamps, LEDs, high pressure mercury lamps, medium pressure mercury lamps, low pressure mercury lamps, mercury vapor arc lamps, xenon arc lamps, carbon arc lamps, metal halide lamps, fluorescent lamps, tungsten lamps, excimer lamps, germicidal lamps, light emitting diodes, CRT light sources, etc., as well as high energy rays such as electron beams, X-rays, and radiation. Of these, ultra-high pressure mercury lamps and LEDs emitting light with a wavelength of 300 to 450 nm are preferred because they are highly productive and can produce high quality cured products.
[0205] Furthermore, a laser direct writing method in which an image is formed directly from digital information from a computer or the like without using a mask by using a laser beam as an exposure light source is useful because it can improve not only productivity but also resolution and positional accuracy, and light with a wavelength of 340 to 430 nm is preferably used as the laser beam, but lasers that emit light in the visible to infrared region, such as excimer lasers, nitrogen lasers, argon ion lasers, helium cadmium lasers, helium neon lasers, krypton ion lasers, various semiconductor lasers, and YAG lasers, can also be used. When using these lasers, a sensitizing dye that absorbs light in the relevant visible to infrared region is added.
[0206] The cured product of the present invention is preferably formed by the steps of (1) forming a coating film of the polymerizable composition of the present invention on a substrate, (2) irradiating the coating film with radiation through a mask having a predetermined pattern shape, (3) baking after exposure, (4) developing the coating film after exposure, and (5) heating the coating film after development. As the mask, a multi-tone mask such as a halftone mask or a grayscale mask can also be used.
[0207] The display device of the present invention has the same configuration as a conventionally known display device, except that it is provided with the cured product of the present invention. In particular, when the cured product is BCS, it is preferable that the BCS is provided between cells. EXAMPLES

[0219] [Evaluation of polymerizable composition] The storage stability, plate-making properties (line width), and low-temperature curing properties of the polymerizable compositions of Examples 1 to 19 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were evaluated according to the following procedures. The results are shown in [Tables 1] to [Tables 5].
[0220] <Storage stability> After blending each composition, it was stored at 5-10°C, and the change in development time was evaluated. After 2 weeks of storage, the development time (time for the coating film to dissolve) per 1 μm of film thickness was evaluated in an aqueous solution of 0.4% by mass potassium hydroxide. The development time was rated C for more than 200% of that immediately after production, B for more than 150% and 200%, A for more than 110% and 150%, and S for 110% or less. If the stability is poor, the reaction of the components in the system progresses and the components become polymerized, making it difficult to dissolve, and the development time becomes longer. In general photolithography, C and B cannot be manufactured stably. Those rated S and A are preferably used because they have excellent storage stability, and S and A are preferable, with S being particularly preferable.
[0221] <Plate making (line width)> The polymerizable compositions obtained in Examples 1 to 19 and the comparative polymerizable compositions obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were applied onto a glass substrate (100 mm x 100 mm) using a spin coater and prebaked at 100°C for 100 seconds to obtain a coating film having a thickness of 4 μm. The obtained coating film was irradiated with a dose of 50 mJ / cm using a Proximity Liner (product name: TME-150R, manufactured by Topcon Corporation) as a light source through a 20 μm mask. 2 The exposure was performed at . The exposed coating was developed by immersing in an aqueous solution of 0.4% by mass potassium hydroxide at 25°C for 60 seconds, and thoroughly rinsed with water. After rinsing and drying, it was further baked at 120°C for 30 minutes. It can be judged that the closer the line width of the pattern is to the mask width of 20μm, the more highly precise the patterning is possible. The pattern line width was evaluated as A when it was 19μm or more and less than 21μm, B when it was 18μm or more and less than 19μm or 21μm or more and less than 22μm, and C when it was less than 18μm or 22μm or more.
[0222] <Low temperature curability> The polymerizable compositions obtained in Examples 1 to 19 and the comparative polymerizable compositions obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to 6 were applied onto a glass substrate (100 mm × 100 mm) using a spin coater and prebaked at 100°C for 100 seconds to obtain a coating film having a thickness of 4 μm. The obtained coating film was irradiated with a dose of 50 mJ / cm using a mirror projection aligner (product name: TME-150RAK, manufactured by Topcon Corporation) as a light source through a 20 μm mask. 2 The exposure was performed at . The exposed coating was developed by immersing in a 4% by weight aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide at 25°C for 60 seconds and thoroughly rinsed with water. After rinsing and drying, post-baking (120°C for a specified time) was performed, and the resulting cured product was then immersed in PGMEA at room temperature for 10 minutes to check for any changes such as peeling or a thinner film thickness. The hardened product that showed no change after 30 minutes of post-baking was classified as A, the hardened product that showed a change after 30 minutes of post-baking and no change after 60 minutes of post-baking was classified as B, and the hardened product that showed a change even after 60 minutes of post-baking was classified as C.

[0224] [Table 2]
[0225] [Table 3]
[0226] [Table 4]
[0227] [Table 5]
[0228] As can be seen from the results of Tables 1 to 5, the polymerizable compositions of the examples containing a tertiary amine compound or its salt (A), a cyclic ether compound (B), an alkali-developable resin (C), a polymerization initiator (D), and a compound having active hydrogen capable of reacting with the cyclic ether compound (E) have low-temperature curing properties and storage stability, and are capable of high-definition patterning (excellent plate-making properties). In contrast, Comparative Examples 1, 3, 5, and 6, which do not contain the (A), (B), (D), or (E) components, were poor in low-temperature curing properties (Comparative Examples 1, 3, and 6 did not cure at 120°C). Comparative Examples 5 and 6 also had poor plate-making properties. Furthermore, Comparative Example 2, which used a secondary amine instead of a tertiary amine, was poor in storage stability and plate-making properties, and Comparative Example 4, which did not contain the (C) component, had poor patterns and plate-making properties could not be evaluated.
