Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a photocurable black composition, a cured product of the photocurable black composition, and a black-coated substrate having a cured coating of the photocurable black composition, and in particular to a photocurable black composition that allows alkaline development, a cured product of the photocurable black composition, and a black-coated substrate in which a transparent substrate is coated with the cured coating of the photocurable black composition. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, there is a need to display analog in-vehicle instruments such as speedometers on the instrument panel of a vehicle instead of placing them on a display. In this case, the periphery of the display area in the display is covered with a coating made of black resist, and a black matrix is ​​formed in the display area.

[0003] A colored photosensitive resin composition used to form a black matrix is ​​disclosed, for example, in Patent Document 1. Specifically, Patent Document 1 discloses a colored photosensitive composition that contains a photopolymerizable compound, a photopolymerization initiator, and a colorant as a light-shielding agent in order to ensure light-shielding properties. This colored photosensitive composition forms a black matrix with high light-shielding properties, and by applying it to a color filter, it is possible to improve the contrast of a liquid crystal display and prevent light leakage.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2009-168948 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, the inventors have found through their research that when light hits a display having a coating or black matrix formed of a black resist based on a composition using a conventional colorant such as carbon black or titanium black as shown in Patent Document 1 from the glass side, i.e., from the user side of the display, the light is dimly reflected not only in the area where the light hits but also in the surrounding area, and the area where the light hits and the surrounding area appear dimly white (hereinafter, this phenomenon is also referred to as white blur in this specification). In particular, when a relatively large coating area formed of a black resist is illuminated by a car light or the like inside a vehicle, the white blur becomes noticeable. The occurrence of white blur leads to a deterioration in visibility of the display area and its surroundings.

[0006] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a photocurable black composition for forming a black shielding material that reduces reflection of light irradiated from the user side to a display. [Means for solving the problem]

[0012] It is also preferable to contain a thermosetting component (F).

[0013] Furthermore, the above-mentioned object of the present invention can also be achieved by a cured product of the photocurable black composition of the present invention, and a black-coated substrate comprising a transparent substrate and a cured coating of the photocurable black composition of the present invention. Effect of the Invention

[0014] According to the present invention, a cured coating formed from a photocurable black composition is applied to a transparent substrate, and when the cured coating is irradiated with light through the transparent substrate, reflection of light is suppressed, and therefore the occurrence of white blur on the cured coating can be suppressed, thereby improving visibility when applied to organic or inorganic EL displays, liquid crystal displays, and the like.

[0042] The above-mentioned carboxyl group-containing resins, whether photosensitive or non-photosensitive, have the following characteristics: Since they have many carboxyl groups on the side chains of the backbone polymer, they can be developed with a dilute alkaline aqueous solution.

When the acid value of the carboxyl group-containing resin is 20 mgKOH / g or more, the adhesion of the coating film is good, and the alkaline development is good. On the other hand, when the acid value is 200 mgKOH / g or less, dissolution of the exposed part by the developer can be suppressed, so that the line is prevented from becoming thinner than necessary, and in some cases, the exposed part and the unexposed part are prevented from being dissolved and peeled off by the developer without distinction, and the resist pattern can be drawn well.

When the weight-average molecular weight is 2,000 or more, the tack-free performance is good, the development resistance of the coating film after exposure is good, the film loss during development is suppressed, and the resolution is also good. On the other hand, when the weight-average molecular weight is 150,000 or less, the developability is good and the storage stability is also excellent.

[0045] The amount of such a carboxyl group-containing resin is suitably in the range of 10 to 95% by mass, preferably 10 to 80% by mass, based on the total mass (solid content) of the photocurable black composition. When the amount of the carboxyl group-containing resin is in the range of 10% to 95% by mass based on the total mass (solid content) of the photocurable black composition, the coating strength is good, and the viscosity of the photocurable black composition is appropriate, improving the coatability, etc.

[0046] In the present invention, as the alkali-soluble resin (A), either a photosensitive carboxyl group-containing resin or a carboxyl group-containing resin having no photosensitivity can be used, or a mixture of these can be used.

[0047] The mixing ratio may be any ratio as long as it is adjusted so that the alkali-soluble resin (A) has an ethylenically unsaturated bond equivalent of 1,200 or more.

[0048] The photosensitive carboxyl group-containing resin and the non-photosensitive carboxyl group-containing resin may be other than those described above, and each may be used alone or in combination. Among the carboxyl group-containing resins, resins without aromatic rings are particularly preferred because they have excellent light resistance.

[0049] The phenolic resin may be a compound having a phenolic hydroxyl group, for example, a compound having a biphenyl skeleton or a phenylene skeleton, or both skeletons, or a phenolic hydroxyl group-containing compound, for example, a phenolic resin having various skeletons synthesized using phenol, orthocresol, paracresol, metacresol, 2,3-xylenol, 2,4-xylenol, 2,5-xylenol, 2,6-xylenol, 3,4-xylenol, 3,5-xylenol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, methylhydroquinone, 2,6-dimethylhydroquinone, trimethylhydroquinone, pyrogallol, phloroglucinol, or the like.

[0050] For example, known and commonly used phenolic resins such as phenol novolac resin, alkylphenol volac resin, bisphenol A novolac resin, dicyclopentadiene type phenolic resin, Xylok type phenolic resin, terpene modified phenolic resin, polyvinylphenols, bisphenol F, bisphenol S type phenolic resin, poly-p-hydroxystyrene, condensates of naphthol and aldehydes, and condensates of dihydroxynaphthalene and aldehydes can be used.

[0051] These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0052] Examples of commercially available phenolic resins include HF1H60 (manufactured by Meiwa Kasei Co., Ltd.), Phenolite TD-2090, Phenolite TD-2131 (manufactured by Dai Nippon Printing Co., Ltd.), Besumoru CZ-256-A (manufactured by DIC Corporation), Shounol BRG-555, Shounol BRG-556 (manufactured by Showa Denko KK), CGR-951 (manufactured by Maruzen Oil Co., Ltd.), and polyvinylphenols CST70, CST90, S-1P, and S-2P (manufactured by Maruzen Oil Co., Ltd.). These phenolic resins can be used alone or in appropriate combination of two or more kinds.

[0053] In the present invention, as the alkali-soluble resin (A), either a carboxyl group-containing resin or a phenolic resin, or a mixture of these, may be used as long as it satisfies the conditions that it has an ethylenically unsaturated bond equivalent of 1200 or more or does not have an ethylenically unsaturated group.

[0054] The photocurable black composition used in the present invention further contains the following photopolymerization initiator.

In the case of a two-liquid system, the photopolymerization initiator (B) is blended in a liquid separate from the liquid containing the alkali-soluble resin (A) and the photopolymerizable polyfunctional monomer (C). This is to prevent undesired photopolymerization reactions during storage.

[0128] The photocurable black composition of the present invention can suppress the occurrence of white blur, so that a high-quality display member with improved visibility and a luxurious feel can be obtained. The photocurable black composition of the present invention can also be used to produce shielding images such as printing inks, materials for producing printing proofs, etching resists, solder resists, partitions of organic or inorganic EL display panels, dielectric patterns, electrode (conductor circuit) patterns, wiring patterns of electronic components, conductive pastes, conductive films, black matrices, black seal materials, and black mask materials. In particular, the photocurable black composition of the present invention can be suitably used to provide a light-shielding image (including a black matrix) in the intervals and periphery of a colored pattern and on the external light side of a TFT in order to improve the visibility of a color filter used in a color liquid crystal display device or the like, or as a light-shielding film for a touch panel.

[0129] <Cured product of the photocurable black composition of the present invention, and black-coated substrate> The black coated substrate of the present invention comprises a transparent substrate and a cured coating (cured product) of the photocurable black composition of the present invention applied onto the transparent substrate.

[0130] The transparent substrate is a substrate having a total light transmittance of 50% or more at 400 to 800 nm, and specifically includes a glass substrate or a resin substrate such as polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyimide (PI), etc., and may have a shape ranging from a plate-like shape to a thin film-like shape. The plate-like shape is not limited to a flat plate-like shape, and may be a concave lens or convex lens-like shape, or a curved shape.

[0131] The photocurable black composition of the present invention can be in the form of a dry film obtained by coating on a carrier film (support) and drying. When forming a dry film, the photocurable black composition of the present invention is diluted with the organic solvent to adjust the viscosity to an appropriate level, and coated on a carrier film in a uniform thickness using a comma coater, blade coater, lip coater, rod coater, squeeze coater, reverse coater, transfer roll coater, gravure coater, spray coater, or the like, and usually dried at a temperature of 50 to 130° C. for 1 to 30 minutes to form a dry coating film. There is no particular restriction on the coating film thickness, but it is generally appropriately selected within the range of 0.1 to 100 μm, preferably 0.5 to 50 μm, in terms of the film thickness after drying.

[0132] As the carrier film, a plastic film is used, and it is preferable to use a plastic film such as a polyester film such as polyethylene terephthalate, a polyimide film, a polyamideimide film, a polypropylene film, a polystyrene film, etc. There is no particular limitation on the thickness of the carrier film, but it is generally appropriately selected in the range of 0.1 to 150 μm.

[0133] In this case, after forming the coating film on the carrier film, it is preferable to further laminate a peelable cover film on the surface of the coating film for the purpose of preventing dust from adhering to the surface of the coating film, etc. As the peelable cover film, for example, a polyethylene film, a polytetrafluoroethylene film, a polypropylene film, surface-treated paper, etc. can be used, and it is sufficient that the adhesive strength between the coating film and the cover film is smaller than the adhesive strength between the coating film and the carrier film when the cover film is peeled off.

[0134] In addition, the photocurable black composition of the present invention is adjusted to a viscosity suitable for the coating method using the organic solvent, and then coated on a transparent substrate by a method such as spray coating, dip coating, flow coating, roll coating, bar coating, screen printing, curtain coating, or die coating, and the organic solvent contained in the composition is evaporated and dried (pre-dried) at a temperature of about 50° C. to 90° C., thereby forming a tack-free dry coating film. In addition, in the case of a dry film obtained by coating the photocurable black composition of the present invention on a carrier film, drying, and winding it up as a film, this is laminated on a transparent substrate by a laminator or the like so that the coating film of the photocurable black composition contacts the transparent substrate, and then peeling off the carrier film, thereby forming a coating layer on the substrate.

[0135] A cured coating can be obtained by photocuring these coating films, for example, by irradiation with active energy rays, and when a thermosetting component (F) is further contained, by heat curing at a temperature of 100° C. to 250° C. That is, a black-coated substrate is obtained, which has a transparent substrate and a cured coating (cured product) of the photocurable black composition of the present invention applied onto the transparent substrate.

[0136] The volatilization drying carried out after application of the photocurable black composition of the present invention can be carried out by a method of counter-contacting hot air in a dryer equipped with a heat source of an air heating type using steam, such as a hot air circulation drying oven, an IR oven, a hot plate, or a convection oven, or by a method of spraying the composition onto a support from a nozzle.

[0137] The exposure machine used for the active energy ray irradiation may be any machine equipped with a high pressure mercury lamp, an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp, a metal halide lamp, a mercury short arc lamp, or the like, and capable of irradiating ultraviolet rays in the range of 350 to 450 nm. In addition, a direct imaging machine (for example, a direct imaging machine that directly irradiates active energy rays to draw an image based on CAD data from a computer) may also be used. The light source of the direct imaging machine may be any machine that uses light with a maximum wavelength in the range of 350 to 410 nm. The exposure dose for forming an image varies depending on the film thickness, etc., but is generally 20 to 1000 mJ / cm. 2 , preferably 20 to 800 mJ / cm 2 The range may be:

[0138] The developing method may be a dipping method, a shower method, a spray method, a brush method, or the like, and the developing solution may be an alkaline aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium phosphate, sodium silicate, ammonia, amines, or the like.

Preparation of the cured coating (cured product)" was attached to a transmission densitometer (X-Rite 361T, manufactured by Sakata Inx Engineering Co., Ltd.) to evaluate the OD value. The black-coated substrate was attached to the transmission densitometer with the glass substrate side facing the light source.

[0146] 2-3. Reflectance (Y value) SCE / SCI (%) For the black coated substrate formed in "2-1. Creation of the cured coating (cured product)", the Y value of the XYZ color system was measured using a color difference meter (CM-2600d (light source wavelength: 360-740 nm), manufactured by Konica Minolta). The Y value was measured using the SCE (specular reflected light excluded) method, which is an evaluation of color close to that seen with the naked eye because specular reflected light is removed and only diffuse reflected light is measured, and the SCI (specular reflected light included) method, which is an evaluation of the color of the material itself regardless of the surface condition because specular reflected light is included in the measurement. The measurements were performed on the glass substrate surface of the black coated substrate.

[0147] It can be said that the lower the reflectance (Y value) SCE / SCI (%), the more the occurrence of white blur is suppressed.

[0148] 2-4.Resolution A black coated substrate was formed under the same conditions as those in "2-1. Preparation of cured coating (cured product)" except that a negative pattern with a line width of 20 to 300 μm in the light-shielding portion was used during exposure.

[0149] For each of the black coated substrates formed in Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, the width of the linear cured product remaining on the glass substrate was measured, and the smallest width among the remaining linear cured products was recorded as an evaluation item for resolution (L / S). The smaller the resolution (L / S) width, the better the resolution that allows the formation of finer lines, which is evaluated as the photocurable black composition.

[0150] 2-5.Developability A black coated substrate was formed under the same conditions as those in "2-1. Preparation of cured coating (cured product)" except that a negative pattern with a line width of 20 to 300 μm in the light-shielding portion was used during exposure.

[0151] For each of the black-coated substrates formed in Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3, the area on the glass substrate that was covered by the light-shielding portion of the negative pattern, was left unexposed, and was developed with alkali. The area was visually observed to evaluate whether development residue was observed. The evaluation criteria were as follows. ◎: No residue was observed. ○: Some residue was observed. ×: Residue was observed throughout the entire surface.

[0152] 2-6. Tackiness Each of the photocurable black compositions of Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 was applied to the entire surface of a glass substrate by screen printing, dried in a hot air circulation type drying oven at 90°C for 30 minutes, and cooled to room temperature. A PET film was pressed onto the glass substrate on which the photocurable black composition was applied, and then the film was peeled off to evaluate the adhesion state of the film. The evaluation criteria are as follows. : The film does not stick at all. ○: The film sticks slightly, but no pressure marks remain on the ink. △: Pressure marks from the film remain on the ink. ×: Ink transfers to the film.

[0153] Table 2 below shows the evaluation results of OD value (optical density), reflectance, resolution, developability and tackiness.

[0154] [Table 2]

[0155] As shown in Table 2, the reflectance (Y value) SCE / SCI (%) of Examples 1 and 2 is very small compared to Comparative Examples 1 and 2. This indicates that the nitrogen adsorption specific surface area is 300 m 2 It can be seen that white blur is suppressed when carbon black having a carbon black content of 1000 ppm or more is used. In addition, since Example 1 has improved tackiness compared to Example 5, it can be seen that the incorporation of (E) an ester of cellulose and a short-chain fatty acid improves tackiness.
