[0030] In addition to being able to suppress the decrease in the ultraviolet curability of a film containing a zinc phthalocyanine halide pigment (A1) that tends to absorb ultraviolet rays by including a metal azo pigment (A2), an unexpected effect of being able to suppress the formation of an inverse taper pattern was found.

[0031] <Fine particle size of pigment> After the organic pigment has been subjected to a fine particle size treatment, it is preferably mixed with other raw materials. Examples of the fine particle size treatment method include wet grinding, dry grinding, solution precipitation method, and the like. Among these, salt milling treatment by a kneader method, which is a kind of wet grinding, is preferable. The average primary particle size of the organic pigment after the fine particle size treatment is preferably 10 to 80 nm, more preferably 15 to 70 nm. With an appropriate particle size, the dispersibility is further improved and the contrast ratio of the film is further improved. The average primary particle size is the average value of about 20 particles arbitrarily selected from the enlarged image of a TEM (transmission electron microscope). When there are a longitudinal axis length and a transverse axis length of the particle, the longitudinal axis length is used.

[0032] Salt milling treatment is a process in which a mixture of a pigment, a water-soluble inorganic salt, and a water-soluble organic solvent is mechanically kneaded while being heated using a batch-type or continuous kneader such as a kneader, a two-roll mill, a three-roll mill, a ball mill, an attritor, a sand mill, a planetary mixer, etc., and then the water-soluble inorganic salt and the water-soluble organic solvent are removed by washing with water. 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 the salt milling treatment of the pigment, it is possible to obtain a pigment having a very fine primary particle diameter, a narrow distribution width, and a sharp particle size distribution.

[0033] Examples of the water-soluble inorganic salt include sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium sulfate, etc. Among these, sodium chloride (table salt) is preferable from the viewpoint of price.

The water-soluble organic solvent is a compound that dissolves (mixes) in water and does not substantially dissolve the water-soluble inorganic salt. As the water-soluble organic solvent, a high-boiling solvent having a boiling point of 120°C or higher is preferable in that it is difficult to volatilize due to the temperature rise during salt milling. Examples of the water-soluble organic solvent include 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. The amount of the water-soluble organic solvent used is preferably 5 to 1000 parts by mass, more preferably 50 to 500 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the pigment.

[0035] During the salt milling process, resin can be added as needed. Examples of the resin include natural resins, modified natural resins, synthetic resins, synthetic resins modified with natural resins, and the like. The resin is preferably solid at room temperature, water-insoluble, and more preferably partially soluble in a water-soluble organic solvent. The amount of the resin used is preferably 5 to 200 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the pigment. <Dye> Examples of the dye include acid dyes, direct dyes, basic dyes, salt-forming dyes, oil-soluble dyes, disperse dyes, reactive dyes, mordant dyes, building dyes, sulfur dyes, and the like.

Also preferred is a salt-forming compound that is a salt of a resin component having these functional groups and an acid dye. Further, the salt-forming compound can easily obtain a photosensitive coloring composition excellent in resistance (light resistance, solvent resistance) by sulfonamidation and modification into a sulfonic acid amide compound. Also preferred is a salt-forming compound of an acid dye and a compound having an onium base because it is excellent in resistance (light resistance, solvent resistance). The compound having an onium base is preferably a resin having a cationic group.

[0037] Examples of the basic dye include salt-forming compounds with organic acids, perchloric acid, or metal salts thereof. Among the salt-forming compounds, the salt-forming compounds of basic dyes are preferred because they are excellent in various resistances and compatibility with pigments.

[0038] The chemical structure of the dye includes, for example, azo dyes, disazo dyes, azomethine dyes (such as indoaniline dyes, indophenol dyes, etc.), dipyrromethene dyes, quinone dyes (such as benzoquinone dyes, naphthoquinone dyes, anthraquinone dyes, anthrapyridone dyes, etc.), carbonium dyes (such as diphenylmethane dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, xanthene dyes, acridine dyes, etc.), quinoneimine dyes (such as oxazine dyes, thiazine dyes, etc.), azine dyes, polymethine dyes (such as oxonol dyes, merocyanine dyes, arylidene 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, etc. Among these, from the viewpoints of color characteristics such as hue, color separation property, and color unevenness, azo dyes, xanthene dyes, cyanine dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, anthraquinone dyes, dipyrromethene dyes, squarylium dyes, quinophthalone dyes, phthalocyanine dyes, and subphthalocyanine dyes are preferable, and xanthene dyes, cyanine dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, anthraquinone dyes, dipyrromethene dyes, and phthalocyanine dyes are more preferable. The specific structures of the dyes are described in "New Edition Dye Handbook" (edited by The Society of Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Japan; Maruzen, 1970), "Color Index" (The Society of Dyers and colourists), "Dye Handbook" (edited by Oikawa et al.; Kodansha, 1986), etc.

[0039] <Dye derivative> The photosensitive coloring composition can use a dye derivative as needed. The dye derivative is a compound having an acidic group, a basic group, a neutral group, etc. in an organic dye residue. Examples of the dye derivative include compounds having an acidic substituent such as a sulfo group, a carboxy group, or a phosphoric acid group, and amine salts thereof, compounds having a basic substituent such as a sulfonamide group or a tertiary amino group at the terminal, and compounds having a neutral substituent such as a phenyl group or a phthalimidoalkyl group.

The pigment derivatives described in these documents include derivatives, pigment derivatives, dispersants, pigment dispersants, or Although it may sometimes be simply described as a compound or the like, a compound having a substituent such as an acidic group, a basic group, or a neutral group in the above-described organic dye residue is synonymous with a dye derivative.

[0041] The dye derivatives can be used alone or in admixture of two or more.

[0042] The content of the dye derivative is preferably 1 to 100 parts by mass, more preferably 3 to 70 parts by mass, and still more preferably 5 to 50 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the organic pigment.

[0043] When a dye derivative is added to a pigment and subjected to a micronization treatment such as acid pasting, acid slurry, dry milling, salt milling, solvent salt milling, etc., the dye derivative is adsorbed on the pigment surface, and the primary particles of the pigment can be made finer than in the case where no dye derivative is added.

[0044] Also, when a dye derivative is added to a pigment and subjected to a dispersion treatment such as wet dispersion using two-roll, three-roll, or beads, the dye derivative is adsorbed on the pigment surface, the pigment surface becomes polar, and the adsorption of the resin-type dispersant is promoted. The compatibility of the pigment, dye derivative, resin-type dispersant, solvent, and other additives is improved, and the dispersion stability and viscosity stability over time when used as a coloring composition or a colored curable composition are improved.

[0045] <Resin-type dispersant> The photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention can use known resin-type dispersants. Resin-type dispersants have a coloring agent affinity site having a property of adsorbing to a coloring agent and a site compatible with components other than the coloring agent, and adsorb to the coloring agent to function to stabilize the dispersion in the photosensitive coloring composition. Examples of resin types of resin-type dispersants include urethane-based dispersants such as polyurethane; polycarboxylic acid esters such as polyacrylate, unsaturated polyamides, polycarboxylic acids, (partial) amine salts of polycarboxylic acids, ammonium salts of polycarboxylic acids, alkylamine salts of polycarboxylic acids; polysiloxanes; long-chain polyaminoamidophosphates, hydroxyl group-containing polycarboxylic acid esters; oil-based dispersants such as amides and their salts formed by the reaction of poly(lower alkyleneimine) and a polyester having a free carboxyl group; 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, polyvinylpyrrolidone; polyester-based, modified polyacrylate-based, ethylene oxide / propylene oxide addition compounds, phosphate ester-based, and the like.

[0047] Examples of acidic functional group-containing resin-type dispersants include resin-type dispersants having an aromatic carboxylic acid structure. These are described, for example, in WO2008 / 007776, JP-A-2008-029901, JP-A-2009-155406, JP-A-2010-185934, JP-A-2011-157416, JP-A-2009-251481, JP-A-2007-23195, JP-A-1996-143651, and the like.

[0048] Examples of the basic functional group-containing resin type dispersant include nitrogen atom-containing graft copolymers, nitrogen atom-containing acrylic block copolymers having functional groups such as a tertiary amino group, a quaternary ammonium base, and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring in the side chain, and urethane-based polymer dispersants.

[0050] The resin type dispersant can be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0051] The content of the resin type dispersant is preferably about 3 to 200% by mass, more preferably about 5 to 100% by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the colorant (A). When contained in an appropriate amount, the film-forming property is improved.

[0052] <Binder resin (B)> The binder resin (B) is preferably a resin having a transmittance of 80% or more in the entire wavelength region of 400 to 700 nm when a film having a thickness of 2 μm is formed. In addition, the transmittance is preferably 95% or more. The binder resin (B) is preferably a thermoplastic resin or a photosensitive resin. Further, the binder resin (B) preferably has alkali solubility. Thereby, the film formed from the photosensitive coloring composition can be patterned by photolithography. A photosensitive resin having no alkali solubility and an alkali-soluble resin can have a thermosetting group. Examples of the thermosetting group include an epoxy group and an oxetanyl group.

[0053] The thermoplastic resin does not have alkali solubility. Examples of the thermoplastic resin include acrylic resins, butyral resins, styrene-maleic acid copolymers, chlorinated polyethylene, chlorinated polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymers, polyvinyl acetate, polyurethane resins, polyester resins, vinyl resins, alkyd resins, polystyrene resins, polyamide resins, rubber resins, cyclized rubber resins, celluloses, polyethylene (HDPE, LDPE), polybutadiene, and polyimide resins.

Examples of the alkali-soluble resin having no photosensitivity include acrylic resins having acidic groups, α-olefin / (anhydrous) maleic acid copolymers, styrene / styrene sulfonic acid copolymers, ethylene / (meth)acrylic acid copolymers, or isobutylene / (anhydrous) maleic acid copolymers. Among these, acrylic resins having acidic groups and styrene / styrene sulfonic acid copolymers are preferable in terms of improving developability, heat resistance, and transparency.

[0054] <Alkali-soluble photosensitive resin> The alkali-soluble photosensitive resin has photosensitivity because it has polymerizable unsaturated groups. The alkali-soluble photosensitive resin only needs to have alkali solubility and photosensitivity, and known resins can be used. Resins synthesized by the following methods (i) and (ii) are preferable. When the alkali-soluble photosensitive resin is used, it undergoes three-dimensional crosslinking upon light irradiation, increasing the crosslink density, thereby improving the chemical resistance of the film.

[0055] [Method (i)] Method (i) is, for example, first, synthesizing a polymer of an epoxy group-containing monomer and other monomers. Next, adding a monocarboxyl group-containing monomer to the epoxy group of the polymer, and reacting a polybasic acid anhydride with the generated hydroxyl group to obtain an alkali-soluble photosensitive resin. The monocarboxyl group-containing monomer is a monomer having one carboxyl group.

[0056] Epoxy group-containing monomers include, for example, glycidyl (meth)acrylate, methyl glycidyl (meth)acrylate, 2-glycidoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 3,4-epoxybutyl (meth)acrylate, and 3,4-epoxycyclohexyl (meth)acrylate.

When contained in an appropriate amount, the photosensitivity and taper shape are improved, and wrinkles are less likely to occur on the film surface.

When contained in an appropriate amount, the adhesion between the substrate and the film is further improved, and good developability can be obtained.

[0106] <Antioxidant> The photosensitive coloring composition can contain an antioxidant. The antioxidant can prevent the film formed from the photosensitive coloring composition from yellowing due to oxidation during heat curing or the heat treatment during ITO annealing, and can suppress a decrease in the transmittance of the film. In particular, when the concentration of the colorant in the photosensitive coloring composition is high, since the content of the photopolymerizable compound (D) relatively decreases, if the amount of the photoinitiator is increased or a thermosetting compound is blended for countermeasures, the film is liable to yellow. Therefore, by including an antioxidant, yellowing due to oxidation during the heating process can be prevented, and a decrease in the transmittance of the film can be suppressed.

[0107] Examples of the antioxidant include hindered phenol-based, hindered amine-based, phosphorus-based, sulfur-based, and hydroxylamine-based compounds. In the present specification, the antioxidant is preferably a compound that does not contain a halogen atom.

[0116] <Adhesion improver> The photosensitive coloring composition can contain an adhesion improver. Thereby, the adhesion between the film and the substrate is further improved. In addition, it becomes easier to form a pattern with a narrow width by the photolithography method. Examples of the adhesion improver include silane coupling agents.

[0117] Silane coupling agents include, for example, vinyl silanes such as vinyltrimethoxysilane and vinyltriethoxysilane; (meth)acrylic silanes such as 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane, 3-acryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane; epoxy silanes such as 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropylmethyldiethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyltriethoxysilane; amino silanes such as N-2-(aminoethyl)-3-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, N-2-(aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-triethoxysilyl-N-(1,3-dimethyl-butylidene)propylamine, N-phenyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, hydrochloride of N-(vinylbenzyl)-2-aminoethyl-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane; mercapto silanes such as 3-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane; styryl silanes such as p-styryltrimethoxysilane; ureido silanes such as 3-ureidopropyltriethoxysilane And sulfides such as bis(triethoxysilylpropyl)tetrasulfide, and isocyanates such as 3-isocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane.

[0118] The content of the adhesion improver is preferably 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 5 parts by mass, based on 100 parts by mass of the colorant (A). When contained in an appropriate amount, the photosensitivity of the photosensitive coloring composition is improved, the adhesion of the film is further improved, and the resolution of the pattern is also further improved.

[0119] <Manufacturing method of photosensitive coloring composition> The photosensitive coloring composition is prepared, for example, by performing a dispersion treatment using an organic pigment, a resin-type dispersant, a solvent, etc. to produce a dispersion. When a dispersion aid such as a dye derivative is used in combination during the dispersion treatment, the organic pigment can be dispersed more finely. Also, when the pigment has high solubility in the solvent, the dispersion treatment may not be required. In this specification, since at least three types of pigments are used, dispersions can be prepared for each pigment and then mixed. Also, a dispersion can be prepared collectively using two or more types of pigments. Next, a binder resin (B), a polymerizable compound (C), and a photopolymerization initiator (D) are added to the dispersion and mixed to obtain a photosensitive coloring composition. Needless to say, the timing of adding each material is arbitrary. Also, needless to say, the above production is just an example, and it can be produced by other methods.

[0120] For the above dispersion treatment, for example, apparatuses 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 can be used.

[0121] The photosensitive coloring composition is preferably prepared as a so-called resist material. Examples of the resist material include a solvent-developable type and an alkali-developable type, and the alkali-developable type is preferred.

[0122] <Solvent> The photosensitive coloring composition can contain a solvent. This makes it easy to adjust the viscosity of the photosensitive coloring composition, so it is easy to form a film with a smooth surface. The solvent can be appropriately selected according to the purpose of use and can contain an appropriate amount.

[0123] Examples of the solvent include ester solvents (solvents containing -COO- in the molecule and not containing -O-), ether solvents (solvents containing -O- in the molecule and not containing -COO-), ether ester solvents (solvents containing -COO- and -O- in the molecule), ketone solvents (solvents containing -CO- in the molecule and not containing -COO-), alcohol solvents (solvents containing OH in the molecule and not containing -O-, -CO-, and -COO-), aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, amide solvents, dimethyl sulfoxide, etc.

[0124] Of the above solvents, from the viewpoint of coatability and drying property, it is preferable to include an organic solvent having a boiling point at 1 atm of 120° C. or more and 180° C. or less. Among them, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, ethyl lactate, butyl lactate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, etc. are preferred, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethyl lactate, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, etc. are more preferred.

[0125] <Removal of large particles> In the present specification, the colorant dispersion stage or the photosensitive coloring composition is prepared, and then the colorant is added to the photosensitive coloring composition. It is preferable to remove coarse particles that may cause the formation of a fine pattern since foreign matter can be removed from the coating. To remove coarse particles, the photosensitive coloring composition is centrifuged at a gravitational acceleration of 3,000 to 25,000 G. It is preferable to remove coarse particles of 5 μm or more, preferably coarse particles of 1 μm or more, and more preferably coarse particles of 0.5 μm or more, and mixed dust by means of filtration using a sintered filter or a membrane filter. In this way, it is preferable that the coloring composition does not substantially contain particles of 0.5 μm or more. More preferably, the particles are 0.3 μm or less.

[0126] <Color filters> In this specification, a color filter includes a base material (also referred to as a transparent substrate) and filter segments formed from a photosensitive coloring composition. By appropriately selecting the type of coloring agent (A) to be used, the color filter can have red filter segments, green filter segments, and blue filter segments. Additionally, if necessary, it can also have magenta filter segments, cyan filter segments, and yellow filter segments. Note that a reflective substrate can be used instead of the transparent substrate. Examples of the transparent substrate include a glass substrate. Examples of the reflective substrate include a substrate that uses an aluminum electrode or a metal thin film as a reflective surface. A transparent electrode such as an ITO film can also be formed on the substrate.

[0127] <Method for manufacturing a color filter> For the color filter, it is preferable to first form a black matrix on the base material and then form the filter segments. Note that a thin film transistor (TFT) can be formed in advance on the base material and then the black matrix can be formed. Examples of the black matrix include inorganic films such as chromium, a multilayer film of chromium / chromium oxide, titanium nitride, and a resin film in which a light-shielding agent is dispersed.

[0128] The formation of the filter segments can be performed, for example, by a printing method, an electrodeposition method, a transfer method, an inkjet method, a photolithography method, etc. In this specification, the most preferable photolithography method will be described.

[0129] In the photolithography method, for example, a photosensitive coloring composition containing a coloring agent of a certain color tone is applied onto a transparent substrate to form a film with a dry film thickness of about 0.2 to 5 μm. The obtained film (hereinafter referred to as the first film) is exposed (irradiated with light) through a mask having a predetermined pattern. Next, development is carried out by immersing it in a solvent or an alkali developer or spraying the developer such as by spraying to remove the uncured portions and obtain a desired pattern. By performing this process in the same manner using a photosensitive coloring composition having a coloring agent of another color tone, a color filter having filter segments of each color can be manufactured. Further, a second film (oxygen barrier film) can be formed on the first film before exposure using polyvinyl alcohol or a water-soluble acrylic resin. Thereby, since the first film does not come into contact with oxygen, the exposure sensitivity is further improved. Also, the color filter can be heated to cure the uncured photopolymerizable compound in the filter segment.

[0130] Examples of the coating apparatus include spray coating, spin coating, slit coating, roll coating, etc. A drying process can be performed during coating. Examples of the drying apparatus include a hot air oven, an infrared heater, etc.

[0131] Examples of the developer as an alkali developer include inorganic alkalis such as sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide; organic alkalis such as dimethylbenzylamine and triethanolamine. Also, an antifoaming agent and a surfactant can be added to the developer.

[0132] 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 seal portion, and then the injection port is sealed. If necessary, a polarizing film or a retardation film is bonded to the outside of the substrate to manufacture a color liquid crystal display device. This color liquid crystal display device can be used in a liquid crystal display mode for colorization using a color filter such as twisted nematic (TN), super twisted nematic (STN), in-plane switching (IPS), vertical alignment (VA), optically compensated bend (OCB).

[0133] In this specification, the color filter can be used for applications such as solid-state image pickup devices, organic EL display devices, quantum dot display devices, electronic paper, and head-mounted displays in addition to liquid crystal display devices.

The device 10 shown in FIG. 1 includes a pair of transparent substrates 11 and 21 arranged to face each other with a gap therebetween, and liquid crystal LC is encapsulated therebetween.

[0135] The liquid crystal LC is aligned according to driving modes such as TN (Twisted Nematic), STN (Super Twisted Nematic), IPS (In-Plane switching), VA (Vertical Alignment), and OCB (Optically Compensated Bifefringence). On the inner surface of the first transparent substrate 11, a TFT (Thin Film Transistor) array 12 is formed, and on top of that, a transparent electrode layer 13 made of, for example, ITO is formed. An alignment layer 14 is provided on the transparent electrode layer 13. Also, a polarizing plate 15 is formed on the outer surface of the transparent substrate 11.

[0136] On the other hand, on the inner surface of the second transparent substrate 21, the color filter 22 of the present invention is formed. The red, green, and blue filter segments that make up the color filter 22 are separated by a black matrix (not shown).

[0137] Covering the color filter 22, a transparent protective film (not shown) is formed as needed, and on top of that, a transparent electrode layer 23 made of, for example, ITO is formed, and an alignment layer 24 is provided covering the transparent electrode layer 23.

[0138] Also, a polarizing plate 25 is formed on the outer surface of the transparent substrate 21. Note that a backlight unit 30 is provided below the polarizing plate 15.

[0142] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described by way of examples. However, the present invention is not limited to these. Note that "parts" means "parts by mass" and "%" means "% by mass".

[0143] Prior to the examples, the calculation methods for measuring the average molecular weight of the resin and the acid value of the resin will be described. Note that propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate will be hereinafter referred to as (PGMAc).

[0144] (Average molecular weight of resin) The number average molecular weight (Mn) and mass average molecular weight (Mw) of the resin were measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) equipped with an RI detector. HLC-8220GPC (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) was used as the apparatus. Two separation columns were connected in series, and for both packing materials, two "TSK-GEL SUPER HZM-N" were connected in series and used. The measurement was carried out at an oven temperature of 40°C, using a THF solution as the eluent, and at a flow rate of 0.35 ml / min. The sample was dissolved in a solvent consisting of the above eluent at 1 wt%, and 20 microliters were injected. All molecular weights are in terms of polystyrene conversion values.

[0145] (Acid value of the resin) To 0.5 - 1 g of the resin solution, 80 ml of acetone and 10 ml of water were added and stirred until uniformly dissolved. Using a 0.1 mol / L aqueous KOH solution as the titrant, titration was carried out using an automatic titrator ("COM-555" manufactured by Hiranuma Sangyo Co., Ltd.) to measure the acid value (mgKOH / g) of the resin solution. Then, from the acid value of the resin solution and the non-volatile content concentration of the resin solution, the acid value per non-volatile content of the resin was calculated.

[0146] <Production of Resin-Type Dispersant Solution 1> Into a reaction vessel equipped with a gas inlet tube, a condenser, a stirring blade, and a thermometer, as the first-stage synthesis, 90 parts of methyl methacrylate, 60 parts of ethyl acrylate, 40 parts of t-butyl acrylate, 10 parts of methacrylic acid, and 40 parts of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (hereinafter referred to as PGMAC) were charged and replaced with nitrogen gas. The inside of the reaction vessel was heated to 80°C, and after adding 12 parts of 3-mercapto-1,2-propanediol, 0.2 part of 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile was added in 20 portions at 30-minute intervals and reacted at 80°C for 12 hours. It was confirmed by non-volatile content measurement that 95% had reacted. Next, as the second-stage synthesis, 18 parts of pyromellitic dianhydride, 190 parts of PGMAC, and 0.4 part of 1,8-diazabicyclo-[5.4.0]-7-undecene as a catalyst were added and reacted at 120°C for 7 hours. It was confirmed by titration that more than 98% of the acid anhydride was half-esterified, and the reaction was terminated. In this way, a resin-type dispersant solution having an acid value of 42 mgKOH / g per non-volatile content and a weight-average molecular weight of 9,800 was obtained. After cooling to room temperature, about 2 g of the resin solution was sampled, heated and dried at 180°C for 20 minutes to measure the non-volatile content, and PGMAC was added so that the non-volatile content became 40% by mass to obtain Resin-type Dispersant Solution 1.
