Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] In Patent Document 1, it is disclosed that a resist composition using a pigment dispersion composition for a black matrix is excellent in fine line adhesion. However, since the composition contains a polyfunctional thiol compound as an essential component, there are problems such as odor. Therefore, there has been a demand for a pigment dispersion composition for a black matrix that can provide a resist composition excellent in fine line adhesion by a method different from such a composition.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a pigment dispersion composition for a black matrix that can provide a resist composition excellent in fine line adhesion. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In other words, the present invention relates to a pigment dispersion composition for a black matrix, comprising carbon black, a basic group-containing pigment dispersant, an acidic group-containing pigment dispersion aid, an epoxy resin, an alkali-soluble resin, and a solvent, wherein the carbon black is surface-treated carbon black treated with an inorganic aluminum salt.

[0007] Furthermore, the present invention relates to a black matrix resist composition containing the black matrix pigment dispersion composition, a photopolymerizable compound, and a photopolymerization initiator.

[0008] Furthermore, the present invention relates to a black resist film obtained using a black matrix resist composition. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] The pigment dispersion composition for black matrix of the present invention contains carbon black, a basic group-containing pigment dispersant, an acidic group-containing pigment dispersion aid, an epoxy resin, an alkali-soluble resin, and a solvent, wherein the carbon black is surface-treated carbon black treated with an inorganic aluminum salt. In particular, the surface-treated carbon black has moderately reduced hydrophilicity compared to untreated carbon black, which can suppress the elution and peeling of the pattern formed by alkaline development and washing with water, so the pigment dispersion composition for black matrix of the present invention has excellent adhesion to fine lines. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] The pigment dispersion composition for black matrix of the present invention contains carbon black, a basic group-containing pigment dispersant, an acidic group-containing pigment dispersion aid, an epoxy resin, an alkali-soluble resin, and a solvent, wherein the carbon black is surface-treated carbon black treated with an inorganic aluminum salt.
