Abstract
Description
[Technical Field] 【0001】 The present invention belongs to the fields of organic chemistry and photocuring, and more specifically, relates to a novel dialoylcarbazole compound that exhibits high sensitivity when used in the production of photocurable compositions, particularly photoresists, by forming a photoinitiator composition with a carbazolyl oxime ester as a highly active sensitizer. [Background technology] 【0002】 Photocuring technology has been widely used since its development in the 1970s. For example, UV photocuring technology is commonly used in the manufacturing of paints, printing inks, and electronic devices. The components of photoinitiators and initiators used with photoinitiators, such as sensitizers, are factors that affect curing efficiency. Carbazolyl oxime esters are an important type of oxime ester photoinitiator and, due to their high sensitivity, are known, studied, and used by those skilled in the art. For example, patent applications with publication numbers CN1922142A (Mitsubishi Chemical), CN100528838C(02), CN101528694A(831), CN101528693A, CN101508744A(304), CN103153952A(03), CN103492948A, and CN107793502A disclose carbazolyl oxime ester compounds with various different substituents, which are used in materials and devices such as color filters, black matrices, photospacers, and liquid crystal splitting orientations. To enhance saturation or opacity, the pigment content in photocuring formulations is increasing. In particular, in black photoresists with high pigment content, the utilization rate of light energy decreases due to pigment absorption during the curing process. Therefore, the development of more sensitive photoinitiators or photoinitiator compositions is expected, and sensitization of conventional photoinitiators is one method of improving sensitivity. As sensitizers described in the prior art, for example, in patent CN100528838C, benzophenone and its derivatives, thioxanthone and its derivatives, anthraquinone and its derivatives, coumarin derivatives, camphorquinone, phenothiazine and its derivatives, 3-(aloylmethylene)thiazoline, rhodanine and its derivatives, eosin, rhodamine, acridine, anthocyanin, merocyanine dyes, and tertiary amine compounds are disclosed. Of these, benzophenone and its derivatives, thioxanthone and its derivatives, anthraquinone and its derivatives, and coumarin derivatives are preferred.Experiments have shown that when these sensitizers are used in combination with carbazolyl oxime esters, they do not exhibit a satisfactory sensitizing effect. For example, compounds such as eosin, anthocyanins, and phenothiazines contain phenolic hydroxyl groups or anilino groups, which leads to a decrease in the photocuring efficiency of the photocurable composition formulation. While the four preferred compounds themselves are photoinitiators, their photoinitiation efficiency is far lower compared to carbazolyl oxime ester compounds, and they do not exhibit a synergistic sensitizing effect when used in combination with carbazolyl oxime esters. For this reason, there were no suitable sensitizers in the prior art. 【0003】 However, engineers are focused on improving performance in areas such as exposure sensitivity, resolution, and thermal stability, and are constantly facing new challenges with conventional product and formulation technologies. [Overview of the Initiative] 【0004】 The inventors synthesized novel dialoylcarbazole compounds represented by formulas I and II, and surprisingly found that when used in combination with carbazolyl oxime esters, such as Irgacure® OXE 03, in specific proportions, they exhibit a remarkable sensitizing effect, with a sensitizing efficiency far higher than that of those compounds disclosed in the prior art.

The initiator and sensitizer can be the compositions from the production examples of the compositions, or a mixture of these in the proportions shown in the table, dissolved in PMA, and then mixed with a black slurry in a predetermined proportion. After uniformly mixing each component, the mixture was applied to a glass slide using a 10 μm wire rod, baked in a 90°C oven for 5 minutes, cured using a 365 nm light source in combination with a 120 μm mask, developed at 25°C with a 1% NaOH solution, washed by immersion in pure water for 10 seconds, baked in a 90°C oven for 30 minutes, and then the line width of the developed image was measured, with the unit of line width being μm. 【0037】 [Table 1] 【0038】 [Table 2] 【0039】 [Table 3] 【0040】 [Table 4] 【0041】 In the examples and comparative examples shown in Tables 1, 2, and 4, coating, curing, development, and measurement were performed, and the data are shown in Tables 5, 6, 7, and 8. As is clear from the results, in the examples where I-1 was used as a sensitizer in combination with several different carbazolyl oxime esters, and the usage ratio was within the range according to the present invention, the development effect was clearly superior to the comparative examples where no sensitizer was used, only a sensitizer was used, or the amount of sensitizer used was outside the range of the value according to the present invention. In particular, as is clear from the results of Comparative Example 2, the compound represented by formula I-1 could not form a development pattern on its own and had almost no polymerization initiation effect. Comparing the formulations in Table 4 with the data in Table 8, when I-1 was used as a sensitizer, its sensitizing effect was clearly superior to that of thioxanthone, coumarin, and 4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone, and in the latter three cases, the development linewidth was shown to be less than that of the formulation in Comparative Example 1, which used an oxime ester alone. 【0042】 In the examples and comparative examples in Table 3, coating, curing, development, and measurement were performed, and the data is shown in Table 7. As is clear from the results, in the examples where II-2 was used as a sensitizer in combination with several different carbazolyl oxime esters, and the usage ratio was within the range of the present invention, the development effect was clearly superior to the comparative examples where no sensitizer was used, the sensitizer was used alone, or the amount of sensitizer used was outside the range of the value according to the present invention. In particular, as is clear from the results of Comparative Example 9, the compound represented by formula II-2, when used alone, could not form a development pattern and had almost no polymerization initiation effect. Comparing the formulations in Table 4 with the data in Table 8, it was shown that when II-2 was used as a sensitizer, the sensitizing effect was clearly superior to that of thioxanthone, coumarin, and 4,4'-bis(diethylamino)benzophenone. 【0043】 [Table 5] 【0044】 [Table 6] 【0045】 [Table 7] 【0046】 [Table 8] 【0047】 Binder example Each example and comparative example was prepared using the components shown in Table 9. After uniformly mixing the components, the mixture was applied to a glass slide using a 50 μm wire rod. The mixture was cured using a 365 nm light source in combination with a mask. After curing, the weight of the film was measured. Subsequently, the film was immersed in acetone at room temperature for 36 hours, and the weight of the film was measured again to calculate the gel conversion rate. 【0048】 [Table 9] 【0049】 Table 10 shows the test data for the comparative examples and examples in Table 9. As can be seen from the data, in Examples 10 and 11, the binder of the photocurable composition according to the present invention was used, and when irradiated with light, the double bond gel conversion rate was higher than in Comparative Example 13, which used the oxime ester photoinitiator alone. 【0050】 [Table 10] 【0051】 As described above, the novel dialoylcarbazole compound according to the present invention exhibits a remarkable sensitizing effect when used in a photoresist composition or binder together with a carbazolyl oxime ester photoinitiator, and shows the optimal sensitizing effect when the molar ratio of the dialoylcarbazole compound to the carbazolyl oxime ester photoinitiator is 0.1 to 1.4.
