Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a polymerizable liquid crystal composition which has an effect of decreasing a tilt angle on an air interface when coated on a substrate and which does not degrade a voltage holding ratio of a liquid crystal display when an optically anisotropic body of a cured product from the polymerizable liquid crystal composition is incorporated in a liquid crystal cell. <P>SOLUTION: The polymerizable liquid crystal composition contains a compound having a repeating unit expressed by general formula (I) which contains a fluorine atom, and having a weight-average molecular weight of 100 or more. This polymerizable liquid crystal composition is characterized by being useful as a material for the optically isotropic body which aligns horizontally on an air interface because of having an effect of decreasing a tile angle on the air interface, and by forming easily a laminate film without degrading a voltage holding ratio of a liquid crystal display because of containing no polar substance such as a surfactant or the like. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

本願発明は、液晶ディスプレイ等の光学補償に用いられる光学異方体の構成部材として有用な重合性液晶組成物及び当該組成物の重合体により構成される光学異方体に関する。   The present invention relates to a polymerizable liquid crystal composition useful as a constituent member of an optical anisotropic body used for optical compensation of a liquid crystal display or the like, and an optical anisotropic body composed of a polymer of the composition.

重合性液晶組成物は光学異方体の構成部材として有用であり、光学異方体は例えば位相差フィルムとして種々の液晶ディスプレイに応用されている。位相差フィルムは、重合性液晶組成物を基板に塗布して、配向膜等により重合性液晶組成物を配向させた状態で活性エネルギー線を照射して重合性液晶組成物を硬化することにより得られる。しかし、重合性液晶組成物を基板に塗布した場合、空気界面においてある程度のチルト角を有し、ある特定の位相差フィルムに要求される光学特性を満たすためには該チルト角を減じることが求められていた。ここで空気界面におけるチルト角とは、棒状重合性液晶の場合、空気界面に存在する重合性液晶分子の長軸が基板面となす角を表し、基板面と平行になる場合を0°として定義し、円盤状重合性液晶の場合、円盤面が基板面となす角を表し、基板面と平行になる場合を0°として定義する。   The polymerizable liquid crystal composition is useful as a constituent member of an optical anisotropic body, and the optical anisotropic body is applied to various liquid crystal displays as a retardation film, for example. The retardation film is obtained by applying a polymerizable liquid crystal composition to a substrate and curing the polymerizable liquid crystal composition by irradiating active energy rays in a state where the polymerizable liquid crystal composition is aligned by an alignment film or the like. It is done. However, when a polymerizable liquid crystal composition is applied to a substrate, it has a certain tilt angle at the air interface, and it is required to reduce the tilt angle in order to satisfy the optical characteristics required for a specific retardation film. It was done. Here, the tilt angle at the air interface means, in the case of rod-like polymerizable liquid crystal, the angle formed by the major axis of the polymerizable liquid crystal molecules present at the air interface with the substrate surface, and is defined as 0 ° when parallel to the substrate surface. In the case of a discotic polymerizable liquid crystal, the angle formed by the disc surface and the substrate surface is defined, and the case where the disc surface is parallel to the substrate surface is defined as 0 °.

該チルト角を減じる方法として、界面活性剤や重合可能な界面活性剤を重合性液晶組成物中に添加する方法が提案されている(特許文献1、2及び3参照)。
一方、薄型・軽量化やコスト低減を目的として、液晶ディスプレイの液晶セル内に位相差フィルムを組み込む方式が注目されているが、この場合、当該フィルム中の不純物が液晶に対して悪影響を及ぼし易い問題がある。
As a method of reducing the tilt angle, a method of adding a surfactant or a polymerizable surfactant to the polymerizable liquid crystal composition has been proposed (see Patent Documents 1, 2, and 3).
On the other hand, a method of incorporating a retardation film in a liquid crystal cell of a liquid crystal display has been attracting attention for the purpose of reducing the thickness and weight and reducing the cost. In this case, impurities in the film tend to adversely affect the liquid crystal. There's a problem.

重合性液晶組成物に界面活性剤を含有させた場合、チルト角を減じる目的は達成できる。しかしながら、位相差フィルムを液晶セル内に組み込んだ場合、界面活性剤は化学構造上、極性が高い部分を有していることから界面活性剤の混入により液晶の電圧保持率を低下させてしまう問題があった。更に、界面活性剤の有する非粘着性や撥水・撥油性から積層膜の形成が困難である。更に、界面活性剤として長鎖パーフルオロアルキルスルホン酸アミド誘導体を用いた場合(特許文献3参照)には当該化合物は環境毒性の点で懸念があることから液晶ディスプレイとしての応用には問題があった。
以上のように、液晶ディスプレイの電圧保持率を悪化させず、積層膜の形成が容易であり、光学異方体を作製した場合に表面のチルト角を容易に減じることができる重合性液晶組成物の開発が求められていた。
When a polymerizable liquid crystal composition contains a surfactant, the purpose of reducing the tilt angle can be achieved. However, when a retardation film is incorporated in a liquid crystal cell, the surfactant has a portion with high polarity due to its chemical structure, so that the voltage holding ratio of the liquid crystal is lowered due to the incorporation of the surfactant. was there. Furthermore, it is difficult to form a laminated film because of the non-adhesiveness and water / oil repellency of the surfactant. Furthermore, when a long-chain perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid amide derivative is used as a surfactant (see Patent Document 3), there is a problem in application as a liquid crystal display because the compound has a concern in terms of environmental toxicity. It was.
As described above, a polymerizable liquid crystal composition that does not deteriorate the voltage holding ratio of a liquid crystal display, can easily form a laminated film, and can easily reduce the tilt angle of the surface when an optical anisotropic body is produced. The development of was demanded.

本願発明の目的は、重合性液晶組成物を基板に塗布した場合、空気界面におけるチルト角を減じる効果を有し、重合性液晶組成物の硬化物である光学異方体が液晶セル内に組み込まれた場合において液晶ディスプレイの電圧保持率を悪化させることが無く、かつ、積層膜の形成が容易である重合性液晶組成物を提供することにある。   The object of the present invention is to reduce the tilt angle at the air interface when a polymerizable liquid crystal composition is applied to a substrate, and an optical anisotropic body, which is a cured product of the polymerizable liquid crystal composition, is incorporated in a liquid crystal cell. In such a case, it is an object of the present invention to provide a polymerizable liquid crystal composition that does not deteriorate the voltage holding ratio of a liquid crystal display and can easily form a laminated film.

上記目的を達成するために鋭意検討した結果、重合性液晶組成物に添加することにより界面のチルト角を効果的に減じる化合物を見出し本願発明の完成に至った。本願発明は、一般式(I)   As a result of diligent studies to achieve the above object, a compound that effectively reduces the tilt angle of the interface when added to the polymerizable liquid crystal composition has been found and the present invention has been completed. The present invention relates to the general formula (I)

本願発明の重合性液晶組成物は、空気界面におけるチルト角を減じる効果を有することから空気界面において水平配向となる光学異方体の材料として有用であり、界面活性剤等の極性物質を含有しないため液晶ディスプレイの電圧保持率を悪化させることが無く、積層膜の形成が容易であるといった優れた特徴を有する。よって本願発明の重合性液晶組成物は、特に液晶セル内部に組み込む光学異方体の材料として好適に使用でき、かつ、環境毒性の心配がない。   The polymerizable liquid crystal composition of the present invention has an effect of reducing the tilt angle at the air interface, and thus is useful as a material for an optical anisotropic body that is horizontally aligned at the air interface, and does not contain a polar substance such as a surfactant. Therefore, the liquid crystal display has excellent characteristics such that the voltage holding ratio of the liquid crystal display is not deteriorated and the laminated film can be easily formed.
