Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the brushing method of rubbing the surface of a liquid crystal alignment film made of polyimide or the like has problems of generating dust and static electricity.
In addition, due to the high-definition of liquid crystal display elements in recent years, the unevenness caused by the electrodes on the corresponding substrate or the switching active elements for liquid crystal driving, it is impossible to rub the surface of the liquid crystal alignment film uniformly with a cloth, and it is impossible to achieve a uniform liquid crystal. orientation

[0281] [Preparation of polymer composition]

[0282] The polymer composition used in the present invention is preferably prepared in the form of a coating liquid so as to be suitable for forming a liquid crystal aligning film. That is, the polymer composition used in the present invention is preferably prepared in the form of a solution in which a resin component for forming a resin coating is dissolved in an organic solvent. Here, the resin component refers to a resin component containing the above-mentioned photosensitive side chain type polymer capable of expressing liquid crystallinity. In this case, the content of the resin component is preferably 1% by mass to 20% by mass, more preferably 3% by mass to 15% by mass, particularly preferably 3% by mass to 10% by mass.

[0283] In the polymer composition of this embodiment, the above-mentioned resin components may all be the above-mentioned photosensitive side-chain polymers capable of exhibiting liquid crystallinity,...

Synthetic example 1

[0365] MA1 (9.97 g, 30.0 mmol) was dissolved in THF (92.0 g), and after degassing with a diaphragm pump, 0.246 g (1.5 mmol) of AIBN was added and degassed again. Then, it was made to react at 50 degreeC for 30 hours, and the polymer solution of the methacrylate was obtained. This polymer solution was added dropwise to diethyl ether (1000 ml), and the resulting precipitate was filtered. This deposit was wash|cleaned with diethyl ether, and it dried under reduced pressure in the oven of 40 degreeC, and obtained the methacrylate polymer powder.

[0366] NMP54.0g was added to the obtained powder 6.0g, and it stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. Furthermore, BCS40.0g was added to this solution, and it stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, and obtained the polymer solution (A1) whose solid content concentration was 6.0 wt%. This polymer solution becomes the liquid crystal aligning agent for forming a liquid crystal aligning film as it is.

Abstract

The present invention provides a highly reliable in-plane switching liquid crystal display element which is provided with alignment control ability at high efficiency and has excellent screen burn-in characteristics. The present invention achieves the above-described objective by a method for producing a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film, in which a liquid crystal alignment film for in-plane switching liquid crystal display elements provided with alignment control ability is obtained by performing: [I] a step for forming a coating film by applying a polymer composition to a substrate having a conductive film for in-plane switching, said polymer composition containing (A) a photosensitive side-chain polymer which exhibits liquid crystallinity within a predetermined temperature range and (B) an organic solvent; [II] a step for irradiating the coating film obtained in step [I] with polarized ultraviolet light having an extinction ratio of 10:1 or more; and [III] a step for heating the coating film obtained in step [II].

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a substrate having a liquid crystal alignment film for a transverse electric field drive type liquid crystal display element. More specifically, it relates to a new method for producing a liquid crystal display element excellent in image sticking characteristics. Background technique [0002] Liquid crystal display devices are known as display devices that are light in weight, thin in cross-section, and low in power consumption. In recent years, they have been used in large-scale television applications, etc., and have achieved remarkable development. The liquid crystal display element is constituted, for example, by sandwiching a liquid crystal layer between a pair of transparent substrates provided with electrodes. Also, in a liquid crystal display element, an organic film containing an organic material is used as a liquid crystal alignment film to bring liquid crystals into a desired align...
