Problems solved by technology

However, when the alignment treatment is performed using a liquid crystal alignment film, there is a problem that the process becomes complicated and the cost increases.
In addition to the above, there is also a problem that the material of the substrate is limited due to the use of a solvent or heat treatment, which causes the peeling of the sealant due to the contact between the sealing part in the cell and the alignment film.
However, the characteristics of the liquid crystal device produced by the method described in Non-Patent Document 1 are not sufficient, and a liquid crystal device with higher performance is required for practical use.

Abstract

Provided is a reverse mode light scattering-type liquid crystal device which is good enough for practical use and has low drive voltage, and which exhibits high haze when a voltage is applied thereto,while exhibiting low haze when no voltage is applied thereto. A reverse mode liquid crystal device which has a light control layer and at least a pair of electrodes, and which is characterized in that the light control layer contains a polymerization product of a polymerizable material that contains (A) a liquid crystal composition, (B) a vertical alignment agent and (C) at least one polymerizable compound selected from among polymer-forming monomers and polymer-forming oligomers.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a reverse mode type liquid crystal device which is transparent when no voltage is applied and diffuses when voltage is applied. In particular, it relates to a dimming window or a smart window for blocking / transmitting external light or field of view in a window or shop window of a building, a partition in an interior, a sunroof of a car, a rear window, etc. The liquid crystal device used in. Background technique [0002] In general, in a reverse-mode light-scattering liquid crystal device, liquid crystals are vertically aligned with respect to a support substrate in order to obtain a transparent state when no voltage is applied. As a mechanism for obtaining the vertical alignment, an alignment film made of polyimide or the like has hitherto been used. In order to form a liquid crystal alignment film on an electrode, first, after applying a solution obtained by dissolving a liquid crystal alignment material in an organ...
