摘要:
An alkyldiamine having excellent polymerization reactivity, a polyimide comprising it as a constituting element, and a liquid crystal alignment film excellent in uniformity of liquid crystal alignment, are presented. Namely, the present invention relates to a diaminobenzene derivative represented by the following general formula (1) and to a polyimide obtained by reacting a diamine containing at least 1 mol % of the diaminobenzene derivative represented by the general formula (1), with at least one compound selected from a tetracarboxylic. dianhydride and its derivatives, to obtain a polyimide. precursor having a reduced viscosity of from 0.05 to 5.0 dl/g (in N-methylpyrrolidone at a temperature of 30° C., concentration: 0.5 g/dl) and ring-closing it, and having a repeating unit represented by the general formula (2). Further, the present invention relates to a liquid crystal alignment film containing at least 1 mol % of the above repeating unit.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a liquid crystal alignment treating agent which comprises a polyimide resin prepared from a diamine including an aromatic diamine having at least one linear alkyl group of at least 6 carbon atoms per benzene ring as the essential component and a tetracarboxylic acid and its derivative.The liquid crystal alignment treating agent obtained in accordance with the present invention comprises a polyimide resin having an alkyl group on a side chain, and accordingly provides a liquid crystal-aligned film containing liquid crystal molecules stably having an enhanced inclined alignment angle (tilt angle) to a substrate.
摘要:
An agent for vertical orientation treatment consisting essentially of a polyimide which contains a linear alkyl group having at least 12 carbon atoms in an amount of at least 5% by weight of the alkyl group to the total weight of the polyimide, and which, when a coating film of the polyimide is formed on a substrate, has a surface energy of not more than 38 dyn/cm.
