Field of the invention

[0001] The present invention relates to an anthraquinone compound which is suitable for forming a color filter used for a liquid crystal display device, a method for synthesis the anthraquinone compound, a composition containing a resin and the anthraquinone compound, an article having a polymer layer formed from the composition and a color filter formed from the composition.

Background of the invention

[0002] Liquid crystal display (LCD) currently dominates the display market because of its excellent performance and small thickness. As a key component of LCD device, translucent color filters play the critical role of generating Red/Green/Blue lights by filtering white light from a back sheet. This capacity originates from the Red/Green/Blue colorants comprised in color filter units. Each colorant possesses a characteristic absorbance spectrum and will show one of the three primary colors when illuminated with white visible light-wavelength ranges from 380 nm to 780 nm. The controlled mixing of primary colors from each color filter unit produced by colorant will generate the final color of pixels. The efficiency of color filter directly impacts the LCD's performance.

[0003] Normally, the commercialized colorants used in a LCD color filter are pigments, because they have good stability against heat, light and chemicals. Unfortunately pigments must be ground into micro/nano particles before being added into a color resist to make a color filter due to their intrinsic insolubility property. When the color filter is illuminated, light scattering will take place on these particles with diameter of about 100 nm. As a result transmittance will be lowered, which means more light energy must be applied to provide enough brightness of the LCD.

[0004] In contrast to pigments, dyes are soluble in many materials which ensure that they can be dispersed at molecular level. If dyes are used in a color filter instead of pigments, light scattering will be significantly reduced. Thus it could be imagined that the dye based color filter will have higher transmittance and energy cost will thus be reduced greatly. However, dye's stability against light, heat and chemical resistance is generally inferior to pigments. As a result, at present, the commercialized LCD color filters contain pigments while a few LCD contain a hybrid (or combination) of pigment and dye.

[0005] Some anthraquinone dyes are used for color filters of a LCD. Some anthraquinone dye has been proposed for color filters, see e.g. CN102298263 A, WO2006024617A, US6713641B, US3918976 and US6593483B, but those dyes generally have insufficient thermal stability or are insoluble in common organic solvent for a color filter.

[0006] Although the anthraquinone structure is stable, the low solubility of anthraquinone dyes in an organic solvent prevents the use of anthraquinone dyes for a color filter. Accordingly, an anthraquinone dye which is stable and satisfies the solubility in an organic solvent at the same time is still desired.

Summary of the invention

[0007] Inventors of this invention have now found that new type of anthraquinone compound which is stable and has good solubility in an organic solvent.

[0008] Therefore, one aspect of the invention relates to an anthraquinone compound represented by the general formula (1)

[0012] Further aspects of this invention relate to a composition comprising the anthraquinone compound and a resin or a reaction product of the

anthraquinone compound with a resin; an article having a polymer layer formed from the composition and a color filter formed from the composition.

In addition, the allyl groups within the anthraquinone compounds can react with resin or other components in a color filter, so the color filter comprising the compound of this invention achieve higher thermal stability.

[0036] <Composition>

The composition of the present invention comprises at least one compound as recited in formula (1) and a resin. The resin is preferably alkaline soluble resin. The compounds represented by formula (1) can react with a resin, because the anthraquinone compound has allyl groups within the molecule. Therefore, in such cases the composition of the present invention comprises a reaction product of the compounds represented by formula (1) with a resin. The composition preferably additionally comprises a cross-linker (cross-linking agent), a solvent and a radiation-sensitive compound such as a photo initiator. The composition can form a film useful for a color filter.

The preferable content is less than 55 wt%, more preferably less than 45 wt%, most preferably less than 35 wt% based on the total solid contents of the composition.

[0038] The composition of the present invention can comprise other coloring materials in addition to the compound as recited in formula (1). Normally the use of additional coloring material is determined from the required spectral characteristics of a material to be formed from the composition.

[0039] The alkaline soluble resin is also known as 'binder' in this technical art. Preferably, the alkaline soluble resin is dissolved in an organic solvent. The alkaline soluble resin can be developed with an alkaline solution such as tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide aqueous solution (TMAH) after forming a film.

[0040] The alkaline soluble resin (binder) is normally a linear organic polymer. The binder optionally has a crosslinkable group within the polymer structure. When the composition of the present invention is used as a negative type photosensitive composition, such crosslinkable group can react and form crosslink by exposure or heating so that the binder becomes a polymer which is insoluble in alkaline. [0041] Many kinds of binder are known in this art. Examples of such binder are; (meth)acrylic resin, acrylamide resin, styrenic resin, polyepoxyde, polysiloxane resin, phenolic resin, novolak resin, and co-polymer or mixture of those resins. In this application, (meth)acrylic resin (polymer) includes copolymer of (meth)acrylic acid or ester thereof and one or more of other polymerizable monomers. For example, acrylic resin can be polymerized from acrylic acid and/or acrylic ester and any other polymerizable monomers such as styrene, substituted styrene, maleic acid or glycidyl (meth)acrylate.

[0043] The amount of the binder used in the composition of the present invention is preferably at least 10 wt%, more preferably at least 20 wt% based on the total solid contents of the composition. At the same time, the preferable amount of the binder is less than 80 wt%, more preferably less than 50 wt%, the most preferably less than 30 wt% based on the total solid contents of the composition.

[0044] The composition of this invention optionally further comprises a cross-linking agent to obtain a further hardened material. It is also known as a radical-polymerizable monomer. When the composition of this invention is used as a negative type photosensitive composition, such cross-linking agent can form a crosslink by exposure or heating and contribute to get a further hardened material. Well known cross-linking agent can be used for the composition of this invention. Examples of cross-linking agents are epoxy resin, dipentaerythritolhexaacrylate (DPHA) and substituted nitrogen containing compound such as melamine, urea, guanamine or glycol uril.

[0045] The composition of this invention optionally further comprises a solvent. The solvent to be used for the composition is not limited, but preferably selected from the solubility of components of the composition such as alkaline soluble resin or anthraquinone compound. Examples of the preferable solvent include esters such as ethyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, amyl formate, butyl propionate or 3-ethoxypropionate, ethers such as di ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether or propylene glycol ethyl ether acetate and ketones such as methylethylketone, cyclohexanone or 2-heptanone. [0046] When the composition of this invention is a negative type radiation-sensitive composition, the composition preferably comprises a photo initiator. Photo initiator also called as photopolymerization initiator and including radical initiator, cationic initiator and anionic initiator. Examples of a photo initiator include; oxime esther type initiator, sulfonium salts initiator, iodide salts initiator and sulfonate initiator.

[0047] The composition of this invention can comprise other radiation-sensitive compound such as a radiation sensitive resin or a photo acid generator.

[0048] <Polymer layer>

The composition of the present invention described above can form a polymer layer on an article. The polymer layer also described as 'polymer film' in the specification. The polymer layer formed from the composition has excellent thermal stability. Without wishing to be bound to the theory, the inventors of this invention expect that the anthraquinone compounds represented by formula (1) can react with polymerizable compounds in the composition during those are heated, because the anthraquinone compound has allyl groups within the molecule. Those reactions will improve thermal stability of the anthraquinone compounds of formula (1) due to their increased molecular weight. Examples of those polymerizable compounds include a resin, a cross-linking agent and the anthraquinone compound itself (self polymerization).

[0049] The content of the compound as recited in formula (1) in the polymer layer is depend on the required color of the film, and it is basically the same as the content of the compound as recited in formula (1) in the composition. The polymer layer also comprises an alkaline soluble resin which is disclosed above.

[0050] The polymer layer optionally comprises a photo initiator, a photo acid generator, a radiation sensitive resin and a crosslink agent disclosed above.

[0051] The method of forming the polymer layer on an article comprises the steps of; mixing the compound as recited in formula (1) with an alkaline soluble resin and solvent, coating the mixture on an article which supports a layer and heating the article to form a polymer layer (film). Optionally, the method comprises one or more of steps of exposing a layer (film) or curing a layer to form crosslinked stable layer.

[0052] The alkaline soluble resin and the solvent used to the method for forming the polymer layer are same as the one disclosed above.

[0053] Examples of an article which supports a layer (film) are glass, metal, silicon substrate and metal oxide coated material.

[0054] Any coating method can be used for the coating step, such as rotation coating, cast coating or roll coating.

[0055] The thickness of the layer (film) varies depending on the required properties of the film. The thickness of the layer is 0.1 to 5 micron, preferably 0.5 to 3 micron.

[0056] The layer (film) has high transmittance and thermal stability from the properties of the anthraquinone compound of this invention. The anthraquinone compound can be dissolved in an organic solvent, and has high thermal stability. Therefore the compound does not prevent the transmittance of a film and does not decrease the thermal stability of the film. Such property is important for a color filter of LCD. Therefore, the layer (film) of the present invention is useful as a color filter of LCD.

[0057] <Color filter>

The color filer of this invention is formed from the composition comprising at least one compound as recited in formula (1) and a resin. The layer (film) disclosed above can be used for the color filter. Normally, a color filter has multiple units which made from colored films comprising Red/Green/Blue colorants.

[0058] The content of the compound as recited in formula (1) in a colored film for a color filter is basically the same as the content in the film disclosed above.

[0059] A film used for a color filter can be formed by the following steps; coating a solution comprising the compound as recited in formula (1), binder, a photo initiator and solvent to form a radiation sensitive composition layer on a material, exposing the layer through a patterned mask, and developing the layer with an alkaline solution. Moreover, a curing step of further heating and /or exposing the layer after developing step may be conducted as needed.

[0060] Since a color filter comprises three colored films which comprise R/G/B colorant, the steps of forming each colored film are repeated, then a color filter having such three colored films are obtained.
