The present invention discloses a method for preparing high-melt-strength polylactide resin by two-step reaction, which comprises the following steps: mixing polylactide resin and GMA to obtain a premix; mixing multifunctional reactive monomer, a peroxide initiator and organic solvent to obtain a monomer mixture; and adding the premix and the monomer mixture into a screw extruder in sections, after melting, blending, extruding, cooling, pelletizing and drying to obtain a high melt strength polylactide resin. The method of the present invention has a simple production process, can be adapted to large-scale industrial production, the graft modification reaction is rapid and controllable, and the obtained product is safe without residue and high in purity. The high-melt-strength polylactide resin has a low melt flow index, high complex viscosity and storage modulus, and is a green polymer material with wide application prospects.

Suggested are new adhesion promoters, which are particular suitable for use in displays. Its inclusion in the polymerisable LC mixture results in an excellent adhesion on substrate without colouration over time i.e. compared to amino siloxanes. The new additives have no effect on alignment of LC on the substrate while improving the adhesion.

A resin composition is provided and contains a maleimide compound, a polyphenylene ether compound having an unsaturated double bond in the molecule, a phosphorus-containing compound having a group represented by the following Formula (1) and a group containing a phosphorus atom in the molecule, and a curing agent.
