(25) As can be seen from the above table, comparing Comparative Examples 1-1 to 1-13 with Examples 1-1 to 1-10, none of the low-temperature reliabilities of the compositions in which the monomer of formula I or the monomer of formula II is used alone can achieve criteria, whereas the low-temperature reliabilities of the compositions in which the monomer of formula II and the monomer of formula I are used can achieve the criteria.
(26) The non-benzene ring structures in formula I and formula II can increase the solubilities of the polymerizable monomers. It is an essential component in the polymerizable liquid crystal composition.
(27) Experiment 2. Evaluation of Conversion Rate of Polymerizable Liquid Crystal Compositions
(28) Determination of rate of polymerization of polymerizable liquid crystal compositions added to different liquid crystal parents
(29) 4000 ppm of single component polymerizable compound RM1-6 is added to test parents 1-4, respectively; and for comparison, a polymerizable liquid crystal composition is added in equal quantity to test parents 1-4, respectively; liquid crystal media are prepared by the liquid crystal medium preparation method mentioned above, the liquid crystal media are filled into liquid crystal cells, a PSA panel process 1 is simulated, and the rates of polymerization thereof are determined, with the specific conditions being: UV1: 72 mW/cm.sup.2@365 nm, 100 s; furthermore, the liquid crystal cells are cut open for HPLC analysis, and the results of the rate of polymerization under UV1 conditions are compared and as shown in the following table.
(30) TABLE-US-00008 UV1 Experiment conversion number Sample composition rate (%) Comparative Parent 1 RM-1 (0.4%) 87 Example 2-1 Comparative RM-3 (0.4%) 55 Example 2-2 Comparative RM-5 (0.4%) 31 Example 2-3 Example 2-1 RM-1 (0.3%) + RM-5 (0.1%) 80 Example 2-2 RM-3 (0.3%) + RM-1 (0.1%) 49 Comparative Parent 2 RM-2 (0.4%) 85 Example 2-4 Comparative RM-4 (0.4%) 64 Example 2-5 Comparative RM-5 (0.4%) 33 Example 2-6 Example 2-3 RM-2 (0.2%) + RM-5 (0.2%) 62 Example 2-4 RM-4 (0.2%) + RM-5 (0.2%) 49 Comparative Parent 3 RM-1 (0.4%) 90 Example 2-7 Comparative RM-3 (0.4%) 59 Example 2-8 Comparative RM-5 (0.4%) 33 Example 2-9 Example 2-5 RM-1 (0.3%) + RM-5 (0.1%) 78 Example 2-6 RM-3 (0.3%) + RM-1 (0.1%) 53 Example 2-7 RM-1 (0.2%) + RM-3 (0.1%) + 74 RM-5 (0.1%) Comparative Parent 4 RM-3 (0.4%) 62 Example 2-10 Comparative RM-4 (0.4%) 68 Example 2-11 Comparative RM-5 (0.4%) 35 Example 2-12 Example 2-8 RM-3 (0.36%) + RM-5 (0.04%) 60 Example 2-9 RM-4 (0.36%) + RM-5 (0.04%) 66
(31) As can be seen from the above table, comparing Comparative Examples 2-1 to 2-12 with Examples 2-1 to 2-9, the rates of polymerization of those having the same RM in different parents are different, which is in line with general industry knowledge, and also brings challenges in terms of the types and quantities of polymers added to the LCDs to different LCD manufacturers when carrying out liquid crystal formulation. Overall, the conversion rate of the polymerizable compound of formula I is higher than that of the polymerizable compound of formula II, and the conversion rate of the polymerizable compound of formula I is too fast, resulting in a risk of forming broken bright spots, so that it is not suitable for use alone. By means of the polymerizable composition provided by the present invention formed by the adjustment of the polymerizable compounds of formula I and formula II, the effects of different rates of polymerization can be achieved.
(32) Furthermore, it can be found that after the polymerization and mixing of different components, the rate of polymerization thereof does not lie in a simple weighted average relationship, wherein among the components, some tend towards the fast components after being promoted by each other, some have no effect, some tend towards the slow components, and some may tend to be slower than the slowest component due to being diluted with each other; therefore, it is very important to carry out the adjustment of the polymerizable liquid crystal composition.
(33) Experiment 3. Evaluation of Reliability and Pretilt Angle of Polymerizable Liquid Crystal Compositions
(34) The same liquid crystal compositions as in Experiment 2 are used, wherein the small number liquid crystal components in the samples of Example 3 are the same as the small number liquid crystal components in Example 2, e.g., the liquid crystal component in Example 3-2 is equivalent to that in Example 2-2.
(35) PSA panel process 2 is completed on the basis of Experiment 2, with the specific conditions being: UV2: 5 mW/cm.sup.2@365 nm, and 100 min, and the final conversion rate, voltage holding ratio (VHR), and pretilt angle thereof are tested, wherein due to the PSVA mode, the pretilt angle is actually evaluated by using a 90-measured value during the evaluation.
(36) TABLE-US-00009 UV1 UV2 Experiment conversion conversion Pretilt angle number rate (%) rate (%) (°) VHR Comparative 87 99 87.8 99.1 Example 3-1 Comparative 55 90 88.9 99.0 Example 3-2 Comparative 31 76 89.0 99.3 Example 3-3 Example 3-1 80 98 88.8 99.5 Example 3-2 49 87 88.9 99.7 Comparative 85 99 87.6 99.0 Example 3-4 Comparative 64 93 88.1 99.3 Example 3-5 Comparative 33 77 89.3 99.1 Example 3-6 Example 3-3 62 92 88.7 99.4 Example 3-4 49 87 88.3 99.5 Comparative 90 99 87.3 99.1 Example 3-7 Comparative 59 90 88.1 99.3 Example 3-8 Comparative 33 77 88.9 99.2 Example 3-9 Example 3-5 78 96 88.4 99.5 Example 3-6 53 88 88.6 99.6 Example 3-7 74 94 88.6 99.5 Comparative 62 97 87.8 99.1 Example 3-10 Comparative 68 94 87.9 99.4 Example 3-11 Comparative 35 76 88.3 99.2 Example 3-12 Example 3-8 60 97 88.6 99.5 Example 3-9 66 82 88.6 99.6
(37) As can be seen from Comparative Examples 3-1 to 3-12 and Examples 3-1 to 3-9, although the difference in conversion rate after UV1 is relatively large, the difference in conversion rate after UV2 is decreased; furthermore, the final pretilt angles of samples with similar conversion rates are also different; the conversion rates of some of the single component samples of formula I are too fast, and uneven sample particles may cause the pretilt angle thereof to be too large, thereby forming a large Bump, easily causing light leakage; however, the mixed samples to which formula II is added have a relatively stable pretilt angle, can suppress the generation of larger particles, contributing to the stability of the pretilt angle. Therefore, under the premise of satisfying the processes of LCD manufacturers, the polymer particles are uniform, and the pretilt angle is appropriate, which are the characteristics of the adjustment of the polymerizable liquid crystal mixture. The voltage holding ratio (VHR) data obtained by the tested samples are all excellent, and the data of the examples in which polymerizable liquid crystal compositions of components of formula I and formula II are added to the same parent for comparison (for different parents, direct comparison is impossible) are significantly preferred.
(38) Experiment 4. Evaluation of Reliability of Functional Additives on Polymerizable Liquid Crystal Compositions
(39) On the basis of Experiment 3, the same liquid crystal compositions as those in Comparative Example 3-12, Example 3-5 and Example 3-7 are selected for an aging test; polymerizable compounds are polymerized by means of ultraviolet irradiation, and tested under the conditions of ultraviolet light, a high temperature, etc. for the voltage holding ratios (VHR) thereof; in addition, by adding functional additives to Example 3-5 and Example 3-7, the voltage holding ratios (VHR) of Examples 4-1 to 4-6 are further investigated under the conditions of ultraviolet light, a high temperature, etc.
(40) TABLE-US-00010 VHR VHR (high Experiment VHR (ultra- temper- number Composition (initial) violet) ature) Comparative Comparative 99.2 95.2 93.7 Example 4-1 Example 3-12 Comparative Example 3-5 99.5 97.2 97.1 Example 4-2 Example 4-1 Example 3-5 + 200 99.2 97.6 99.0 ppm of Additive-1 Example 4-2 Example 3-5 + 100 99.3 99.0 97.8 ppm of Additive-2 Example 4-3 Example 3-5 + 100 99.1 98.5 98.7 ppm of Additive-1 + 100 ppm of Additive-2 Comparative Example 3-7 99.5 97.4 97.6 Example 4-3 Example 4-4 Example 3-7 + 200 99.2 97.7 98.9 ppm of Additive-1 Example 4-5 Example 3-7 + 100 99.2 99.1 98.1 ppm of Additive-2 Example 4-6 Example 3-7 + 200 99.1 98.7 99.0 ppm of Additive-1 + 100 ppm of Additive-2
(41) As can be seen from Comparative Examples 4-1 to 4-3, the VHR after ultraviolet irradiation and the VHR after high temperature of the samples are significantly reduced as compared with the initial VHR thereof; and the reductions in the VHRs after ultraviolet irradiation and high temperature of Comparative Example 4-2 and Comparative Example 4-3 manufactured from Example 3-5 and Example 3-7 are smaller than those of Comparative Example 4-1, indicating that the VHRs after ultraviolet irradiation and high temperature thereof can be improved after being mixed with RM;
(42) in addition, as can be seen from Examples 4-1 to 4-6, the VHR after high temperature and the VHR after ultraviolet irradiation are both improved after the addition of additive-1 and additive-2 in the liquid crystal composition, and the effects of improvement of additive-1 and additive-2 are not the same, wherein additive-1 focuses on improving the VHR after high temperature, and improves the VHR after ultraviolet irradiation, but the amplitude of the improvement is not as good as the effect after high temperature; and additive-2 focuses on improving the VHR after ultraviolet irradiation, and improves the VHR after high temperature, but the amplitude of the improvement is not as good as the effect after ultraviolet irradiation; however, using additive-1 and additive-2 in combination can achieve more ideal results; of course, the addition of the additives will cause the initial value to decrease, and the addition amount and type thereof should be used according to specific circumstances.
