Description

A colorant compound, and a colorant material comprising the same
This application claims priority to a Korean patent application No. 10- 2015-0102683 filed on July 20, 2015, the whole content of this application being incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to novel colorant compounds based on triarylmethane substructure, and methods for preparing the same. The present invention also concerns colorant compositions for color filter comprising the same, and display devices equipped with such color filter. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Color filters are widely used in various applications, particularly used in display devices, such as liquid crystal display (LCD) and organic light-emitting display (OLED) and the like. Due to rapid progression of the display
technologies, further improvement of the color filter, especially in terms of brightness, contrast ratio, and color reproduciability, is required in the art.
When forming the color filter, a color composition having a colorant material comprising a pigment and/or a dye is often used. Pigment usually shows better stability against heat and/or environment, but an achievable brightness is often insufficient compared with dye. On the other hand, when dye is used as the color filter colorant, satisfactory brightness of the color filter may be attained, but its stability, especially thermal stability, and/or contrast ratio are often insufficient.
Particularly, a dyestuff having a triarylmethane structure is believed to be a good candidate for the color filter application. However, its stability, especially thermal stability, is not high enough to endure high-temperature process(es) of color filter fabrication. PCT International patent application publication No. WO 2012/144521 Al suggests a colorant dispersion liquid, a colored resin composition for use in color filters, a color filter formed using said colored resin composition for use in color filters; and a liquid crystal display device and an organic light-emitting display device that have said color filter. In particular, it discloses the colorant dispersion liquid containing a colorant of the dimerized triarylmethane structure having the chemical formula below.
