Definitions

  • the present invention relates to photocurable as well as Thermally Curable Compositions Suitable for Low Temperature Curing Description
  • the present invention relates to photocurable as well as thermally curable compositions com- prising (i) at least one compound or oligomer carrying at least one ethylenically unsaturated group (A), (ii) at least one thermal radical initiator (B) and (iii) at least one photoinitiator (C), to processes forming either a cured layer or a cured pattern on a substrate using these composi- tions, to the cured layer and the cured pattern, and to devices, preferably printed circuit boards, integrated circuits, color filter arrays, liquid crystal displays, organic light emitting diode (OLED) displays or white organic light emitting diode (WOLED) displays, comprising the cured layer or the cured pattern.
  • OLED organic light emitting diode
  • WOLED white organic light emitting diode
  • compositions that are photocurable as well as thermally curable usually comprise at least one photoinitiator, at least one thermal radical initiator and polymerizable monomers or oligomers carrying ethylenically unsaturated groups. These compositions have many applications for ex- ample as coating composition for wood or can coatings, as adhesive composition, as ink com- position, as 3D-printing composition and as photoresist composition. These compositions are usually first cured by light treatment followed by heat treatment.
  • compositions in particular for coating compositions and photo- resist compositions, that form layers, that are photocurable as well as thermally curable, and which layers can be cured in a process comprising a light treatment and a heat treatment step, wheren the heat treatment step can be performed at temperatures of below 150 °C, or even of below 120 °C.
  • a rather low temperature in the heat treatment step which is generally the step of highest temperature of the whole process, allows the use of heat sensitive substrates such as plastic substrates and/or heat-sensitive composition components such as heat-sensitive dyes.

  • CFAs color filter arrays
  • LCDs liquid-crystal displays
  • OLED organic light emitting diode

  • Photo- lithographic processes comprise the steps of application of the photoresist composition on a substrate to form a layer, light treatment of the layer through a mask, removing either the light- treated parts (positive photoresist) or the not light-treated parts (negative photoresist) of the layer by treatment with a developer to form a pattern, and heat treatment of the pattern on the substrate to increase the resistance, the stability as well as the mechanical strength of the pat- tern.
  • the heat treatment step is commonly also referred to as “post-baking” step. Although it is desired that the temperature of the post-baking step is below 150 °C, or even of below 120 °C, the photoresist composition should also not cure under conditions usually used to remove any solvent prior to the light treatment step.
  • Color filter arrays are composed of various tiny color filters of different color, for example of red, green and blue, which are usually separated by a black matrix, on a transparent substrate. Each color filter array corresponds to one pixel of the displayed image.
