Abstract
ABSTRACTIn order to study the effect of benzophenone (BP) group in the main chain on the photo-alignment behaviour of cinnamoyl groups, a novel photosensitive polyimide (BTDA-PI-CA) is synthesised by 3,3ʹ,4,4ʹ-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA), 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)-hexafluoropropane (AHHFP) and cinnamoyl chloride. The BTDA-PI-CA films exhibit good alignment performance after the non-polarised ultraviolet ageing lamp exposure, which is due to the polyimide with BP group can be used to improve the photosensitivity. Moreover, the thermal stability of the LC cells is pretty good and the pretilt angle of the LC cells is 0.5, which can be used in parallel mode LCD.
