Fill port seal with first and second photosensitizers
First Claim
1. A liquid crystal display device comprising a pair of substrates which are placed in parallel and at least one of which is transparent, the peripheries of said substrates being sealed by a sealant to form an inner cavity with a fill port, said inner cavity being filled with a liquid crystal composition, the inner surfaces of said substrates facing each other having electrodes and orientation controlling films thereon, and said fill port being sealed by using a photo-setting resin composition comprising an acrylic or methacrylic type resin as a major resin component and two or more photosensitizers different in quality, wherein the photosensitizers different in quality are comprised of at least one first photosensitizer which can reduce the curing time of the resin composition greatly and at least one second photosensitizer which can reduce the curing time of the resin composition not so greatly as the first photosensitizer, and wherein the at least one first photosensitizer is selected from the group consisting of β
- -naphthalene sulfochloride, 1-butylnaphthalene-sulfonic acid-2-chloride, 1,4-dibutylnaphthalene sulfonic acid-2-chloride, p,p-ditolyl disulfide, β
,β

Abstract
A liquid crystal display device, wherein a fill port for inserting a liquid crystal composition thereinto is sealed by using a photo-setting resin composition comprising an acrylic or methacrylic type resin as a major resin component and two or more photosensitizers different in quality, is excellent in reliability and the sealed portion of the fill port can sufficiently and uniformly be cured both in surface and inner portions by irradiation of light in a short time.
