  • Patent number: 6046303
    Abstract: The invention herein relates to a soluble polyimide resin for a liquid crystal alignment layer and the manufacturing method thereof, wherein a mixture of aliphatic tetracarboxylic acid dianhydrides and aromatic diamine having aliphatic side chains are used to yield a soluble polyimide resin which has superior heat-resistance, solubility, surface hardness, transparency and liquid crystal alignment capacity.The soluble polyimide resin having alkoxy substituents, for a liquid crystal layer, according to the present invention, is manufactured by adding a mixture of dioxotetrahydrofuran 3-methylcyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic dianhydride, which is an aliphatic tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride and aromatic tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride to a mixture of aromatic diamine, and said dioxotetrahydrofuran 3-methylcyclohexene- 1,2-dicarboxylic dianhydride is used in the amount of 50 to 99 mol % to the total amount of anhydrides.
