Abstract

Improvement of LC mixtures can be realized by the development of new molecules in combination with the identification of advanced mixture concepts. By new high-polar single materials rotational viscosity has recently been improved significantly. Now, a new LC mixture concept for IPS and FFS technology has been identified which additionally improves switching time by up to 10%. This advanced concept is based on a more efficient usage of high-polar materials and Super Low Viscous (SLV) compounds and simultaneous reduction of less efficient materials.
