Definitions
- the present invention relates to a liquid-crystalline medium, its use for electro-optical purposes and displays containing this medium.
- Liquid crystals are mainly used as dielectrics in display devices, since the optical properties of such substances can be influenced by an applied voltage.
- Electro-optical devices based on liquid crystals are well known to the person skilled in the art and can be based on various effects. Such devices are, for example, cells with dynamic scattering, DAP cells (deformation of aligned phases), guest / host cells, TN cells with a twisted nematic structure, STN cells (super-twisted nematiic), SBE cells ("super birefringence effect”) and OMI cells ("optical mode interference").
- DAP cells deformation of aligned phases
- guest / host cells guest / host cells
- TN cells with a twisted nematic structure STN cells (super-twisted nematiic)
- SBE cells super birefringence effect
- OMI cells optical mode interference
- the liquid crystal materials must have good chemical and thermal stability and good stability against electric fields and electromagnetic radiation. Furthermore, the liquid crystal materials should have a low viscosity and result in short response times, low threshold voltages and a high contrast in the cells. Furthermore, they should have a suitable mesophase at the usual operating temperatures, ie in the widest possible range below and above room temperature, for example a nematic or cholesteric mesophase for the above-mentioned cells. Since liquid crystals are generally used as mixtures of several components, it is important that the components are readily miscible with one another. Other properties, such as electrical conductivity, dielectric anisotropy and optical anisotropy, must meet different requirements depending on the cell type and area of application. For example, materials for cells with a twisted nematic structure should have positive dielectric anisotropy and low electrical conductivity.

- the person skilled in the art can set the birefringence required for a given layer thickness of the MLC display by means of suitable routine selection of the individual components and their proportions by weight.
- the viscosity at 20 ° C is preferably ⁇ 25 mPa.s.
- the nematic phase range is preferably at least 70 °, in particular at least 80 °. This range preferably extends at least from -30 ° to + 70 °.
- the UV stability of the mixtures according to the invention is also considerably better, ie they show a significantly smaller decrease in HR under UV exposure.
- the threshold voltages (V Lh ) achieved are generally ⁇ 1.8 volts, preferably in the range 1.4 to 1.7 volts.
- the media according to the invention are also distinguished by extraordinarily high elastic constants with very favorable viscosity values, which results in distinct advantages over media from the prior art, particularly when used in STN displays.
- the media according to the invention are preferably based on several (preferably two or more) compounds of the formula I, i.e. the proportion of these compounds is> 25%, preferably> 40%.
- - Medium additionally contains one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of the general formulas II, III and IV:
- R alkyl, oxaalkyl, fluoroalkyl or alkenyl
- - Medium additionally contains one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of the general formulas V to VIII:

- alkyl includes straight chain and branched
- Alkyl groups with 1-7 carbon atoms especially the straight-chain groups methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl and heptyl. Groups with 2-5 carbon atoms are generally preferred.
- alkenyl encompasses straight-chain and branched alkenyl groups having 2-7 carbon atoms, in particular the straight-chain groups. Alkenyl groups in particular are C 2 -C 7 -1E-
- alkenyl groups are vinyl, 1E-propenyl, 1E-butenyl, 1E-pentenyl, 1E-hexenyl, 1E-heptenyl, 3-butenyl, 3E-pentenyl, 3E-hexenyl, 3E-heptenyl, 4-pentenyl, 4Z-hexenyl, 4E-hexenyl, 4Z-heptenyl, 5-hexenyl, 6-heptenyl and the like. Groups of up to 5 carbon atoms are generally preferred.

- other positions of the fluorine are not excluded.
- the response times, the threshold voltage, the steepness of the transmission characteristics, etc. can be modified in a desired manner by a suitable choice of the meanings of R, X and Y.
- R, X and Y For example, lE-alkenyl residues, 3E-alkenyl residues, 2E-alkenyloxy residues and the like generally lead to shorter response times, improved nematic tendencies and a higher ratio of the elastic constants k 33

- 4-alkenyl residues, 3-alkenyl residues and the like generally give lower threshold voltages and smaller values of k 33 / k 11 compared to alkyl and alkoxy residues.
- a group -CH 2 CH 2 -in Z 1 or Z 2 generally leads to higher values of k 33 / k 11 compared to a simple covalent bond. Higher values of k 33 / k 11 enable, for example, flatter transmission characteristics in TN cells with 90 ° twist (to achieve gray tones) and steeper transmission characteristics in STN, SBE and OMI cells (higher multiplexability) and vice versa.
- the optimal quantitative ratio of the compounds of the formulas I and II + III + IV largely depends on the desired properties, on the choice of the components of the formulas I, II, III and / or IV and on the choice of further components which may be present. Suitable proportions within the range given above can easily be determined from case to case.
- the total amount of compounds of the formulas I to XII in the mixtures according to the invention is not critical.
