Display elements using liquid crystals are widely used in watches, calculators, etc. This liquid crystal display element utilizes the optical anisotropy of the liquid crystal material and the galvanic anisotropy tube, and the liquid crystal phase has nematic, night, etc. There are three types: crystal phase, smectic liquid crystal phase, and cholesteric liquid crystal phase. Among them, those using nematic liquid crystal are the most widely used. Namely, they include TN (twisted nematic) type, DS (dynamic scattering type), and guest liquid crystal.・There are host W, DAP types, etc., and it is desirable that the liquid crystal used for each exhibits a liquid crystal phase.Currently, there is no single substance that satisfies such conditions, and several types of liquid crystal storage or Non-liquid crystal substances are mixed and put into practical use.These substances are required to be stable against moisture, light, heat, air, etc., and also have a high threshold voltage and saturation voltage necessary to drive the display element. It is desirable that the viscosity be as low as possible, and that the viscosity be as low as possible in order to increase the response speed.
