<p>A liquid crystal aligning agent containing at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of polyamic acids, polyimides, and polyamic acid esters, said polymer having a group represented by general formula (1) or (2). In general formula (1), R1 and R2 are each independently hydrogen or a monovalent organic group, or R1 and R2 may be bonded to each other to form a ring; R3 is fluoro or cyano; a is an integer of 0 to 4; and * is a free valency, while in general formula (2), R4 is C1-40 alkyl or a C3-40 monovalent organic group containing an alicyclic group, with the proviso that the hydrogen atoms of the alkyl may be partially or completely replaced by fluorine atoms; R5 is fluoro or cyano; b is an integer of 0 to 4; and * is a free valency.</p> |
