METHOD FOR FORMING SPACER, SPACER AND DISPLAY ELEMENT

摘要

A method for printing and forming a structure of resin and spacer particles on a substrate by a plate-type printing method employing an intaglio, in which the ratio of a resin structure where the spacer particle does not exist is reduced and variation in height of the structure is reduced. A structure containing spacer particles (27) and resin (26) is formed on a substrate (20) by printing ink (24) containing the spacer particles (27) and resin (26) on the substrate (20) by a plate-type printing method employing an intaglio. Aperture diameter W of a recess (19) in the intaglio is 2.1-9.0 times as large as the particle size D of the spacer particles (27) and the depth K of the recess (19) in the intaglio is 0.85-1.7 times as large as the particle size D of the spacer particles (27).
