Abstract

The invention relates to a color filter composition comprising a) a photoresist binder, b) a transparent pigment, c) optionally a solvent and/or optionally a photoinitiator or a photolatent catalyst, d) a dispersant which is a polymer or copolymer obtainable by a process comprising the steps of a1) polymerizing in a first step one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of at least one nitroxylether having the structural element wherein X represents a group having at least one carbon atom and is such that the free radical X derived from X is capable of initiating polymerization; or a2) polymerizing in a first step one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of at least one stable free nitroxyl radical and a free radical initiator; wherein at least one monomer used in the steps a1) or a2) is a C₁-C₆ alkyl or hydroxy C₁-C₆ alkyl ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid; and a second step b) comprising the modification of the polymer or copolymer prepared under a1) or a2) by a transesterification reaction, an amidation, hydrolysis or anhydride modification or a combination thereof, and optionally in addition by quaternization.
