Abstract
A liquid crystal alignment agent containing at least two kinds of polymers selected from the group consisting of polyamic acids and imidized polymers and having a structure obtained by dehydration and ring closure of polyamic acid. In the at least two kinds of polymers contained in the liquid crystal alignment agent, the polymer of higher imidization degree has a smaller surface free energy. The liquid crystal alignment agent gives a liquid crystal display device having less stuck image and high pretilt angle.
