Abstract

The present invention relates to a treating agent for liquid crystal alignment, which is an agent for liquid crystal alignment to be used for a method in which polarized ultraviolet rays or electron rays are irradiated on a polymer thin film formed on a substrate in a predetermined direction relative to the substrate plane, and said substrate is used for aligning liquid crystal without rubbing treatment, wherein said agent for liquid crystal alignment contains a polymer compound having photochemically reactive groups in the polymer main chain and a glass transition temperature of at least 200.degree. C.
