Provided are liquid crystal compositions containing one or more compounds represented by the general formula (L) and three or more dichroic dyes selected from azo compounds, and a guest-host liquid crystal display element using the same or dimming elements. The liquid crystal composition of the present invention simultaneously satisfies high contrast ratio, high solubility, high nematic-isotropic transition temperature (T NI ), low birefringence anisotropy (Δn) effective for high light resistance and high heat resistance ), by using the liquid crystal composition of the present invention, it is possible to obtain a liquid crystal display element or dimming that has a good black appearance, high contrast, high display quality, and high practicability at the same time element. |
