[Project] To provide a cured film-forming composition for forming a cured film having excellent photoreaction efficiency and solvent resistance, and to provide an alignment material for photo-alignment and a retardation material formed using the alignment material. [Solutions] The cured film-forming composition, (A) a compound having any one substituent selected from a photo-alignment group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, and an amino group, (B) at least a part of the nitrogen atom of the amide group is alkoxymethylated or alkyl It contains a thiomethylated polyamide and (C) a crosslinking catalyst. Using this cured film forming composition, a cured film is formed, and an orientation material is formed using the photo-alignment technique. A polymeric liquid crystal is apply|coated on an orientation material, it is made to harden|cure, and retardation material is obtained. |
