Curable composition, cured product thereof, and laminated material
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a curable resin composition, cured products thereof, and laminated materials. The curable composition comprises: (A-1) acicular oxide particles, the oxide being an oxide of at least one element selected from the group consisting of silicon, aluminum, zirconium, titanium, zinc, germanium, indium, tin, antimony, and cerium, (B) a compound having two or more polymerizable unsaturated groups, (C) a photopolymerization initiator is provided. After cure, the composition has excellent scratch resistance. In addition, it may have excellent antistatic characteristics and transparency. In a preferred embodiment the composition also comprises (A-2) particles other than the acicular particles (A-1), being oxide of at least one element selected from the group consisting of silicon, aluminum, zirconium, titanium, zinc, germanium, indium, tin, antimony, and cerium.
