Polyurethane-silica composite-based coating composition, polyurethane-silica composite film, and method of preparing the same
Disclosed is a coating composition which includes: polyurethane; and amphiphilic nanoparticles having an amine functional group and a fluorine functional group in their structure. Further provided are a polyurethane-silica composite film including e coating composition and a method of preparing the same.
1. A coating composition comprising:
polyurethane; and
amphiphilic silica nanoparticles that are fluorine-amine surface-treated amphiphilic silica particles having (i) a fluorine functional group introduced in a first surface treatment and (ii) an amine functional group introduced in a second surface treatment, with a relatively large amount of fluorine functional group compared to amine functional group;
wherein the fluorine-amine surface-treated amphiphilic silica particles are mixed with polyurethane to form an uneven surface structure through phase separation, and
wherein the coating composition comprises the amphiphilic silica nanoparticles in an amount of 0.3 wt % to 10.7 wt % based on the total weight of the coating composition.
2. The coating composition of claim 1 , further comprising a curing agent.
3. The coating composition of claim 1 , further comprising one or more additives selected from the group consisting of curing accelerators, surface conditioners, UV absorbers, adhesion promoters, and defoamers.
4. A polyurethane-silica composite film comprising:
a polyurethane film; and
a silica layer formed on the polyurethane film, wherein the silica layer comprises amphiphilic silica nanoparticles that are fluorine-amine surface-treated amphiphilic silica particles having (i) a fluorine functional group introduced in a first surface treatment and (ii) an amine functional group introduced in a second surface treatment, and with a relatively large amount of fluorine functional group compared to amine functional group,
wherein the fluorine-amine surface-treated amphiphilic silica particles are used to form an uneven surface structure on the film surface through phase separation in the polyurethane-silica composite film, and
wherein the polyurethane-silica composite film comprises the amphiphilic silica nanoparticles in an amount of 0.3 wt % to 10.7 wt % based on the total weight of the polyurethane-silica composite film.
