Abstract

The present invention provides a coating composition and a coating film that comprises a binder containing a UV-curable functional group, a compound containing a fluorine UV-curable functional group, a photoinitiator; and nano-sized particles. The coating film according to the present invention has excellent abrasion resistance and contamination resistance such as fingerprint trace removability and scribbling resistance.

Claims (31)

1. A coating composition comprising:

a binder containing a UV-curable functional group;

a compound containing a fluorine UV-curable functional group;

a photoinitiator; and

nano-sized particles,

wherein the compound containing the fluorine UV-curable functional group comprises a compound that is Formula 2:

wherein X is F or CF 3 , Z is H or CH 3 , j and m are each an integer in the range of 1 to 16, k and n are each an integer in the range of 0 to 5.

2. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , wherein on the basis of 100 parts by weight of the binder containing the UV-curable functional group, the content of the compound containing the fluorine UV-curable functional group is in the range of 0.5˜20 parts by weight, the content of the nano-sized particles is in the range of 0.5˜50 parts by weight, and the content of the photoinitiator is in the range of 1˜20 parts by weight.

3. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the binder containing the UV-curable functional group comprises multi-functional or mono-functional monomers or oligomers of acrylates, methacrylates, or vinyls.

4. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the average particle diameter of the nano-sized particles is in the range of 0.5˜50 nm.

5. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the nano-sized particles are selected from the group consisting of silica, alumina, titania, zirconia and magnesium fluoride.

6. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the nano-sized particles are subjected to surface treatment by using a material that is selected from the group consisting of a silane coupling agent, an epoxy compound, a hydroxyl group-containing compound and an isocyanate compound.

7. The coating composition as set forth in claim 1 , further comprising:

a solvent.

8. A coating film that is formed by using the coating composition according to claim 1 , comprising:

a binder containing a UV-curable functional group;

a compound containing a fluorine UV-curable functional group;

a photoinitiator; and

nano-sized particles.

9. The coating film as set forth in claim 8 , wherein the thickness of the film is in the range of 0.5˜300 μm.

10. The coating film as set forth in claim 8 , wherein a substrate is provided on a side of the coating film.

11. A method for producing a coating film, wherein the method comprises the steps of:

coating the coating composition according to claim 1 on a substrate;

drying the coated coating composition; and

photocuring the coated coating composition.

12. The method for producing a coating film as set forth in claim 11 , wherein the substrate is made of a material that is selected from the group consisting of polyester, triacetyl cellulose, an olefin copolymer and polymethyl methacrylate.

13. The method for producing a coating film as set forth in claim 11 , wherein the thickness is in the range of 0.5˜300 μm while the coating is performed.

14. The method for producing a coating film as set forth in claim 11 , wherein the photocuring is performed by using irradiation of ultraviolet rays in an amount in the range of 0.05˜2 J/cm 2 .

15. A display device comprising:

the coating film according to claim 8 .

16. The display device as set forth in claim 15 , wherein the display device is selected from the group consisting of a liquid crystal display, an organic light emitting display (OLED), a plasma display and a mobile phone window.
