[0027] The present specification will be described in more detail below.
[0028] One embodiment of the present invention provides a curable composition comprising: a silicone sol containing one or more first functional groups including a hydroxyl group and one or more second functional groups including a reactive functional group other than a hydroxyl group; and an initiator.
[0029] A curable composition according to one embodiment of the present invention may have excellent dispersion stability. In addition, the curable composition can effectively realize a coating layer having excellent adhesion, chemical resistance, and optical properties.
[0030] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the silicone sol may include a first functional group and a second functional group. The first functional group may refer to a functional group group comprising one or more hydroxyl groups. Specifically, the first functional group may be a hydroxyl group group comprising one or more hydroxyl groups. Through the hydroxyl groups included in the first functional group of the silicone sol, the adhesion of the curable composition to a substrate may be improved. Specifically, the hydroxyl group contained in the silicone sol can form covalent bonds with Si-OH and Si-O present on the surface of the substrate, thereby effectively increasing the bonding and adhesion of the curable composition to glass during coating. At this time, the substrate may be glass or a plastic film. At this time, the plastic film may include polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film, polyethylene (PE) film, etc., but the type of plastic film is not limited thereto. A coating layer comprising a cured product of the above-mentioned curable composition can be provided on the surface of the above-mentioned substrate and utilized as a protective coating layer, a decoration coating layer, etc.
[0031] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the second functional group may include one or more reactive functional groups other than a hydroxyl group. The reactive functional group may induce a curing reaction by the initiator. Through the reactive functional group included in the second functional group of the silicone sol, the curable composition can stably form a coating layer.
[0032] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group in the silicone sol may be 1:9 to 9:1. That is, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group may be 1 to 9:9 to 1. Specifically, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group may be 1:9 to 1:1, and the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group may be 9:1 to 1:1. More specifically, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group may be 1:9 to 1:1, 2:8 to 1:1, 3:7 to 1:1, 4:6 to 1:1, 9:1 to 1:1, 8:2 to 1:1, 7:3 to 1:1, or 6:4 to 1:1. When the ratio of the first functional group and the second functional group is within the aforementioned range, the adhesion of the curable composition to glass can be improved. In addition, the curable composition can effectively realize a coating layer having excellent adhesion, chemical resistance, and optical properties.
[0033] At this time, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group may refer to the molar ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group. The ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group contained in the silicon sol can be calculated through 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Specifically, the area of the peaks representing the first functional group and the second functional group in the NMR analysis results of the silicon sol can be calculated through integration, and the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group can be obtained using the calculated area.
[0034] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group in the silicone sol may exceed 1.

By using the silicone sol in which the ratio of the first functional group to the second functional group exceeds 1, the curable composition can effectively realize a coating layer having excellent adhesion, chemical resistance, and optical properties.
[0035] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the second functional group may include at least one reactive functional group selected from an amino group, a (meth)acrylate group, a vinyl group, an epoxy group, and a thiol group. Specifically, the second functional group may include at least one selected from a (meth)acrylate group and an epoxy group.

[0036] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the second functional group may include at least one non-reactive functional group among a straight-chain or branched-chain alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms and an aromatic group having 6 to 30 carbon atoms. Specifically, the alkyl group may be straight-chain, and the number of contained carbon atoms may be 1 to 8, 1 to 6, 1 to 4, or 1 to 2. Additionally, the aromatic group may be a phenyl group. When the silicone sol includes the non-reactive functional group, the curable composition can effectively provide a coating layer with improved mechanical properties, such as hardness.

That is, the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group may be 1 to 9:9 to 1. Specifically, the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group may be 1:9 to 1:1, and the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group may be 9:1 to 1:1. Specifically, the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group may be 1:9 to 1:1, 2:8 to 1:1, 3:7 to 1:1, 4:6 to 1:1, 9:1 to 1:1, 8:2 to 1:1, 7:3 to 1:1, or 6:4 to 1:1. When the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group is within the aforementioned range, the curable composition can effectively realize a coating layer having excellent hardness, adhesion, chemical resistance, and optical properties.
[0038] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of a reactive functional group to a non-reactive functional group included in the second functional group may exceed 1 in the silicone sol. That is, the “reactive functional group / non-reactive functional group” included in the second functional group may exceed 1. Specifically, the ratio of the reactive functional group to the non-reactive functional group may be 9 to 1.1:1, 8 to 1.1:1, 7 to 1.1:1, 6 to 1.1:1, 5 to 1.1:1, 4 to 1.1:1, 3 to 1.1:1, or 2 to 1.1:1.

When the ratio of the size of the sol particles included in the silicone sol to the size of the colorant is within the aforementioned range, the colorant can be dispersed more homogeneously and stably in the curable composition. Furthermore, by adjusting the ratio of the size of the sol particles included in the silicone sol to the aforementioned range, the curable composition can easily realize a coating layer having improved optical properties.

[0258] Referring to Tables 7 to 9 above, it was confirmed that the curable compositions prepared in Examples 3-1 to 3-32 exhibited excellent dispersion stability, hardness, adhesion, chemical resistance, and optical properties.
[0259] On the other hand, it was confirmed that the physical properties of Comparative Examples 3-1 to 3-6 were inferior compared to Examples 3-1 to 3-26. Specifically, it was confirmed that the curable compositions of Comparative Example 3-1 and Comparative Example 3-3 had inferior dispersion stability and failed to form a coating layer. In the case of Comparative Example 3-2, no adhesion was achieved, and in Comparative Example 3-4, it was confirmed that no curing occurred.
