Then, a secondary coating was coated in a thickness of lOmil thereon. After being placed into a fixing frame, the coated film was cured in a nitrogen gas
  • the other sample was dipped in 65°C of water for 10 days, kept in a dark place for 6 hours, and a degree of adhesion strength to a glass was measured by pulling the film with a speed of 25mm/min by using 4443 TTM (Intron Co.).
  • the adhesion strength was represented by N (Newton) value, and the ratio % was calculated by the following equation, as shown in Table 2.
  • Ratio % (Adhesion strength (N) after being dipped in water / Adhesion strength (N) after cure) x 100
  • compositions prepared in Examples and Comparative Examples were coated on a 20x20 cm glass by using a bar coater having a fixed thickness of 7 to lOmil. After being placed into a fixing frame, the coated film was cured in a nitrogen gas (401pm) under a light with a radiation intensity of 2.5 J/cm 2 and a speed of 30fpm by using 600 W, 9mm of D-bulb (model DRSl 0/12-QN; Fusion Co.) to obtain a cured film. The cured film was cut into 20mm of width, equilibrated in a desiccator of 23 "C, RH 50% for one day, and then weights (average) of samples were measured (a).
  • compositions prepared in Examples and Comparative Examples were coated on a 20x20 cm glass by using a bar coater. After being placed into a fixing frame, the coated film was cured in a nitrogen gas (401pm) under a light with a radiation intensity of 2.5 J/cm 2 and a speed of 30f ⁇ m by using 600 W, 9mm of D-bulb (model DRS10/12-QN; Fusion Co.) to obtain a cured 600 ⁇ m-thick film. The cured film was cut into about 15mm of length and 20mm of width to prepare a sample for measurement. The geometrical values were measured using the prepared sample by DMTA IV (Dynamic mechanical temperature analysis; Rheometry), and the measured geometrical values were input.
  • DMTA IV Dynamic mechanical temperature analysis
  • the measurement was carried out by cooling the sample to about -100 0 C and warming the sample to about 60 ° C by 2"C/min.
  • the test frequency was 1.0 radian/sec.
  • the Tg transition glass temperature
  • a glass fiber having a diameter of 125 ⁇ m was passed through a die (2 mL) containing a coating composition while UV-curing.
  • the UV-cure was carried out by using a D-bulb (Fusion Co.) under a radiation intensity of 1.0 J/cm 2 (UVA region) and a speed of 150fpm.
  • the thickness of the coated film was from lO ⁇ m to 30 ⁇ m.
  • the cured glass fibers were dipped in 45 ⁇ 65 ° C water. Every day (60 days of period), ten of the fibers were dried at a room temperature for 10 minutes, cut into 10cm of length. Then, interfaces between the glass and coating layer of total 10 fibers were observed by an optical microscope (dimension ⁇ 200), to check a degree of water infiltration.
  • the coating films obtained from the compositions of Examples 1 to 9 each exhibited a low degree of reduction in the adhesion strength of less than 10% and a low degree of water absorption of less than 1%, as compared with those of the coating films obtained from the composition of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 having no alkylene oxide-based urethane acrylate monomer. Further, it was confirmed that the degree of adhesion strength reduction and water absorption became even lower when the content of alkylene oxide-based urethane acrylate monomer increased.
  • the inventive coating films showed no delamination phenomenon even when dipped in water at a high temperature for a prolonged time, while those of the coating firms obtained from the composition of Comparative Examples 1 to 3 showed delamination between the glass and coating layer.
