- the second cured resin layer formed has a pencil hardness of 4H.
- a hardcoat layer obtained by radical polymerization of a polyfunctional acrylic monomer has a pencil hardness of about 3H, although a higher hardness is required depending on applications.
- the crosslinking density In order to increase the hardness of the hardcoat layer, it is possible to make the crosslinking density higher by increasing the number of functional groups in the curable resin or to increase the thickness of the hardcoat layer.
- the resulting hardcoat layer curls or cracks due to contraction generated by hardening.
- there is also a method for increasing the hardness of the hardcoat layer by addition of an inorganic fine particle it is difficult to prepare a layer having specific properties according to applications.
