Abstract

A hydrolytic condensation coating composition includes a silane, an epoxy resin, a hydrolytic condensation catalyst, and a solvent. The weight ratio of the epoxy resin to the silane is 1:0.4˜6. The silane is reactable with the epoxy resin, and is hydrolyzable in the presence of the hydrolytic condensation catalyst to form a three-dimensional stereo-network structure. A hard coat film obtained by coating a plastic substrate with the coating composition, followed by thermo-curing, exhibits high transparency and hardness, and has excellent anti-scratch and chemical-resistant properties. The hard coat film is suitable for use as a surface protective film for displays, polarizers, touch panels, ITO conductive films, other optical elements, and the like.
