| abstract |
Disclosed herein are one-part, curable compositions that have a soft feel when applied as a coating/film and cured. The one-part, curable compositions may include a) at least one isocyanurate tri(meth)acrylate or derivative thereof; and at least one of components b)-e), wherein : b) is at least one urethane diacrylate; c) is at least one mono functional or difunctional reactive diluent; d) is at least one solvent; and e) is additives. The one-part, curable compositions described herein are advantageous with respect to softness and tailorability of softness as well as other properties such as mar resistance, abrasion resistance, stain resistance and chemical resistance. Due to their advantageous properties, embodiments of the one-part, curable compositions described herein are viable for a wide range of coating applications including automotives, aeronautics, cosmetics, small appliances, packaging and consumer electronics. Methods of making and using the one-part, curable are also described herein. |
