  • Publication number: 20230174790
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dual-reactive composition including a). from 24% to 90% by weight of crosslinkable silane-functional monomer and/or oligomer and/or polymer; b). from 9% to 75% by weight of one monomer and/or unsaturated oligomer and/or unsaturated polymer; c). from 0.5% to 10% by weight of one initiator; and d). from 0.5% to 10% by weight of one catalyst, all weight percentages are based on the total weight of the coating composition and a film obtained from curing and drying of the coating composition as well as a substrate coated with the dual-reactive coating composition. Additionally disclosed herein is a process for preparing the dual-reactive coating composition and a roll-to-roll coating composition and a 1K clearcoat composition including the dual-reactive coating composition.
