A composition formed from ingredients comprising: an epoxy; a polyvinyl phenol; a cross-linking agent; an epoxy silane; and a solvent is disclosed. A printable medium and other devices made from the composition are also disclosed.

Disclosed are a binder composition, a slurry composition, and a method of coating the surface of a metal with a superabsorbent polymer. Even when the slurry composition contains a large amount of the superabsorbent polymer, the low viscosity thereof can be maintained, thus enabling the uniform coating of the surface of the metal with the superabsorbent polymer. Also, even when a plurality of humidification-drying cycles is repeated in the coating process, no detachment occurs, and thus the superabsorbent polymer can be applied to various fields.
