A flexible window stack structure includes a substrate, a first hard coating layer formed on a surface of the substrate and a second hard coating layer formed on an opposite surface of the substrate. The first hard coating layer has a curing contraction greater than that of the second hard coating layer, and the second hard coating layer is disposed at an elongated side when the window stack structure is folded. Cracks may be prevented by a curl property of the first hard coating layer when being bent.

A polymer-encapsulated pigment dispersion is prepared from a mixture of (a) a carrier; (b) pigment particles; and (c) a polymeric dispersing agent having a polymer backbone, and an alkali-swellable copolymer component. The dispersing agent may provide efficient pigment wetting and dispersion using relatively low and thus economical dispersant amounts, and subsequently enable formation of polymer-encapsulating pigment dispersions that, when used in coatings, provide good opacity and good hiding characteristics, especially in titanium dioxide-containing coating compositions.

Disclosed is a hybrid polymer latex, a coating composition that can be used for traffic markings, transportation and signages. The coating composition includes polymerization products of organic monomers and a nanoparticulate dispersion of inorganic components, which are associated through covalent or coordinate bonds with the polymer such that there is homogenous integration and association of the modified inorganic component with the organic fraction in the polymer latex which increases abrasion properties of the coating composition. Additionally, the composition discloses additives in the form of polyfunctional amines which provide superior qualities of moisture proofing, water repellence and early rain resistance to enhance durability of the product. The present invention also includes processes and methods of preparing the hybrid polymer latex for coating composition.
