A water based paint that can be used to form a superhydrophobic coating includes a fluorinated particulate filler, a water soluble or water suspendable resin, and an aqueous solvent. The superhydrophobic paint can be applied to a surface where the loss of the solvent results in a superhydrophobic coating.

The present invention relates to an optical film exhibiting excellent optical properties such as low gloss value and reflectance, and an appropriate level of haze properties, and to an image display device including the same. The optical film comprises: a light-transmitting substrate film; an antiglare layer including a binder containing a (meth)acrylate-based crosslinked polymer, and organic fine particles of a micron (μm) scale dispersed on the binder and inorganic fine particles of a nanometer (nm) scale dispersed on the binder; and a low refractive index layer which is formed on the antiglare layer and includes a binder resin containing a (co)polymer of a photopolymerizable compound, and hollow silica particles dispersed in the binder resin, wherein the organic and inorganic fine particles exhibit a predetermined particle size distribution, refractive index difference, and content range.

Curable compositions, cured compositions, articles containing the curable or cured compositions, and methods of making the articles are provided. More particularly, the curable compositions contain a (meth)acrylate-based polymer having pendant (meth)acryloyl groups, at least one monomer having a single ethylenically unsaturated group, a photoinitiator that includes an acyl phosphine oxide, and a thixotropic agent. The curable compositions can be printed or dispensed, if desired, and the cured compositions are pressure-sensitive adhesives.
