"chunk": "# BACKGROUND \n\nAs described for example in U.S. Pat. No. 7,008,979; fog formation occurs under conditions of high humidity and high temperature or at interfacial boundaries where there is a large temperature and humidity difference. Coatings which reportedly reduce the tendency for surfaces to “fog up\" (i.e., anti-fogging coatings) have been suggested. \n\nIn order to prevent this fogging, it is known to use various surface active agents to provide anti-fog properties to articles. For example, hydrophilic agents have been added to polyurethanes in order to impart anti-fog properties. Anti- : fog coating compositions for transparent surfaces which include a three-dimensional cross-linked polyurethane having a free surface active agent disposed within open domains in its cross-linked structure have been suggested. The coating compositions are prepared by reacting isocyanates with : polyfunctional polyols to obtain a polyurethane, and subsequently contacting the thus prepared polyurethane with a hydrophilic surface-active agent in order to diffuse molecules of the surface-active agent into the interior of the coating. (See for example U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,551,484 and : 4,609,688 to Radisch et al.) \n\nThe surface-active agent, however, is not chemically reacted into the polyurethane, but is instead physically disposed within the polymeric structure.As such, the cured coating is susceptible to undesirable leaching and erosion of the surfactant, thereby decreasing the anti-fog properties of the coating composition. \n\nIt has also been proposed to react surface active agents into a polyurethane coating composition in order to impart anti-fog properties to the coating composition. For example, the addition of sulfonated “resins” to polyurethanes in order to prepare coatings with various properties including antifog characteristics have been suggested. The resins are prepared from diols or diamines reacted with di-carboxylic acid esters, followed by sulfonation of double bonds or quarternization of amines. The resins are intended to increase the hydrophilic character and water absorption of the polyurethane coatings by reacting into the polyurethane backbone in an end-to-end fashion, rather than as pendent groups. Such resins which react in an end-to-end fashion, as opposed to remaining pendant at the end of the polyurethane chain, cannot provide for a clear delineation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups and in this respect do not behave as surfactants, i.e., they do not provide cooperation between distinct hydrophilic and hydrophobic portions to reduce interfacial tension.(See for example U.S. Pat. No.3,822,238 to Blair et al.) \n\nPolyurethane compositions have also been suggested which are useful as coatings for transparent substrates with improved self-healing properties and prevention against formation of surface moisture. The polyurethane compositions are prepared from a reaction of an isocyanate with a polyol mixture including a difunctional sulfonated polyether polyol and a trifunctional polyol. Such a polyurethane composition incorporates only polyol combinations which impart hydrophilic character to the coating, and does not further incorporate into the composition a surfactant material. (See for example U.S. Pat. No. 4,754,152 to Fock et al.) \n\nHowever, these compositions do not provide permanent fog resistance properties, i.e. fog resistant properties which last after repeated washings or extended soaking in water, nor are they effective for more than a few hours of use. \n\nAdditionally, it is known to incorporate non-ionic surfactants containing reactive functional groups into polyurethanes prepared with polyvinylpyrrolidone as a hydrophilic agent. For example, anti-fog coating compositions incorporating an isocyanate prepolymer which is reacted with a polyvinylpyrrolidone polymer, the reaction product thereof being subsequently reacted with a non-ionic surfactant having reactive groups for reacting with the isocyanate, for instance, hydroxyl reactive groups are known. Polyvinylpyrrolidone polymers, however, while serving to increase the hydrophilicity of the polyurethane matrix and improve antifog properties, generally reduce the scratch-resistance, chemical resistance, water sensitivity, and durability of the cured polyurethane surface. Thus, although these compositions,when cured, have been known to provide anti-fog properties, their solvent sensitivity, flexibility and scratch resistance properties are less than desirable. (See for example U.S. Pat. No. 4,467,073 to Creasy).",

"chunk": "# DETAILEDDESCRIPTIONOFILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS \n\nThe coating compositions described herein are suitable for imparting anti-fog characteristics. The coating composition comprises an aqueous polymeric dispersion, typically one that can be prepared as a latex, and more typically an alkaline $\\mathfrak{p H}$ stable latex. Favored polymeric dispersions include polyurethane polymer dispersions, acrylic polymer dispersions, and mixture thereof. Such polymers are typically thermoplastic. \n\nThe term “polyurethane” includes any polymeric material that comprises polyurethane segments. The term “polyurethane segment\" refers to at least two urethane and/or urea groups that are connected by an organic group. \n\nThe term“acrylic\" includes any polymer or copolymer of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, ester of these acids or acrylonitrile. \n\nThermoplastic polyurethane compositions are generally the reaction product of a diisocyanate with short-chain diols (also referred to as chain extenders) and diisocyantes with long-chained difunctional diols (known as polyols). Polyurethanes are characterized as having urethane groups, i.e. —NH— $\\mathrm{C}{=}0\\mathrm{\\Omega}$ O—that link the segments derived from the diisocyanate and diol. Such urethane group comprise a carbonyl group, i.e. a carbon atom double bonded to an oxygen atom, $\\scriptstyle{\\mathrm{C=O}}$ \n\nNon-limiting examples of long-chained polyols are polyether polyols, polyester polyols, acrylic polyols and mixtures of such polyols. Typically, polyester based thermoplastic urethanes are known for providing good abrasion and chemical resistance. The final resin consists of linear polymeric chains in block-structures. Such chains contain low polarity segments, referred to as “soft segments\", alternating with shorter, high polarity segments, referred to as \"hard segments\". Both types of segments are linked together by covalent links, forming random copolymers or blockcopolymers. \n\nPolyester polyols are prepared by the polyesterification of an organic polycarboxylic acid or anhydride thereof with organic polyols and/or an epoxide. Usually, the polycarboxylic acids and polyols are aliphatic or aromatic dibasic acids and diols. The diols that are usually employed in making the polyester include, but are not limited to,acyclic alkylene glycols, such as ethylene glycol and neopentyl glycol, and cyclic glycols such as hydrogenated Bisphenol A, cyclohexanediol and cyclohexanedimethanol. Polyols of higher functionality can also be used. Non-limiting examples include trimethylolpropane and pentaerythritol, as well as higher molecular weight polyols such as those produced by oxyalkylating low molecular weight polyols. \n\nThe acid component of the polyester consists primarily of monomeric carboxylic acids or anhydrides having 2 to 18 carbon atoms per molecule. Among the acids that can be used are phthalic acid, terephthalic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid, adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, maleic acid, glutaric acid, chlorendic acid, decanoic acid and dodecanoic acid. Higher polycarboxylic acids, such as trimellitic acid and tricarballylic acid, can also be used. Where acids are referred to above, it is understood that anhydrides of those acids that form anhydrides can be used in place of the acid. Also, lower alkyl esters of the acids such as dimethyl glutarate and dimethyl-terephthalate can be used. \n\nIn addition to the polyester polyols, hydroxy-containing acrylic polymers or acrylic polyols can be used as the polyol component. \n\nExamples of polyether polyols are polyalkylene ether polyols include those having the following general formula: \n\nene-bis-(cyclohexyl isocyanate), isophorone diisocyanate and NCO-prepolymers, e.g., the reaction products of monomeric polyisocyanates, such as those mentioned above, with polyester or polyether polyols. Particularly desired are the isocyanurates from isophorone isocyanate and 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, both of which are commercially available. \n\nIn some embodiments, the polyurethane dispersion comprises a polyester backbone, a polycarbonate backbone, a polyester carbonate or a combination thereof. In other embodiments, the acrylic dispersion comprises an acrylic backbone, a hydroxyl-containing acrylic backbone, or a combination thereof. In yet other embodiments, the poly5 meric dispersion is a urethane-acrylic hybrid, or polycarbonate urethane/acrylic hybrid. In some embodiments, the polymers are described as having a polycarbonate or carbonate backbone. In such embodiments, the polymer comprises aliphatic or aromatic carbonate moieties, such as 0 bisphenol A carbonate moieties. \n\nVarious processes have been developed for the preparation of waterborne or aqueous polymeric dispersions. In the preparation of aqueous polyurethane polymers, typically a medium molecular weight polymer (e.g. prepolymer) is 25 formed by the reaction of suitable diols or polyols with a molar excess of diisocyantes or polyisocyanates in the presence of an internal emulsifier. The internal emulsifier is typically a diol with an ionic group (carboxylate, sulfonates, or quaternary ammonium slat) or a non-ionic group, such as 30 polyethylene oxide. Aqueous polyurethane dispersion are typically one of three types, i.e. non-ionic, cationic, and anionic depending on the type of hydrophilic segments present in the polyurethane backbone. In the case of anionic 351 polyurethanes, dimethyol propionic acid (DMPA) is commonly incorporated into the polyurethane backbone due to its effectiveness for water dispersions in the subsequent neutralization reactions with triethylamine. The carboxylate ion of DMPA in the polymer is hydrophilic and serves an 40 anionic center as well an internal emulsifier.Carboxylic ions not only stabilize aqueous polyurethane dispersions, but also provide curing sites. Aqueous acrylic polymers are also typically prepared with an internal emulsifier and thus typically also comprise carboxylate ions to stabilize the 45 dispersion and provide curing sites. \n\nThe (e.g. polyurethane and/or acrylic) polymer is generally dispersed in a liquid diluent to form a polymeric dispersion.“Liquid diluent\" refers to solvent that is volatile and removed after the coating is applied. In favored embodi \n50 ments, the coating composition comprises predominantly water as the diluent with little or no organic solvents. In this embodiment, the concentration of organic solvent is typically less than 2, 1.5, $1\\ \\mathrm{wt}\\mathrm{-}\\%$ or $0.5\\mathrm{\\wt-\\%}$ of the coating composition. A polyurethane dispersion available from \n55 Incorez, under the trade designation “W835 Series” are described as being co-solvent free grades of polyurethane dispersions. \n\nwhere the substituent R is hydrogen or lower alkyl contain- 55 ing from 1 to 5 carbon atoms including mixed substituents, and n is typically from 2 to 6 and m is from 10 to 100 or even higher. Included are poly(oxytetramethylene)glycols, poly (oxyethylene)glycols, poly(oxy-1,2-propylene)glycols and the reaction products of ethylene glycol with a mixture of 6( 1,2-propylene oxide and ethylene oxide. \n\nThe polyisocyanates that can be used include aromatic and aliphatic polyisocyanates with aliphatic polyisocyanates being more desirable because of their superior ultraviolet light stability and non-yellowing tendencies. Non-limiting examples of such polyisocyanates include monomeric polyisocyanates, such as toluene diisocyanate, and $^{4,4^{\\prime}}$ -methyl \n\nThe (e.g. polyurethane and/or acrylic) polymer dispersed in an aqueous diluent are film-forming polymers. Suitable polymer latexes and methods for making them are widely known in the art, and many are commercially available. \n\nTypically, the particles in the polymer latexes are substantially spherical in shape. The polymer core may comprise one or more water-insoluble polymers, although this is not a requirement. Useful polymer particle sizes include those typical of latexes and other dispersions or emulsions. Typical polymer particle sizes are in a range of from about",

Examples of self cross-linking polymer dispersions include polyurethane dispersions available from Bayer Material Science, LLC of Pittsburgh, Pa. as “BAYHYDROL PR240” and from DSM Neoresins as“NEOREZ R-661\". \n\nExamples of commercially available aqueous aliphatic acrylic emulsions include acrylic latexes available from Dow Coating Materials under the trade designations ROSHIELDTM and RHOPLEXTM such as“ROSHIELDTM 3188\"，“ROSHIELDTM3275”，“ROSHIELDTM1024” “ROSHIELDTM 636\",“RHOPLEXTM WL-96\",and “RHOPLEXTM CL- $104^{,}$ ; acrylic latexes available from Arkema Coating Resins under the trade designation “UCARTM\", such as “UCARTM LATEX $455'$ ,“UCARTM LATEX 443\", “UCARTM LATEX 451\", and “UCARTM LATEX $\\mathrm{DM}109^{\\circ}$ acrylic latexes available from Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc. under the trade designation HYCAR $\\textsuperscript{\\textregistered}$ ， such as \"HYCAR $\\textsuperscript{\\textregistered}$ $26349^{\\circ}$ ; “HYCAR $\\textsuperscript{\\textregistered}$ $26459^{\\circ}$ ; and acrylic latexes available from DSM NeoResins under the trade designation “NEOCRYL\",such as “NEOCRYL $\\mathrm{A}{-}640^{3}$ ，“NEOCRYL $\\mathrm{XK-}220^{\\circ}$ ，“NEOCRYL $\\mathrm{A-}1044^{\\cdots}$ ，“NEOCRYL XK-90\" “NEOCRLYL XK-96”and “NEOCRYL XK-95\". \n\nDispersions of polyurethane polymers can be characterized by measuring the properties of a 50-100 micron thin film of the neat polyurethane formed from the dispersion (dried at $22^{\\mathrm{o}}\\mathrm{~C}./50\\%$ RH for 14 days). In some embodiments, the elongation of the thin film thus formed typically has an elongation at break ranging from about $500\\%$ to about $60\\%$ . In some embodiments, the tensile strength ranges from about 15 to $30\\mathrm{MPa}$ \\* \n\nIn some embodiments, the acrylic dispersion comprises a polyacrylate backbone, a polycarbonate backbone, or a combination thereof. \n\nA combination of polymeric polymers may be utilized in the (e.g. anti-fog） coating composition.For example, the polyurethane dispersion may comprise two or more polyurethane polymers having a different average molecular weight. Further, the composition may contain a different ( type of polymer in combination with a polyurethane, for example, as would be obtained by mixing an acrylic latex and a polyurethane latex. In one embodiment, the aqueous polyurethane dispersion comprises a mixture of “INCOREZ W835/140\"and“NEOREZR-961\".The inclusion of\"NEO-( REZ R-961” can improve the abrasion resistance. However, when the concentration of “NEOREZ R-961”exceeds a a weight ratio of about 1:2 (i.e. more than 1 part by weight “NEOREZ R-961” per 2 parts by weight“INCOREZ W835/ $140^{7})$ , the coating can become white after being soaked in water. In yet another example, a combination of a polyurethane polymer and an acrylic polymer is utilized or a hybrid polymer of both acrylic and polyurethane. An example of a commercially available acrylic urethane copolymer dispersion is available under the trade designation NEOPAC from DSM Neoresins. \n\n0 The coating composition typically comprises one or more (e.g. polyurethane and/or acrylic) polymers in an amount totaling at least $40\\mathrm{wt}-\\%$ solids of the coating composition and typically no greater than $90\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ or $85\\mathrm{\\wt-\\%}$ or 80 wt- $\\%$ . In some embodiments, the coating composition com5 prises one or more polymers in an amount of at least 45 wt- $\\%$ or $50\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ ， \n\nThe (e.g. anti-fog) coating compositions described herein comprise at least one surfactant. The term “surfactant\" as used herein describes molecules that reduce the surface tension of the coating composition and provide a coating that imparts“good” or “excellent” anti-fog properties to substrates or articles coated therewith, according to the test method described in the examples. Surfactant molecules generally include both hydrophilic (polar) and hydrophobic (non-polar) segments on the same molecule. \n\nUseful surfactants of the present invention include ionic (e.g. anionic, cationic) non-ionic, as well as amphoteric surfactants. A surfactant can be classified by the presence of formally charged groups in its head. The head of an ionic \n30 surfactant carries a net charge. An anionic surfactant has a negatively charged hydrophilic group, such as in the case of alkyl sulphates and alkyl ethoxylated sulfates. Cationic surfactants have a positively charged hydrophilic group, such as in the case of sodium salts and quaternary (e.g \n35 ammonium) salts. A non-ionic surfactant has no charged groups in its head. Some illustrative surfactants are described in WO 2009/085680; incorporated herein by reference. For embodiments wherein the coating composition lacks \n40 an acid or salt of a polyalkylene oxide as a hydrophilic component, the coating composition comprises a suficient amount of surfactant to render the coating composition an anti-fog composition. The surfactant concentration in the coating compositions is typically at least $0.5\\mathrm{wt}-\\%$ ,1wt- $\\%$ D \n451.5 wt- $\\%$ ,or2 wt- $\\%$ percent of the coating composition. The surfactant concentration is typically no greater than $10\\mathrm{wt-}\\%$ of the coating composition. \n\nIn some embodiments, the (e.g. anti-fog) coating composition comprises a non-ionic surfactant. Non-ionic surfac50 tants generally comprise an alkyl or alkenyl group having at least 6, or 8, or 10, or 12 carbon atoms. Such relatively long chain alkyl or alkylene group is commonly referred to as a \"fatty\" group. The number of carbon atoms can be greater than 18 carbon atoms provided the non-ionic surfactant is a 55 liquid at ambient temperature (e.g. $25^{\\circ}\\mathrm{C}.$ . In some embodiments, the alkyl or alkenyl group has no greater than 24 carbon atoms. In some favored embodiments, such alkyl group is unbranched. The alkyl or alkenyl group may optionally comprise substituents. \n\nVarious classes of non-ionic surfactants are known including for example fatty alcohols, fatty acids, fatty amines, fatty amides, and derivatives thereof. \n\nFatty alcohols typically have the general formula:",

Various fatty alcohols are known including dodecyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol $\\mathrm{CH}_{3}(\\mathrm{CH}_{2})_{15}\\mathrm{OH}$ ， stearyl alcohol (also known as octadecyl alcohol or 1-octadecanol), and oleyl alcohol. \n\nIn some embodiments, the non-ionic surfactant is a 5 derivative of a fatty alcohol. One favored derivative is a fatty alcohol, ester or derivative thereof comprising alkylene oxide repeat units such as ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide repeat units. Such derivatives may also be referred to as a polyethoxylated and/or polypropoxylated fatty alcohols, 1( esters, or derivatives thereof. Polyethoxylated fatty alcohols have the general formula: \n\n$$\n\\mathrm{R}{\\longrightarrow}(\\mathrm{OCH}_{2}\\mathrm{CH}_{2})_{n}\\mathrm{OH}\n$$ \n\nwherein R is a (e.g. straight or branched chain) alkyl or 1: alkenyl group, as previously described, optionally substituted in available positions by N, O, or S atoms. The number of ethylene oxide repeat units, “n\" can range from 2 to 20. In some embodiments, n is at least 3 or 4 and no greater than about 10 or 12. 2( \n\nSurfactant comprising polyalkylene oxide repeat units, such as polyethoxylated fatty alcohols, can be a favored non-ionic surfactant of the coating composition. \n\nIn some embodiments, one or more polyethoxylated fatty alcohols are the sole surfactant of the coating composition. In other embodiments, at least one polyethoxylated fatty alcohol is employed in combination with a second surfactant. The polyethoxylated fatty alcohol surfactant may be utilized in combination with a second surfactant at a weight ratio of about 1:1 or 2:1. In some embodiments, the second surfactant is a silicone surfactant, an ionic surfactant,or mixture thereof. \n\nThe some embodiments, the coating composition comprises a non-ionic surfactant in combination with an ionic surfactant or silicone surfactant. \n\nSilicone surfactants generally comprises a siloxane backbone with a various number of dimethyl siloxane units, typically end-capped with a trimethyl siloxane group at each end. The siloxane backbone is generally the hydrophobic group. The hydrophilic group can be ionic, zwitterionic, or non-ionic and are usually attached by a short alkyl chain to the siloxane backbone. One illustrative siloxane surfactant is a polyether modified siloxane, commercially available from Innovadex under the trade designation “BYK-346\". \n\nVarious ionic surfactants are known. One illustrative ionic surfactant is a sodium alpha olefin sulfonate, commercially available from Stepan Company under the trade designation “A-18\". Another ionic surfactant is a polyoxyethylene alkylphenyl ether ammonium sulfate, commercially available from Dai-Ichi Kogyo Seiyaku., Ltd. of Japan under the trade designation “Hitenol BC $10^{\\circ}$ \n\nVarious non-ionic surfactants as previously described comprise a hydroxyl group. Anti-fog coatings have been previously described wherein a hydroxyl functional surfactant is utilized as a reactant during the formation of the polyurethane. (See for example U.S. Pat. No. 3,822,238) However, in the presently described anti-fog coating compositions a preformed (e.g. commercially available) polymer, provided as an aqueous dispersion is utilized as a component. The polymer of the dispersion is typically free of hydroxyl-reactive. Hence, when a hydroxyl functional surfactant is combined with such polyurethane dispersion, the surfactant does not react with the polyurethane due. In other words the surfactant is non-reactive with respect to the (e.g. polyurethane and/or acrylic) polymer. \n\nThe anti-fog coating described herein may optionally comprise various hydrophilic additives.A hydrophilic additive is distinguished from a surfactant in that a hydrophilic additive lacks a hydrophobic group, a requisite group of a surfactant. In some embodiments, the coating compositions comprise a small concentration of a (e.g. non-reactive) hydrophilic additive, such as a polyethylene glycol (PEG) monomethyl ether, to enhance the anti-fog performance. In this embodiment, the concentration of the hydrophilic additive is typically at least $0.5~\\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ ,or1 wt- $\\%$ ,or $1.5~\\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ . or $2\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ and generally no greater than about $5\\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ \n\nIn another embodiment, the anti-fog coating comprises a hydrophilic additive that is non-reactive with respect to the polyurethane polymer, yet is reactive and thus can be crosslinked by the (e.g.aziridine) crosslinker. The concentration of such hydrophilic additive is typically at least 5 wt- $\\%$ ,6wt- $\\%$ ，7wt- $\\%$ ,8wt- $\\%$ ，9wt- $\\%$ or $10\\mathrm{wt}\\%$ of the solids of the coating composition. In some embodiments, the concentration of hydrophilic additive is at least $11\\mathrm{\\wt{-}}\\%$ ，12 wt- $\\%$ 。 $13\\mathrm{\\wt-\\%}$ D $14\\mathrm{wt}\\%$ ,or $15\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ . The concentration of such hydrophilic additive is typically no greater than about 35wt- $\\%$ \n\nOne example of a hydrophilic additive that can be crosslinked by the crosslinker is an acid or salt of a polyalkylene oxide. Such additive generally comprises a polyalkylene oxide backbone that comprises repeat units of the ethylene \n25 oxide, propylene oxide, or a combination thereof. The number of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide repeat units may independently range from O to 100 with the proviso that the sum of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide repeat units range from about 10 to 10o. The polyalkylene oxide back \n30 bone typically comprises more ethylene oxide repeat units than propylene oxide repeat units. In some embodiments, the ratio of ethylene oxide repeat units to propylene oxide repeat units is at least 2:1, or 3:1; or 4:1, or 5:1, or 6:1 or 7:1, or 8:1,or 9:1, or 10:1. The polyalkylene oxide backbone is \n35 typically linear and divalent, terminating with an acid or salt group on each end. A divalent linking group is typicaly present between the polyalkylene oxide backbone and at least one or two terminal acid or salt groups. Depending on the starting compound and reactant(s), the linking group can \n40 vary. In some embodiments, the additive is formed from a polyalkylene oxide amine (also referred to as a polyether amine) reacted with a succinic anhydride forming a diacid that is then reacted with an alkyl amine to convert the acid group to an ammonium salt group. In this embodiment, the \n45 linking group between the polyalkylene oxide backbone and theterminal acid or salt groups may be $\\mathrm{-CH}_{2}\\mathrm{NHCOC}_{2}\\mathrm{H}_{4}-$ . However, other linking group would be present by use of other reaction schemes. The molecular weight of the linking group is generally relatively small so \n50 as not to detract from the hydrophilic nature of the polyalkylene oxide backbone. In some embodiments, the molecular weight of the linking group is no greater than 100 g/mole. As the molecular weight of the polyalkylene oxide backbone increases, the molecular weight of the linking \n55 group may also increase without detracting from the hydrophilic properties. However, the molecular weight of the linking group is typically no greater than about 20, 15 or $10\\%$ by weight of the total molecular weight of the hydrophilic additive (i.e. the molecular weight of the linking \n60 groups divided by the total molecular weight multiplied by $100\\%$ ， \n\nIn one embodiment, the hydrophilic additive comprises a divalent polyalkylene oxide backbone and terminal acid or salts groups, as may be represented by the following formula: \n\n$$\n\\mathrm{R-L-}(\\mathrm{C}_{3}\\mathrm{H}_{6}\\mathrm{O})\\mathrm{-}(\\mathrm{C}_{2}\\mathrm{H}_{4}\\mathrm{O})_{y}\\mathrm{-L-R}\n$$ \n\nwherein is $\\mathrm{~R~}$ is a reactive group that is capable of (covalently) reacting with the (e.g. aziridine) crosslinker such as a carboxylic acid group or salt thereof, \n\nL is a divalent linking, \n\nand $\\mathbf{x}$ and y independently range from O to 100 with the proviso that the sum of $\\mathbf{x}{+}\\mathbf{y}$ ranges from about 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 to about 100. \n\nThe linking group L can vary depending on the selection of reactants. For example, when a polyalkylene oxide diol is reacted with an isocyanate compound, Lmay be 10 —OCONH—. In another embodiment, when a polyalkylene oxide diamine is reacted with an isocyanate compound, L may be—NHCONH—. In yet another embodiment, when a polyalkylene oxide diol is reacted with an anhydride or carboxylic acid compound, L may be —( $\\mathrm{C}{=}0_{,}$ O—.L15 may also be an ester linkage when a polyalkylene oxide diacid is reacted with an alcohol compound. In yet another embodiment, L may be —CONH— by reaction of a polyalkylene oxide diacid or acrylic chloride with a primary or secondary amine.The amide linkage can also be made by the 20 reaction of a polyalkylene diamine with an anhydride or a carboxylic acid compound. In yet another embodiment, L may be—NR—by reaction of a polyalkylene oxide diamine with a halide compound or by reaction of a polyalkylene oxide dihalide with an amine compound. In yet another 25 embodiment, L can be —COS— by the reaction of a polyalkylene oxide diol with an acryl chloride thiol or thiol ester compound. Further, L may be — $\\mathrm{CS}_{2}$ — by reaction a polyalkylene oxide dithiol with a thiol or mercapto compound. In yet another embodiment, L may be —S— by 30 reaction of a polyalkylene oxide dithiol with a halide compound. In yet another embodiment, L may be —O— by a condensation reaction of polyalkylene oxide diol. In yet another embodiment, L may be—SCONH—by the reaction of a polyalkylene oxide dithiol with an isocyanate com- 35 pound or by reaction of a polyalkylene oxide diisocyanate with a thiol compound. \n\nThe counter ions of the acid salts can be ammonium, as well as primary, secondary or tertiary alkyl ammoniums. The counter ions may also be inorganic metallic ions includ- 40 ing divalent zinc from zinc halides, nitrate, carbonate,or ammonium carbonate. Other inorganic metallic ions comprise Cu, Ti, and $Z\\mathrm{r}$ \n\nWithout intending to be bound by theory it is surmised that alkylene oxide repeat units of the acid or salt of 45 polyalkylene oxide can aid in preventing a surfactant, compatible with such hydrophilic segments (e.g. such as a non-ionic surfactant comprising alkylene oxide repeat units) from leaching out of the coating. \n\nThe anti-fog coatings described herein comprise a cross- 5( linker. The crosslinker typically reacts with the (e.g. carboxylate) hydrophilic segments present in the polymer (eg. polyurethane and/or acrylic) backbone.Favored crosslinkers include multifunctional aziridine crosslinkers, typically comprising at least three terminal groups. 5 \n\nCarboxylic ion (e.g. carboxylate） containing aqueous polymeric dispersions and a multi-aziridine curing agent may be formulated as a curing polymeric dispersion. The curing mechanism can take place at ambient temperature during the drying process of when the pH value drops below 6. In some embodiments the crosslinker may also react with the (e.g. acid or salt of a polyalkylene oxide) hydrophilic additive, as just described. \n\nThe concentration of (e.g. aziridine) crosslinker is typically at least 5 wt- $\\%$ solids of the coating composition. In some embodiments, a relatively high concentration of (e.g. aziridine) crosslinker is utilized. For example, the concentration of (e.g. aziridine) crosslinker is typically at least 10 or $15\\ \\mathrm{wt}\\mathrm{-}\\%$ of the solids of the coating composition. The concentration of (e.g. aziridine) crosslinker is typically no greater than 25 wt- $\\%$ ,or $24\\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ ,or $23\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ ,or22wt- $\\%$ D or 21 wt- $\\%$ or $20\\mathrm{\\wt-\\%}$ \n\nVarious multifunctional aziridine crosslinkers are known such as trimethylolpropane tri-[beta-(N-aziridinyl)-propionate, 2,2-bishydroxymethyl butanoltris[3-(1-aziridine) propionate], aziridine-2-methylol acrylate, aziridine-2-methylol methacrylate, N-(2-aziridinyl)methylacrylamide, N-(2- aziridinyl)methylmethacrylamide, 1-(aziridin-2-yl)-2-oxabut-3-ene, 4-(aziridin-2-yl)-but-l-ene, and 5-(aziridin-2- yl)-pent-l-ene. These particular aziridine crosslinkers are relatively hydrophobic crosslinkers. \n\nParticularly for embodiments wherein the crosslinker is present at relatively high concentrations, it can be favored to utilize a hydrophilic aziridine crosslinker, rather than a hydrophobic crosslinker.A hydrophilic aziridine crosslinker may comprise alkylene oxide repeat units, such as ethylene oxide repeat units. The number of alkylene oxide (e.g ethylene oxide) repeats units is typically at least 2 or 3 and typically no greater than about 20. In some embodiments, the number of alkylene oxide (e.g. ethylene oxide) repeat units averages about 6, 7, 8, or 9. The use of a hydrophilic crosslinker is favored for embodiment wherein the composition is substantially free of or comprises a low concentration (no greater than 5 wt $\\%$ ) of hydrophilic additives. \n\nAn aziridine crosslinker comprising ethylene oxide repeat units can be prepare by reacting an ethoxylated alkyl multi (meth)acrylate, such as ethoxylated (9) trimethyl propane triacrylate with an alkyl aziridine, such as 2-methylaziridine. Such aziridine crosslinker has the general formula: \n\n \n\nwherein R' is hydrogen, or a $\\mathrm{C_{1}{-}C_{4}}$ alkyl group; $\\mathrm{R}\"$ is hydrogen or methyl, \n\nx, y, and $z$ are independently at least 1; and M is a divalent atom of divalent linking group. \n\nIn some embodiments, the sum of $\\ x+y+z$ is at least 3, 4, 5, or 6. Further the sum of $\\mathbf{x}+\\mathbf{y}+\\mathbf{z}$ may be no greater than 20. In some embodiments, M is oxygen. \n\nOther aziridine crosslinkers comprising alkylene oxide repeat units are described in U.S. Pat. No. 8,017,666; incorporated herein by reference. \n\nWithout intending to be bound by theory it is surmised that alkylene oxide repeat units of the crosslinker aid in preventing a surfactant, compatible with such hydrophilic segments (e.g. such as a non-ionic surfactant comprising alkylene oxide repeat units) from leaching out of the coating. \n\nIn some embodiments, one or more surfactants and a hydrophilic aziridine crosslinker are the primary or sole hydrophilic components of the coating composition. \n\nIn other embodiments, the composition further comprises 5 an acid or salt of a polyalkylene oxide. \n\nIn each of these embodiments, the coating composition may comprise less than 5 wt- $\\%$ or no other hydrophilic organic monomers, oligomer or polymers such as monomer or polymers derived from N-vinylpyrrolidone. \n\nIn some embodiments, the anti-fog coating compositions are free of inorganic nanoparticles. Such dried and cured composition typically exhibits satisfactory abrasion resistance due to the selection of polyurethane and the relatively high concentration of crosslinker. \n\nIn other embodiments, the coating composition comprises inorganic nanoparticles at a concentration of at least 0.5 wt- $\\%$ ,1wt- $\\%$ or2wt- $\\%$ and typically no greater than about $40\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ of the solids of the coating composition. In some embodiments, the concentration of inorganic nanoparticles is no greater than about $30\\mathrm{\\mt{-}}\\%$ or $20\\mathrm{\\wt-\\%}$ .In some embodiments, the linear abrasion is compromised, particularly with 200 or 300 cycles when the nanoparticle concentration is $15\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ or greater. \n\n“Nanoparticles” are herein defined as nanometer-sized particles, preferably with an average particle size of no greater than 100, 75 or 50 nanometers (nm). In some embodiments, the average particle size of the inorganic nanoparticles is no greater than 40, or 30, or $20\\mathrm{nm}$ (prior to surface modification. The average particle size of the nanoparticles is at least $1\\ \\mathrm{nm}$ ，2 nm, or $3\\ \\mathrm{nm}$ · \n\nAs used herein,“particle size” and “particle diameter” have the same meaning and are used to refer to the largest dimension of a particle (or agglomerate thereof). In this context, “agglomeration” refers to a weak association between particles which may be held together by charge or polarity and can be broken down into smaller entities. \n\nAverage particle size of the nanoparticles can be mea- 30 sured using transmission electron microscopy. In the practice of the present invention, particle size may be determined using any suitable technique. Particle size refers to the number average particle size and is measured using an instrument that uses transmission electron microscopy or 35 scanning electron microscopy. Another method to measure particle size is dynamic light scattering that measures weight average particle size. One example of such an instrument found to be suitable is the N4 PLUS SUB-MICRON PARTICLE ANALYZER available from Beckman Coulter Inc. 40 of Fullerton, Calif. \n\nThe nanoparticles may be relatively uniform in size. Uniformly sized nanoparticles generally provide more reproducible results. Preferably, variability in the size of the nanoparticles is less than $25\\%$ of the mean particle size. \n\nThe nanoparticles preferably have a surface area of at least $10\\mathrm{m}^{2}/\\dot{\\mathrm{g}}\\mathrm{ram}$ ，more preferably at least $20~\\mathrm{m}^{2}/\\mathrm{gram}$ ,and even more preferably at least $25\\mathrm{{m}}^{2},$ /gram. The nanoparticles preferably have a surface area of greater than $750\\mathrm{\\m}^{2}/\\mathrm{gram}$ \n\nNanoparticles of the present invention can be porous or nonporous. In some embodiments, the nanoparticles consist solely of only silica. Silica can be preferred nanoparticles, particularly silica nanoparticles derived from a silicate, such as an alkali metal silicate or ammonium silicate. Herein, “silica nanoparticles\" refer to nanoparticles that include only silica as well as to core-shell nanoparticles with a surface that includes silica. In other embodiments, the coating composition may comprise other inorganic oxides such as $\\mathrm{ZrO}_{2}$ ， colloidal zirconia, $\\mathrm{Al}_{2}\\mathrm{O}_{3}$ ， colloidal alumina, $\\mathrm{CeO}_{2}$ colloidal ceria, $\\mathrm{SnO}_{2}$ ,colloidal tin (stannic) oxide, and $\\mathrm{TiO}_{2}$ % colloidal titanium dioxide). Mixtures of such inorganic oxides can also be utilized. \n\nThe unmodified nanoparticles are typically provided as a dispersion rather than as a powder. Preferred dispersion generally contain from $15\\ \\mathrm{wt}-\\%$ to $50\\ \\mathrm{wt-\\%}$ of colloidal particles dispersed in a fluid medium. Representative examples of suitable fluid media for the colloidal particles \n\ninclude water, aqueous alcohol solutions, lower aliphatic alcohols, ethylene glycol, N,N-dimethylacetamide, formamide, or combinations thereof. The preferred fluid medium is aqueous, e.g., water and optionally one or more alcohols. \n； Inorganic silica sols in aqueous media are well known in the art and available commercially. Silica sols in water or water-alcohol solutions are available commercially under such trade names as LUDOX (manufactured by E.I. duPont de Nemours and Co., Inc., Wilmington, Del.), NYACOL \n0 (available from Nyacol Co.,Ashland, Mass.) or NALCO (manufactured by Nalco Chemical Co., Naperville, Ill.). Useful silica dispersions include “NALCO 1115” and \"DVSZNoo4\", both available from Nalco Chemical Company. \n\n5 The inorganic nanoparticles typically comprise a surface treatment. Surface-treating the nano-sized particles can provide a stable dispersion in the polymeric resin. Preferably, the surface-treatment stabilizes the nanoparticles so that the particles will be well dispersed in the aqueous polyurethane :0 dispersion and results in a substantially homogeneous composition. Furthermore, the nanoparticles can be modified over at least a portion of its surface with a surface treatment agent so that the stabilized particle can copolymerize or react with the polyurethane or aziridine crosslinker during :5curing. \n\nIn general a surface treatment agent has a first end that will attach to the particle surface (covalently, ionically or through strong physisorption) and a second end that imparts compatibility of the particle with the remainder of the coating composition and/or reacts with components of the coating composition during curing. Examples of surface treatment agents include alcohols, amines, carboxylic acids, sulfonic acids, phosphohonic acids, silanes and titanates. The preferred type of treatment agent is determined, in part, by the chemical nature of the metal oxide surface. Silanes are preferred for silica and other for siliceous fillers. \n\nIn some embodiments the nanoparticles comprise a surface treatment comprising a water dispersible group. Waterdispersible groups are monovalent groups that are capable of providing hydrophilic characteristics to the nanoparticle surface, thereby reducing, and preferably preventing, excessive agglomeration and precipitation of the nanoparticles in an aqueous coating solution. Such surface treatment can be represented by the formula A-L-WD, wherein A are the surface-bonding groups (i.e. for bonding to the nanoparticle surface), WD represents the water-dispersible groups, and L represents an organic linker or a bond. Organic linkers L can be linear or branched alkylene, arylene, or a combination of alkylene and arylene groups, optionally including heteroatoms. \n\nThe water-dispersible groups are hydrophilic or waterlike groups. They typically include, for example, nonionic groups, anionic groups, cationic groups, groups that are capable of forming an anionic group or cationic group when dispersed in water (e.g., salts or acids), or mixtures thereof. \n\nExamples of nonionic water-dispersible groups include polyalkylene oxide (e.g. PEG) groups. One illustrative silane surface treatment for use with silica nanoparticles is a polyethylene oxide (PEG) silane, such as 2-[methoxy (polyethyleneoxy)propylltrimethoxysilane.Thesurface treatment may comprise other water dispersible groups, as well as epoxy silane surface treatments, such as described in WO2009/085680; incorporated herein by reference. \n\nThe preferred amount of surface modifier can depend on several factors such particle size, particle type, modifier molecular weight, and modifier type. In general it is preferred that approximately a monolayer of modifier is",

For silanes it can be preferred to surface treat at elevated temperatures under acidic or basic conditions for approximately 1-24 hours. \n\nThe level of coverage of the inorganic nanoparticles herein is reported in terms of the concentration of epoxy groups in the coating composition, assuming $100\\%$ of the amount of functional groups of the surface treatment would be covalently bonded to surface of the silica particles. In some embodiments, the inorganic nanoparticles comprise a surface treatment at $25\\%$ or $50\\%$ coverage. \n\nCoating compositions can be supplied in liquid form (e.g., in a pourable form or sprayable form) or impregnated into an applicator substrate (e.g., forming an applicator pad or 1: wipe). Suitable applicator substrates can be in the form of a sponge，foam, woven, nonwoven, or knit material,for example. The term“nonwoven web” or“nonwoven fabric” refers to a web or fabric having a structure of individual fibers that are interlaid in an irregular manner. In contrast, 2 knit or woven fabrics have fibers that are interlaid in a regular manner. \n\nThe liquid polyurethane coating compositions can be applied by conventional methods, including spraying, spin coating, brushing, dipping, flow coating, etc., but typically are applied by spin coating or spraying. The coating operation can be conducted either in a single stage or by a multiple stage coating procedure, as is well known in the art. The conditions adopted for curing the (e.g. aziridine) crosslinkers with the polyurethane polymer can vary. In some embodiments, the coating is thermally cured at a temperature from about 90 to $120^{\\circ}$ C. for about 20 minutes. Generally, lower temperatures require longer cure times. Infrared heating can be used to shorten the time until the coating can be handled. \n\nThe dried and cured coating compositions described herein can exhibit high transparency, greater than $90\\%$ and thus are suitable for application to a variety of light transmissive substrates and articles. The haze of the dried and cured coating is typically less than 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 or $0.5\\%$ .The highly transparent compositions are typically substantially free of opacifiying pigments (i.e. less than 0.5 or 0.1 wt $\\%$ j The coating compositions can provide anti-fog properties to substrates coated and dried and cured thereon. Dried and cured coatings are considered to have“good'\" or“excellent” anti-fogging properties if a coated substrate resists the formation of small, condensed water droplets in sufficient density to significantly reduce the transparency of the coated substrate such that it cannot be adequately seen through, according to the test method described in the example. \n\nIn some embodiments, the dried and cured coating compositions are sufficiently durable that such that good or excellent anti-fog characteristics are provided initially and after being soaked in $25^{\\circ}\\mathrm{~C~}$ .water for 1 hours. In other embodiments, the dried and cured coating compositions are sufficiently durable that they can provide good or excellent anti-fog characteristics after being soaked in or $50^{\\circ}\\mathrm{C}$ water for 24 hours or $65^{\\circ}\\mathrm{C}$ water for 120 hours. \n\nIn some embodiments, the dried and cured coating compositions exhibited mechanical durability (i.e., the haze of the coatings increased only $1-7\\%$ haze change) after linear razor abrasion test and no scratches were observed after wiping the coatings with a paper towel for 100, 200, or 300 cycles. \n\nThere are various articles that can benefit from an anti-fog 6 coating such as traffic signs,motor vehicle windows and particularly windshields, protective eyewear (e.g. goggles, face shields, helmets, etc.) and architectural glazings, as well as other decorative glass articles. \n\nSubstrates to which the antifog coating composition can be applied are preferably transparent or translucent to visible light. If the coating composition is utilized for a different purpose, the substrate may alternatively be opaque such as in the case of stainless steel, polyvinyl chloride, and fiberboard. Substrates include both organic and inorganic materials. Exemplary substrates are made of polyester (e.g., polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutyleneterephthalate), polycarbonate (PC), allyldiglycolcarbonate, polyacrylates such as polymethylmethacrylate, polystyrene, polysulfone, polyethersulfone, cellulose acetate butyrate, glass, and the like, including blends and laminates thereof. Typically the substrate is in the form of a film, sheet, panel or pane of material and is part of an article. The substrate may be flat, curved or shaped. The article to be coated may be produced by blowing, casting, extrusion, or injection molding. \n\nThe anti-fog coatings may be coated on both sides of the substrate.Alternatively, the coatings of the present invention may be coated on one side of the substrate. The opposite side of the substrate may be uncoated or coated with a wide variety of conventional antifogging compositions. Preferably, the coating surface should face the direction of higher humidity, e.g., on a face shield the side having the anti-fog coating should face the wearer. \n\nObjects and advantages of this disclosure are further illustrated by the following examples, but the particular materials and amounts thereof recited in these examples, as well as other conditions and details, should not be construed to unduly limit this disclosure.",
