Abstract
Abstract A luminous composition containing (A) at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of a fluoropolymer and a graft polymer which is a fluoropolymer to which a cyanoethylated acrylic monomer is grafted, (B) an alkoxysilane compound having a primary amine group, (C) an alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, (D) a fluorescent material powder, and (E) an organic solvent, which is suitable for the formation of a luminous layer of an electro-luminescent device, since it improves the adhesion of the luminous layer to a transparent electrode, and has practically satisfactory pot life and moisture resistance.
