CROSS-REFERENCE TO PRIOR APPLICATION 
     The present application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2014-0065820 (filed on May 30, 2014). 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to a color coating composition for an LED lamp diffuser and a color-coated glass article using the same, and more particularly, to a color coating composition for an LED lamp diffuser, capable of increasing durability and a life of an LED lamp, satisfactorily maintaining an external appearance and a lighting quality thereof for a long time, and realizing various colors, by manufacturing a glass-made diffuser as a means for diffusing light of the LED lamp in a manner of coating the diffuser on various sheets of transparent or translucent glass such as tubes and bulbs so that the diffuser is not deformed and discolored due to light and heat, and has high strength and translucency, and a color-coated glass article using the same. 
     Description of the Related Art 
     Lamps are used for various purposes such as decoration and visual display in addition to a lighting purpose for lighting darkness. Lamps such as incandescent lamps or fluorescent lamps using filaments have been mainly used until now. However, since most of power consumption is released as heat in the lamps, energy used for actual lighting is only 5 to 30% of the used power. For this reason, the lamps have low energy efficiency and a short service life. 
     Accordingly, an LED lamp using an LED having low power consumption and a long service life is recently spotlighted. In general, the LED lamp may have reduced energy consumption of ⅕ or less compared to the incandescent lamp or of ⅓ or less compared to the fluorescent lamp, and have an increased life more than 100 times that of the incandescent lamp or more than 10 times that of the fluorescent lamp. The LED lamp which is currently released as a product is generally manufactured to have an external appearance similar to the conventional lamp such as the incandescent lamp or the fluorescent lamp so as to be used as it is in an existing lighting fixture. For example, a fluorescent lamp type LED lamp is shown in  FIG. 1 . 
     As shown in the drawing, a conventional LED lamp has a structure in which a substrate  23  having a plurality of LEDs  21  is disposed inside a main body  10  and a cover  30  is coupled to the main body  10  so as to cover the front of the LEDs  21 . Connection pins for supplying power to the LEDs  21  are provided at both sides of the main body  10 , and thus the LED lamp may be connected to a fluorescent lighting fixture in a manner similar to an existing fluorescent lamp and be used. 
     Since each LED is generally a point light source, the LED lamp requires a diffuser for broadly diffusing light of the LED in order to prevent glare and provide uniform lighting. For this reason, the cover  30  serves as a diffuser  30  which is made of synthetic resin having light diffusivity so as to be bloomed by adding a dispersing agent to PC (polycarbonate) instead of a simple light transmission material. 
     In addition, since the LED is weak to heat, performance of the LED is rapidly deteriorated when the LED is used at a temperature greater than an optimal temperature. Accordingly, there is a need for a heat sink capable of rapidly dissipating heat generated when the LED is actuated. Although the LED has improved heat resistance and reduced operating heat according to technical development, heat may not be effectively radiated through the diffuser  30  made of synthetic resin. Therefore, the conventional LED lamp necessarily requires the heat sink. In addition, the heat sink may be further required since the diffuser  30  itself is very weak to heat. Thus, the main body  10  serves as a heat sink  10  made of a metal material such as aluminum. 
     As described above, the conventional LED lamp has a structure in which the synthetic resin-made diffuser  30  is coupled to the metal-made heat sink  10 . 
     However, since the diffuser  30  is made of synthetic resin which is weak to heat and light (particularly, ultraviolet light), the diffuser  30  is deformed and discolored and has poor strength and light transmittance due to heat and light generated during operation of the LEDs  21  and due to solar heat/sunlight radiated according to an installation environment and heat and light applied from the surroundings. For this reason, a lighting quality and an external appearance of the conventional LED lamp are deteriorated for a short time and the LED lamp has a short service life due to poor durability. 
     In addition, since the conventional LED lamp has a structure in which the heat sink  10  and the diffuser  30  are separately manufactured and assembled to each other and particularly the heat sink  10  is made of a metal material requiring a considerable material and processing cost, there is a problem in that productivity is lowered and manufacturing cost is high. 
     Although not separately illustrated, a bulb type and other types of LED lamps are a structure in which a metal-made heat sink is coupled to a synthetic resin-made diffuser. Therefore, the LED lamps also have the above-mentioned problems. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a color coating composition for an LED lamp diffuser and a color-coated glass article using the same that substantially obviate one or more problems due to limitations and disadvantages of the related art.

     As shown in  FIGS. 2 and 3 , a diffuser  116  according to an embodiment of the present invention is formed in such a manner to be applied to an inner surface of a glass tube  111  which is similar to a glass tube forming an existing typical fluorescent lamp and has an elongated tubular shape having a circular cross-section. 
     An LED lamp  110  having an external appearance similar to the fluorescent lamp may be manufactured in such a manner that LEDs  115  are disposed inside the glass tube  111  and bases  112  having connection pins  113  are coupled to both longitudinal ends of the glass tube  111 . 
     As in a typical LED lamp, the plurality of LEDs  115  are mounted on a substrate  114  to be connected to the connection pins  113  through the substrate  114 . 
     When the connection pins  113  are connected to power terminals of a typical lighting fixture and power is supplied to the LEDs  115 , the LEDs  115  emit light. In this case, light of each LED  115  is diffused while penetrating the diffuser  116  applied to the glass tube  111 , so that lighting is uniformly performed without glare. 
     In addition, heat generated by operation of the LED  115  may be radiated to the outside through the glass tube and the diffuser  116 . 
     To effectively radiate the heat, a heat transfer medium  117  made of a typical material such as metal or silicon having high thermal conductivity may be provided between a back surface portion of the substrate  114  and an inner peripheral surface of the glass tube  111 . 
     Meanwhile, the shape of the glass tube  111  is exemplarily illustrated in the drawing. However, the glass tube  111  may have various tubular shapes such as a U-shape, an L-shape, a curved shape, and a circular shape in addition to the linear shape, such that a connection means of the LED lamp is connected to one side or two or more ends of a typical lighting fixture having various structures. In addition, the glass tube may have another shape besides the tubular shape so as to be used for a bulb type LED lamp  120  shown in  FIG. 4 , and the bulb type LED lamp  120  may also be formed by applying and coating a diffuser onto an inner peripheral surface of a glass bulb  121  having various shapes. 
     The LED lamp  120  in  FIG. 4  has a structure in which a base  122  for power connection is coupled to one side of a bulb type diffuser  121  and a plurality of LEDs  125  are arranged on a substrate  124  in the inside of the LED lamp. In the following description, the diffuser will be designated only by reference numeral “ 116 ”. 
     The diffuser  116  is composed of a coating composition configured as follows so as to satisfy physical and chemical properties such as light transmittance, chromaticity, haze, heat resistance, and strength which are required for the diffuser  116 . 
     Here, a haze value is expressed by converting a value obtained by dividing diffuse transmittance by total transmittance into a percentage. The haze value being increased means that there is a greater amount of scattered light by diffusion without transmittance via direct light from a light source. 
     Thus, the haze value being of 100% means that light transmittance is entirely performed through diffusion, which is preferably suitable for a diffuser material for a lamp. 
     On the contrary, parallel transmittance is expressed as a value obtained by subtracting diffusion transmittance from total transmittance, meaning transmittance via direct-light. The higher the parallel transmittance is, the more the glaring via direct-light is, which means it is not suitable for a material for a lamp. 
     Further, it is appropriate for a material for a lamp to have a total transmittance of 70 to 80%, because too low total transmittance, obtained by a short distance between an LED source and a diffuser plate, causes light intensity to be reduced, whereas higher total transmittance causes internal light source devices and modules themselves to be viewed. 
     Since a diffuser may ideally perform its function when the haze value and the parallel transmittance are respectively kept constant, a coating composition for an LED lamp diffuser ideally satisfying the conditions on the haze value and parallel transmittance, a manufacturing method thereof, and a color-coated glass article formed using the method will now be described. 
     In the present invention, a color coating composition is formed by a combination of 80 wt % of a binder solution, 15 wt % to 19 wt % of ceramic filler, and 1 wt % to 5 wt % of an inorganic pigment. 
     The binder solution contains 10 wt % to 30 wt % of a solvent component in modified urethane silicone resin, wherein the modified urethane silicone resin contains AEROSIL. 
     The solvent component may comprise any one selected from the group including toluene, acetone isobutylacetate, butyle cellosolve, and xylene. The ceramic filler may comprise one or more components selected from the group including calcium carbonate, calcium oxide, calcium fluoride, silica dioxide, diatomite, magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, and zinc oxide. 
     Here, the ceramic filler may preferably use calcium carbonate, calcium oxide, and calcium fluoride. 
     The inorganic pigment comprises any one selected from the group including C.I. Pigment Red 108, Cadmium zinc sulfide, C.I. Pigment Greed 50, and C.I. Pigment Blue 28. 
     Meanwhile, a glass article coated with a coating composition for a diffuser material for an LED lamp is formed by coating the coating composition in a constant thickness on an inner surface of a transparent glass tube of a specified shape. 
     The coating composition is coated in a thickness ranging from 13 μm to 25 μm. 
     The color-coated glass article is formed by increasing ambient temperature by 10° C. a minute and respectively holding the temperature conditions for 5 minutes from room temperature to 100° C. to 200° C. followed by a cooling and curing process. 
     As shown in Table 1 below, there are other compositions including the binder solution, the ceramic filler and the inorganic pigment. 
     For example, the compositions shown in Table 1 may be made different such that the contents of the ceramic filler change according to the contents of the inorganic pigment. Here, the respective contents may have one or more contents.

     The coating composition is prepared as follows. 
     According to the present invention, a method of manufacturing a color coating composition for a diffuser material for an LED lamp includes: (1) adding ceramic filler and an inorganic pigment to an amount of a binder solution; and (2) forming a coating solution by stirring the solution while pulverizing the ceramic filler and the inorganic pigment added to the solution. 
     The stage (2) is carried out by a ball mill provided in a mixer. 
     The stage (2) is carried out at room temperature for 30 minutes such that the particle size of the ceramic filler becomes 2 μm to 4 μm. 
     As such, different coating compositions are obtained by the method, and they are tested with respect to haze and transmittance according to the thickness thereof.

     As shown in Table 2, although all the ceramic fillers and inorganic pigments exhibited generally excellent results, especially Examples a, b, and c showed high total transmittance and haze, implying that the composition ideally has the content of the inorganic pigment of not more than 3 wt %. 
     Thus, it could be seen that when the color coating compositions with different compositions were used as the LED lamp diffuser, they were selectively availably used in various conditions (e.g. light intensity required in indoor and outdoor conditions) in order to suit to consumers&#39; tastes. 
     In order to specifically test whether the calcium-based compositions containing the inorganic pigment prepared by Experimental Example 1 showed excellent properties with respect to haze and transmittance, the haze and transmittance of the coating compositions formed in the same compositions as Table 1 by the same method as that described above were tested, while changing the thickness thereof coated on the transparent glass tube. 
     Experimental Example 2 
     The coating compositions a and c, which showed excellent properties in Experimental Example 1, were coated in thicknesses of 20 μm and 25 μm, respectively, and were tested with respect to haze and transmittance thereof using measuring methods according to JIS K 7136 (ISO 14782) and JIS K 7361 (ISO 13468) and 555 nm visible rays. Table 3 shows test results by Experimental Example 2.

     As shown in Table 3, it could be seen that when examples a and c had increased coating thicknesses, respectively, total transmittance were relatively reduced, whereas hazes were increased, and that when the coating thickness was maintained at 25 μm or less, the total transmittance was maintained at 50% or more, being availably stably used as a diffuser. 
     Further, in order to various color, the coating solution having the composition b, which satisfies the color as the LED lamp diffuser, were tested, while changing the types of inorganic pigments shown in Table 1. 
     Table 4 below shows the test results of the compositions using the compositions and method shown in Experimental Example 1, while changing the types of the inorganic pigments.
