Abstract: There is described a process for producing, in a continuous manner, a gradient dyeing across the width of a long strip of a plastic sheet and an apparatus used therefor. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the orientation of the plastic strip is maintained substantially constant during the passage through a dye bath, and the dye liquid level is repetitively varied by use of a liquid level control means. This invention is particularly useful for making gradient-dyed plastic sheets which in turn are used for making sunglass lenses.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method for providing an improved abrasion resistant coating on solid substrates such as plastic articles and solid articles prepared thereby having on the surface such abrasion resistant coating. A solid substrate is coated with an organosilanol-type coating liquid comprising organosilanol molecules, or a precursor thereof or a partial condensation product thereof. At least 90 mole percent of said organosilanol molecules are trifunctional silanol molecules of the formula RSi(OH).sub.3, R being a hydrocarbon radical, and at least 50 mole percent of said trisilanols being an alkyl trisilanols of 1-3 carbon atoms or phenyl trisilanol. Preferably, at least 70 mole percent of the trisilanol is methyltrisilanol. After the coating is cured by a conventional means, it is post-treated by an electron beam irradiation to afford an abrasion resistance far superior to that obtained from organosilanol coating liquids without electron beam irradiation post-treatment.

Said reduction is conducted by use of sodium borohydride in a protic solvent medium at a temperature substantially lower than ambient temperature in the presence of an effective amount of an inorganic acid. Under favorable reaction conditions, the stereoselectivity of the reduction is so high that simple crystallization of the reaction product affords the pure isomer in a commercially acceptable and advantageous process.
