  • Patent number: 5049414
    Abstract: This invention is directed to an antireflection solution having as a main film-forming component thereof a hydrolytic derivative of a silicic ester and to a method for the treatment with the antireflection solution. The antireflection solution and the method for the treatment therewith are characterized by the fact that the hydrolytic derivative of silicic ester is obtained by causing a mixture consisting of the silicic ester and hydrolyzing water added thereto in an amount exceeding the chemical equivalent relative to the silicic ester to be hydrolyzed in the presence of a solvent compatible with both of the components of the mixture and further subjecting the resultant hydrolyzate to conversion into a colloid solution under the condition of pH 3 to 7. Owing to the characteristics mentioned above, the present invention permits the antireflection film produced by thermally solidifying an applied layer of the antireflection solution at a low temperature in the neighborhood of 100.degree. C.

  • Patent number: 4944962
    Abstract: A method is disclosed which concerns the treatment for imparting dirtproofness to a plastic lens provided in advance on the surface thereof with an antireflection film formed by vacuum evaporation of an inorganic substance. This method forms a dirtproofing film on the antireflection film by mixing a polyfluoroalkyl silane-containing coating liquid and trichlorotrifluoroethane and boiling the resultant mixture, dip coating the plastic lens in the boiled mixture, then treating the dip coated plastic lens with the vapor of fluoroethane, subsequently drying the wet plastic lens with hot air, and optionally immersing the dried plastic lens in water.

  • Patent number: 4294950
    Abstract: A coating composition according to the invention comprises at least one compound selected from hydrolyzates of glycidoxyalkyltrialkoxysilane or (3,4-epoxycyclohexyl) alkylalkoxysilane, a compound selected from the group consisting of unsaturated or saturated polyvalent carboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof, and a curing agent. The composition is coated to the surface of plastic molded product and then cured to constitute a coating film, thereby imparting to the molded product an improved surface hardness, abrasion resistance, antistatic property, thermal resistance etc.
