Abstract: An ultraviolet curing liquid coating composition which, when cured with ultraviolet light in the presence of an appropriate photoinitiator, provides a coating adapted for the coating of optical glass fiber. This coating composition comprises as the essential component, an acrylate-terminated polyurethane oligomer based on a polyfunctional core which is at least trifunctional and which supports one branch for each functionality in the core. Each of the branches leads to an acrylate-functional terminal group, with there being from about 150 to about 2500 units of molecular weight in each branch between the trifunctional core and the acrylate-functional terminal group. Depending primarily upon the molecular weight of the branches, one can provide coating compositions for buffer coat, single coat or topcoat use.

Abstract: A process for forming on the surface of a substrate a layer of a siloxane polymer by exposing the substrate to a first vapor phase monomer precursor having the formula SiR.sub.x H.sub.4-x where x is 1 to 4 and R is alkyl or phenyl, and a second vapor phase oxygen-containing precursor in the presence of radiation of a predetermined wavelength to bring about the reaction to form the siloxane polymer which deposits on the surface of substrate. The monomer precursor may comprise a mixture, such as SiRH.sub.3 and SiR.sub.2 H.sub.2 with each other or with SiR.sub.3 H. By varying the composition of such mixtures, the composition of the siloxane polymer may be chosen to provide predetermined properties, and, further, may be varied throughout the thickness of the deposited layer.

Abstract: Compositions hardenable by exposure to heat or electromagnetic radiation are provided by dissolving together to form a blend from about 0% to about 50% by weight of an uncrosslinked polymer, from about 2% to about 30% of a polymerizable monomer, from about 10% to about 70% of a crosslinked polymer in the form of discrete particles having average diameters of from 0.001 micron to about 500 microns and being swollen in said solution and from about 20% to about 70% of a crosslinking agent for said monomer. Such compositions exhibit superior chemical and physical characteristics when hardened and are suitable in a wide variety of applications as construction media. Such compositions are especially suitable in the production of prosthetic dental appliances, such as, for example, prosthetic teeth. It is believed that the hardening of such compositions as, for example, during the preparation of dental appliances forms a polymer system known as an interpenetrating polymer network.
