Abstract: A resin substrate having a hard coat formed from a hard coat composition which comprises colloidal silica, a silicon compound having a fluoroalkyl group and optionally an ultraviolet light absorbing organic group. This resin substrate can retain water-repellency even when it is used in the open air and prevent the adhesion of a stain while it keeps its abrasion resistance for a long time by the hard coat composition.

Abstract: A plastic lens having a primer layer made from a polyurethane resin obtained through a reaction between a polyester polyol containing isophthalic acid as a main component and a polyisocyanate. A plastic lens having excellent resistance to scratch and impact resistance can be obtained by further forming a hard-coat layer and an anti-reflection layer on the primer layer.

Abstract: There is provided a coating composition for the formation of a hard coat having sufficient adhesivity to acrylic resin molded articles. A hard coat obtained by dispersing and dissolving a (partial) hydrolyzate of an organofunctional silane and colloidal silica in a benzyl alcohol solvent is coated on an acrylic resin molded article produced by cell casting or continuous casting to obtain an abrasion-resistant molded article.

Abstract: An antimicrobial agent which is a carboxyl group containing amine compound. The compound has the characteristics of an amphoteric surfactant and is silyl group containing. The compound is prepared by reacting an amine, a silane, and a carboxylic acid.

Abstract: A method of preparing silyl group containing carboxylic acid type amphoteric surfactants in which a hydrocarbon substituted amine compound (1) is reacted with a silane compound (2) to produce a reaction product having at least one amino or imino group in the molecule. The reaction product of (1) and (2) is in turn reacted with a functionalized carboxylic acid to produce the desired amphoteric surfactant material.
