  • Patent number: 5409965
    Abstract: An active energy ray-curing abrasion resistant coating composition is provided by incorporating following components: (a) a carboxylate-containing polyfunctional acrylate obtained by reacting a tetracarboxylic dianhydride and a hydroxyl group-containing polyfunctional acrylate having hydroxyl group(s) and at least three acryloyl groups and then neutralizing the reaction product; (b) a polyfunctional acrylate having at least three acryloyl groups; (c) an organic solvent; and (d) a photopolymerization initiator. The composition may comprise in addition to the components (e) a silica sol in an organic solvent as a dispersion medium. The composition may further comprise in addition to the components (f) an acrylic resin. Such composition is an active energy ray-curing abrasion-resistant coating composition which forms a film having excellent adhesion to a plastic sustrate, transparency, abrasion resistance and antistatic properties.

  • Patent number: 5378735
    Abstract: An ultraviolet-curing covering composition comprising Component A which is obtained by reacting a hydroxyl group-containing polyfunctional acrylate with a silane coupling agent containing an isocyanate group(s), Component B of a polyfunctional acrylate having 3 or more acryloyl groups in the molecule, Component C of a silica sol in an organic solvent, and Component D of a photopolymerization initiator. This composition forms a coating film shows excellent hardwearing properties and adhesion to plastic substrates after ultraviolet-curing. Blending Component E of an acrylic resin and Component F of a solvent to the composition forms a coating film which can be processed before curing.

  • Patent number: 5174848
    Abstract: A process for producing a propylene resin formed article with a hard coat is disclosed, comprising forming an ultraviolet-curing acrylic resin coating film on the surface of a propylene resin film or sheet, subjecting the film or sheet with the coating film to thermoforming, and irradiating the coating film to ultraviolet rays to cure said ultraviolet-curing resin, wherein said propylene resin film or sheet is composed of at least a propylene resin surface layer containing substantially no nucleating agent on which surface is coated said acrylic resin film and a thermoplastic resin base layer containing a nucleating agent which is laminated on the other side of said propylene resin surface layer prior to the thermoforming. The hard coat on the propylene resin formed article has high gloss.

  • Patent number: 5102488
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for forming a cured-resin layer having a surface with antistatic properties. An ultraviolet-curable resin having antistatic properties is laminated on an ultraviolet-curable resin for forming an electrostatic cured surface by curing and the two layers then being simultaneously cured by ultraviolet irradiation thereon. A cured-resin layer is thereby obtained where the surface layer of the cured resin is provided with antistatic properties, and is strongly held by chemical bonding.

  • Patent number: 4322327
    Abstract: A novel slow-curing water-curable urethane prepolymer composition obtained by reacting (A) a hydrophilic urethane prepolymer which is a reaction product of a polyisocyanate and a hydrophilic polyol prepolymer and has at least two --NCO groups and (B) a blocking agent selected from a class consisting of heterocyclic compounds having an ##STR1## structure in the molecule thereof, hydroxypyridines and hydroxyquinolines in the proportion that the equivalent ratio of the .dbd.NH groups of the --OH groups in the blocking agent (B) to the --NCO groups in the hydrophilic urethane prepolymer (A), that is, --OH or .dbd.NH/--NCO ratio, is 0.05 to 2 is disclosed. This composition is remarkably useful as a grouting material, for forming hydrogel which is effective as a fixative or carrier of various materials, as a vehicle for coating materials, and as a stabilizer and thickener for aqueous resin emulsions.
