摘要:
Described is a process for producing adherent layer(s) on organic polymeric substrates following the steps of (a) treating the surface of the polymeric substrate to provide reactive groups; (b) applying to the surface a polymerizable composition of organic anhydrides, isocyanates and/or a mixture thereof that is substantially free of organosiloxanes; and (c) curing the polymerizable coating. Further steps include applying an additional layer which is substantially free of organosiloxanes and that may or may not contain the polymerizable composition of the present invention. Also described are products produced by the process that may be transparent, tinted, tinted and polarized or photochromic.

Described are novel photochromic benzopyrano-fused naphthopyran compounds, examples of which are naphthopyran compounds having a substituted or unsubstituted benzopyran group fused to one side of the naphtho portion of the naphthopyran and having certain substituents at the position ortho to the oxygen atom of the naphthopyran ring. These compounds may be represented by the following graphic formulae: ##STR1## Also described are polymeric organic host materials that contain or that are coated with such compounds or combinations thereof with complementary photochromic compounds, e.g., certain other naphthopyrans, nenzopyrans, and spiro(indoline)type compounds.
