摘要:
A soft, transparent and processable thermoplastic polyurethane resin suitable in optical application is disclosed. The resin is the product of reacting a diisocyanate, a chain extender, and a mixture of polyether polyols. The mixture of polyether polyols comprise (A) a C4 polyether polyol and (B) a C2-C3 polyether polyol where the weight ratio A/B is in the range of about 85/15 to 15/85.

A hydrophobic polyurethane elastomer is disclosed comprising an isocyanate terminated prepolymer having an isocyanate content ranging from 4 to 12 wt. % NCO comprising the reaction product of: i) an OH terminated homopolymer of butadiene having molecular weight ranging from 1000 to 4000 and an OH functionality of from 1.9 to 2.1; ii) an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic diisocyanate; and a diol chain extender having a molecular weight ranging from 62 to 400.
摘要:
A process for making a photochromic optical lens is disclosed. In a first embodiment of the process a multi-plied laminate, containing a ply of photochromic thermoplastic polyurethane (herein “TPU”) and a ply containing thermoplastic polycarbonate, is first placed in the cavity of a suitable mold. The ply that contains polycarbonate resin is placed facing the cavity. Thermoplastic polycarbonate resin is then injected into the cavity. In a second embodiment, referred to as an over-mold method, polycarbonate is first injection molded into a molding cavity to form a substrate. Photochromic TPU is, in a subsequent step, injected into the cavity to form a superstrate overlay. In both embodiments, the articles thus molded are suitable for the preparation of optical lenses.
