ORGANIC SUBSTRATES HAVING IMPROVED WEATHERABILITY AND MAR RESISTANCE

摘要

There is a great desire for new organic resin materials that have acceptable weatherability and scratch resistance. Provided are processes and organic resin materials that address these needs. Such materials include a thermoplastic substrate, an adhesion promoter infused into a surface of the thermoplastic such that an inorganic component (IC) of the adhesion promoter is surface exposed and an organic component (OC) of the adhesion promoter penetrates the surface, and a mar resistant coating contacting the substrate absent an intermediate layer. Processes of forming such materials are also provided.

主权项

1. A process of forming a mar resistant organic material comprising:
providing a substrate comprising a thermoplastic material, said substrate having a surface;and
infusing an adhesion promoter into said surface such that an organic component first portion of said adhesion promoter penetrates said surface to form an infused substrate material, and an inorganic second portion of said adhesion promoter extends from said surface or is present at said surface, said first portion and said second portion covalently linked.
