ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT ABSORBING COMPOUNDS, SILICONE COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR MAKING SAME

摘要

An ultraviolet light absorbing silicone composition is disclosed which comprises silicone base polymer and ultraviolet light absorbing component present as, or derived from, one or more silicon-containing ultraviolet light absorbing benzotriazole derivatives. Also disclosed are methods for producing such silicone compositions and derivatives. Such silicone compositions, which are preferably optically clear, are useful as lens materials.
