SLURRY COMPOSITION AND ADDITIVES AND METHOD FOR POLISHING ORGANIC POLYMER-BASED OPHTHALMIC SUBSTRATES

摘要

The present invention provides a slurry composition and method for polishing organic polymer-based ophthalmic substrates. The slurry composition according to the invention includes an aqueous dispersion of abrasive particles and one of a polyvinyl alcohol compound, and a tertiary amide functionalized compound. The abrasive particles can be alumina, zirconia, silica, titania, ceria, spinel or combinations of the foregoing.
