Disclosed is a method of producing a high-quality thiourethane-based optical material using a general-purpose polyisocyanate compound. According to the method, the pH of a polythiol compound is adjusted to 3.1 to 7 to prevent the occurrence of whitening, which is a problem of the prior art arising from the dissolution of a pressure-sensitive adhesive from a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape upon lens casting. The°pH adjustment increases the reaction rate of a resin composition including the polythiol compound. The use of the polythiol compound whose pH is adjusted enables the production of a thiourethane-based optical material that does not suffer from whitening at the edges of the optical lens and nonuniformity polymerization. Further disclosed are a resin composition for a thiourethane-based optical material, and an optical material including a resin produced by the method. |
