METHODS FOR REDUCING THE TIME TO PRODUCE A MAR AND/OR SCRATCH RESISTANT COATING ON A SUBSTRATE

摘要

Disclosed are methods for reducing the time required to produce a mar and/or scratch resistant coating on a substrate. The methods comprise (a) applying a coating composition to the substrate, then (b) partially crosslinking crosslinkable components in the composition, and then (c) allowing the coating composition to post cure, wherein, between steps (b) and (c), and after step (c), a mar and/or scratch resistant coating is present on the substrate. Also disclosed are substrates, such as plastic substrates, at least partially coated with a coating produced by such methods as well as related articles of manufacture.
