<p>A process, and the article produced thereby, for providing a uniformly and tenaciously adhered abrasion resistant and chemical resistant non-opaque coating on polycarbonate articles. The process comprises priming the surface of the polycarbonate article with an adhesion promoting thermoplastic acrylic polymer by forming a thin film of said thermoplastic acrylic polymer on the surface of the polycarbonate article, applying a silica filled organopolysiloxane coating composition onto the primed polycarbonate article, and thereafter curing the silica filled organopolysiloxane to form a hard, abrasion and chemical solvent resistant top coat which is tenaciously adhered to the polycarbonate article. The non-opaque coated polycarbonate article produced by this process comprises a polycarbonate substrate having (i) a primer layer comprised of a thermoplastic acrylic polymer, and (ii) a thermoset silica filled organopolysiloxane top coat.</p> |
