Abstract

The present invention relates to a curable composition for an optical material, containing (A) 100 parts by mass of a radical polymerizable monomer, (B) 0.005 to 0.5 parts by mass of a tetraazaporphyrin compound having a maximum absorption wavelength in a range of 560 nm or more and 620 nm or less, and (C) 0.1 to 10 parts by mass of an ultraviolet absorber having a maximum absorption wavelength in a range of 330 nm or more and 350 nm or less. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a curable composition for an optical material, capable of being suitably used as a coating material that can easily provide an optical material having good antiglare properties and excellent weather resistance.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

(C) 0.1 to 10 parts by mass of an ultraviolet absorber having a maximum absorption wavelength in a range of 330 nm or more and 350 nm or less; and
(D) a photopolymerization initiator.

2. The curable composition for an optical material according to claim 1 , wherein the tetraazaporphyrin compound (B) is a tetraazaporphyrin compound represented by the following formula (1):

wherein, X 1 to X 8 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a nitro group, a cyano group, a hydroxy group, an amino group, a carboxy group, a sulfonic acid group, a linear, branched or cyclic alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a linear, branched or cyclic alkoxy group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryloxy group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, a monoalkylamino group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a dialkylamino group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group having 7 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, a heteroaryl group, an alkylthio group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, or an arylthio group having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, and may form a ring excluding an aromatic ring via a linking group; and M represents two hydrogen atoms, a divalent metal atom, a divalent mono-substituted metal atom, a trivalent substituted metal atom, a tetravalent substituted metal atom, or a metal oxide atom.

3. A cured body obtained by curing the curable composition for an optical material according to claim 1 .

4. An optical material obtained by laminating an optical substrate and the cured body according to claim 3 .

5. The optical material according to claim 4 , wherein the cured body has a thickness of 5 to 70 μm.
