Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A spectacle lens including an antifouling layer which is a condensate of an antifouling agent composition containing: 10 to 70 mass % of a compound (A) having a silyl group and a fluorinated alkyl group; and 30 to 90 mass % of a compound (B) having a silyl group at one end, a reactive group at the other end, and a polysiloxane chain structure.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A spectacle lens comprising an antifouling layer which is a condensate of an antifouling agent composition comprising: 10 to 70 mass % of a compound (A) having a silyl group and a fluorinated alkyl group; and 30 to 90 mass % of a compound (B) having a silyl group at one end, a reactive group at the other end, and a polysiloxane chain structure. 2 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein the compound (A) has the silyl group at one end and the fluorinated alkyl group at the other end. 3 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein the compound (A) is represented by formula (1): in which R 1 s each independently represent a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R 2 s each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, n is 0 or 1, R 3 s each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, m is 0 to 10, Rf 3 s each independently represent a divalent fluorinated hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, p is 10 to 100, and Rf 5 represents a fluorinated alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. 4 . The spectacle lens according to claim 3 , wherein (Orf 4 ) p in formula (1) is a group represented by formula (f4-1): in which a is 0 to 100, b is 0 to 100, c is 0 to 100, and a+b+c is 10 to 200. 5 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein the compound (B) is represented by formula (2): in which R a represents a reactive group, R 10 s each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a is 0 to 10, R 11 s each independently represent a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or an alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, b is 0 to 10, c is 1 to 100, R 1 s each independently represent a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, R 2 s each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, n is 0 or 1, R 3 s each independently represent a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, m is 0 to 10, Rf 4 s each independently represent a divalent fluorinated hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and p is 10 to 100. 6 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein the reactive group is at least one selected from the group consisting of a 5 ydroxyl group, a vinyl group, a silyl group, an epoxy group, and an alkoxy group. 7 . The spectacle lens according to claim 6 , wherein the R a is a group represented by formula (a1): or formula (a2): in which R a1 , R a2 , R a3 , and R a4 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. 8 . The spectacle lens according to claim 5 , wherein (Orf 4 ) p in formula (2) is a group represented by formula (f4-1): in which a is 0 to 100, b is 0 to 100, c is 0 to 100, and a+b+c is 10 to 200. 9 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein a total value of surface free energy of the antifouling layer is more than 10.0 mJ/m 2 . 10 . The spectacle lens according to claim 1 , wherein a base component of surface free energy of the antifouling layer is more than 0.95 mJ/m 2 . 11 . An antifouling agent composition comprising: 10 to 70 mass % of a compound (A) having a silyl group and a fluorinated alkyl group; and 30 to 90 mass % of a compound (B) having a silyl group at one end, a reactive group at the other end, and a polysiloxane chain structure. 12 . A method for manufacturing a spectacle lens, the method comprising: forming an antifouling layer on a spectacle lens with an antifouling agent composition comprising: a compound (A) having a silyl group and a fluorinated alkyl group; and a compound (B) having a silyl group at one end, a reactive group at the other end, and a silyloxy chain site.
