Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an antistatic monomer suitable for a refractive index of 1.56, its preparation method and application, belonging to the technical field of resin lens monomers. Background Technology
[0002] Eyeglasses are subjected to various external pressures during wear, including pressure from the head, the weight of the glasses themselves, and vibrations from daily activities. If eyeglasses cannot effectively withstand these static pressures, it can lead to frame deformation, lens displacement, or breakage, thus affecting vision and comfort. Therefore, static pressure resistance is crucial for eyeglasses.
[0003] The primary purpose of static pressure resistance in eyeglasses is to ensure that they can withstand external pressure during use, maintaining their structural and functional stability. Static pressure resistance is a crucial consideration in the design and manufacturing of eyeglasses, aiming to ensure they can withstand various external pressures during use, maintaining their structural and functional stability, thereby providing a better wearing experience and vision protection.
[0004] Currently, MR-8™ lenses are among the best antistatic lenses available. MR-8™ lenses excel in antistatic properties, absorbing external energy and ensuring the wearer's comfort and safety. MR-8™ lenses significantly outperform materials like acrylic in tensile strength, demonstrating superior strength and durability. Notably, they only break when subjected to tensile forces up to 72kg, showcasing exceptional performance.
[0005] The main component of MR-8™ lenses is polyurethane resin (PU). MR-8™ has a refractive index of 1.60 and an Abbe number of 41, possessing the characteristics of high refractive index and high Abbe number, while also being impact-resistant, flexible, and easy to process. Its material structure gives the lenses a thinner and lighter profile, making them thinner than traditional 1.50 and 1.56 refractive index lenses for the same optical power. The material is not easily shattered during surface treatment, making it suitable for rimless, semi-rimless, and other special design frames. After processing, the lenses have strong resistance to hydrostatic loads, and are not prone to chipping even if dropped.
[0006] Polyurethane (PU) has excellent elasticity, tensile properties and hydrostatic resistance. However, polyurethane has relatively poor abrasion resistance and heat resistance. The surface of polyurethane (PU) is easily scratched. In addition, polyurethane (PU) tends to soften in hot water at 80°C. Prolonged immersion or boiling can easily cause the outer edge of the lens to warp.
[0007] Polycarbonate (PC) is a rigid polymer material with bisphenol A linked to carbonate groups. This stable cyclic molecular framework endows it with outstanding resistance to deformation and transparency, thus giving PC high transparency, heat resistance, weather resistance, and UV resistance. However, due to the rigid structure of PC, its tensile properties are low and its hydrostatic compressibility is poor. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-performance hydrostatic monomer suitable for a refractive index of 1.56, as well as its preparation method and applications. Summary of the Invention
