Abstract
Hydroxyl organofunctional silicone solutions were prepared by acid-catalyze d hydrolysis and condensation of tetraalkoxysilanes, alkoxysilane modified organic compounds, and hydroxyl functional trialkoxysilanes or epoxy functi onal silanes. These silicone solutions were mixed with methoxylated urea fo rmaldehyde and methoxylated melamine formaldehyde to form silicone/amine re sin hybrids and applied on bisphenol A polycarbonate substrates as coatings . After thermal curing at 100-125 degreesC for 2-3 h, several optically tra nsparent hard coatings with excellent abrasion resistance were obtained.
