Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method of preparing a photochromic polymeric article including: (a) providing a fluid polymerizable composition of: at least one monomer; a first initiator for inducing polymerization of the monomer at a first temperature; and a second initiator for inducing further polymerization at a second temperature higher than the first temperature; (b) heating the polymerizable composition to at least the first temperature whereby the first initiator induces polymerization of the monomer at the first temperature to produce a polymerizate; (c) heating the polymerizate of (b) to at least the second temperature to further polymerize the polymerizate; and (d) contacting the polymerizate with an organic photochromic substance to incorporate the organic photochromic substance into the polymerizate. Photochromic articles prepared by the method are also provided.
