The present invention discloses compositions as well as methods of making and using said compositions, having improved stability which, when applied to a variety of substrates and cured, form transparent coatings which have abrasion resistant properties, a matched refractive index to that of the substrate, and which can be tailored to control the extent of tint absorption (vide infra). The compositions comprise an aqueous-organic solvent mixture containing a mixture of hydrolysis products and partial condensates of an epoxy-functional silane, a carboxylic acid functional compound selected from the group consisting of carboxylic acids, multifunctional carboxylic acids, anhydrides, and combinations thereof, a metal oxide composite colloid, and a disilane. The coating compositions may further include a mixture of hydrolysis products and partial condensates of one or more silane additives, a colloidal silica material, and a tetrafunctional silane.

Composition for providing an abrasion resistant coating on a substrate with a matched refractive index and controlled tintability

Liquid coating compositions and methods for formulating the same are disclosed. The compositions comprise the combination of an epoxy-functional silane, a multipodal silane, and a strong acid dispersed within a solvent. The liquid coating compositions are formulated to be applied to a substrate and thereafter cured. The resultant coating is transparent and abrasion-resistant. The coating may include additional additives or may be specifically formulated to possess specific properties as may be desired for a specific application. Such coating compositions can further be formulated such that the refractive index thereof can be adjusted to correspond to the refractive index of the substrate to which the liquid coating compositions are applied.
