A transparent cover layer of a soft elastic polyurethane for windshields or other transparent glass or plastic substrates. In order to give the cover layer an anti-fogging effect, the polyol component of the reaction mixture for the manufacture of the cover layer contains a difunctional sulfonated polyether polyol or a difunctional polyether polyol containing sulfonate groups having 0.5 to 13.2 percent by weight of OH groups and an average molecular weight of about 250 to 6500 g/mol, a trifunctional polyol having 5.1 to 12.8 percent by weight of OH groups and an average molecular weight of from 400 to about 1000 g/mol, as well as a non-ionic polyetherpolysiloxane having an average molecular weight of from 500 to 2000 g/mol.

Transparent cover for transparent substrates

A high optical quality polyurethane coating layer, with self-repairing and fog-resistant properties, utilized for panes made of glass and/or plastic materials. The layer is formed from a reactive mixture composed 10 to 75% by weight of a biuret or an isocyanurate of 1,6 hexamethylenediisocyanate, having a content of about 15 to 25% weight of NCO radicals and having an average molecular weight between about 450 and 850 and comprised about 90 to 25% by weight of a polyalcohol component essentially comprised of a plurifunctional polyalcohol having about 0.4 to 17% of its percentage weight comprised of OH radicals, and having a molecular weight between about 200 and 15,000, and having ethoxy-propoxy chains, comprised 50 to 90% by weight of ethoxy radicals and 50 to 10% by weight of propoxy radicals.
