The present invention relates to a glass substrate which is characterized in that it has a primer layer that is formed thereon and includes a hydrolysis product of a hydrolysable silicon compound having an alkylene group and a hydrolysis product of a hydrolysable zirconium compound or hydrolysable titanium compound, and that, in the primer layer, zirconium is in an amount by weight ratio of 0.0002 times to 0.0025 times that of silicon, or titanium is in an amount by weight ratio of 0.0005 times to 0.0045 times that of silicon. Furthermore, the present invention relates to an anti-fogging article having a resin film that exhibits water-absorptive property and/or hydrophilic property and is formed on the primer layer of the glass substrate.

Glass substrate having primer layer formed thereon and anti-fogging article

A holographic laminate to be used in a vehicular windshield or windowpane and an architectural window glass in order to display a variety of images for the expressive and decorative purposes. The holographic laminate comprises a transparent plate on which a hologram is mounted. An ultraviolet ray absorbing film is disposed on a side of the hologram through which side sunlight enter the hologram. A layer of an adhesive is disposed to secure the hologram to the transparent plate layer. A barrier film is disposed between the hologram and the adhesive layer to protect the hologram from being chemically affected by the adhesive layer.

The invention provides a liquid coating composition for forming a transparent and hard coating film on a plastic member such as a polycarbonate or polymethyl methacrylate plate. The liquid composition comprises 100 parts by weight of an organotrialkoxysilane R.sup.1 Si(OR.sup.2).sub.3, where R.sup.1 is a C.sub.1 - or C.sub.2 -alkyl group and R.sup.2 is a C.sub.1 -, C.sub.2 - or C.sub.3 -alkyl group, 5-20 parts by weight of an organotrialkoxysilane R.sup.3 Si(OR.sup.2).sub.3, where R.sup.3 is an organic group containing epoxy group, 50-200 parts by weight of an aqueous colloidal silica sol in which the content of SiO.sub.2 is 10-40 wt %, and 0.5-3 parts by weight of a dicarboxylic acid (CF.sub.2).sub.n (COOH).sub.2, where n is an integer from 1 to 5, preferably hexafluoroglutaric acid. On a surface of a plastic member a coating film of this composition is partially cured at 70.degree.-150.degree. C. to turn into a fairly hard but still pliable film. Then the plastic member can be shaped so as to bend the coated surface without suffering from cracking or peeling of the partially cured film. After that the film is treated with an aqueous alkali solution and then further cured at 80.degree.-150.degree. C.
