In a method for the production of cyclohexanecarboguanamine by the reaction of cyanocylohexane with dicyandiamide in an organic solvent possessing a hydroxyl group in the molecular unit thereof at a temperature in the range of 90.degree. to 200.degree. C. in the presence of a basic catalyst, the improvement which comprises carrying out the reaction using 0.60 to 0.95 mol of dicyandiamide per mol of cyanocylohexane in an atmosphere substantially incapable of producing any effect of oxygent.

Method for production of cyclohexanecarboguanamine

A method for the production of methylolaminotriazine condensate by the reaction of cyclohexanecarboguanamine (A) and formaldehyde (B), which method comprises preparing a solution of formaldehyde (B) or a solution containing cyclohexanecarboguanamine (A) and formaldehyde (B) in such amounts that the molar ratio of (A)/(B) will be not more than 1/2.5, keeping the temperature of said solution in the range of 55.degree. to 150.degree. C. and, at the same time, gradually supplying cyclohexanecarboguanaimine (A) thereto.

A resin having a low specific gravity, an excellent impact resistance and a high refractive index can be produced by radical polymerization of a polymerizable monomer mixture composed essentially of [I] at least one polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of specific polyfunctional (meth)acrylates, [II] at least one polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of styrene and alpha-methylstyrene, and [III] at least one polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of unsaturated nitriles. This invention provides an optical material composed of said resin, especially, a lens.

Optical material composed of resin having high refractive index

A process for producing a resin having a high refractivve index which comprises radically polymerizing a material monomer, characterized in that said material monomer comprises [I] at least one polymerizable monomer selected from the group consisting of a polyfunctional thioacrylate and a polyfnctional thiomethacrylate (as an indispensable component), and optionally [II] at least one other polymerizable monomer which is radically polymerizable with said polymerizable monomer [I], a resin having a high refractive index produced by said process and optical materials, especially lenses and disk substrates prepared from said resin.
