Abstract
Provided is a curable photochromic coating composition including (a) a polyol component, (b) a poly(anhydride) having at least three cyclic anhydride groups, (c) a secondary crosslinker, and (d) a photochromic material. The polyol component includes (i) a first polyol having two hydroxyl groups and a hydroxyl equivalent weight of at least 15,000 g/mol and (ii) a second polyol different from the first polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups and a hydroxyl equivalent weight of at least 300 g/mol. The secondary crosslinker is selected from a poly(carbodiimide), an oxazoline-functional material, or mixtures thereof. The present invention also provides an optical article prepared from the curable photochromic coating composition.
