Abstract

A primer composition for optical articles includes (A) a urethane prepolymer which is a reaction product of an aromatic polyisocyanate compound and a polyol compound, and which has a reactive group at an end, the reactive group being selected from among an isocyanate group and a hydroxyl group, (B) a light absorbing compound which has a maximum absorption wavelength within the range of from 320 nm to 650 nm (inclusive) and (C) an organic solvent which has a solubility parameter of 8 (cal/cm 3 ) 1/2 or more, while containing no active hydrogen.

Claims (22)
