Description

Show the photochromic material of improved fade rates
The cross reference of related application
The application has required in the right of priority of the temporary patent application sequence number 60/855,270 of submission on October 30th, 2006, and this patent application is incorporated to herein by reference.
Invention field
Relate generally to photochromic material of the present invention, and relate more particularly to show the photochromic material that comprises indeno [2 ', 3 ': 3,4] naphtho-s [1,2-b] pyrans of improved fade rates.The invention further relates to the photochromic article that comprises this photochromic material.
Background of invention
Photochromic material experiences the structural transformation from a kind of form (or state) to another kind of form (or state) in response to the electromagnetic radiation of some wavelength, wherein each form has the characteristic absorption spectrum of visible radiation.For example, thermal reversibility photochromic material can be activated state form from ground state formal transformation in response to actinic radiation, and is returned to ground state form in response to heat energy with under existing without actinic radiation.Term used herein " actinic radiation " refers to and can cause that photochromic material is the electromagnetic radiation of another kind of form or state from a kind of form or state-transition.
The photochromic material that is applicable to ophthalmic applications is (being ground state form) of colourless or " optical clear " conventionally substantially in the time not being exposed to actinic radiation; and in the time being exposed to actinic radiation, show visible color, this visible color is the feature of the absorption spectrum of the activated state form of photochromic material.The photochromic molectron that comprises one or more photochromic materials and goods for example can show for the photochromic lens of eyewear applications the optical clear of photochromic material and the transparent and colored state of colored state that conventionally comprise corresponding to them.
For some application, wish that photochromic material can make from colourless ground state form rapid as far as possible to the transformation of coloured activated state form.Conventionally wish in addition that photochromic material can make to get back to from coloured activated state form the reverse transformation of colourless ground state form rapid as far as possible.For example, in photochromic lens application, as wearer, from low photochemical radiation areas, for example indoor high actinic radiation region that moves to is for example exposed to the DT, and the glasses that comprise photochromic material may change colored state into from vitreous state.When glasses become when coloured, the less electromagnetic radiation transmitted through glasses with the wavelength in the visible and/or ultraviolet region of electromagnetic spectrum arrives wearer's eyes.In other words, the eyeglass of colored state absorbs more electromagnetic radiation than the eyeglass of vitreous state.In the time that wearer moves back to low photochemical radiation areas from high actinic radiation region subsequently, the photochromic material in the situation that existing without actinic radiation and absorbing heat energy in eyeglass can be returned to optically transparent ground state form from coloured activated state form.If the cost of the transformation from optical clear state to colored state in the time being exposed to actinic radiation several minutes or longer, the benefit visible and/or ultraviolet radiation transmission of the reduction that can obtain from the eyeglass of colored state may be reduced.In addition, if spend several minutes or longer once the transformation of removing from actinic radiation from colored state to optical clear state, may be inferior to optimum regime in this time durations wearer's vision, this is because the visible ray that passes through tinted glasses of lower surround lighting and reduction sees through due to the combined effect of effect.Therefore, wish to develop and can more promptly be coloured activated state form and be the photochromic material of optically transparent ground state form from coloured activated state formal transformation from optically transparent ground state formal transformation.
In addition, conventional photochromic material shows " direction " dependency conventionally.That is to say, when photochromic material directly towards light source for example when direct sunlight colour-change the most remarkable, in the time that described material is exposed to light source indirectly, photochromic effect is not significantly or completely.Therefore, need less directional dependence, show the photochromic material of the basic more consistent colour-change degree haveing nothing to do with respect to the orientation of photochromic material with light source.
