Abstract

Abstract A coating composition which results from hydrolyzing 35 to 70 weight percent tetraethyl orthosilicate and 60 to 20 weight percent of certain silane is useful for providing abrasion resisting coatings for plastics after curing. Optionally, up to 20 weight percent of a silane having a reactive polar site or, in the alternative, a small percentage of a surfactant may be used to provide a dyeable coated article.
