RESEARCH ON ABSORBING INFRARED RAYS WITH PLASTICS AND ATTENUATING INFRARED RAYS WITH COATINGS

Abstract

With the specific objective of developing a plastic or coating composition having strong nearinfrared attenuation and high visible transmittance, a number of organic c pounds were prepared and along with many compounds from chemical files were examined spectrophotometrically in solution. Those with near-infrared absorption were incorporated into plastics by one or more of the following methods: solution casting, milling and molding, monomer casting, burnishing, or dyeing. Absorption properties were then measured and light stabilities were determined after accelerated light exposure tests. (Author)
