The Triarylmethane Photochromic System for Flashblindness Protection
Abstract
A systematic study of three triarylmethane derivatives, synthesized for the purpose of providing improved flashblindness protection, was carried out. Use of photochromic compounds improved protection against flashblindness was evaluated. The systematic study of three triarylmethane compounds, synthesized specifically for use in eye protection devices, was carried out. Their characteristics which are essential to eye protection (ie, absorption, speed of response, photostability), were measured to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach and to describe the current status of photochromic flashblindness protection.
