Title:
METHOD FOR PRODUCING SILICONE-CONTAINING COPOLYMER MOLDED ARTICLE HAVING HYDROPHILIC SURFACE, AND SILICONE HYDROGEL CONTACT LENS HAVING HYDROPHILIC SURFACE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/001811
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing, using a cast molding production method, a silicone-containing copolymer molded article which has a hydrophilic surface without using a high molecular weight hydrophilic polymer and even if a polypropylene molding die is used. Also provided is a silicone hydrogel soft contact lens. This method for producing a silicone-containing copolymer molded article having a hydrophilic surface involves polymerizing a monomer solution that contains (a) a silicone monomer having a (meth)acryloyl group, (b) a hydrophilic monomer having a vinyl group, (c) a crosslinkable monomer and (d) a polymerization initiator in a cavity of a molding die having a hydrophobic cavity surface. The polymerization initiator has a 10 hour half-life temperature (T10) of 70-100°C, and the polymerization is carried out in a P1 step, in which the temperature is maintained for one hour or longer within a temperature range between the T10 value of the polymerization initiator contained in the monomer solution and a temperature that is 35°C lower than the T10 value, and a P2 step, in which the temperature is maintained for one hour or longer at a temperature that is higher than the T10 value of the polymerization initiator contained in the monomer solution.
