Description

Optical resin composition and optical lens

The present invention relates to an optical resin composition and an optical lens obtained from the composition.

Many optical materials that constitute an imaging optical system such as a camera are known. In particular, organic optical materials such as plastic lenses are lighter and harder to break than inorganic materials, can be processed into various shapes, and have a high degree of freedom in designing materials with desired characteristics. Recently, it is rapidly spreading in various applications.

Generally, an imaging optical system such as a camera is configured by combining a plurality of types of optical lenses having different optical properties. In particular, a technique for correcting chromatic aberration of an optical system by combining optical lenses having different refractive index wavelength dispersion characteristics is employed. Conventionally, the Abbe number νd is mainly used as an index indicating wavelength dispersion characteristics, and it has been attempted to correct chromatic aberration by combining a material having a high Abbe number and a material having a low Abbe number.

Furthermore, as a method of correcting chromatic aberration at a higher level with respect to organic optical materials, it has been proposed to use an optical material that exhibits a low Abbe number and a specific partial dispersion ratio θg, F (Patent Document 1). ).

On the other hand, Patent Document 2 describes that an organic-inorganic composite material in which inorganic fine particles are dispersed in a thermoplastic resin having a specific benzotriazole skeleton has a high refractive index and a low Abbe number. Patent Document 3 describes that a high refractive index polymer having a benzotriazole skeleton as an ultraviolet absorbing group is excellent in light resistance and does not cause bleed-out with respect to materials used for paints and the like.

Generally, although the partial dispersion ratio tends to be relatively high when the Abbe number is low, a material having a low Abbe number does not always exhibit a sufficiently high partial dispersion ratio. Furthermore, conventionally, materials exhibiting a low Abbe number and a high partial dispersion ratio often lack characteristics required for optical lenses such as light transmittance, heat resistance, and light resistance. For example, an optical material including a compound having a diphenyl sulfide skeleton disclosed in Patent Document 1 has low light resistance and heat resistance, and there is room for improvement in terms of long-term reliability.

When the first radical polymerizable component and the second radical polymerizable component are radically polymerized, a resin material containing these polymers is formed. The Abbe number νd and the partial dispersion ratio θg, F of the resin material are expressed by the following formula:
18 ≦ νd ≦ 25; and θg, F ≧ 0.700
