23. A method of imparting anti-reflective, abrasion resistance, and anti-fogging properties to an optically clear substrate, the method comprising the steps of:
-
providing a substrate having a surface; providing a coating composition on the surface of the substrate, the coating composition comprising a fluoropolymer and a fluorochemical surfactant; and causing the coating composition to harden on the surface of the substrate; said fluoropolymer and fluorochemical surfactant being selected such that the substrate coated with the coating composition is anti-reflective, abrasion resistant, and anti-fogging. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
