## Abstract

In a method for forming an abrasion-resistant coating film by heat-curing a coating composition composed mainly of a partially hydrolyzed product of alkoxysilane represented by the formula: R.sub.n.sup.4 Si(OR.sup.5).sub.4-n wherein n is an integer of 0 to 2; R.sup.4 is alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, phenyl, allyl, vinyl, methacryloxy, methacryloxyalkyl, mercaptoalkyl, aminoalkyl, epoxyalkyl, epoxyalkyloxy, epoxyalkyloxyalkyl, tetrahydrofuryl or fluoroalkyl; and R.sup.5 is alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, an improvement comprises using as a curing catalyst one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of alkali metal salts of thio-acid, dithio-acid and their derivatives; barbituric acid and its derivatives; and .beta.-dicarbonyl compound.

## Claims

### Claim 1

In a method for forming an abrasion-resistant coating film by heat-curing a coating composition on the surface of a substrate, said composition composed mainly of a partially hydrolyzed product of alkoxysilane represented by the formula:
R.sub.n.sup.4 Si(OR.sup.5).sub.4-n
wherein n is an integer of 0 to 2; R.sup.4 is alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, phenyl, allyl, vinyl, methacryloxy, methacryloxyalkyl, mercaptoalkyl, aminoalkyl, epoxyalkyl, epoxyalkyloxy, epoxyalkyloxyalkyl, tetrahydrofuryl or fluoroalkyl; and R.sup.5 is alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, the improvement which comprises using as a curing catalyst at least one alkali metal salt selected from the group consisting of
(A) alkali metal salts of thio-acids, dithio-acids and their derivatives represented by the formula: ##STR7## wherein X is --NR.sup.1 R.sup.2 or R.sup.3 ; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, benzyl or allyl; R.sup.3 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, phenyl, benzyl or alkoxy having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; Y is oxygen or sulfur; and M is lithium, sodium or potassium;
