A transparent resin substrate composed of a light-transmitting resin base sheet, and an underlying layer, a hard coat layer, and an antireflection coating formed sequentially on the base sheet. The antireflection coating includes a medium refractive index layer on the hard coat layer, and a low refractive index layer on the medium refractive index layer. The underlying layer is a cured product of a hexa- or higher functional urethane acrylate monomer. The hard coat layer is a cured product of a hard coat layer composition containing a polymerizable monomer containing 50% by mass or more of a tri- or lower functional urethane acrylate monomer, silica particles, a silane coupling agent, and a metal chelate compound. The medium refractive index layer is a cured product of a medium refractive index layer composition. The low refractive index layer is a particle-free cured product of a low refractive index layer composition.

This invention relates to a a one-step process for making a polymer composite suspension for coating plastic films characterized in that a first polymer is synthesized in-situ optionally in the presence of other polymers and in the presence of clay. Preferably the polymer composite suspension comprises a) 1.0 to 11.0 wt % of clay or silane modified clay, b) 0.1 to 10.0 wt % of poly (acrylic acid), which is a copolymer of acrylic acid (AA) with at least one other monomer selected from 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (ERA), β-carboxyethyl acrylate (β-CEA), methacrylamidoethyl ethylene urea (WAM II) and ethoxylated behenyl methacrylate (β-EHA), c) 1.0 to 15.0 wt % of other polymers, preferably poly (vinyl alcohol) and d) 70 to 97 wt % of water or mixture of water with 2-propanol. The coating films made from the suspensions show good barrier capabilities against water vapor and oxygen can be used to make barrier layers on or within plastic films for packaging applications. The invention also relates to methods for making silane modified clay usable in the process for making the suspensions.
