Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain optical disks with high transparency, heat resistance, humidity-proofness and impact resistance as well as with minimized retardation and excellent optical homogeneity by using polycarbonate resin which consists of specific repetitive units and has a softening point within a specific temperature range as a base. CONSTITUTION:The optical disk consists of polycarbonate resin which is composed of repetitive units as shown by a formula (I) and has a softening point within a temperature range of 150-300 deg.C as a base. R1, R2 are an alkyl group (CnH2n+1:n=3-13) or a cyclohexyl group or a bicyclohexyl group. Therefore, the optical disk obtained is highly transparent, heat-resistant and humidity-proof. In addition, it has minimized retardation, superior optical homogeneity and high information reading sensitivity. If the softening point of polycarbonate resin is not higher than 150 deg.C, the optical disk becomes warped or twisted easily by heat and if the softening point exceeds 300 deg.C, it is extremely difficult to form the optical disk using the resin.
