Abstract
The invention relates to thermoplastic polycarbonate molding compositions comprising a polycarbonate resin and a stabilizing agent conforming to ##STR1## where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 independently are ##STR2## R.sub.3 is a hydrogen atom, a branched or linear C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 alkyl or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.20 cycloalkyl, and R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 independently are a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl, x is an integer of about 1 to 70, PA1 y is an integer of about 0 to 70, PA1 R.sub.4 is C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 alkyl or cycloalkyl, C.sub.6 -C.sub.10 aryl or C.sub.7 -C.sub.20 alkylaryl or cycloalkylaryl. The agent is homogenically distributed throughout the resin and is present in an amount sufficient to improve the gamma radiation resistance of the composition.
