Abstract
The invention relates to thermoplastic polycarbonate molding compositions which are rendered resistant to gamma-radiation by incorporating therewith about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight of a stabilizing agent conforming to ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 denotes a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, R.sub.2 denotes a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.30 alkyl or acyl radical, silyl or pyranyl where said alkyl and acyl radicals may be either branched or linear, n is an integer of from 0 to 70, p is 0 or 1 and m is 1 to 4.
