Abstract

Described is a photochromic composition which is a polymerizate of acrylate monomer(s), a crosslinking amount of anhydrous acrylic anhydride and/or anhydrous methacrylate anhydride and a photochromic amount of pyrido benzoxazine. Depending on the amount of crosslinking agents and the other components selected to form the polymerizate, the polymerizate will exhibit improved temperature stability with regard to photocolorability and/or prevention of activation in sunlight.
