Abstract

There is disclosed an optical information record medium having an optical information record layer on a transparent substrate, in which the transparent substrate is made of a resin material mainly consisting of a polycarbonate resin that contains no more than 4 wt % of low molecular weight fractions having a weight average measured with respect to a polystyrene molecular weight of no more than 3500, in order to avoid a double refraction of an optical information record medium resulting in an improved signal to noise ratio and having superior thermal-transformation resistance and impact resistance.
