Abstract

A composition useful for molding into articles such as food containers, soft drink bottles, cured structural plastics and the like, comprising molding or fiber grade linear or unsaturated polyester or polycarbonate having copolymerized therein a total of from 1.0 to about 5,000 ppm, of the residue of one or a mixture of methine reactants of the formula ##STR1## wherein A is an unsubstituted or substituted 2-furanyl, 2-thienyl or 3-thienyl radical;R1 is hydrogen or a unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl radical; andR2 is hydrogen or an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aryl radical.The methine residues are present in the polymer as an integral part of the polymer chain and absorb ultraviolet radiation in the range of about 150 to about 390 nm. The residues are non-extractable from the polymer and stable at the conditions at which the polymers are manufactured and processed.
