OPTICAL ARTICLES COMPRISING ISOSORBIDE POLYESTERS AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME

摘要

An optical article made of a transparent polymer which includes terephthaloyl moieties, optionally, other aromatic diacid moieties; ethylene glycol moieties; isosorbide moieties; and, optionally, one or more other diol moieties, wherein the polymer has an inherent viscosity of at least about 0.35 dL/g as measured on a 1% solution (weight/volume) in o-chlorophenol at 25 °C.
