ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to methacrylic polymer compositions which may be used to form plastic products which have increased resistance to discoloration by sterilizing radiation, such as gamma or electron beam irradiation. The compositions, free from conventional ultraviolet stabilizers, contain .alpha.-hydroxyacids or esters thereof.
