  • Patent number: 8796365
    Abstract: The invention relates to thermoplastic molding compositions comprising (A) from 34 to 99.99% by weight of at least one thermoplastic polymer selected from (i) polyarylene ethers, (ii) polyetherimides, (iii) polyarylene sulfides, and (iv) polycarbonates with glass transition temperature of at least 145° C., or else copolymers of the abovementioned polymers (i) to (iv), (B) from 0.01 to 10% by weight of at least one organic black pigment which is transparent in the range from 1000 nm to 1600 nm and which has thermal stability up to at least 300° C. to DIN EN 12877-1, (C) from 0 to 6% by weight of at least one mold-release agent selected from fatty acids, or from esters and amides, (D) from 0 to 50% by weight of one or more additives, where the total of the % by weight figures from (A), (B), (C) and (D) gives 100% by weight. The invention further relates to a process for preparation of the thermoplastic molding compositions, and to the moldings obtainable therefrom.
