Abstract: An armature for an illuminant can comprise: walls formed by an armature composition. The armature composition can comprise an armature polymer, 10 wt % to 20 wt % coated titanium dioxide, and greater than zero to 0.001 wt % carbon black, wherein the weight percentages are based upon a total weight of the armature composition. The armature polymer can comprise polycarbonate. At a thickness of greater than or equal to 3 mm, the armature has a reflection at 700 nm of greater than or equal to 93%. A light fixture can comprise a light source in the armature.

Abstract: Disclosed are resinous compositions comprising a colorant combination comprising at least one inorganic infrared reflecting pigment and at least one organic colorant, wherein the combination of inorganic pigment and organic colorant results in a molded part with an L* value of less than about 30 with specular component included, and a heating build-up (HBU) as measured according to ASTM D4803-89 of less than about 34° C. A method to make such compositions is also an embodiment of the invention as are articles made from such compositions.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions comprising: (i) a rubber modified thermoplastic resin comprising a discontinuous elastomeric phase dispersed in a rigid thermoplastic phase, wherein the elastomeric phase comprises a polymer having structural units derived from at least one (C1-C12)alkyl(meth)acrylate monomer; and wherein the rigid thermoplastic phase comprises structural units derived from at least one vinyl aromatic monomer and at least one monoethylenically unsaturated nitrile monomer; and (ii) a colorant combination comprising at least one inorganic infrared reflecting pigment and at least one organic colorant, wherein the combination of the inorganic pigment and organic colorant results in a molded part with an L* value of less than about 30 with specular component included, and a heating build-up (HBU) as measured according to ASTM D4803-89 of less than about 34° C. A method to make such compositions is also an embodiment of the invention as are articles made from such compositions.
