Optical lens
First Claim
1. An optical lens comprising a molded body made of a molding material containing a transparent polyamide cross-linked through irradiation with radioactive rays and a stabilizer,said optical lens having total light transmittance of at least 60% when said molded body has a thickness of 2 mm, and having total light transmittance of at least 50% after said molded body maintained at 80°
- C. is irradiated with light in an amount of 1000 W/m2 for 500 hours by using a xenon lamp,said transparent polyamide is composed of a condensation polymer of 1,10-decanedicarboxylic acid and 3,3′
-dimethyl-4,4′
-diaminodicyclohexylmethane,a blend ratio of said stabilizer being 0.01 to 0.21 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight said transparent polyamide, andsaid stabilizer including 2-methyl-6-ethyl-hydroquinone.

Abstract
An optical lens made of resin, which includes a molded body made of a molding material containing a transparent polyamide such as polyamide 12 and a stabilizer, which has total light transmittance of at least 60% when the molded body has a thickness of 2 mm, and has total light transmittance of at least 50% after the molded body maintained at 80° C. was irradiated with light in an amount of 1000 W/m2 for 500 hours by using a xenon lamp, which is lightweight, highly transparent, and resistant to discoloration, deformation, aging, and the like due to irradiation with light emitted from a xenon lamp, a blue-violet laser or the like serving as a light source, and which is suitable for use in a light emitting device of a flash lamp and the like, is provided.
