Abstract

Abstract In an optical recording disk wherein a resin layer cured with ultraviolet radiation is provided on a surface of a transparent substrate, the present invention consists in that a material having a heat distortion temperature of at least 65 DEG C. is employed for the ultraviolet-cured resin layer. The appearance of wrinkles on a UV-cured resin surface is suppressed, whereby an optical recording disk of high carrier-to-noise ratio and long lifetime can be provided.
