A slide fastener having a split arrester for preventing a pair of interengaged fastener stringers S from accidental splitting when a slider is removed. The split arrester comprises interlocking male and female members mounted on a pair of fastener stringers contiguously to the respective terminal portions of opposed coupling element rows and substantially equal in thickness and width of the coupling elements E. The male member has a locking tongue portion projecting from an attachment base portion toward the female member and terminated in a protuberance. The female member has a locking hollow portion, for receiving the locking tongue portion and having a pair of resilient catch portions for gripping the neck of the protuberance from opposite sides in the direction of thickness of the fastener tape.

Slide fastener

Disclosed are a phosphorescent synthetic resin material capable of absorbing and accumulating light therein in the light and phosphorescing in the dark, a method for the production of the material, and a formed article or molded article made of the phosphorescent synthetic resin material. The phosphorescent synthetic resin material having a phosphorescent pigment, SrAl.sub.2 O.sub.4, uniformly dispersed in the synthetic resin is obtained by mixing the synthetic resin with the phosphorescent pigment and an activator and kneading the resultant mixture at a temperature 10 to 20.degree. C. higher than the melting point of the synthetic resin. In a preferred embodiment, the resultant compound is extruded at a temperature 10.degree. to 20.degree. C. higher than the melting point of the synthetic resin under an extrusion pressure in the range of 50 to 130 kg/cm.sup.2 and the extruded strands are chopped to produce pellets. By injection molding or extrusion molding the produced pellets into a desired shape, the formed article of synthetic resin possessing outstanding phosphorescent properties is obtained.
