IMPACT PERFORMANCE MODIFIED HIGH TRANSPARENT MELT POLYMERIZED POLYCARBONATE

摘要

Disclosed herein are articles formed from polycarbonate prepared according to a melt polymerization method. The disclosed articles may include a composition comprising a melt polycarbonate resin derived from diphenyl carbonate; and glycerol tristearate mixed with the melt polycarbonate resin. The resulting articles exhibit mechanical properties improving upon articles formed from polycarbonate prepared according to conventional melt polymerization processes and are comparable to the mechanical properties apparent in articles prepared from interfacial polycarbonate compositions. Methods of preparing the melt polycarbonate composition are further disclosed herein.
