摘要:
A method for end capping polycarbonate resins, comprising the step of processing a mixture comprising a polycarbonate having free hydroxyl-end groups and an end-capping reagent in a melt transesterification reaction to produce a polycarbonate resin, wherein the end-capping reagent comprises a mixture of: (a) at least one species of a symmetrical activated aromatic carbonate, and (b)at least one species of an optionally-substituted phenol, whereby said end-capping reagent reacts with at least some of the free hydroxyl end-groups of the polycarbonate to produce an end-capped polycarbonate resin.
摘要:
A process for the production of polycarbonate having increased end-cap levels, the process comprising adding a terminal blocking agent of formula (I), wherein R1 is a propoxy or butoxy and R2 is selected from the group consisting of C1-C30 alkyl, C1-C30 alkoxy, C6-C30 aryl, C7-C30 aralkyl, and C6-C30 aryloxy.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the production of a branched polycarbonate composition, having increased melt strength, by late addition of branch-inducing catalysts to the polycarbonate oligomer in a melt polycondensation process. Surprisingly, it has been found that by adding branch-inducing catalysts, such as alkali metal compounds and/ or alkaline earth metal compounds, to the melt polycarbonate oligomer at a later stage of the melt polycondensation process, preferably after the oligomer has reached an average molecular weight of between about 3,000 and 30,000 g/mole, a unique branched polycarbonate composition is formed that has improved properties. It is believed that the addition of the branch-inducing catalysts at the later stages of the process produces a branched polycarbonate composition having longer chains between the branching points, and thus a new composition is produced. The invention also relates to various applications of the branched polycarbonate composition.

In various embodiments the present invention comprises 2,4,6-trisubstituted-1,3,5-triazine capping agents comprising one, two, or three leaving groups as substituents with any remaining substituents being essentially inert to reaction with a nucleophilic group on a polymer or monomer, or reactive with a nucleophilic group on a polymer or monomer at a slower rate than any leaving group. The invention also comprises polymers or monomers with nucleophilic groups capped with a triazine moiety. Still other embodiments of the invention comprise processes for capping nucleophilic groups in a polymer or monomer which comprises combining and reacting the polymer or monomer with a triazine-comprising capping agent.
摘要:
A process for the production of a branched aromatic polycarbonate that includes adding a branching agent to a polycarbonate oligomer, and producing a branched aromatic polycarbonate having a melt index ratio greater than an aromatic polycarbonate produced from the polycarbonate oligomer without the addition of the branching agent. The branching agent has the formula (I): AGy wherein A is a C1-20 polymethylene, C2-20 alkylene or alkylidene, C5-36 cycloalkylene or cycloalkylidene, C6-36 arylene or alkylarylene, or C6-36 arylalkylene, wherein G is a monovalent C6-C30 hydrocarbon having at least one hydroxyl group bonded directly to an aromatic or cycloaliphatic ring and y is an integer greater than 2, and wherein each G may be the same or different.
