This invention provides a method for preparing polycarbonates, which utilizes polycondensation catalysts which are derivatized pyridyl triazinyl pyridyl macromolecules with the general formula Ax+y[(Triazinyl-Pyridyl)B¿y-?x], where A is certain alkali metals, B contains a charge balancing sulfonate, carboxylate, or phosphonate group. We have found that his new class of catalysts provide excellent polymerization rates for the preparation of Bisphenol A polycarbonate from the melt polymerization of diphenyl carbonate and Bisphenol A. Moreover, the catalysts of the invention were found to be very selective in substantially reducing the level of branching side reaction, i.e., formation of Fries product, normally associated with the melt polycarbonate process.

摘要:
The present invention provides a method for directly determining the concentration of a target species, such as Fries product, in a composition comprising aromatic carbonate chain units. In an exemplary embodiment, the method includes the steps of irradiating a portion of the composition with electromagnetic radiation at an excitation wavelength sufficient to cause the target species to emit a fluorescence spectrum; detecting at least a portion of the fluorescence spectrum; and determining the concentration of the target species form the fluorescence spectrum. In addition to detecting Fries product in formed polycarbonate materials, the method can also be utilized to directly determine the concentration of a target species in parallel polycarbonate reactor systems.
