Novel methods and compositions for improving the flame retardant capabilities of aromatic-based polymers like polycarbonate are disclosed. Other important polymer properties are substantially maintained, such as transparency. One aspect of the invention is directed to a flame retardance additive which comprises a copolymer of an aryl-containing silicone compound and a diorganic polysiloxane compound. In some preferred embodiments, the aryl-containing silicone compound is triphenyl- or diphenyl-based. This invention is also directed to new polymer compositions, which comprise an aromatic-based polymer and the flame retardance additive described above. The polymer compositions can be molded into a variety of articles which have a very useful combination of properties.

摘要:
Silicone-containing copolycarbonates possessing relatively long siloxane chains and yet having low haze values and hence transparency are prepared by reacting a siloxane bischloroformate with a hydroxy-terminated polycarbonate oligomer to afford a silicone-containing polycarbonate intermediate which is then reacted with a bisphenol, phosgene and a chainstopper under interfacial reaction conditions to afford a product silicone-containing copolycarbonate. The product silicone-containing copolycarbonates have lower haze values than similarly constituted copolycarbonates prepared by other methods.
