摘要:
A polycarbonate blend composition with a good balance of high impact resistance, moldability, and controllable gloss with reduced tendencies of pearlescence or delamination in molded articles is prepared by admixing with polycarbonate a substantially linear ethylene polymer or linear ethylene polymer, an olefinic epoxide-containing copolymer, and a polyester.

Disclosed is a carbonate polymer composition comprising (a) a carbonate polymer having a weight average molecular weight of from about 20,000 to about 40,000 and (b) from greater than about 0.1 to less than about 1.0 weight percent (based on carbonate polymer composition weight) low volatility aromatic phosphate ester compound, and optionally (c) from about 0.001 to about 0.1 weight percent (based on carbonate polymer compositions weight) of an alkali metal salt having a pH of at least about 7. Preferably the low volatility aromatic phosphate ester is selected from the group of aromatic phosphate ester oligomer compounds or haloaryl phosphate compounds. It has been found to be preferable to use a low volatility aromatic phosphate ester which experiences a weight loss of no more than 5 weight percent at 250.degree. C. when heated to a temperature of 500.degree. C. in a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at a heating rate of 20.degree. C. per minute, more preferably no more than 40 percent at 300.degree. C. It has been found that these compositions surprisingly achieve the Underwriters Laboratory (UL-94) V-2 rating without significantly sacrificing the otherwise good combinations of properties of carbonate polymer resins.

A carbonate polymer composition comprising a carbonate polymer such as a bisphenol-A homopolycarbonate which carbonate polymer contains an amount of a salt represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein Ar is an aromatic group, R is a monovalent organic moiety, or Ar and R collectively are a divalent aromatic moiety M is a cation, and n is a number corresponding to the valence of M and an amount of a free aromatic sulfimide, which carbonate polymer composition resists combustion upon exposure to an ignition source, exhibits good optical properties, and exhibits molecular weight stability. Optionally, a halogenated organic compound may be added to the composition.

摘要:
A process for dispersing one or more powdered ignition resistant or flame retardant additives into carbonate polymers which comprises the steps of preparing a base concentrate having about 5 to about 50 weight per cent of said additives by blending said additives with a carbonate polymer having a melt flow rate from about 3 to about 20, pelletizing said base concentrate having said ignition resistant additive dispersed therein, dry blending said concentrate pellets with carbonate pellets having a melt flow rate from about 1 to about 80 whereby said polymer/concentrate blend has an amount of said additive dispersed therein effective to render said blend ignition resistant, and pelletizing or molding said carbonate polymer/concentrate blend. The use of this method gives ignition resistant carbonate polymers with improved impact properties as measured by Izod impact tests.

摘要:
According to the present invention there are obtained improved ignition resistant carbonate polymer blends having unexpectedly better combinations of toughness, ignition resistance, processability and stability. In particular the blend comprises a major amount of carbonate polymer, a minor amount of a rubber-modified monovinylidene aromatic copolymer, and an optional rubbery core/shell graft copolymer impact modifier. As ignition resistance additives the blends contain a metal salt of an aromatic sulfur compound, a buffering aromatic sulfur compound, an organophosphorus compound, and a tetrafluoroethylene polymer.
