Increasing the endcap level to a level greater than about 90% for Optical Quality (OQ) Melt Polycarbonate significantly reduces the as-molded static charge for injection molded parts for Optical Disc applications. The use of resins with higher endcap levels in combination with antistatic additives provides a highly robust formulation suitable for even the most demanding emerging formats as Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) and in all commercial Optical media molding machines. Thus, optical quality polycarbonates are prepared by performing a base-catalyzed polymerization of a diaryl carbonate and a dihydric phenol under conditions effective to produce a polycarbonate product having an endcap level of 90% or greater.

The present invention provides a composition comprising polycarbonate wherein the polycarbonate has a very low Fries content (e.g., above 5 ppm and below 360 ppm). The present invention also provides a polycarbonate having a very low Fries content which is made by the melt process. This polycarbonate has high ductility and high impact strength. The invention also provides a method for making these compositions. Another aspect of the invention is an optical disk comprising polycarbonate having a very low Fries content which is made by the melt process. Such optical disks resist breakage due to bending.

Benzoxazolyl brightner compounds and thermoplastic combinations containing such are provided herein. The thermoplastic compositions comprise a thermoplastic resin, a phosphite heat stabilizer present in reduced levels, a brightner present in reduced levels and a pigment. Preferably the thermoplastic resin composition is transparent in nature. The compositions are useful for making molded and blow molded articles which require high levels of transparency, for example, glazing materials such thermoplastic windows. The composition exhibits enhanced appearance, namely a bright natural color in combination with low levels of yellowness by utilizing in combination reduced levels of phosphite and reduced levels of brightner, with moderate levels of pigment.

The invention relates to a method of preparing aromatic polycarbonates by catalytic interface polymerization of at least one bivalent phenol and a carbonyl halide in the presence of a polycondensation catalyst, which method is characterized in that the conversion is carried out in a two-phase system with continuous dosing of the carbonyl halide, which two-phase system is based on water and an organic solvent, in which the quantity of organic solvent at the beginning of the polycondensation lies between 10% and 75% of the quantity of organic solvent which is required at the polymerization temperature for dissolving the quantity of polycarbonate which may be formed from the quantity of bivalent phenol which is present at the beginning of the polycondensation, in that after dosing at least 20% of the carbonyl halide a remaining quantity of organic solvent is added which is at least sufficient to keep the formed polycarbonate in solution.
