    Abstract: In an embodiment, a composition comprises a poly(ester-carbonate-siloxane) copolymer; a nanosilica; a plurality of polysiloxane particles; and a fluoropolymer. The nanosilica can be present in an amount of 1 to 5 wt % based on a total weight of the composition. The nanosilica can have a D50 particle size by volume of 5 to 50 nanometers. The nanosilica can have a hydrophobic coating. The plurality of polysiloxane particles can be present in an amount of 1 to 10 wt % based on a total weight of the composition. The plurality of polysiloxane particles can have a D50 particle size by volume of 0.1 to 10 micrometers. The fluoropolymer can be present in an amount of 0.005 to 5 wt % based on a total weight of the composition.

    Abstract: Provided are pre-dynamically cross-linked compositions including a networking additive including a flame retardant species. Specifically, such compositions include a polymer component including a pre-dynamic cross-linked polymer composition. The pre-dynamic polymer composition includes polyester component chains joined by a coupler component, the coupler component including a flame retardant species. A method of preparing a dynamic cross-linked polymer composition includes: reacting a coupler component including at least two reactive groups and a flame retardant species with a chain component including a polyester. The reacting is performed under such conditions so as to form a pre-dynamic cross-linked composition, and is performed in the presence of at least one catalyst that promotes formation of the pre-dynamic cross-linked composition. The pre-dynamic cross-linked composition, when subjected to a curing process, exhibits certain plateau modulus characteristics and has the capability of relaxing internal residual stresses.
