Abstract:
Polycarbonate blend compositions are disclosed. The compositions include at least one polycarbonate useful for high heat applications. The compositions include at least one poly(aliphatic ester)-polycarbonate. The compositions can include one or more additional polymers. The compositions can include one or more additives. The compositions can be used to prepare articles of manufacture, and in particular, automotive bezels.
Abstract:
A thermoplastic composition comprises, based on the total weight of the polymers in the thermoplastic composition, a polycarbonatesiloxane-arylate; 2 to 15 wt % or 2 to 8 wt % or 1 to 4 wt % of a core-shell impact modifier; a flame retardant comprising a bromine-containing polymer or oligomer effective to provide 1.5 wt % to 5 wt % of bromine; an aromatic organophosphorus compound, effective to provide 0.1 to 1 wt % of phosphorus, or a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing; and optionally 0 to 80 wt % or 0 to 60 wt % of a polyetherimide.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are blended thermoplastic compositions comprising at least one polycarbonate component, at least one polybutylene component, at least one polyester ether elastomer component, at least one poly(ethylene-co-ethylacrylate) component, at least one ethylene/alkyl acrylate/glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer component, and at least one glass fiber component. The thermal blended polycarbonate compositions can optionally further comprise a transesterification quenching agent and/or epoxy hydrostabilizer agent. The resulting compositions can be used in the manufacture of articles requiring materials that have high impact strength yet have very high stiffness, while retaining desired dielectric properties and are colorable from white to black.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a polymeric sheet, comprising: a foamed layer comprising a polymeric material, wherein the polymeric material has a Tg of greater than or equal to 100° C.; and wherein the sheet has a weight reduction of 10% to 60%, as compared to a solid sheet of the same geometry and size formed from the same polymeric material. The sheet, at the thickness of 1.0 mm, has a smoke density of less than or equal to 200 particles after four minutes of burning according to ASTM E662-06. The sheet is thermoformable.
