THERMOPLASTIC POLYCARBONATE COPOLYMER COMPOSITIONS, METHODS OF THEIR MANUFACTURE, AND USES THEREOF

摘要

This disclosure relates to thermoplastic compositions comprising a polycarbonate copolymer, the polycarbonate copolymer comprising first repeating carbonate units and second repeating units selected from carbonate units that are different from the first carbonate units, polysiloxane units, and a combination comprising at least one of the foregoing unit; and an organophosphorus flame retardant in an amount effective to provide 0.1 to 1.0 wt% phosphorus based on the total weight of the composition, wherein an article molded from the composition has a smoke density after 4 minutes (Ds-4) of less than or equal to 600 determined according to ISO 5659-2 on a 3 mm thick plaque, and a material heat release of less than or equal to 160 kW/m2 determined according to ISO 5660-1 on a 3 mm thick plaque.
