PROCESS FOR PREPARING LINEAR POLYCARBONATE WITH IMPROVED IMPACT PROPERTIES

摘要

The present invention relates to an improved process for preparing linear polycarbonates having an improved technique for adding a coupling catalyst compound, specifically the addition of the coupling catalyst at two or more separate, different points in the process. Linear polycarbonate resins prepared by said process demonstrate a lower level of polycarbonate oligomers and an improved balance of properties, in particular improved impact strength and lower ductile brittle transition temperature.
